Create a House & Invite Collaborators

Spin up a collaborative House to share campaigns with other teachers, and invite them with a role — Master, Sage, or Apprentice.

A House is a hub where teachers collaborate — sharing campaigns, parties, and Lore. Everyone already gets a personal House automatically on their first campaign; this page is about creating an additional, collaborative House and inviting other teachers into it.

Subscription

Requires Sovereign or higher.

Creating a collaborative House and inviting collaborators requires an active Sovereign subscription. If your Sovereign subscription lapses, existing members stay but you can’t create new Houses or send new invites.

Tier vs. role — two different things

Sovereign is the subscription tier that unlocks this feature. Master, Sage, and Apprentice are membership roles a person holds inside a House — Master = Admin/Owner, Sage = Teacher, Apprentice = Student. The House creator holds the Master role. They are different axes; don’t confuse them.

Create the House

  1. Open Gamemaster Quarters and tap Create House

    On Base Camp, switch to the Gamemaster Quarters tab (it shares one card with Party Memberships — they’re mutually exclusive tabs, not two separate cards) and tap Create House. (If you’re not an active Sovereign and already have a House, you’ll see a locked Create House (Sovereign) button that opens an upgrade dialog instead — it’s never silently hidden.)

  2. Name the House

    Enter a House Name (hint: “e.g., Stark, Atreides, of Light”). A live Title preview shows the final name — for example “House Stark” — and the word “House” is added for you, so type just your identifier. Optionally add a Motto.

    “House ” is added automatically — type just the identifier.verified @ 2f427ecbd

  3. Save and land on the dashboard

    Save. The House is created (you’re set as its Master) and you land on the House Management dashboard — an info card, then Campaigns, Source Library, and Members sections, in that order.

  4. Open the Source Library

    From the dashboard, tap the Source Library card to open the House’s source library — add web-page and document sources the whole House can draw on. These sources also feed the AI Wizard’s Sources dice when generating content for campaigns in this House.

Invite collaborators

  1. Open the invite dialog

    In the Members section header, tap the Invite User icon. (If you’re not entitled it shows a lock — “Upgrade to Invite”.) The dialog is titled “Invite to <house name>”.

  2. Enter emails and pick a role

    Choose Single, Bulk, or CSV mode and enter addresses. Then pick the collaborator’s Role — Apprentice, Sage, or Master (it defaults to Apprentice). Again: these are House roles, not subscription tiers.

  3. Send the invites

    Tap Send Invite / Send N Invites. Invitees appear in the Pending Invites card and must explicitly accept (it surfaces in their notification bell).

A first House is withheld on purpose

A brand-new Sovereign with zero Houses won’t see a standalone Create House button — your personal House auto-creates with your first campaign, and this flow is for a second, collaborative House. (For Houses attached to an enterprise Realm, the same screens use “Department” wording — see Realms.)
