Your land works as it always has. Point being that they will not commit a crime against the Realm.

More explanation on this matter would be nice.

What is there to explain? Claims work as they always have, but Realm claims do not protect against crimes. I'm not sure I can be much clearer.

This is not a tax on the earner, but rather each point of experience earned within the Realm is also, additionally, added to the Realm's authority. It does not matter whether the earner is a member of the Realm or not.
jorb wrote: "From the Public Coffer": By drawing on the Public Coffers you can draw Experience Points from your Realm's Authority. You always gain 1000 Experience Points when using the ability, but the authority cost increases the more often the ability is used within the Realm. Over time the authority cost returns to normal. Cost: 2000 Authority, modified with increased use.
Those two worry me. Whats to stop someone from placing a charter stone on a nice spot in the mountain, and just spawn new characters off the stone and gain the immediate exp from the natural resources.
Better yet, whats to stop someone from just botting the entire thing.

Unless my understanding of the mechanics is wrong.

Most anything in the game can be botted, but the particular strategy may perhaps warrant some thought. Will consider.

That won't address alt accounts with one character each, unless perhaps you suggest a Prerequisite of experience needed to join the Realm. In retrospect this sounds better to me now that I think of it, but still just another fence easily jumped.

One way to counter it that should be effective, if somewhat ugly and ad-hoc, would perhaps be to simply not translate XP from experiences that are had for the first time on that character into authority.
