Salon Update!
Posted 2 years ago :: Last edited 2 years ago by LuneHey everyone! We're coming to you today with a new update that was a long time coming. The Salon guidelines, examples, and items have all been reworked to hopefully allow more freedom in edits and more clarity on what each item does. New items with effects that have been asked about and suggested in the past have also been added for more specialized editing! Design edit submissions have now been open again and all new submissions will be held to the new guidelines.You can see the new updated Salon here!
Shop Update
We've made several items now available for purchase. Please keep in mind prices are not set and may be adjusted in the future for balancing purposes.
The following items have been added to Galstrod's Goods:
The follow items have been added to Specialty Supply:
Other updates
✦ Website colors have been adjusted somewhat, updates the website's appearance are still ongoing!
✦ The "home" button on the navigation bar has been moved to the right side
✦ The sidebar options have been adjusted to cut off less on the pages of users with longer names✦ Due to real life circumstances the fall and winter events will likely be delayed and currently we have no ETA on when they will be released. However, we do still want to put something together if we're able to. Thank you for the support everyone!
✦ In the meantime... We'll be holding a community contest to decide a new set of community characters sometime very soon!

Trait updates!
Posted 2 years ago :: Last edited 2 years ago by LuneGeneral Update
Many areas of the site are currently having their text and information updated to reflect how we currently handle traits and submissions. Certain information may be out of date since it was pasted over from the previous website and Deviantart and to reflect this we are adding a disclaimer into the descriptions of some traits and items! As always if you have any questions feel free to contact us. We apologize for any confusion or inconvenience outdated information may have caused!
The event deadline has also been pushed back to September 7th due to the part 3 release delay. Be sure to get your entries in before then! All parts of the event will we closing that day. If you missed the part 3 update be sure to check out the Event Hub to read the new story part and check out the prompts!
Trait changes
Several traits have been changed earlier this year and after the website move. This goes over all changes so that everyone can be aware!
We are still in the process of getting every trait up to date with new visual references if needed. Thank you for the patience as the species are worked on!
Overall
"Size" was added to the description of most traits. This indicates how large a trait is OR how much area it can cover on a design. For many traits the size was implied or very rough before, so all of these can be considered a new addition.
- Some traits have been merged into a single trait if they were fairly similar in appearance.
What are the symbols next to some traits?
Symbols do not mean a trait has been changed, it is simply a visual addition to distiguish trait types easier due to how crowded trait listings can be.
No emoji = Regular trait. These are basic things like tails, horns, crests, ect. Required traits usually.
➕ (Plus) = Denotes a stackable trait that can be added for free if the requirements are met. An example would be crest effects. If you have a rare crest, you can add a rare effect for free.
⚡ (Bolt) = Denotes an addon trait. An example would be star markings or horn carvings. These traits will all be available through items eventually!
💫(Swirl Stars) = Crest-specific. Denotes x2, x3, or x4 crest.General Condensing
- The following have been condensed into 1 trait corresponding to rarity rather than each style being its own trait. They all generally work the same, this just saves on space and makes it easier to look through trait lists.
- Browbird horns
- Browbird tails
- Patch Placements
- The following have been condensed purely for organization, but still keep their separate traits and cannot be freely changed between, just like before. Please note the specific trait in the little "note" section when adding it to a design.
- Satyr masks
- Browbird Crest Effects
- Browbird Crests
- The following traits have been merged due to similarities but ultimately work the same as the sum of their parts.
- King Feathers (Browbird) || King Feathers + Saxony Feathers
- Short Head Feathers (Browbird) || Short Face Feathers + Multifeather + Moth Feathers + Short Sleek Feathers
- Mismatched Eyes || Heterochromia + Mismatched
- Flashy Patches (Satyr) || Patterned Patches + Multicolor Patches
- Odd Patches (Satyr ) || Different Stripes + Elaborate
- Briarthorn (Satyr) || Patch Spikes + Sharp Branches + Patch Thorns
- Insect Tail (Halv Browbird) || Venom Tail + Insect Tail
- Missing Sense || Eyeless + Mouthless (Pre website)
- Curse of Arachnid (Feyblood Satyr) || Body Eyes + Multiple Limbs + Body Mouths
- Elemental Fey (Feyblood Satyr) || Most elemental satyr traits
- Wisps (Mythic) || Wisps + Hanging Lights (pre website)
- Shattered (Revenant browbird) || Gravity Horns + Shattered Horns + Shattered Body
- Royal Horns (Ancient browbird)) || All ancient horns into 1 category!
- Feyblood satyrs are not divided on type anymore, it's all a single feyblood type-- there's just LORE behind fairy/hollow/hybrids. So as long as you're a feyblood you can pick any trait from the list. (Right before the website)
Changes and moves
- The following have been changed in some way
- All flora for satyrs is based on the trait itself rather than species of flora. You are allowed to have multiple flower with only one use of the flower flora trait. (Pre-website)
- Satyr patches were tweaked placement-wise at some point before the website move. Also just as a note, placement rarity stacks!
- Asymmetrical patches on satyrs is a stackable trait and is free on uncommon+ patch rarity (Pre-website)
- Satyr tails and horns have been tweaked. Will likely be further tweaked in the future.
- Aspect Mastery traits have been tweaked into their proper 3 branches that better reflect their appearance and lore. Spirit, Being, Cycle. These will likely be further edited.
- The following traits have been moved
- Shattered/Floating traits have been appropriately moved to revenants. They were mistakenly given to halvs previously.
Newish Additions
Many of these traits were implied or used in the past without ever having proper official listings, therefore many didn't know if they were available or not.
- Existed before the website but weren't properly added until website
- Satyrs can now have the scale trait.
- Supermassive crests are now included in the mythic effects
- Astrean Traits are still being worked on
- Grove Traits were added and are more finalized now, but still may change before official release
- Legendary traits were added to official trait listings with new additions. These have always existed but now we'll be able to use them a couple times a year rather than being corrin-only.
- Luck, Light, and Lightning are now included on the aspect list
- Winter, Autumn, and Summer bonus now display as traits
- Entirely New(?) But are still a WIP!
- Carapace (Halv Browbird)
- Beastly Claws (Halv Browbird)
- Aspect Weapon (Ancient Browbird)
- New reference material
Future Trait Plans
These are not currently implemented but are planned.
- Horns, Tails, and other required base trait options for browbirds will be further condensed and will have their rules shifted fully into being based around size/length/branch count (for horns) rather that leaning on specific named styles outside of a few exceptions. Most of the traits themselves will remain the same overall, just clearer rules.
- Body wings for hiros browbirds (head wings, wrist wings, hip wings, ect) will be condensed into 1 addon trait rather than a separate trait listing for each placement.
- Reworking of hiros feather tails and tail feathers to fit in line with how tail wings work.
- Painted satyr mask references and a substantial update to the options available, their rarity, and what they allow.
- Painted satyr patch placements will be given references and have their rules updated!
- Painted satyr tail references are on the horizon...
- Astreans are having their traits reworked to be more in line with how other traits work!
- Kitbull traits are being added!

Fortune of Harara PART 2
Posted 2 years ago :: Last edited 2 years ago by LuneEvent Update
The next part of the event is here! The story continues...
Read Part 1.5
Part 2 of the event brings three new prompts that you can complete in any order. You must complete part 1 before you are able to submit entries for part 2!
Soaring across the city skies upon great Sol Roc in a relay that tests speed, skill, and endurance.
The chance to prove one’s mettle in bloody battles in the massive outdoor coliseum.
Showing off both the beauty and strength of your magical abilities when battling another mage.Note: You are able to complete all 3 of these options!
Sol Roc Relay Test of Strength Aspect Creations
An optional extra challenge for those who want to push themselves. Users who are able to earn 90 or more stargold combined from your part 2 prompt submissions will be considered top participants and will be able to claim a Gilded Egg, which can be hatched into a new baby mount companion, the sol roc chick.
When you meet the requirements please send in a claim.
Write "Sol Roc Challenge" in the URL space and include a link to your part 2 prompt submissions that add up to the 90 total in the comments section.
You can find the links to your submissions HERE when clicking the "details" button on the right side.
Everyone worked together and smashed through the event point tiers, so a new bonus was added if an even higher number of points can be reached! If we can get to 3000p there will be 5 Gilded Eggs raffled off to lucky participants so more users will have a chance to hatch their own sol roc chick!
A new side quest has been added! You do not need to complete any previous prompts to do this side quest.
✦ The shimmering egg shop price has been reduced
✦ Companions and mounts can now have accessories that cover up to 30% of the design for companions, and up to 40% for full grown mounts.
✦ Full grown mount payout when included in an entry has been increased from 2 stargold to 3 stargold.
✦ A new crafting recipe has been added, this new item allows you to instantly grow up a mount. There is a way planned for the future to evolve a mount through certain prompts, but until then this will be the way to do it!

Summer Event + Advent
Posted 2 years ago :: Last edited 2 years ago by LuneEvent Info
The gates of Harara are open to all in preparation for the upcoming competitions being held within the city. The Pharaoh has broadcast an invitation to even the most distant star systems requesting that those gifted in magic, combat, and riding to face off against other skilled individuals. He has made mentions of a grand prize, an artifact that holds a mysterious power which will be unveiled at the opening ceremony to be held in a few days! Before that though, why not take some time to explore the capital city and see its many sights-- or perhaps the time would be better spent training for what's to come...
Explore a brand new location, try the food, join a faction, and meet new characters in this year's new expansion of the ongoing storyline!

Apology for Site Outage
Posted 2 years ago :: Last edited 2 years ago by LuneHello everyone! As many of you were aware, we experienced an outage starting on June 6th to June 8th. Because of this had to do a partial rollback to June 3rd which caused many images to break and for some text to revert back to its default or to be deleted completely. We are currently working on getting all of images and any lost information back onto the website so please be patient with us as we do so. We are aware of many of the affected areas and are in the process of fixing them!
Everything you have done after June 3rd should be unaffected, so any earnings, purchases, trades, transfers, submissions, and edits should have been left untouched. However, if you do notice anything is out of place or missing please contact us so we may have a look at it.
Apology Gift
We also want to apologize for any inconvenience due to the website being down. We understand that the Wisher's Well was unavailable before and after its weekly reset and because of this some users missed out on their weekly Wisher's Well submission. To make up for this we are offering a temporary gift at Free Gifts of 3 Stargold and 1 Celestial Shard to every user!To claim the apology gift please go to Free Gifts. This apology gift will be leaving on Tuesday June the 9th at 11:59 PM.If you are having trouble claiming the free Apology Gift:
Please send in a claim!You will be granted the item after it leaves the Free Gifts claim so it may take a few days! You must do so before the gift is no longer available on June 9th 11:59 PM EDT Any claims sent with a send date after that time will not have the Apology Gift granted to you! Unfortunately there is still an issue with some users being unable to purchase certain items. We are still working on this error so please be patient while we fix it.Url: A link to screenshot proof of you experiencing the error
Comments: Please state that you experienced the error
Rewards: Please put the apology gift as the rewards

★ Moving Your Inventory
You can move over your inventory, badges, and currency from your tracker by going HERE!

★ Welcome Gift!
All users who join the website at any time can claim a free Welcome Gift one time from Special Gifts.
We will also give out free gifts occasionally for events so keep an eye out!
★ Gold Members
For users playing during the testing phase, that means you'll automatically be given the gold member rank which gives you a special golden username color! This doesn't do anything, but it's a different color to the standard member names, and it allows you to appear near the top of the user list!
The gold rank is permanent, so you'll have it forever.
Members with the gold rank were given it for a limited time patreon offer, OR if they massively helped out the site during it's development.
Gold members will be given a Golden Gift as thanks for the support. This is a limited time gift!
★ Thank You Gift
Users who have already earned ANY badges from Celestial Seas while it was solely on Deviantart (meaning it is on your DA tracker from before the website's creation) can claim a Thank You Gift to show our appreciation for your participation in our ARPG events in the past. You must do so when submitting your inventory claim.

Look here for help with any issues you may be encountering!
We also have a help channel in our discord dedicated to the website if you have questions and need a quick answer. You can also note us.
★ Upcoming Events
Summer is on the horizon... Tons of new items, characters, raffles, and story content is on the way!
★ Upcoming Quests
We have two repeatable quests that will be launched soon that bring brand new items and character development oppourtunities to the game.
★ Celestial Shards
Celestial shards can now be used as currency to buy extremely hard to obtain items at Galstrod's Goods.
Currently the stock is very light, and prices may be adjusted in the future. We plan to add highly requested items (like the hiros transformation item), all event exclusive items that can't be bought/obtained normally (like the anniversary traits), and more!
Keep in mind, you will need a LOT of shards and these items are intended to be very difficult to get and their prices are likely to go up. More ways to get shards are being added as time goes on, and all non-exclusive items will eventually be obtainable through permanent quests (The hiros item included!). This shop just allows you to get them a little early if you save up enough.
★ Brand New Feature
Two new features will be added in soon!
Perks
These will add permanent bonuses to a character that allow them tiny buffs when used in certain prompts. These already existed in the form of the summer, winter, and autumn bonus but we plan to add in ways to apply these to characters the same way you would apply a trait.Crafting
We will be adding in a simple crafting system. Crafting is not built in crafting will be done manually when first released.
★ [IMPORTANT] MYO slot first time discount
- We want to continue having our MYO slot first time purchase discount in the shop. However, due to the move to the site we will have to reset that purchase amount for everyone, and each person can now still buy a MYO slot of each species for half off. While it may seem unfair that a very small number of users can buy a second slot at half the stargold price, we felt keeping this offer open to the majority of users was more important.
★ [IMPORTANT] Quest Changes
- Celestial Shards -- From now on, the first time anyone completes a quest prompt for a character, they will be given a Celestial Shard!
- Completing quests with a character -- Characters will now have their quest completions noted in their descriptions on the website. When trading, the character keeps their completions. This will mean that they cannot do the quest again once traded.
- Quest Perks -- In the future, completing quests will grant certain perks that grant more stargold, chances at special items, and more!
★ [IMPORTANT] Design Salon Changes
- Appearance Change: Changes such as changing colors, swapping traits, or changing to a different trait now cost x1 Appearance Change to make and must be done through the website. When using this item, you can make as many changes that it allows at one time to a single character.
- A new item will be added soon that allows you to completely revert a character to their original state, remove all their traits, and remove all their quest progress. This will reverse any reincarnations, browlet grow-ups, items, and more so you may have a completely fresh slate design.
★ [IMPORTANT] Item Changes
- Items like the Lucky Coin, Fortune Lightglass, and Pocket Bloodseeker now have different uses when applied to prompt entries.
- The 50% Off Coupon now works differently as well.
- Reselling items is temporarily disabled as we impliment a way to automate it. Will be updated soon!
So... What does all this mean for the group on Deviantart?
This website is bringing a lot of changes, so we want to go over what'll be different going forward. We hope everyone will be understanding of why we made these changes, and we want to do everything we can to make it as easy jump as possible. Here is how everything will work from now on, and if you have any questions for us you can ask in our discord!
★ Masterlist
- The masterlist will now be maintained on this website AND Deviantart. This means that users are NOT required to make an account if they wish to own or transfer a character.
- To own a character on this website you will have to have a LINKED ACCOUNT once, linked you will automatically be granted your characters.
- If you transfer a character on this website, please also comment on their masterlist entry on DA so that everything can stay up to date. This is extremely important!
★ Trackers
- All player inventories can be transferred over. Please go to claims to find out how!
- Trackers will no longer be usable on DA very soon! But that's okay, the site is much more streamlined when it comes to purchasing items and trading items with other users.

- Event updates will still be posted to the group so users can know when a new event is live!
- We will still be maintaining event folders for those who publicly post their event entries to DA and wish to submit them to be in the group.
- Submitting entries publicly is now optional and all that is required is a link to your entry. This means you can post it on any website! It's recommended that you use a reliable places and do not delete your images. We still hope you'll consider submitting entries to the DA group publicly so other members can see what you create!

- We will still be maintaining the quest folder for those who publicly post their event entries to DA and want to add them to the group

★ Wisher's Well
- The Wisher's Well on DA will no longer accept entries and the activity will be moved over to the website
- Instead of waiting 7 days between your entries, the Wisher's Well now operates off of a weekly reset allowing for more efficiency and ease of use.
- All other rules and payouts remain the same for the Wisher's Well.
★ Stelle Inn
- The Stelle Inn on DA will no longer accept entries and the activity will be moved over to the website
- The way the activity is handled is being reworked and will be unavailable for a little while. We plan to add much more to it!
★ Shopping District
- The DA shop will be permanently closed and you will no longer be able to buy items from it.
- The shop is now hosted solely on the website, and all purchases are automated with no wait times to have your purchased approved.
- The shops are now divided up into four sections
- Market Street is where you go for all permanently available traits, clothing, kitbull items, and trinkets purchased with stargold.
- Galstrod's Goods is the new venue for Celestial Shard purchases. Here you can find the rarest items in the game, but the shopkeeper asks a hefty price.
- Event Merchant will offer seasonal and event items when available.
- Specialty Supplies is the place for specialty items like MYO slots and items to make changes to a design.
★ "The Grand Marketplace" item exchange
- Previously, users could exchange items or currency with another user by commenting and waiting for moderator approval. We will be shutting down that journal permanently moving forward.
- Treads and item transfers are handled automatically by the website, so you won't have to wait for approvals on item trades. You can transfer an item one way via selecting it in your inventory, or you can create a two way trade request.
★ Item Advertisements
- We will be keeping the item advertisement post open! So if you want to advertise your items, find items you're seeking, or organize item trades, you can do so here.
★ Discord Rewards
- Any discord rewards you earn after creating your account can be obtained by submitting a claim with an image link to your approved discord reward. They can only be redeemed this way going forward.
