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. <:

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!

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.

Hello, happy new year! Here's a really, really quick update to kick off the year!

This is primarily a Rixixi update, but I'm excited to have various updated throughout the year for you!

it's pig

Lemon Pig companions are now available in the Witchin' Kitchen! They're essentially just a reskinned Mini Rooter that drops Citrus Fruit instead of Root Vegetables on a failed roll, but it seemed like a fun and silly quick idea to put a little companion out on the New Year since they have New Year's connotation <3 Here's hoping it's a good one!

One more small thing - since there'll be a Karma Season soon, the Karma page has been moved to Nsk Net and rephrased a bit.

There are some pretty big updates coming soon! I'm excited to get them ready!

- Anarchisme

Happy Solstice! Rixixi has cycled over to Winter, but there's also a bit of B-NOMALY news in this since we're having a multispecies event!

(The next update for The Lost should be out later today, but might be delayed a bit due to IRL stuff. Should be really soon though!)

Multispecies News

One of the Winter Festival prompts is a multispecies prompt! Check out Leyline-Connected: Chipper and the Harbinger if you'd like to do some B-NOMALY + Rixixi interaction! As it involves depicting two different species, its rewards are doubled from the usual B-NOM prompt/Winter Festival currency, and it grants 20 seasonal currency (Rixixi) and 2 Silver Tokens (B-NOMALY)!

Winter Changelog

• The Harbinger of the Funeral Pyre has arrived - another Ghost starter. While they are a standard, they have the full Primal Blood set and can throw Primals at combo mut chances.
• There's still a little story and hub on dA!
• And here's a direct link to the Events prompts!
• The Harbinger has a new gene - Blaze (nBlz/BlzBlz), an uncommon gene! This will be appearing in Chrono Shards from December 21, 2020 until April 21, 2021.
• As there is no new gene to add to Supercharged Chrono Shards, I'm randomizing a past date to pull from for both regular and supercharged chrono shards as well, and it is October 24, 2019. December 21 2020 - April 21 2021 Charged Chrono shards will also have Gallus Face, Drake Scales, Fissure, Mojave, and Dullahan. The Supercharged Chrono shards will have Shield Wings and Lava Lamp. I'll be adding this to the Chrono page soon!
• As previously mentioned, there aren't new seasonal items this year to make time for more updates. As a result, all past winter items are available in the Event prompts - there's a selection of three in Around the World and Time to Chill, and Winter Radiation is available as a bonus prompt in Dragon Sighting.

Also, Barters

Myrk's seasonal deal is in, and so is Fang! The faction T1 prompts have been cycled!

Gonna go cycle Myrk's shop out and other seasonal item changes!

Adoptables: Trailblazer | The Seers

The Prologue has updated, and another B-NOMALY has appeared! Two, actually - Vic has returned, and has a currently unreleased mutation as a result of his travels. It's probably obvious what this mutation is, and its guide will be coming out when one more B-NOMALY comes out with it - there's another planned adoptable, it'll be out soon <;

Links: Prologue: The Lost | Event Prompt: The Lost

Deep in the basement of the B-NOMALY labs, past crumbling hallways and failing machinery, a roiling crack splits the tiled floor. Dubbed the Vat, the chaotic pit would be difficult to find for most strangers stumbling across the old laboratory, as nothing leading to it is particularly of interest. Most of the inhabitants of the labs know it well, however, and it's an even split on whether a B-NOMALY might seek it out or avoid it - it's rumored to grant power and mutations, and Fogholders drift towards it without thinking about it. As the Vat is a direct link to the Chasm, the rumors aren't exactly unfounded.

Lately, more and more of the B-NOMALIES that seek out the Vat aren't coming back, and the few that do are reporting a strange phenomenon - every so often, the Vat is replaced by a glowing blue mist. Eventually, it dissipates as unexpectedly as it came, and anyone caught up in it is lost.

--

We're hosting a multispecies event, the prologue is hosted by B-NOMALY and the next few chapters will be on Rixixi. This is sort of a test (I want to see how hosting this on Nsk Net and Chasmhome works, as well as doing this with both B-NOMALY and Rixixi), but I think it'll go well?

There'll be more news updates as the story unfolds! There'll also be more B-NOMALIES to adopt, so far Trailblazer is available!
