It is "rent me" and it works in almost all taverns. You can get multiple people in there too!


I've always wondered. Does the charge with this go up for more people or not? I -always- forget to check.
I remember recruiting this Half elf girl. And IMMEDIATELY taking her out on a contract. Right as we go into this gith hole I tell her "Remember your training, and you'll be fine." and she goes "I have no training." Then she died

Be the change, I like the sound of that!

As for Luir's, that place sees plenty of foot traffic, but I agree, would be nice to safely store shit there... I think even shorter-term storage would be ideal. I can see people wanting to pay 50 to 100 coins for an easy lockbox.

Can we code a way for people to have access to lockboxes? Searchable by the Fist, of course. No privacy, just safe storage. Kurac would make a killing..

Kurac would make an even better killing if they told you "just put it on the table there, we'll watch it for ya."

It isn't Kurac's job to watch your shit. They are not your mama, or your landlord. The merchants sell Kurac-specific shit. The soldiers are members of an ARMY. They are not cops or doormen or concierges.

Sure. But for playability adding storage isnt' actually a bad idea at all.

In Luir's I think only PCs should rent out rooms to PCs, not mindless NPC landlords.

With how many players we are getting, it would be awesome to see Nenyuk come back as playable :D

Meh, if you put something on the General Discussion Board, don't be alarmed if it is Discussed, in a General manner, on the Board.  :)

As far as I understand, there are IC reasons for not having apartments in Luir's. Other areas? So no matter how many times you discuss it in GDB, the resulting response will be 'There won't be coded apartments in Luir's, find out IC.'

Other places? Yeah.. Cities could use many more apartments. I mean, ten times the current amount in differing qualities wouldn't be that much of a stretch. But seems it's already a work in progress, so there's nothing else to discuss, at least for me.
Q  : Where do you piss?
Yam: On elves.
Q  : And if the area, lacks elves at the given time?
Yam: Scan.

Here's a novel idea for people who really think they need storage in Luirs:

Stop packing three mounts with 4 logs each, and bringing them to Luirs to spam-craft into a dozen boxes, which you discover only after the fact, that when you sold 5 of each last time, the merchants never cleared their inventory and just don't need any more.

Stop packing 400 pounds of *anything* on your mount for a trading expedition to Luir's. Maybe next time - bring just ONE chitin carapace, ONE duskhorn hide, ONE or TWO bits of turquoise, and ONE box, ONE or TWO silk garments.

And then, you won't have any need to store anything in Luir's, because you haven't loaded yourself down so ridiculously and unbelievably that you can't unpack everything from your mount and log out for the night in the tavern. Don't bring with you what you can't carry. Even if you're at "absolutely unbelievable" - at least you can carry it all.

Edit: Nyr is right, Barz is right, and I truly do not care about this. Here then, is the proof of that.

I've been following this thread for a little while now, and I'm beginning to get faint whiffs of hostility and can't for the life of me figure out why.

I have found in my apartment experiences which is mostly witnessing other people with apartments as I rarely have my own... is that it is used for some vast amount of storage.  Also, for a place to have some private conversations or kill someone or mudsex.  Plenty of times the people who are renting apartments don't actually use them "very" often, and they have them because they log in, pay rent, and log back out again because they do not want to lose their storage.

Now, I am sure not everyone is like this but I have seen it myself.

If everyone wants to have storage you don't really need apartments as much as... well, storage.  But for someone who wants a living space to participate in roleplay and actually live there, sure!  More apartments!  But, how about a Hostel styled environment that perhaps has an entrance and not everyone is allowed inside the place unless they pay(and it is MUCH cheaper than an apartment).  This allows for a communal living area with a few rooms/beds, but it is more like a barracks inside of any of the Houses/Clans.  You wouldn't leave a bunch of stuff sitting around cause it might be stolen, but you could sleep in a bit more confidence and "hang out" with friends there.

It might also end up being a nice roleplay area with people gathering in their respective spots/rooms of this Hostel building.

Harmless, if you don't care about the issue, please pick your words more carefully.  We're not saying "if you can't say anything nice, don't say anything at all."  There is room for disagreement since we're discussing stuff we like quite a bit as a hobby.  However, if you're going to conflate a devil's advocate position with mockery of the positions of other players on the GDB without a better description of what you're doing, you're likely to just get labeled as a troll and banned from the board.  It's partially what you're saying (not really sure what that is, you have multiple positions) and it's also how you're saying it.

With appropriate roleplay of course.

My only complaint about apartments is that I would like to be able to crowd more people in. Awesome would be if the a available storage space shrunk the more people occupied the place. But when I played a poor commoner mom, I couldn't fit all my kids in. I could fit all their crap, but I could only rent with one or two of them.

I had an apartment in Luir's. It was friggin' awesome.
I'm taking an indeterminate break from Armageddon for the foreseeable future and thereby am not available for mudsex.
