While you probably can't find an IKEA in Golarion


Advice


You should be able to buy furniture somehow.

So I want to make a character who has a wagon as a home that I plan on bringing along. We're playing Kingmaker and I plan to use it to expand the room we have at our disposal (with more players on the way the shed won't be enough) and maybe as a forward base for exploration.
So far I've encountered two problems in making this home.
1. While there are a lot of things to put on the shelves and cupboards of a home I cannot find any prices for furniture. I can buy a bedroll but not a bed. While I will want small furniture to fit into my cozy wagon I don't think I'm the only one to want to make a home for my character and a home is not much without anything in it (rooms full of loot do not a home make less ye be a dragon). Where should I look for furniture costs?
The second problem is I can't find a base wagon to use. There are a lot of wagons to use and I was really happy with the basic "Heavy wagon" until I noticed the lack of any real walls or roof. This might be solved by a price multiplier but someone might know of some other resource with something similar I can look for.

Do anyone know of any resources for furniture and/or wagons. Anyone had a similar situation and how did you deal with it?
While I could just ask my GM to make up some numbers I would prefer to have a working proposal to present so the wagon doesn't eat up to much extra time during the creation process and can simply be approved at the end since some of the other players are new to the system and will need help.


You can find some basic types of covered/travelling wagons in the free Jade Regent Players Guide as part of the caravan rules. Those seem to assume that the furniture comes built into the wagon though.

The 3.0 Stronghold Builder's guide assumed that furniture was included n the price of rooms too, so I can't help much there.


There's the old Stronghold builders guide from 3.5 - it's more about stronghold building (oh wonder), but maybe helpful.


Thank you.
Those will be a good start. Will have a look at them.

Edit: The Jade regent wagons seem pretty fine and very reasonable. Especially since they include horses. Fortune tellers wagon seem like a nice base for what I want. 200 for the horse and 100 for the base of the wagon. Say another 100 for walls and a roof and finally 100 for random furniture. While the Fortune tellers wagon probably includes all household objects the fortune teller might need I think I can either get my GM to let me pick a little stuff to be included or just add the cost of that on top.

That AP also surprised me while scrolling to look for the caravan rules. From what little I've seen so far it seems like a fun adventure. The name really didn't appeal to me as it sounds to me like some sort of asian themed adventure revolving around either the lack of a regent or an evil such.


We are playing Jade Regent actually and are now in the end of Book 2, with the caravans rules.

To answer your last post, yes it's a very fun AP, and as the DM, I already read book 3, and it looks awesome.

The critics seems to be really split, some really loves the caravan rules and some hate them. I guess it's all in the way you really apply it. But if your goal is to build a caravan, I think that Jade Regent AP is indeed a perfect start. I would also suggest you to look forward this excel sheet that might really help you despite a few minor bugs left.

For my part I enjoy these rules and I think my players also do. Just thought that the merchant part with selling / buying is a bit to general, but it's to keep it simple I guess!


You can have all the Ikea furniture you want - but there are no allen wrenches in Galoria to assemble it with.

Muahahahahaha!

I admit that when I first read this I thought it was stupid, but then I realized that maybe you have a group that plays at a level where having furniture could actually make a difference. More non-fighting scenes, more NPC interaction. Now I'm a little jealous.

You get things like that from a woodcrafter who made to order. As most furniture would be made from wood.
