What the house lends

The Letting

Warborn Blades did not buy its instruments. It built them, and filed on all three the same day. Another house may carry them under charter — the engine that turns a catalog into a campaign, the veil that keeps a supplier unnamed, and the seal that answers for a piece without betraying its forge. The terms are printed below. You will not be made to ask what a thing costs.

Patent pending — US Provisional Applications 64/126,132, 64/126,198, and 64/126,362, filed 5 August 2026; and US Patent Applications 19/779,891 (the Consent Governance Layer) and 19/779,893 (the Cartographer), filed 19 August 2026.

Every printed term below may be taken two ways: laid down by card here and now, sealed the same minute — or petitioned at the desk, if your house would rather have a contract and an invoice first. Both roads end at the same charter.

Where to stand

The ladder

Five rungs. A stranger may climb one at a time and stop wherever the bleeding stops. Nothing above is required to take anything below it, and every fee paid on a lower rung is credited upward within sixty days.

  1. First

    The Free Read

    No charge

    one page, once

    Any house that suspects it is bleeding and wants proof before it spends.

    • One live page read against all nine leak signatures
    • A score out of a hundred and the gravest finding named
    • No account, no card, no waiting
    Take the free read
  2. Second

    The Printed Reckoning

    $2,500

    one reckoning

    A house that has seen the score and needs the whole catalog read and written down.

    • Deep read of up to 5,000 listings, not one page
    • A sealed printed report, ranked grave to slight
    • A remediation manifest — the exact fix for each leak
    • Credited in full against any charter within sixty days
  3. Third

    The Standing Watch

    $950

    each month

    A house that sealed its leaks and means to keep them sealed.

    • Monthly re-reading of the same storefront
    • Notice the day new leakage appears
    • A running record of the score over time
  4. Fourth

    The Veiled Mark

    $12,000 – $40,000

    each year

    A house that wants its buyers to see that it is clean, not merely be told.

    • A scannable Warborn Veiled mark for your storefront
    • A public verification page, sealed under the Seal of Provenance
    • Continuous watch — the mark lapses the day the storefront leaks
    • Priced on catalog size within the printed band
  5. Fifth

    The Charter

    $6,000 – $180,000

    each year

    A house that wants the leaks not found but made impossible.

    • The Veil itself — concealment before a pixel reaches a browser
    • The March and the Seal, separately or under one Armory charter
    • Exclusivity available by trade category
    • A named engineer and a same-day answer at Crown terms

The Reading

The Veil Audit

Before terms, a reckoning. We read your storefront and print every place your supplier bleeds through.

One machine pass over a live catalog: image fingerprints, file naming, embedded metadata, feed remnants, and reverse-image exposure. You receive a printed report of every leak, ranked grave to slight, with the exact listing that carries it. The fee is credited in full against the first year of any Veil charter taken within sixty days.

US Provisional 64/126,198

A single reading

$2,500

one reckoning

You do not know what your competitors already know about your supply.

  • One storefront, up to 5,000 listings
  • Printed report, ranked by severity
  • Credited in full against a Veil charter within sixty days

The standing watch

$950

each month

A leak you sealed in March is back in June and nobody looked.

  • Monthly re-reading of the same storefront
  • Notice sent the day new leakage appears
  • Requires one full reading first

The Veil

Supplier-identity concealment

Your buyers see your house. Nobody sees who arms it.

Server-side transformation of every supplier plate — recomposition, metadata stripping, perceptual-hash displacement, and house-native naming — so a reverse-image search returns your listing and nothing upstream of it. Delivered as a hosted pipeline; your catalog points at it and the concealment happens before a pixel reaches a browser.

US Provisional 64/126,198

$6,000

each year

A small house bleeds the same way a great one does, and cannot yet pay a great house's price.

each year, per trade category

  • Named engineer and same-day answer

The Mark

The Veiled Mark

Not a promise that you are clean. A seal that says so, and lapses the day you are not.

The Veiled Mark marries the reading to the Seal: a storefront under continuous watch earns a scannable mark, and every scan resolves to a public verification page bearing the date of the last clean reading. It cannot be faked and it cannot be kept past its truth — new leakage pulls the mark down the same day it is found. Priced on the size of the catalog it answers for.

64/126,198 · 64/126,362

The Mark

$12,000

each year, up to 5,000 listings

You tell buyers your sourcing is protected and they have only your word for it.

  • Scannable mark and public verification page
  • Continuous watch included — no separate fee
  • Lapses automatically on new leakage

The Mark, at scale

$40,000

each year, unlimited listings

A large catalog with one bad corner still fails the whole mark.

  • Unlimited listings under one mark
  • Per-section marks so one bad corner does not fell the house
  • Your own verification domain

The March

Commerce-bound tactical engine

Your catalog becomes the arsenal of a war you can lose.

The March binds real inventory to a tactical field: each piece carries its true reach, weight, and form onto the board, victory is settled on a timed swing rather than a dice roll, and the Market's return current turns spoils into standing offers on the very steel that won them. Buyers do not browse. They campaign, and the campaign sells.

US Provisional 64/126,132

Field charter

$45,000

each year

Visitors read three lines of a description and leave.

  • Engine, Trial of the Blade, and the Market's return current
  • Your catalog bound to the field
  • Up to 250,000 trials a year

Sovereign charter

$120,000

each year

The engine sells, but it sells under someone else's name.

  • White-labelled to your house entirely
  • Unlimited trials
  • Your own arenas, roster art, and score

Exclusivity, added

+$150,000

each year, per trade category

The instrument is only remarkable while it is rare.

  • Added to either charter above
  • No rival in your category is let the engine for the term
  • First refusal on renewal

The Seal

Seal of Provenance

A buyer scans the seal and the house answers for the steel — without naming the forge.

A per-item cryptographic seal, tamper-evident and verifiable by any buyer, that proves a piece came through your house and has not been substituted, re-listed, or counterfeited — while revealing nothing about who forged it. This one is priced per piece, because that is what it protects.

US Provisional 64/126,362

Per sealed piece

$0.25

each piece sealed

A counterfeit carrying your name and you cannot disprove it.

  • Minimum $2,000 each month
  • Public verification page included
  • No setup fee

At volume

$0.10

each piece above 100,000 a year

Sealing everything costs more than the fraud did.

  • Tiered automatically — you are never billed the higher rate
  • Bulk sealing at ingestion
  • Your own verification domain

The Word

The Word-Bound Market

Any house can promise. This one costs coin to break, and the register says so in public.

A Word Bond is a promise with a stake behind it: printed terms, a claim window, and a public page any buyer can reach. Claims are lodged by strangers and ruled in the open, and every ruling moves a Word Score that no marketing department can touch. A house under bond is not asking to be believed — it is offering to be checked.

Patent pending — Warborn Engine

A single bond

$4,500

each year, per bond

Your guarantee reads exactly like the guarantee of the house that never honours one.

  • Claim intake, ruling bench, and public record
  • A scannable badge for your own storefront

House charter

$28,000

each year

One promise proves one thing. Buyers judge the whole house.

  • Up to ten standing bonds under one Word Score
  • Your own verification domain
  • Claim triage handled by the house before it reaches you

Crown charter — exclusive

$150,000

  • No rival in your category is let the instrument for the term
  • Named engineer, same-day answer, and escrowed stake handling

The Cartographer

Law-bound game authorship

A studio that cannot hold a Unity engineer can still ship a Unity build.

The Cartographer draws a game the way an architect draws a keep: design chapters, C# files, scene manifests and asset rolls, filed into a standing project tree and handed back as one buildable zip. It assays and mends its own code by rule, judges whether the built thing still fights the war it was commissioned for, and dispatches the tree to a real compiler — carrying the compiler's own faults home and mending them again. Judgement is separated from authorship by design: the eye that judges cannot write, and the forge that compiles cannot rule. It never re-proposes an idea you struck, and it cannot alter a rule you sealed.

US Patent Application 19/779,893 — patent pending

The Bench

$900

each month

Your design lives in documents nobody can build, and every prototype waits on a hire you cannot make.

  • One project tree, unlimited drawings and mends
  • Buildable Unity export on demand
  • Remote compile dispatch — you never open the editor

Studio charter

$3,600

each month

Two designers, three contractors, and no memory of why last month's decision was struck.

  • Up to five project trees and ten seats
  • Standing survey — the eye reports breaches, drifts and gaps each week
  • Your own compiler runners and private asset roll

Crown charter

$96,000

each year

You mean to ship a real title, and the tool cannot be the thing that stops you.

  • Unlimited trees, seats and compile dispatches
  • Named engineer and same-day answer
  • Sealed rules the agent is structurally unable to cross

The Whole Armory

All three, under one charter

The March to bring them, the Veil to keep them, the Seal to hold them.

The three instruments were built to stand together: the March draws the buyer, the Veil protects the margin that pays for them, and the Seal makes the sale unrepeatable by anyone else. Taken as one charter, the house lets all three below the sum of their parts.

64/126,132 · 64/126,198 · 64/126,362 · 19/779,891 · 19/779,893

The Armory charter

$195,000

each year

Three vendors, three invoices, three places to break.

  • March (Sovereign), Veil (House), and unlimited Seal
  • Roughly five percent below the separate charters
  • One contract, one renewal, one throat to choke
