:deeroml: Lorekeeper News

Our website is undergoing some updates as we get ready for the new year. You may notice some fleshed out and condensed species pages, lore tidbits, and world details you can use in your stories and character designs. Along these additions and small formatting updates, we have fixed up our FAQ, and are curently working on reflecting these changes on our dA group page. We're changing up some of the featured art, and adding new drawings for old and recent items. We'll keep you posted on these tiny asset changes as they come. 

CHANGELOG

Major

Minor

  • News Widget
  • Updates to Raffles
  • Updates to the MYO/Redesign Approval Pages
  • Updates to the Universal Trait Index
  • Prize Codes
  • Small Bug fixes

More to come! As always, Lexi's open to new website suggestions!

:hearteyes: Theme of the Month

The Theme of the Month Cinna that is chosen as a showcase by the end of each cycle will be validated free on the Masterlist, no slot or traits needed!
This months theme for participation is Coziest Comfort ! We got one entry last month, and they'll be up for free raffle soon! 🍎

💸 Discord advertising/trading channel updates

 The advertising channels have been updated. ⁠💸-trading-center + ⁠🎨-commission-ads will be purged every Sunday at 12pm CET (starting next Sunday) rather than each post being deleted after sitting for 7 days. ⁠🍞-market-chat + ⁠💵-trading-chat are also to be archived. General channels can be used to comment on adopts and listings, but not to be treated as replacements for the market chat and trading chat.

We encourage usage of the site, TH or Discord DMs for your methods of contact in regards to ads, as much overposting and even double bumping has occurred. These changes are also to relieve stress on the admin end. We hope you understand!

Let us know if you have any questions or concerns, we're happy to help! And we hope you enjoy the new prompts!

🕸️ 🎃 Halloween CinnAdvent 2023 🦇 👻

Posted 1 year ago :: Last edited 1 year ago by redcrowz

Good timezone, Cinnafriends! Today we'd like to announce our October event, which will be... drumroll... 🥁

advent.png?ex=65162913&is=6514d793&hm=d9292bcd7eb172411a7ac002aa923295a058b28b891283145dec2523b8f5b7bb&

🕸️ 🎃 Halloween CinnAdvent 2023! 🦇 👻

How will this event work?

Throughout the entire month of October, one adopt will be revealed per day. These Cinnas will each be Raffle to Adopt (RTA), giving everyone a chance to enter to nab the hallowed Cinna of their dreams! All designs will be Halloween-inspired, and some may even be truly spooky. (Common triggers + gore will either be avoided or spoilered.) All of our Admins and Guest Artists have been given the opportunity to work on this advent, so expect a wonderful variety of designs!

(For those unfamiliar with RTAs: Each day, one design is raffled. The winner of that day's raffle will pay for the Cinna! There is no entry/ticket fee. You must have the full purchasing amount on hand that day should you be rolled as the winner.)

Raffles will be done IN OUR DISCORD ONLY!

 
Pricing

The prices and rarities of these Advent designs will increase as the month goes on, building up until Halloween, when things get really exciting!
Oct. 1st-10th: $55
Oct. 11th-20th: $65
Oct. 21st-31st: $75

Special Advent Badge

All of the Cinnas revealed during this advent calendar will be given a special badge on the Lorekeeper to celebrate their festivity!

As always, if you have any questions about the event, feel free to ask in ⁠❓-ask-the-staff !

See you spooky sillies soon! 🌒 🐺

from Discord, written by darkvvision

Hello Cinnafriends, we’re wishing you a safe and joyful Summer! We have some things you might enjoy for July. Your anonymous feedback really helped us see the species and community from another angle, and you guys couldn’t be more helpful [and polite - we really appreciate it!]. We’re still working on some of the larger stuff you guys wanted to see changed or added, so we hope you check in next month [or sooner!] for more news!

SAVORY GACHA - JULY 29th

Keep an eye out for more details - such as the specific time - as we get closer!

Rolls are $55 each, and made by all of our Cinnartists!

Item Updates & Changes

We have some Item Updates that we hope bring some positive quality of life changes, even if by a little. These changes should result in slightly easier navigation on our site, and reduced effort for processing for designs.

  • We will be renaming Magic Carrot to Cinnabunny MYO Slot for convenience! It can be found easier on site dropdowns and searches.
  • The few specific Legendary traits [cerberus, chimera, triple tail] will be replaced with the Golden Mead item on our site. The Golden Mead item can be used to add any Restricted trait [sans Diamond Tail] to a Cinna. If you have these items, feel free to submit an Item Redemption Prompt or Inventory Prompt to swap it for a Golden Mead :mead:
  • The Endless Summer Event Idols will also be replaced/removed – as rare traits, they can be used any time with a Rarity Rune. They will still work the same if they are in your inventory, and may be swapped by us if they are not used up. If you have these items, feel free to submit an Item Redemption Prompt or Inventory Prompt to swap it for a Rarity Rune.
  • Cinnawyverns and Cinnadragons will have one combined MYO Slot, where, if obtained, you would be able to choose which species you’d like to add to the Masterlist. It does not contain two MYOs, or one of each.
  • We will be retiring the Void Cola item and Voidal Prompt. These processes will be done by request. A cooldown still applies for voiding and legitimizing Cinnas so it is not done too frequently.
    We have an optional MYO prompt this month where you can show some love to our veteran Vanta, and earn some goodies for your love and thanks. To anyone with a Void Cola in your inventory, you may redeem it for a $10 or below item via the Item Redemption prompt!
  • We’ve removed the shop items thread in ⁠#💰-shop , and link directly to all of our stores for easy access.

IP Badge Update

We are changing the IP Badge into the Media Badge, to cover a wider range of media inspiration. This should hopefully clear up some confusion on a handful of designs. If you have any questions, concerns, or requests, please don’t hesitate to let a mod know!

Pound Guest Artists

Our next round of Pound Guest Artists has been rolled! Please welcome dazai , GAMERSTYLE73 , SpaceOreosSoftFrog , we can’t wait to see your take on some of the Cinnas in our pound!

Prompts

  • Our ⁠MYO Prompts have updated! You only need to do two MYO Prompts to earn a MYO + 1 Rare trait, instead of three. While we don’t require a background, we will request some shading on these submissions. There will also be a wider variety of prompts to choose from including lore, scenes, worldbuilding, extra forms, and gift art!

  • I wanted to personally let everyone know that we LOVE your prompt art so much, it is a genuine pleasure to browse the latest submissions for laughs, incredible pieces, and wonderful oc interactions. You guys rock, I would comment on every single one if I could! Thank you for participating and bringing me so many smiles <3333 I especially love all of the tail evolution sheets, hilarious Cinbun stickers, and gaming consoles!! Love you guys ❤️ -fever

PROMPT SUBMISSIONS

We can’t thank you enough for your asset submissions during last month’s prompt! We’ve picked several we really enjoy and will happily implement to the site!

Honorable Mentions

We’ll be adding a nice handful of these and some of the stickers you guys submitted last couple months! Keep an eye out for them, there’s some wonderful pieces! If you have any questions or concerns, please let me know!

EVENT

A reminder that our event CinnArt Fight is happening! Please remember to upload to this Gallery https://cinnaverse.net/gallery/22

We want your Cinna attacks ❤️

RULE CHECK

We've made a small clarification to our Introductions section that emphasises the need for a valid semi-active social media account for verification [Deviantart, Toyhouse, Twitter, etc]

Keep an eye out for more announcements this month [including a new visual Redesign Guide & process, perks for Gacha Swaps, and more!] as we roll out more of your suggestions, keep em coming! Love you https://forms.gle/jBRAmzgvnMBk3Fa9A

Leave more feedback here or in our dedicated channel ⁠

⁠#⭐-feedback-suggestions⁠

ADHD Vers 🧠💖

  • Magic Carrot renamed > Cinnabunny MYO
  • LK Items for Legendary Traits replaced > Golden Mead

🧛 Cinnart Fight 2023 🐺

Posted 1 year ago :: Last edited 1 year ago by redcrowz

Hey Cinnanation!

It seems like a strange phenomenon has swept over all of the species this July...

🧛 🌙 🐺

In other words...

Cinnart Fight 2023 will begin today!

This event is meant to work alongside the official Art Fight if you decide to participate in it, but it's not mandatory! We wanted to give you guys something while Art Fight is on a good amount of people's minds.

(To people who were in the Chaosma Battle Event last year, this event functions very much like that!)

Hope you guys enjoy, and happy battling!

🧛 🌙 🐺

It was a dark and stormy night...

A bright full moon looms in the sky as a swarm of bats squeak in the air as they flap their wings across the world. A strange phenomenon appears to have swept the Cinnaverse- Cinnas have become more monstrous in nature, some bearing sharp needle-like fangs, some bearing a more wolf-like form like none other.

A piercing hiss and a bellowing howl clash against each other as swarms of Cinnas begin to come together.

Come together... for battle.

cinnartfight_2023.png

🧛 VAMPINNAS VS. WERECINNAS - CINNART FIGHT 2023 🐺

JULY 1ST - 31ST 2023

The Jist:

Participants are split into two teams. Players "attack" people of the opposing team by making art of Cinnas you choose belonging to members of the other team. You are free to use almost any style. Your team receives points based on what you create for the other team with each attack.

The artist that receives the attack can then counter that attack by drawing a Cinna belonging to the person who attacked them, or pay it forward by attacking a different person on the other team.

At the end of the month, the team with the greater score wins.

But remember, while there are point scores, the real goal is to celebrate characters with your fellow artists.
Art Fight is about giving and receiving amazing art. 

Requirements:

  • ⭐ You are fighting for either the side of Vampires (Vampinnas) or Werewolves (Werecinnas), much like Art Fight 2023! Participation of the actual Art Fight is not mandatory but preferred. Pick your team here and/or indicate it somewhere on your profile.
  • ⭐ You must draw gift art of someone else's Cinna, preferably on the team you are against but friendly fire is allowed.
  • ⭐ Any finish, any medium, any size is allowed as long as you created it.
  • ⭐ Pieces will be valued by the official Art Fight's point system.
  • ⭐ Your entries will be counted at the end of the event and you will be given an appropriate amount of prizes for your effort. The winning team will get a bonus reward.
  • 🌟 Rewards for this event are a secret and will be revealed at the end via an update.

Notes:

  • Unfortunately, we do not have the means to autobalance teams. We do encourage you to keep the teams balanced when possible.
  • Switching teams in the middle of the event is not allowed. If we catch you doing this without switching back (in case of an accident), you will not be able to participate from the next Cinnaverse event. You may join whenever in the event, however.
  • If you have any questions, head to ⁠ask the staff!

UPLOAD SUBMISSIONS HERE

Requirements upon uploading:

  • Mark the art with the depicted Cinna(s) and who it is for in the Characters and Other Participants sections respectfully.
  • If participating in Art Fight, link the upload to Art Fight in the description box alongside the calculated point total for the piece according to Art Fight AND the team you, the artist, are on.
  • For people not participating in the official Art Fight this year, you may show a screenshot of the calculated point total rather than the link to the upload. You may have a another member of the server assist you if you happen to not have an AF account.

Description Example:

[link to Art Fight upload OR pasted screenshot of the point calculation]
Total Points: 75
Artist Team: Vampinna

TL;DR:
Appoint yourself to a team, draw a Cinna from the other team, get points to win and get rewards!

🎆 🎇 🎆

Small note about Wing and Seraph traits

Earlier this month we had some discussion about the two wing-related traits in our artillery, and users expressed some confusion over their function or when they’re appropriate to use, so we thought we’d clear the air a little!
These traits are not changing, as we found it a necessary split between having a standard pair of back-wings compared to wings being in an odd or unusual place, or there being more than one pair, similar to Devourer and Beholder.
Seraph can be used to place wings anywhere and more than one pair, but if theres a pair of wings where they’re typically found, it will count as the regular Wings trait regardless of any Seraph traits. We hope that helps you understand our process!

  • Chaosmite Eggs have been recovered from continued excavation of Chaosma’s den. They will be available in the Item Prompt from now until August 10th! They will also be in our Cinnaverse and Points shop!

🕸️ CINNACENTRAL RETIREMENT 🕸️

  • Our Cinna Central site is set to expire very soon, please let us know if you have any questions, concerns, or trouble navigating our new Lorekeeper or its shop, we’re more than happy to make your transition smooth and comfortable! Please also reach out if you find outdated links, defunct sites, or old lists, so we can remove them ^^

:ip: IP-INSPIRED CINNA DESIGNS :ip:

  • We are currently looking through all Cinnas and determining if they are inspired by Intellectual Property, so that we may give it a special badge. This badge lets others know if said Cinna is inspired by particular media, which they might want to avoid or be comfortable with owning if they are UFS.
  • If you have Cinnas you would like us to review and gift the badge to, please submit a prompt here! https://cinnaverse.net/prompts/prompts?name=inspired&prompt_category_id=none&sort=category  
  • Your Cinna may be given the badge if they are determined to be too close to an IP. While we do our best to recognize and deter people from making 1:1 media inspired Cinnas for DMCA reasons, we respect the use of these properties for inspiration and the community’s right to know.
  • Just a little note regarding IP Cinnas, we strongly recommend you name them something other than who or what they’re based on, depending on resemblance to the material.
  • Toyhouse will remove characters they deem to be stolen/copied and names can be dead giveaways for designs that would otherwise pass on their own.

🔁 POUND GUEST ARTISTS 🔁 

:dance: ADMIN MAC RETURN :dance:

 ⭐️ STARBOARD ⭐️

  • We will be adding a Starboard chat for users to go wild with pins! Let us know if you have any questions or concerns with its purpose or function!

🚀 THE ENIGMA TAIL 🚀

  • The King of Tails has granted us a most magnificent gift this May. Some of you may remember our short-lived subreddit, where the King of Tails kindly requested to see some new additions to our roster. Many great tails were chosen that day that remain favorites, and with his return has come the greatest opportunity this species has ever seen!

🌟 The Enigma Tail

Enigma tail is the be-all-end-all of Cinna tail freedom and creation. There may still be contests, votes, and inductions to the classic tail roster, but the Enigma tail will allow for an infinite amount of creations canon to the cinnaverse. Buy using a 🌟 Legendary trait for this tail, your “unofficial” tail can be accepted on any Cinna after review.

Concepts we will not accept:
- nsfw/otherwise offensive designs
- diamond, valknut
- feasible/unexplored fusions of existing tails [existing fused with new concepts is fine]
- joke tails may absolutely be accepted if they follow the design principle

The design philosophy of Cinnas is still being explored, but what makes a Cinna tail must be apparent to be accepted:
- large, at least a quarter to half the size of the Cinna itself
- uniform thickness with minor tapering at the tip
- inward spiral applies to almost all tails
- nickname shape easily discerned [no formless blobs. unless you really want. Needs appropriate name]
- easily shown or implied anchor point[s]
- For most spiral tails, multiple coils [at least x3]

All tails subject to review, naming of your Enigma tail is optional but encouraged. All Enigma Tails on masterlist will be listed as such however, unless it becomes a recognized tail.

By making this tail and submitting it for approval, you consent to letting others explore your concept [personal consent/credits encouraged, not required]

  • This item will be available this month in our shop and then disappear. It will make reappearances in the shops for special occasions! It is $25/2500 dA points
