Line 4: Each character has a Rank, varying from Two through the Face Cards, and belongs to a Suit (Hearts, Clubs, Spades and Diamonds,) just like in a regular deck of cards. Newcomers start out as Twos, but can move up through the Ranks through things called Challenges. Lower Ranks are typically more serving/working-class, while higher Ranks are more involved in the running of their specific Suit. The community can be found [http://community.livejournal.com/houseofcards-rp/profile here.] Not to be confused with the [[House of Cards (British series)\|the TV show.]] {{tropelist}}▼ ▲{{tropelist}} * [[Anyone Can Die]]: Not even the Royals are exempt from this. * [[Babies Ever After]]: Best seen in the [[Alternate Universe]] "Grimverse." Which [[Ironic Name\|isn't so grim]] after all. Line 15: * [[Finishing Each Other's Sentences]]: Heroes/Villains-verse heroic twins Eileen and Darren, thanks to [[Twin Telepathy]]. And, well. General telepathy. * [[Full Name Ultimatum]]: {{quote\| ''[http://sixwordstories.livejournal.com/70619241.html?thread{{=}}2094879593#t2094879593 "Evan Aaron Benjamin McCartney!"]''}} * [[Heroic BSOD]]: Chives, after Urania telling him she was pregnant. {{quote\| ''[http://houseofcards-rp.livejournal.com/404431.html?thread{{=}}6452687#t6452687 "There's no change in expression.

Line 23: * [[Past Right Now]] * [[Standard Royal Court]] * [[Tangled Family Tree]]: One of the [[Alternate Universe\|Alternate Universes]], the "[[The Lord of the Rings\|Lord of the Cards]]"-verse, has this. Can likely also be seen in many old Deck families due to interbreeding. * [[You Called Me "X" - It Must Be Serious]]: Or [[Tear Jerker\|Heartbreaking]], in the case of Rachel [http://houseofcards-rp.livejournal.com/154440.html?thread=2087496#t2087496 calling her beloved niece by her proper name] instead of the usual, fond, "little one" in Marcus' execution. ---- Line 43: {{reflist}} [[Category:Journal Roleplay]] [[Category:House Ofof Cards RP(roleplay)]] [[Category:Roleplay]] [[Category:Pages Needing an Entry Pimp]]
