The Bogard mansion layout

[empress dee]

This should help when it comes to the role-plays that I do regarding knowing what is where in the Bogard mansion.

Main level

When you first walk in, to your immediate left, you will see a closet for your jacket and footwear. After all, nobody likes having to wash floors all the time. And the place is warm enough to walk around in it naked, not that anybody would actually do that.

Once you are passed the entrance, you are going to notice two hallways. One to your left and one to your right. In front of you, you are going to notice a bathroom, Joe's apartment suite, the stairs to the second floor, and a land line. This land line is to be used for transit rides for those who do not want to sleep in the hotel after drinking.

Going right, the first room you wander into is the gym. The gym has your standard equipment. The treadmill, the exercise bike, the chest press, the leg press, a sandbag for punching or kicking, a weight lifter, and a rowing machine. If you wander down the center of these machines down an isle, you will see another room.

This room is the arcades. The arcades have all consoles available and all titles known to date. We have pokemon constantly charging up the consoles so no worries for power shortages and there is food for pokemon that gets dispensed for them so they can keep working and be happy.

There is a wall beyond this point, but you can see the pool from here, you just don't have access from this point. After all, water and electricity is bad news bears.

So, if you went left from the entrance, the first room you see is the hangover room. Often you will see Terry there snoozing and if you do see him there, do NOT wake him.

Beyond the hangover room is the kitchen for the Bogard family and immediate friends of the family can eat here. Sometimes business meetings happen in this room.

Then you see the deck and access to the pool outside. Keep in mind that during winter, the pool is closed. It is covered with tarp so nobody can enter it during this time.

And this concludes the main floor. Stay tuned for next post where I give the tour of the second floor.

Floor 2

Going left from the staircase, you will see a large hallway. This is a pedway to the romantic piano, another lounge hotel, but owned by William-Tyler Bogard. There is also the bedrooms to Linken Bogard, Corrigan Bogard, and Rails Bogard on the right if you turned to go towards William's hotel and then on the left in that direction, there are the bedrooms of Parma-Blue and Jasmine.

If you went right of the staircase, then to your left you will see Rock's bedroom, Andy and Mai's bedroom, and mine and Terry's bedroom at the end of the hall. On the right is the bathroom with a shower for Rock and Mai to use as well as access to the lounge and hotel part of the mansion.

This concludes the tour of the second floor. Stay tuned for the tour of the third floor.

Empress Dee's lounge - floor 3

After climbing the few wooden steps and entering through the glass door, you will see on your right, the public bathrooms and a hallway leading to the fighting arena, the beyblade arena, and the pokemon battle arena.

If you look slightly left, you will see the bar along with a few tables.

At the center of the room is a giant Christmas tree with a seatless automobile as a tree stand. This car is supposed to be the car mom shows me on the first day of Christmas. The tree is decorated with the song items that I made up. Toy versions of course of what aren't supposed to be toys. Such as the 2 maytag washers, the 5 legendary rock stars (those are dolls), the 9 knitting nannies, the 10 tiny turkeys, and the 11 wrap filled trash bags. Not actual Christmas wrap. Things that are real in the tree are the 3 gigantic keyboards, the 6 steamrolled slippers (freshly rolled by graveller), the 7 singing chipmunks (plushies), and the 8 elven movies. Those movies are DVDs that feature elves in em.

Behind the tree and if you looked sharply left, you will see the booths along the wall until there is a small corridor that leads to a dead end. On the right wall down the corridor is the janitors closet.

From the corner of that wall, there are the elevators that go up to the other floors till floor 100. Floors 99 is the inactivity members room where your spirit is magically placed until members return. Then they are magically put back where they were as if they never left. Floor 100 is the chapel for weddings. Floor 98 is the indoor pool. Floor 97 is empty of hotel rooms, its so that in case the pool ends up leaking, we do not have a flooding problem. Water pokemon patrol that floor and alert us if there is an issue so we can fix it.

From floors 4 to 96 are hotel rooms with 10 rooms on each floor.

Anyway, to the right of the elevators is the concert stage where live music is performed. There are also some tables for close up seats and the tree does block out some of the noise of the music. So if you were right by the door, you are more likely to hear a toilet flushing rather than the concert hall music.

This concludes the tour, hope you enjoyed it. questions or comments can be posted below.
