	While the ~~Houses~~ all compete with one another in various ways, their relationships vary between hostile and selectively friendly. Opposing ~~Houses~~ tend to be hostile towards one another, and are engaged in a neverending effort to impede, spy on, steal from, and ultimately destroy the opposing House.

	Typically, a citizen may only be a member of a single ~~House~~; should they leave, they are rarely welcomed back.

This hardly stops some from finding ways to access multiple houses simultaneously - but this is no easy task, and comes with all potentially grievous consequences one might expect from angering powerful and vindictive mages.

	Cults are more varied than ~~Houses~~ in strength and size, ranging from a small group of like-minded practitioners, to a large and well-organized group spanning many buildings throughout the City . Cults spring up around a variety of themes, not all of which are solidly defined or taken seriously. Larger ~~Cults~~ are typically more organized, have access to more resources, possess a stronger theme, and compete amongst each other similarly to ~~Houses~~ - the largest of them hope to someday be recognized as a ~~House~~ proper. Affiliation with a ~~House~~ does not stop one from joining a ~~Cult~~, but it may complicate one's situation with either group, depending on the reputations and relationships involved.
