Nightfall's Retreat
Glacial Hideout  Hello. First time posting in any competition. Theme around this hideout is pretty simple. A place you can go to be alone. We all need some place to retreat to. So, why not do it in The Nightfall ? ______________________________________________________________________________ Below are some of the words/lyrics/poems that inspired me to build this hideout!
Spoiler
"And as the shadows grow taller
Swallow all the night. I'm left alone in darkness With no one by my side." "And as the shadows give way to light Grow and thrive. Every day must lose to night Fade and die" "Footprints on the snow covered by the frozen rain from the north. A trace leading into the dark, grand isolation. Cold is the air to inhale, cold is the heart impaired. Glacial blood runs in your veins, a pitch-black and frosty ichor." ______________________________________________________________________________ Below is the link to my Imgur Album with some screenshots. I'm new to this kinda thing so be gentle please. :)

If someone's somehow interested in seeing it in game, you can PM at any time. Glad to share. :) Last edited by VaniSect#6185 on Jan 28, 2019, 11:57:48 PM

Verdant Bathhouse
He did not know how long it had been, nor how many creatures had fallen at his hands. All he knew is that he couldn't go on much longer. As he pushed open the doors to the bathhouse poised to tackle whatever this cursed world had to throw at him next, the exile steeled himself for the continued endless slaughter. However, the exile was not met by another horde. The exile could not understand what was before him. Nature had taken hold of the room, creating a sanctuary free from the clutches of evil. The exile fell to his knees, blood covered his clothes and he was no longer sure if it was his or that of his enemies. Overwhelmed by a sense of peace and sanctity, the exile removed his armour and washed away the blood, sweat, and tears covering every inch of his body. The exile decided to settle here, and create a sanctum for himself and those he deemed worthy. Over the decades to come the exile gathered countless treasures from across Oriath and filled his new home with them. He continued to bathe in the waters of the bathhouse, which seemed to have strange healing properties. However, although the water washed away the physical damage, the toll the endless fight had taken on the exile pushed him to insanity. He began to let more exiles into his sanctum, keeping them hostage under the guise of providing protection. The exile considered himself a God and expected to be revered as such. Any exile who dared to oppose his views was maliciously tortured and executed, put on display as a message to all who enter. A once beautiful, verdant, space that represented absolute tranquillity is now a temple to one man's endless madness. Stay at your own peril. The Verdant Bathhouse. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nSbhlUKQqCw&feature=youtu.be The Theme The theme of the hideout is to essentially follow the story above. The hideout was once beautiful, and tranquil. However the insanity and obsessiveness of one man is slowly turning this sanctuary into his own lawless temple. You can see hints of his insanity by some of the artifacts and relics he has taken pleasure in collecting, as well as the mutilated corpses and exiles attempting to hide from the mad, self proclaimed, 'God' (highlighted in the video). Final Words I hope you like the hideout! This was an absolute blast to make and I will be designing many more in future (once I can get enough favour).

Hideout Name: The Dragon's Nest
Showcase video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dIqrSARrjVo&feature=youtu.be Theme/Idea: Built a hideout that goes well with the Dragon portal and pet. I don't actually have any of those so just pretend the fire frog is a dragon :P Made it for balor because he actually has those. There's lots of grassy shit coming in from upstairs, and firery shit coming up from downstairs and in the middle the dragons have made it nice and comfortable for them selves. Also there's a room for Einhar to do his Einhar business in...... like write mighty poems. Edit: here's the link because i'm special and forgot it https://drive.google.com/open?id=19LNNia4m6E3zpReAPvI1QEu5dPN5lkk9 Last edited by CoffeePowered#0792 on Jan 27, 2019, 2:09:15 AM

This is my hideout /made on a budget thanks to my solo play and laziness to farm old&new masters/.
I call it just "(my)piece of Oriath". https://imgur.com/a/LgfMOVw
Spoiler
Extra info:
-even if i had more favor points i would keep it like this- simple, with some symmetry and everything needed close enough /exception is WP to stash&map-device to avoid unlucky guests in my maps/; -i plan to make cosmetic changes about outdoor part of hideout and crafting bench maybe -once i get couple millions of points again and max master levels to see all decorations available or just replace some of the statues with bigger ones because i love those new statues; -IIRC only the little pirate treasure left from map device is a mtx, everything else is what you can get by reclaiming hideouts decorations and buying decorations from masters; Slow down for a minute to enjoy the beauty around us.

Luxurious Hideout | Mysterious Vaal Letter
 Everything started with worldwide whisper about a mysterious vaal letter and a captain owning it. All descritpions were very vague... But the murmur was powerful enough to catch the attention by the syndicate. Especially Tora and Catarina wanted to find the letter. If you want to learn more about the story, continue reading. Otherwise here's the imgur-album with even more images and a video link: Album: https://imgur.com/a/OdnT5vS Video: https://youtu.be/WY8EXzngvJ0
Spoiler
 After collecting more information about the captain, his ship and his route. They set up a camp near the coast and waited for their victims.  Tora struck in full force. Demolishing the ship's front. While trying to avoid even more damage the ship and its crew got stuck on the dangerous rocks near the coast.  Now Catarina's bone creature attacked the ship's back. Tearing apart most of the persons on board. Unfortunately for the syndicate all effort was wasted. They couldn't find the desired vaal letter... Years later, the new masters started an expedition to the ship wreck.
Spoiler
 Time passed and wore down the ship. The letter was uncovered... the captain put it under one loose wood plank in his cabin.  Zana tries to understand what happens years before. Maybe she can find another weakness of the immortals...  Navali acts as overseer. Seeing the future might help.  There aren't many supplies left. Flies everywhere. Urgh!  Niko tries to understand how the corals were able to found that quickly. They are already taking over part of the ship.  On the other side of the ship Alva and Einhar discover the secrets of catarina's bone beast. It left green slime all over the place.  The crew's cabin wasn't especially comfortable, but it seems like they were able to read.  Each commander had at least their own place to rest. Having their weapons nearby, they were always ready to fight...  Helena covers the way back. She dropped some reliquaries here and there, trying to hoard too much... Including testing and a lot of trying out different decorations and combinations this hideout costed me about 20 million favor. All decorations are available for favour.

NAVALI'S HIDDEN TREASURE
History 1. Navali's Insanity Navali was once known as a wise and powerful witch specialized in dark pacts, necromancy and chaos inoculation. Hinekora, mother of death, granted her the power of vision so she could see between the world of the living and the world of the dead. Navali's power was growing stronger each passing day, but her visions also made her somehow insane. Navali's only fear was her own death, the only vision she would never have. That fear consumed her until she decided to defy Hinekora and become immortal. Navali would prevent the death of every soul she could by telling them how to avoid their fate, until Hinekora granted her with immortality. 2. Navali's Immortality "I'm mortal. That's my only flaw. But I'm meant to be perfect. I'm meant to be immortal!" - Navali "You dare betray me, witch? You will learn your place for eternity!" - Hinekora Hinekora in response to Navali's betrayal cursed her. First, Hinekora took Navali's sight so she remembers her mortality. Then, the goddess made her neither dead or alive, she was now only a revenant between worlds. Lastly, she caged her in The Climb until someone would set her free, and by that time, Navali would have to tell that someone its prophecies until its last day. When her savior would finaly pass away, she would be caged again, and again, and again... The silver coin she colects is a token that Hinekora demands so Navali remembers how worthless her power is compared to Hinekora's. 3. Navali's Hideout The Immaculate Temple was the place chosen by Navali to escape from Hinekora and to represent the "perfection" she once craved. A flawless place for a flawless witch, she said. Everything there, every urn, every vessel, every torch, every tile, every exile is symmetrical or at least perfectly aligned by Navali. The Immaculate Temple is also the one place the mother of death cannot touch. After learning that, Navali built a hideout there so she could escape from Hinekora and avenge her curse later. Navali turned all the silver coins into gold, to trick the greedy exiles to fight for her. She has now mountains of golden coins. Navali was able to find a way to defy Hinekora once again, joining forces with the city masters. 4. Navali's Betrayal Navali has an evil plan, she is plotting against the city masters as well. When they die by the hands of Hinekora, the Immortal Syndicate will grant Navali with immortality and a leader position in exchange for her help. That way, she will be able to really defy Hinekora. Now you know how the Immortal Syndicate knows exactly where and when you are! NAVALI'S HIDDEN TREASURE VIDEO: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AMxDyH3qfxQ NAVALI'S HIDDEN TREASURE IMAGES:       |
