πŸ“’ Discord Updates πŸ‘Ύ

The #rules channel has been updated! Rules have been re-written for both brevity and clarity. Please re-read them!

We now have a ping role to notify you when the trading center is purged! Go to #role-select if you would like to be notified a day before channel purges AND when they have been purged.

Additionally, we as a team have decided to remove the #helpful-advice channel. We've had concerns about venting and sensitive content in that channel, making it hard to moderate. We know The Cinnaverse is a lot of people's safe space, but we feel this isn't the place for things of that nature. We hope you all understand.

πŸ’» Masterlist Updates πŸ”ˆ

Just like every month, Mac and Hal have been hard at work implementing positive changes to the Lorekeeper! Here's what we've got for you this month:

- IP / Character Import Indicator - A lightbulb will now appear by a Cinna's name on the masterlist to more quickly show you they are inspired by an IP or are a Cinna form of a character. If you need this indicator, please submit to this prompt!

- With the same feature, we will now mark if a Cinna has non-Cinna alternate forms on the masterlist for ease of communication and tracking when trading + selling! It will be disclosed through the light bulb symbol by the Cinna's name and in the description of the Cinna. If a Cinna you own has a form that is not a Cinna, please submit them to this prompt!Β (This also applies if you turn a Cinna into another species, non-species, etc.)

- Trait Subcategories - We felt this was a less clunky way to display our traits after the mass update to Unusual Body we did last month! Nothing to change on your part. Take a look below!

🌌 Trait Clarifications 🌲

Alongside this month's masterlist updates, we wanted to clarify a few traits that we feel have been misinterpreted. This is no one's individual fault! We're just tying up some loose ends. <3< /p>

- Tree Tail has been a retired tail type for quite some time now. However, Kenna has clarified that the tail should haveΒ been dissolved entirely years ago, as it can be 1:1 replicated with Bun Tail. This change will now be reflected on the ML. (To be clear - this is NOT the Conifer Tail! That's not going anywhere, heheh.)

- As we expand our tail traits, we have decided to make Tail Tip its own trait category! This is for the sake of organization and rare tail tips do not need an additional rune for rare fusions.

- In the same vein, Tail Modifiers are now a subcategory, also for the sake of organization.

-Β Wild FaceΒ is getting a little expansion! Spiderbite is being renamed to Buggybite and can also be applied to things like grubs, caterpillars, etc.

- Alongside,Β HamHam will be dissolved and merged into Rodent, and any existing Cinnas with hamster faces will be given the Rodent Wild Face trait.

- UB: Void is applicable when a Cinna has parts of the body that is meant to be a literal window into "the void" or space. This is typically depicted with a very dark color and can have stars, planets, etc. visible.Β The implication here is if you reached your hand into the Cinna, it would go through them and into space, like a portal. We feel that a good handful of Cinnas that have been previously approved with UB: Void do not meet these criteria! As such, the ML team will be re-traiting some Cinnas with UB: Void to ensure they visually follow the terms of the trait. (Additionally, if we previously told you you needed a Rarity Rune to approve a Cinna, and you find we have now removed that trait, please feel free to submit to this prompt with proof to receive compensation for our mistake.)

We are still are going through the masterlist to make sure all Cinnas are up to date with our recent changes!

That's it for this month! Keep cranking out all these lovely Cinnart Fight pieces and enjoy your summer!
