The Violet Ledger

A guild progression and requisition system for the Magus Senate of Dalaran.

The Violet Ledger is a full-featured in-game management addon built exclusively for the Magus Senate of Dalaran on Moon Guard (US). It brings the guild's requisition board, commendation point tracking, division reputation system, and officer tools directly into WoW — no spreadsheets, no external tools, no Discord forms.

✦ Features

📋 Requisition Board

Post, claim, and complete RP tasks directly in-game. Officers review submitted summaries and approve completions to award points and reputation.

• Division tagging — Tag requisitions to Collegium, Vanguard, Conservatory, or Chancellery
• D20 mechanic — Optional dice system auto-detects /roll 20 results. Full reward on 15–20, half on 10–14, none on 1–9
• Co-authoring — Unlocked at Division Reputation Level 12
• Expiry dates — Expired requisitions are automatically flagged by the sync authority

🏅 Commendation Points

Per-character point tracking with promotion thresholds. When a character qualifies for promotion, officers are alerted in the Officer Panel.

Ranks above High Magocrat are filled by appointment only.

⚗️ Division Reputation

Three divisions — Collegium, Vanguard, and Conservatory — each with 20 reputation levels on a progressive curve (50 → 500 rep per level). Maximum of 4,800 rep per division.

• 15 title unlocks across all three divisions (at levels 5, 8, 12, 16, and 20)
• Access gates at levels 6, 12, and 18 unlock posting and co-authoring privileges
• The My Progress tab shows a full expandable breakdown of every level, title reward, and gate

👥 Guild Roster

A synced roster of every guild member running the addon. Click any character to open their full card: commendation points, division rep levels, notes, and (for officers) editing controls.

📢 Bulletin Board

Guild-wide announcement feed. Automated entries post for promotions, division recognition, and requisition completions. Officers can post and delete manual announcements.

⚔️ Officer Panel

Accessible to characters with officer permissions. Shows promotion-ready characters, pending RP completion reviews, and commendation recommendations awaiting approval.

💾 Backup & Restore

• Export/Import — Compressed, encoded backup strings for safekeeping or transfer
• Automatic snapshots — Up to 10 snapshots on logout, daily login, and after data changes
• Restore — Chancellor can restore from any snapshot or export string
• Data Wipe — Chancellor-initiated with a 60-second countdown; Councilors can cancel

⚙️ Guild Settings

The Chancellor can configure every permission in the addon by rank — from who can post requisitions to who can restore from backup — and settings sync guild-wide automatically.

🔄 Sync System

All guild members running the addon see the same live data through a distributed sync model:

• Authority election — The highest-ranking online officer (Chancellor › Councilor › Archmage) becomes the sync authority
• Delta broadcasting — All mutations are validated by the authority and broadcast as deltas
• Offline queuing — Members who come online receive queued updates from the authority
• Conflict resolution — Last-write-wins by version number
