Wrought by the ancients, the Gate is curiously unweathered, and serves as a portal to a world of mystery. Impenetrable and barred with [[Locks|golden locks]], the door can only be opened with the cooperation of 42 [[Wizards]] with [[Key of the 7th Realm|keys]] and [[magic]]. |

| The Gate to the Seventh Realm is a location within the [[Runiverse]] and implemented as a mechanic to introduce [[Forgotten Beasts]] (Season 1) into the Runiverse. It is notable for the first mechanic introduced to the cult that required [[Blockchain|on-chain]] collaboration between cult members, as well as requiring participation from specific [[traits]] within the collection. | | The presence of the [[Beasts]] within the world is catastrophic to devastating. While the Beasts' Masters exert a modicum of control over them from the material world, the seven Beasts wreak havoc in the Runiverse. |

| == Description ==
| | The Gate to the Seventh Realm is a towering isolated structure designed as an arched gateway with gilded detailing in the shape of half-circles on either side of the central stile. There are twenty one golden [[Locks]] on the faces bordering the gateway. The symbol of the [[Illuminatus]] sits atop the structure in a trio: a larger purple pyramid flanked on either side by two smaller ones. |

|
| == Implementation ==
| | The Gate to the Seventh Realm is located in the central region of the Runiverse. It is bordered on the west by the [[The Sacred Pillars|Sacred Pillars]], the southeast by [[Blue Wizard Bastion|Blue Wizard Bastion,]] and the south by [[Dream Master Lake]]. |
|

|
| === Mechanics === | | == Inhabitants == |
| On the 12th of April, the Gate of the Seventh Realm was introduced to the cult as a mechanic for releasing the Beasts into the Runiverse at the url https://forgottenrunes.com/beasts. There were three separate phases:
| |
|
| |
|
| ==== 🔐 Phase 1 Unlocking the Gate ==== | | == Settlements & Landmarks == |
| In phase 1, [[Wizards|Wizard]] and [[Souls|Soul]] holders had to collaborate to unlock all 21 locks on the Gate. Each lock required two Wizards (or Souls) held separately across two wallets to unlock; one with a [[Key of the Seventh Realm]] and one with a spell prop. Any of the two Wizards would be first in signing a message on the website and provided with a URL. This URL would then be shared with the owner of the second Wizard. The second Wizard submitted the first Wizard's address & the transaction (with gas) to the contract (''see [[#Solidity|Solidity]]'') which sent both addresses one [[Locks|Lock NFT]] marked with the type of spell used in its unlocking. The unlocking of all 21 locks resulted in the distribution of 42 Lock NFTs and proceeding to Phase 2.
| |
|
| |
|
| ==== 🦁 Phase 2 Beast Auctions ==== | | == Flora & Fauna == |
| In phase 2, seven Beasts were sequentially auctioned to anyone. Each auction was set on a twenty-four hour timer that could be extended for a further 15 minutes incrementally if the high bid was raised by 5 percent.
| |
|
| |
|
| ==== 🐣 Phase 3 Beast Spawn ==== | | == Forgotten Runiverse Game == |
| In phase 3, the Beast successfully auctioned off would be eligible for spawning. Once spawned, a random set of Wizard/Souls were granted eligibility to mint a Beast Spawn. There were a maximum of 42 Spawn per Beast and each Wizard or Soul could mint only one Spawn per Beast. The Spawn were eligible for claiming for 24 hours when announced. At the end of the time period, the eligibility list was recast and any Wizard or Soul on the new list would be permitted to mint any remaining unclaimed Spawn.
| | __FORCETOC__ |
| | |
| === Outcomes ===
| |
| The unlocking of the 21 locks took from Apr-12-2022 07:53:12 PM UTC to Apr-12-2022 07:54:25 PM UTC (approximately 73 seconds) and only 9 blocks (block [https://etherscan.io/txs?a=0xb1f1738cfb459f08f2f2fca8c5469ded57dbe4ed 14572781] to 14572789). 12 attempts failed due to various reasons: transaction reversion and gas insufficiency. Total gas used by successful cult members totaled 0.95922 eth (approximately USD 2,905). Unsuccessful gas used totaled 0.080214 eth (approximately USD 242.95).
| |
| | |
| The first Beast, [[Chaos Chimera]], was successfully auctioned for 45 eth (approximately USD 140,332.50) to [https://forgotten.market/address/0x24d7a9daf84a3f30b279b931a732f58c4eb0e52b collectibles.1of1.eth]. The initial bid began at 1.5 eth. The bidding process took 23 hours and 40 minutes across 12 bids from block 14572792 to block 14579031 and involved 9 separate wallets.
| |
| | |
| The second Beast, [[Bugbear Chieftain]], was successfully auctioned for 50.05 (approximately USD 151,239.09) eth to [https://forgotten.market/address/0x4d04eb67a2d1e01c71fad0366e0c200207a75487 jailwarden.eth].

| |
| | |
| The third Beast, [[Triple Crowned Cockatrice]], was successfully auctioned for 88.88 eth (approximately USD 270,302.74) to [https://forgotten.market/address/0x4463ce40ac9ccdb23fea887696e25b6861c05e56 aeiress.eth].

The initial bid began at 0.01 eth. The bidding process took 23 hours and 58 minutes across 13 bids from block 14592253 to block 14598705 and involved 10 separate wallets. This auction was notable for a large +40.23 eth (approximately USD 123,115.06) jump in bids.
| |
| | |
| The fifth Beast, [[Gigas Chad]], was successfully auctioned for 86.42069 eth (approximately USD 258,259.59) to [https://forgotten.market/address/0x7908a20be7f8ce24baa5c9cea46e3678c1ce3f4e 0x7908A20bE7f8cE24bAa5C9CEA46E3678c1ce3F4E]. The initial bid began at 2 eth. The bidding process took 24 hours and 34 minutes across 16 bids from block 14598753 to block 14605282 and involved 11 separate wallets.

The initial bid began at 0.3 eth. The bidding process took 23 hours and 25 minutes across 12 bids from block 14611748 to block 14618034 and involved 11 separate wallets. This auction was notable for an unusual bid raise on the prior high bid by the same bidder by a substantial amount (+50.69 eth, approximately USD 157,226.74).
| |
| | |
| The total time for all 7 auctions of Beasts (Season 1) was 170 hours 18 minutes, running from block [https://etherscan.io/tx/0x321d596a8b240c69c003a149c92e039d411e3388b4167a909522004496b0c1ed 14572792] to block [https://etherscan.io/tx/0x5c2f4dd795127b74fc7cf6f561a94a16914920380b3a931ea69bc3a31685e824 14618182].
| |
| | |
| The funds from the Beast auctions totaled 491.01069 eth (less gas). Fifty percent was retained by Magic Machine and fifty percent was sent to the House of Wizards DAO.
| |
| | |
| == Solidity ==
| |
| There were five contracts required to execute the unlocking of the Gate, auctioning the Beasts and permitting minting of Beast Spawn:
| |
| | |
| The contract to submit collaboration between two wizards: https://etherscan.io/address/0xb1f1738cfb459f08f2f2fca8c5469ded57dbe4ed#code
| |
| | |
| The contract to mint locks for successful wizards: https://etherscan.io/address/0xda5cf3a42ebacd2d8fcb53830b1025e01d37832d#code
| |
| | |
| The contract to bid on Beasts: https://etherscan.io/address/0x650ec141a2315b8aca9a661469514728b616275c#code
| |
| | |
| The contract to mint Beasts: https://etherscan.io/address/0x8634c23d5794ed177e9ffd55b22fdb80a505ab7b#code
| |
| | |
| The contract to mint Beast Spawn: https://etherscan.io/address/0x7de11a2d9e9727fa5ead3094e40211c5e9cf5857#code
| |
| | |
| === Controversies ===
| |
| It was possible to snoop the list of eligible wallets for Beast Spawn prior to the release of the list on the website. The method to do this was to interrogate the contract via Etherscan and perform the computations once the user realizes the seed for randomization was predictable. This did not obviate the randomness for wallet selection. Subsequent to this, cult members with the Solidity know-how assisted other cult members to check their eligibility for the current list and the forward list across the seven days of auctions.
| |
| | |
| === Commentary ===
| |
| Whilst it was possible for a single owner to own both a Wizard holding a Key to the Seventh Realm and another Wizard with the appropriate spell, and distribute them across both wallets, this only occurred with NNN locks.
| |
|
