Just a very small Barter Swap announcement for Rixixi!

Rixixi News

The Art Barter (it's Fang!) and the Faction Tier 1 prompts have cycled, but the Item Barter is the same so that FRIED MEME can continue giving out candy through Halloween! Enjoy!

Got a combination of B-NOMALY and Rixixi updates, mostly stuff being transferred off dA!

B-NOMALY News

Chasmho.me Traits List

B-NOMALY traits are being transferred to Chasmhome, and B-CLASS traits have been transferred to the traits list! More updates to this soon!

Navigation Page

The Nsk Net Navigation Page has been updated to have a B-NOMALY tab! The dA page for B-NOMALY is still about the same because most of the links came from it, but seeing as there's a Nsk Net Nav link at the top of the Lorekeeper, it really needed this v:

(there's also a WIP tab for other chasm-connected species)

Rixixi News

Canon Worlds 2.0

Canon Worlds has been moved to Nsk Net! Most of it is copied from the original journal, but there's a few previews of planned features there, including sub-location pages (currently only a Nether Steps page), a few extra listed shrines that haven't been released yet, and information on an unreleased but planned location.

Chasm-Connected Bestiary

The Chasm-Connected Bestiary has been updated to include a couple of canon creatures that only exist in items (the Vyldes Shovelnose + Sanguine Snare) and also the Kyaine, which I forgot to add apparently??

 

There's today's updates! Enjoy!

Very small Rixixi update!

Barters Cycled

The Art Barter and Item Barter prompts have cycled to two Fall-themed prompts! TREAT FOR TRICK will stick around for two barter cycles so that it'll be around for Halloween, because that just seems fitting V:

This is a very tiny update but barter cycle updates are useful for my own records as well so I hope you don't mind! Enjoy!

Smallish news post today, involving both B-NOMALY and Rixixi! C:

B-NOMALY NEWS

There's a seasonal prompt going on for all of October! You can do the Fridge Werebun prompt to get a Bunshifter: Fridge Parasite item along with the usual B-NOMALY prompt items! There's also a Trick or Treat! prompt that's available year round but especially relevant now - it's a regular B-NOM prompt, so it doesn't have any extra items attached, but if you're in a seasonal mood it might be fun, y'know? <: Have fun, be a monster if you like, enjoy yourself!

Since I forgot to announce Fridge Werebun at the start of October (I'm sorry! I had it on an automatic timer with Lorekeeper but then I had amnesia.), I've extended it a week into November - it was originally just through October. I hope this helps, sorry about my nonsense!

A note that might be useful - if you're in both B-NOMALY and Rixixi, you can stack the B-NOMALY Trick or Treat prompt with the Rixixi Trick or Treat Fall Festival prompt in the same image!

RIXIXI NEWS

Phoenix update 11 has come out, and there's two new free backgrounds!

You can apply these to any Ixi at Import Updates!

That's all for now, enjoy!

Another Rixixi-specific update because the Medic release is out! Let's get into that.

Rixixi Updates

Temporary Conditions

Starting now, Temporary Conditions will roll with loot-dropping activities. Check that link to read up on them if you haven't already - or to see if there are any changes if you already have! Some changes from the first announcement include:

  • All current Temporary Conditions have had their frequency decreased to rare - there is an upcoming one linked to an unreleased activity that will be uncommon.
  • An opt-out item has been implemented, and can be crafted! It can also be found in First Aid Kits. It does disable the Medic specialty for the Rixixi wearing it, but only while equipped.
  • Leveling Up now grants resistance, and eventually immunity, to all conditions! This starts at the Active level!
  • Mymber's Heart Valve's resistance applies to all Ixi in a piece. Medix and Triage Mechanix apply their Mechanix resistances to all Ixi in a piece, and their companions.

There's very likely more but everything has been slowly releasing over the last month and I'm a little scatterbrained right now!

Some Important Features!

  • There's a Free Gift to claim! It's a First Aid Kit, which contains every Temporary Condition cure and an Anareizh's Enchanted Scarf. It won't expire, but please only claim it once per user!
  • Anareizh's Shrine is now active! The Nskanetian Guardian of Medicine and Poison offers healing here, and this does not count against the 1/Monthly Guardian counter - you can get healed by Anareizh and still interact with other Guardians. They also have a shop, but I had a moment and was only able to stock it with a First Aid Kit. More coming soon!!
  • You can now be a Medic at the Contraband Enforcement Station! More ways to legally obtain contraband, more ways to get cures, and what's more, you're essentially getting points and more cures just by healing. More stuff here soon too!!

 

Medic Part 1.5 Incoming

There were a few things that I couldn't get out in time for this update - this month has just kind of been chaotic. One of them is half-prepped, and the plan is to release them all when the companion is finished. Here's a list of what's coming soon that was originally planned for this release.

  • Skill for the Medic specialty - resists all Temp conditions (possibly 30% resistance?), and when the Ixi with the skill is depicted in a piece with others, everyone in that piece gets the resistance.
  • Skill for Anareizh's shrine - just a little something for combat, resists Damage over Time for a few turns.
  • Companion for Anareizh's shrine - Anareizh's Patron, a snake companion. Replaces the need for an item heal 1/week.

Barters

  • Barters have cycled and Fang is back as usual!
  • As this is the first Barter cycle of Fall, Myrk's Seasonal Sale will be cycling away for the season after October 10th!
  • Luminol is here with Morgue Dance Party, trading you some cures!

Have fun!

Rixixi has officially updated to Fall, and there's been some significant changes in how the festivals are being handled, so here's a quick rundown of what those changes are!

RIXIXI UPDATE

Fall Changelog

  • Festival Events are now hosted on Lorekeeper! You can find the Fall 2020 events easily at this link! I have seasonal events sorted to the top of the the prompts because events, so you'll probably see them pretty easily if you just check out the prompts at all!
  • Most RNG aspects have been removed from event loot - I got tired of not giving people stuff. Fond Memories are now guaranteed instead of being a 50% chance, and the RNG for FM: Chasm has been removed from Chipper's events - you can just choose from any Fond Memories in a Chipper event now, including Chasm. The Special Starters in Chipper events do still run on RNG - Check out Trick or Treat! | Fall 2020 to see how we're running this on Lorekeeper!
  • There's still a dA hub with a little bit of story, because I kind of like having a small hub that points over here, but it was just getting hard to handle everything and all the events.
  • Rat Tail (+Rat) has been implemented as a common fur length mutation! Since there haven't been any other gene releases, the Meteor Showers 2020 Chrono set has been extended to December 21, and Rat Tail has been retroactively added to it!

I think that's it! Have fun, happy fall! There's the Medic release coming soon as well as some more plans in the works! c:

Rixixi news again! An assortment of things - mainly pages moved off of dA recently as well as some updates to the Temp Conditions system pre-launch!

Rixixi News

Quick Misc. News

(because I don't want it to get missed)

Due to a recent Phoenix update, Ghosts can now breed with Non-Ghosts! While there are no uploaded Ghost Rixixi yet, this opens the way further for things like Ghost Starters, and for more freedom for future player-owned Ghosts!

Recent Off-dA Pages

  • Genetics has been ported to Nsk Net, as all Rixixi traits are now on Chasmho.me! B-NOMALY traits are next as far as traits go!
  • Leveling Up and How To Earn Experience Points have been ported together into one Nsk Net page! The actual Leveling Up via comment is still done via the dA journal, but all info has been moved and some has been rephrased - there's also some new bonuses listed under certain power levels!
  • The Adoption Center Dropoff is a prompt now due to how smoothly the gift basket rolls as a loot table! The rest of the Adoption Center journal is still back on dA.
  • Adoption Credit Rewards are a shop here on Lorekeeper, which is something I kept forgetting to do, whoops, at least it's here now |D
  • Combat is currently not available. I have a bunch of notes on how I want to touch it up and I just need to sit down and make some time to do it, but I wanted to make sure it was offline first. It shouldn't be down for long, sorry in advance if there's a small wait!

Temporary Conditions Updates

As a reminder, Temporary Conditions will not be in effect until the 27th!

  • All current Temporary Conditions have been updated to Rare. There is a planned Temporary Condition that will be Uncommon in the future, as it is specialized to an upcoming activity and will involve more outright becoming immune than focusing on cures.
  • Aloe and Velvet Cactus have been added to Hunting (Commonly found when hunting Plant-Creature), to make them slightly more common.
  • The item Mymber Heart Valve and the Mechanix Chips Medix and Triage have had their skill text updated due to Temp Condition-related changes.
  • All Ixi imports are having small changes added to them (a Conditions: section underneath the stats). As of typing this up, I'm up to import 201, and mostly had to stop earlier because of lag.

This might be the last update before Fall comes up, but if there's anything incredibly important to note right before Fall, there'll be a last minute news post! Have fun!

All Rixixi news again! It's mostly items, but also some information on the upcoming Temporary Conditions release.

Rixixi Updates:

Temporary Conditions Updates:

Some updates to the Temporary Conditions feature, based on player feedback:

  • There will be an equippable item that opts out of the feature entirely (granting immunity to all temporary conditions, but also may restrict the Rixixi from entering the Medic specialty due to how much Medic will be tied into Temp Conditions). I don't have an exact recipe, but it'll be similar in item amount and rarity as crafting an Apparel.
  • Certain Rixixi levels will grant resistance and eventually immunity to all temporary conditions - 30% at Active, 70% at Irradiated, and full immunity at Omnipotent. The levelup page is being rewritten, and the new page will list these bonuses as well as a couple others!
  • Mymber Heart Valves will grant temp condition resistance to all Rixixi in a piece if they're listed as a resistance, to keep their Temp Condition resistance use in line with the original use of the item. This'll be written into the skill by the time temp conditions fully launches.
  • There will likely be a Medic-purchaseable skill tree that grants temp condition resistance to all Rixixi in a piece, and applies to all temp conditions - essentially a buffed Mymber Heart Valve skill. I don't have the exact resistance percentage finalized yet (30% or 50% is likely), but this was a suggestion!

Most suggestions were based around allowing players to earn ways to resist conditions, or just opt out. That's totally valid. This is meant to be more to do, not an annoyance to have to deal with. c: Thank you for the suggestions as to how to make this more interesting!

I'm still eyeing the rates for the conditions, will make a news post if I change them.

New Items:

Some of these have been up for a while, but it's been a bit since these have been gone over:

Misc:

It's been two weeks already! Barters have cycled!

That's all for now! As a heads up, I'll probably be extending the current Chrono shard dates through the fall because while I want to add a gene or two if I have the time (I never did get around to adding rat tail and that's a pretty quick one), I can't promise I'll be able to add a rare/combo, and I don't want any empty supercharged chronos.

Have fun!

Hello! Today's news post is all about Rixixi, but with the Rixixi Traits being ported, we're coming closer to the B-NOMALY traits being ported, so there'll be some larger B-NOMALY updates soon! We've got some larger Rixixi updates today though, so read on for that!

rIXIXI UPDATES

Today's updates include a preview of a major upcoming feature as well as an update to several kitchen recipes' stats!

Temporary Conditions

This is a major upcoming feature, and as it will change gameplay significantly, is currently being previewed for about a month before officially entering gameplay!

TEMPORARY CONDITIONS - NSK NET

This had been suggested a long time ago, and will become more relevant with an upcoming Phoenix Shrine release - Temporary Conditions will roll along with certain activities, typically at an uncommon to rare rate. Until the Ixi is healed from these conditions, they are impeded or stopped from doing activities. They can be healed by crafting items or by art/lit pieces depicting healing.
Most of the conditions are based off of existing Radiation Sickness debuffs - they're essentially temporary mini rad sicknesses, in functionality.

Any of the items listed for cures that don't exist yet will be released with Temporary Conditions themselves, as well as several other things in the full Medic Release! Here's the current plans:

  • Aloe - will drop in Earth and Nskanetis (probably the Chasm)
  • Velvet Cactus - will drop in Sxriix (probably the Chasm)
  • Mymber Blood Transfusion - crafted from Science Kit + Colorpitch
  • Bandage - Leather + (Aloe/Velvet Cactus)
  • Splint - Bandage + Wood
  • ANAREIZH'S SHRINE - New Nsk Guardian Shrine. Offers 1 free heal per month (no sacrifice needed), accepts sacrifices 1/week for healing. Does not count against monthly guardian count. May also offer other things for purchase in a shop, like Thoriane.
  • CONTRABAND ENFORCEMENT - MEDIC - Similar to the Scientist Specialty, earn points by healing yourself and others, crafting medicine, etc. Obtain contraband legally, other perks.

The temp conditions are already in the roller (thanks Sian!), so over the course of this month, we can monitor them to see if the uncommon ones are coming up too frequently. They might be tweaked a bit before launch if they're too punishing - this is intended to be more complex gameplay, not something irritating.

Some behind the scenes: Bandage was originally going to be apparel + aloe/cactus, but that wouldn't really be user-friendly, regardless of the logic behind it.

Kitchen Stats

Several Kitchen recipes' stats were far too low for the ingredients they required, and have been updated. Here's a full list:

  • Brownie: Now +40 Spd/+10 Def (Previously +30 Spd)
  • Chocolate Chip Cookie: Now +30 Spd/20 Def (Previously +30 Spd)
  • Chocolate Croissant: Now +30 Spc/+20 Spd/+10 Def (Previously +20 Spc/+10 Def/+10 Spd)
  • Guacamole: Now +20 Def/+20 Spc/+20 Spd (Previously +20 Spc/+20 Spd)
  • Lasagne: Now +40 Def/+20 Spc/+10 Atk (Previously +30 Def/+10 Spc)
  • Mint Chip Cookie: Now +30 Spd /+20 Spc (Previously +20 Spd/+10 Spc)
  • Meat Cake: Now +30 Atk /+20 Def /+10 Spc (Previously +10Atk/+10Spc/+10Def)
  • Sweet Apple-Berry Coffee Cake: Now +30 Def/+30 Spd (Previously +20 Def/+20 Spd)
  • Tortilla Chips with Guacamole: Now +40 Def/+30 Spd/+20 Spc (Previously +30 Spd/+20 Def/+20 Spc)

The general idea here was that a recipe with 5+ unique ingredients shouldn't be giving below 40 total stats. I don't know how to logically refund past stats granted, so everyone will be seeing these updated items in their inventory very soon (but you're going to have to give me just a bit on that, because I'm going to be giving them out to both Lorekeeper and 2.0 inventories).

Misc. Updates

Barters changed over yesterday! Fang is back, and Corona is being the middleman for some alchemy again. As for the Faction Tier 1 barters, all of them have now shown up - there are 6 of them in total for each faction and this is the 2nd instance of cycling barters out. I'll be cycling the Tier 1 prompts out somewhat at random from now on. <:

I was trying to make a Nsk Net hub for genetics since the Traits list is in progress, but I managed to break the code I use for spoilers (and I was using it to shorten lists of traits). Hopefully I'll have that available soon??

Anyways, I'll go get on sending the food items out! Have fun, don't forget to read over the temp conditions page when you have time!

Hello! Today we have news mostly regarding B-NOM MYOs and Rixixi barters! Going with last update's rule of doing the faster thing first, here's your Rixixi news:

Rixixi Announcements:

Barters:

Barters (Art, Item, and Faction Tier 1) have cycled! They'll cycle out again in 2 weeks (2 AM Eastern on August 30th)!

Of note is Myrk's Seasonal Sale! This will usually show up for two weeks at the beginning of each season, but as it didn't show up at the beginning of summer (as Eclipse had made it so that Barters temporarily didn't exist over on dA at the time), it's going to be around for the rest of the summer and the first barter cycle of Fall!

B-NOMALY Announcements:

MYOS:

B-NOMALY MYOs and Customs are now hosted on Lorekeeper! The design approval phase is still done via Seraph's Styling Station on deviantArt, but it's easier to hold the MYOs over here. If you have an account here and any MYOs/customs, you should have your MYOs/customs attached to your account now (if not, please put in a claim or inventory transfer prompt saying so!) - future members signing up who have an existing B-NOM inventory will have their MYOs taken care of in inventory transfer.

MYO purchases are now handled through a prompt that's linked in the B-NOMALY Labs' Shop! Prices have been slightly reworked - most things Mutant and B-Class are cheaper now. A-NOMALY prices pretty much stayed the same. Token purchases are the main way to get MYOs, so I wanted to make them a bit easier to get!

Prompts:

A small update - Archived B-NOMALY Prompts are now referred to as the Prompt Library, so that at a quick glance it doesn't look like they're inactive.

Lorekeeper Misc.:

It should be visually clearer when you've selected something in add-ons! Hopefully this will help with accidentally leaving things blank due to lag and other internet-based misfortune.

Thank you have fun I am going to think of all the ways I can bun more
