TL;DR: The Castle Chamberlain is the management NPC inside a conquered castle. Use it to set the territory tax rate, hire siege guards, place teleports, buy clan buffs and run the Manor โ€” the two main income sources (taxes and Manor) that keep your clan treasury full.

Overview

The Castle Chamberlain is the NPC found inside a conquered castle. It lets you manage taxes, hire guards, set up teleports and buy defensive items. Only the owning clan leader and appointed officers can access its functions.

Management Functions

FunctionWhat it does
TaxesSet the territory tax rate (0โ€“15%). Tax is charged on teleports and trade at NPCs inside the castle zone, and the income flows into the clan treasury.
GuardsHire NPC guards to defend the castle during a siege. Types differ by role: archers on the walls, infantry at the gates, mages on the towers. Hiring cost scales with guard type and quantity.
TeleportsConfigure teleport points inside the castle for fast travel between key positions.
BuffsBuy clan buffs that apply to every clan member inside the castle.
Gates & trapsControl the castle gates and set traps to strengthen your defense.

Plan your hires before a castle siege โ€” guards and traps are most valuable when the assault actually starts.

Managing the Manor

Through the Castle Chamberlain the castle owner runs the Manor system: choose which seed types to sell to players, set buy and sell prices, and control production volume. Smart Manor management brings the clan a steady income.

Manor revenue and taxes are the main sources of Adena for the owning clan. Treasury funds are spent on hiring guards before a siege, paying castle upkeep, and buying items to grow the clan.
