This is such a fun concept for an adopt, I love it! xD

These rules are subject to change at any time. New or updated rules will be indicated using red text
───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
─ CS rules always apply
─ Be respectful to staff and community members at all times. Guilt-tripping and being rude or argumentative is not acceptable behavior
─ Kelso Shetland Ponies cannot be sold for any type of currency. They can be gifted for free, or traded for other KSPs
─ If you are trading/gifting a horse, both the new and old owners must post on the horse's page confirming the transfer. Additionally, the new owner should contact the archivist to inform them of the change
─ As a closed species, creating your own KSP is not permitted. Changing the coat design, color, or adding things to a KSP you own is also not allowed without the original designer's explicit permission

Everything is gorgeous 😍 but also!! I love the placement of the back legs! Dynamic!

36 second masterpiece

In order for you land to survive you need to make sure your land is will suited.
You must level up to be able to explain your lands. Though some species you must have reach level high enough for them. For example, if you are level 2 you can't adopt a wolf as you need to be level 4 to adopt them. For now its best to head to Starters and pick which species you want first to help your lands grow.

Username: Melatonins
Show name: HGH Chuggin Along
Barn name: Poprocks
Gender: Stallion
Collar color: artist's choice !
Prompt: Poprocks' proudest achievement is his latest rider - a young girl once anxious to approach or ride a horse. Rented as a beginner pony, Poprocks went through many green riders, but only one touched his heart. His latest rider had been with him the longest, finding confidence and comfort through this horse's patience and gentle nature. They attended their first junior shows together, and napped under sun and moon enjoying each others company. The rider went on to ace competitions with another horse, and Poprocks couldn't of been more proud.
Poprocks is since retired from his rent-a-pony duty, basking in the fond memories of his heart-human.

P.S im not sure if this is still up for adoption!! thought i might give it a go anyway-

Foundation Walker

To get your foundation horse, pick a coat color type from the options given. Your equine will be guaranteed to have that coat color type, but their exact base will be randomly generated!

For example if you choose dun, you could get a red dun, an amber champagne dun, or even a grullo.

If you picked black, you could get black, grullo, or even a classic champagne.

Other modifiers like silver, pangare, and flaxen are also randomized and potentially added.

You will also be able to list 3 markings you wouldn't mind added to your foundation. You will be guaranteed 1 of these markings.

ＢＡＳＩＣＳ
While exploring, you have a chance to find food/herbs, encounter some friendly faces, and even find rare items! However, remember this is a survival game! Your cats may get sick, engage in battles with predators, fight in border skirmishes, or receive random injuries. Your cats will not die in explore unless you opt-in to death. Everything you do in explore will earn you experience (EXP / XP), which is used to level-up and earn cool rewards (below)!

Here are some pointers to help you get started!
1. To begin, fill out the explore code provided below! You may pretty the code up, but please keep all the information from the base coding clearly visible in the post itself (not linked somewhere offsite/on another thread). Here is a handy checklist to ensure you have all the required info.



Code: Select all

[left][url=ArchiveLink][size=150]Clan Name[/size][/url]
[size=85][url=link]Last Explore Post[/url] | [url=link]Last Response Received[/url]

Including writing for your explore post is optional! However, the more you write, the more experience (XP) you earn. You may also pretty this up if you'd like, or change the coding, however, make sure everything that is originally on here remains on here ([url=https://i.ibb.co/c826FbX/image.png]see this handy checklist to help you out[/url]) c:

2. When you first start out, you’ll receive three free posts. These are given out per user, not per clan and provides your cats time to gather food and herbs! Your cats will gain no hunger for your first three posts. They also won’t encounter any predators or border skirmishes, fall ill, or receive any random injuries.

3. Max of six cats (adults/apprentices) on patrol, please! Additional cats can be included in your writing, but they won't count towards the rolls and shouldn't be linked in the "cats on patrol" sections. Kits cannot be added to the patrol list!

4. HP = health; HUP = hunger! All of your cats will start at 0% HUP (hunger) and 100% HP (health). Find out more information about HUP in “hunger & custom prey” and on HP in “health & healing”.

5. (Optional) If you’d like, you may customize your prey/predator list and/or opt-in for death! Just fill out the forms, post them on the explore thread + link them in your future explore post(s)!

6. Explore writing can be about anything, but should ideally end with / connect to a patrol! It’s a good idea to leave your explore post open for writers to jump-in, because the writer who responds will be writing about any prey/herbs found and any mini-scenarios encountered. Alternatively, you're welcome to send a patrol out without any writing as well.

7. After you've posted your explore post, wait for a writer to reply to your post before writing another one! Writing a quality explore reply can take time, so please be patient. Writers have one month (from the time they claimed your post) to get a response out to players, though it typically won't take that long. Your post wasn't skipped; we have multiple writers claiming different posts, and some might finish their replies sooner than others. For ease, you may also check if your post has been claimed and find all your prior posts and replies on our explore log!

8. When a writer responds, you may (or may not) receive a mini-scenario! If you’re still on your three free posts, you’ll encounter one of our friendly npcs! Read more about npc tasks and other mini-scenarios here!


ＬＥＶＥＬＳ
To level up, you'll need to earn experience (EXP / XP) through exploring, participating in prompts, or sometimes even events! You'll earn +10XP for every explore post posted, as well as additional experience for writing, participating in battles, finding herbs/food, etc. Every time you level up, you get a reward!

When you level up, your previous experience is "spent" on the level up and will not roll over to your new level. For example, if you have 135XP and are level 0, you'll level up to level 1 and have 35XP left. You cannot skip levels.

All users start at level zero! Experience listed is how much is required to reach that level (+ here is another way to visualize this).
Level one: 100XP| Rewards: +1 FP, +50 SD
Level two: 200XP | Rewards: +1 FP, + 1 Herb, +1 Common Edit
Level three: 300XP | Rewards: +2 FP, +1 Herb, +1 NR MYO
Level four: 400XP| Rewards: +2 FP, +2 Herbs, +1 Uncommon Edit, +1 Stellar Remnants
Level five: 500XP | Rewards: +3 FP, +2 Herbs, +1 Random Custom, +150 SD
Level six: 650XP | Rewards: +3 FP, +3 Herbs, +1 Star's Blessing, +1 Boon Of Fertility, +100 SD
Level seven: 800XP | Rewards: +4 FP, +3 Herbs, +1 C MYO, +1 Shooting Star
Level eight: 950XP | Rewards: +4 FP, +4 Herbs, +1 Semi Custom, +300 SD, +1 1UC MYO
Level nine: 1000XP | Rewards: +5 FP, +4 Herbs, +1 UN MYO, +1 Rare Edit
Level ten: 1200XP | Rewards: +5 FP, +5 Herbs, +1 UR MYO
Level eleven: 1400XP | Rewards: +6 FP, +5 Herbs, +1 Supernova
Level twelve: 1600XP | Rewards: +6 FP, +6 Herbs, +1 Myth Edit

ＨＵＮＧＥＲ 　 & 　ＦＯＯＤ
To survive, your cats require food! Food points (FP) can be found randomly on patrols. The amount of food you find varies by season and number of cats on patrol. During some seasons, your cats may receive a bountiful hunt — this doubles the FP they find!

Your cats will gain +10% HUP (hunger) per patrol. This hunger gain only applies to the cats sent on that patrol. For your first three explore posts, none of your cats will gain any hunger. If a cat reaches 60% hunger or above, they will lose -10% health every patrol they go on, until they're fed enough FP to lower their hunger below 60%.

If you are running dangerously low on FP, you can purchase or swap for some from Mousespeck. If you have some spare FP, you can also trade those to Mousespeck for stardust, which can be used to buy cool items from Starclan’s shop!


ＦＥＥＤＩＮＧ 　ＹＯＵＲ 　 ＣＡＴＳ
Each FP you feed a cat removes 10% hunger (1FP = -10% hunger)! When feeding your cats, remove the prey items from your inventory and place them in the “inventory items used” box of your explore post! Make sure to also update your patrollers’ hunger accordingly in your explore post.

You can choose to split a larger prey item with multiple cats! For example, you can feed three cats with a 3FP piece of prey and each cat will lose 10% hunger. Or you could split it between two cats, and remove 20% hunger from one, and 10% hunger from another. As an additional note, you cannot split a 1FP prey between two cats (removing -5% health for each one). Each FP can only remove -10% hunger (nothing more and nothing less)!


ＤＥＦＡＵＬＴ 　 & 　ＣＵＳＴＯＭ 　 ＰＲＥＤＡＴＯＲ／ＰＲＥＹ 　 ＬＩＳＴ
(Optional) To make your explores more personalized, you’re welcome to pick what prey and/or predators will appear in your territory! This is completely optional, but if you’re interested just fill out the form below (in the code block)! Otherwise, writers will use the default list for prey and predators when replying to your posts!


Default Prey List:
1 FP = scraps, bugs
2 FP = mouse, vole, shrew, small fish
3 FP = minnow, squirrel, frog
4 FP = rabbit, bird, owl, falcon
5 FP = hawk, eagle, vulture
Default Predator List:
badger, fox, bird of prey, dog, snake

Form Reminders:
1. Make sure to link your custom prey/predator list in every explore post!
2. Your prey list should have at least 1 item for each FP value! 2-3 items per FP value is ideal
3. Lists can be specific or general (i.e. mouse or small rodent)
4. Fantasy prey is allowed, but please keep your lists realistic size-wise (i.e. a bear shouldn't be prey, an eagle shouldn't be worth 1FP, etc.)
5. Your predator list should have at least 1 predator! These shouldn’t include cats (you’ll encounter these in border skirmishes)

ＥＸＰＥＲＩＥＮＣＥ
Experience is awarded based on how many words you write, and/or the content of your art. All entries will receive experience (as long as you follow the art/writing only rules)!

Here is our writing exp scale, and here is our art exp scale. The writing exp scale is the same as the one used in explore. The art exp scale may be subject to change in the future.


ＳＴＡＲＤＵＳＴ
If you earn at least 60 exp total from all of your quest responses in a round, then you're eligible to receive stardust as a prize as well! You don't need 60+ exp from each quest; just 60 overall (i.e. 30 from quest one, 20 from quest two, 10 from quest three).

Your exp will be converted to stardust as follows: 1 exp = 2 stardust
Don't worry, you'll still receive experience as well! The stardust is just an additional, bonus prize.


ＷＩＮＮＥＲＳ
Winners are chosen based on effort, quality, and creativity. Prizes vary between months and quests, but Hana's favorite entries from each quest will receive a rarer bonus prize!

[ Nursery FAQ • Archive FAQ • MYO FAQ • Quest Board FAQ • Explore FAQ • Artist Search FAQ ]

Q: How do we win prizes? What can we win?
A: Participating in quests will earn you experience (xp), stardust and/or MYOs (as grand prizes)! The more you write or add to your art, the more experience and stardust you could earn!

Q: How are the quests judged?
A: Experience and stardust are awarded by effort, while MYO (grand prize) winners are chosen by effort, quality, and creativity!

Q: Are we allowed to answer all three quests available for the month?
A: Yes, absolutely!

Q: How do I claim XP from the Quest Board (or from other Stars events)?
A: Add a note with a link to where you earned the XP in your next explore post! You don’t have to do any math or add the XP on your own━a writer will do that for you in their reply! c:

Q: Can Hana ask the same question twice?
A: Theoretically, yes! Our quests are chosen via random number generator from a document that only staff have access to

Q: May I suggest a prompt?
A: Yes, please do! My (vivika) dms are always open to prompt suggestions and you're also welcome to drop them in the #suggestions channel of our discord <3

Q: I responded to a prompt, but didn't get any exp! What happened?
A: Please double check the requirements for the prompt. Writing done for art-only prompts and art done for writing-only prompts won't count for any experience. If you followed the prompt requirements and answered the right prompt, then there may have been a mistake on our end; we're only human after all! Please DM one of the staff members who helped judge to let them know!

Q: Can we collab with another user for prompts?
A: Yes, you're welcome to collab with other users for quests! Any writing / art done must be clearly split and divided, so we can award xp accordingly*. Please make sure to specify what each user did (if isn't already clear) and make a note about it being a collab somewhere in your entry!

* For example, one partner can create an art piece for Quest One and the other partner can write a poem to go along with the art! Alternatively, you may both create separate art pieces or separate written pieces for the quest. Creating a single art piece where one partner lines and colors, while the other partner shades would not be allowed (as this makes xp tricky to award)!

This board is now open for marking !

ＥＸＰＬＯＲＩＮＧ　／　ＰＡＴＲＯＬＬＩＮＧ
To start exploring, head on over to the explore thread and fill out the code provided! Explore is available to develop your cats and clan by sending them on patrols, where they can encounter various events and earn items along the way. This mechanic is also a great way to earn experience to level-up your clans and earn cool rewards!

Everything you need to know about explore is covered in-depth on the explore thread! You're welcome to contact Vivika or another applicable moderator with any questions you may have!


ＱＵＥＳＴＳ
Another way to gain experience, as well as develop your cats and clan, is to write and/or draw responses to the prompts provided on the quest board! Quests can vary from clan traditions, to lore, to something as specific as your founder's favorite prey.

These prompts are updated monthly, and will earn you exp based on how much effort you put into your response. To use this exp to level up and receive your level up rewards, you'll need to post an explore and link to the exp you earned from the quest board. Each prompt will have a few winners chosen as well, who will receive a cool additional prize! You'll also be able to earn stardust to purchase items from Starclan's shop.


ＬＥＶＥＬＳ
To level up, you'll need to earn experience (EXP / XP) through exploring, participating in quests, or sometimes even events! You'll earn +10XP for every explore post posted, as well as additional experience for writing, participating in battles, finding herbs/food, etc. Every time you level up, you get a reward!

When you level up, your previous experience is "spent" on the level up and will not roll over to your new level. For example, if you have 135XP and are level 0, you'll level up to level 1 and have 35XP left. You cannot skip levels.

All users start at level zero! Experience listed is how much is required to reach that level (+ here is another way to visualize this).
Level one: 100 xp | Rewards: +1 FP, +50 SD
Level two: 200 xp | Rewards: +1 FP, + 1 Herb, +1 Common Edit
Level three: 300 xp | Rewards: +2 FP, +1 Herb, +1 NR MYO
Level four: 400 xp | Rewards: +2 FP, +2 Herbs, +1 Uncommon Edit, +1 Stellar Remnants
Level five: 500 xp | Rewards: +3 FP, +2 Herbs, +1 Random Custom, +150 SD
Level six: 650 xp | Rewards: +3 FP, +3 Herbs, +1 Star's Blessing, +1 Boon Of Fertility, +100 SD
Level seven: 800 xp | Rewards: +4 FP, +3 Herbs, +1 C MYO, +1 Shooting Star
Level eight: 950 xp | Rewards: +4 FP, +4 Herbs, +1 Semi Custom, +300 SD, +1 1UC MYO
Level nine: 1000 xp | Rewards: +5 FP, +4 Herbs, +1 UN MYO, +1 Rare Edit
Level ten: 1200 xp | Rewards: +5 FP, +5 Herbs, +1 UR MYO
Level eleven: 1400 xp | Rewards: +6 FP, +5 Herbs, +1 Supernova
Level twelve: 1600 xp | Rewards: +6 FP, +6 Herbs, +1 Myth Edit


ＧＥＴＴＩＮＧ　ＮＥＷ　ＣＡＴＳ
To gain new cats for your clan, you can participate in adopt competitions, purchase customs, or breed your cats. You can also sometimes find MYO tickets in explore, or win them as prizes from the quest board!

To adopt a cat via a competition, check out the cats colored-in under this page. If a cat has an "adopt me!" sign on their drawing, they're probably available for adoption. We also regularly host readoptions here. Be sure to check the end dates though, because some competitions may have already closed!

To purchase a custom, you'll need to wait for an artist to open slots on the main thread. You can read more about customs here. To design a MYO ("make your own") with a MYO ticket, visit the MYO page. You can design MYOs yourself, or recruit another user/artist to design them for you!

You can also gain more cats by breeding your cats in the nursery, though you'll need to wait for an artist to open slots. If you don't have two cats yet, you can use the nursery NPCs!


ＡＧＩＮＧ　ＵＰ
Apprentices can grow to warriors 3 weeks after being posted. Kittens can grow to apprentices 3 weeks after being posted, and then to warriors 6 weeks after the kitten was posted. Kittens without apprentice references will still take 6 weeks to grow to warriors.

To have your cat grown, you may politely bump the cat's page to remind the artist! Most artists will post growths without a reminder, and delays are often due to being busy in real life. There will be a date on the post telling you when your cat can grow.

Even after your cat's grown ref is posted, you are not required to grow your cat in lore! You're welcome to keep your cats any age in lore for as long as you'd like.

If you'd like to skip the 3 week wait, the star's grace item in Starclan's shop can be used to skip the wait for one stage of one cat. (For example, a kitten can skip the 3 week wait and grow to an apprentice immediately, but they'll still need to wait another 3 weeks to become a warrior.) If a kit has no apprentice ref, using this item will remove 3 weeks from their growth time rather than skip them directly to a warrior.

Sometimes an artist has a difficult time choosing just one winner for an adopt, and will reward an HM (honorable mention) or RU (runner up) to other entries. HMs can be used to purchase customs when an artist opens custom slots. You can find the HM custom prices here. RUs are an additional cat designed by the artist that will belong to you.
