DRESS UP YOUR DINNO - Dress up your Dinno with these amazing Trinket Travels.

  

ENDANGERED - The Taigrin is now an endangered species, which means that it can no longer be found in the Cave.

NIPHA TEAPOTS - These teapots are now restocking at the Bean Sack.

   

IT'S JUNE - Happy June from Egg Cave. Our northern hemisphere players are enjoying the best of summer (sorry, southern hemisphere, we'll trade places with you in January).

RED CREATURES - This month's Cash Shop Monthlies are randomly themed the color RED! Yay!

They also came from the CDWC contest. Congratulations to our Archives entry winners! Here are the Gorri and Osi.

BLUE CREATURES - This month's Cave Monthlies are randomly themed the color BLUE! Yay! The Poibleu came from the CDWC contest. The other is the Illumilux. Welcome to Ark, species!

THE DINNO - The first ever CDWC contest creature to be released is the Dinno, written by player megadash!

Congratulations! Remember, when you win the CDWC, you'll get the first creature of that species.

CDWC UPDATE - We made a boo-boo. We were accidentally saving the egg description text field to BOTH the egg description AND creature description fields in the database which basically means that... we didn't save your creature descriptions for the CDWC. Oops. Our bad.

We've re-opened your entries for editing in the CDWC. Please fill in your creature descriptions for your entries. And if you're feeling a second wave of inspiration, feel free to edit your egg descriptions too.

ACTION REQUIRED: For existing entries, please re-enter your creature description. We didn't save your information right. Sorry about that! This will NOT happen again!

CREATURE DESCRIPTION CONTESTS - We're introducing a brand-new, official community contest at Egg Cave! It's the Creature Description Writing Contest ("CDWC"). It's accessible under the global Community tab.

We'll post a collection of creatures in the contest area and you can write a submission for the egg description and creature description as it would appear in The Archives. Once we pick the best creature description combination, the winner will have their name credited in The Archives entry, be able to shape the site's lore and story arc, and will receive this creature for free even if it ends up being a Cash Shop Monthly.

Here's the fine print:

• Become eligible for entering the contest by posting 100 quality forum posts.
  
• You can't name the species; only site staff can. Use a placeholder species name in your submissions. This helps everybody have an equal chance at creature naming once the species is released in real time.
  
• Not all new Egg Cave species will appear in the CDWC. Site staff will still write descriptions behind closed doors.
  
• When a creature disappears from the CDWC, it does not mean that it will be immediately available for release.
• Right now, creatures that appear in the CDWC won't be there for a set time. In other words, some creatures might be posted there for weeks, others might only be there for days. We may standardize this in the future but not for right now.
  
• Egg Cave staff reserves the right to modify your submission. We really, really don't plan on doing this (like ever) but there is a possibility that we may have to tweak a winning submission for contradictory inter-species issues, grammatical issues, or long-term site planning (i.e. plots). The goal as a contestant is that you would be familiar enough with the site's lore to avoid these issues.

TRINKET TRAVELS - Today, we're introducing a brand new feature called Trinket Travels. Ever wanted to add wings to your Frice or a cape to your Pyraguin? Well now you can.

Trinket Travel item names indicate which evolution stage the Travel is intended for. Trinket Travels, however, are available for use on all species and all evolution stages (so there are no restrictions if you're feeling ultra-creative or if a Chimera Trinket Travel happens to look good on your Alkub coincidentally!).

Visit Wendy at the Trinket Travels store.

AND SO MANY MORE COMBINATIONS!

MORE COMBINATIONS - More combinations for Trinket Travels are being actively completed for all species.
