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!

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

HELP SORRY THAT THIS IS LATE I'VE BEEN HAVING A MEDICAL

• This Summer's new starter is Bede, who just wants sea glass. He has five new genes:
• (all new genes this summer are Ketucari clones in preparation for the Veluchasm festival)
• New gene: Lycaon (nLyc/LycLyc). African Painted Dog gene.
• New gene: Oil Paint (nPnt/PntPnt), this was almost called Paint until I remembered Painted... this is basically wet koi
• New Gene: Ventspots (nVt/VtVt), side stripes
• New Gene: Aura (nAu/AuAu), adds iridescence to horns, nails, frills, eyes, skin, teeth, etc
• New Gene: Rainstreaks (nRn/RnRn), pale short streaks down the Ixi.
• There's a dA hub!
• The seasonal Raid has rolled over, please someone get these bugs out of my house, help

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

If anyone needs an extension on Pride Month let me know
Also it was mentioned in the discord, so in case I forget to put it on the actual Pride Month page: yes you can use a starter/NPC for Pride Month. if you want their identity ask an admin we might know
Bede is bi this is how this came up

hey

It's Pride Month.

Pride month is back up at the usual page! (well, it never left, but the links are active again, haha)
You can head there to check out the details and join in on the group collab image that we do every year! All Chasmhome species are welcome, anyone with an import or even just a reference for the non-import species is all good! Ketixi and K-NOMS 100% allowed, crossovers 100% allowed, I know that was a question last year and yes as long as the other group allows crossovers you are A-OK to go!

Have fun if you join in, we're looking forward to seeing everyone's entries!

While the payouts for the prompt mainly benefit Rixixi and B-NOMALIES, we're currently trying to figure out prompts for Aex and bonuses for Aex. I genuinely don't know how pride month bonuses will play into this! Working on it! Just a heads up!

.

Quick update on the geno transfer to MYOs:

it is still going, I swear, there are just so many genos so it's taking a bit fdggh. But it's going. I'm in the earlier quarters of the breeding journal, then I'll move to additional geno sources, like the initial X-NOM crossover, euphoria threads, the new breeding prompts, semicustoms, and so on. so if it seems like i'm skipping some it might be in another journal... oops.

Anyways, have fun, see you soon!

Hey, big thing going on here -

Rixixi News

DESIGN APPROVAL AND BREEDING (FOR RIXIXI) ARE CLOSED TEMPORARILY
(b-nom breedings are still open)

I am porting all genos to MYO slots! They will be linked on the breeding comment/live transmutation comment/etc for ease of finding where they've gone! THIS WILL TAKE A WHILE. Sorry in advance for the wait. When they're ported, Design Approval will reopen on this lorekeeper site, and breedings will open back up!

I know there is quite a backlog of designs and breedings - sorry about that, I was just having a hard time setting aside a good day for them! They will still be gotten to, they're still valid. However, if you are sent to corrections, it'll have to wait, corrections is Closed.

Sorry again for the wait, fingers crossed that this isn't too painful!

UPDATE:

If you have a MYO geno uploaded to the site, you're allowed to design it and upload it to the site. Please feel free to ask if you're confused by the process, I don't have a page written up for it yet but it's the same method as B-NOMALIES. I normally would prefer everyone to be on equal footing but I want to sort of test some beta features that were added to MYOs and so this would help me out greatly if anyone is interested. No pressure though, only if you have one you want to upload.

Semi-random trait update

B-NOMALY News

Polydactyl and Shell are now available for B-NOMALIES! As this was not due to an adoptable, they don't have examples, but hopefully the text is clear enough, let me know if it's not.

Multispecies news

Sleipnir on B-NOMS and Rixixi can display polydactyly without needing polydactyl! It made enough sense.

Enjoy!
