Building a Home

To create any sort of home, you need a House Placement Tool, purchaseable from Architects. There is one in Britain, near the Healers/Smithy. Goto a World TP, Custom, LB Castle. Its five steps to the North-East.


Creating a home can be costly, but larger homes hold more items. You have the choice between Classic homes (pre-built) and Custom homes (2-story or 3-story homes you build, The Sims style). You are allowed TWO houses per account. Additional slots can be purchased for 400 ED (includes 50 ED attachment fee).

Next up is finding a plot. You can build anywhere in Trammel, Malas, Magda (a mirror of Malas, specifically for housing), and some parts of Tokuno. The surface must be flat, free of obstructions, and cannot be built close to other homes. One tile East-West, 6 tiles North-South.

Yard Wands

Yard tools can be used to build stuff outside of your home, in your lawn, as well as inside. They can be sold by double clicking on them (this might rotate the item instead. Simply single click for a drop-down menu to sell it). Yard items can also be raised/lowered with an Interior Decorator. You can create bridges that connect homes in this fashion.

Deco Tool - Used to arrange items in your home.

Yard Wand - Used to purchase and place special items in and around your home.
