Initiates (Rank 1) can:

• vote
• leave the guild

Members (Rank 2) can do the above, plus:

Heroes and Heroines (Rank 4) can do all the above, plus:

• exile lower-ranking members
• promote or demote lower-ranking members
• buy a guild hall
• forge and shatter alliances
• declare enemies
• make peace

There may be no more than two Rank 4 members in any guild at any given time.

Guildmasters and Guildmistresses (Rank 5) can do all of the above, plus:
