# King / Queen

The Kings & Queens are the second rarest NFT in the game, there will only ever be one of them per [region](https://paper.bastionlords.com/gameplay/world/region "mention") in every [world](https://paper.bastionlords.com/gameplay/world "mention"), and it'll only be available via Auction. They're the second strongest hero in the game, and offer their owner some very special perks.

Like the [emperors-and-empresses](https://paper.bastionlords.com/gameplay/rank/emperors-and-empresses "mention"), they will have the option to purchase the Region Capital assigned to them before anyone else! If they opt to not purchase their respective Region Capital, it will go to the open market.&#x20;
