Xian's notes on Arcade Politics

note: this is very preliminary and unfinished

The Houses

There's a mechanic.

House of Benevolent Oversight

Zhu Cai-Wen thinks the Hon'eth family is one of the families that joined together to form the House of Benevolent Oversight.

Would restoring the name require replacing the House of Benevolent Oversight? How about if Magpie were being replaced, would that require regime change?

Hubris of Kings would cause significant political trouble for the current head of the House, and possibly lead to the downfall of either him or the entire House.

House of Gainful Protection

Was at one point trying to foment open warfare between the wine house and the cloth house

House of Beneficent Travel

A Tso of this House was looking for Yanyu to provide matchmaking services.

House of Judicious Increase

Ayuki works for the bankers.

Lady Chow (aka "Pai Gow Chow"), an avid panda collector, obtained Lijuan's endorsement, perhaps as part of a plan to allow Judicious Increase to displace Benevolent Oversight. Or something about the Merit Trade Company.

House of Enticing Vintage

Liet's house.

House of Resplendent Decoration

Myo's house.

House of Quiet Concordance

They're pretty quiet. Also concordant.
