Housing
Along with basic living expenses, all of the Heroes of Schwanheim get a place to stay. For most, the default living space is in the castle. There's a few sprawling wings that are now dedicated to the heroes, providing they can put up with living with so many nosy NPCs, well meaning maids, and the hustle and bustle of day to day castle life. Princes and Princesses get the more grand rooms, Wizards and Sages get to live up in the towers (where it's quieter, but dreadfully hot), and Knights get the wing by the stables. Everyone else is just shoved in whatever room is empty this week.
The Drunk Duck Tavern and Inn has plenty of rooms, also free of charge. Here, the annoyances of NPCs involve the drunks and reliance on the questionable cooking of the innkeeper. Still, it's quieter than the castle in terms of busybodies, but still a temporary rest at best.
The Monastery is another place heroes can stay, so long as they don't the monks going about their business at the godly hours of morning. The lodgings are minimal, but comfortable, and the food plain, but hearty. It's quiet, but anyone staying they may be pestered to attend services. Or at least given Looks until they do.
If one thinks to pester the King or his minions, a hero can gain ownership (or at least free rent) of a house in or near town. These houses are the better accommodations for non royalty and those who just want to see to their own needs. Ranging from 2 to 6 bedrooms of various sizes, these homes have all the basics, kitchen (with wood stove and mostly running water if you take good care of the pump), pantry, sitting room, outhouse, and some even boast their own private bath! It's encouraged that heroes share these homes, and single people asking for them may be told to go find a roommate or something because empty homes in the capital are hard to come by. A map can be found that lists the homes available.
In addition, the Hero's Headquarters in the Rich district has quiet a few rooms open. It's an old manor, not in the best of shape, as it was abandoned many years, but it's in the process of being repaired. Be prepared to put in some elbow grease to help clean and fix up the house if you move in here! But it's free of NPCs and there are many secrets to be discovered still about why it was left abandoned and what it holds in all those hard to reach areas. See this entry for more.
Outside the town there is a scattering of old farm houses, cottages, huts and hobbit holes that can be found and claimed. It's advised that a hero be sure that the home is unoccupied before planting his or her flag on the soil.
If you would like your character to claim a home, please reply here with your character name and where you want them to be living.
