Happy Aprilween

HUB HERE

We're still picking up from hiatus, so I hope you don't mind that this April is pretty chill! It's still got the scavenger hunt (already up! you may have seen an egg) and the usual bonus prompts that are annual, but other than that there's just a raffle commemmorating some of the releases from previous years!

To enter, you can select a raffle ticket for Mumbling Heights (left) or Do Androids Dream Of Astroturf Mechanix (right) on ANY egg claim. One raffle ticket per claim, but you can claim up to 8 tickets per person - you can dump all your tickets into one Ixi/Mechanix or split them up, whichever you want! There's a bit more details on the hub on their items.

And speaking of cleaning up from hiatus, changelog:

• There is now a Temporary Design Approval Page, for genos not ported to MYOs yet. It's limited to 1/day currently, so that I can continue porting the genos to MYOs once I finish spring cleaning. I am just so tired of having that on hold but it was on hold so that the queue wouldn't go wild, so I hope you don't mind the limit for now! Thanks!
• Item Use prompt moved to site because uh I may have been intending to do that for ages now lol
• Rixixi and B-NOMALIES are officially marked as Semi-Open on their info pages, and the Chasm-Connected Bestiary, which I swear I fixed the images on before and I guess I have to do again? oh boy. Aexent were already marked as Semi-Open but their page now makes it clearer that it's about the masterlist. As for Ixi and B-NOMS, you can make them as characters, you just need a geno/MYO for actual gameplay. I've been fine with this for a long time and said as such, I'm just making it official.
  KETIXI AND K-NOMS ARE STILL CLOSED DUE TO HYBRIDIZATION SORRY. IF I GET MORE SPECIFIC RULES FROM MOON I'LL PUT 'EM ON THE KETIXI PAGE.
• Training Mode EXP was doubled or tripled across the board. Rixixi as an ARPG is meant to reward both activities and random drawings and meanwhile I've had extreme burnout due to only doing activities in ARPGs for years, and trying to get to the point where I could get one out a day. look just have fun ok. is only game.
  "doesnt this wildly overpower roothornes" yes. it's fine. you still have to do story modes i'm not removing that, i just intend to add more options for it to make it more fun.
• Kellas Cat Gifting Service also doubled (currency only)
• Rad Sickness moved to site which means i FINALLY REMEMBERED TO POST THE INVERTED RAD SICKNESS FOR HORSEMAN HOST IM SORRY. I JUST KIND OF DIDNT KNOW WHERE TO PUT THAT UNTIL I MOVED IT IM SO SORRY LOL
• Also this was a couple days ago but the Fridge Werewolf reference was mirrored to other sites, if you need the non-dA links. TUMBLR | BLUESKY | WEASYL | FURAFFINITY

PROBABLY DOING THIS TOMORROW

• i literally said i was doing the rolls today and spent too much time cleaning up things that i meant to do ages ago omg i'm so sorry. i'm on it asap.
• I was ALSO meaning to update Chasm Fae lore before I forget again today but uh, as you can see, all these things happened too, so that's coming very soon I swear

COMING SOON

• 3

no one would... no one would get that joke it's literally a joke my dad made and no one would get that. it's 4 AM, i forgot what i meant to type there, and i finished the sentence as coming soon: 3. i'm leaving my shame.

i need to go and rest lol. see you tomorrow.

changelog

"wait uh anarchie where have you been"

changelog explaining that

• Veluchasm on pause due to no longer having matching admins with Ketucari. In talks with Ketucari admins on how to make things work as things stand, but events are on hold at current, and what we are working on is making uploads and activities still functional in the meantime. I'm really sorry for the delay.
• Please do not bother any previous Chasmhome + Ketucari admins about this. This is not intended as public drama for entertainment. The reason this news was so delayed going up from the discord version was I was not sure how to phrase it, and I'm sorry for that.
• Site has been successfully transferred between staff. There may be delays due to figuring out code. Please let me know if there's an issue!
• APIs used to attach chasmhome logins to other sites have been updated. If there's any bugs with that, please let us know, I probably just copied the code wrong.
• Twitter is no longer a link used on Chasmhome due to possible security and general Twitter issues. Sorry if you were using it, I was told no one used it as a primary so I hope that was correct?
• Pride is on the Wayback Machine, successfully!
• Most of the masterlist is on the Wayback machine and this will be retouched after upload sessions if possible.

upcoming

• Literally going into the queue within the next few days now that the site status is confirmed stable. Sorry that I didn't before. Site was uh. Somewhere. Wasn't sure how somewhere.
• Working on writing the story for the event. Might not have the staff for an event right now but I at least want the story written??
• Figuring out how to reopen design approvals in a manageable way while still uploading genos to the site. Tired of having them closed. Might just make a temp page to drop things off at with a reasonable limit to not cause psychic damage. Feel free to leave feedback on that here.
• Genuinely might make Rixixi and B-NOMALIES semi-open, allowing them to be open outside of the game setting and requiring a geno/MYO to play the game. This is mostly due to me keeping having medical issues. I mean if I'm going to be unavailable a lot I should still let people play with them. It's under consideration. Again, feel free to leave feedback.

Sorry for the delay and for not sending the news sooner, uh, site transfer, needed to learn how to use things, also needed to figure out how to phrase that. The site works so I am confirmed here. Genuinely really sorry about that and I'll see you soon, yeah?

(bursts in the door with 5 doctors attached to me) yeah well you should see the other guy

Multispecies News: SORRY FOR THE IMPROMPTU HIATUS? I'M BACK

Hey all! I know I said I was back from medical before. Turns out that it's apparently really hip and cool to be incapacitated by chronic pain?
(turns to someone behind me who is shaking their head.)
Update, it is apparently not hip and cool and I really goofed it this time.

I finally got my pain meds I'm back now.

Will you be rolling things

oh my god yes i'm starting a little later so i can finish what i'm doing now but yes

What happens when you inevitably need pain meds again

I do not control the rate at which lobsters die

No but seriously I'm going to at least try to be more communicative of this if I can't get myself or anyone else on top of things because I really was not this time and I'm very sorry.

So what actually happened because that was like 2-3 months

genuinely if you want to know you can dm me on discord because i feel weird putting it here but i will answer if someone wants that for like, either concern reasons or open communication reasons. the tl;dr is "several things and some repeating things" :V

so what's uh

PRIDE IMAGE IS UP

yall it's november i'm so sorry everything happens so much. thank you for bearing with me. it's finally up though

one more thing

A friend and I were playing Earthbound together during all of this and I noticed a quote.

What a great photograph! It will always bring back the fondest of memories.

The Fond Memories items were originally meant to be photos taken to commemmorate a visit to a location. I did not know about this quote, this was my first Earthbound run. So uh.

Everyone gets a Fond Memories: Earth.

literally everyone active on the site except the spambots. i might accidentally send one to a spambot. say fuzzy pickles.

OKAY I THINK THAT'S ABOUT IT.

See you soon for real.

A trail of golden leaves scattered across the fall-tinted underbrush. Uuner ran one of the chrysopoeia-plated plants through their fingers, the glamoured púca plodding along through the forest, watching their feet as they followed an increasing number of shimmering leaves and flowers. The occasional golden nut or acorn joined in as well, a round object glinting as it rolled along.

At the end of the trail was a dark-furred dwarf primal, ros wings beating as ro fidgeted with another little object. Uuner came up behind ros and one of the fidgeting wings immediately reached out, slapping them across the chest. The fae chuckled and jumped back as the primal got to ros feet.

"Don't look!" Aurea scoffed, hiding something behind ros back, but then ros expression softened. "Oh- oh, your eminence. I'm sorry, I'm making you a gift, I didn't want anyone to see."

Uuner chuckled deep in their throat. "It's sweet of you. I don't need anything, but I like the gesture." They reached down, picking up a gilded leaf. "Is this all safe for the forest?"

The dwarf primal bobbed their head sheepishly. "It's just rocks. It'll wipe off or crumble off in time."

Uuner hummed, turning the other way. "I think your rocks are very nice."

Fall Changelog

• This Summer's new starter is Aurea, who is glitterbombing the forest please help. Ro has two new genes:
• New gene: Gilded (nGild/GildGild). It's basically Forgeblood but on the outside?
• New gene: Kintsugi (nKt/KtKt), it's groundbreaking++
• There is no longer a dA hub as we are moving as much as possible off of dA. More on this in the Veluchasm news at the bottom.
• The seasonal Raid has rolled over, time to go fishing...?
• 'how's the geno transfer and pride month image going' i got isekai'd by the hospital haha umm
  okay so not literally, i was only in the hospital for a day, but everything happens so much, there's been like a new thing wrong every week. uh. those things are still happening they're just happening slowly, i swear i'm still here. everyone has been super patient and nice i just wanted to say something on that.

Everything should be rolled over, if you see something mentioning a season that's not fall let me know!

- Anarchie

Hey all, just a second, I need to be unprofessional for a second, how are you, I'm

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

okay, now that we've gotten that out of the way

Hey, I've been under the weather for a while now and I was too out of it to think of how going off dA would effect the rollover to fall. (Going off of dA was mentioned in Veluchasm if you missed it) Let me take a day to get things ready while I make sure things are set up off dA properly and actually ready. Fall will be going up midday (mid-evening? I'm nocturnal, sorry!) 23rd of September. Sorry about that.

Feel free to get your last-minute Summer stuff in, I'll try and roll what I can after I get things prepped!

The Veluchasm Festival!

Runs August 11, 2023 - 11:59 PM - September 11, 2023 (Pacific Time)

Sorry for the delay! We were trying to figure out what to do about a dA problem! Details at the end!

We have drinks, streamers, sparklers, and aliens, no matter which world you’re celebrating on! The denizens of Velukaelo and those of the Chasm-Connected worlds have been aware of each other for years, and our celebration is back and better than ever!

While Ketucari and Rixixi have had relationships every now and again, something new has started to spring up - a hybrid species referred to as the Ketixi! With the help of B-NOMALY mechanic Steele and expert engineer Kenkasei, the B-NOMALY’s breeding safety machine was altered with tarn water to safely join the genes of Rixixi and Ketucari while filtering out all sorts of possible issues. While it is possible to create a Ketixi naturally, it is rare, so we recommend use of the machine!

Something else new has cropped up again - with further experiments to the breeding safety machine, Ketucari and B-NOMALIES have been able to hybridize into what passes as a bipedal companion on Velukaelo and a subtype of B-NOMALY in the Chasm! KETU-NOMALIES stand mostly bipedally, and have a few K-NOM specific traits such as Godkiller Face and Godkiller Hands due to their heritage!

Further, the Manticore Alchemy Ring has taken to certain traits of Ketixi, making new Ketixi Manticores. This is... normal, we're sure. We're not going to question them. It's probably fine.

HELLO

Pride Month Extension

Sorry to only announce this on the 4th of July but I had a medical happen once again |D You're all good to submit things to the Pride event until the 14th. Have fun.

Apparently I never removed the dates from last year that said it was open to the 14th (albeit... 2023...) so, uh, it was meant to be.

Where is the meningitis/fireworks mechanix?

SORRY I HAVE A MIGRAINE WHICH IS VERY IRONIC FOR MENINGITIS SURVIVAL DAY. HONESTLY THIS IS VERY FUNNY. (IT'S MOSTLY AURAS NOW I'M OK)

I may be doing a late fireworks or meningitis mechanix but it will not be appearing on the 4th. Apologies for the inconvenience and thanks for understanding <:

Happy whatever you celebrate. See you soon!

Wingbeats jostled the waves, sending droplets of water pounding up into the air. A dwarf primal flew over the foamy surf to the beach. Something followed them, a shadow in the water, small but quick. The dwarf primal touched down, bare feet padding along the rocky shore. Colorful stones and polished glass glistened, wet and shining in the sunlight. Aurri leapt out of the surf to stand beside the primal, shaking off water briefly before looking over the shore. The wave rider whistled.

"It's beautiful," Aurri said. "Look what you've found, huh, Bede?"

Bede kicked at the sand and nodded, unsure what to say in response. Curious, the small Ixi started picking through the colorful items, looking for rocks of interest. Aurri knelt down beside them, looking back and forth across the colorful shore.

"Need any help?" Aurri piped up.

"No, I've got it," Bede nodded. "If you want to stay and pick up some too, go ahead."

Aurri smiled, jogging a bit across the beach and plopping down to sift through some pink and red glass. Just wait until they showed everyone else. They would love it here.

SUMMER Changelog
