Surrounded by fog nearly year round, a sparsely populated island has had groups sent forth to settle the lush, and sometimes harsh, land. With the help of recently discovered natives, adventurers of all types are welcome to come and explore the island, forge friendships with the native people, trade goods and, most worthwhile, find some hardy horses for themselves.

On Datwon Island, there are a host of animals that call the forests, grasslands and even the craggy beach-view cliffs home. But, most treasured among these, are the horses that both roam the island and have been domesticated by the local peoples. There are four types to be found, with one being ever elusive even to those born to the island communities…

Welcome to Datwon Island!

▪ Be a respectful community member, to both staff and other adopters.
▪ Datwon Island is a closed adopt, please do not make any of our horses or humans unless you are an official artist.

▪ You may not be added to your adopted horse, nor may you add items or otherwise edit to the official image,
▪ except to crop or make into a stamp/button, etc.
▪ There is no limit on the amount of horses you may own, but any user with a worrying amount will be asked to slow down.
▪ This island uses more primitive means, as well as magic, in day to day life; carts, wagons… mechanical engineering is not possible on the island!
• You must have an up-to-date stable in order to breed your horses.
▪ Any horse may be sold, traded, or re-adopted - both must post ownership transfer on horse's page, contact the archivist, and
▪ HowlingHooves if any Zeeri or items are included in the transfer.
▪ Do not spam any Datwon related thread, we'd like to stay on topic, please.
▪ Staff are expected to follow the rules just as well, perhaps more so, as any Datwon member.
▪ Artists are not to be messaged if a breeding or custom is taking a while, instead send an inquiry to Hooves.
• Please only do so if you have been waiting for two weeks or more on any order.
▪ Warnings and bans will be sparse, but private if they do occur. Please do not advertise a warning, or harass another
- user about it. There are also to be no complaints or back talking to the staff about it.
▪ The island's currency is called River Zeeri, or Zeeri, and is used in many transactions. Despite this, much of the island holds to a
- bartering system. Horse trades, studding and leasing, and trading of unwanted items are the most
- common occurrence as there is no true shop in which to sell unwanted things on the island.

▪ Admin are always looking for suggestions and feedback as we fine-tune the adopt, do not hesitate to speak up!
▪ Threads like rps, line-arts, or specific art shops can be opened without permission. If there are any threads you think
- should be made officially, or if you want to open one, let us know! After giving permission, we'll link it.

As this is a fantasy-based island, you may have your horses communicate however you wish! If you want your horses to talk, they can! If they act like simple horses, that’s perfectly fine too! Otherwise, magic is wielded by the Vun-Toj and aligned with nature; runestones, aid in growth of plant-life, and other minor nature related magic is possible. Things such as fire manipulation, dark magic or magical flight are not possible.
Curses, both good and bad, can have unpredictable effects, however! If you cross a shopkeep, or a spirit, they may curse you in one of two ways; a good curse, wishing luck, or a bad curse, causing harm. Vun-Toj Spirits are more likely to curse than shopkeeps, but they also have more potent effects for either type.

Glad to see this are coming back. Really sad they will on longer be a rpg

[HowlingHooves]

I’ll be opening things fully tomorrow! Expect to see the mascot Aquell and Dyesdale, and some adopts!
Exploration will be open then, and you don’t need a horse to get going on that! The shop will take a bit of time, but to make up for this everyone who goes on their first exploration will have their chances doubled for encountering a wild horse!

More news on this will be posted on the explore page when things are ready. This will, however, only be available until Tuesday.

As for the comment regarding this being an ARPG, I currently have one going already.
There are a few others around, too, and it’s been mentioned that people are missing more laid back adopts.
I miss that as well, and with the diversity available on these lines it made more sense to convert it into something less time-consuming. So rather than put a second large, time-consuming ARPG on my plate this will be much more fun for a whole lot of people. c:

If that’s what you’re looking for, I highly recommend looking at the ARPGs running here on CS. There are quite a few currently and not all revolve around horses. <3
