Some really quick news for Rixixi and B-NOMALY!

Rixixi News

Barters

The barters have been cycled! There's a Mymber Festival art barter up right now that awards 10 Chasm Eggs for entering - show your Rixixi playing games at the festival! The Mymbmumbles crew are also back giving karma for crafting materials!

Mymber Festival

Small heads up - the Mymber Wrestling prompt will cycle next Saturday evening, as this Saturday was only April 3rd. Sorry for any inconvenience!

B-NOMALY News

There'll be an Easter B-NOMALY adoptable up later today, in the afternoon (eastern time)! The bun is ready, I just wanna post it when more folks will be awake. <:

That's all for now, see you soon!

The area is crowded by a gaggle of Mymbers, all discussing the latest in Chasm gossip. Several Scout Mymbers have gathered together on the outskirts of the group, using the meeting to share vital information, but most of the Mymbers are just having a good time. Some of them are playing games, sharing questionable snacks, or teaching each other new things that they've learned in their travels. It looks like they're inviting all species to join in.

Happy April 1st! This year, we're celebrating with a sudden MYMBER FESTIVAL! Just a bunch of Mymbers hanging out and having fun. You can check out that linked hub for the current events going on!

You may notice that kthere are no hidden eggs this year. I had some trouble figuring out where to put them and so the scavenger hunt is delayed for ?maybe a week? - sorry for the inconvenience but I'm hoping to still set it up once I find a good spot!

Some new features released with the Mymber Festival:

Genes:

• Mumbling (+Mymb): A combination mutation! Mymber hybrid Ixi, complete with retractable arms! This can combine in breedings with Tendrils and Sleipnir, and Supercharged Fogshard Pieces will have it from April 1st 2021 - August 1st 2021!
• Snared (+Snare): A Non-Passable mutation optionally added with Blade Snare! Suggested by Steampvnks !
• Leyline (+Ley): B-NOMALIES have it as a trait, so it was inevitable! Leyline is nonpassable and is added with Enchanted Veil.

Items:

• Blade Snare: A weapon mod that increases critical chance the more it bites in a row. It can swallow the opponent... or you if it's angry. Adds Snared (+Snare) optionally. Based on a suggestion from Saphira455 !
• Enchanted Veil: Adds Leyline (+Ley). A curseblocker that doesn't count the Rixixi as a ghost.
• Mymber Cartography Kit: Can be equipped to a Mymber to add +15 to their roll!
• Like 5 lootboxes for the Chasm Egg shop (most of these existed in its dA version but weren't ported here yet)

Have fun! I may add more little minigames to the Mymber Fest if I have the time - check out the bonus tasks as well! I'm gonna go add the crafting recipes for the new items in a bit - hopefully see you soon with the scavenger hunt if all goes well!

Hey, guys! I've got some B-NOMALY news as well as the Spring Festival in Rixixi for you!

Rixixi News

As Aezaia turned away, she could swear she saw the hybrid start diluting the strange Chasm-slime that covered their paws. She didn't feel like asking, she just chuckled to herself. A mad scientist artist would be interesting to work with.

Spring Changelog

• This spring's new starter is Aechor! They've got the long-awaited Dragon Body Type mutation! It's finally here. Aechor is also half-B-NOMALY, which won't have any effect on gameplay but is intended as a hint towards upcoming features - except right before Aechor was released, the feature was incidentally suggested in the discord. B-NOMS and Rixixi will be breedable soon, confirmed
• There's a hub to mirror this stuff on dA!
• As mentioned above, Aechor has Dragon Body Type (X-DrBdy), an uncommon RXX-Nomaly Mutation! This will be appearing in Chrono Shards from March 20, 2021 until June 30, 2021. I'll be posting things re: Dragon Body Type for a bit after this news is posted - its bases will be up in just a bit, its design guide should already be up, and it may be added to the height chart later if all goes well.
• Dragon Body Type will be getting design packs for face mutations (all subspecies) and tail mutations (standard and domestic) - until then, it will not cost a Mutation Station to edit these mutations (except for tail muts on primal), even if they're fully customized. I'm hoping to get at least some of these out in April because there may be something new then?
• As previously mentioned, there aren't new seasonal items this year to make time for more updates. As a result, all past spring items are available in the Event prompts - there's a selection of three in Bunnies. and A Garden Get-Together, and Winter Radiation is available as a bonus prompt in Wandering Willow.
• Leyline-Connected: Chipper And The Harbinger has been moved to the B-NOMALY prompts library, and its Rixixi currency has been swapped to spring. It's still active, and will remain active.

Also, Barters

Myrk's seasonal deal and Cat and Mjilikae will be cycling in with the usual barter swap tonight, as I forgot to swap Cat and Mjilikae in before the season changed.

B-NOMALY News

Seraph's Styling Station

Seraph's Styling Station has been fully updated! All of its information is on Nsk Net, and design approvals are done through Chasmhome! Initially, the update was meant to make Seraph's much less confusing, but now I'm fairly certain that everything can be handled through the Lorekeeper design approvals setup in one way or another. If I've missed something, please feel free to let me know!

If you had a Bred B-NOMALY, it should be uploaded as an "Egg" MYO with all of its traits and information! Please use this to submit it/trade it/whatever you want to do with it! This makes it easier for us to handle the design approval steps of bred B-NOMS.

Breeding Plans?

As mentioned above in the Rixixi section, it's very likely that Rixixi and B-NOMALIES will be able to be freely bred together soon! (read: when I have the time to write up info) I may have to fix up the info on breeding in general now that eggs are going to the Lorekeeper - there's some other positive tweaks I was meaning to do (breeding with NPCs). Currently, breeding is still done as usual on the dA journal, and when the updates are done, the dA journal may still be used for comments - expect updates, though!

Multispecies News

All B-NOMALIES, Aexent, and Chasm Horsemen have been uploaded to the masterlist! We'll still need some testing and possibly some tweaks to things before we can upload Rixixi.

Aexent now properly have their subtype listed! Very few people have Aexent but this really wasn't a hard thing to do so why not

I think that's it - have fun, I'm gonna post dragon body stuff <:

- Anarchisme

Hey, got some Rixixi news!

Rixixi News

The Semi Sale closed a couple of days ago! Thank you for the support! We'll very likely have another one in the summer, and I'll try to announce it with more notice this time, haha.

Phoenix Update 16

We've had another Phoenix Update! You can now see previews of every planned update in the Shrine, and of course, there's some new Lore!

New Item Unlocks:

• Leyline Rooter Companion - This rooter's ability is more useful with Streetwise! It's a gravedigger pig.
• Leyline Kaurphyt Companion - Essentially a plague doctor variant of Anareizh's Patron.

Here There Be Dragons & other Karma

Due to the current Karma Season, HTBD has been ported to Nsk Net! Its chapters are available as prompts on Chasmhome. You can currently obtain Karma from it while the Karma season is active.

Also, on request, more links have been added to the Karma page! Hope that helps!

IHFY chapter 2 is about 70% written right now, and I can confirm that there is a version of the chapter with some slight modifications if you don't have the mymber with you - it's not a huge difference, but I did want to write something in to recognize the choice.

I think that's it for now - have fun!

EDIT: I forgot to post that barters have cycled but Barters have cycled haha whoops.

- Anarchisme

Multispecies news post!

Chasmhome News

Aexent and Chasm Horsemen are now being added to the Chasmho.me masterlist! As they have their own masterlists (Aexent) (Chasm Horsemen), it seemed like a good idea. All Aexent are on the site, and Chasm Horsemen are being uploaded. If a B-NOMALY has a Chasm Horseman form, both characters will be uploaded separately and link to each other.

The Aex info on nsk net is currently under construction, but Viles and Dawn have their full info hosted there! More Aex subspecies will have their info hosted on nsk net soon.

Both Aex and Chasm Horsemen are semi-open species and don't have traits so much as typical characteristics and lore - if you're interested in making one, check out their info and run your design by me (Anar) and I'll make sure they make sense with canon + pop them on the masterlist if all is good!

Rixixi News

Phoenix Update 15 is out! We've got more lore for you, and more items!

• Ancient Coin - Single use item that blocks Cursed (cheap to craft due to being a single use temporary condition block)
• Forged Death Certificate - Contraband but a more permanent Cursed blocker. It's an item that marks your living Rixixi as a ghost, much like the Leyline Mymber or Leyline Barghest (which are also Cursed blockers)

Barters will be cycling as usual in an hour or so! This news is a bit early because I didn't want to forget anything. While the new barters won't be specifically Karma-themed, all barters will grant 1 Positive Karma per Rixixi per day as long as a Rixixi is linked in the comment!

Some reminders for the stuff currently going on!

Valentines' barter!  (This will run through March 1st 2021 and end at the first second of March 2nd - Chasmho.me runs on UTC and this barter auto-ends so I gave it an extra day to account for timezones)
The extra breeding slot granted by this will now carry over to the next month(s) until used so you don't have to rush your breedings!

Semi Sale | dA journal - if this has low turnout, it'll show up again most likely in the summer, please feel free to suggest ideal dates based on your own availability if you're not available now but are interested!

That should be everything! See you soon with more stuff, let me know if I forgot something haha.

- Anarchisme

Little bit of Rixixi news! Been a bunch of news this week, haha oops.

Rixixi News

Barters have cycled! Both art/lit barters right now give extra Karma as their main reward or part of their reward. A reminder that doing any barters in a karma season gives +1 Positive Karma per Ixi per day - if you're doing an item barter, make sure to link an Ixi to get this reward!

See you soon with more stuff! The most likely next update will be the next Phoenix release. <:

Story: Prologue: The Lost | Interlude: An Interrupted Solstice | Chapter 1 | Chapters 2-3 TBA
Prompts: The Lost Event Prompt | Leyline-Connected: Chipper and the Harbinger (Multispecies Prompt) | Chapter 1 Prompt

Karma is officially active in Rixixi as I'm Here For You Chapter 1 launches! You awake in a strange blue place. Why are you here? You don't recall. Perhaps there's some overarching phenomenon going on, but you're certainly too busy down here surrounded by mist and fog to know that. Lucky for you, you have a mymber to guide you, so at least you've got that going for you.

Read up on Karma here for how to increase your Karma during an event! Your Rixixi's Karma will be stored in this sheet, your User Karma will be stored on Lorekeeper!

New NPC - Aihuu - They don't mention their name in IHFY, but since they're a NPC, they needed a name. It's pronounced like a deep breath. Including Aihuu on a trip to the Leyline will protect your Ixi from the Cursed temporary condition! They're here for you.

"New" NPCs: Jim and Jinn - they've been waiting on a ref for like 2 years now. I'll figure out how best to make them interactable in Lorekeeper like they were in HTBD! I've got plans for them.

Here There Be Dragons will be moved to Lorekeeper soon as well, and it will grant Karma during the Karma Season.

There's also a semi sale going on right now too. Check it out! I'm going to make a dA journal linking to it so that folks can comment on the journal if there's any trouble with commenting/lorekeeper stuff while the sale is active.

See you soon with barters (gonna have some karma flavor!) and hopefully some more story modes being moved to Chasmhome.

Mostly Rixixi news here! Just a reminder of a couple things coming up and a heads up that there's a special barter this month! c:

Rixixi News

There's a Valentines' Day barter up for the duration of February! Draw/write about some Ixi together to get a starter slot of your choice and an extra breeding for the month!

Also, as a reminder, Semi-customs will be coming up on February 5th! Here's the semicustom rules, and here's the last semicustom sale we held, if you need to reference them! It'll last for around a month, and we might have a sale in the summer too (probably if there's low turnout). Funds are first and foremost going to funding the site, and if we have extra, it'll go towards the group in some way!

I'm Here For You Chapter 1 is coming probably around the same day - I don't want to give a definite ETA in case something comes up, but it's close enough to ready that it'll be around there!

See you on the 5th!

- Anarchisme

Hey guys! This is a multispecies news post!

General Site News

You've probably noticed that the Lorekeeper has updated! I don't fully know what all the updates are right now! We've got comments installed as an add-on, so as we get used to that, we should be able to work that into prompts better. If you've got B-NOMALIES uploaded to the site, you can set separate gift art and gift writing permissions, and set a profile link - I've set these to the dA masterlist link for a default link, but if you have a toyhouse for your B-NOM or something, feel free to use that!

A couple quick things -

The lineages are a WIP, but we've got lineages in and being worked on, so that's neat!

The URLs did update for a couple of things, so some existing links broke. Most of what I've noticed is that prompts updated from chasmho.me/worlds/prompts to chasmho.me/prompts/prompts, so every existing prompt link I had around broke V: I've updated most of them but I probably missed some! Let me know if you bump into some.

Also, on a different topic and technically a different site - IHFY has a little hub on Nsk Net now, and the Rixixi chapters (Chapter 1 at least) should be launching in early February!

Rixixi News

We're almost definitely going to have a semicustom sale at the start of February (probably the 5th, running into early March) unless a bunch of you let me know that's a bad idea and to hold out for a bit! So like, if you need me to wait (or just to hold another one later too), please make yourself known! Here's the semicustom rules, and here's the last semicustom sale we held, if you need to reference them!

There have been some small updates around the site to accommodate an upcoming Karma Season. If you had Karma left over from HTBD, it's been sent to your account! The Karma Shop will be coming soon!

Also, as usual, barters have swapped! Fang and the Rock Collector are back!

B-NOMALY News

Along with the B-NOMALY stuff at the top of the news here, more B-NOMALIES are being uploaded, and Doppelganger's guide has been made! It's kind of a WIP in the sense that I'm not totally happy with its wording and might touch it up, but I did manage to grab a bunch of examples with existing B-NOMALIES and 1 additional doodle. The uploads previously stopped at where Doppelganger was implemented, so now more B-NOMs can be uploaded soon! <:

A lot of stuff here is a WIP and going to need prodding at, but that's where we're at now! Semicustoms and IHFY soon! More B-NOM uploads! Lorekeeper updates with more updates soon! Yeah <:

Hey, we've got some Rixixi news today!

Rixixi News

EXPLORABLE LEYLINE!

When passing between two forked trees, a strangely silent doorway, or through another Space Between, some people have reported the shadows leaning into them, a blue mist swirling at the corner of their eyes. Some have gone missing, and only a few have turned up later. Fewer yet come back with their face.

The Leyline is now explorable due to Phoenix Update 14! (Phoenix Lore here!)

Turn in Explorations here - Read about Canon Worlds here

As this is the Nskanetian land of the dead, it comes with some risks - that is to say, a unique Temporary Condition, Cursed. Unlike other Temporary Conditions, Cursed rolls at an uncommon rate - however, it will only appear in the Leyline, and will only restrict the Rixixi from traveling to the Leyline until cured. It can be cured with a Funerary Mask item, which has been added to the First Aid kit! Any user who has previously redeemed the Temporary Conditions Starter Pack has received a Funerary Mask.

You might notice two of the immunities in the Temporary Conditions list for Cursed currently don't exist! Those will be implemented in the next Phoenix release.

Several items have been added with the release of the Leyline - more will be coming in the future, but for launch, the new items are:

• Shuck's Bushel - Berries native to the Leyline
• Leywine - Fermented Shuck's Bushel and questionable chemical substances, tastes like embalming fluid. Some Leyline locals find it nostalgic. Permanent +50 to a random stat but causes an instant debuff due to being a hard liquor.
• Hagfish - Hagfish! I'll be adding hagfish slime in the future.
• Eel - Suggested by Ace574 ! I love eels.
• Leystone - It's the "pure" form of Corecracker Lodestone, and can be broken down into it.
• Leyline Barghest - A very common threat in the Leyline.
• Funerary Mask - Doesn't drop in the Leyline, but still a newly added item. Created via crafting.

The Leyline is a major part of the I'm Here For You event, and you'll be seeing more of it in the Rixixi side of the event soon! There may be some more delay than expected getting it out - hopefully not much, will give an update if needed! I am a walking medical drama right now.

Barters

Barters have cycled! Apologies for the delay, there was some IRL stuff going on.
