The Eternal House at New Avalon
Overview, philosophy, and purpose
This Eternal House serves four purposes:
- Good Deeds - Anyone in need is welcome to share food, lodging, healing, and help. There are often folks here who are just down on their luck. There is a small free school for children of staff and worshippers. An infirmary and healer treats the sick and injured. This policy of generosity may sometimes mean that even those who do not really need help may take advantage. Within reason, that's the price paid to help the rest.
- Eternal Digs in New Avalon - The Eternal House is a good place to stay for any Eternals needing a home in town. It is also a good place to leave messages, to gather, and to hang out. Each Eternal has one large unfurnished upstairs room available. Interested Eternals can establish a residence as desired.
- An Ear to the Ground - The House is home to Whorfin's New Avalon agent. It serves as a place of business and contacts. It is a source of information and rumors.
- Sunday Services - Although there is no missionary work done in the House, it does serve as a place of worship for those seeking services, contemplation, learning, and prayer.
Here's one more possibility:
- Marvin's Idea - I propose make a special Eternals room (with special locks, wards, a easily and unique memorizable pattern for teleportation/traveling/scrying/etc.). Possibly a unique symbol for each person (My symbol in the New Orc City Eternal House special chamber, Whorfin's in New Avalon, Tim's in Shoal, Nomad's in his Pocket Universe, Abrac's in the Top).
