Player Owned Caravans are custom caravans owned by Traders of sufficient level.

In addition to being able to store goods in a storage box on the caravan, Traders can also use it to travel through many of the Elathian roadways. Choosing to travel in this manner allows the Trader (and their passengers) to bypass many of the standard dangers and skill checks associated with traveling by foot.

Caravan interiors are purchased from any trade minister by ASKing them about INTERIOR. This currently draws from a random pool of standard interior descriptions, so what you get is what you get.

Caravan customizations can be purchased at the following stores:

Customization options

Requirements

Caravans have exterior/animal, exterior items, interior, furniture, and bumper plate options.

Option Level
Bumper plate 25th
Exterior/animal 25th
Exterior items 25th, any other customization
Interior 50th
Furniture 50th, interior

Exterior look

Both a custom LOOK and bumper plates can be added to your caravan. If you wish to change one or the other you must first purchase a blank canvas or image respectively from Primp my Ride to clear your current one.

Exterior items

Once any modification has been acquired for a carvan, an exterior shelf may be purchased from As the Caravan Turns that has a "lazy susan" style rotating platter. The following items be purchased, only one of which may be active at the same time.

  • Standard disposal bucket.
  • Scales: Gives the weight of an object, though it has weight and size limits.
  • Wayerd pyramid: Bolted on, functional, but non-cambrinth.
  • A tray: Will hold 5 items temporarily. Must be removed before the caravan is stabled.

TURN is used to change the active item, and STUDY will detail the use and syntax for the item.

Furniture

Furniture items for your caravan interior can be purchased at shops specific to the purpose. Furniture shops that sell items for a player owned home cannot be used for your caravan, and vice versa. You are limited to 1 door, 2 large, 3 medium and 4 small items inside your caravan at a time. Shops will indicate which size the item you are purchasing is at the time of purchase.

Furniture items inside your caravan display in one of two ways. They can be displayed openly in the "You also see" section of the room LOOK or they can be grouped into general furniture items which can be seen only by using LOOK FURNITURE. By default, the first two pieces you add to your caravan will display in the room look and the rest will be added to the general furniture grouping. You can use TAP to toggle which way each individual piece of furniture to displays. There is not currently any way to change the order that your furniture displays except by removing and replacing them in the order you want.

By default, only you and members of your group that you lead in can access your caravan's interior. By using TURN DOOR while inside your caravan will toggle between having your caravan door locked or unlocked, which allows anyone to enter your caravan without your escort.

If you wish to remove a furniture piece so that you can replace it with another you can visit any trade minister and ASK MINISTER ABOUT FURNITURE to view a list of your current items followed by ASK MINISTER ABOUT REMOVAL. Once you select a furniture item to remove, the minister will give you a furniture slip in exchange for a few gold. This slip can be stored, sold, traded, or discarded as desired. If you wish to restore an item on a furniture slip back to your caravan you can GIVE it to any trade minister.

Reset

While in the past there have been options to reset the exterior/animal and bumper plate options, it was not present at Guildfest 405 or later.

There has yet to be a method to reset the interior.
