Provence Coeur: The Mill


Property Rentals


TTRThe Mill Rental 230227.png

I'm delighted to announce this brand-new rental!  It's a little bit quirky and a whole lot of fun.  Perfect for someone that wants to make it their home base for roleplay.

-------------------

This charming cottage is part of The Queen's Hamlet, a fantasy village built for Marie Antoinette to escape the rigours of court life.  
 
The house was designed with a rustic exterior including a faux water-wheel that helps circulate water through a small canal and into the pond of the Petit Trianon. 

This rental property has a large backyard with an ocean view.

-------------------

This house can be rented for L$750 per week which includes a prim allowance of 200.

Arrangements for the purchase of additional prims may be made by contacting TatianaDokuchic Varriale.

[AoR] Household Management Challenge


News & Events


The Chatelaine.png

Do you have what it takes to keep your household happy?  Find out by joining the [AoR] Household Challenge (HHC)!

Based on real-life family budgets*, the HHC keeps you busy producing, trading, and purchasing the weekly provisions necessary to keep your household thriving.

Tatiana will help you set up your personalized HH Manager crafter.  She will need a full permission picture to display.  Your profile picture will work nicely.

Scoreboard:

For convenience the HH Management scoreboard is located in the QH [AoR] Market.

Levels of difficulty:

  • Individual: A household of one person
  • Family: A household of five people
  • Estate: A household of ten people, including staff.

Choose your starting level.  If ever you find the challenge too easy or too difficult you can always switch levels taking your earned points with you.

 

Progress bar:

Keeps track of your accomplishments and runs from 0 to 100.  One hundred points is considered a full year of management.  After the first year is completed the progress bar is reset for the second year.  Your total points continued to be displayed on the HH Management crafter (they are also stored in the AoR Database so they will never be lost).

 

Once a week:

Use your personalize HH Manger crafter to provide the HH basic provisions and the HH extra provisions.  You will receive one point for each successful transaction.

Individual level Basic example (in units, so 40 slices of bread which equals 5 loaves of bread)

Bread:40:Butter:16:Cheese:16:Egg:6:Milk:8:Sugar:16

Individual level Extra example (in units, so 5 glasses of Apple Cider or one bottle)

Apple_cider:5:Potato:8:Chicken_raw:8:Tea_leaves_dried:1:Beeswax_candle:7:Castile_soap:8

 

The provisions may change slightly over the course of the year depending on the season.

Provisions may be procured in varies way:; hand-crafted by the player themselves; purchased or bartered from another player; purchased from Myriam.  To encourage our roleplay please use Myriam as a last resort.  If an item is out-of-stock you can contact Tatiana to replenish the supply.

 

Once a month:

Use your personalize HH Manger crafter to provide the HH special provisions.  You will receive one point for a successful transaction plus an award ribbon that can be displayed on your HH Manager crafter.

For the month of March 2023 the challenge consists of:

  • 1 (6 units) Egg Board
  • 1 (8 units) Potato Soup
  • 1 (8 units) Apple Pie
  • 1 (8 units) Orange Tea
  • 1 (5 units) Hard Cider - any brand will do.

 

Start at any time:

It’s never too early or too late to start playing.

 

Go At Your Own Pace:

The only expectations are those you set for yourself.  If once a week is just way too much work, you can participate as often as feels like fun for you.  The monthly challenge is, of course, optional.  Some players may wish to skip it while others will ignore weekly and just play monthly.  It’s all good!

[AoR] Interest in Coffee Professionals?


News & Events


DrawingofaLondonBM290256001.jpg

We will soon be adding coffee to the AoR menu.

At the most basic level this involves Myriam selling roasted coffee beans which are put through a grinder.  The resulting coffee grounds are then brewed to make a pot of coffee.

If anyone is interested in becoming a Coffee Professional, the coffee production chain would be changed so that Myriam would sell green coffee beans that the professional would roast before grinding and brewing.  This Coffee Professional would be responsible for selling their roasted coffee beans, coffee grounds, and brewed coffee. 

In either case, regular coffee lovers would still be able to grind and brew their coffee at home.

This could make for an interesting profession which might include the running of a Coffeehouse  and, in time, the variety of coffee could be expanded.

You can indicate your interest in this discussion or contact me directly.  In the meantime, I'll be working on the basic scenario.

Cheers!

Tat

[AoR] Pizza


AoR Resources


Pizza is now on the menu!

Is it appropriate for the 18th century?  You bet!  See history of pizza for an overview.

We're starting out with some classics, Pizza Marinara & Pizza Margherita.

As it turns out, even simple pizza has a whole lot of ingredients that had to be added to AoR:

  • Pizza_dough (Dough maker)
  • Tomato_sauce (Cast iron pot)

  • Basil (Herb pot)
  • Garlic
  • Olive_oil
  • Oregano (Herb pot)
  • Oregano_dried (Herb dryer)

All ingredients are also available from Myriam until such time as our merchants can provide them.

Due to system limitations of six ingredients per recipe you will see that Margherita has been based on Marinara with some additions.  This allows for more complex recipes by going through the oven twice.

Tasty samples are available in the Market.

See  Recipes  for all the details

ETA:

Pizza Capricciosa (tomato, mushroom, olive) with new ingredients:

  • Mushroom
  • Olives_cured

[AoR] Trades: Who does What


AoR Resources

Besides providing an overall view of our extended community, I hope this will help us to identify areas that could use more attention.  Sere and I tend to do many different tasks, filling in spots as the situation demands.  I've left most of that work out rather than cluttering things up.

This list is always going to be very fluid as interests tend to change.  Please do not hesitate to contact me with your current information so that I can make regular updates.

Cheers!

[AoR] There's a new NPC in Town


News & Events


AoR Helene.png

In order to tidy up the Queen's Hamlet Market area and make more space for merchants to sell their wares, Myriam has trained a merchant assistant, Helene.  Rather than buying Harvesters (e.g., plants), Crafters (e.g., tools for cooking and wells), and Tools (e.g., personal vendors, labelling tools, and HUDs + Meters) from separate AoR vendors, stroll over to the spot where you used to buy these things and talk to Helene.  Her prices are the same as those you are used to paying for the items she sells. You'll notice that a few of the newer AoR items are still for sale individually at her booth.

Please note that there is a 30 second delay from the time Helene sends the item to the time she is ready for a new request.  Imagine her running to the stock room and running back (actually it's a LL imposed throttle to prevent spamming).

Here is Helene's current price list for the things she sells:

HARVESTERS:
Carrot patch c: 50 coins/unit
Compost bin c: 50 coins/unit
Hen 01 c: 50 coins/unit
Hen 03  c: 50 coins/unit
Herb pot c: 50 coins/unit
Lavender plant c: 50 coins/unit
Onion patch c: 50 coins/unit
Potato patch c: 50 coins/unit
Strawberry patch c: 50 coins/unit
Sugar beet patch c: 50 coins/unit
Tomato patch c: 50 coins/unit

CRAFTERS:
Butter churn c: 50 coins/unit
Cast iron pot c: 50 coins/unit
Cast iron roaster c: 50 coins/unit
Cast iron skillet c: 50 coins/unit
Dough maker c: 50 coins/unit
Kettle c: 50 coins/unit
Oven c: 50 coins/unit
Pastry maker c: 50 coins/unit
Stove c: 50 coins/unit
Well c: 50 coins/unit

TOOLS:
