Rumor woods – Stables & Lofts Announcement

on #event-announcements channel

With this upcoming Rumor Woods, we are going to be rolling out the ability to purchase a loft for everyone that wants to obtain one. Lofts are only accessible through your stall. A ladder that will be placed in your stall once you have paid for the loft upgrade with the stablehand. You will be able to purchase this only in the stable that your stall is located.

The base loft is a room that has a railing in it, peering at the railing allows you to have a wizard window to display your stored mounts ambients.

All lofts can be upgraded from their run-of-the-mill look to one of five options. As soon as you upgrade your loft, you will gain access to the following room props:
A rope suspended from the rafters allows you to swing down into your stall.
A hay-filled bed (new script).
A window (InnFun Script).
A lantern (you can turn it on and off).
A rug (scripted).
A seat of some kind (scripted).

While the loft can never have storage items, we have not removed the ones you can obtain for your stall. While the loft is not noded, you can purchase a node upgrade certificate.

There will also be vouchers that allow you to CUSTOMIZE each of the room props, which can only ever have a SHOW description. Included in the customizations, some props have additional customizations:

Lantern – You can customize if it uses mundane (default) or magical fire.
Seat – You can customize first, third person, and hidden person SIT messaging.
Rope – You can customize departure and arrival messaging for your stall.
Window – All images that can be created via EXHALE can be customized.

Please note: While these are not private properties and they can’t use any of the customization slips or additions that a private property can have, they are customizable to a fairly decent degree. This year, there are five room types, but in future years we may offer more.

Prices:
Stall: 75,000 raikhen
Loft: 25,000 raikhen
Loft Upgrade (addition of six room props): 20,000 raikhen
Loft Prop Customization Slips: 5,000 raikhen (rug & bed), 10,000 raikhen (lantern, seat, rope, and window)
Node Addition: 10,000 raikhen
