So, I guess we ought to start working to build up what will become the Houses in the new system.

Basicly, once the system is in place we will all be commoners again. Then we start grouping together. Each group picks a leader, and the 3 largest groups will be given Great House status. Remaining groups will likely get Minor House status. Also some within houses will get Minor House status.

I'd like to avoid one man houses of any size. So any one man units will become commoners under the direct authority of the Kaiser, until they can be absorbed into a house of one status or the other. I myself will likely remain a commoner at large. I will not be granting myself any title. If a house wanted to court me to join them after my reign, I would possibly be receptive.

So, I guess go ahead and use this thread to start working to build houses, use PM, IM... what ever you want. But let's see what we can put together. I'll try to keep a running list of groups, and who's the largest.

----
House Kildare
-Jonas
-Andreas
-Jacobus Loki

House Tosha-Straylight
-Malliki Tosha
-Harvey Steffke
-Icebreaker
-Sancho/Strauss

House Kalirion
-Allot
-Aurangzeb Khan
-Daniel Llai
-Harald of Froyalan
-Ayrez
-Scott of Hyperborea

House Mortis
-Erik Mortis
-Shyriath

House Whitehorse/Yardistan
-Ryan
-Greg

I do hereby form the House of Hess-Müller

Any takers?

If a house wanted to court me to join them after my reign, I would possibly be receptive.

Weird... you said something else in your other post.


The Kildarians have always formed a loyal bunch of autocratic, history loving, local rulers who embrace the peasants in their heart. I hereby announce the establishment of the House of Kildare with myself and Andreas (see Kildarian forum) as first members!

I'm indecisive on what to do with myself. I WAS gonna join the Kildari... I was even gonna form House Mortis... but that didn't happen, I doubt I'd get enough people to do it.

House Kildare will rule the Empire!

It is possible.

I think we all know who's joining House Elwynn!

I'd still like confirmation. You never know, some others might join.

Allot, care to join the House of Dravot?

Kaiser Mors VI wrote:I'd still like confirmation. You never know, some others might join.

Care to join the House of Hess-Müller, Your Niftiness?

It's Commoner Class (Deputy-Latrine Attendant) for you I fear...

I'd join an Elwynnese house if it had a suitable name.

Lest it is then.

BLASPHEMY!

I thought all Dukes were going to be made into Major Houses? Or did that change somewhere and I overlook it?


Anyways, I will think up an appropriate Yardistani-named House. Something like House Annexis.

That's a good name, Ryan!

I'm giving people the option to move around, form up as they wish. We can only support 3 Major Houses or 3 Duchies.. so not all Duke's will make it through.

And CJMiller: No. I already said here, that during my reign I will not be joining a house.

I was even gonna form House Mortis... but that didn't happen, I doubt I'd get enough people to do it.

You know that I at least would've been tempted, right? I was a Mors once, after all...

At any rate, I'm guessing a House of Bukolos wouldn't be a huge hit, especially considering my tendency to wander off, so as things stand now I'm sort of waiting to see who else in Straylight is going to form up a House.

I form the House of Tosha.

Members:
Malliki Tosha, Big Giant Head of the House and Baron of Lakhesis
Harvey Steffke, Executive Assistant to the Big Giant Head

Shyriath, you wanna join?

Shyriath, if you don't end up doing anything with the Straylight crowd, I might be willing to make House Mortis as a Minor House.

Shyriath, if you join you will get the tentative House title of 'Secretary to the Executive Assistant to the Big Giant Head of the House of Tosha'. What other House can beat that?

Also. the houses I have so far.

House Kildare
-Jonas
-Andreas

House Tosha
-Malliki Tosha
-Harvey Steffke

House 'Elwynn'
-Allot
-Aurangzeb Khan
-Daniel Llai

House Mortis(?)
-Erik Mortis (?)
-Shyriath (?)

If two patrons/matrons marry, do the houses merge?

Sounds like they should.

I agree. I wants that provision!

I would say yes. We would have to figure that out. But it makes sense, they would merge into house. It would be a good way to consolidate power and influence. If two Minor Houses merged, they might even become large enough to gain Major House status... If they can convince the Kaiser they deserve it.

I wish to join the House of Mortis.

Confirming being in House Tosha.

House Mortis(?)
-Erik Mortis (?)
-Shyriath (?)
-CJMiller

I still don't know if I'll even make a House Mortis. It kinda depends on Shyriath...

Shyriath, with CJMiller being in the possible House Mortis, we open our arms wide for you.
