OH WOW I JUST GOT A LAN!!!
prairie • 16 Feb 2018, 12:05 AM
IDK if anyone else is having this problem, but Lan image isn't sowing up for me in creatures coves when I click it? š Same if I view them on the Missing Creature page. :/
immortalraven • 16 Feb 2018, 12:07 AM
Cool x3 What's the Lan supposed to be again. [I'm half Chinese and tis sad I don't know but yeah >.>] Is it dog related since this year is year of the dog? x3 Since last year was rooster and last year's critter went with the animal that year was

animalinn • 16 Feb 2018, 12:10 AM
@prairie I'm having the same exact issue! So it's not your computer or anything.
icymuffin • 16 Feb 2018, 12:10 AM
@immortalraven Design-wise, it's a lion, based on the ones used in the Lion Dance. Could easily be whatever in Ark lore o^o
boop • 16 Feb 2018, 12:13 AM
@immortalraven lol i'm chinese (half hong kong half taiwanese) @prairie I have the same problem :/
immortalraven • 16 Feb 2018, 12:14 AM
@icesparkle22 Yup, my dad is Chinese. He moved to America with his family when he was only 8 x3 /side note/ My brother is his favorite cause he's a boy... He'd never admit it but I can see it o3o He's my mama's favorite too. First son of the first son kinda stuff >.>
immortalraven • 16 Feb 2018, 12:20 AM
@icymuffin Ah, mmk so not going by the year it is then. Good maybe next year I'll get an ox x'D [my sign] Prob not though especially since the next time it is isn't til 2021. I really want one critter for each sign though >.< [but not by the year, maybe event] That'd be cool x3
immortalraven • 16 Feb 2018, 12:25 AM
@icymuffin Yeah, I'd have liked a dog since my boyfriend's sign is that [When I was younger I was very into Chinese zodiac and astrological ones and all that stuff] Lol I'm an ox and a Taurus x'D
aedia • 16 Feb 2018, 12:27 AM
Wow, I really love the Lan, such a cool looking creature! I hope that I'm able to find some!! š
wigglytuff • 16 Feb 2018, 12:29 AM
@icesparkle22 WHAT NUUUUU (None of any other peeps will understand xD ) OMG WUT I mean I like it but still... xD (I totally like the creature but the name is just....)
icesparkle22 • 16 Feb 2018, 12:38 AM
@wigglytuff now i cant stop imagining the Lan swimming lol @immortalraven that's really cool! my parents moved from china when they were adults, but i'm american, it sometimes bugs them to see me be so "un-chinese" haha
veritaspunk • 16 Feb 2018, 12:50 AM
Why do I keep thinking about a Laniwon hehe ... @immortalraven I'm an Ox and Virgo ... like with them all some apply to me, some don't.
wigglytuff • 16 Feb 2018, 12:57 AM
@icesparkle22 LANNNNN Lan are very fast swimmers due to their relationship with Lan. THEY SHOULD ADD THAT TO DE DESCRIPTION š
aedia • 16 Feb 2018, 1:09 AM
@prairie I see the creature fine in the blog and the archives, but then the one that I adopted has a broken image for some reason, so I think I'm having the same problem?
cosmia • 16 Feb 2018, 2:58 AM
Yay! You brought last year's back! ā¤ļø
nexu • 16 Feb 2018, 3:29 AM
the LAN is so cute ā¤ļø
icedmagma • 16 Feb 2018, 8:22 AM
ā¤ļøā¤ļø my husband is Chinese, year of the dog, you can bet I'm going to get my hands on as many of these as possible!
ethereality • 16 Feb 2018, 9:29 AM
But, the Lan is a lion, right? My parents are from Hong Kong so I should know o.o But yes happy lunar new year everybody and wonderful art ECT!! šā¤ļø
aedia • 16 Feb 2018, 9:50 AM
The Lan's image is still showing up broken in the adopted one that I have and other people's. I see the image fine in the blog, just not in the adopted creatures. Anyone else?
wigglytuff • 16 Feb 2018, 11:17 AM
@ethereality you're Chinese too?š± o.o I never knew that xD
Meteoroid • 16 Feb 2018, 11:55 AM
They're more akin to lions with the heart of a puppy. From what I understand, it's kind of a mixture of references to both the zodiac (year of the dog) and traditional celebratory costumes for the Lunar New Year. So... everyone is right!
Meteoroid • 16 Feb 2018, 11:56 AM
All I know is that the Lan looks grand. Happy Lunar New Year!
idol • 16 Feb 2018, 12:33 PM
That is such a cute idea ^^ would love to have a few. Year of the dog right here. ^^
ethereality • 16 Feb 2018, 12:46 PM
@wigglytuff Well, kinda, if you consider Hong Kong part of China (its a S.A.R.)
wigglytuff • 16 Feb 2018, 1:15 PM
@ethereality yeah i guesss š
stefrawr • 16 Feb 2018, 2:48 PM

gvantsa • 16 Feb 2018, 5:02 PM

scorch_cloud222 • 16 Feb 2018, 7:36 PM
