🐲 Character Porting

  • Since the Limited Open Registration on September 7th, we've uploaded user characters.

Click this to read a previous year's comic for a small lore snippet!  ------->

 

The worship of the Abyssals and Havens has subsided greatly over the years, and the celebrations of tasty treats and dances have changed and grown outside of their original purpose. Hallows Month still involves enjoying the sharing of treats, but dancing and dressing have been traded for more games of play. Everyone is here to share the stories of old, bask in the changing of the season, and have some good old fun!

Activity #3 - Bring on the Carnival! (Questline)

Part 1: Winds Brew Wildness

     While windy weather alone won't stop Thyme and the rest of the crew from setting up a carnival, a thunderstorm will. Strange enough, no one has seen any lightning or rainfall, but signs of bolt strikes are present on the grounds, and the wooden stalls and decorations keep being knocked over even though they are wind-proof. 
     Thyme stands around a circle of other Isomara.
     "We need recruits to scout and watch over the grounds and surrounding area at night. I'm not letting another year slip by without a carnival! Get anyone you can to investigate the lightning marks and keep an eye on the weather." Commands Thyme.

     Draw/ Write about investigating the mysterious lightning strike marks and/or watching over the carnival grounds. Keep an eye out for anything bizarre and out of sorts.

Part 2: Swirling Winds & Strange Howls 

     Many Isomara showed up to volunteer in the investigation. Some kept an eye from the sky, while others scoured the grounds for clues. Thyme gathers everyone back into the center of the under-construction carnival. "Thanks to everyone's efforts and assistance, we might have a lead on the strange lightning strikes causing the carnival plans to stall." His words were stern, and the Isomara around him showed excitement at what they had just heard. 

     "While no lightning was seen in the last few nights, one duo of Isomara and their companions reported hearing howling in the area. The howling was mentioned to be louder during nights of strong winds." Murmurs around the circle commenced. Some could be heard.

'Well, of course, howling is heard during the wind. This is what wind does!' shouted one Isomara. 

'I bet it was one of us here just fooling around.' said an older Isomara with a scoff.

     Thymes ears twitched upon hearing these sudden spoken thoughts and added, "No matter the cause, we will find it. I will keep a closer eye on things the next couple of days, even... if it means losing my beauty sleep." His voice got quieter as he said that, almost as if he regretted making the self-promise as soon as the words left his mouth. He gulps in some air and returns to his previous composure. "Some animals might be making a ruckus during these windy nights. We will set up the stalls again, as well as some traps. Can all of you help us gather the materials to rebuild the broken stalls and also help in laying the traps?"

This part has two solutions. You may pick either one:

    1. Supply x5 Wood or Driftwood (Can be a combination), x13 Sticks, x1 Cloth or Fabric, x1 Simple Dye, x2 String or Vines (Can be a combination), and x18 Rocks
    2. Include a drawing or story about setting traps or helping build the carnival game booths/ stalls. It must also include Thyme.
  • Submit Part 2 Prompt Here
    • You can either submit art/lit or supply the exact amount of materials.
    • If supplying the materials when submitting the prompt under comments, mention that or add all the items listed above in the Add-Ons section.
Part 3: Ferocious Friction

     As everyone returned to the campground that following morning, only a few things were noticed to have been knocked over. Whimpering accompanied by tiny howls is heard coming from a triggered trap. The wooden trap laid out last night was now covered in stray foliage and a fallen sheet. As you approach, you notice marks of lightning strikes on the ground, making their way back to the center of the trap's location. You and the other crowding proceed closer with more caution.

     "Let me help. If it's a wild predator, you could be in danger." Thyme states with a paw, separating you and the trap. Having an experienced tamer reassures you. 

     Thyme gently removes the debris of leaves, sticks, and other plant matter. Then you grab one side of the sheet, and Thyme grips the other. You toss the sheet to the side, letting the light wind carry it a few paws length away. In the trap is a tiny young critter. Hunched, cowering in the wooden cage's center, was the creator of the howls. A four-legged furry critter with dark fur. It stops howling for a second and begins to shake uncontrollably. Its fur was starting to lift from the building friction until suddenly! <a href=

ZAP! 

     The built-up static released itself outward and into the ground, leaving a darkened mark upon the earth. Thyme, yourself, and the others are lightly shocked enough to startle and back up. 

  Draw/ Write about calming the creature down. Is there something you can say or give to it? Please keep it in the trap/cage, though. We wouldn't want it to attack anyone out of fear.

Part 4: A Baby Bahrū [Questline Conclusion]
 

     "Whoo. That lil guy sure gave us a startle. Must have gotten lost or chased out of the forest by a memic. It's a bahrū, probably no older than three new moons. I'm impressed you got it to calm down." Thyme begins to look at the critter and think.

     "I've never tamed one, so you should consider taking it. I've got my claws full with the other critters at the tavern anyway." he flips his hair with a smirk. "Of course, I need to take it with me for now and get it checked out. Make sure it's healthy. Come to my tavern later to pick them up, alright?"

With that, Thyme claps his paws and ushers everyone to start setting up the carnival again while he and another couple Isomara, take the caged critter to the Taming Tavern.

 

With that, the Hallows Carnival is up and running. There are various games of skill and luck to play.

Bahrū are now available to purchase at Thyme's Taming Tavern. There is a limit of 1 purchase per user. Those with an Ally Adoption Slip can adopt the Bahru free of charge.

Updates, Changes, & Fixes since Update 7.2. This journal outlines additions and changes to the Isomara Island ARPG since the previous update. You may be familiar with some of the topics below. At times we announce new features right away in the Discord, but we want to ensure the entire community knows the latest news and fixes.

Website Updates

Updates

✏️ Make-Your-Own (MYO) Slots

MYO slots have been added to the site and are fully functional. Players can purchase MYO slots from either the MYO Shop (for in-real-life currency) or Slay's Concessions (for Seashells).

  • Notes:
    • MYO slots have been successfully ported from DeviantArt to here (only if the owner has an account on-site). Please submit a claim if you are still missing a MYO slot from the ones listed here.
    • If you had owned a MYO slot with any +# Uncommon/Rare traits your MYO slot was upgraded to an ultra slot.
    • If you had owned a MYO slot with any +# Special traits you were given that number of Chosen Special Trait items.
    • Upgrading MYO slots is not available at this time. This will be added in the next update.
    • Memora MYO slots are not available at this time. This will be added in the next update.
  • Changes:
    • MYO slots will not expire. Previously on DeviantArt MYO Slots would expire after 6 months - 1 year. We haven't enforced this for years and renewed all slots, and we want to make players fully aware of this.
    • Ultra Uncommon Standard Isomara MYO slot has increased from $10 (2000Seashells) to $12 (2,400Seashells)
    • UItra Rare Standard Iso MYO slot has increased from $15 (3,000Seashells) to $16 (3,200Seashells)
    • Common Deustrum MYO slot has increased from $7 (1,400Seashells) to $8 (1,600Seashells)
    • Uncommon Deustrum MYO slot has increased from $10 (2,000Seashells) to $12 (2,400Seashells)
    • Rare Deustrum MYO slot has increased from $15 (3,000Seashells) to $16 (3,200Seashells)
    • Chosen Special Trait add-on price reduced from $5 (1,000Seashells) to $3 (600Seashells)
    • Removed: "Patreon Pledgers get 50% off all MYOs whether buying with Points, PayPal, or Seashells!" - This is just for MYO slot purchases, and will remain on normal adopt sales

⚙️ Account Settings

  • Online Visibility - We've implemented an online / last-seen player functionality that will allow others to see when you are online.
    • For players who want to be a little mysterious, they can set themselves to invisible through the player account settings page. Setting yourself to invisible no longer displays whether you are online or your last online status. 

💝 Referral Rewards

  • When registering for an account there is now a referred by field that upcoming players can use to list a current player. Players will receive rewards when they are referred. You can see the list of referral rewards here.

 


Changes

🏝️Home Page UI
The homepage has received a slight uplift for both logged-in and guest users.

  • Added more quick link buttons for useful information such as island inhabitants, in-game currency, MYO info, and more.
  • Embedded our Bluesky social feed
  • Moved the navigation bar to the top of the screen and froze it. This allows players constant visibility on currency balances on every page.

🦤 Species Traits

  • Previously Bleppers with spikes/horns were listed to have the Spikes body trait which is a trait meant for only goom and was listed with a rare rarity. This was inaccurate as spikes/horns on bleppers are uncommon. We have made a proper new body trait for bleppers called horns with an uncommon rarity. All bleppers with the spikes body trait now have the correct horns body trait.
  • Renamed Blepper Horns crest trait to Plumicorns crest trait to avoid confusion with the new blepper horns trait

🫧 Miscellaneous

 


🛠️Fixes
  • Users will no longer see a report user button on their own profile pages
  • Birthday Publicity can now be updated in a player account Settings
  • Rainbow site theme bled into the Dark Mode theme

  • Tweaked FAQ and Beginner's Guide MYO links and information

🐛Known Bugs

New issues on our radar:

  • The nav bar will be unresponsive on smaller window screens including mobile

Open Regisitration was a Bumpy Success!

Posted 2 months and 1 week ago :: Last edited 2 months and 1 week ago by NPC
Our first open registration was Bumpy, but overall a success!

60 players registered for an account, many returning faces and some new ones! We look forward to everyone's participation and we hope you look forward to our next event, the annual Hallows Extravaganza.

Everyone who joined during our limited time open registration or earlier has been given their Sand Dollar signup bonus.
For those who missed out on the limited-time open registration, you can still get an invite key to join by supporting us with a $10+ tier. And for those who joined you are still able to support us to receive supporter rewards. You can always gift your invite key to a friend.

We will be prioritizing porting over items and MYO slots first, then chararacters. Characters take time to upload as we have to search through nearly 10 years of files and images to locate the original high-resolution, background free files. There may be some characters which we do not have the source image for, but will do out best to clean up and upload the highest resolution image we can.

Thank you for your support and welcome to Isomara Island!

🍖 Edible Items Version 1.0

Most edible items can now be eaten from a player's inventory! Items with the small pink tag labeled "Consumable" can be eaten by selecting the item in your inventory and choosing which of your Isomara to feed it to. Once fed the Isomara's hunger meter will rise or fall depending on the item.

    • Edible items with other multiple effects such as curing ailments, raising stats, and granting traits will still need to be fed using the Item Consumption Forums. We need more time to implement those features, but now most items can be fed to Isomara instantly!
    • If you see any issues when using consumable items please submit a bug report with a description of what items and isomara were involved.
    • eattutorial.gif

🐈 Companion Care Drops

 


Changes

🪽Stat Capacity

  • All stats have received a maximum capacity limit. Never before has there been a hard set-in-stone limit to the amount of fight, flight, and hunger stat points an Isomara can have, but as we implement more features to the website there are times when we need to limit data and work within the bounds of some backend limitations. With the addition of Edible Items V1, we need to implement a cap on hunger and the other two stats. There will be ways to increase this cap in the future.
  • Fight and Flight are capped at 500 each
  • Hunger has been capped at 200

🐛Known Bugs

You can find the full list of known issues here. These are issues that have been reported by players or noted by staff and have not been resolved yet but are on our radar.

    • Low priority bug: staff will manually roll an Isomara if the site pulls a non-Isomara species for the IOM for the time being
  • Sigils are placed in the character achievement basket when earned. The plan is to separate sigils into their own tab on character master list pages.
  • Critter images will sometimes overlap on character profile pages

  • Chance of multiple stamina to be used when playing Tide Pools or Queen's Cache games
