For maximum political role-play potential players should sort themselves into noble houses in much the same way that Game of Thrones does.  There will be between 5 and 10 Great Houses plus numerous banner housesTo keep [[:Category:RPCSS|the game]] balanced, there will need to be a nearly equal number of Great Houses in each kingdom. This isn't necessarily easy to accomplish as players tend to lump togetherWe will do our best to balence the natural flow of role-play while keeping it from becoming too lopsided. Leaders of kingdoms and great houses will need to be prepared to build allies within or without of their own kingdoms.

Sanctuary's primary story line is designed around land-based conflict between Noble Houses. We use a custom web-based game tool called RPCSS to manage the armed conflict, allowing the primary story arcs to be completely player-driven. There are five kingdoms, five Ruling Houses and numerous other Great Houses and Banner Houses. House Applications are currently being accepted for Great Houses.
