The Xhorhaus



The Xhorhaus was a castle-like mansion and the home of the Mighty Nein. It is located in Xhorhas, in the Kryn capital city of Rosohna.

In recognition of their service to the Bright Queen and their newfound status as "Heroes of the Dynasty", the Mighty Nein were awarded this mansion by Shadowhand Essek Thelyss.

Keep Description
The Xhorhaus is a two-story mansion paneled in vermaloc wood, painted a dark maroon color with a lighter stone foundation. The roofing is dark, near-black clay tiling with a single balcony on the second floor. It has a short tower built into the back right corner that raises to a third story, with a large oak tree growing from the top. Two stained-glass windows installed towards the front are similar to those in the Lucid Bastion.

Basement
The Basement was listed to contain Rat droppings, chewed wood and a red wine stain.

Tower Top
Caduceus Clay resides at the top of the Xhorhaus tower, which he has converted into a garden with Jester's help. The garden is lit with strings of magical lights, and its most iconic plant is a 60 ft. tall, 5 ft. diameter oak tree (grown with Caduceus's feather token). The tree has made quite an impact on the Mighty Nein's neighbors: not only being the only green-leafed tree in Rosohna, but also dramatically increasing the Xhorhaus' overall height.

Caduceus has a bed off to the side inside a garden shack-like structure.

Trivia

 * The appearance and floor-plan for the Xhorhaus were based on the Frozen Mansion: a fantasy mansion designed and drawn by Jared Blando on DeviantArt (@TheRedEpic on Twitter). The original Frozen Mansion was a haunted mansion somewhere in the mountains.  It belonged to a rich wizard-lord who dabbled in too much sorcery...unleashing something that froze their home, and escaped after taking its revenge.  It is unknown who the previous owner(s) of the Xhorhaus were, and if they had suffered this same fate prior to the Mighty Nein being gifted the mansion by Essek.
 * Caleb (and Liam) wanted to name the house the "M.T. Home", in honor of the deceased Mollymauk Tealeaf. He was out-voted by the rest of the party, and the name "Xhorhaus" stuck.
 * Caduceus' tower-top tree adorned with hanging lights bears a striking resemblance to The Birthheart, one of the most prominent temples to Caduceus' patron goddess Melora. Whether or not this is intentional is unknown.
