Site Update
After a year of being closed up and collecting dust, we've re-oiled our robot-making machines and are ready to roll out some new pets and items hot off the belts of the Mysterious Factory! Let's turn on the video camera and see if we can get a sneak peek at what's going on in there.
Hrm, that's strange, it seems we're receiving some interference, but from what?
...INCOMING!
W-what was that?
A cold, omnipotent laughter flooded the air as a sickly purple figure manifested out of thick, curling shadows.
Four hollow-sounding hooves clinked slowly across the floor as a metallic scent imbued the air. The smell was not of fresh aluminum or singed wires, it was not the smell of a well-used factory; rather, it was the distinct, coppery aroma of blood. Famine managed to look worse than usual, ripe with bruises and twisted joints.
"Did you really think you had seen the last of me? That your futuristic festivities were safe from my prowess because they utilize inorganic matter? My power has thus far been largely untapped, and I assure you that starvation does not limit itself to literal sustenance. Let's see how you cope with your robotic power supply being cut off."
With an audible snicker and a bit of a limp, Famine was consumed by the shadows it arrived in, retreating to its dark abyss.
From the looks of things, it appears as though the Mysterious Factory has gone dark, and I don't see any pets in sight. That certainly throws a wrench in our plans, now doesn't it? :c
"Do not despair, my friends!" The gold-clad factory merchant chuckled. "If there's one thing I know, it's that anything can be fixed and rebuilt."
"It looks like these bits and bobs are all that remain from the machines and robotic pets lost in the explosion. If my calculations are correct, they seem to be strewn about around in the Enchanted Forest. Egads!"
"Your mission is simple. Take your most valiant pet to the forest and collect as many of these lost pieces as you can. When you have collected enough as a community, I should be able to have the necessary parts to get at least one of our synthesizers and conveyor belts working again."
The explosion did a lot more than just damage the factory, however.
It seems that it also shook loose some metal pieces!
You should once more be able to obtain Iron and Silver pieces through your daily gameplay (and should have already been getting Gold).
In honor of Robot Day and the return of metal pieces, we are permanently adding these three new pets to the Metalsmithing Shop!
We had hundreds of pretty potions uniformly stocked and stored inside the Mysterious Factory, but it looks like the fumes and flames got to them before we could. :C Sorry!
The first potion you see is now known as Mysterious DNA. This is a breeding add-on compatible with Radioactive Breeding Coins/Pendants only! This mysterious looking potion tells the site artist to involve a third parent in your breeding. The third parent will be a random site-pet, and your baby will be a mix of all three. Talk about messing with crazy genetics! You can pick this up in the BP Shop, where it will permanently stock.
The green potion with the bubbling eye? That's Mutagenic Ooze. This is another breeding add-on compatible with Radioactive Breeding Coins/Pendants only! This potion gives a 100% guarantee of the offspring being a mutant. You can find this in the Premium Outlet, where it will permanently stock.
Both add-ons are subject to your breeding being successful!
After all, we're using some unstable items here! Use at your own risk.
Now hop off to the Enchanted Forest and collect those lost parts for our merchant friend!

... Taxel, I'm just giving you guys time to get some of those pieces. You're not literally unlocking something, no need to cringe at working with your fellow player. - Eri
