Happy Leap Day! We have some things completely unrelated to leap day going on, coincidentally:

Multispecies news:

The Semi and MYO sale for Kitty has been extended a month due to additional vet costs. If you were missing anything, you've got more time to get it now!

Aexent can be part B-NOMALY now - you can declare B-NOMALY traits when posting your Aex to the upload prompt. Rixixi have... something... planned for the future, and haven't been included yet as a result.

That's it for now! See you soon!

Rixixi News

Two new items have been released, for Valentines' Day:

• Collar
• Shock Collar

"anar isn't this blatant kink content" yes. happy holidays

The Authorities have been updated as an example of how a shock collar works in an Ixi's description.

Also, aroaces, I see you, I know I'm being very kinky and romo this valentines' season. I've enabled TREAT FOR TRICK out of season because the real point of the holiday is discount candy, you feel me. I'm honestly mostly in it myself for pink content and candy. I just wanted to do this for a laugh V:

Okay I'm done, enjoy

Check out the Flash Sale if you have time and funds to spare!

Later!

A strange cold wind blew over the desert, preceding a shadow gliding over the dunes. Slow wingbeats thumped down through the sky as Chione made her way across the northern hemisphere of Sxriix, following in Enneriix's footsteps to bring winter - and what she had heard of winter was cold and white. Frosted crystals sprinkled down from the Dwarf Primal's wings, melting in midair before they reached the sand, but still baffling the creatures below and the air itself. Chione smiled and darted towards the nearby town. Surely they would be happy to see snow. Maybe some of them had never seen it before.

She stopped in midair against her will, something grasping at the nape of her neck. Wings fluttering like a hummingbird, arms going every which way, Chione twisted and wriggled until she could finally see... Enneriix itself, looking at her with a sigh plastered across its face. A deep voice rang out from the Ixi.

"Stop. Freezing. The desert."

Winter Changelog

• This Winter's new starter is Chione, the uh, adorable ecological disaster... She has two new genes:
• New gene: Glitz, a gene that makes glitter appear on the Ixi! We got permission from Ketucari to clone the Luster gene because I needed it for Ketixi and of course regular Ixi.
• New gene: Stamped, for any simple shapes that Squared and Hexagon don't cover. (Suggested by @Kitsu and also pawstepsinthesnow )
• There's a hub on dA as usual!
• The seasonal Raid has rolled over, and... something new is happening. The Quarantine Ring is leading a raid on all of the Couloir gigafauna, to take them down before they can strike. All previous raid bosses are available this raid season, and the raid points count starts at 10 - fogshards are immediately available. Happy Holidays!

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

Hey, we've got some fairly important Rixixi news (stuff you should really be aware of), and some regular news!

Rixixi News

Y'all may have noticed that design approval and breedings slowed, and breedings were briefly marked closed to Rixixi. I've unmarked them as closed, and I'm absolutely going to get to them before anything here happens, but they're going to close again in January, and here's what's up.

Due to dA making sta.sh function far worse, genos are all going to be converted into MYOs, and design approvals are going to be run through lorekeeper at that point. This is going to happen sometime in January - I'm not sure on the exact date yet, we have to get a couple of functions worked into MYOs first because a couple of things are missing but it's only a couple. Breedings are involved in this because they generate more genos and I don't really know what to do about that, I'm fine with rolling the current ones but I don't want more to be made while I'm converting from geno to MYO, y'know?

This will probably take a while because there are a lot of genos. This is fine, I like tedious things, but it just might put a holdup on new designs. Please be aware of that! It'll also probably be kind of weird getting used to the lorekeeper design approval method if you haven't used it already. If you've put a B-NOM in, it's the same thing.

Design approval and breedings were slowed/temporarily closed because this was originally going to happen in November maybe (didn't reach an official decision in admin chat but it was my original plan), but didn't happen that way, and December is entirely too busy for me to work this in, so it's moved over to January and I'm giving y'all a heads up in case you want to get any designs in before then. (:

After searching the Desolated World for its inhabitants, its true name was discovered - the Couloir - as well as the Eye's true identity. With this fading into the past as we speak, what's going to happen next?

• The Couloir is now an explorable world! Check the Canon Worlds page for more information. If you have any leftover ideas or art that you didn't get to use for Desolated, please feel free to use them as Couloir explorations! They work basically the same, except you get less lore back now. You also no longer have to depict your Ixi in PPE, but if you do this, it's guaranteed that you'll get 2 levels of radiation poisoning. (There is an item to override this)
• There is now a hazard warning for both the Couloir and the Leyline on the Canon Worlds page due to their ability to cause temp conditions by existing.
• New items (these were all obtainable in Desolated) - Black Fruit, Black Root, Sand-Dusted Coin, Mymber & Couler Dolls, Discarded PPE, Meat Fruit, Anti-Rad Patch, Couler, Mismi
• New crafting recipe: Black Wood Armor
• New kitchen recipe: Black Forest Black Forest Cake
• The chasm-connected bestiary now lists Coulers, Couloir Gigafauna/Megafauna, and Ketixi (oops i forgot,)
• The companions page has been updated to list all Couloir Gigafauna/Megafauna together.
• Pages with fixed images: Crafting, Kitchen, Bestiary, Companions, Canon Worlds, all Common genes. (I know I said the genes were first but uh, I was there changing stuff anyways? V: genes are next.)

I'm off to roll the last of the Desolated rolls! I hope you enjoyed the lore!

I'll be making a lore page soon so people can actually... backread lore. It's coming soon, promise <:

"I'm surprised you celebrate the human way," Uuner creaked down at the dwarf primal.

"Nonsense," Ekin spoke with one hand on their chin, pondering. "Humans, of course not. Just a moment, though."

The dwarf primal pressed both front paws to the sides of a massive pumpkin, the color of their fur almost matching the rind of the gourd. As their paws began glowing, a vine grew out from where it once was lopped off at the stem. The vine wrapped itself around the pumpkin, entwining itself in spirals around the globular fruit. Finally, the vine neatly tucked itself away underneath the pumpkin, and the glow faded away. Taking a deep breath as they released their paws, Ekin pulled a large knife out from under the table.

"I celebrate my way," The dwarf primal drawled with a smile, and sunk the knife into the pumpkin.

Fall Changelog

• This Fall's new starter is Ekin, the pumpkin carver and pumpkin farmer! They have three new genes for us!
• New gene: Caldera, we actually got fire skypunch I was kidding last time
• New gene: Raptor, based on the barring on hawk chests! (Suggested by Fey )
• New gene: Vest, an any-color marking locked to the upper torso! (Suggested by pokeapache )
• There's a hub on dA as usual!
• The seasonal Raid has rolled over, and another strange creature from the Couloir has appeared - the Warren. Rabbits are in. Content warning for Swarming/Amalgamation/Body Horror.
  also congrats to jynxyz who got 80 points last raid. hello???
• The Dwarf Primal Translucent Pack is now available!

If you see any broken images, please know that we're working on it. deviantArt changed a ton of image tokens and it killed most of our guide pages. The priority is currently gene guides and then nsk net guides.

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