'''Shacks''' are personal player-built wooden structures placed in [[Whisperwood]]. Each character is limited to '''one Shack''' at a time, and it functions as the player's permanent home in the forest region.

== Building a Shack ==

To place a Shack you need:

* A [[Hammer]] equipped on your hotbar
* Building materials gathered from [[Woodcutting]] and other resource skills
* A valid open tile in [[Whisperwood]]

The Shack is one of the first long-term goals for new players after the tutorial, providing a recognisable home base in a non-safe biome.

== Moving a Shack ==

Use the <code>/pickup</code> chat command to relocate your existing Shack to a new tile without demolishing and rebuilding it. This preserves the structure and saves materials.

== Limits ==

* '''One Shack per character.'''
* Must be placed in [[Whisperwood]].
* Shacks are personal — only the owner can interact with them.
