Black dust is in the air while multiple eyes glow red and eerily in the dark. But don't be afraid, there is no Monster here. At least, that's what they say..

Deep within the forest, there is said to be a mysterious wispy shadow flying through the darkness. Despite their giant size, their dark body blends perfectly into the shadows. But once their crimson glowing eyes are staring at you, it might already be too late.

At first, only a faint fluttering of wings can be heard behind you. But as you try to move through the forest, several red eyes start following you between the trees, only for them to disappear once you turn around.

Naturally, rumors began to spread that the mysterious eyes in the shadows were some kind of Monster. But what if the creature is even more dangerous than a Monster..?

Summer is gone and ThE CRISP AIR OF AUTUMN IS HERE!

As the days start to get shorter and the nights longer, it's obvious the hot days of Summer are coming to an end. With the first frosts setting in, the plants all around are turning various colors of red, orange, yellow, and brown, and the leaves are falling from their trees. How does your pacapillar enjoy the Autumn season? Are they going for a stroll to step on as many crunchy leaves as possible, or are they excited for Soulbloom Feast just around the corner?

There's a cold breeze drifting through the air... Better bust out your sweaters!

As the leaves change for the season painting the land in many different colors, the winter temperatures are following quickly behind making it difficult to enjoy the colorful scenery. To enjoy autumn to its fullest, you'll have to do some extra steps to keep warm! How does your pacapillar keep warm as the seasons change? Are they knitting a blanket for their friend? Perhaps they're having a movie night indoors with friends? Maybe they just purchased a new jacket and called it a day!

Missed a past Creature Feature? Don't worry, you have a second chance at them!

Submit art/writing of the pet of the month to obtain that pet! Including a Pacapillar or Snekket is optional!

Our current pet of the month for October is... Menyace!

Small Description:
While cute and cuddly, this pet is known for biting at Pacapillar nubs for fun!

Extended Description:
Be careful with this flying, black cat around. Many Pacapillars notice that their candies they save for trick or treaters tend to go missing, only to find a kitty with a belly full of sugar lying around somewhere in their den! Although perhaps a happy kitty is not the worst thing in the world.

Chrysalopolis is full of fun creatures to befriend, and sometimes they just come home with you too!

Pets are a Pacapillar's best friend, many of which collecting the various critters for companionship. How did your Pacapillar meet their pet? Did they adopt them at a charity adoption event? Maybe their family has raised the pet species that for decades! Or perhaps you just found the little rascal rummaging through your trash bins.

Regardless of the circumstances, the bond you share with your pet is a special one, and how you meet should always be cherished.

Our current pet of the month for October is... Candy-cor!

Small description:

Though many try to enter their Candy-cor into Cor shows, most of these pets melt under the hot spotlights before they get to be featured!

Extended Description:

This completely edible version of our favorite cor pet is sold exclusively during the Soulbloom Feast! Don't be alarmed by its life-like appearance, though; many young Pacas mistake the Candy-cor for being a real pet, but it's actually only made up of candy!

so many little friends! Show us your adventures and fun things you do together!

Draw your pacapillar or snekket with their pets!
NOTE: Farm critters (Kips, Moffs, and Baas) do not count as pets for this prompt!

Nothing brings everypaca together quite like a Feast!

Draw or write about your Pacapillar/Snekket enjoying a Soulbloom Feast/Thanksgiving Feast with their friends! A background is not required for this prompt.

Pooling domes of color, you cannot help but follow...

After a long day of volunteering, its time to wrap up for the day and hit the hay! However, something in the treeline keeps distracting you, and once you finally lay eyes on it you are unable to look away... In fact, you feel becked to follow it, leaving your station behind.

Draw or write about your Pacapillar following the Psychodeerik pet into the surrounding woodlands.

NOTE: Snekkets (as the main character) are NOT allowed for this prompt. The Psychodeerik is required to be drawn taller than a Standard Pacapillar. See below for a size reference for the Psychodeerik! 

The Tree of Souls has a way of invoking vulnerable feelings about the past...

After being led into the forest, in which you're not entirely sure how you ended up there, you are forced to bare witness to the Tree of Souls. With no one else around, now seems like a good time to remember some old companions. How do you remember? Do you talk to the tree, or maybe sit in silence as you think about those memories?

Draw or write about your Pacapillar taking some time to be vulnerable with the Tree of Souls.

NOTE: Snekkets (as the main character) are NOT allowed for this prompt.

YOU ARE VISITING THE COUNTRYSIDE ONCE AGAIN. YOU DECIDE TO PAY A VISIT TO YOUR FRIEND DARLING. AS YOU APPROACH THE FARM, SHE INTERCEPTS YOU:

"WELCOME BACK, DEAR FRIEND! EVERYTHING HAS BEEN JUST DANDY LATELY, I AM ALMOST DONE GATHERING TODAY'S EGGS FROM THE COOP, WOULD YOU MIND HELPIN' ME OUT? WE CAN HAVE SOME COFFEE LATER ♥"

AS YOU ARE HELPING DARLING WITH THE EGGS, ONE OF THEM STARTS CRACKING... A TINY KIP COMES OUT OF IT!

Making new friends is always fun!

Whether you’re new to Chrysalopolis, or have been here for years, it never hurts to try your nub at meeting new Pacas! Hero is always willing to make new friends, trying to befriend anyone he hasn’t already. Even if he’s just another civilian, he’s a staple for the city, seemingly knowing everyone in Chrysalopolis, somehow, even Pacas in the Gilled Domain and Forbidden Forest… Once you meet him, it’s very clear however why this is the case; he’s very charismatic and fun to be around! Even the most introverted of Pacapillars enjoy spending time with the playful and selfless Paca.

Depict your Pacapillar or Snekket meeting Hero! Are they dragged along to help save a Cake Pop from a tree together, or perhaps they’re playing pirates near the coast of the Gilled Domain with some cool sticks they found? Maybe they’re playing tag and getting as many Pacapillars nearby as they possibly can to play with them, making it an even more fun game!

YOU ARE VISITING THE COUNTRYSIDE ONCE AGAIN. YOU DECIDE TO PAY A VISIT TO DARLING TO SEE HOW SHE IS FARING; AS YOU APPROACH THE FARM, YOU SPOT HER RUNNING ALL OVER THE FARM, CHASING A HERD OF MOFFS AND BAAS.

YOU ARE TAKING A TRIP TO THE COUNTRYSIDE, AS YOU STROLL THROUGH THE  FIELDS YOU SPOT A PECULIAR-LOOKING PACAPILLAR. SHE APPROACHES YOU AS YOU PASS IN FRONT OF HER.
