Your Home
From Elona Wiki
It's your sweet home.
Your Home is where you live and is initially located near Vernis on the world map.
You will start the game in Your Home with <Lomias> and <Larnniere>, who will give you an optional tutorial, start you on the main quest and give you some background fluff. Telling them to get out will give you three pieces of furniture, otherwise they will eventually leave on their own.
Your house can be rearranged and designed as you see fit using a combination of dropping and moving items and the house board's design function. Dropping furniture will increase your house rank, which earns you a 30gp/rank salary. To rename Your Home, use the house board to hire a maid and then ask them to think of a new name.
In addition to the house board, your home will have a freezer (stores food indefinitely), salary box (where you collect your pay) and heir trunk (used with deeds of heirship). These cannot be used outside of your home. If they are destroyed or lost, you can buy new ones at The Embassy.
Anybody staying in your home will have the drunk symbol above their head whenever you return. They aren't actually drunk; they were just having a bit of fun while you weren't around.

[edit] House details
You can replace your home by using the appropriate deeds at a suitable location on the world map; however, you cannot build your new home over your old home. Your new home will revert to its default layout and everything that was in your old home will be placed in a pile in your new home. All your servants from your old house will be gone when you construct a new one, while party members left at the old home will be waiting for you in the new home.

[edit] House board
Using the house board will give you the following options:-

- Recruit a member (or servant) allows you to hire maids, guards and merchants for your home.
- Move a member (or stayer) allows you manually move anybody currently staying in your house.

[edit] Houseguests
If you have hired a maid, you will be able to meet guests at your house. Guests will wait for your next visit but no more than three with be waiting at any time. If you don't have a maid, they will still queue up.
- Adventurers may just be visiting, share a drink, or give a token of friendship; you may also trade equipment with them, as normal.
- Citizens just wanted to stop by.
- Guild Trainers will train your potential up to three times in one month. If you aren't in a guild, a trainer from any of the guilds may appear and the price is 4 platinum. If you are in a guild, only the trainer from your guild will appear and the price is lowered to 3 platinum.
- Warriors' guild trainer trains Strength, Constitution and Dexterity.
- Thieves' guild trainer trains Dexterity, Perception and Learning.
- Mages' guild trainer trains Will, Magic and Charisma.
- Shopkeepers are like the Wandering Vendors and blackmarket vendors. They have a small range of goods with a high shop rank.
- Beggars will ask for gold. Giving it to them raises your karma by 2.
- Punks will ask if you're ready... by which they mean ready for sex.
- <Mysteric Producer> will ask if you want to be a star... which starts by having sex with them.
