Players with **no own** representing Estate or Province can chose to **pledge** their loyalty to another Architect and become a **Representative**. &#x20;

Heroes who are pledged towards another Player will receive a standard buff depending on the Tribal region of the Player's representing Land. This buff can become stronger or change, if the owner choses to build and develop certain [**Buildings**](https://docs.pawtato.app/pawtato-land/gameplay/buildings) on the Land. At higher tiers, even multiple buffs can be provided.

A Representative will tribute any [**Influence**](https://docs.pawtato.app/pawtato-land/gameplay/land-nft/influence) his Heroes earn towards the representing Land of the Architect he pledged to. This gives Land owners an incentive to fight for Representatives by developing their buffs and/or promise other benefits.

Heroes, who belong to a **neutral** Player with **neither Pledge nor own representing Land**, gain the “Independent Spirit” buff, which boosts their Luck.
