As you approach you notice a dark-furred, hooded Nyulop.
"Hmm, what? A place to stay?" You can't be sure as their face is shrouded, but part of you believes they're offering you a rather incredulous look. Is this not your job? "I suppose I can help you with that." They say, grabbing a clipboard off the countertop and reaching for a pen. "Now, what kind of housing are you looking for exactly? I'm going to need details here, so maybe take a seat. We've got a lot to figure out."
HOUSING UPGRADES
What Are Housing Upgrades?
Housing upgrades are the special additions that can be added to the base home everyone starts off with to customize and personalize each character’s home to make it special and unique to them and their family and needs. Upgrades range from extra rooms for children, special rooms for pets, to large-scale projects like barns and fields for animals. What upgrades and the number of upgrades which are available depend on the type of housing. Some housing upgrades also are tied to jobs* and can be used to generate Capella!
* The job system is still under works, but the upgrades can still be bought and used, just not able to generate money at this time! [Feb.2022] . Upgrades marked with ** are tied to a job function.

How Do I Get A Home?
Starter homes are 5 Ringel, and cannot be reduced in price by prompts. The base home includes a master bedroom, one extra room, bathroom, living room, and kitchen. Expansions can be purchased for various amounts of Ringel, and can be reduced in price by drawing prompts
Afterwards, whenever you’re building add-ons to your home you only need to do one prompt for each upgrade being added. If you’re not a fan of the work, you can circumvent the need to do prompts by opting to pay the price of each upgrade instead and get the addition instantly.
If you would like to build your home expansions through prompts, you can choose from the list of the following prompts or come up with your own so long as they clearly show the expansions construction being the main focus or its construction as the main intent of the prompt:
- Choosing materials for the expansion
- Sketching room concepts
- Choosing paints for the room
- Bringing materials to the construction site
- Helping the construction (Building rooms, floors, the roof, etc.)
- Putting together furniture
- Decorating the rooms
- Painting the walls
