Here's a list of the first 25 houses of Menzoberranzan with their allies and rivals listed.
House Baenre
First House of Menzoberranzan
Chief Alliances: Gains strong support from House Faen Tlabbar (#3), House Xorlarrin (#4), and House Agrach Dyrr (#5), although the greatest amount of immediate support can be received from the houseless rogues of Bregan D'aerthe. Also allied with minor houses Vandree (16th), Millithor (21st), Dhaazir (22nd), Pharn (24th) and Abaeir (25th).
Chief Rivals: No house would openly reveal enmity for House Baenre, but House Barrison Del'Armgo (#2), because of its ranking and because it hasn’t apparently sealed any pacts with Baenre, has been closely watched by the powerful First Matron Mother.
House Barrison Del'Armgo
Second House of Menzoberranzan
Chief Alliances: House Barrison Del'Armgo has no known allies within Menzoberranzan.
Chief Rivals: Quietly, House Baenre (#1) seems to be Barrison Del'Armgo’s principle rival. No other house really poses any threat to the superbly trained forces of the second house, though they do fear a conspiracy between Faen Tlabbar, Xorlarrin, and Agrach Dyrr, the 3rd, 4th, and 5th houses respectively, all allies of House Baenre. Also, House Vandree (16th) seems in line for trouble. Watches minor houses allied with Baenre, such as houses Millithor (21st), Dhaazir (22nd), Pharn (24th) and Abaeir (25th).
House Faen Tlabbar
Third House of Menzoberranzan
Chief Alliances: Strong supporter of House Baenre (#1); has longstanding truce with House Xorlarrin (#4). Also allied with minor houses Vandree (16th), Millithor (21st), Dhaazir (22nd), Pharn (24th) and Abaeir (25th).
Chief Rivals: Faen Tlabbar worries most paranoically about attack from Houses Agrach Dyrr (#5) and Mizzrym (#6).
House Xorlarrin
Fourth House of Menzoberranzan
Chief Alliances: Has been known to aid the activities of House Baenre (#1); has longstanding truce with House Faen Tlabbar (#3). Also allied with minor houses Vandree (16th), Millithor (21st), Dhaazir (22nd), Pharn (24th) and Abaeir (25th).
Chief Rivals: The Xorlarrins worry most about attack from Houses Agrach Dyrr (#5) and Mizzrym (#6).
House Agrach Dyrr
Fifth House of Menzoberranzan
Chief Alliances: Supporter of House Baenre (#1); has longstanding truce with House Mizzrym (#6). Also allied with minor houses Vandree (16th), Millithor (21st), Dhaazir (22nd), Pharn (24th) and Abaeir (25th).
Chief Rivals: House Agrach Dyrr covets the position of House Faen Tlabbar (#3); it tries to remain ready for an attack from any quarter.
House Mizzrym
Sixth House of Menzoberranzan
Chief Alliances: House Mizzyrm has pacts of alliance with all seven of the other ruling houses; it intends to honor those with House Baenre (#1) and House Xorlarrin (#4). It has also cultivated relationships with many of the minor houses; however, these might be dissolved at any moment it seems convenient for the Mizzrym interests.
Chief Rivals: House Mizzrym is envious of the position of House Faen Tlabbar (#3), and is working toward its destruction.
House Fey-Branche
Seventh House of Menzoberranzan
Chief Alliances: House Fey-Branche has long practiced fawning adulation for the houses of higher status; it has no formal alliance, but is recognized for lackey potential by Houses #1-6.
Chief Rivals: As the seventh house, Fey-Branche fears attack from many lower ranking houses who desire a position on the council. Most particularly, House Duskryn (#9) is perceived as a threat.
House Tuin'Tarl
Eighth House
Chief Alliances: House Tuin'Tarl is known to be weak, and thus no other house is willing to recognize an alliance with it.
Chief Rivals: As the eighth house, Tuin'Tarl fears attack from many lower-ranking houses, most particularly House Duskryn (#9).
House Duskryn
Ninth House
Chief Alliances: House Duskryn has formed a solid alliance with House Srune'Lett (#10).
Chief Rivals: Because of its numerous troops, House Duskryn fears no house beneath its station; it has many offensive desires, including attacks against House Fey-Branche (#7) and House Tuin'Tarl (#8).
House Srune'lett
Tenth House
Chief Alliances: Srune'Lett has tried to form several alliances recently, including a
bond with House Faen Tlabbar (#3), and House Duskryn (#9). None of these initiatives has met with success. The Srune'lett have accepted peace initiatives from House Mizzrym (#6), but have been rightfully suspicious of their sincerity.
Chief Rivals: Srune'Lett attracts the interest of many ambitious, lower-ranking houses, including Druu'giir (#13) and Hunzrin (#14). The house is cautiously going along with House Mizzrym with plans to strike against House Xorlarrin (#4).
House Horlbar
Eleventh House
