LOCATIONS
As honored guests to Master Blue's home, you are invited to explore the grounds to your heart's content.
GARDEN
As you step outside from the doors in the ballroom, you'll find yourself walking along a path shrouded by dead, leafless trees. This path would likely be a beautiful and leisurely stroll during spring and summer months, but it isn't until you step off of the short path that you'll find yourself in the backyard of Master Blue's mansion. Try not to stray too far though. If you venture too far into the trees, you will find yourself back at the doors of the mansion itself.
Duck Pond - The duck pond is well taken care of with a variety of lily pads, cattails and other water plants surrounding the edges. Inside this pond...are ducks! Cute, happy little ducks who have taken up occupancy in this pond and seem quite used to the residents of this mansion. If you're gentle, you may even get a chance to pet one.
Stables - Behind the mansion an old wooden barn looms in the distance. The sound of whinnying horses can be heard as you approach and just inside the barn doors one will find a dozen horses of all colors and ages. Saddles, bridles, helmets and crops can be found inside the barn along with fresh water, hay, and special treats for horses. Most of the horses are tamed to ride, and should guests look outside they'll find a well-worn path leading around the property to enjoy.
Garden - Despite the dreary winter weather, the garden is full of life and crafted to near perfection. Flowers and plants are in full bloom, many of which you may recognize from the conservatory and every now and then you may come across a stone bench or a small bird bath. Take some time to stop and smell the roses. This tranquil space is perfect for those looking to get away from it all.
Garden Shed - Located in walking distance from the garden itself, the shed is stocked with a variety of shovels, shears, watering cans, gloves, bags of soil and even a lawnmower? Well okay. There are also packets of flower and vegetable seeds for those who wish to do a little gardening of their own. Guests may also find duck food in this shed to try and make some fine feathered friends.
Playground - The playground can be seen from the garden and its bright cheerful colors almost seem to match the flowers in bloom. This playground is home to a swing set, a jungle gym, a roundabout, a metal slide and a small wooden fort to climb and hide in. Just be careful of the wooden chips covering the ground around the equipment lest you get splinter or two.
Graveyard - The largest part of the back yard just beyond the smaller sections is the mansion's graveyard. Well manicured just like the rest of the garden, this section is host to a wide range of headstones, tombs, flower arrangements and plaques buried in the ground. If you're brave enough to look around and pay your respect to the dead, you may notice that the names have become ineligible over time and the epitaphs aren't quite as sweet as you'd imagine.
"...laid to rest, no mourning please at his request."
"A train made a stain of absent-minded...."
"...le, here you'll lie for quite a while."
BASEMENT
Laundry Room - Located right next to the stairs, the laundry room holds six washers and six dryers for the use of the guests in the house. Some machines are a tad older than others and may require a bit of elbow grease to jumpstart them, but they'll get the job done! Guests may also find all of the items necessary to clean their clothes including detergent, fabric softener, bleach, buckets, washboards and dryer sheets.
Underground Lake - The lake, for all intents and purposes, takes up a majority of the center of the basement. While there are narrow paths to walk around it, the quickest way to get get across is via the rowboat parked on the shore of the lake. Guests may also swim across if they're feeling daring, but there's no telling what may be at the bottom.
Wine Cellar - Hundreds and hundreds of bottles of wine line the shelves of this room, organized by year and type. There are also a few wooden barrels to the left of the room along with a metal fruit press used for winemaking. And best of all? There's a staircase that leads right up into the kitchen for ease of transportation.
Crypt - Much like the rest of the house, the inside of this crypt is rather refined with marble pillars and wooden flooring but it's a tad mustier than the other floors. This room is surprisingly empty except for four coffins lined up in a row and the lovely stack of skulls against the wall. Off you go, nothing to see here!
Gun Room - Firearms of all shapes and sizes can be found in this room, but several of them appear to be empty. You may be lucky to find a gun with a few bullets left, but it will require a bit of searching. There is also a workbench at the back of the room with clamps, tools, and welding equipment for weapons maintenance and crafting.
FLOOR ONE
Lounge - Chairs, couches and chaises fill a majority of this room and the sounds of soft jazz music play from speakers you can never quite find no matter how hard you look. Flanking the entire back wall are three fully-stocked cabinets: one contains liquor, one contains a variety of juices and sodas for mixed drinks, and one contains supplies such as glasses, stirrers, and even olives for those of you who want to feel a little fancy. Unwind after a hard day and pour yourself a tall glass. You deserve it.
Dining Room - Located just next to the kitchen, the decor of the dining room is sure to catch your eye with its crystal chandeliers and the oil paintings of fruits that are mounted on the walls. This room holds ten tables that may seat up to six guests each, decorated with a glass centerpiece and place settings for every seat. Food is served every day at 7am, 12pm, and 5pm, and the best part is you'll never have to worry about the clean-up.
Kitchen - Connected directly to the dining room, the kitchen always smells delicious even if food isn't being prepared. This room features all of your standard appliances, dishes, two full stove and oven combinations, a stainless steel refrigerator, a deep freezer and a pantry. No matter what time of day you look, fresh ingredients are right at your fingertips to prepare a meal when the mood strikes.
Ballroom - Located at the furthest end of the hall, the ballroom is a large, spacious room with beautiful wooden flooring, crystal chandeliers, towering marble columns and French doors lining the far wall. Behind the curtains is a view of the mysterious night sky, yet these cannot be opened during the day just yet. Hm...perhaps there's a trick to this? More importantly, a long table with thirty-six seats remains off to one side of the room, silver candleholders anchored at each end and several notecards and crayons gathered in a basket in the center.
Hall - A wide area housing all doors on the first floor, the hall is made up of wooden flooring and brass light fixtures mounted on the walls between each room.
Conservatory - Built off to the east side of the ballroom, the conservatory opens up to a glass domed room with floor to ceiling windows. Fresh flowers are displayed in crystal vases on the tables inside, and the wicker furniture gives the room a homey sort of feeling. Normally, this room would provide a lovely view of the backyard but it seems that thick shutters have blocked off the windows. The exit also appears to be jammed. How odd.
Billiard Room - A game room with several billiard tables gathered in a row, along with cases of additional supplies such as spare cue sticks, billiard balls, chalk and racks. This room also houses a pair of plush leather couches and a small liquor cabinet for those who wish to relax as they wait their turn to play.
Library - A single-story room, the library is filled with hundreds upon hundreds of books all divided by category and alphabetized for easy access. Several study tables and a few leather arm chairs take up a portion of the room, and a fireplace continues to burn all hours of the day to keep the room nice and cozy for those who are avid readers. The books are an eclectic blend of fiction and non-fiction, and if one looks hard enough they may even find books from their own homeworld.
Study - Directly connected to the library, the study is a small room meant for those who are looking for a quiet place to think and research. This is a room where guests may find papers, fountain pens, and a scattered assortment of office supplies (some more modern than others.) An executive desk sits in front of the lone window in the room, and though all of its drawers are locked, it's an impressive display for several fancy paperweights.
Bathroom - A private bathroom located just off of the entrance. This room contains a single toilet and sink and not much else.
FLOOR TWO
Guest Rooms - As guests ascend to the second floor, they will come to realize there are fifteen doors spread across the hall. Five on each side, and three on each end. Should they take a closer look, they will realize each door contains two plaques indicating where guests will stay during their visit. More information may be found on the rooming page.
FLOOR THREE
Chapel - A beautiful place of prayer with a patterned marble floor and stained glass windows, the chapel gives out an air of peace to all who enters it. Containing fifteen rows of wooden pews, a pulpit, an altar and a confessional booth, it seems like a perfectly peaceful room. It is decorated with crosses and some search may lead you to some bottles of prepared holy water. You can also find stairs leading up to a bell tower ... as well as, hidden behind the pulpit, a secret passage that leads directly to the crypt. Hm.
Furnace Room - Exactly what it says on the tin, the furnace room is a sterilized room with multiple cremation furnaces lined up in a row on the furthest wall. A horrible place to take a nap.
Music Room - Filled to the brim with what seems to be all possible instruments, the music room also holds a few record players and vinyls that play music that may seem personally familiar to the guests. Various books of sheet music are also available. The pipe organ in the back has a note on it asking guests to please avoid damaging it, signed with a small, purple paw print.
Game Room - Board games. Cards. Video games. Sport equipment gathering dust in a corner? You think of it, you can find it in this miraculous room. There are multiple consoles and televisions available to play them, as well as an entire arcade section with driving games, dancing games and shooting games. A side of the room contains both air hockey and Foosball tables. For some reason, though the board game section is massive, there is not a single copy of Cl*e available here.
Gymnasium - ARE YOU TIRED OF BEING A TWINK? DO YOU WANT TO GET BUFF? THEN GO DO SOME WEIGHT TRAINING. OH MAN THEY'VE GOT SOME GREAT WORK OUT MACHINES THERE. TREADMILLS AND STATIONARY BIKES? SO MANY. AND HOLY SHIT? THEY'VE GOT YOGA BALLS. TIME TO GET SWOLE, SON.
Morgue - Actually, this explains the furnace room given there's a door leading directly to this room. Freezing in temperature, this pristine room contains two mortuary tables that stand in the center of the room. On the wall to the left of the tables there is a washing station with a counter containing several autopsy tools, a hanging scale, and two overhead cabinets filled with items including syringes, bottles of formaldehyde, soap and clean towels. The cabinets above the counter on the right side of the room contain cleaning supplies for the room, identification tags and clean white body bags! Thankfully, the fifteen steel fridges at the back of the room are all empty at this time.
Infirmary - It turns out that reassuringly connected to the furnace room was a small, fully-stocked infirmary. A single bed and rolling chair occupy the floor space, while the walls are lined with a sink and multiple cabinets and drawers. You may find bandages, syringes, actual adult painkillers, scalpels, suture kits, Howdy Doggy band-aids and more in here.
FLOOR FOUR
Drawing Room - While this room might be filled with couches for maximum comfort, it seems the name did not stand for your common drawing room. Arts and crafts materials of all kinds fill this room to the brim, whether you wish to draw or paint, knit or sew, make balloon animals or your own cursed wooden puppet, the material for it is all available in this room cutely decorated with origami paper flowers. There are a few instruction booklets here as well for people simply attempting to pick up a hobby.
Astronomy Tower - A tower located in a corner of this floor, the stairs leading up to it seem to last forever. The view at the top shows the entire sky unobstructed. There are star charts for a sky none of the guests can recognize, an astronomical clock and multiple telescopes of differing sizes, as well as pillows and blankets for those who just wish to watch the view in peace. Just make sure you don't step too close to the ledge... the fall is surprisingly steep.
Movie Theater- You know how some houses have a home theater? This is not one of them. In this room, the multiple rows of seats are lined with beautiful red velvet, all of them facing a large projection screen. There is a popcorn machine in the corner that is always full and fresh. The projection room is easily accessible from the side... the only downside is, the only movies that seem to be available are horror movies. From the old classics to the most recent addition to the S*w franchise, the genre might not be entirely appreciated right now.
Beauty Salon - Need to dye your hair? Looking for some make-up to hide the stress lines building up because of this place? The beauty salon has it all for you! Doubling as a spa, this is the perfect place for relaxation with its massage bed, hot tub, and industrial hair dryers. Make sure not to mix up the bath bombs and bath salts with the hair spray and eyeshadow palettes, though. That would be awkward.
Museum - A place filled with trinkets and oddities instead of antiques. There are little plaques describing the many items on display in this place, though no word on their source. All items are behind impenetrable glass cases...save for one. A ouija board stands in the middle of it all. Master Blue has quite the collection.
Room of Req⬛⬛⬛ - A plaque next to the blood red door of this room announces its name now that it has been opened, although some of the writing seems to have been scratched off... Enter it alone, and you will find the room changes to what you seem to require most at the time. It seems to work on a first come, first serve basis, although additional guests may find that their wish can influence the details of the room. Alas, no items from this room may leave it, though your energy sure will after spending too long in there!
Infinity Closet- C l o t h e s. So many clothes. Clothes and accessories of all kinds of styles, colors, era... and places, apparently. Hey, is that specifically your outfit? How did that wind up here?! Anything you've previously worn before in your own world may make its grand debut here.
FLOOR FIVE
Research Laboratory - Despite "research" being in its name, the research laboratory does not seem to have any sort of reading material available in it... unless you make a habit of reading technical manuals in your free time. Sharing the wing with the operating laboratory, this room seems to be tailored to those who are more mechanically inclined. All sorts of gadgets are available to mess with, and a generous workshelf built into the walls ensures that you'll have all the room you need to tinker away at your latest creation.
Operating Laboratory - Have you ever dreamed of being Dr. Frankenstein and creating your own monster? You can certainly try to do that in the operating laboratory, but results will vary. Surgical tools line the shelves of this room, while anatomy skeletons in various poses stand in the corners. What probably draws eyes the most, however, is an operating table right in the middle of the room. While most of the bodies placed upon it tend to be of the stiff and lifeless variety, there are restraints attached to the table to hold down... less compliant subjects.
Bloody Room - Connected to the operating laboratory, the bloody room... is a room completely covered in blood. No matter how hard you try to scrub, the blood will not come off. (Plum has tried.) While there seems to be no rhyme or reason to most of the crimson splatters, there are several spots where the stains seem to resemble writing... but they don't seem to be in any discernable language. Hm.
Master Bedroom - Taking up a majority of the fourth floor, the master bedroom is certainly deserving of its title. A golden plaque on the door reads "MASTER BLUE ▒▒▒▒▒▒▒". While there is a blue calling bell hanging from the door, which is kept securely locked at all times, any attempt to ring it will go unanswered.
Servants' Quarters - Located behind the stairs leading to the attic, the servants' quarters are exactly what they sound like. A golden plaque on the wall reads "PLUM, PEACH, & PUMPKIN". Like Master Blue's room, there are three calling bells hanging from the locked door: one each in purple, pink, and orange. It seems like you can try to meet privately with the help here, but your request may not be answered right away... there are always things that need attending to in the house, after all. Don't be disappointed if you can't access this room while the girls are away.
Master Bathroom - A large bathroom that mostly consists of a bathtub the size of a small pool sunk into the dark sparkling marble tile. Golden bath taps surround it, with a single jewel of a different color encrusted on each one. In addition there's a toilet (more like a throne, really), and a line of large white marble sinks against the wall. There are also cabinets opposite of the sink, helpfully labeled with what extras they are meant to hold; such as soap, bath oil, bath powder, bath salts, bath robes, towels, shampoo, hair spray, and conditioner.
War Room - A room more like a bunker, this area consists of a table of telephones to the left, a telegraph machine, an executive desk in the center with a typewriter and phone, and a row of old-style computers on the righthand wall. While these phones do work, calls cannot be connected to anyone outside, and don't even think about using the internet. Directly across from the entrance is another metal door hiding a room filled with canned goods, a locker with some gas masks, and another desk. On the walls of the room are several maps and clocks displaying locations and times in places such as Tokyo, New York, Sydney, Hyrule, Corona...wait, what? Your home might even be there, too. ...but there's also a comfortable plush chair and another locker in the main room, housing an army uniform of some sort.
ATTIC
Attic - Only accessible via ladder in the war room, the attic is a storage space of wonder. Oddly cleaned and organized, you'll never know what you'll find there. While there are several boxes color-coded in pink, purple and orange, there are also several shelves of items, all labeled appropriately. Should one open the boxes, they'll find several treasures such as baby clothes, old books, collector edition boxes for various video games, aging art projects, ceramics, sheet music and more. Be sure to watch the furniture though. It may not be where you last remember...don't trip now.
