House Icons were activated just now.

The seven Houses that requested Icons before all others have been
given the privilege of having their House Icons made operational
first. Each of those House Icons exists in a pocket of the plane
of Nishnatoba, and casts a visible shadow (called the Shadow Icon)
at some point within Sapience.

For now, the House Icons may be strengthened, but not attacked.
Attack will be accomplished via the use of Alchemists gained by
use of the Leadership system.

These Alchemists are not yet available, but will be soon.

In the meantime, refer to HELP ICONS and the many related HELP
scrolls on that topic.

Several new Icon-related commands are now available to house
members. They are also documented in the relevant HELP scrolls.

Congratulations to the brave trailblazing houses - Wardens,
Sentaari, Warlocks, CIJ, Dawnstriders, Occultists, and
Congregation! They now reap the benefits, as they also expose
themselves to the hazards, of the Great Icons and their powers!
