-## Roles {#roles}
+# Roles {#roles}
 When the database is seeded, roles are derived from the values present in  [`~/config/roles.yml`](https://github.com/mastodon/mastodon/blob/main/config/roles.yml). 
 
 {{< page-ref page="entities/Role" >}}
 
 The resultant roles are `Owner`, `Admin`, and `Moderator`.
 
-A Role and its attributes can be created using the *Add role* button present on the `/admin/roles` page.

-### Add Role {#add-role}
+An existing role can be changed using the [edit role](#edit-role) feature.
+
+## Default roles {#default-roles}
+### Base role (*Default permissions*) {#default-base-role}
+
+Affects all users, including users without an assigned role.
+
+The only permission flag that can be altered for this role is **Invite Users**. Enabling this permission will allow all users to invite other users to the server.
+
+The base role has a priority of `0`, and this value cannot be altered.
+
+### Owner {#default-owner-role}
+
+A role that is assigned the **Administrator** permission flag, bypassing all permissions.
+
+The role's *Name*, *Badge color*, and *Display badge* attributes can be changed. No permissions can be edited / revoked from this role.
+
+The owner role has the highest [priority](#role-priority) of any role (`1000`). The owner can modify any other role attributes. No role can be created which supersedes the owner role, as [role priority](#role-priority) for new and existing roles must be <= `999`.
+
+### Admin {#default-admin-role}
+
+A role that is assigned all **Moderation** and **Administration** permission flags. 
+
+The **DevOps** permission flag for this role is disabled, but can be enabled by an **Owner** (or a custom role with a higher priority value).
+
+The role's *Name*, *Badge color*, and *Display badge* attributes can be changed.
+
+The admin role has a priority of `100`.
+
+### Moderator {#default-moderator-role}
+
+A role that is assigned certain **Moderation** permission flags. These include...
+- **View Dashboard**
+- **View Audit Log**
+- **Manage Users**
+- **Manage Reports**
+- **Manage Taxonomies**
+
+The role's *Name*, *Badge color*, and *Display badge* attributes can be changed.
+
+The moderator role has a priority of `10`.
+
+## Add Role {#add-role}
 
 The `admin/roles/new` page allows for the creation of a custom Role.
