In this interface tab, you can recharge your House Energy and increase or decrease your House Space. To enter this tab, you have to click on the energy sign in the upper corner of the House Interface.

To quickly see your amount of house energy, you can check the House Energy symbol.

On the left side you can purchase more house energy for various functions inside your house. Simply choose the amount that suits your needs and then confirm it by clicking the Ok button.

On the right side you can increase your house space here, by either typing into the infobox, or using the arrow keys. You have two fees to pay, a one time upfront fee and a daily fee. Both scale based on the number of furniture slots currently active. Should you wish to reduce the amount of slots in your house, you can also decrease it here.

Appearance

In the Appearance Tab, you can customise your Sky, Music and Ground inside your External House Styles

Sky

You can decide between 27 different Skies, which all cost different prices. After buying them, you can activate them in the same tab. There are skies to suit every style.

Music

There are 65 different music titles you can choose from. It will be infinitely be played inside your house.

Ground

There are 23 different ground styles you can choose from. In the preview, you can see which one you like most. There are grassy grounds and some with stones, desert grounds, different patterned grounds, marble grounds and even wood grounds.

Furniture

After buying furniture, you have to add it in the Furniture Tab by dragging it onto the grey field. After that you can place it by clicking on the Place button - you are free to place the item wherever you want. For smaller styles however your space is limited to the region of ground. After that you can click on the button under the Preview to resize the item or move it.

Next to the Place button, you also find the Rename button, Pickup to bag and a notification if the item is already placed or not.

Housemaids

In the servants tab, you can hire housemaids for your house. You can hire up to 6 housemaids which will get more expensive with each you hire. In the Housing Interface, you can choose the housemaid you would like to hire, rename, place or fire.

Each housemaid has different abilities such as affinity, charisma, fatigue, magic skills, battle skills, defense skills, cooking skills and inventive skills.

Each skill stands for something else the housemaid can give you. Magic Skills, Battle Skills and Defense Skills will give you a buff, Cooking Skills will give you buff food and Inventive Skills will give you potions. Regarding what you want the housemaid to give you, you should hire one with the highest maximum points in that category.

Affinity will level by chatting to the housemaid and will allow you to use the other abilities when it reaches 10, each chat action will use 15 fatigue. Other actions will increase the fatigue to increase by 25. Once it reaches 100, your housemaid will have to recover for some time. By clicking "Thanks for your help!", you can reset the fatigue of your housemaid for Gold.

The higher the charisma of the housemaid is, the longer is the duration of the buffs you receive and the amount of potions and food the housemaid will give you.

Clicking the second tab in the housemaid interface will show you the housemaid equip spaces. By placing equip parts, you can change the look of the house maid.
