Site Update
Good evening! This is your standard warning to not make any purchases from the Seasonal Shop until I give you the green light. Items and pets may change price and/or function, and we will not issue any refunds for premature purchases.
(The wearable items currently in the shop are not leaving at this time -- so no need to rush and buy those. :3)
Thank you!

Art Gallery
Contests
The art gallery has been judged!
The theme was Easter* and we received a basket full ofcreative, seasonal entries!
Here are our featured winners:
They won:
Congratulations!
The current theme is Bugs/Glitches!
We'd like to see your artistic rendering of some of Aywas' bugs/glitches (old/resolved or current is fine), particularly in a comical way, but anything is fine as long as it's clearly Aywas-related. :3
Official Aywas stock is not permitted for this theme.
Good luck!
Easter celebrations with my family ran a bit later than expected today, so you can look forward to an explosion of pet and item goodies tomorrow!
Oh, and don't forget to get any last-minute entries into our Weekend Coloring Contest!

Weekend Dye Fest!
Site Update
Happy Saturday!
We have opened a Weekend Coloring Contest for those of you looking to submit holiday/seasonal pets!
Deadline: Sunday, April 20th at 11:59 p.m.
(Psst. If you are busy this weekend but have a great idea for a coloration, remember that Pet Coloration Submissions are always open. :3)
Looking to give your HA a fresh splash of color? In honor of the seasonal festivities this weekend, we have added four new wearable items to the Seasonal Shop. You will find Painted Eggs, a Floral Crown and matching Floral Garland, and Dye Splatter. Check them out via Preview Wardrobe!
We are also dying Ay and Ara!
You can now find a variety of 7 dyes in Adventure (everywhere except the Enchanted Forest and the Arctic), which will be used in the Easter Painter. You get a bit of a head start on collecting. *wink*
The Seasonal Shop items and dyes will be available through the 27th at 11:59 p.m.--and I'm sure you can guess we'll be filling the shop up just a tad more. c: Stay tuned!
I also just want to take a moment to acknowledge the overwhelming outpouring of positivity and support we have seen from the community. The kindness you show each other is more powerful than you know, and I feel very grateful and proud to witness it. <3

Rude Messages in Eggs
Site Update
Lately we have been getting reports of rude messages in eggs. We have absolutely zero tolerance for any player putting in messages like "kill yourself" or anything disgusting like that. It will be met with an immediate, irreversible permanent ban.
We are not like other sites that tolerate such behavior. We do track eggs, and if you come across something that makes you uncomfortable, remember that we're here for you. Send a message to a moderator if you come across a rude message and we'll take care of it.

Get those pet slots!
Site Update
Quick Easter Egg Field tip!
Make sure that you have enough open pet slots in your lair to give any new pets the room they need to move in. :3 If you don't have any available slots, the pet has nowhere to go, and typically gets stuck in database limbo.
Suspect that one of the pets you claimed from the field is stuck?
Please post here and I will help you out!

Let's go on an egg hunt!
Site Update
It looks like this Vyne lost a few eggs!
I wonder what's in them? Well, there's only one way to find out. *wink*
The cheery Easter Egg Field is now officially open and ready to be filled with pretty painted shells!
(You will find this link up under Community shortly.)
If this is your first time hippity-hopping to the fields, listen up for some bunny good tips!
To play, first you'll need to click on Deposit an Egg, which will bring up the option to either put in an item or put in a pet. Once you make your selection, you will be presented with a menu of assorted shells; choose your egg, then pick something to hide inside! Note: Each egg must also contain a minimum of 1000 BP, and your goodies will be r30 or higher. Yes, you are choosing from your own inventory/lair.
Once you deposit an egg, you are then eligible to claim one! For every egg you deposit, you can claim one as well, but there is a 10-minute timer on claiming. There is no limit to the amount of eggs you can deposit.
Admins will also be hiding some extra shiny eggs in the field~
And now for a quick disclaimer!
Even though your name is not publicly attached to the eggs, it is still attached to everything you deposit and collect in the database, so please be mindful of what you're putting into them. Please don't make me fry everyone's eggs and put on my grumpy bunny suit, it's not very flattering. ;~;
We'll have the Easter Egg Field open for the rest of the month, so you have plenty of time to enjoy it. :)
Stay tuned for developments in the Easter Painter and some festivities this weekend.
We also encourage you to chat about the field in Aywas Talk, as this is a community event. c:
Cheers!
