Introducing...
... the Dosk and the Condyl!
Click the images above to download the respective PSDs.
You will recognize the Dosk from the Raw - Visual contest, and hopefully the Condyl looks like what you imagined from the Raw - Descriptive contest! (We also worked with the Condyl's concept creator in order to get the pet juuust right.)
As I mentioned previously, since many of the contest races were so close, I'll be reaching out to some other sketch/concept creators to work on future Raw pets. You guys are full of great ideas, and we definitely want to use them! <3
I also mentioned we'd create an alt Trillaling, and am happy to announce that we have this ready for you as well!
You'll notice that this Trill has some different features from the original as an answer to some of the feedback we got, but keeps a lot of the pet's original characteristics. The silver crystals are on their own layer for easier editing/removal and transparency needs. Hopefully you enjoy having this new alternate base to work with as an option. :3
Raw Schedule
We're a bit off track on our original Raw schedule due to the art delays, so here's the plan!
Raw Crystals will create the Dosk, Condyl, and Trill through mid-March to give you a full 2 months+ to play with the lines and create customs.
In mid-March, we will introduce a pair of Raws that will be creatable for two months as usual, and then get back on our one pet per cycle track.
Thanks for your patience through all of our adjustments!
Normally we offer Antiquity Staves once a year, but have made them available for a week as a bonus to go along with our Raw announcement. You can purchase the staves from the GP Shop now through January 4th at 11:59 p.m.!
Hope you enjoy everything!

Xaoc Contests!
Contests
No one knows what's under a Xaoc's hood. They never show their true form to anyone unless they trust them completely, and very few Xaocs have ever made that bond.
Little is known about Xaocs, and there are very few in existence.
However, there seems to be a little bit of extra magic in the air tonight, because we'll be adding a few more of these mysterious creatures to the population!
A few years ago, we hosted a contest called For the Love of Xaocs, and ran into a few issues when trying to pull winners and create their prizes. So, I am excited to announce that the stars have finally aligned this evening! Due to the lengthy wait, we increased the prize pool from a single Xaoc winner to five.
Without any further ado, congratulations to the following winners (in no particular order):
Qtaa (#30198)
x 
Offspring Prize:
Kwillow (#28509)
x 
Offspring Prize:
sin + kite (#2826)
x 
Offspring Prize:
Ganondorf (#4152)
x 
Offspring Prize:
Three Pastries (#2004)
x 
Offspring Prize:
Congratulations to all of our winners!
I will be contacting you all individually in order to deliver your Xaoc with your desired specifications (e.g., gender).
But that's not all!
We'd also like to give YOU the opportunity to win your very own Xaoc this holiday season.
These three Xaocs are looking for forever homes!
The Beloved Plush Xaoc, Winter Xaoc, or Sweater Xaoc could be yours if you just wish for it. *wink*
Click here to enter the contest!
We'll be pulling winners on December 31st, so be sure to enter by the 30th at 11:59 p.m.
Best of luck!
(And don't forget to check out the HA poll below.)

Merry Christmas!
Site Update
Merry Christmas!
I hope everyone got what they wanted, and the winners of the happy families contest had a special holiday this year due to winning the contest :)
Why don't you share in this news post the coolest thing you got this year? It doesn't matter it was on Aywas or real life, just tell us your favorite present! We want to hear the coolest thing you got.
The Holiday Teo Eggs will become available exactly at midnight in the bonus tiers. A new bonus item has been added to the tiers to bridge the gap between the 50-Tier and the upcoming 100-Tier.
Link to the Teo Pot
In addition, GP purchases made from midnight on the 26th - 31st will get a free Delicious Eggnog for every $10 spent. So you gotta decide if you want to get your bonus ready for the Teos before midnight, or wait until the Eggnog bonus activates at midnight also and get your Teo then!
Your choice!

Bears, oh my!
Items
It's getting a little cold here in the Northern Hemisphere, so Cosmos (#25837) thought that people might enjoy bundling up in this adorable bear hoodie when celebrating the holiday season!
It will be in Trash for Treasure until 11:59pm December 31st.
