LORE pays artists upfront for original characters. Our team builds the community and handles the launch. If your character's coin launches, you also get 45% of the creator fees it collects.

Launch through an integration
When the team is ready, the launch goes through an existing launch service.
No contests and no automatic launch for every submission. Humans decide.
What accepted artists are paid
Up to 10+ SOL for a single character.
Each approved concept gets paid. A reviewer picks an exact amount inside the tier and writes down why. Sending a portfolio doesn't create a payment obligation; only an approved concept with an accepted offer does.

Questions
Does every accepted character become a coin?
No. Acceptance means we pay for the concept and help you build around it. A launch only happens when the artist and team are ready and a launch integration is set up. Many characters may never launch, and none is promised to succeed.
Do I give up ownership of my character?
Your offer comes with written usage terms that say exactly what LORE may do with the artwork. You see them before you accept, and nothing is used until you do.
Can I use AI?
You must disclose any generative AI use. We review for evidence of human authorship, like sketches, layers or process recordings. Automated checks can only flag work for a human to look at; they never decide on their own.
Is there a token I can buy?
Not yet. The ecosystem token has not launched. If it ever does, the official contract address will appear on the token page only after it is configured and verified.
Who sees my email and wallet address?
Only you and authorized LORE staff. Public profiles show only what you choose to publish, and only after you consent.
