💜 SUPPORTING THE RAVENGUARD
Supporting THE RAVENGUARD is easy.
Every member offers a unique Channel Point Runestone. Collecting a Runestone earns Reputation Points (RP) for both you and the creator, helping them progress through the VRX while increasing your own standing within both the RAVENGUARD and VANDERHEIM communities.
Each member's unique Runestone can be acquired once every 7 days, encouraging supporters to return regularly, build their Runestone collection, and continue earning RP by supporting fellow RAVENGUARD members.
As the RP system grows, new ways to earn Reputation will continue to be introduced, rewarding ongoing participation and engagement throughout the wider VANDERHEIM ecosystem.
Before collecting your first Runestone, you'll need to forge your Shield.
Your Shield is your permanent identity within VANDERHEIM, allowing your Runestone collection, Reputation, Shield Tags, progression, leaderboards, and future rewards to be tracked across the entire ecosystem. This also encourages supporters to explore other RAVENGUARD communities ensuring the broader community grows as each member thrives individually.
Once forged, your Shield becomes your place within the village—and the foundation of your journey through both VANDERHEIM and the RAVENGUARD reward systems.
Every RAVENGUARD member carries a unique Runestone.
Support creators across the team, grow your collection, earn more RP, and strengthen your standing within the wider community. The more Runestones you collect, the more your journey through the VRX and VANDERHEIM grows alongside the creators you support.
Runestones are only the beginning.
As the VRX continues to evolve, additional ways to earn Reputation Points (RP) will be introduced through future community features, events, and engagement systems—creating even more opportunities to support your favourite creators while progressing your own standing within the community.
Whether you're looking to forge your Shield, discover new creators, or follow the latest RAVENGUARD activity, everything begins here.
🎓 ABOUT THE VRX ACADEMY (VRX-A)
The VRX Academy is the official pathway into the RAVENGUARD.
Open to creators throughout the VANDERHEIM community, the Academy exists to help streamers grow, collaborate, and become active members of the wider RAVENGUARD ecosystem. Whether you're just beginning your streaming journey or working towards earning your wings, the Academy provides a place to learn, participate, and build your standing within the VRX.
Unlike the RAVENGUARD, membership within the Academy is designed to be broadly accessible, giving creators the opportunity to become part of the wider community while developing their channels and demonstrating their commitment over time.
🛡️ HOW THE ACADEMY WORKS
Academy members will have access to standard VRX Academy Runestone, allowing supporters to generate Reputation Points (RP) in exactly the same way as the RAVENGUARD members.
This provides Academy creators with meaningful progression while giving supporters another way to participate in the wider ecosystem.
Like every other part of the VRX, the Academy is fully integrated with the Village Portal, allowing activity, progression, and engagement to contribute towards a creator's long-term standing. Academy members will also be able to update their bio in the Village Portal.
Membership within the RAVENGUARD is limited and carefully considered.
As positions become available, Academy members are reviewed using a combination of metrics including community participation, consistency, streaming activity, engagement, and their overall contribution to the wider VANDERHEIM ecosystem.
The Academy is more than a waiting room—it's where future members earn their wings.
