Celebrations?! We're all about it.


Tim's Food Shoppe

  • Tim's Food Shoppe has been completely redesigned.
  • A whole new way to book creatures: filter out your immortals and easily see the creatures you need to book.
  • Extend your service while your creatures are at Tim's!
  • Cancel service early for a partial refund!


Science and Research Center: Creature Labs

  • A very generous, anonymous donor has covered the remainder of the recovery fund at the Science and Research Center. The thief or thieves have yet to be found.
  • Introducing the Creatures Labs, where you can purchase new and rare creatures for EC.
  • Say hello to the Flub and Trinit, the new genetically engineered species (with many more to come!):

Easier Generation with EasyCode

  • Easily generate a list without immortals (even if you accidentally select one).
  • Ability to generate a list from an existing Cove List (no need to copy).


Strongroom Updates

  • The "Collect Interest" option will now be disabled for the day if you make a transaction (deposit or withdrawal) prior to collecting interest. Remember to collect interest first now!
  • Enjoy an increased interest rate from 7% to 8%!


Profile Updates

  • New preferences for accepting friend requests: Enabled, Disabled (in Account Controls)
  • Blocked users can no longer offer on your trades.
  • We hope you're not this boring, but users can now have blank statuses.
  • You can now specify a default Cove List to display on your Profile (in Manage Profile).


More To Talk About: Forums

  • Enjoy an increased character limit of 10,000 characters on forum posts (for you, our magical roleplayers).
  • Keep track of your character count when writing.


Adoption Center Updates

  • The Adoption Center in Ark City has been redesigned.
  • View all of the creatures available for adoption, not just when there's 3 or more available.
  • Abandon as many creatures as you'd like per day (no limit). Remember though that your creature is for life!

Isn't Trinit a product of scientific experimentation? Why in the archives it also says about ancient folklore about Trinits? There were --
