● You are allowed 7 Kiamaras, and 3 MicroKias. No co-owning or trading Kiamaras or MicroKias.
● Kiamaras and Microkias may not be fursonas
● Do not complain about the prices of kiamaras. I have my reasons; while I respect your opinions, I'm not going to change my ways.
● You may not sell your Kiamara for any type of currency.
● Trading and revamping of Kiamara are currently not allowed.
● If you are banned from Kiamaras, staff have the right to revoke and re-adopt your Kiamaras. You may not post images or share your Kiamaras publicly, and you cannot post in any Kiamara-related threads.
● If you want to have your Kiamara "divorce", you must bring it up with me with a reason. Your Kiamara can only "divorce" once.
● Do not ask for customs.
● I will hand out customs to people on my own terms. No complaining if I give some to friends.

Gifting Rules

● When you gift, you must wait 1 month before gaining a new Kiamara (from gifting, winning, or breeding).
You will not be able to be gifted back the same the Kiamara at any point.

● In order to gift, you must ask me, apple, before gifting.

● I am allowed to reject any gifting for any reason. I do not have to give you a reason.

● Giving a Kiamara without permission can result in a ban and having the Kiamara being taken away.

Readoption Rules

● If you no longer want your Kiamara, you can ask the artist or me to re-adopt it.

● There are no runner ups for re-adoptions. (this rule may not count for very specific and special cases)

● You may pick the contest type and have a say-so in in judging, but I will be the main judge for re-adoptions; and you do not have final say in who wins.

Growth Rules

● You must wait 1 month between each stage. The 1 month starts from the day you own a Kiamara, not the day it was posted.

● You may ask artists to grow your Kiamara. If they are busy or you feel like you can grow them, you must ask apple for permission.

● Other users are allowed to grow your Kiamara if they get it cleared with me before posting it.

● You must show me any growths you do before it's posted.

Q: How do I adopt a Kiamara?
A: If you are interested in adopting a Kiamara, there are many up for adoption at a given time. To find out which are up for adoption, you may browse through them above, or you can visit the Archives where they are listed. To adopt a Kia, you must fill out the form and comply with all rules listed by the artist in the first post below the individual Kiamara.

Q: How many Kiamaras can I apply for?
A: There is no limit on the number of Kiamara you apply for at a given time, though we suggest you limit yourself to a few so that you can focus on them. However, if you win a Kiamara and reach your 4 Kia max, you must drop out of all other adoptions, and are not permitted to own any other Kiamaras, unless you put one of yours up for re-adoption.

Q: Can I have/make a custom?
A: Customs are given only to staff members. No amount of begging or bribing will change this fact.

Q: Can a PPS Kiamara have a mate/bf/gf?
A: PPS Kiamaras have the mentality of children, and therefore are not likely to develop any relationships aside from friendships and crushes. They are not permitted to seriously date, nor may they have mates.

Q: Can I add items to my Kia?
A: Upon adopting a Kiamara, owners are permitted to add a few minor accessories to their Kiamara, with the artists’ approval. Minor accessories would include a small necklace, bracelet, or perhaps flower. Clothing and major edits (hair, eyes, etc.) are not permitted.

Q: Can I ask two people to breed their Kiamaras so I can have the baby?
A: Asking a friend, or stranger, to breed their Kiamaras with another so that you may have the child is not permitted. Kiamaras mate once, and we discourage people from mating their Kiamaras solely for the purpose of breeding.

Q: If I win a Kiamara, do I get to keep all of the art used in forms?
A: If art is included in an adoption process, art does not automatically belong to the winner. Permission must be given voluntarily by the artist and/or art purchaser for the new owner to use the art.

Q: Will a runner-up Kiamara be given in ______ adoption?
A: Runner-Ups are given only by regular artists in adoptions in which they have trouble deciding between forms and/or believe more than one individual is deserving of the Kiamara. RUs are generally designed to be similar to the initial design, but will have variation. Do not ask an artist if there will be RUs, nor should you beg for one. If they believe someone is deserving of one, they will grant one.

Q: How do I grow my child Kiamara?
A: For children Kiamara, once your Kia has reached the adult age (after four months of ownership), please speak with the original artist about “growing” your Kia on the adult lines. If they are busy you may request another artist do it for you.

Q: How does a Kiamara get their feathers?
A: Kiamara feathers may be obtained in any number of ways, and are not required to have come from a Kiamara’s “parents”. Some Kiamara may simply find their feathers themselves, while others may be given them for doing something important.

Q: Can I change my Kia's design/hair?
A: Once you own a Kiamara you are absolutely not permitted to revamp the design, nor make any line edits (which includes hair/mane). The only exception to this is customs, and if you are given permission from both the artist as well as an admin.

Q: Can my Kiamara be ______'s pet?
A: Kiamaras are not allowed to be pets, but they are permitted to have pets (bird, snake, fish, etc.)

Q: What color is a Kiamara's paw pad/tongue?
A: Generally Kiamara paw pads and tongues will be the same color as the eyes. But of course some people can choose other colors, as long as they aren't too ridiculous (ie bright green paws and tongue on a black Kiamara with orange eyes).

Q: When are special Kiamaras released?
A: Every 50th Kiamara has custom lines/edits while every 100th Kiamara is done specifically by Apple and has completely unique lines.

Q: Do Kiamaras live in groups?
A: Kiamaras live in packs or alone. Packs range from 3-15, and do not include babies in that number.

Q: Can two Kiamara have the same name?
A: Kiamaras usually may not have the same name. Variations are fine, but no Kiamara may have the exact same name as another. All owned Kiamaras are listed in the Archives, you can go there and CTRL + F a name to see if it has been taken.
There are times though, if there is a certain name that you just desperately see your kiamara with no other name, but it is taken, you may ask the owner of the kia with the name you want. If they say yes, just let Tano know with proof of the yes, and you are all set! If they say no, then I'm afraid you are out of luck.
