Thank You For Your Feedback!

We had an incredible response to the recent random event. Vespera requested that adventurers investigate the mystery of a brand-new pet color by exploring the world of Santae and sharing your highly appreciated feedback -- and you delivered! Every one of your contributions will help shape the future of Santae.

The giveaway event is now closed, and Vespera has kept her promise. Now that she has returned to her shop in Shadow Veil Pass, she has shipped a Divine Synthwave Blepp Figurine to each adventurer who took part. Thank you so much for your invaluable feedback! Now to get to cleaning up the place! It got very dusty while she was gone, and needs to get everything in order for her newfound discoveries.

Check Your Inbox For Your Reward and Alpha Discoveries

During the long journey back to Shadow Veil Pass, Vespera has had plenty of time to reflect on all the amazing adventures she and the adventurers have had all across Santae over the past few months. Her notes and observations on all the exciting discoveries that have been made during the Alpha test were compiled into our first newsletter!

Whether you've been adventuring with us from the beginning or you're brand new to the world of Santae, the newsletter will remind you of all the amazing adventures we have gone on together since Alpha Testing began this past May. Vespera, her crew, and all adventurers have helped discover new pet species by taming the mourning Grusim, or by hatching your very own Harlowin, magical variations of pet colors and many mischievous Minimals.

Together we have helped Santae's ecosystem by cleaning up the shores, taught our companions how to fish, gather at newfound locations as well as pick scrumptious berries! Discovered evolutionary wonders with the Goopper Grotto and Quibbit Cove, and we have most recently learned how to tame Minimals in the wild and have them join along your adventure! This has all been made possible by the help of each esteemed adventurer, willing to help Vespera and her crew out, and we are forever thankful! 

The newsletter also contains a free gift from The Santae Team(crew) as a thank you to all of our Alpha Testers(adventurers)!

Make sure to check the email you used on your Alpha Testing Application to claim your reward, and keep a watch for new rewards with every newsletter to come!

Change is Upon Us

I can feel the winds of change on the horizon, adventurers - the Alpha Wipe is coming soon! By my calculations, we have only 12 more days to prepare for the event on September 2nd.

But fear not! I've got a few powerful magical tricks up my sleeve to protect the items I offer at the Cash Shop, as well as many other treasures we've discovered together on our journey, from the effects of the wipe. My advice to you? Start collecting all the rollover items you can now, to set yourself up for many more successful adventures after the wipe!

Now, let me share something truly exciting with you all. During my recent travels, Master Yushe showed me the discovery of the figurines he had no use for, and I have a surprise that I believe will leave you all as thrilled as I am. You remember the Divine Drava Figurines, right, those magical treasures we uncovered in the hidden ravine.

When I arrived home and opened the crate I discovered another mysterious figurine - one unlike I'd ever seen before. It's a Divine Synthwave Drava Figurine, the figurine is an enchanted item with the power to transform your pet into a majestic Drava, but this time, with a rare and technologically magnificent Synthwave Color. This color is so rare that its origins are believed to be from somewhere in Aleriea, and I'm determined to uncover its secrets.

I'm offering these Divine Synthwave Drava Figurines at my shop until the end of our Alpha Testing Journey. After that, they will not return until January 2025, so now's your chance to get one! Together, we can explore this new color and see if other species might also be available in this vibrant theme. Who knows what other mysteries we'll uncover along the way.

Let's make the most of these last days, and prepare for the exciting new chapter ahead!

Alpha account wipe coming soon

With the end of the Alpha Testing Period approaching, we're preparing to wipe all Alpha Tester accounts to prepare for Beta and Beyond.

The Alpha Wipe will occur on September 2nd, 2024. The site will be down for the wipe to make sure we get everything rolled over correctly. The downtime is expected to be 24-48 hours, it could be less but we want to give ourselves ample time to ensure it's done the best if can be. This also means instead of 9/21 being our last day open before we close for our downtime before Beta, 9/23 will be our last day of alpha testing. <3 We love you all and hope you all are excited to be able to build your accounts before expected! We cannot thank you all for the amount of support you all have provided to us throughout this amazing alpha testing phase. We knocked it out of the park! 

By completing the wipe before the beginning of Beta, existing users will have the opportunity to get a head start on their accounts. Everything you collect, create, and do on your account after the wipe will be permanently yours!

We will be wiping all player accounts, but we keep a log of every item, pet, sC, and reward that will transfer over to your account after our Wipe has finished. A full list of everything that will be reissued to your account after the wipe is detailed on our Alpha Rollover Policy page.

The secret of Quibblet evolution revealed!

Skylar sighed, leaning back against the rail of their boat. Hop was frolicking with a group of other Quibblets in the waters all around, but the researcher still felt no closer to unlocking the secret behind evolving the Minimals into their prismatic final form.

Adventurers from all over Santae had shown Skylar their own Quibblets, and shared all kinds of items gathered from places as hazardous as the Flamefall Cascades and as distant as the towering Celestial Peaks. With the generous donations, Skylar had been able to confirm the Quibblets’ voracious appetites. But something was still missing. Hop chose that moment to distract Skylar from their contemplation by leaping up out of the water to land in the bottom of the boat with a splat.

“Woah!” Skylar laughed. “Someone’s excited. What’s going on, Hop?”

But Hop didn’t pause or listen. It made a beeline for Skylar’s pack, wiggling quickly across the boat. Diving eagerly inside, Hop plucked a huge berry from the pack. The Quibblet stuffed the berry quickly into its mouth, then squirmed right back over the rail and into the water.

“Hop, wait!” Skylar called after it. What had gotten into their little companion?

Night was falling. Skylar could barely see the ripples in the water as Hop swam toward the stream leading to the Quibbit Cove. But then, slowly, Hop’s outline started to look clearer and clearer.

Skylar looked on in astonishment. Hop was glowing!

They leaped out of the boat and ran to follow Hop into the Cove.

Inside Quibbit Cove, Hop nestled itself in the most comfortable part of the pool. Its strange glow reflected across the shimmering water, the walls, and the eyes of the Quibbits and Quibblets watching from their perches in the nooks and crannies of the cave.

Skylar took in the scene in front of them with wonder. “Hop!” they exclaimed. “Are you trying to evolve?”

As if in reply, Hop threw back its head to finish swallowing the berry it had snatched before. Then it flapped its fins at Skylar, letting out an imploring squeak.

“Still hungry…” Skylar muttered. They pulled yet another berry from their bag and tossed it towards the center of the pool. Hop bounced up to eat it right out of the air. The strange glow under Hop’s skin grew brighter – then even brighter! Something was happening!

“That’s the secret!” Skylar cried, watching with a huge grin. “You needed a lot of food to help you grow up. But it wouldn’t work until you came here to Quibbit Cove!”

The glow grew into a blinding flash – and when the light faded, Skylar could see that Hop had transformed!

Hop let out a delighted croak and fluttered its new wings experimentally. It lifted up into the air, only a little wobbly, and began to fly back to Skylar.

“Hop, you’re amazing!” Skylar threw their arms open to catch Hop in a hug as the newly-evolved Quibbit flew towards them. They spun around, laughing and giving their friend a big squeeze.

“We need to share this knowledge with all of the adventurers who helped us,” Skylar said. “Thanks to them, the ancient mystery of the Quibbit has been solved!”

Evolve Quibblet into Quibbit at Quibbit Cove

With the community’s help, Skylar and Hop have discovered how to evolve Quibblet Minimals into the prismatic pet species, Quibbit!

Adventurers now have the ability to place a Quibblet into Quibbit Cove. Feed the Quibblet lots of berries to give it the energy to transform - it seems higher rarity berries give a greater boost to the evolution process!

Now that the first rush of Quibbspawn is finished hatching, they appear to have returned back to the Uncommon rarity and are no longer Widespread. Silvershade has also announced that they have been seeing less and less Quibblets in the wild, so be sure to tame one for yourself before they disappear from Herding! 

Silvershade and Skylar are confident that Quibbspawn will continue to be available from assorted fishing spots going forward though, so adventurers will always be able to continue hatching their own Quibblets provided they acquire enough eggs.

The Quibbspawn, Quibblets and Quibbits you collect are covered by the Alpha Rollover Policy, and will be returned to you once we perform our post-alpha wipe. (Quibbits will be returned in the form of a Divine Natural Quibbit Figurine)

Furthermore, all participants that contributed to the event at any stage, will receive the Quibbit Event Trophy in the next few days!

Travel to Quibbit Cove to get started!

Quibbit Cove has been released and is the first pet-create feature that does not conform to the "unique pet names" algorithm. You can name your Quibbit any pet name - even one that already exists. We'll be progressively rolling that out to other pet-create locations soon too. Note: "First Edition" functionality will not be applied until the Rollover occurs.

Vespera discovers a New Pet Color: Synthwave

After her adventures at Flamefall Cascades, Vespera spent a few days stocking up her ship with supplies for the voyage back home to Shadow Veil Pass. She decided to leave Skylar to finish their research on the mysterious relationship between the Quibblet and Quibbit, as the community was doing amazing work at unveiling the mysteries of the evolutionary ways of the Quibblet.. and Vespera had existing responsibilities to attend to.

She already knew exactly what she wanted to do once she returned to her Shop, and was excited for the changes she was going to make. As she was making the final preparations, a face she hadn't seen since she arrived at Flamefall appeared;

"Vespera, it brings me great pride to see you preparing for your travels. It gives me nostalgia to see your passion for our world - just like when you were a child." Master Yushe said.

"You know me - I love the thrill of new discoveries!" Vespera chuckled back, as she tied up another barrel of fresh water on the ship deck.

"That's.. what I wanted to talk to you about before you leave.. I.. may have found something you might be interested in..", Master Yushe replied. Vespera dropped the rope to her feet - Yushe now had her full attention. 

River flew down from the mast and perched next to Vespera - she too enjoyed discoveries and was eager to know what Master Yushe might be proposing next.

Master Yushe stepped aside and revealed a mysterious creature stood behind him.

"Wha.. what is that? Is it mech?" Vespera stuttered as she stepped closer - "Wait! The shape -", She stroked the pet's bulbous face "This is a Blepp!?". Vespera could hardly get her words out. "Wh-what.. happened to it?"

Master Yushe went on to explain that he was out training in the wilderness and discovered a large cache of Divine Pet Figurines. Most were normal figurines that could be obtained through already known methods, such as obtaining from Maseric's Figurine store, but there was one type of figurine in the mix that he had never seen before..

As Vespera was examining the Blepp, Master Yushe thrust a large tied up sack into Vespera's hands. "I've already packed it for your travels... but in this sack are Divine Synthwave Blepp Figurines, I have no use for them here and wondered if they might help you to learn more about this technologically magnificent color" he said.

"OH MY, YES!!". Vespera's sudden outburst startled River, and she flew back up to her perch to oversee the conversation.

Vespera tied the sack down to her ship and made a solumn vow to explore this color further in the future. She was sure that the community would rally around her to help her with this discovery.

"I'll take these with me and distribute them to adventurers when I return to Shadow Veil Pass! Together we can figure out if any other pets might be available in this color too! OH! Maybe there already exists a Shimmer Dust? What other species will appear in this color?", at this point Vespera was giddy with excitement and feeling out of breath at all the questions she was asking. 

Master Yushe waited a few seconds for Vespera to calm down, before responding - "Synthwave pets are very rare, and do not appear often! We suspect their origins come from somewhere in Aleriea. If i find any more - I'll be sure to write to you!"

After they said their goodbyes, Vespera set sail and headed towards the sunset. The feeling of adventure was in the air.

Claim your very own Divine Synthwave Blepp Figurine

Vespera has assured us that when she returns back to Shadow Veil Pass, she will distribute these figurines to all adventurers willing to explore the mysteries of this magical new color. 

In order to participate and receive your FREE figurine, all you need to do is read the instructions in this forum post and respond accordingly  before 8PM SST on Tuesday, 20th August 2024

This item will be revealed, and added to the Alpha Rollover Policy when Vespera arrives back home and unpackes her items!

New site banner tracks day and night

The site has been updated with a beautiful new main banner that holds a helpful secret – each hour it changes from day to night!

The new banners will help you keep track of time-based features across Santae. Adventurers now have an easy way to plan their treks across the Flamefall Cascades to the Lava Cave. Those who seek the nest to hatch their Harlowin Eggs should visit the Cave during the day. Those who wish to tame a Grusim of their very own should enter the Cave at night.

In the future, perhaps even more areas across Santae will reveal different secrets during the sunny days and mysterious nights. Happy adventuring!

Herding has been adjusted
