Player Housing
Where the player lives, trains his slaves, prepares his meals and sleeps at night.
When starting a new game your initial house is in the slums, and one of your first actions should be to head to the Real Estate Office to get some better housing.
Moving to a new quarter requires a 10 days rent in advance, with a one time agency commission fee.
To gain housing permission for a quarter, you must sell a slave to an NPC within the desired faction to raise your reputation with them.
Your choice of housing will affect the Slaver's mood, based on his reputation. If his reputation is low, he'll tolerate cheaper living quarters, but as he gains reputation he'll demand a house more deserving of his stature.
Rent prices are halved on custom easy, and quadrupled on extreme difficulty.

*The Fiend Pen is empty until you have captured a fiend that has burst out of a slave. This kills the slave. **The Border of the Fogs slum has no access to a bathroom, kitchen or extensions, making hygiene & training difficult as well as lowering morale and personality. It's recommended to move ASAP. In addition, although the slums has no rent, the moneylender will impose a "debt" upon the player every 100 days they live there starting on day 200. The moneylender extorts 250 sparks every 100 days, except on day 200 when he extorts 125 sparks instead. The deadline of the debt will be 60 days from the day it is imposed. If the player is already in debt to the moneylender, the sparks will be added to the debt, and the deadline of the entire debt will be extended to 60 days from the extortion.
Extended Rental
There are additional rooms you can rent from the real estate office which allow various actions to be taken.
- Dungeon - Can be used to store an additional slave that isn't being trained. They still must be fed and this will not improve their mood (increases obedience?). Having this also unlocks torturing equipment and allows you to use a hot iron to brand your slaves. Also unlocks Spider and Sea Tentacle sex training (in Jack HF).
- Boudoir - Spare room for your slave to sleep in. Increases her mood.
- Laboratory - Allows you to personally train alchemists and hire a tutor instead of sending the slave off to school, also allows you to brew potions.
- Fiend pit - Lets you capture and milk a feed for cheap slave food. See: Fiend.
- Barn - After modifying slaves at the Medical Center. You can keep a Cow (slave with permanent lactation), Chicken (slave with oviparity), Pig (slave slaughtered for meat) and a Farmhand to look after them. See: Barn.
Interior Design
In addition, each section of the home and it's rented extensions interior design can be customised to various styles for a one time fee. This is not simply a visual difference: "premium" decor will positively affect slaver's mood and personality, while "budget" decor will not.
While living in the slums, nothing can be customized and all customizable locations have an internal prestige value of -1. Outside of the slums, each decoratable item has a prestige of either 0 or 1. The Necro-Gothic, Elite, Classical, Luxurious, Modern, Slaver, Stylish, Victorian, and 'alcove' (unused) styles all have a prestige of 1, while all other styles have a prestige of 0.
