Hodgepodge
On occasion, I do get a request to decorate someone else’ house. Refreshing since I spend so much time decorating my own. These requests typically come in one of a few ways. Either the owner already has furniture, and simply wants me to arrange it and fill in the blanks – or the owner has nothing and I build them a home from scratch, trying to suit their personalities some what. I always try to make the home suit the character if that makes sense.
Ogres are no different from all the other races out there in Norrath let me tell you. Pictured above is the gentleman’s club section of my latest project, a house for a well learned ogre. The main entrance consists of a museum type display section, along with his vast library collection. In the center platform (if you’re familiar with 5-room Freeport homes at all) is a games room with a bar. I haven’t decided what I’m doing with the rest of the space yet. I’m contemplating turning the upstairs room into either a kitchen, or a cave-type bedroom. It will depend on my mood. I like the way the house has turned out so far though.
Calreth ended up moving his 70 wizard warlock over to Najena – and everyone kept it a secret from me until the following morning. What a great surprise! I love having good friends around and Calreth is one of my closest. I’m also pleased that Nostalgia is growing by little leaps. I never wanted it to develop into something that large – but the recruits we have been getting are nice and polite and friendly, even if not everyone is on all the time.
I’ve been working on my cloak of flames for the dirge – it’s very slow going. I managed to collect my remaining page from lesser faydark late last night (insomnia sucks) and I have three pages left. One from Loping plains, one from New Tunaria, and one from Mistmoore Catacombs. So, that will be the project for today – hopefully. Since the revamp of the heritage quests (and since all other cloaks worth having have evaded me thus far) it’s a significant upgrade to the plain crafted one I’m wearing.
