Contribute a Founding Hero
How to Contribute a Founding Hero
Help your Forming guild become Established. Follow this illustrated guide to choose an eligible Hero, review custody terms, sign in Catena, and confirm your contribution on chain.
Adventurers,
Your guild is forming. Now bring its founding Heroes together.
If your guild is already Forming, you can complete its founding lineup directly on its existing guild page. Your members can contribute eligible Heroes individually, filling the remaining positions until the required lineup is confirmed.
The binding screenshots show a standard eight-Hero guild with simulated example data and illustrative fees. The wallet connection image shows the wallet selection interface. No real wallet was connected, and no transactions were signed or submitted to create these examples.
The required lineup
New guilds and other legacy guilds require:
- 1 Epic Hero
- 3 Rare Heroes
- 4 Uncommon Heroes
The original 100 Genesis guilds require 4 Uncommon Heroes only. Check the founding positions displayed on your guild page for its required lineup.
Each Hero must contain at least four base NFT parts of the required rarity. Bonus parts do not count, and Resonance does not replace this requirement.
Existing confirmed bindings of the required quality count toward the lineup. Heroes may come from one member or several members—you do not need a different holder for each position.
1. Open your guild
Open the Forming guild directory and select your guild.
Check Founding Heroes to see which positions are confirmed, pending, or still available. Complete the remaining positions shown for your guild.
2. Connect the contributing wallet
Click Connect Wallet, choose Catena Wallet, and use OP_CAT Mainnet with the wallet that owns the Hero.
That wallet must already be a member of the guild. If needed, complete Join Guild first. Joining a guild does not require owning or binding a Hero; founding contributions are optional.
Keep enough spendable funds in the wallet for transaction fees. If your Hero is listed on a marketplace, return it to your wallet before contributing.
3. Choose an eligible Hero
In Contribute a Founding Hero, select Choose a Hero to contribute.
Review your wallet's Heroes and select an available position using Select Epic Hero, Select Rare Hero, or Select Uncommon Hero. Positions already filled or reserved cannot accept another contribution.
4. Review the binding terms
Check the selected Hero, guild, rarity position, and fixed original owner. Read the custody terms before checking the confirmation box.
Binding places the Hero in guild custody. You cannot withdraw, transfer, sell, or replace a bound Hero. A retained binding also prevents its contributing wallet from leaving or switching guilds.
Guild leaders and members cannot dissolve the guild. Emergency dissolution and returns require the designated super administrator, and Heroes can only return to their recorded original owners.
5. Complete the wallet approvals
Select Sign authorization in Catena, then complete the two transaction reviews in order:
- Review the Guard transaction, check the confirmation box, and select Open Catena to sign transaction 1.
- Review the Transfer transaction, check the confirmation box, and select Open Catena to sign transaction 2.
Check the fees and details at each step. Both verified transactions are submitted after the second approval.
6. Wait for confirmation and complete the lineup
A submitted transaction is still pending. Each binding needs a block confirmation and successful verification before it counts toward establishment.
Use Refresh chain status to check progress. If submission is pending or uncertain, do not sign again while it is being checked. Your records remain available under My Bound Heroes. If the page offers Review and resume binding for an unfinished attempt, use it to continue that saved binding.
Repeat the process for the remaining positions. Once the full required lineup is confirmed and verified, your guild automatically becomes Established: four Uncommon Heroes for the original 100 Genesis guilds, or one Epic, three Rare, and four Uncommon Heroes for other guilds.
Gather your members. Complete your founding lineup. Establish your guild.
