Item Changes and Shop Info

Posted 3 weeks and 4 days ago :: Last edited 3 weeks and 4 days ago by Starfruit
Item Changes and Shop Info
Hello everyone! We have item use changes to most of the breeding items. 
If you have any of the following, you can resell them through the system if you don't want it, trade/gift/donate, or you can keep for a future use in one of the breeding seasons.
 
Explore Market is closed for the time being due to it being unused because explorations have been closed.
However, I am thinking to to one last round of explores somewhere around May. After that, explorations will be closed permanently. This give you the chance to use the items and whichever items that aren't used can be resold through the system. 
 
Kindler has been moved to Elder's Lair in the meantime. The Explore items will be changed to encounter items after closing down exploration, for the future encounter function.

Trait Change Annoucement

Posted 1 month and 5 days ago :: Last edited 1 month and 5 days ago by Starfruit
I have made the following adjustments to the current traits. I hope these changes can serve a better experience for you. Thank you to the ones that have provided feedback.

Trait Change
Remove Coats
These Coats that have been listed have been removed due to being too specific or not used much, and the ones that aren't on the list still exist. The Ribina amount beside it is the number of Ribinas that had the coat. All existing coats will now have no rarity and will pass like a common trait. It will serve a fun breeding purpose, and you will have more design freedom.

Please know that if your Ribina loses its rarity because of the coat changes, PM me so I can compensate you for adding an extra trait matching the rarity of your Ribina.

Wavy - 15 Ribinas
Lines - 47 Ribinas
Jaguar spots - 4 Ribinas
Grittles - 2 Ribinas
Water ripples - 18 Ribinas
Spikes - 4 Ribinas
Veins - 8 Ribinas
Scatter - 17 Ribinas
Droplets - 6 Ribinas
Mask - 28 Ribinas
Swirls - 25 Ribinas
Spots - 41 Ribinas
Glowing Markings - 6 Ribinas
Glowing Sigils - 7 Ribinas
Dragon scales - 4 Ribinas

Rarity Change
All Fabled Traits are removed and moved to Enchanted. Fabled rarity no longer exists.

Demon and Bird Wings - Rare
Horns Curved, Double, Spiral - Rare

Remove Tail Traits
These tail traits serve more like a coat than a tail so they are removed.

Galaxy - 15 Ribinas
Speckled - 30 Ribinas
Striped - 89 Ribinas
Luminance - 2 Ribinas

Mutations
All mutations can be passed. It will be passed based on the rarity.
All Ribina Vessels are allowed one mutation in the rarity or below.
Enchanted Ribina Vessels (Only for GAs) are allowed 3 mutations in the rarity or below.

Fertility
Fertility has been removed and during breeding season, you will be required to get Lime Juice for a successful breeding of the Ribinas. More breeding info and rule change will be out during the June event.

Infertile - 1 Ribina
Low - 7 Ribinas
Medium - 18 Ribinas
High - 6 Ribinas

What's New
  • New Subspecies
 
Iniqus are a recently discovered subspecies in October, and there is limited information available about them. They are characterized by their wolf-like features, darker fur coats, exceptional senses of sight, hearing, and smell, as well as sharp claws and teeth. Unique to this subspecies, they possess ears and slit pupils. While their fur is shorter overall, their mane, ruff, elbow, and hock areas are notably fluffier. Additionally, their tails are shorter and thinner.
 
As you delve into the lore of Farasea, you'll uncover the intriguing story of how the Iniqus came to inhabit this land. The origins of the Iniqus are shrouded in mystery, and during your journey, you'll unravel the circumstances surrounding their creation. Many questions remain unanswered, such as the purpose behind their unique traits and the role they play in the ecosystem of Farasea.
  • Updated Breeding and Age Ups Info
Updated info on breeding and age ups! Read for the changes on the breeding and how you’d be able to breed your Ribinas! Please note that the price of age ups is now 1000 Flitters.

On the website, you can view all the prompts in the prompts section, but you won't be able to get a notification. The section below is the info in #curse-unveiled-story.
There are so many event prompts to do, though you'd have to do them one by one following the days. There is a cooldown of one day unless if you pay 50 Essence to skip the cooldown and move on to the next prompt if the prompt has been revealed.
Submit all the prompts here:

This is the second big event where we explore the lore and history of what happened during the month of October! Even what happens in the present day October. But something sinister lies beyond your grasp, so this is just a warning. The Elder Gods cannot save you. They aren’t anywhere to be seen. Who knows where they are?

Plan some time in October to work on the prompts and explore the lore. I know you’d enjoy it! Be prepared for what’s to come in more then a week.

Ribina Annoucements

Posted 10 months and 2 weeks ago :: Last edited 10 months and 2 weeks ago by Starfruit

Ribina Annoucements
Today is the last day of June. I will open the event storyline to the public without having to do the prompts tomorrow. You can view and do the prompts just for fun, but will not get the rewards from them.
All guest artists will have their role removed, and if they have completed their tasks, they will get their Ribina Vessel tomorrow.

I will put the enchanted Ribina for the event up for a draw to win giveaway because no one can finish up the prompts in one day. Rules and info will be posted in big-ribina-giveaways with an everyone ping later today in the discord. So make sure to join the discord to join the giveaway!

Also, explore will be closed in the month of July due to me and Krystal having a lack of time in July. Get your explores in today as it is the last day before July.

Staff applications are still open! If you want to become a part of the team, make sure to apply and I will check on it as soon as I can!

Thank you!

Interest Check/Preorder Ribina Stickers

Posted 11 months and 1 week ago :: Last edited 11 months and 1 week ago by Starfruit

Hello everyone!
I wanted to start selling Ribina stickers.
This is like a interest check but also an opportunity for preorders.

Here is how this will work:
1) You can react to the message on which Starra emote or item emote you would like to see as a sticker. Or PM me what you would like to have as a sticker. Please do know that I did not draw some of the items, so I would have to ask for permission or make arrangements from the artist who drew the item.
Here is all the items:
https://ribinarescue.com/world/items?page=1
Not every item is added as an emote, so you can PM me which you'd like to see.

2) Every normal sticker will be $2 (as a start up). They will be about 2 inches wide. I can do holographic ones, it will cost $1 extra, which is $3 per holographic sticker. I will send the stickers through an envelope/letter so there is no cost in shipping. Please do know that this envelope/letter is not trackable. If you want trackable mail, it will cost extra depending on how much it usually costs.

  • If you buy 5 stickers (no matter which ones you buy), you will get a random extra sticker as a gift.
  • If you buy 10 stickers, you will get a random extra sticker as a gift and only pay $18 rather then the original $20 price. So technically, $18 for 12 stickers.

3) Follow the schedule on the dates when interest checks/preorders/production/shipping will arrive. After payment, it's just a waiting game.

If you are interested in custom stickers for your Ribinas or characters, let me know. This can also be preordered too, but I do prefer you do order more then 1 sticker to save my sticker paper haha. The more custom stickers you purchase, the lower the cost of each sticker (like how manufacturers does it).

Schedule
From 6/9/23 now - 6/11/23 on 12 PM EST: This is mainly an interest check. You will PM me what you are interested in and how many stickers you are willing to buy. Please make sure that you can actually afford the stickers.
From 6/12/23 8:00 AM EST - 6/18/23 on 7:30 PM EST: This is when preorders start. The people who have shown interest can place their orders and pay for the stickers ahead of time. Other people can preorder them too as production doesn't happen till later on. From 6/19/23 - 6/20/23: Production dates, it shouldn't take long as it's only stickers. I made it two days in case if anything happens. Also I will be making the stickers as I have the materials. But for custom stickers, it would take longer. Possibly 4-5 days is the timeframe.
From 6/21/23 - 6/30/23: This is when the mail will be sent out. Custom stickers should be sent out before the end of June.

Then it's a waiting game. International/non-US citizens will have longer wait times then US citizens. So please keep in mind of where you live and how long the wait time would be.

Thank you all and I can't wait to see these turned as a sticker!

Please message me for the Ribina/item emotes you would like to see as a sticker.
