8.10 THE HOUSES OF THE UNDEAD
For information about buying a residential house, see HELP HOUSING.
The original Houses of the Undead were founded shortly after Abhorash
received his gift from Queen Belladona over a century ago. To some, the
Houses of the Undead are the greatest achievement of the Undead; they
stand as symbols of the Infinite, much like the timelessness of the
Undead. To others, the diversity of the Undead Houses in their
individual philosophies and organization rivals that of the mortal
guilds. Once founded, the Houses of the Undead cannot be destroyed,
though it is up to their leadership to ensure that they don't fall into
futility and a powerless future.
Much like a guild, the House has ranks that have various privileges
associated with them. Much like a clan, those privileges can be
customized completely to how the House functions. Houses of the Undead
have a Head to lead the organization, and can not only take the
Patronage of one of the Divine, but also align themselves with a City
and with the Consanguine Imperium.
Kelende in Delos can assist those who wish to pledge a House. One needs
only find her and ASK KELENDE PLEDGE <house>. If you decide that the
House is not for you, you need only QUIT <house>.
Two types of houses exist, Major and Minor. A Minor house will become a
Major house when they hit certain activity requirements. A Major house
will become a Minor house should their activity wane. Houses with little
or no activity will be removed from the list altogether. It is possible
for new houses to instantly become a Major house should they meet the
requirements.
