Hi everyone! Monthly news for you all. 

Autumn foraging and encounters:

As promised, we have added one more foraging location and one more encounter region for autumn! These are in addition to last month's, and will be available until the beginning of winter. One more of each will be added on November 1st!

Foraging Locations:

• Pumpkin Patch

Encounter Regions:

• Farmer's Market

HAlLOWEEN:

We have decided not to host a full Halloween event this year, due to the ongoing lore event that will be running throughout the entirety of October. However, we do have a few things planned for you all!

Halloween Advent Calendar:

This will be hosted in the week running up to Halloween. Prizes will include items and new pets, with an prize for collecting all of the days!

HALLOWEEN GACHAS:

We will be hosting two gachas on October 31st! The information for both of these can be found below:

Cloud Coin Gacha:

We will be hosting a Cloud Coin gacha! Rolls will cost 2,500 CC each, and will distribute a unique Halloween or autumn themed variant of an on-site pet. These variants will not be obtainable through any other means, and thus are completely unique individuals.

USD Gacha:

Alongside the Cloud Coin Gacha, we will be hosting a USD gacha for Halloween and autumn themed designs! As with other gachas, rolls will cost $20 each.

SPACETOBER:

Inspired by an idea pitched by aPhantom in our Discord server, we have decided to host an October daily prompts list!

Rules:

• If drawing for this prompt, it MUST be at least a rough colored sketch fullbody with a props background!
• If writing for this prompt, it MUST be a minimum of 300 words!
• Prompts are intentionally vague! Interpret them however you wish.
• Pieces must be submitted to the Spacetober gallery on-site and to the Spacetober prompt with criteria attached to recieve full rewards!
• You have three days to complete each piece - for example, the Day 1 prompt will be available to be fulfilled until October 3rd, and so on!
• You do not need to complete each day to redeem pieces for rewards. You can do as many or as few as you like! Don't stress about it.
• While you are free to make your own prompt lists, or follow another user's, only the official prompt list shown on this newsletter will be eligible for Spacetober rewards. Pieces for alternative prompt lists can still be submitted for regular art redemption as normal.

Rewards:

• Cloud Coins (art redemption rates +100 per submission)
• 5 user exp
• 5 character exp
• +100 bonus Cloud Coins every 3 submissions
• If you complete at least one prompt from each row on the sheet (for a total minimum of 5 submissions), you can recieve a Random Item Box at the end of the month!

Lineages:

As some of you may have noticed, we are now beginning to add lineages to characters resulting from breeding batches and self breeds! This is being tracked for logistical reasons, to prevent any related characters from accidentally being paired with one another, and is not reflective of any actual lore that may be attached to characters. While we have already gone through many characters whose lineages we are aware of, we're missing many self breeds and old moderator batches.

To help with the process, we have created a turn-in prompt here. If you own any characters from self-breeds or breeding batches without lineages already added, please send in a submission to help us out! Please do not submit characters whose relation only exists in personal lore. While those characters cannot be paired with one another either, we are not officially tracking them as lore is subject to change when characters change hands.

The turn-in prompt for lineages can be found here! Thank you for your help.

October pay-to-enter raffle:

Design can be seen below! Each raffle ticket can be purchased for 500 cc and can be found in the Starstop Shop!

This raffle will close October 31st 23:59:59 site time! This will be rolled sometime the next day!

October Monthly Madness:

This month’s theme is Dress Up! Draw and/or write about your spacestation character dressing up! 

The October monthly madness will last till October 31st!
