World Leaders (WLs) are characters who have obtained epic levels as well as becoming influential in the game world in a large way. They are also players who have been a part of the Layonara community for a long time, most for several years. World Leaders are knowledgable about Layonara (in character and out) and serve as mentors for new characters and players as well as setting a standard for the role playing that is one of the core values of Layonara. World leaders have are also responsible to help players when they have issues and a GM is not on the server or available to help out and they have been given a few tools to allow them to do this.

  • XP Wand -All WL's have an XP wand that can be used to hand out XP to any character on the server. Please do not be bashful about its use as this will encourage characters to stay in character and to RP at all times. Use the wand and click on the target. This will reward them one hour of questing XP according to their level; this is the same chart that the GM Team uses when handing out questing XP. The use of the wand is tracked for abuse but please do not let this stop you from using the wand. The request is that no more than ten XP rewards be handed out by a single player within a given month and to not reward XP to a single character more than two times in a single month'within reason of course. You are able to target any character on the server, except for yourself, to give out rewards. Please do not abuse this system (but do not ignore it) as everything is tracked and an abuse will mean the loss of WL status.
  • Jump Wand -When a GM is not around a character is stuck on a cliff, behind a fence/wall or on rocks it can get frustrating for that player. Now players can contact world leaders and you can help them out. The WL should verify the circumstances of the stuck character, as the WL is ultimately responsible for the outcome. The player who needs rescuing should also get as close to the barrier or edge as possible and face the direction he/she needs to go. Use of this wand will be tracked, and any abuse or inappropriate use of the wand will be noted and may result in a loss of WL status. It is the GM Team's recommendation that the WL visually verifies the character's location before targeting them with the wand. If this is impossible or impractical (and we understand that is the case in many situations), a voice command is available that will work server-wide: "=c rescue charname". Partial character names will work.
  • PvP Wand -Character can now engage in PvP when it is WL (or GM) authorized. Using this wand, a WL or GM can authorize two or more characters to engage in PvP actions for a period of 5 RL minutes. Each character will get a message stating that they are cleared for PvP for 5 minutes, and after that 5 minute period, they will get another message stating that the time has elapsed. Use of this item is logged and tracked for potential abuse. A WL cannot authorize himself/herself for PvP; that requires the authorization of another WL or GM.
  • Ban Wand - It will now be possible for WLs and GMs to enact a temporary banning of a player in-game due to disruptive behavior, blatant rule violations or other undesireable actions. Banning a player in this manner will result in the player getting booted from the server, and will affect all characters held by that player. Use of this wand should be taken very, very seriously, and should not be done lightly. The WL must witness the incident in question and be able to provide supporting details in defense of his/her use of this wand on another player. A WL or GM who uses this wand MUST provide supporting details (screenshots and chat logs) within ONE hour of the incident. Failure to do so can result in a loss of WL privileges and status and/or banning. Use of this wand will be tracked, and any abuse or inappropriate use of the wand will be noted and may result in a loss of WL status and/or banning. All such bannings will be reviewed as soon as possible by the GM Team, upon which time the banning may or may not be reversed, depending on circumstances. There is also a voice command available to perform the same function: "=c ban playername" or "=c ban charname". Partial character names will work, but the user should be as specific as possible in case of similar names. If the player (Bioware login) name is used, the full player name is required, no partial matches.
