Title: The Frostwake Orphanage (Be adopted into a Familial House)
Post by: Michi on February 09, 2016, 01:25:34 AM
Many of you know of our Family/House system here in Wintreath, and some may even already be a part of one of those houses. Others, however, may be wondering what I'm referring to, and how to join one of these houses.

To make things easy... I decided to create an adoption system. That way, members who are interested in joining a house can express their interest, and house patriarchs/delegated house officials can adopt interested members.

So, if you're interested in wanting to join a family, simply post here, and any of the patriarchs (or one of their delegated officials) can choose to adopt you into their family.

If you're interested in creating your own family, simply go here (http://wintreath.com/forums/index.php?topic=2889.0) to register your house. :)

Here are the current houses:

Until now, we've been the only house accepting new members.

Of course, our requirements for membership have been rather... unconventional.

Did we even end up settling on requirements?

And we have a bit of an unfair advantage because the four initial members came here to conquer Wintreath came to have fun from another region, and then just sort of decided to form our own House. But our philosophy is "ask forgiveness, not permission," so we end up operating quite independently anyway.

Edit:
I remember the days when The Noble House of Meindhart was the most prosperous House in the region :(
I came in on the tail end of that time, as first Amalya became ill, and then after my first term on the UH, you became too busy with RL. What was Meindhert like at its peak?

i wouldn't say the only house accepting new members, as most of the houses normally do. I'd just say the only house that was doing it actively.  :P

A lot of fun, tbh - Daphne was always a great sort to chat to on the IRC when she was around and Stark, for all his problems with some in the community, was a hell of a lot of fun in RP and as a person. Harry McClain was difficult to manage for most but beyond some silly posts he made I always found his enthusiasm for the region infectious, and it helped me come up with a lot of my best ideas.

Reliving the glory days, ahh..

The point of this thread is for the people of the houses to take in people that want to be in a house in a first-come-first-served kind of way.  :P

But if people have a preference for a house they want to join, that definitely is allowed.  :P

South Africa would serve as an example of how badly socialism can go wrong.
And for all that I said this isn't the place, America serves as a perfect example of how conservatism and the right wing ideologies can go wrong. I don't think socialism had anything to do with apartheid, or at least it wasn't anything approaching the main reason for its development. Americans and this hateboner for socialism is honestly one of the more stupid things I get to witness in my sphere of work.

Let's leave it at that now.

Yeah, I'm not saying socialism in any situation is stupid. I'm just saying it isn't inherently good, just like capitalism isn't inherently good or bad. Somewhere in the middle is where it's at. But I digress. Perhaps a topic in the serious discussions area is in order?

I never stopped being a citizen :P

And yes, male, though Spudtriarch is much more appropriate.

Crush is correct:

Quote
The point of this thread is for the people of the houses to take in people that want to be in a house in a first-come-first-served kind of way.  :P

But if people have a preference for a house they want to join, that definitely is allowed.  :P

In the end, a member can say "Well I want to join (insert house name) if it's okay," just like they can turn down a house member's invitation as well.

Ah...my mistake.  I had forgotten it was in the laws of Wintreath:

Quote
1) Citizens of Wintreath who head a familial house in the region and have at least 100 posts on the regional forums shall have the right to formally request recognition of their House by the Government of Wintreath. The Monarch or his designee shall have the authority to approve or deny requests for recognition, and shall maintain a public record of all currently recognized Houses.

So Laurentus is technically correct on this.

So here's a thought, @Wintermoot: adopt Crushita Telcontar (@Samwise Gamgee). He's itching to be a royal. :P
As much as I would be honoured to be adopted by Wintermoot, I doubt I deserve such a title. One of the main reasons that I'm so insistent on keeping my Ainurian title is that its one of the few things that I can keep from Ainur now thats its just about over. I was there 5 years and Crown Prince is the culmination of all the time, work and service I gave to that region. I feel it should carry over the same here, and that whoever, if anyone is the next Prince/Princess, they should have put their heart and soul into this region like Wintermoot has.

Still, if Wintermoot offered..... :P

Well, I mean it's not as if you'd necessarily have to be the heir. Chanku was a prince, but only the Crown Prince is regarded as the heir, if I understand correctly.

Correct.

The Crown Prince is the heir that would take over should anything happen to Wintermoot, or should he choose to leave Wintreath.

The Prince is mainly a familial title or an "elevation" with no actual perks (like nobility elevations for the most part) outside of the name and previously a standing invitation in the UH.

I only have like 300 posts though :P There are very clearly people who have put a lot more into this region then I have and would be more deserving of the title.

I've been putting more and more thought into it, and I'd like to join a house as well. I'll put careful consideration into which house I join, so I'd like all interested applicants to submit their résumés either here or to the official address (http://www.wintreath.com/forums/index.php?action=pm;sa=send;u=1168). :P

Post by: Laurentus on March 25, 2016, 03:19:24 AM
I'd be happy to adopt your pompous ass into House Valeria. :P

We offer:

1. The largest and currently most successful house when you consider how much we contribute to government, gameplay, culture and just about everything else (except, strangely, recruitment).

2. The most sarcastic members you'll ever meet. It can basically be considered our native tongue.

3. We're simply put the best. Certainly much better than the Princely House of Telcontar, the Noble Houses of Meindhert and Penguon and all those other filthy, lower class pretenders.

4. The only House that could be considered more powerful than us is House Kestar, and Wintermoot's adoption standards are, quite simply, draconian. :P

EDIT: Humour (and self-interest) aside though, any of the Houses would be excellent, and I do think you would fit in well with Meindhert.

Not "best," I said "well," lol.

It's an old power, and you could help Weissreich shape it into something even more spectacular than it once was. I kinda get the feeling you prefer to have your own voice. Joining such a large House as ours isn't for everyone.

EDIT: That said, though, I'm sorely lacking heirs, so I would definitely not mind adopting you. I suspect the same can be said of Aragonn.

To go along with what Laurentus said, I too think you'd fit in pretty well in Meindhert. Back when we were a power, our members held key posts in the Riksrad and Underhusen, as well as vital roles in maintaining the region's culture. We were quite outspoken, very active, very involved... Much like you seem to be.

You remind me of Stark as well, which helps a lot (I don't know why, but you're driven as much as he was).

I'll echo what Weiss said.  Meindhert has been home to some pretty exceptional members, with one being the previous Jarl of Culture that I took over for (Amalya), with the patriarch being the first Duke of Wintreath, and with the other being I believe our previous Jarl of Information.

Each of them has had (or has in Weiss' case) a great drive and passion for Wintreath much like you do.

So I also believe you'd be a perfect fit for Meindhert.

I believe so, he held a lot of posts in the legal and executive side of things. We both worked in the legislative together but I was more focused on getting all the groundwork for this setting laid out :) He was a great guy, tbh.

I'm still ambivalent as to whether to join a house or create one. I could do neither, but I feel as if that would be disadvantageous. Could someone draft up a list of pros and cons of being in a house, creating one, and neither?
Easy!

Pros of Valeria:

We're the best
We like penguins
We like cookies
New Hyperion is fun, too!
We have a cool clubhouse
We are awesomely unconventional
We are rational
We like discussing everything
We get sidetracked easily
We are the most humble family ever

Cons of Valeria:

I suppose you might not want to join if you're allergic to cookies...

Pros of new house:

You get to choose the name

Cons of new house:

No cookies
Also, no Laurentus, and that would be very sad
No North, and that'd mean no Singapore
No Hydra, and then you'd lose at Minecraft
No Aragonn, and that'd mean lame RPs
No Colby, and that means no cheese (;) )
No taulover, and that would also be sad
No me, which would be the saddest thing of all :P

There's the list, @Barnes!! The choice should be clear!! ;)

Totally join Valeria!! :D

You know what, I'm going to do it. I'll create a sorting hat quiz for houses. I'll have to figure out the process, of course, but that's part of the fun.

@Wintermoot, @Weissreich, @Pengu, @Colberius X, @Joshua Bluteisen, @Govindia, @Sapphiron, @HannahB, @Feast Potatoes, @Rasdanation, and @Chanku, you'll have to send me information about your houses (anything you wish to include, just perhaps a paragraph or two; of course, more is always welcome). I'll set up the quiz in due time :)

Well technically you'd have two.  One would be your son, the other your son-in-law.

Members of FLOAT (Escanthea and Nargothond) started to ship me with Feminamia on the Ainurian RMB. It was meant to be a propaganda piece that mixed imperialist symbolism with horrifying sexual acts, but it ended up being a best seller in Thalasus and facilitated a lot of tourism between the two countries.

The Feminamia and the Masculumnia: Cold War Part III
Cold War IV: Cold, then Warm
Cold War V: Electric Ecstasy

Cold War XI: The two "towers" of my love
Return of the Prince Albert: Cold War XII
The Snoggit: A Cold War Prequel
The War gets Hot: Cold War XIII
Nuclear winter is okay in a cabin alone with you: Cold War XIV
Zombies in my Charliesheenland: A Cold War Halloween story
Nobody left alive, guess it's up to us to repopulate it, eh?: Cold War XV
Bottleneck effect: Cold War XVI (Rated I for incest)
Post-Apocalyptic Boning Guide: A Cold War epilogue story
Oh my god I cannot unsee this: The Cold War art book


Excerpt from Chapter 378 of the First Book:
Thalasus begged her for release
"Please, Mistress Feminamia, take it out! TAKE IT OUT!"
Feminamia responded with a whip
"Aeee! Thank you mistress, thank you! I deserved that!"
"Why did you deserve it, slave?"
"For being a cis male sh*tlord, m'lady!"
"Correct, slave, you may now have the privilege of drinking my-"

I was but a wee lad; I had taken my inaugural breath upon this mad world just thirty-six months prior to this devastating calamity, yet my recollection of it is as clear as if it had only conspired a day ago.

My actions immediately preceding the catastrophe were routine for an adolescence of my youth. I had been simply-

I say we nuke him now. Or perhaps it is already too late. Perhaps we should begin developing a time travelling robot to kill his mother before he's ever born.

And just because you and Sapphiron are arch-nemeses doesn't mean we all are, @Laurentus.  Ara and myself found him to be a valuable ally in death, as you well know. ;)

This guy gets it, whats great is that it is fleshed out enough for basic conversation too, though pronunciation is not always agreed upon, so it is primarily a written language among those who speak it, Ironic considering in lore it is supposed to be a spoken language less than written but is never spoken on screen except choice phrases here and there.

If not, then I'll go for cousin to one of ya'll.  :P

Unless you want to be an absent father, in which case, we became famous and influential just as a big "fuck you" in our back story. So fuck you, dad. We made it anyway.

House Valeria agreed in earlier discussions that our RP ages would be unrelated to RL age, and would instead be based on seniority of joining Aura Hyperia/New Hyperion. Which placed birth order as me (55), Colby (54), Aragonn (48), Laurentus (47).

Would this work into the existing continuity we established, like, a year and half ago? Because I do recall something about me disappearing on a trip around the world to get away from dad.

Clearly it's because I had decided to come around at that time, drunk off my ass.  I kept pestering you and the others to take part in my puppet show, and threw a bottle at you every time you missed a line.  So you took a trip to get away from me and my drunken abuse.   :o

@Hydra, @North, @Cinciri, @Aragonn, @Pengu, just mentioning you all about the need for a new Patriarch. Personally, I would go for Tau, as he has been in Aura Hyperia and New Hyperion longer than all of us, was the one to bring Wintreath and New Hyperion closer together, and simply has an astounding presence and activity record on the forum.

Please indicate who you want to take over as Patriarch from our dearly departed Colberius X.

Also, @Gerrick, you have a potential family member. Grab him before Valeria does. :P

You can add our familial house to your profile by clicking your profile name drop-card in the top-right corner of your screen, click "OLD User CP", then click the "Modify Profile" drop-card in the top-left corner, click "Forum Profile", and at the very bottom of your screen there's a space for you to enter our familial house. Kinda hard to find, so let me know if you need clearer instructions.

And glad to have you aboard! :D

I'm also in favor of Tau being Patriarch, but do we want to go with an Il-esque dynasty in which each Patriarch declares the former some sort of higher thing, and then claiming a position that is officially slightly less (ie in case somehow Colby returns to us from afar someday.  Can't predict the future, after all... :P )

The differences in the houses are mostly just who are in them. House Valeria is comprised of a lot of people related to our vassal region, New Hyperion (though they're not all from there). House Kaizer has a lot of people who have played a role in the Storting (our legislature), I believe. And the rest of the houses are just one or two people.

Our house system right now is mostly just formalizing ties between friends (or to make friends). We do have an RP that utilized our houses called Wintreath Bleeds (https://wintreath.com/forums/index.php?board=123.0), though it's currently on hiatus.

But you're welcome to join House Burdock (my house) if you like. :D No pressure.

Maybe organize the members into offsprings or children of you, and brothers and sisters of yourself, within the family. Which should be simple. Case some houses have offsprings, and brothers/sisters to the leader of the house, plus also the family could adopt it's own kids I think but idk. So am I in the family?

The Palais de Crowe will be kept on as a sort of summer home/getaway retreat, and I'll still be overseeing the city of Cain on many occasion from there.  Members of House Valeria will be considered permanent honored guests of the Palais, and will have access to all of its functions and services.

For the most part there is no selection process. I think some Houses have an application, but don't quote me on that. It's really down to whichever House you'd like to join the most.

Of the Noble Houses, Valeria and Ostergaard are the largest with certain members being Counts, whilst Meindhert and Burdock are Ducal Houses as I and Gerrick are Dukes of Wintreath.

In the interests of not giving Valeria any more members (because they honestly don't need any more) and as I've seen you chatting away on the Discord, Meindhert would be more than happy to have you as a member if you'd like to join us :)

Why have you decided to join a House, if you don't mind me asking?

As for your question, I have the mentality of getting involved in as much as possible from the beginning. I'm still new to Nationstates but I like how much there is to offer beyond the game itself.

Inter house rivalries you say? Well I want to know is why the House of Valeria is called "distinguished". As far I can see the House of Meindhert is listened before them soooo

Because Valeria is huge, has two nobles, two people who've won Wintreath's Finest of the Year (one of which did it twice), and has by far the strongest government presence.

However it is important to note that "Distinguished" is a self-given title. There hasn't been any royal decree establishing it. :sans:

I hereby submit my application to join one of the houses, though I am a bit picky in my choice of family. I may reject a few offers before I settle on my final choice.

From all the houses I've seen, I think I prefer Burdock best, but am still open to offers from other houses.

If I don't receieve fitting offers, I may start my own house.

I have made a thing, @Ruguo.

I think it could be cool to have all the patriarchs/matriarchs follow suit here. Our familial connections have just become too vast to list easily with just text. Reading through Valeria's entry is torturous.

(Also just a general note on Valeria's relations here, lol: If I am uncertain where you are in relation to everyone else, I have moved you to a branch of the tree that has some... interesting primordial entities as your parents, until we can either figure out how to flesh out this part of our backstory, or you have figured out how you wish to be related to those on the main tree)

>Also in accordance to Decree 004, due to Elbbsas being the only semi-active-ish member (on Discord) in House Kaizer, she has been made the current Matriarch.  Chanku has been credited as the original matriarch.
>House Everden has been considered being disbanded also in accordance to Decree 004, however as both HannahB and Hugsim are longtime members that have done much for the region, their house is currently immortalized in landmark status.
>The list has been updated as to who is in what house, with Ogun currently being in Valeria, some of the members having left the region/CTEd for 3 months or longer, and the like.
>House Zagreus, headed by Niko/Gattoartico has been added (a year late) since Niko is still semi active on the Discord.

They're houses that are created in here by members (but you can request to join), but to create a new one you have to meet the requirement of Decree 004 first:

Quote
1) Citizens of Wintreath who head a familial house in the region and have at least 100 non-spam posts on the regional forums shall have the right to formally request recognition of their House by the Government of Wintreath. The Monarch or his designee shall have the authority to approve or deny requests for recognition, and shall maintain a public record of all currently recognized Houses.
Also I believe you're supposed to have at least one other member in this new house that you'd be creating besides yourself when you make the request, though I don't recall.

It really depends on your preference.

Valeria is one of the older houses and is currently the biggest, has 2 Counts, and has 2 active people (myself and Laurentus), and somewhat active folks (Taulover, Sapphiron, Mateo, and Mathyland).

Burdock is another noble house only with Gerrick being a Duke (which is a step higher than Count in our nobility system), and is also an older house as well.  While not the biggest, you've got folks like Melehan, Epiree, Kane, Vroendal, W Amadeus, and Red Mones...all of whom are at least somewhat active either in the main server or (in Epiree's case) on WARPP.

Eske is headed by our very own Ruguo/Silverfish, who is also an Earl (which we use for the gender-neutral equivalent of Count/Countess).  On top of that, while it's a currently smaller house, it has all currently active members (Abigail, Marz, and Arenado as well as Silv) within it.

Meindhart, whom I'm surprised I forgot to mention, has been where some of our original greats have been, such as our past Jarl of Culture Amalya (A Countess whom the Amalyan sector is named in honor of)...as well as the guy who arguably created our World of Wintreath lore including the RP map, Duke Weissreich, who is also a Paragon.  Currently, Weiss leads the house though he's mostly inactive, and Barnes is a part of the house as well, so it's definitely a smaller house...but it definitely has a lot of merit to it.


The common houses have their quirks as well, such as Everden being an immortal landmark house since its two currently inactive members are notable members of the region...and likewise Dawsinian and Emoticonius are well known members in the region with currently active houses, even if they're the only current active members...same with Zagreus since its patriarch still occasionally pops into Discord.

There's more benefit to joining one of the noble houses due to overall more active members in them, but there's really nothing wrong with the common houses either outside of them being a bit more quiet due to lack of members joining them.

I am interested in joining a familial house (or being adopted). However, while I wish to put in my official request, I want to know which house would be best for me (totally making this a competition, lol :))) and the benefits of belonging to a house. Furthermore, for roleplay/nation lore purposes, how do I express or think of the Ljufving dynasty's entrance into a familial house? Via royal marriage or political alliances? Thank you!
It really depends on your preference.

Valeria is one of the older houses and is currently the biggest, has 2 Counts, and has 2 active people (myself and Laurentus), and somewhat active folks (Taulover, Sapphiron, Mateo, and Mathyland).

Burdock is another noble house only with Gerrick being a Duke (which is a step higher than Count in our nobility system), and is also an older house as well.  While not the biggest, you've got folks like Melehan, Epiree, Kane, Vroendal, W Amadeus, and Red Mones...all of whom are at least somewhat active either in the main server or (in Epiree's case) on WARPP.

Eske is headed by our very own Ruguo/Silverfish, who is also an Earl (which we use for the gender-neutral equivalent of Count/Countess).  On top of that, while it's a currently smaller house, it has all currently active members (Abigail, Marz, and Arenado as well as Silv) within it.

Alrighty, so then, this is my next question: Which house should I join and why?

That I cannot answer.  You must seek inside yourself and decide the house which resonates best with you.  I can only gently nudge you towards Valeria out of slight bias while casually recommending something like Eske as well due to its active folks...or recommending Burdock due to it already having 2 other WARPP folk (W Amadeus and Epiree) in it.

After some thought, I have made my decision; I would like to join House Kasten.

Since this was discussed in the WARPP server with Daws and was approved in there, the OP has been updated with the change.

Awesome! So I'll get my "Familial House" tag from the operator here on the forums?

You have to add it manually- go to the pull down menu and open “Old User CP”. From there, go to Forum Profile and scroll all the way to the bottom. The text box will be there :D

I'm sure you're welcome in Valeria, but I'd also encourage some of the other houses.  Do you have a preference?

Do you happen to be on discord? It’s usually the best way to get in contact with our Head, @Ruguo. That or you could shoot them a message here. 😄

Their disc ID is Silverfish on the main server. If you’re interested in being an Eske, DMing them directly is the best bet :D
