the leaderboard · number one crawler
The crawler rankings whose top slot helps legally qualify Carl as Earth's de-facto leader.
Story so far
Rishi cites Carl's standing directly: the fact that he is a Warlord and the number one crawler on the leaderboard is what makes his claim to be Earth's native leader legitimate under Syndicate law.
Combined with the absence of any competing formal claim, that ranking let the naga petition a Syndicate court and have Carl declared De-Facto Leader of Earth — turning a game statistic into interstellar legal standing.
Role
The ranking that converts Carl's in-dungeon fame into legal authority over Earth.
Relationships
