1. What are Houses and Covens?

Houses and Covens are organizations of members within Vampire Rave. They are independent societies. Each functions in accordance with the guidelines as set forth by the House/Coven Master.

Houses and Covens have a number of unique features including a private Forum, News section, and the ability of the Master to send group messages.

2. What is the difference between a House and a Coven?

There are 7 Vampire Rave Houses. This number is fixed and will never change. Each House is headed by a Vampire Rave Master Vampire.

A Coven is created by a Sire. There are few differences between a House and Coven other than Marks and whether the Master is a Master Vampire or Sire.

3. How do I join a House or Coven?

A member has no choice as to whether or not they want to be in a specific House or Coven. Members are selected by the House/Coven Master along the following guidelines:

A member must be at least level 5 (Caitiff) to be inducted.

A member must not already be in a House or Coven.

Sire's have special exceptions and cannot be forcibly inducted.

Members can also be traded between a House or Coven.

4. Help! I'm in a House/Coven and I hate the Master!

Members do not have a choice as to whether or not they want to be in a specific House or Coven. A member can request of their Master that they be traded, however a Master is under no obligation to facilitate such a trade.

When a member reaches the Status of Sire they are free to leave any House or Coven.

5. I've been traded! I don't want to be traded!

Members do not have a choice as to whether or not they will be traded to another House or Coven.

6. What is the House/Coven Score?

The House/Coven Score is a complex mathematical formula that ranks all Houses and Covens. You can find an indepth explanation of how the Score is computed here.

7. What is Favor of the Prince?

Favor of the Prince is earned by House or Coven members through a member's level of activity on Vampire Rave. Favor is an important portion of the House/Coven score (34%). After Favor has been earned, it may be traded or given to another House or Coven. It can be considered currency, and is often used to facilitate trades between a House or Coven.

All Favor earned by a member belongs to the House or Coven Master. It is up to the Master how Favor will be used. This includes Sire's who have chosen to join a House or Coven versus starting their own Coven.

Statistics are maintained showing how much Favor a member has earned. This statistic is not what Favor the member possesses (Their Favor belongs to their Master). However, this statistic is useful for Master's who are considering trading members.

Favor is earned in the following manner:

25 page views equals 1 Favor. 1 page view equals 1/25 Favor.

15 minutes of time spent equals 1 Favor. 1 second of time spent equals 1/900 Favor.

Important Note!

Although the primary method of earning favor is through website activity, it is not the only way. The Prince may distribute Favor in any way The Prince deems fit. Often times The Prince is very unfair about how such disbursements are awarded.

8. What are the various House/Coven levels?

The are several House/Coven levels that are independent of other areas of Vampire Rave:

Forum Master - Can Open/Close/Edit/Delete Forum messages.

News Master - Can Add/Delete News articles.

Detail Master - Can change the House crest, representation, mark, and description.

House Message Master - Can send House messages.

Trade Master - Can initiate and accept trade offers from other Houses or Covens.

Level Master - Can alter the level of House members.

Assistant House Master - All House powers. The only excluded power is marking.

It is up to the Master to decide how they will run their House or Coven and what powers they will bequeath upon members.

9. What are Marks?

There are 3 Marks:

Mark of the Prince

Mark of the Master

Mark of the Sire

The Prince can mark any member of any House or Coven. A Master Vampire can mark members of their own House only. A Sire can mark members of their own Coven only. How The Prince, Master Vampire's, and Sire's choose to issue their mark will vary.

A Mark awards a member a bonus to their Status. Mark of the Prince is 10%. Mark of the Master is 5%. Mark of the Sire is 2%. This means the most a single member can accrue is 15% (no member can be marked by more than one Master Vampire or Sire). This bonus is applied to the member's Status and it is substantial. The higher the level of the member the more significant the bonus. As an example, a level 20 member with Mark of the Prince is instantly bumped to level 22 (20 * 1.1 = 22). The modifier is applied after Status is computed, and after any Referral Bonus.

10. I'm blind. What does that mean?

A Master may choose to blind any member of their House or Coven. When a member is Blind they cannot see the House Forum or News, and they will not receive any House messages.

A Master may choose to blind a member for any number of reasons, including problematic members. Who a Master chooses to blind is totally up to the Master.

11. What special exceptions does a Sire have?

A Sire may not be forcibly inducted into a House or Coven. A Sire may however petition a House or Coven for membership. Membership must be granted by the House/Coven Master.

A Sire can start their own Coven. If a Sire wishes to start their own Coven they must contact The Prince.

A Sire can choose to leave any House or Coven at any time. A Sire can also disband their Coven. Special Note!

Because of Master and Sire marks, a member can achieve an artificial level of Sire. If that member then leaves a House or Coven they will loose their mark. Their Status is recomputed and their level may drop below Sire. At this point, the member can be forcibly inducted into any House or Coven.

If a Sire chooses to leave a House or Coven they should make sure that they will retain their Status of Sire after they leave.

The CW is sponsoring Vampire Rave this week. They have a new show coming out called, "13: Fear is Real". Parts of Vampire Rave will have a different look and feel this week. Please take a few moments to review the show details. I think they've got something here. Here's a brief show synopsis:

Combining reality and scripted horror, this series features 13 contestants staying in a spooky house and forced to confront their deepest fears. Each week, a different competitor departs by appearing to die in an elaborately staged scenario. The last one standing wins $66,666.
