Basic Facilities

A character's Bastion starts with two free basic facilities, which the character's player chooses from the Basic Facilities list below. One of the chosen facilities is Cramped, and the other is Roomy. A Bastion can have more than one of each basic facility.

  • Bedroom

  • Dining Room

  • Parlor

  • Courtyard

  • Kitchen

  • Storage

A basic facility comes with nonmagical furnishings and decor appropriate for that facility.

Basic facilities don't have any game effects, but they can inspire roleplaying opportunities and enhance a Bastion's verisimilitude. A Bastion with a kitchen is functionally the same as one without, but the former gives you and your players a fun setting to start game sessions, have in-character discussions, or introduce new NPCs.

A character can add new basic facilities or enlarge existing ones by spending money and time. The cost of adding a basic facility and the time required depend on the facility's space, as shown on the table below.
