Welcome to Cycle 135!
First off,
Congratulations to our July OTM winners! Character of the Month for July is
Worm, Tadpole's new and naked cat. Worm is already getting into some serious hijinks, and is worth keeping an eye (or eyes) on.
Pair of the Month is
Tsvetok and
Timir, the awkward baby Valkhounds that have no idea how anything works, fight rocks, and have hatched into utter trickery.
Thread of the Month is the... NSFW? ...maybe?
Going Away Party, which is a fade-to-black of... I'm not sure what happens. Check it out for yourself. It's Valkhounds (again) trying to be romantic. We think. (We love it.)
Our Member of the Month is
Tadpole, new but beloved already! Tadpole's got a roster of three: adopted dragon
Lichen, the aforementioned kitten
Worm, and piglet
Hog who is barely two cycles old and already making shady deals with the Collector. (This can only be a good thing.)
Achievements & magicka will be awarded to all winners shortly!
Thanks for voting!
Monthly Draw

Congratulations to HazySkies on winning the Monthly Draw!
Next, some news! First, we've got a poll up in regards to Magicka Earnings. While we're currently sitting at double (as the request for it is universal among active players and unlikely to be overturned) base post/thread earnings, let us know what you think of the cost of Transcendence! Second, the active quest/events section in the Header is being updated. We actually have quite a few events/quests running at the moment, so feel free to spectate or (if they're still open) jump in to take part! For those looking for additional plotting, Snail's been kind enough to put up
this thread! for those searching for interaction in regards to their Collector quests. Got a
victim potential participant? Post there!
As a reminder, there's also a
war event for Valkhounds coming up in a few cycles--information can be found on that thread.
A number of achievements have at last been added to the
Guidebook! Have a look over, and feel free to claim any that your characters have earned in Update Me. Big thanks to all those who provided the sprite art, including Tadpole, Viv, JayTheBird, ShadowLugia, Snail, Candy!, Shafaer, Chishio, and to Bunny & Jaymie for setting up and then adding the achievements, respectively!
Finally, a big shoutout to
Jaymie, who has been rotated in as Game Master! A number of the available events & quests right now are being run by her already. Thank you Jaymie!
See you next cycle!
