QUOTE(Grits @ Feb 9 2017, 01:52 PM)  I didn’t realize that you could fast-travel from anywhere to a home for free. I thought you had to go from a Wayshrine or travel to a player who was already there. That adds immense value to homes! Some of them are very handily located. mALX, Elke stopped by your Stros M’Kai mansion today – it is gorgeous! Private beach!! Yay! I love how you have arranged conversation groups and put the fire pits inside. Very nice! Elke finally got the keys to her Mara’s Kiss room, which she promptly named “Elke’s Closet.” She is apparently a touch claustrophobic. Jerric bought a bed for his room at the brothel. Now he is all moved in. Holy Cow, a Jerric sized bed! Yes, you can travel to any of the homes, owned or not by clicking on their image in the maps; but on the owned houses you can also leave them by the door and step out into the neighborhood - very convenient if they are handy to a wayshrine. (unowned houses will send you off to some random wayshrine, usually around your hotel room you got doing the quest). And your own houses, of course - just click on them on the map and voila! There is never any charge to travel to the houses. The houses closest to Wayshrines are Mara's Inn in Vulkhel Guard; The Flaming Nix Inn in Mournhold (and that one is convenient to the Master Crafter Writ guy and all crafting stuff); and the Cyrodiilic Jungle House in Malobal Tor at the Bandari Trading Post. (and that one is also convenient to merchants) - and the Ebony Flask Inn is not that far from the Wayshrine and merchants. The Hunding place is inconvenient to any wayshrines, so when I want to leave I just hop over to the Mara Inn and step out the door of the Inn. Very convenient to get around! QUOTE(Acadian @ Feb 9 2017, 02:30 PM)  mALX, Buffy figures if she contributes a bit to your mansion, you'll continue to let her freeload visit. Grits - Jerric all moved in - Eeep! There's not a little wood elf struggling to breathe beneath him, is there?!? She doesn't need to contribute, she is always welcome! But that doesn't mean I didn't love getting the bench, lol.

Speaking of beds, I found my first purple plan! And it's 3 things I like very much! (Khajiit, bed and canopy) Unfortunately Khajiit canopy beds are still terrible in that you can't actually hop inside them and nap nor can you place things inside the canopy. I hope they fix that soon, but then it's been that way since before the update. Also, it's too big for any house I currently own so I guess it won't get any use anyways.

I see how you "found" that purple plan, That bed Jerric is on is the "Redguard Full." I guess the Redguard think they are Orc or something, all their beds but one are enormous.

It's where most of my plans come from. :V Looks like the price is rapidly dropping, though, so maybe by next week I'll start buying them instead of going through everything. More time for material gathering. EVERY bed but the single ones are huge, regardless of race. I'm turbo upset that the canopy ones can't be jumped into, regardless of style (I saw a Breton one in Rivenspire) which makes me sad because they look nice. Ah well. Looks like either the Ebony Flask room is really big or the Mara's Kiss room is tragically small. Hates got the room, but it technically belongs to Dravean. He's got a backstory now, apparently. So much for being a crafting monkey with no identity.

QUOTE(Arcry @ Feb 10 2017, 04:19 PM)  No one ever sees the pale Dunmer at the Ebony Flask for long. He is never out in the day, never takes company, and most strange of all, never orders any of the inn's food. The time that he does spend outside is seemingly always a night and he never seems to spare any time with the patrons or inn keeper at all. .. I bet a Skooma Runner is looking pretty good right now to Canthion. Rather than the obvious irate Dunmer Vampire.
To the point, Raslon has dreams of moving out of his little hovel into the mansion by the mountain, The Ebonheart Chateau.
 How did I miss all this? This is hilarious! QUOTE(monkeyemoness @ Feb 10 2017, 05:58 PM)  QUOTE(mALX @ Feb 9 2017, 05:42 PM)  BWAAHAA!!!

So much for being a crafting monkey with no identity. I went ahead and got all three, and as soon as I furnish them Bubba (the Crafter) and Pantsless Calia (the perpetual troublemaker) will be moving into the Daggerfall and Vulkhel Guard rooms and stop living in the bank! (and Misa will be staying at the Ebony Flask (and writing in her diary every night about the goings on there, lol).

Screens or it didn't happen!  Just kidding. I took the rocks from the Hunding place and sank them through the floor of the Ebony Flask, then stacked up any crates from Hunding in there. I found out I can't give them away to anyone, so will have to eventually destroy them. I'm keeping them now just in case some reason comes up that I need them for whatever.

I feel like the Ebony Flask room is the least tiny of the inn rooms. I'm going to pretend there's a very good reason for that for Dravean's backstory's sake. :V Anyways, Hates had plenty of gold left over from buying Strident Springs Demense, leaving her with the choice of either Humblemud or The Ample Domicile. She found the former to serve her needs better. She isn't much of a homebody, and a small village of Argonian farmers is the perfect place to lay low and keep her stuff. Also, the bank/crafting hall is only a few steps away. If there were writ boards, it'd be perfect. I also find that Argonian mud huts are way too open for both our tastes. Maybe she'll get Ample Domicile eventually. Jo'zira was a hundred thousand short for Sleek Creek House, so I had him dip into the motif fund to get that as well. I still have well over 300k for motifs, so it's fine. His home has the opposite problem, being one of the most populated zones/cities in the game, meaning he'll probably have to pick up writs in Craglorn as well. All that's left is furniture now. Speaking of, Eolan finally got a bed! It might be a little small for him alone, even without the cat-children. It does look comfy, tho.

It really is a good feeling to get that first piece of furniture in those drab tiny rooms, kind of changes the whole atmosphere of them!
