Beginner's Guide to Wardenseed

Beginner's Guide to Wardenseed anchors the Wardenseed fundamentals cluster (article 15 of 110). Readers entering through guest sessions or wallet-linked identities use this guide to connect product vocabulary—Genesis Seeds, Wardenwood simulation, Base settlement—to verifiable contract and metadata surfaces before exploring the encyclopedia. Beginner's Guide to Wardenseed cross-links to Fundamentals cluster peers at /docs/beginners-guide-to-wardenseed and the Genesis encyclopedia index /seeds.

Beginner's Guide to Wardenseed

Entry Surfaces and Verification

Beginner's Guide to Wardenseed should be read alongside /getting-started, /how-it-works, and /you-need-to-know. Wardenseed separates guest play from wallet-linked settlement; documentation states where signatures are required.

When verifying Genesis Seeds, open encyclopedia profile /seeds/657 and compare displayed traits to the static JSON at /generated/seeds/metadata/657.json. Mismatches between UI and JSON indicate a caching or proxy issue—not a change to canonical metadata.

Technical Schema

The JSON below is generated from Wardenseed's canonical metadata builder for Genesis Seed #657—not placeholder copy. Attribute keys match what OpenSea, MetaMask, and Base indexers read from tokenURI resolution.

Compare name, image URL, external_url, and attributes against /ecosystem/contracts for the Seed NFT deployment on Base before any wallet signature.
