House of Prominence Views & Beliefs

The House believes that Immortality is both individual path and reactive science. They often rapidly engineer environmental, arcane, or social circumstances around a member's pending transformation. As well as quickly abandoning the effort, if it is a failure. The organizations of the City include far more than one Eternal apotheosis as successes, and the House counts no less than a dozen ascendants from other organizations among the Eternal’s ranks.

When not actively engaged in the central effort to achieve various forms of immortality, the organization is as actively engaged in the development of the city as a city that can actively support the needs of a growing eternal population. They hold seminars on social reintegration, generational planning, and countless other subjects to explore the full ramification of their intentions toward Forever.
