This will have to be prettied up, but for now, a splat of stuff! Mostly stuff copied out of the news file IG. It'll probably need to be reorganized for wiki consumption, and probably split into subpages? Who knows. May be easier to just use a table of contents and list it all in one place. Wiki is nicer that way than TinyMUX.

Fate's Harvest staff has a fairly open stance on builds. Players can, effectively, have as many separate builds as they can ICly afford.

Build Requests

Every build request, be it for a private home, a business or a Hollow (Changeling only), should be sent in via the command: +req/build

In the body of the request, please include:

  • Type of build (private, group, business, Hollow)
  • The coordinate and name of where it will be on the grid (MT04, Town Square)
  • Character's dots in applicable merits (Resources)
  • The project's name (A White House, Mandy's Pub & Grill)
  • Number of rooms
  • Room names (and how they connect to each other!)
  • Exit names (if none are given, staff will use linked room's name)

Sample Request

+req/build My Dream Home=
Build type: private
Coord: FB12
Merits: Resources 4, Luxury
Project name: Slate Mansion
Room #: 7
Rooms: I know we're only supposed to have five, but I really wanted to fit in some gardens and a ballroom. Henry's just come into money, and he wants to make himself look good for the ladies!
Entry Hall - links to FB12, Ballroom, Sitting Room and Dining Hall

Dining Hall - links to Entry Hall
Sekrit Laboratory - dark exit from the bedroom 'pull lever'
Grand Bedroom - links to Sitting Room
Rose Gardens - links to Sitting Room
Ballroom - links to Entry Hall
I don't really care what the other exit names are. Just use what you want.
Thanks so much, awesome staff people! ;)

Build Limits

Build policy includes the following limitations:

Single-owner builds:

  • No more than 5 rooms per build.
    • Staff will only approve 5+ room builds if they fit the theme or are otherwise justified.

Multi-owner builds:

  • No more than 20 rooms, total. It doesn't matter how many people are involved.

Business builds:

  • Businesses follow the same rules as other builds, with greater lenience on room limitations.
  • If you are a business, you must be on +dir.

How do I know if my build is a business?

  • If you sell a product, support, or offer a service, you are a business.
  • If you are a public place, or offer amenities (parks, playgrounds) you are a business.

You are not a business if you are a private home. Fairly easy logic there. Even if you do have employees (butlers, servants, drivers) or offer tours of the property to make people drool over your moolah, you are not a public entity.

Hollow Requests

Trying to build a Hollow? Shoot up a +req/build (not fae) with the same basic details as the example above.

The Hollow merits are applied to your sheet by staff. You cannot purchase them with +xp/buy.

In your Hollow build request, please include any dots in the specific merits (Size/Amenities/Wards etc.) you will be purchasing.
