Er, am I a big doofus for not being able to figure out where to join? I've been directed to both Crystal Lane and the Great Tower, and there doesn't seem to be anything doing. This is in Plat, in case something has vanished. :)

Which ones are released now? I read a post from back in August, but I think there have been one or two released since then. (Although the ones I want to join probably haven't been released yet.)

I must like to make things hard for myself. Naturally, the ones I want to join (Gentle Lion, Rowan Branch, Waxen Moons, Ivory Scroll and Floating Reed) (did I mention I play more than one Elothean :))don't seem to be released yet.

Here's to RP!

Liarew has been out and about a bit - more than any other house leader lately - and will likely be making more outings again soonish (yeah, there's that word...). Both Nhia and I are aware that certain houses will need more of their leaders' active presence than others (though it's not like we want to ignore any!).

So as far as events go, you can at least expect to see the house leaders active. Bigger events - such as perhaps replacing some of the missing leaders (such as Rowan Branch, currently only with one leader instead of the triad, or Floating Reed, currently missing its female leader) will come in time, especially as the houses get their physical structures.

A city spell-bound under the aging sun,
Music my rampart, and my only one."

To the best of my knowledge (which, admittedly, is several years out of date) Elothean Studies is the best source for information on the Houses.

You can find the book in game, or google it to find a copy online.

The one for Gilded Longleaf is outside the city to the northeast. It's very pretty. I raided the pantry.

If that's not enough to tell you where it is, try gwething for help.

Melyo'rensha?

<<Not gonna see any kind of official obvious house built for the Melyo Rensh'a.

But, can you get the secret magical scar that only other house members can see?

You are XXXX XXXXXX of the House of the Waxen Moons, a Human Ranger.
You have crystal green eyes. You have cropped platinum hair, with tanned skin.
You have a thick bushy mustache that droops heavily on your upper lip and a scruffy growth of stubble.
You have a tattoo of an iridescent winged butterfly on your chest.

do any elothian historians know anything about the title I have, seems it involved the ferdahl and a dp occurrance
I've just returned to the realms

thanx

ahh okies any idea where I could find out info on it?

Been spending some quality time exploring these, going to say it again, wow! Lots of work went into them and it's a pleasure to see everything!

Wanted to post a little bug though. I imagine that something just didn't get toggled in the Grey Storm towers after the release when everyone can explore. However, the bug is:
When you go into the west tower, and try to go up the stairs, you get the 'only house member' messaging. However, if you go in the east tower, you can go up the stairs just fine, go all the way to the top, take the sky bridge over and wreak havoc in the west tower un-checked.

Such nice work though, although the Gilded Longleaf one IS the best one, hands down...no bias there at all either. :P

Is it possible to change your house or are you bound to the house you originally selected?

I made the mistake of going with the one that sounded neat before I actually read any information on them unfortunately, mea culpa.

Sorry, I was way too vague with my original post. I was meaning Elothean houses (Rowan Branch, Gilded Longleaf, etc.) Not an actual player home. I'm wanting to change out of the house I'm in now and choose another now that I'm more familiar with them but am unclear if that's possible.

Most of the houses in the ig books took this sort of thing rather badly

You see XYZ Person of the House of the Waxen Moons, a Human.


Are houses not just for Elotheans?


P.S. are all the houses out now? I though they were all done and in QC years ago.

According to Lore one of the houses took a S'kra Mur if I recall correctly, but really that's only one house that had that tradition.

Sounds likely that's a bug.

From what I recall from the Elothean gurus, only Elotheans will be joining Elothean Houses.
