a couple days into Noob Influx

[claudiometer]

...It occurs to me that the noobs and returning folks wouldn't necessarily know about the workshop.

Leo set it up while he was here, and once he had the space he opened up bedrooms for literally everyone. They're not super-fancy and now that he's gone there's not really any way to alter the space, but they're not bad rooms for all that - bed, desk, dresser, shared bathroom with one other room.

Some of us have moved out into our own spaces since then, but... I'm sure he wouldn't want it sitting empty. Don't feel like you have to sleep in Liminal, if you just got here-slash-back. I don't know if the pointing hands are still a thing with Leo gone, but the workshop itself is pretty hard to miss.

I don't think I had a place before... so I'll check the Workshop. Thanks for the heads up.

[claudiometer]

I dunno if he had it up to full Hotel Leonardo before we dropped off the map. No problem.

[sharkened]

I don't at least remember there being an offer for created living spaces. Then again, I spent most my time panicking, so...

[awitchdidit]

I also welcome guests at my mansion, although I don't have quite as much space dedicated to bedrooms as Maestro Leonardo does. Look for the door with the big obnoxious eagle motif.

[claudiometer]

There's guests and then there's 'people taking up residence.' I didn't wanna promise any spaces the owners can vouch for.

[That includes her own, but that's mostly because she'd rather know who's living there.]

[awitchdidit]

Ahaha, I'm just starting to think I should have branded my space as a hotel if I actually wanted people to take me up on the offer of sharing it.

...actually, that wouldn't be too difficult a change. I wonder if I could manage it before the next Jaunt.

The beds are also quite comfortable and sturdy enough to carry the weight of a large cat. Some bedrooms have two beds.

[Yes, he sleeps with his panther. All 600 pounds of her.]

[finalizes]

How large is the cat?

[Asking for a friend.]

[naturaltwohands]

She weighs about three or four times as that of a man depending on his size, I would estimate.

[claudiometer]

...Damn, that sure is a sturdy bed.

[naturaltwohands]

It's really quite impressive. And thankfully large enough for us both if she feels like sharing.

[bitofafop]

You sleep with that thing.

[Yes, he's been avoiding Drizzt since their talk, but this is so. Ridiculous and yet entirely unsurprising that he has to say something.]

[naturaltwohands]

[Of course this gets you to start addressing him again.]

You try telling her to sleep on the floor.

[icanhearscreams]

[Well someone sounds sleepy.]

... No one cares if you use them? Sounds... useful.

[claudiometer]

Nope. And considering it's persisted in his absence, you don't have to worry about your bedroom suddenly being gone during a jaunt, either.

[icanhearscreams]

... Do they lock at all?

[pionero]

[ Not. A. Fan. Of. Voices in his head. ]

So, we just roommate with everyone else in this workshop. Just like that.

[claudiometer]

Just the bathroom. And you don't have to, I mean, you can camp out in the arcade if you really want. But this is relatively hospitable as Liminal Space goes.

[Alternately, if he's found someone he trusts who has a created space, he might be able to finagle a room out of them. But since he just got here and is extremely closed off, Claudia would be very surprised if that were the case.]

[pionero]

Hmph. [ There is a pause. ] How many rooms are in this Workshop?

[highnoonsomewhere]

Thankee kindly, darlin', but seein' as how there's a lot of 'hard to miss' places around right now for us new fellas, would you mind being a little more specific? I'd hate to just go wanderin' in to someone's home.

[claudiometer]

[What follows is a brief livestream of the workshop's front door.]

[highnoonsomewhere]

Much obliged. There any sort of charge for this kinda thing, or is it more a free bunk until you find your own place?

[bitofafop]

[He is never going to get used to hearing someone else in his head. This is grating. But.]

I'd been introduced to the workshop, but I was unaware those rooms were open to anyone.

[At least now he and maybe Jarlaxle can crash somewhere that isn't the bright and noisy arcade.]

But if someone wished to have their own space, how would you go about that?

[claudiometer]

That takes a little more doing. You have to get used to working with Liminal Space first, and you almost certainly won't get from zero to rooms before we're popped off into a jaunt.

[thornsofmalkav]

So how it works is that the rooms that have been claimed have the names written in chalk on little slates on the door. Look for one that hasn't been claimed, take the key for it, and write your name with the chalk Leo provided. Boom, you've claimed a room.

When you learn how to make stuff out of liminal material, you can decorate it.
