The Grimoire

A guide to your wizard, its hoard and the rules behind the ritual. Start with the basics, then explore the mechanics in detail.

Before the Summoning

Mint a wizard, activate it by burning tokens, then choose a school. Its allocation depends on available trading fees and its weight relative to other active wizards. No trading fees means no new fee-funded allocation. There is no fixed APR or guaranteed return.

Individual asset picks and their change fees belong to the planned design. The current source implementation uses a shared basket for each school; it has not been verified against a production deployment. Asset menus below describe the intended design, not a verified list of assets available to purchase today.

The mechanism

Mana Wizards is a collection of 3,333 NFTs with individual on-chain hoards. The planned hourly ritual uses $[Redacted] trading fees to fund allocations. Delivery depends on collected fees, liquidity and successful execution.

1. $[Redacted] trades in a locked Uniswap V3 pool created by the Pons launchpad. Pons routes 70% of pool trading fees to the protocol as creator fees.
2. The keeper is intended to claim accrued fees hourly, in ETH and $[Redacted]. The splitter is designed to send 80% of each leg to the Ritual and 20% to gas and operations.
3. The current engine allocates the ETH leg across the selected school's configured basket. The planned routing uses ETH directly for coins and USDG for other supported assets. Individual picks are a planned feature. The token leg is credited to hoards without swapping; allocations use wisdom × circles.
4. Hoards live inside the NFT. Selling the wizard sells the hoard with it. Withdrawals carry no protocol fee; the holder pays only network gas.

Costs at a glance

Planned launch costs. Network gas is additional. Confirm the amount shown by your wallet before an action.

Circle upgrades are optional and have additional irreversible costs, listed below.

The Summoning

The mint. 3,333 wizards, one per wallet, at a fixed price paid in ETH. The price is announced before it opens, and it opens on this site, never on a launchpad.

• Guaranteed tier: holders of the snapshotted partner collections claim a numbered spot by signing a message. Cold wallets qualify through a delegate.xyz vault and never touch the site. The number of spots is shown live on the claim page.
• Whitelist draw: four rites on X, then your handle, quote link and wallet. Finishing the rites enters the draw; winners get a guaranteed mint spot and are announced on X before the Summoning opens.
• Reveal: every wizard wears pre-reveal art for 72 hours after mint, then reveals. The art order is fixed before mint under a published commitment.

Schools of magic

A school determines the category of assets a wizard collects. The current source implementation uses a shared basket per school. Individual selections belong to the planned design and are not implemented in the current engine.

• Chaos, Robinhood coins, swapped against ETH directly: CASHCAT, PONS, DELTA, INDEX, AI, TENDIES, HMM, YOLO, STONKBROKER, UP
• Arcane, indexes and treasuries, routed through USDG: SPY, QQQ, GLD, SGOV
• Technomancy, tokenized stocks, routed through USDG: NVDA, SPCX, RDDT, DJT, GME, COST, MSTR, AMZN, MU, MSFT, AAPL, TSLA, TSM, GOOGL, PLTR, NFLX, RBLX, INTC, DELL, MRNA, AMD, META
• Abjuration, penny stocks, routed through USDG, coming soon: WYFI, NNE, POET, TE, RCAT. Until their pools are deep enough to swap safely, Abjuration's hourly ETH is swapped to USDG and credited to the hoard as USDG.

A wizard without a school choice keeps its allocation in ETH. Asset availability and swap execution depend on configured pools and liquidity.

The engine validates school pools against configured venues and applies price-history and execution checks. Published contract evidence and a confirmed asset list are needed before launch; a ticker alone does not establish availability or ownership rights.

Changing school burns 2,500 $[Redacted] with a one day cooldown; already-conjured assets stay in the hoard. The planned individual-pick feature would be free for 24 hours after attuning, then cost 500 $[Redacted] with a six hour cooldown. This is not implemented yet.

Wisdom

• Base 1.0× at attunement; +0.1× every full 72 hours attuned; hard cap 3.0× after 60 days.
• De-attuning pauses wisdom. It never decays while attuned.
• Transfers halve accrued wisdom and put the wizard to sleep. Its base remains 1.0×; activation is required again.
• Visual stages every 0.5×: Apprentice → Adept → Mage → Sage → Archmage.
• The ten Archmage grails gain wisdom at 2× rate.

Circles

A second, permanent multiplier bought with sacrifice. Climb one circle at a time; every step burns one wizard and $[Redacted] together:

• Circle 1, 1.4×: 1 wizard + 75,000 $[Redacted].
• Circle 2, 1.9×: 1 wizard + 150,000 $[Redacted] (2 burned total).
• Circle 3, 2.5×: 1 wizard + 300,000 $[Redacted] (3 total).
• Circle 4, 3.5×: 1 wizard + 800,000 $[Redacted] (4 total).

Ritual weight is wisdom × circle, so a fully-grown Circle 4 wizard has 10.5× the allocation weight of a fresh one. This is a relative share of available fees, not a return multiplier. The circle is paid for: it survives transfers and never decays. Sacrificed wizards burn forever and shrink the 3,333 supply; they must be asleep with empty hoards and nothing pending, so no value ever burns with them. Grails cannot be sacrificed.

Transfers & withdrawals

The hoard travels with the NFT. Withdraw anything you want to keep before selling or transferring the wizard. A transfer puts the wizard to sleep and halves its accrued wisdom; the permanent circle remains. The new holder must activate it again to resume allocation.

Only the current holder can withdraw the hoard. The intended vault has no protocol withdrawal fee; network gas still applies. Read the transaction and destination in your wallet before confirming.

$[Redacted]

The following token terms describe the planned launch; they are not a confirmation of deployment.

• Fixed 1,000,000,000 supply, planned launch on the Pons active factory. LP locked, no migration.
• No emissions, no staking. The only $[Redacted] holders ever receive from the protocol is the fee share credited to attuned hoards; everything else burns.
• Burns: attunement (20,000), respec (2,500), circle ascensions (75,000 to 800,000), cosmetics. The mint itself is paid in ETH, not $[Redacted].
• Team: 5% bought in the creator-only launch block, sent straight to a public 6-month linear vesting contract. Disclosed before launch.

Contracts

Roles in the intended architecture. Verify the deployed implementation and published evidence before relying on these properties.

• WizardNFT: ERC-721, 5% EIP-2981 royalty, transfer hooks into the wisdom registry.
• HoardVault: per-token asset balances. No owner, no pause, no upgrade, no recovery. Withdraw only by the holder.
• Summoner: fixed-price mint paid in ETH, one per wallet, opens once.
• FeeSplitter: immutable 80/20.
• RitualKeeper: hourly claim → swap → credit. Open-source and permissionless to trigger.
• WisdomRegistry: attunement timestamps, halving logic, circle ladder and sacrifice burns.
