The Realms is an ecosystem with several studios launching focgs (fully onchain games).

The currency of the ecosystem is $Lords

It is available on L2 Starknet @avnu_fi

Duelonomics:

In @Pistols_gg, every new wallet receives a free starter pack of 2 duelists to get started.

Each duelist has 3,000 FAME, backed by 10 $LORDS. Those LORDS must come from somewhere: a pool seeded by us, then topped up from burned FAME (from duels).

This creates a pendulum between free duelists and games played, where the more games are played, the more free duelists can be minted.

If that pool is ever empty, no free duelists can be minted until it is replenished, which serves two purposes:

1. No duelist can exist without being backed by 10 LORDS. This preserves the hard peg between FAME & LORDS (no fractional reserve duelists here; our economy runs on THE LORDS STANDARD).

2. A safety valve. If we have a very large volume of free duelist mints versus games played, the free duelist pool will run dry. This puts a cap on certain attacks and other exploitative behavior.

It is literally true that in Pistols at Dawn, if you are playing for free, another duelist bled and died for you to have that privilege. So pour one out for those brave souls and fools who are in the dirt, so that you can have a chance to be. 🍻🎩
