• I have Pitlord (COTA 093) in play and my opponent plays Restringuntus (COTA 094) and chooses house Dis. What happens when I try to declare my house on my next turn?
  During the Choose a House step of your next turn, you will be in a position where you must choose house Dis (because of Pitlord’s ability), but also cannot choose house Dis (because of Restinguntus). Cannot effects take precedence over must effects, thus you cannot choose Dis. You may choose either of your other houses.

• If my opponent has a maverick Pitlord (COTA 093) in a deck that does not contain house Dis and I play Flame-Wreathed (COTA 106) on one of my opponent’s creatures while Pitlord is out, does my opponent now control a Dis card and is forced to choose house Dis?
  No, Flame-Wreathed itself is still under your control, even if it's attached to an opponent's creature.

• I have a maverick Pitlord in play in a deck without house Dis. Am I forced to choose house Dis as my active house?
  No. You cannot choose an active house unless it is on your identity card or you control a card of that house. This restriction overrides Pitlord’s effect, allowing you to choose any of your houses as your active house.
