This event is to help celebrate the groups opening into Beta (more or less) since the info has been redone and it hasn't been very active in the past. Hopefully this can attract some new members and get the group going again. 

And just a PSA because it's been confused before: Sivatag Hounds are a non-rideable species as they are only 91-137 cm or 3- 4.5 feet at the shoulder. 

Also, you MUST be a member of the group to get a Sivatag Hound and participate in any of these activities! 

Free Geno's for NEWBIES!

If your new to the group or don't own a Sivatag Hound, you may choose one of these genos. Some range into the uncommon and even rare rarity level. 
- only one geno per person please!

There have been genetic changes, so the geno's listed are listed correctly, the ones in the breeding comment are wrong, so when designing, please follow the geno here.

If you don't find a geno you want from the list above, you can go to the Sivatag Den and get a free Geno there, though what you can pick is very limited!

The Sivatag Den

It's an Exploration Celebration!

Go exploring in the month of September and earn double the loot, double the AP, and there's a chance that you'll find Mysterious Chests and a chance that this mysterious Siva may follow you home: 

[after this Siva follows someone home, another will be added etc...]

DTA's for Everyone:

- The winner of these DTA's will be picked at the end of August, so it is NOT first come, first serve. 
- You may enter more than once for each Siva available. 
- The more effort you put into your piece, the more likely you are to win, so 5 sketches will not equate to a fully detailed piece filled with effort
- please submit your entries to the Adoption Submissions folder
- giving a name and personality to the Siva you want does help with the effort factor.

       

Starter Breeding Slot Challenge!

Find all starters here

How it Works:

- If you want a chance at a slot to a starter, all you have to do is draw or write about it! You may include your Sivatag Hound (if you own one) to get it some sweet AP! 
- Each entry you do gives a chance at a slot! 
- Once you've won a slot to a certain starter, you can't win a slot to the same start again in this manner.
- You may win up to FOUR slots total! 

Art/Writing Requirements:
- art must be bigger than 300 x 300 pixels
- art must be colored and have a background
- You may depict up to 4 starters in a single piece! (plus your Siva's)
- Starters must have at least 75% of their body showing
- Writing must be more than 800 words.

Submit your artwork or writing to the general art or writing folders.

Breeding Bonus!

Breed your Sivatags during the month of August and have a litter roll of 2-6 offspring no matter your Sivatags AP level!! Items and traits do stack with this! 

Remember, your Sivatag Hound must have it's obedience and pedigree trials done if tame. If it's wild, you don't have to do anything.
(if your Siva says it has it's training done , etc... then it is okay to breed)
