Created page with "Over the millennia, countless Houses have risen and fallen within the Hives of Necromunda. Though rarely as powerful as the great Houses of Orlock, Escher, Goliath, Cawdor..."

New page

Over the millennia, countless Houses have risen and fallen within the Hives of [[Necromunda]]. Though rarely as powerful as the great Houses of Orlock, Escher, Goliath, Cawdor, Delaque and Van Saar, many have made their mark on the planet's society.

These tables can also be used to create Houses or gangs for another Hive World. Simply ignore the "Hive" table, and replace references to specific Houses, the Imperial Fists, et cetera with relevant equivalents.

==Creation tables==
===Era===

{| border="1" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="5" align="center"
! colspan="2" |When did the House rise to power? (d10)
|-
! 1
| '''Pre-M36''' - The House arose back when the Imperium was at its greatest. Though it no longer exists, the House's legacy may still mark Necromunda.
|-
! 2
| '''M36-M39''' - The House rose during tumultuous times for the Imperium - but whether it is still remembered or was forgotten in the chaos is up to you.
|-
! 3
| '''M39-M40''' - The House held power during an era of stagnation and collapse, perhaps taking advantage of fallen rivals.
|-
! 4-5

|-
! 6-7

|-
! 8-9
| '''Late M41''' - The House arose within in the last few centuries. Barring disaster, your House likely still exists and holds power and respect in its Hive.
|-
! 10
| '''Recent decades''' - Your House only came to power since the plague that destroyed House Aranthus, perhaps intending to take its place as one of the great Houses.

! colspan="2" |How strong is the House? (d10)
|-
! 1

| '''Significant''' - The House is strong and well-respected, finding success in both business and local gang warfare.

| '''Powerful''' - The House is prominent in the Hive, known and feared for its influence and power.
|-
! 10
| '''Legendary''' - The House has attained truly great power, enough to rival the most powerful Houses of Necromunda. Power comes at a price, however, and the other great Houses may feel inclined to make alliances against the upstart in order to preserve their hegemony.
