princes -- Demon rank ladder and hue seats (smoke court) How you play 1. Reach Tier 2 -- you are Prince (auto; court shows it) 2. Bank at least one soul (help soul ledger) 3. Stand at Mouth of Torment in Hell 4. claimhue <id> open or continue a contested claim 5. Stay in the hub until you seize the seat 6. court title, eyes, open seats, contests 7. court abandon drop the seat (hue only -- rank title stays) Rank auto-titles from Tier: T2 Prince, T3 Knight of Hell, T4 Hell's Apex. At Tier 2+ a Demon may also contest a unique smoke hue -- holding one personalizes your true-form eyes (one living Demon per hue; Echoes keep the seat while offline). A claimed hue is never lost by ranking up -- it escalates (see help dblink / help court) instead of being replaced by the higher rank's plain look. Cosmetics only for now -- smoke color, true-form eyes, room tells. Corruption Mastery still gates travel verbs. Keep training and your title keeps climbing on its own: Knight of Hell at Tier 3, Hell's Apex at Tier 4 -- no separate claim needed for those. v1 hues: pitch, crimson, sulfur, verdigris, bone. Usurp by opening a claim on an occupied hue and winning the lead. See also: help demon | help court | help grigori | help vessel
