Current maintenance cost: 17gp/month
Want a better house? Here's a table with some upgrade options? Along with a better house and better lifestyle comes more social status, the chance to host dinner parties, and a bunch of other ways to turn money into opportunities rather than living in what's essentially a very large hovel. Naturally there are roleplaying-based ways to adjust the costs and benefits, and this list isn't exhaustive. If you want to see something added, leave a comment, and we'll work it out.
