As I just mentioned before, I’m posting this for the group to answer. Fandom? Got an answer for Anon?

I just like to imagine Lestat picking out “coven colors” and symbols and being very exclusive on who gets to join.

^I think you meant this in a more fun way than I responded in my previous post, but I think I have some level of responsibility to take certain issues more seriously… Group dynamics that deal with suggesting that character X being very exclusive on who gets to join, even in an [unofficial] sort of House or Clan, has the potential to trample on someone’s headcanons and hurt feelings. 

I’m a casual consumer of series that have Clans/Houses and I admit that I don’t really understand the appeal of organizing and teaming up characters (as with the Sorting Hat in HP). However, I know that there are many VC fans who love organizing and teaming up characters this way, choosing symbols and colors, and so anyone is free to answer more along those lines, and please note that anyone who chooses to do so, let’s assume they are doing it for fun and not to trample on anyone’s headcanons or hurt anyone’s feelings.
