🥕 April Newsletter 🥕
Posted 2 weeks ago :: Last edited 1 week ago by redcrowzHope your spring's been blooming, Cinnaverse! We have some updates for you all!
🤡 BANNER 🤡
Bring in the clowns! This month's banner was illustrated by the lovely Spook , Almondlover , and Endtrails ! Tell them what a great job they did!
We'll raffle for next month's banner shortly!
🍀 prompts + cinna of the month 🍀
Prompts have been refreshed for April! Check them out here!
This month's Cinna of the Month was designed by @almondgames ! Congrats on your new Cinna!
As a reminder, you may choose to draw COTM Cinnas instead of NPCs for the Rarity Prompt!
Our theme this month is Rainy Day 🌧️!
As always, submit designs to THIS gallery for your chance to have your design made official for free!
🥕 new cinnabun npc + PAGE UPDATE 🥕
As elusive as Cinnabuns and BonBons are, what with their visiting only three months out of the year, it seems one friendly face has decided to stick around!
Meet Lariat (he/they), the Cinnaverse's newest official NPC! First seen on the Cinnabun visual guide from last month's update, Lariat is now available to be drawn for the monthly prompts alongside all the other NPCs! You may draw him all year, even after bunny season draws to a close. We hope you love the newest addition the roster!
In addition to the new NPC, admin Buck has started his site-wide rewrites by sprucing up the NPC page! It is now called "Meet the NPCs" and is located in the World tab. Here's a direct link so you can check it out!
🦎 NEW cHAOSI visual guide 🦎
Kenna has whipped up a new ref for Chaosi to match all of our other current references! Check that out below! The species page has also been edited to display the new ref.
Chaosi are FREE to make as of last month's update, so if you haven't already, consider adding a few to your roster!
🌷 SPRING GRATITUDE EVENT 🌷
Want to join in on the Cinnabun fun but don't have the funds for the Bunnalia? Do you just like making gifts and spreading cheer?
Then this event is for you! A fun yearly tradition, the spring gratitude event allows you to make bunnies for your fellow Cinnaverse group members! If you aren't familiar, these events function similarly to Secret Santas, except you are tasked with designing a new Cinna for your partner!
❗ Please be sure to read the rules below before submitting a form to join the Spring Gratitude Event!
- 🌱 Sign ups end Saturday, April 12th 11:59 PM (PST)
- 🌱 Partners are assigned the next day, Sunday, April 13th!
- 🌱 To keep this event quick and simple, you are to create ONE design (NO wereforms or extras).
- 🌱 You only draw a Cinnabun for your partner! No BonBons! This was done only to make things fair. <3
- 🌱 The design must remain a surprise! Do not show WIPS, finished designs nor ask your draw partner what they want!
- 🌱 Failure to finish the design before the deadline will exclude you from the next event.
- 🌱 If you dropped out of the November 2024 Gratitude Event after the soft deadline, or failed to turn in your design entirely, you cannot join this event.
- 🌱 Please follow the anatomy guides shown here when designing: https://cinnaverse.net/gallery/view/2387
- 🌱 You may use 5 rare traits including rare flavors. (Unusual and Savory use up 1 rare trait from the total 5.)

🐇 CINNABUNNALIA 2025 🐇
The annual Cinnabunnalia Gacha is almost here!
Prepare your wallets, because April 20th is our set date! All OAs and admins have been invited to participate in this year's bunnalia, so we're expecting a ton of amazing designs! Rolls will be $55, first-come first-serve, and there will be a swaps period after all rolls go out, just like always.
Keep an eye out for more specific details in the days, hours, etc. approaching the event! We hope to see you in the Event channels for bunny hype!
gOLDEN mEADS NOW IN THE SHOP
For the remainder of bunny season (now --> the June update), Golden Meads will be available to purchase from the shop! Feel free to stock up on as many legendary traits as your wallet can handle!
💻 LOREKEEPER UPDATEs 💻
It's time once again for some banger website updates thanks to the lovely redcrowz ! Let's get this show on the road!
Navigation Bar update
If you haven't already seen it, the navigation bar has been completely revamped! This was at the request of Kenna himself and should hopefully be a lot more intuitive to browse. Take some time to familiarize yourselves with the changes!
If you run into the reloading glitch (the site continuously refreshes itself), you'll need to clear your browser's cache!
Friends feature
Want to make some Cinnafriends? There is now a plus (+) button on user profiles to send them a friend request!
You can check your friends list, as well as the status of any pending friend requests, in the dropdown menu under your username on the far right side of the nav bar!
Blocking feature
Need to block someone on site? There is now a "Block" button on their profile!
Just like in the Discord server, we highly encourage blocking users you do not get along with. This will save both parties, as well as the admin team, a lot of stress in everyday chatting + site usage.
Character Profile Pronouns
Pronouns can now be displayed on profiles! Edit their profile to adjust them accordingly.
That's a wrap on April! Let us know how you're feeling in the chat, and if you have any questions, chuck them at us in #ask-the-staff.

Without further ado, let's get on with it!

January Newsletter
Posted 3 months ago :: Last edited 3 months ago by CoffeebaraHi, Cinnafriends! Happy 2025! Thank you for your patience on this update.
Speaking of the update... there sort of isn't one. Let me explain:
This new year has hit the admin team particularly hard. From cross-country moves, to pregnancies, to changing jobs, to falling ill, to pet troubles, we are, to put it simply, occupied.
While we initially had a sizeable update planned this month, we simply need more time to put it together. The absolute last thing we want to do is rush this one, as it'll affect the entire group moving forward. Nothing scary, we promise! All good things! And those good things will come... to those who wait.
For now, the monthly prompts have been updated, and the Snowball Smash event has come to a close. The Points Shop will open momentarily!
A massive thank you for ringing in the new year Cinna style. Check back on February 10th for a proper monthly update.

Additional details will be available in a corresponding events channel! Keep an eye out this week.
MASTERLIST UPDATES
WEREFORM = LYCAN POTION
As we have streamlined the process of creating and approving alternate forms of Cinnas in the recent years, it's high time wereforms join the ranks to finish out those quality of life updates!
Moving forward, you will no longer see "Wereform (Rare)" on a Cinna's individual trait list. Instead, a Lycan Potion must be used to unlock wereforms. Many people were under the assumption that this was already how it functioned, so hopefully there won't be too drastic of an adjustment period.
Once you use the potion, your Cinna can have as many Wereforms as you'd like!
Wereforms are required to go through standard admin approval in order to be officially recognized on the masterlist.
The used Lycan Potion will be visible in your Cinna's inventory, much like badges, Magic Food Dyes, and Morpho Cookies! Yay, items!
Chaosmites Renamed to Chaosi
Since Chaosmites are canonically the babies of Chaosi, we have updated all the site terminology for clarity!
Trait LIST + LABELLINg CHECKS
To update everyone on the masterlist sweeps, we are still looking over all Cinnas! (We have sooooo many Cinnas, y'all....)
One of our current focuses is making sure IP Inspirations and Character Import Cinnas are properly labelled. If you own any cinnas that are inspired by an IP, or are based on your own original characters, please submit a claim here under "IP-Inspired Cinnas & Non-Cinna Forms". This prompt can also be submitted for cinnas you don't own, as long as you're 100% sure of the IP inspiration / OC import.
What Qualifies As An IP Cinna + OC Import/EXPORT? (from nerdymacandcheese)
The definition has gotten a little muddy, but I wanted to clarify what we've officially decided makes a cinna an IP cinna.
- Any cinna directly inspired by an existing character, song, show, etc.
- Any cinna directly inspired on a moodboard / group of images that's intentionally based on / includes a specific IP.
- Any cinna that includes a specific symbol / logo from an IP. (ie. Pokeball markings)
- Any cinna based on an IP related dessert. (ie. Pokepuffs)
This criteria applies no matter how close your cinna looks to the actual IP. No cinna qualifies as "distinct enough" if the cinna was made to be directly inspired by an IP. A cinna cannot lose its IP label, but it can gain an IP label if a non-IP cinna is redesigned to be directly inspired by an IP. This also applies to OC Imports / Exports. OC Imports / Exports fall into a similar criteria.
- Any cinna directly inspired by your own OC.
- Any cinna meant to be an alt-form of your own OC
- Any cinna that has non-cinna forms. (ie. Human Forms)
Trait ART UPDATES
Updated trait art is still in the works! Here are the newest additions:
We thank Playdeadpossum for all of her hard work, and thank you all for your patience!
💾 Website Updates
IMAGE BLOCKING
A feature has been added where users can black out site images that they do not wish to see, all uses of this image across the site will be censored for them (provided they use the same image URL on the site).
You may censor masterlist images and icons, user icons, items, and traits at the moment.
The widget is disabled by default. Users can enable the widget to block images at will. You can block however many images as you like then completely disable the widget for yourself, keeping the site "clean" of the button while retaining those censors for yourself.
AVATAR/User BORDERs
Another feature has been added that allows for cosmetic borders around your icon!
All borders can be seen here. Borders can be changed in your settings.
Borders will be rewarded through MYO Prompts and Events. More ways to get borders will be announced accordingly!
For November's MYO Prompt's user border reward, you can choose between Pumpkin Sliced and Pumpkin Pied, both drawn by the lovely redcrowz !
There are more borders to come! Expect these to roll out over the course of the next year!
CHAOSI EGGS OFF THE SHOP AND ITEM PROMPT
We're currently reworking Chaosi behind the scenes, so we will be temporarily taking Chaosi Eggs out of the shop and item prompt. You may still submit MYOs on hand or use them in the wishing well, and we will be back soon with news and updates. Check back in soon!
ITEM TRANSFERS
Transferring items is more streamlined: you may now type the user rather than scroll through the list of users to transfer an item.
That is everything for this month! As always, if you have any questions about changes or new additions, you can ask us in #ask-the-staff! Lots of love. ❤️ Take it easy this fall!

DRAW TO ENTER (DTE) - 10/30
If you haven't seen it already, darkvvision and poejangles have done a Poellab for a DTE (Draw to Enter) Raffle!
The requirements are:
FULLBODY — Please make sure your drawing submission is a fullbody of the Cinna! Flat color is acceptable, but we’d love to see shading! Make your entry as simple or detailed as you like, whether that be a simple fullbody or a full scene with character interactions! This will not count as extra points or anything, so no pressure.
One submission per person — Again, we’re not tallying extra points or raffle slots for anyone, so even if you draw 7 pieces, you may only submit 1!
Can't / Don't wanna draw? — We know that some Cinna owners just like collecting pretty little food creatures to look at and/or make stories for, so as an alternative entry, you can write a 500 word story for this Cinna!
We do urge drawings though as all the submissions will go into the gallery of this design for whoever wins the raffle!
Submissions will end on 10/30, and the winner will be announced on 10/31 (Halloween)!
Tysm for participating, and we’re so excited to see what everyone comes up with! Get scribblin’!

HALLOWEEN Adopt-o-rama
We have a sweet and spooky adopt event prepared for you all this month! This is a doozy, so be sure to read all the details to ensure you know when adopts will drop!
The admin team is shaking things up this year with 3 flatsale batches and 3 (or more :eyes:) auctions! These flatsales will include designs from all of the admins, and the auctions are collabs between admins!
Thursday, October 10th - Micro-Nugget Flatsales + Auction
Thursday, October 17th - Chibi Flatsales + Auction
Thursday, October 24th - Full Flatsales + Auction
All of the relevant info for the batch releases, the batches themselves, and the auctions will all take place in correlating Discord channels! (#, #, #, #)
In addition to this calendar of releases, Kenna might have some site-exclusive adopts going up in the month as well... Keep an eye out for those here on the LK!
GUEST ARTIST BREAK
We've been blessed this year with a whole hoarde of amazing guest artists! As you may know, there are more than a few open adopts, which can be found in #official-adopts and on the LK in UnsoldAdopts. To give the market some time to breathe and allow the open Cinnas a better chance to sell, we will be taking a break from GA terms for the remainder of 2024. When we start up again in 2025, there will be new guidelines in place to ensure everyone's adopts get the attention and time they deserve! Thank you all so much for your hard work, and we'll see you in the new year!
💾 Website Updates
We've got a quick one for you all this time, so here's the rundown:
NEW GUIDE PAGE
The site guides have been updated! Check out the sparkly new look of the joint. ;)
MASTERLIST UPDATES
If you didn't see last week, @nerdmacandcheese cross-posted an announcement regarding some masterlist functions! You can read that announcement here!
Claim Game RULE CLARIFICATION
If you are a regular in the Cinnaverse Discord, you may know about our little drawing game called The Claim Game! This is a fairly simple art game commonly found in other species servers, wherein you draw the Cinna of the person who posted above you, then send a reference of your own Cinna for someone else to claim. We have previously been fairly lax about the rules of the game, but as of late have received feedback that some entries have not followed the pinned guidelines. So here's a refresher!
Claim game pieces must be drawn from the hips up (aka halfbody), as well as fully colored. The pieces can be lined in whatever style you use, as long as the other two requirements are met. Keeping this standard of art in the game means no accidentally hurt feelings. Everything should be fair and fun!
In addition to the art rule clarification, keep in mind that you can only claim one Cinna to draw at a time, that it is common courtesy to edit your original post once you've completed your piece, and not to join the thread unless you plan to complete your piece(s) within a reasonable amount of time. The Claim Game should not be used as a mill for "free" art. Thank you all for understanding!
That is everything for this month! As always, if you have any questions about changes or new additions, you can ask us in #ask-the-staff! Lots of love. ❤️ Take it easy this fall!

MASTERLIST UPDATES
Posted 6 months ago :: Last edited 6 months ago by redcrowzwritten by nerdymacandcheese
Hello everyone! As our monthly update approaches, I wanted to come forward with a small update about our masterlist!
Vintage Badge Redemption
As of posting, all vintage badges have been granted to all applicable entries. A cinna may have multiple badges if they lost multiple rarities. Each badge is labeled with the specific trait that has downgraded in rarity. One vintage badge can be redeemed for one rarity rune.
Vintage badges that are labeled with multiple traits (ie. Slashers + Jaws) are errors on my end. I have done my best to correct these error badges, but some may have slipped through. If you have one of these error badges, they can be redeemed for two rarity runes, or however many traits are labeled on the badge.
Similarly, vintage badges may be labeled with multiple tail traits (ie. ZigZag Tail+ Devil Tail). These badges can only be redeemed for one rune, as rare tail fusions only require one rarity rune.
Please note that Chaosmites and Cinnapets have not received vintage badges as these subspecies do not require rarity runes to use rare traits.
Additionally, Cinnadragons and Cinnawyverns have not received vintage badges for horns and wings, as these traits have always been free to use for these subspecies. The vintage badge redemption prompt can be found here under "Item Redemption"!
What's Next? / How Can I Help?
Our next step in this project is identifying any cinnas that have IP Inspirations or are OC Imports. These were largely undocumented up until a few months ago, so any and all help is appreciated as we move forward.
If you own any cinnas that are inspired by an IP, or are based on your own original characters, please submit a claim here under "IP-Inspired Cinnas & Non-Cinna Forms". This prompt can also be submitted for cinnas you don't own, as long as you're 100% sure of the IP inspiration / OC import.
What Qualifies As An IP Cinna / OC Import?
The definition has gotten a little muddy, but I wanted to clarify what we've officially decided makes a cinna an IP cinna.
- Any cinna directly inspired by an existing character, song, show, etc.
- Any cinna directly inspired on a moodboard / group of images that's intentionally based on / includes a specific IP.
- Any cinna that includes a specific symbol / logo from an IP. (ie. Pokeball markings)
- Any cinna based on an IP related dessert. (ie. Pokepuffs)
This criteria applies no matter how close your cinna looks to the actual IP. No cinna qualifies as "distinct enough" if the cinna was made to be directly inspired by an IP. A cinna cannot lose its IP title, but it can gain an IP title if a non-IP cinna is redesigned to be directly inspired by an IP. This also applies to OC Imports / Exports. OC Imports / Exports fall into a similar criteria.
- Any cinna directly inspired by your own OC.
- Any cinna meant to be an alt-form of your own OC
- Any cinna that has non-cinna forms. (ie. Human Forms)
That is all from me! Any questions or concerns with this announcement can be directed to ❓-ask-the-staff, or you can contact nerdymacandcheese directly in DMs! Wishing you all a lovely morning / afternoon / evening / whenever! ❤️
