The House of Lords and Ladies (founded June 26th, 2006 on Calypso ) is a society of colonists that join together to enjoy a great variety of activities within Entropia Universe. The society was funded and is internally is lead by Grand Master of the House Carloz DeFortissimo. Although he has relegated official society leadership to give himself higher mobility between the main society and its Orders, he still rules as head leader.

The overall requirements to join are being an active player and a good disposition. Though it is required to be at least 20 years old, the age requirement is sometimes overlooked in favor of favorable applicants.

History

Though the society was officially founded on Calypso in 2006, the history of The House goes back into the last century. It started in 1999 as a group of Quake players who grouped to shun the arrogance of high level players and celebrate nobility of spirit and friendly interaction. They offered respite from aggressive players in a land dubbed "The Outragezone". Early names for the group were "D-Outraged", "Fallen Lords" and "Dark Lords".

In the early spring of 2000 the clan adopted the name of "The House of Lords" with Sir OZ, Sir G00dlike and Sir Fegee as core founders. The clan continued gaining strength and members in subsequent years.

In 2006, three members of the clan - Sir DeFortisimo, Sir Face and Sir Shike - joined Entropia Universe (then Project Entropia) and founded the society "The House of Lords and Ladies" under the same tenants and philosophy that sustained the original clan.

The House of Lords and Ladies is subdivided into three orders to better accommodate different playstyles and to strengthen the society's hierarchy.
