Logen's 2-room bachelor pad at the Blood Haze Inn, West Freeport (not open to visitors) by Sapphirius

Logen is a huge old Halasian living out his retirement in Freeport. He's also something of a womanizer with a flair for romance and a silver tongue, very well spoken and educated for a barbarian. He also has a fondness for the finer things in life, but he is a barbarian, so they're a bit rough around the edges. I wanted to give his home a masculine look witha few soft touches here and there.

Entering his home reveals the kitchen, dining and living areas plus his workshop complete with a small shelf for placing his books as he finds them. Behind his kitchen is a fully stocked bar for those romantic occasions whenhe's found a lady friend to woo. I kept the walls dark and warm-toned with wood. After all, a woodworker would want to surround himself with what he loves to do. The fir furniture also gave that strong solid feel with accents of red placed through the house.

The second room reveals his bedroom, bathroom (with a decidedly more rugged toilet), and yes, you see that right. He's got an altar to Marr. Apparently, even after you betray, you can still sacrifice to the god you followed in Qeynos as well as buy and use that god's miracles and summon the god pet. The bed in particular was tricky for me to decide just how I wanted to do it. Logen's a big rugged man. While the canopied rosewood bed would have been big and rugged enough, it just didn't fit with the romantic theme I wanted to carry into the house. After all, a lady's man would find it difficult to explain why he's got skulls all over his bed.
