Up a broad stair from Main Street in Midgaard (west of the Market Square) climbs the Lane of Houses: narrow houses of honey-coloured stone, each with its numbered door. One of them can be yours.
The price
A house costs 50,000 gold (from your purse first, then your bank) and 300 quest points: a goal for the heroes, earned over a few evenings of quests. You buy it in the Lane, with house buy.
What it gives you
- A room you make yours: its name (
house name, colours allowed) and its description (house describe). - A chest for twenty objects (
house store,house take,house chest). It is yours for ever: what it holds is never lost, and a remort keeps it. - Home from anywhere:
hometakes you there, except in a fight or from a room you cannot recall from. It tires you (half your moves). - Peace: nobody fights in a house, and nobody comes in but you and your guests.
The furniture
house upgrade chest- Twenty more places in the chest, three times: 20,000 gold and 100 quest points each.
house upgrade bed- Hit points come back three times faster in your house: 15,000 gold and 50 quest points.
house upgrade hearth- Mana comes back three times faster in your house: 15,000 gold and 50 quest points.
house upgrade trophies- A trophy rack of your deeds, for every visitor to see (house trophies): your First Deeds, the bosses of the Spire you slew first, your crowns of the Grand Arena, the champions of the Mob Arena, your wars, your mightiest blow. 10,000 gold and 50 quest points.
Guests
house invite <name>- Ten guests at most; they come in from the Lane.
house visit <owner>- In the Lane: enter the house of someone who invited you.
house uninvite <name>- No longer a guest.
house expel [name]- Show visitors the door, back to the Lane.
In the web client, the House square (under You) does all of this: buy, name and describe, the chest, the furniture, the guests and the trophies. In the game: help house.
