Chrysalopolis Lore Gallery

As we share more of our world lore with everyone, we wanted a place to also keep all this information readily available and easy to refer back to for everyone. To do this, we have created a new gallery for staff and official artists to submit to that will have imagery for various locations around Chrysalopolis, as well as written pieces to describe the scenario or event more in-depth. Written pieces may take longer to be added, but in due time, will be added to the literature sections on their appropriate drawn pieces. You can view this new official gallery HERE !

NOTE: 
We still allow users to have their own creative freedom and will never enforce these lore segments too strictly unless stated otherwise; if a prompt should stick to canon lore more tightly, it will be mentioned in the rules / requirements of the prompt.

The first lore piece we have is by TornPages focusing the Tree of Souls during the month of November. Written lore still needs to be added to this piece, but a follow-up message will be posted in #paca-patch-notes in the Discord server when that has been added, (as well as being mentioned in our December newsletter.)

Wish Granting (Secret Santa) Sign Ups

We are happy to introduce a new hoiday tradition to Pacapillars, Wish Granting! This is essentially a Secret Santa exchange just with a different name. A followup news post will be posted shortly with information on participation rules and how to sign up. Sign ups will be open starting today, and will close on November 10th, 2024, so be sure to submit your form in time if you wish to participate!

The following visual guides have been added to the official guides gallery:

Game Nights!

ChaoChild 's Discord game nights will take place on November 2nd for a standard game night, and November 23rd for game of Frankensnekket! There will be reminders posted in the server when they're getting things ready and when the game is live! Be sure to keep an eye out to have some fun with what they have planned!

If you haven't yet, and you would like to participate in game nights, you can pick up the ping role for game nights in our #directory channel in the server!

DTE FrankenPaca

Last month's Frankenpaca result is still running for entries, but only until tomorrow! Be sure to get your submissions in to the Prompt and Gallery in time to be entered into the raffle!

 

Creature Feature Rules

Our prompt, Creature Feature, has had the below rule added. Please know that this has always been a rule for this prompt, but due to staff error that information did not originally end up as public as we intended. With this now being written however, we will adhere more strictly to this rule when approving submissions.
NOTE:
This rule only applies to Creature Feature for the time being. You are still allowed creative freedom for other prompts unless specified otherwise.

• • Pets should follow canonical sizing (See HERE) but should be no smaller than 1/5 of the Pacapillar's height, and no bigger than the height of the Paca.

    • This rough sizing applies to Standard Pacapillars; pets will always be much smaller in comparison to Subspecies Pacapillars and Snekkets.

    • This rule only applies to this prompt and we allow creative freedom on other prompts!

 

Reminder: Direct Messaging Staff

Reminder to all users to not DM staff members regarding questions, concerns, vouchers, or character appraisals. If you would like to speak to a staff member privately regarding the species, please open up a help ticket in our #contact-us channel in the Discord server, otherwise we ask that all questions are directed to our #✅questions-and-answers channel. Alternatively, you can submit something to our feedback form (found under "Help" in the navigation bar) with the option of remaining anonymous, or submit a claim here on site.

SoulBloom Feast
October 1st, 2024 - November 30th, 2024

It's officially Soulbloom Feast once again! All the souls of those no longer with us are being drawn into the Tree of Souls, causing it to illuminate and glow within the dark forest, but new candies that appear to be different from last year's seem to be blooming on the branches of this great cherished piece of nature.  Pacas from all over are flooding into the forest with their costumes and friends, not a worry in the world about the rumors of Monsters and Poison Pacapillars living in the forest, too interested in the fun festivities. 
You can read more about the lore for this event in last year's newsletter HERE

There will be 10 prompts in total for this event, allowing users a chance at 40 in total to spend at the Creeping Thyme Stall. Both October and November will have lore-related prompts linking back to August's lore prompt about Thyme and the Chrysalis Shards. If you missed that event, you can read the dialogue for the prompt in question HERE. October's prompts will run through November as well for anyone who missed them during October, but all prompts for this event can only be submitted once per year per user and will not refresh on monthly rollover.

There are 10 new candies to collect this year from Candy Bags! All new candies will be account bound until after the event has concluded. Once Boreal Wishes begins, all of this year's Candies will be tradable and donatable, but will no longer be sellable. Will you get the super rare Licorice Monster that has a 2% chance to roll?
