About the houses.
They are occupied by an organized band of vampires who are sworn to follow a Master. Most live in the same house somewhat ike a fraternity.
There are ranks and positions in each house. ie.. House Second (takes over when the Master is away or incapacitated), Seneschal (sworn to protect house and Master), Cook, guards, as well as other normal business house positions (drivers, etc)
Master of the House - the house vampires swear allegiance to this vampire.
Second - second in charge, takes over leadership when Master is away or indisposed for lengthy period of time
Captain of the Guard - Head of Security
Seneschal - A formal position in a vampire house. The seneschal is responsible for defending the house itself, not the master.
Liaison - (maintains smooth running of the household and staff)
Initiate - New vampires who has yet to go through the Commendation ceremony.
Novitiate - A fledgling or lower ranking member of the family. Can be considered Novitiate for years.
Red Guard - secret vampire organization independent of the house structure dedicated to the protection of all vampires and guarding against too-powerful masters. Members are sometime rogue vampires. Created to ensure the vampire Houses and Council didn't overstep their bounds.
Council - oversees the various vampire Houses. This is a group of four vampires plucked from the various houses.
Names - Only the Master of the Houses have two names. Other vampires brought into the house choose what name they wish to be called (normally their first name) and it is the only name they will be known by unless they reach Master status.
