Site Update
Welcome to the month of September!
Take a seasonal stroll with one of our new GP Shop pets!
And enjoy the great outdoors with a BP Shop pet companion!
If you colored one of these awesome pets, please contact Kyu (#1010) for your payment!
Make sure to include your PayPal address if you are opting for the USD option.
We will also be collecting pet PSDs directly from the thread, so you no longer have to send them in. However, please make sure you keep the links active for two weeks (at least until mid-September) so we have time to snag 'em for science!
The Essence of September 2014 is a cute little honey pot in honor of honey month!
Using this potion on your active pet will randomly change it into one of the colorations above. Try a drop and see what you get!
The premium monthly item is Phoenix Tree Roots, which can be applied to an egg, resulting in a random AD pet hatch!
We are on our sixth Lunaris in the celtic tree zodiac series!
Remember, the Hazel Lunaris is currently reigning over the skies through September 1st (today!), then a new birthday feline will take over!
Don't forget to check out the birthday link to claim your gift from Aywas on your big day! Need to change your birthday? Click here!

A monthly update from behind the scenes!
We are heading into a very busy season that all of our programmers, artists, and staff are preparing for, but I do want to make a few specific announcements. :3
- Scav judging is still underway! I'm not privy to the monster's progress, but I'm sure there will be a big announcement when the results are in.
- Azi requested that Fauna Day be pushed back a bit, so while I'll take care of the thread submissions and payouts soon, the actual event is rescheduled for November. I'll give you more specifics on that when I'm doing payouts and make an announcement.
- We still have some new user event surprises coming for you this month!
- Be sure to check out the news post below on Trillalings. They're staying with us a little longer than originally scheduled, but we're working on an alternate lineart, and you'll be able to vote in the raw concept contest this month.
- Coming off the heels of the Wild Teo event, our Flaming Apples are taking a break this year. However, we still have some apple-themed goodies planned for you this month, so keep an eye out!
- Speaking of Teos, we know the Teo Ticket still has to be changed over into an alcoholic drink, and are waiting on a functionality fix to release it. I appreciate you guys hanging in there and will let you know as soon as it's ready. The good news, though, that I'm really excited about, is that our alcohol system has been fixed (thanks to Tiff) and we're in the process of sprucing up our entire stock of alcoholic drinks! I will be making a separate announcement all about alcohol this month.
- October is a very big month for Aywas, as it marks the site's birthday and is home to our annual spooky celebrations. Per tradition, we will be opening up some pet submission threads in the coming days to help prepare for the festivities. :3
Here's to September!
(Slash will have our other monthly updates coming up. n_n)

Perhaps there will be even something better than the Flaming Apples? I hope so because the majority of the users was not able to get a Teo, I think. I have a gorgeous one now yet only due to a generous gift of Steahl *hugs*.
With the apples, all users could have gifts.

About the flaming apples:Really needed the blue crumbs and chance at silver crumbs so not sure I'm too excited about this mysterious stuff and to be honest not trusting anything is going to happen. Still, there's October. <3

Why Phoenix Tree Roots for the premium item?? That's not even worth being premium for.... *sigh* seriously thinking of not renewing it this yr....
Flaming apples not returning is another let down....too many planned/promised events just not happening this yr.

Well I'm really excited and REALLY disappointed ;^~^ Honestly I was really looking forward to flaming apples this year since last year I was new to it all. But my birthday's in a few days and it's gonna be busy this month with lots of fun things and then it's October and Halloween things and we already have plans for November, then there's December with Christmas so all in all I'm just sooooooo excited for everything!! :D

well that kinda seems unfair :c not everyone was able to participate in the teo event since many users didn't find any eggs. with the apple event there was luck, but also everybody could get a flaming apple. pretty disappointed that one of the few laid back events was cancelled, wish it had been that instead of the teos.
