Island Paradise

HOUSE BOATS

• You may start your apocalypse on a house boat
• You must use the largest size flat barge
• Prior to Politics, you may only build 2 levels above the deck or one level below deck and one level above.
• Your house foot print must be no larger than 8×8 (or 10×10 with “Privileged Family” advantage).
• You do not need to place a foundation on the deck, the boat itself acts as a foundation. You may still decide to build your house on stilts to get some free space under the house.
• Houseboats must stay moored where they are placed until Military has been cleared
• You may not fish or swim or otherwise go into the water off the side of your house boat till Athletic and Naturalist are cleared

MERMAIDS

• You may choose to play a Mermaid apocalypse by taking The Siren’s Call occult handicap.
• You may marry in a Mermaid, however prior to Medical restrictions being cleared they will probably quickly die of dehydration.
  • If they aren’t able to swim in the ocean or in a swimming pool, and they don’t die, then they will revert in a few days to fully human.

SNORKELING, DIVING AND OTHER WATER SPORTS

• All water sports are restricted by Athletic, Military and Naturalist

NOTE:  You may attempt to lift Politics using the Island Paradise method even if Athletic, Military, and Naturalist are not yet cleared. See Politics for details.
