    Not sure exactly. But I can tell you, for my town, on the overland it shows 3 houses, and I have 14 claimed lots. This would actually be really easy to find out for each level on QA.

    Greetings all
    Also remember the Devotionals strength increas with the number of claimed lots.


    The strength of Player-owned town Devotionals depend on the number of claimed lots; with fewer than 10 claimed lots, they provide the Low value; with 10-19 lots claimed, they provide the Moderate value, and with 20 or more they provide the High value.

    This is how I know that 20 claimed lots will get you 4 houses on the overworld. :)

    I don't know how to tell you exactly, the two new residents have claimed four plots, and before that there were 25 claimed, so between 26 and 29 for all the houses in overland to appear.

    Gargoyle's Rest has undergone major changes.
    Some strange cultists have arrived in the city and have established their headquarters in the area, specifically where no one would think of sticking their heads: in the gargoyle's ass :D

    Before, all the decoration of that area was in the POT, now I have placed a plot, which has allowed me to increase the decoration a lot, a lot.
    If you take a walk around the area, you will see that what used to be an enclosed hedge enclosure is now open to visiting, and at some point I will build a dungeon that will be accessed from there.
    And I have also created a small area for the neighbors to relax, where they can cool off in the shade of the awning, sunbathe in the garden area or "buy" a sandwich and a pint of beer.
    There you will have the company of the homeless man who asks for a coin, the old woman who sells bread and the neighbor on the third floor, who likes to trample the rose bush next to the small pond.

    And, as always, with some details for good observers.
    The cultists have deposited a scroll with an ancient hymn to the god they worship, and two loonies are about to lose their lives.
    What does the text of that ancient hymn say? and where are those loonies? If you are the first to answer both questions, you will earn 30 scrolls (10 recall, 10 friend and 10 zone), 10 ancient essences and 10 taming necklaces.

    Leave your answer and your in-game name here so I can send you the reward (only one winner).

    Would your post not better be found here to catch the most interest of players?
    https://www.shroudoftheavatar.com/forum/index.php?forums/one-time-player-events.2392/

    Edit: Well, my guess would be this:

    And in the claws of the right wing of the gargoyle statue are two dead bodies - are those the two loonies you mean?

    It can't even be called an event, it was something that suddenly occurred to me, when I finished decorating it.
    And yes, those are the two crazy guys, prize!
    What name do I send the reward to?

    Sorry Sir Henry.
    The Irish name Henery was originally written in a Gaelic form as O hInneirghe, which is derived from an adjective meaning easily roused early.

    But it was not what my brain was telling my fingers to type. I have punished the offending digit:D

    Ouch. That hurts just from looking at it... So Henery is a surname but not a first name. I named my character Henry Fletcher because of my Grandfather and the movie A Knights Tale.
    My Grandfathers first names were Heinrich Karl and the anglicized version of Heinrich is Henry and the wannabe knight in Knights Tale had his fathers profession as surname, "Thatcher" so I thought of Henry Fletcher...

    Umbra Regnum opens the (I think) first movie theater in SotA.
    Located on the first floor of "The Happy Hake", the programmed film is "The Pillars of the Earth", set in the present day, shot in black and white and with the latest sound technology.
    We haven't invented a popcorn machine yet, so don't forget to bring your own snack!

    How does that work? Are there set times for openings? Or can one simply hop by and see it even if no one else is there?

    The city debuts two new teleporters at the main entrance, to Central Brittany and Castle Atos (the effect is impressive, thanks to the developers for designing them).
    And whoever takes a walk along the seashore to the north, will see a small park next to "The happy Hake Inn", a pleasant corner of the city where you can sit and enjoy the sea breeze or practice archery in the shade of the trees.
    Enjoy your walk if you decide to visit Umbra Regnum :)
