Which House are you partial to??

[Gromph]

I was just thinking and i wanted to know what all you peoples favorite houses are and why, I prefer House Telvanni, because their very machiavellian and sell you many kool spells

[dragon wench]

I keep on beginning new characters... I have joined a different house with each game, and I have to say Hlaalu is the only one in which I have completed all the quests and become Grandmaster. I find Telvanni are a shade too Machiavellian for my tastes, though I really like their architecture, and the Redorans are a touch too pure for the type of character I usually play. So, I discovered that Hlaalu suited my style quite well. Besides.. 'Uncle Crassius' completely cracks me up!

[Gromph]

Yuck i hate Crassius, he is such a freak, and the telvanni fit me perfectly, any telvanni i met i killed and stole from, and even once i was expelled none of them cared and still gave me missions, and somehow im bacl in now, the hiallu give you such boring mission,s telvanni let you kill stuff

Telvanni: Spells, grow your own house. Who needs more?

Amen to that! I'd say House Telvanni is the clear pick; heck, you can get your own sphere guardian (it's not that great, I'll grant you, but it gets style points )

[Ideal Maxima]

wut's a sphere guardian?

EDIT: oooooooo! u mean the sphere centurian thingie found in the dwarven ruins...

[fable]

Haven't you visited the Dwarven ruins?

And as long as we're all (cough) trying to stop on topic (cough), which House do you prefer?

for the home, i'd say:
Hlaalu--> it has the best view, easyest to get to

i'd say thoe either Telvanni or Hlaalu because i like the house of mages (Telvanni) but i like the house of thieves (Hlaalu) too. the fighter's house (Redorans) was a peice of crap, they don't give good missions, they have most of their towns in ash storms (including your home), and the one dude (forget his name, i think he is the head of the house) is a compleat jerk!

and i beleave the proper name for it is sphere centurean (and i think i also spelled it wrong)

[Anonononomous]

Telvanni is the coolest. Their rewards are awesome. Aryon's Helper is so useful.


My current game is Redoran and they're just horrible. I can't advance due to people not acknowledging what I did. It sucks. Not to mention they're supposed to be a fighting group and I've barely fought.

That mission to get the founder's helm back sucks. Barbarians don't have high personality. Come on.

Hey gromph, whats that long m word you use. And i like the Hiallu just cuz they have a cool name. If i wanted to restart though, i probably wouldnt join any house til pretty late in the game. After raiding each house vault in vivic

[Sean The Owner]

ive only had the one character that went into houses, and redoran was crap but hlaalu isnt too bad and havent been in telvanni so im gonna have to say hlaalu

[Locke Da'averan]

only tried hlaalu, but since i hate hate hate hate hate hate the ashlands, and since the other two strongholds are in there i have to say hlaalu, it's in pretty nice place, allthough i'd hope you'd get a big(not a castle, just bigger than normal place) house from the center of balmora, that'd be nice, why does your stronghold have to be so far out there..

but hlaalu stronghold is so quaint and nice and i've filled my place with vampire minions, mwahaaahaaahaa, anyone who needs a bite to eat is welcome

[dragon wench]

Well, I agree that the Hlaalu Stronghold is in a nice place, not too mention a quick Almsivi into Balmora, but I use a house mod, so it is more that I prefer their attitude to some degree. The Redorans strike me as rather self-rightious, and the Telvanni, though quite cool, are a bit bloodthirsty. I am one of those weird people that tries to avoid murder whenever possible.
Though, one of my characters is a Dark Elf assassin who will be joining the Morag Tong and the Telvanni; I thought I'd experiment in order to see if I can overcome my aversion to spilling blood

Do you mean "machiavellian", and yes the telvanni are bloodthirsty, and if you had read any of my other posts you would know that im a pragmatic type who will eliminate anyone in my way, so telvanni are my kind of people, and besides, the best rewards are ones acquired after killing someone who harbors you ill will
