# Hero NFTs

To use your hero NFT, you will need to do a few things on the Pixel War website:

![Connecting Pixel War to Twitter and Discord](https://1690486595-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2F7GyQl2lKNUnBqXjjh28l%2Fuploads%2FRL8TBL3SQUdMUzJql8Uw%2FScreen%20Shot%202022-08-05%20at%2011.44.41%20AM.png?alt=media\&token=1f01d357-a877-4404-8be6-834f28b952ea)

### Connect to Discord:

1. Clicking **`Sign in with Discord`** will send you to Discord to authenticate.

### Connect to Twitter

Follow the same steps, but it will be a Twitter authorization screen.

### Set Default Hero

**IMPORTANT:** To set your default hero, that hero **must** claim its initial items. A naked hero cannot be set as a default hero (and therefore cannot be used on Discord.)

To select a default hero click on it and then sign the setting to confirm.

Your default hero will have a box around it:

Your default hero will be used for Twitter battles and when you[ import hero on discord](https://docs.pixelwar.com/discord/connect-your-hero-nft).
