All new characters are assigned a room in the dorm complex located in the center of the city. There are scanners at the main door and individual rooms; these function in lieu of a key or a keycard. The main door opens to a lobby, with a concierge-style desk that is staffed by an NPC at all hours. This NPC will give new characters their room assignments and welcome packages when they first arrive, and may answer limited questions about such things as directions to locations within the city, how to apply for jobs, and what ongoing or seasonal activities are happening in the city. The NPC will not respond to any questions of the “why am I here/who brought me here/how do I blow them up” variety.

In the dorm complex, there are six floors with space for 20 occupants on each floor, in either single or double rooms. The first two floors have communal, gender neutral bathrooms; the next two floors have a single bathroom shared between two suites; the top two floors have a single private bathroom per room. A communal kitchen is located on one end of each floor of the dorm building, and on the opposite end of the floor is a lounge with couches, a large television, a table with four chairs, and shelves full of books, games, and movies. The kitchen is regularly stocked with basic foodstuffs - dried pasta, beans, rice, canned vegetables and fruit - which are freely and equally available to all dorm residents, but anything fancier will not be provided. To get around between floors, there are two staircases, one on either end of the floor, and in the center of the floor, two elevators. Communal bathrooms, kitchens, and lounges are cleaned daily, but please tidy up after yourselves. Pay-by-app laundry facilities are located in the basement floor of the dorm complex.

The dorm apartments are pretty sparse - think freshman dorms at an average state university. This is not at all high luxury living! Each room measures about 12 feet by 16 feet, and holds only the basic furniture - two beds (may be bunked to allow for more living space), two desks with chairs, two (tiny) closets, two (also tiny) dressers, and one fairly large window. All of the furniture is basic boring wood - sturdy, but not the most interesting to look at. Characters are also provided one desktop computer in every dorm apartment, with hookups into the city-wide intranet and internet systems, as well as basic word processing and image editing programs (think MSPaint, not Photoshop). The walls are painted a slightly dingy off-white; the floors are grey-speckled off-white linoleum tile.

For visual reference, please see the floor plan on the left (double, not super double):



Each room holds a maximum of TWO occupants, and YES, the dorms ARE co-ed. Roommates are assigned at random ICly (OOCly it’s by player request - see below), and since the “key” to your door is your thumbprint, there is no way to enter rooms via the door without having the room’s proper inhabitants let you in (or, you know … cutting off their thumb, if you really need to break in). There IS a way to request a room transfer, but good luck finding the forms, and don’t hold your breath waiting for a response. (OOCly, all you have to do is comment here about changing rooms. ICly, it should be a little bit of a hassle.)
