Welcome to the Sanctuary!
Notice to Old Users wrote:We run slightly differently than before.
1: Each ambie has an ID, but automatically into its form, so don't worry about that - except make sure you get he right form!
2: Any applications with the same old, boring, 'I went in and loved it, filled in a form and now I wait' will be ignored.
3: You are welcome to keep the old ambies in your signature, but they can no longer get items, breed or have a page. It's just too complicated.
3: There's various new things, but I can't say until the thread's fully opened.

Hello there! Welcome to the Sanctuary, a place where many species of fauna - and flora - from the warring Darkworlde can seek sanctuary. Long ago, a war started between the Magi, with their new ideas and reluctance to respect the old ways, and the Druids - who hate anything that goes against tradition and are reluctant to embrace the new age. You can see why there was a war. But anyway, it's another story.
Ambies, among other creatures, were getting killed in the battlefield as the fighters surged into their habitat more and more. So being, like all Darkworlde creatures, animals of magic, the ambies summoned a portal. In their haste, they forgot to direct the portal to the Ambrosian Lands, and here they are, on Earth.
But now we find ourselves overwhelmed as more and more creatures come our way - ambies are the strongest magicians of the Darkworlde's animals, and the other kinds were too weak to summon their own, so they simply come through the ambies'.
We knew we had to get rid of some - into caring homes, of course. The other creatures were still adapting, and some were wounded from the battle. The only species well enough to be released from the ex-pound, now renamed - in honor of the ambies' intended destination - The Ambrosia Sanctuary for Darkworlde Lifeforms. The Sanctuary for short!
To make sure the ambies go to a safe home, we hand out forms and get them used to their owners first. Why don't you go and interact with the ambies there are at the moment? Careful, don't apply for one you don't really want - there is an overall limit of ten-per-owner, and you may only adopt one every week - to help your ambies get settled in.

Hi there! Welcome to the Ambie Question&Answer desk. If you're thinking of adopting, this little booklet might answer some of your questions. If you still need help, please do ask me!
Is there anything I should know right away?
Well, yes. These things grow like crazy! They have certain 'stages' - the first, kitt. Then, roughly two days later, juvenile. At this stage, any special items such as wings tend to make an appearance. And finally, adult, when they are mature, and can breed.If you want to make your ambies stay as they are, a baby/juvenile forever, ice cubes are available from the store. ((There's no shame in it - I prefer the baby lines!))
How can I adopt?!
Sometimes you can win one in a raffle, or get a gift one for some reason. But mostly, head over to the Ambies ward. It's not hard to find. There's a big sign. It says 'Ambies' on it. Then, if you like the ambie, you can fill in a form for one. Each form has a theme, and though I mainly look at contact, if I'm unsure, I also look at presentation.
So... I adopted. What happens next?
