⁉️Uncover the Arial Attacker Event [LIVE]

Come rally all verified voyagers and set off to search for the assailant who attacked our friend, Daku. While out on a voyage with his brother, Darwin, he was struck and caught off guard while flying through the skies southeast of the island. This creature was quick to strike and quick to flee. We need voyagers trained in flight to help hunt this creature down.

• You can find all details of this event here
• Note: Most of this event will involve the voyaging activity. An adult isomara is required to have the Island Hopper Achievement to voyage. You can learn about earning this achievement and completing Voyaging Verification here.

This event is scheduled to end on September 14th, 2026, at 11:59 PM

Updates

ℹ️ Information Documentation

  • Voyaging
  • Voyaging Verification

🪨 Items & Categories

  • Rocks can now be cracked open with a very slim chance to discover a fossil, gem, or ore item
    • Note: There is a large chance to crack open nothing and destroy the rock
• New Chosen Normal Trait item
  • Due to popular demand, we have added an item that can be used to apply any one non-special trait at the player's choice.
  • This item is only available to purchase from Slay's Concessions at this time
  • Those who have provided a trait suggestion and it became official, as seen in the credits, have been each given one Chosen Normal Trait application, so they may use it either on a trait they suggested or another trait of their choosing. We thank you for your contributions!
• Hair Mousse item can now be used on Isomara to earn the common Filigree trait
• Hair Removal Rub item can now be used on Isomara to remove the common Filigree trait
• Mystery Candy and Ultra Mystery Candies have received a very subtle adjustment to the potential rolled rewards
  • Normal Mystery Candies are less likely to roll a low stat gain or hunger reward and are more likely to reward a new trait or trait change
  • Ultra Mystery Candies are less likely to roll a low stat gain or hunger reward and are more likely to reward a new trait, trait change, or a legendary item

Changes

📝Prompt Rewards

• Added x1 White Pearl as a reward to the following prompts:
  • Dumb Love
  • Voyaging Verification
• Added x1 White Pearl as a reward to the Achievement Turn-In prompt. This now means each achievement earned by a character will reward one white pearl
  • The following achievements earned through the following means do not count towards the x1 white pearl reward:
    • Ally of Goo - Earned through opening a Goom Care Bundle
    • Careful Coexistance - Earned through opening a Memora Care Bundle
    • Dumb Love - Earned through opening a Blepper Care Bundle
    • Queen's Gambit - Earned through pilfering from the queen's cache
• We have retroactively gone through all past approved prompts and granted x1 white pearl for each of the above prompts/each of the achievements earned
• For those who have isomara who were awarded achievements through other means aside from the Achievement Turn-In prompt, please submit a claim so we can grant you white pearls for the earned achievements
