About sharing quarters with a group/faction.

Post by Cabarcos » Mon Sep 26, 2022 1:40 pm

This week I was lucky enough to get one of the big rooms at the Inn in front of the Arcane Tower.
I am considering using that room as a base of operations for a faction/adventuring group.
The character is level 12 and has already met some people who look nice to party with.
Any advice?

Share it by making keys rather than making it accessible to an entire faction. It allows you to keep track of who has access to the room, and if someone does start stealing or doing other malevolent things you can just reset the room to disable the keys.

Sounds goods. I'll do that.

There are lots of setups depending on your intention for the place, but keys are definitely the best IC option. It avoids any OOC issues that might come up over disguised names, gives you an easy fix to any stealing problem, but also gives your enemies a potential way in.

Some people see this as a bad thing, however it can really contribute to spy RP in a big way. You can also label your keys in the basin!

Try harder! Help set a good example of roleplay for the server culture.

Yes, it doesn't have to be bad. Judge a man by the enemies he makes and all that :)

Make it available to faction members is a lot easier. Just to not keep anything too expensive in the chest.
