Happy New Year, Gaians! Can you believe it's 2015 already? Where are our jetpacks and hoverboards? Why are we still driving our own cars, and turning on our own showers, even when the bathroom floor is bitterly cold? I'm in the market for something a bit more automated, so it's understandable when I say that this is totally not the future I was hoping for. Luckily, there is a silver lining to all this: The new arrivals waiting for you in La Victoire are the first ones of 2015, and they're kicking it off just right! Take a look:

The FIRST EVER Sealed Letters for the fresh and shiny new year of 2015 have just arrived! I was up all night baking in preparation.

01 Light some Golden Candles for astounding rewards!
Hiya Gaians! Oh boy: have I got the chance for you! Chance item, actually. Well...to be more specific, multiple chance items. You get what I'm saying, right? I know it's a little unclear, but here's the gist: I've got somethin' great in the works!

Just light a little flame atop the Tiny Golden Candle. As it burns down, you'll find treasures in the gooey wax! In fact, you could reveal up to one trillion gold with just the smallest candle! Not to mention all the fabulous GoFusion Charms waiting to be found!

The Tiny Golden Candle is great, but the Golden Candle is even better! More prizes, more fun, right? If you're looking for the biggest payout of them all, you'll want to get your hands on the amazing new Large Golden Candle!

Check them all out today by visiting La Victoire. Be sneaky so that Fafnir doesn't follow you, though. He might huff and puff and light all our candles at once. That's just a fire hazard in the making! See you soon!

01 Get a headstart on January's CI with Advance Chance!
Why, a most wondrous happening occurred today, Gaians! No surprise I daresay, seeing as how mystical this strangely enduring winter has been, but wondrous nonetheless! I was on a very routine visit to a very routine grocery store, as I do, well, routinely, and I saw on the shelves something quite peculiar. It was neither bread, nor milk, nor jelly, nor eggs, nor any of the other perfectly average things I was expecting to find. It was actually a map of sorts! It was on the back of a box of sugary cereal of course, but it appealed to my sense of adventure as readily as any finely constructed saga might! I followed the outlined path out of the store, back to my car, and all the way home. It was a strangely specific map, truly. It led to right under my pillow. I tore it straight from my bed and found myself eye to eye with an amazing new mystery to unravel! Behold:

What will the next Chance Item be? Nobody is quite sure, but you’ll get the first crack at it with January's Advance Chance! On the day of the next CI release, you’ll be able to open your bundle and start reaping the rewards of your CIs hours before they’re released to the general public, so you can start listing items on the Marketplace when hardly anyone has their hands on them yet.

Setting aside my very obvious concern about someone sneaking such things into my very home undetected, I must say that I'm impressed! I've stashed my new treasure at La Victoire for your purchasing pleasure. Stop in and get your own!

Visit La Victoire!

01 January 2015 Chance Pass now available!
The game is afoot, Gaians! And if you're anything like me, you enjoy a little mystery in your life. The suspense! The anticipation! The whodunit! Well, okay -- that last one isn't really relevant to what I'm talking about today, but still. Mysteries are fabulous! There's no fun in revealing your hand early, after all. Besides, you know the saying: good things come to those who wait. And that's never been truer than it is today, with the introduction a fabulous new mystery box!

The January 2015 Chance Pass may seem empty now, but as January trundles along you'll reap more and more rewards from it! This fantastic Chance Pass comes loaded with a variety of different boxes, all of them mysteriously sealed. Each Sealed Box contains a five pack of a Chance Item that will be released in January -- this includes our regular CI, our mini CIs, and even our animated CIs! The Chance Pass also includes the enigmatic January 2015 Golden Sealed Box, a collection of exclusive recolors that opens the last day of January! As each CI is released, your box will unseal itself and the mystery will be revealed to you! In fact, one of this month's Sealed Boxes is ready to be opened already! This incredible deal will be in the shop until January 15th, 9:59 AM PST. We hope to see you in the shop soon!

02 Now in La Victoire: Asena's Children, and TONS of new finds!
Heya, Gaians! You may not know this, but I'm sort of the collecting type! It's like everything that comes my way has so much potential to shine alongside a huge assortment of similar items, so many that maybe one day I'll be in some world record book for having 'em! That's why I keep absolutely everything. Things I make, things I buy, and especially things I find. Plants? Rocks? Garbage? The stuff Cygnus leaves around the house during the day? All mine! And treasures, nonetheless! In fact, take a look at some of my latest scavenges:

-

Now wait, Gaians! Before you cry "kidnap" let me just mention that the darling Asena's Children are just here visiting! Y'see, the energetic twins Tuwu and Ashina enjoy exploring the deep woods looking for fun and the occasional spot of trouble. Today, they've stopped in to take a look at my collection-- not join it!

But you can definitely stop by to meet and greet these cuties by visiting La Victoire before the children depart on January 6th at 9:59 AM PST or as soon as they sell out!

-

Black Leapi Sheepie is a cute little lamb of a most darling nature! Y'know, they usually say that the black sheep is the one who doesn't fit in. You know, the one who's just cut from a different (usually way cooler) cloth. That's why I invited this rarity to hang around the shop. I was expecting mischief and adventure and other un-sheeply things, but I guess the lamb kingdom has become a lot more inclusive as of late-- Black Leapi Sheepie is just as sweet and stylish as the rest!

Stop by La Victoire to scratch this adorable fluffball's head before it leaves the shop for finer pastures on January 6th at 9:59 AM PST or as soon as it sells out!

-

The Wild Punk Bundle is completely unprecedented! Check out all that hardcore and flashy style straight from the kickin-est venues around! If you can rock it with the best, you'll want to get your hands on this bundle for the amazing Rock Demon, the new Butterfly's Regret, and [Animal] Kana the Tomcat, and the totally rad exclusives: Jessi the Ferret and Feretto March! Pretty sweet, right?

Stop by La Victoire to get one of the amazing Wild Punk Bundles for yourself! You can purchase Butterfly's Regret and [Animal] Kana the Tomcat separately, but you'll be missing out on one sweet deal! Take advantage of this amazing bundle before it's gone on January 6th at 9:59 AM PST!

-

The New Year Resolution Wish Bundle is an amazing feat of awesomeness! It contains a delightful TEN copies of the inspirational new chance item, New Year Resolution, along with the totally nifty exclusive item: O'holy Wish! Gorgeous, am I right?

Open up my New Year Resolution for a shot at the celebratory new Lisa the Baby Alpaca, Gregory the Baby Giraffe, Starlight Carouser, Toast to You, Astra: Celebration Fireworks, Momo the Momonga, or even the lovely and impressive O'holy Blessing! Join the celebration by picking up your own New Year Resolution Wish Bundle and trying your luck! This amazing bundle will only be in the shop until January 6th at 9:59 AM PST or until it sells out-- whichever comes first!

That's all for this little tour, folks. How'd you like my prized posessions? Sure, they're only on display temporarily, but aren't they just the most amazing things you've ever laid eyes on? I can't imagine anything more awesome! Except maybe a whole field of catnip. But don't get me started on the wonders of a good crop of 'nip. There's a reason that sly temptress of a salad ingredient isn't in my current collection. I go crazy for the stuff! So crazy that I forget to restock the shop with amazing new releases! Speaking of which, you can stop by La Victoire to snag any of the wonderful items I've shared with you today. See you soon!

02 Pop open a Kaleidoscope Chest for fabulous rewards!
Woah, Gaians. Have you ever just wanted to capture the entire rainbow and bounce it back and forth in a little box until it fills up completely with pure, beautiful colors? I know that's just some kind of strange dream, or maybe the gimmick of a really indie music video, but I always wish it were possible to just capture pristine and gorgeous vibrant colors and just unleash them whenever I want. I actually gave it a shot and made a new box full of lovely hues and shades, but instead of stuffing it with different lights and effects, I had to make due with what I had and filled it with tons of amazing items!

-

Opening up a Kaleidoscope Chest will score you one of my amazing brilliantly colored favorites from the past, like Beyond Rose, Checkmate Inverse, Band of Bremen Redux, [Animal] Bat To School, or the lovely Rosamund's Corruption! Not only that, but deep in these shifting flashes of shimmering color lurk some fabulous bundles like the wonderful Strawberry Social Bundle, Guilty Thrall Bundle, Quirky Dream Bundle, Panda Bundle, or even the astounding Princess of the World Super Bundle!

Stop by La Victoire to get your own Kaleidoscope Chest to try your luck! I'll keep working on my rainbow capturing theories and get back to you on that front in the future, when technology has caught up to the whims of an inspired Kitten Star! See you soon!

02 The Super Special Post-Holidays Community Update!
Hello Gaians! It's been quite a while hasn't it? I had some holiday time for myself and I spent it in style. But enough about me, the media spends enough time on celebrity antics, doesn't it? Today's extra massive report is bursting at the seams with the latest Avatar Arena victors, and an extra special look at the generosity and fun that happens when some of Gaia's largest and most passionate organizations come together to create some fun. Let's get started!

-

Last week's amazing Avatar Arena Winners were The Iegend of ZeIda (that's a familiar name!) for an amazing Cosplay Arena entry entitled Wii-u Link, and the talented Silverlight Symphony, for an Original Arena masterpiece entitled HJC: A Happy Witchy Yuletide! Congratulations on a well-deserved victory!

-

The victors for this week's Avatar Arena rang in the New Year with recognition and fun! Please welcome Pit Takes Flight, the first place winner of this week's Cosplay Arena, for the entry TOA - Luke fon Fabre! And another huge round of applause for the gifted Sage Winters, for the entry entitled WS: Spirit of Naughty, which swept the competition in the Original Arena!

Now for an inside look at a fantastic group of fabulous individuals who have all come together to spread some holiday cheer and have a lovely time! I've gathered together the joint leaders of the esteemed GCD Fanthread Holiday Special-- an alliance between the groups of S-Corp, D-Party, E-Corp, Black Core Military, J-Corp, and the Paparazzi! What a coalition! There were so many representatives to hear back from that we almost had too much to discuss! Let's see what some of the highlights of the conversation were:

Let's get started! There are a whole bunch of you working together on this project, aren't there? What made you all come together as a team to start the GCD Fanthread Holiday Special this year?

Parexus of S-Corp: Well I wanted to get together as a group to throw a joint holiday contest, now that Santa, Jack, and the Easter Bunny have made amends from their long history of problems. What better way to celebrate the Xmas season than to throw a big holiday contest for the Gaian community and earn lots of prizes with our friends from E-Corp, J-Corp, D-Party, Black Core Military, and Paparazzi! It's a great way to get the community involved and give back to all those that help support each and every one of us.

Yeata Zi of Paparazzi: As editor of the Paparazzi, I never miss a chance for a good scoop! All these NPC fan-threads in one place? How could I say no? The spirit of Xmas has always fostered a feeling of working together for a common good, and it is wonderful to see so may fanthreads (especially those who were enemies just last year) come together to give back to the Gaia community. I have always enjoyed Gaia's many plot groups, and it's wonderful to have a place where we can all hang out together despite our many differences.

ashlex_in_pearl of E-Corp: There is nothing more important than the community. If it weren't for this community we have, E-Corp never would have survived so long, so we try to do what we can to give back to everyone so we can all have a good time! So of course I jumped at the idea for this project.

That's fabulous! Thank you all for working together to make something amazing happen! If I may ask, how has the turn out been for the holiday season? What would you say you have accomplished? Any particularly great moments to share?

Hassli of The D-Party: Thank you Cindy! We have been having a great time! So many people from these very different groups have attended, giving all of us a chance to mingle with outside fan groups. The fan groups all have some passionate folks and it was awesome that we could all work together to make a thread. I have really enjoyed looking at the Christmas Tree E-Corp provided in the thread. The ornaments, all designed by different members of these featured groups, really show how unique we all are, but we make such a beautiful tree when we work together. This event thread is kind of like that. We work together and we made something awesome. President Diedrich would be proud.

Kid Jak of Black Core Military: We have seen so many more people show up and take part in the games and activities. It is really nice being able to have people to give all these gifts too. My moment to share came from before we started when we first got the art for everyone. I loved seeing all our favorite NPC's themed for the Christmas Season and having the art all feel unified. I had a real 'wow this is gonna work' moment and got me so excited for the holiday!

Blackrosekitten21 of J-Corp: Turnout has been great and its been wonderful to see the overwhelmingly postive response from everyone. Particularly memorable moments this year was the gathering in Yeata Zi's house after we didn't know what happened to Jack and the Easter Bunny. Also Collaborating with everyone on this great holiday get together!

It's great to see the enthusiasm you're all sharing! Let's try just one more final round here: What are you looking forward to next year, and what would you say to anyone wanting to join your group or start their own unique community organization?

Parexus of S-Corp: If you are thinking about making your own Fanthread or organization, I say go for it. It can be a lot of work but having the community get involved and discuss about what you created is amazing.

ashlex_in_pearl of E-Corp: As a big part of this community, we are looking to grow and keep inspiring people the way we always have! Just one person has the power to change the world, and I want everyone to know that. If anyone wants to start any type of organization, just keep your faith strong and believe that you can make a difference! Because you can!

Yeata Zi of Paparazzi: As far as joining an organization, I say go for it! I've been a member of so many fan groups over the years starting with the Gaians in Black, but moving on to E-Corp, S-Corp, Legion X, the Cult of Nyx and so many more. One of the best parts of Gaia is the complex world we get to explore and live in. Some of these groups have even made lasting impacts on Gaia itself. It's definitely been one my more rewarding experiences on here.

Hassli of The D-Party: My only advice for people thinking about starting a group of their own, is to not lose confidence. When I started the D-Party, I received some criticism. Nobody becomes President of Gaia without making some enemies it seems. You just gotta stand tall, and keep doing what you are doing. It will pay off. In the year since I have started the D-Party I have gotten over 300 people to join the group, thrown some awesome parties, got Carl elected Vice-President, and even got Diedrich to acknowledge me as his Campaign Manager. Just think what you could do! If you want to start a fan group of your own and need advice, you can reach out to me and I will do my best to answer any questions you have. Seriously! I will help you!

Blackrosekitten21 of J-Corp:I hope to meet more of the community and gain new members in the new year. I also hope to spread more fun and good times. For anyone looking to join j-corp all you need is a love of jack and halloween. We are ready to welcome anyone who wishes to join j-corp. To those community members looking to create they're own group or organization be yourself and never give up. Also reach out to other organizations and other community members you never know what they might have to offer to your organization.

Kid Jak of Black Core Military: To those thinking about starting your own Fan thread I say go for it. It can be a lot of hard work and it will have it's ups and downs but it is also very rewarding. Plus finding a group of people that share something you enjoy about Gaia and getting to know them is, for me, the best part of the forums. Parting words of wisdom? The fish will invade 2015 be prepared.

What a talented group of generous organizations! They hosted contests and games, and gave out presents to Gaians during the holiday season! It may not be breaking news, but it sure is heart-warming. To wrap up this Community Update, the GCD Fanthread Holiday Special gang and I would like to congratulate user minghii for creating lovely art for the thread.

Until next time, this is Cindy Donovinh here again with Gaia 9 Action News, signing out.

02 Evolving Item Report: My Dearly Damned and Pocket Paws!
Hey there Sciencers! It's another lovely day for conducting extreme experimentation! At this point, the EI Labs would like me to remind you that in order to interact with our lovely Evolving Items, you do have to sign a few certain disclaimers and such. No worries, it's all a formality. You're statistically much more likely to end up with a fine selection of useful mutations than the alternatives. What are the alternatives, you ask? Well, that's part of the beauty of scientific discovery: we can find out together! Speaking of discovery, there have been some amazing new developments taking place for our fabulous Evolving Items! Grab your notebooks, and let's observe:

-

My Dearly Damned: They agreed to meet again, the angel eagerly, the demon reluctantly but unable to resist, and one meeting turned to two, then four, then countless times. They spoke about their worlds, strictly intellectually at first, until eventually they smiled and laughed and talked about anything and nothing at all. They would argue about it later, because Serotina was stubborn and embarrassed, but he was definitely the one who kissed Roseus first, not the other way around.

In this time, as their love for each other grew, so did their fear that they would be discovered. They had nothing to lose initially, when they were merely curious about each other, but now, it was everything. One night, the demon overheard one of his brothers talking with another about how the angels were preparing to send one of their executioners, the Wheel, after a rogue who was thought to be consorting with demons; he fled home to Roseus and they embraced, and swore a vow to one another. "Even if we are apart..." Roseus murmured. "We shall never be parted." Serotina finished.

Then, just as the Wheel was upon them, they opened the book and banished themselves to the void between worlds. The spell was vicious, and pulled them away from each other.

[Animal] Her Pocket Paw & [Animal] His Pocket Paw

After a few pokes and prods your new baby emerges triumphantly from it's egg. Aghhhh! It's so cute when it's a newborn. It's probably about 75% head which you believe is the correct ratio of head to body for newborns (or maybe you read it in Gaia Cute Things 101 textbook?). You can't wait to begin nurturing your new baby by feeding it, teaching it and playing games. But before you can decide what fun activity to choose, your digital baby squishes it's face pixels into a grimace and lets out...

... let's just say you're glad you didn't go with the version that comes with scents.

Have you drawn the appropriate diagrams, charts, and little margin doodles? Science is all about being thorough! Being quite honest, science is all about a lot of things. But I digress-- I'll be taking off now for a lovely research trip to the untold centers of Gaia deepest caverns. While I'm away, why not vote in our Weekly EI Poll and share your favorites! If you'd like to check out these amazing Evolving Items in person, please visit La Victoire! Until next time, Scienteers!

03 New recolors, and an exclusive bundle await!
Hello? Hi? Is this thing on? Alright. Awesome! Hello, Gaians! This is a prerecorded message by me, Jet. I've stepped out of the shop for just a quick minute to try and catch the last few minutes of that golden early morning time slot where all the fast food joints still sell hash browns, but it's not terribly cold outside. It's really extra important that I start my day off with some delicious deep friend salty goodness today. Anyways, I'm away right now! But here are some of the fantastic wares that have just become available in La Victoire:

-

Creme Lumiere and Strawberry Fawndant are a charming pair who brighten up the entire shop with their classy demanor and delicate pastel colors. Why, with all the delectable dessert inspired items like these being thrown around, it's a wonder I'm not ten thousand pounds by now! It's also a blessing, because if I were as large as that, I imagine it would be pretty hard to get in and out of the shop, and riding on Cygnus' shoulder would be an absolute no go!

But I digress. Stop by La Victoire to get your hands on the dainty Creme Lumiere or the sweet Strawberry Fawndant before they leave the shop on January 7th at 9:59 AM PST or as soon as they sell out.

-

The New Year Resolution Tama Bundle contains a cheery TEN copies of my celebratory chance item, New Year Resolution, along with the heartmeltingly cute new exclusive item: Tama the Momonga!

Open up my New Year Resolution for a shot at the darling new Lisa the Baby Alpaca, Gregory the Baby Giraffe, Starlight Carouser, Toast to You, Astra: Celebration Fireworks, Momo the Momonga, or even the lovely and impressive O'holy Blessing! Join the celebration by picking up your own New Year Resolution Tama Bundle and trying your luck! This amazing bundle will only be in the shop until January 7th at 9:59 AM PST or until it sells out-- whichever comes first!

Well, we're approaching the end of this message. By now, I am hopefully devouring a small mountain of sausage patties, biscuits, cheese, and hash browns. If I am not, please expect La Victoire to be dark for a short while I mourn my loss of delicious morning junk food. Come on in to check out any of the amazing items that have caught you eye today! See you soon!

03 Check out The Great Race Rematch for new prizes!
Hey Gaians! Did you know that looong ago, there was a race? All the animals of the future Zodiac were invited. The order they arrived in would be the order each year was named! The naive Cat and the clever Rat were eternal rivals and both wanted to be first in line. Personally, I really feel for the Cat, being of a feline nature myself. Sadly, the clever Rat was the first place victor of legend. But not in our race! In our race, everyone won! Strangely though, the judges ruled that not everyone was allowed to win first place. What brings us back today is a tie-breaking Rematch!

-

Attend The Great Race Rematch and watch all your favorite entrants give it their all! There are some amazing participants taking center stage, and they're bringing with them some fabulous rewards like the wonderful [Animal] Grouchy Cat, Great Dour Ox, Chuchu Dash, Shuaijan Calculation, and [Animal] Cutie Saddle Bronco! Stop by La Victoire to join The Great Race Rematch and seek astounding new prizes! See you soon, Gaians! Heck, maybe I should enter. Do you think that Year of the Kitten Star has a nice ring to it?

04 Now in La Victoire: Tricky Vixen and oodles of fab finds!
Heya Gaians! When you wanna know what's hip and happenin', where do you turn to? I used to think that the only reliable way to stay on top of the latest trends right when they were taking off was to consult some kind of mystical prophet, but lately I've been hearing rumors that there's some new, instant way to see what the hottest new buys of the day are! As it turns out, it's by checking out what's new in La Victoire! I should have known!

-

Tricky Vixen is a cute fox girl with just a hint of mischief about her! Dangerously cute, in fact. I'd keep an eye on this one: There's gotta be something sinister lurking under that cute winter wear and absolutely adorable expression! No critter can be that perfect and darling without some kind of catch. Ah, except me of course! Maybe I've been a tad too harsh in my rampant jealousy of all things with tails slightly fluffier than my own.

This charming dear will be brightening my shelves until she leaves La Victoire on January 8th at 9:59 AM PST or as soon as she sells out completely!

-

Beyond Wintermint and Purrsuasion Scene are as different as night and day, or, well, minty fashionistas and black cats. These fabulously detailed new recolors of some of our most beloved sets are an absolute delight to have about the shop! Despite their less than civil bickering, these adorable new additions manage to make each and every ensemble look nothing less than excellent!

Stop by La Victoire to get your hands on the stunning Beyond Wintermint and Purrsuasion Scene before they leave the shop on January 8th at 9:59 AM PST or as soon as they sell out!

The Great Race Rematch Monkey Bundle contains a fabulous five copies of my competitive new chance item The Great Race Rematch, along with the awe-inspiring new exclusive item: The Monkey's Clever Game!

Stop by La Victoire to get your own The Great Race Rematch Monkey Bundle and seek some astounding new prizes!

Are you all caught up on today's fashion forward news, Gaians? I've consulted the various oracles and I can assuredly report that tomorrow's trends will be...revealed tomorrow, of course! Ha! So you'd better check back and have another nice hangout session with my and my good buddy Cygnus. Don't forget to visit La Victoire! See you soon, Gaians!

04 Check out The Great Race Rematch for new prizes!
Hey Gaians! Did you know that looong ago, there was a race? All the animals of the future Zodiac were invited. The order they arrived in would be the order each year was named! The naive Cat and the clever Rat were eternal rivals and both wanted to be first in line. Personally, I really feel for the Cat, being of a feline nature myself. Sadly, the clever Rat was the first place victor of legend. But not in our race! In our race, everyone won! Strangely though, the judges ruled that not everyone was allowed to win first place. What brings us back today is a tie-breaking Rematch!

Attend The Great Race Rematch and watch all your favorite entrants give it their all! There are some amazing participants taking center stage, and they're bringing with them some fabulous rewards like the wonderful [Animal] Grouchy Cat, Great Dour Ox, Chuchu Dash, Shuaijan Calculation, [Animal] Cutie Saddle Bronco or even the absolutely stunning Schoolboy's Skin designed by Twinky Dave and Alleycat's Glamor by Zero Dream. Stop by La Victoire to join The Great Race Rematch and seek astounding new prizes! See you soon, Gaians! Heck, maybe I should enter. Do you think that Year of the Kitten Star has a nice ring to it?

05 Now in La Victoire: Lovely Cerise Lady Lucie & loads more!
Good morning, Gaians (time zones permitting, of course!) Do you know what the La Victoire shipping process is like when we import new items from the mystical land of amazing new goodies? It's pretty simple! Sometimes, items with a mind of their own wander in on their travels. Other times, Cygnus or I have a fantastic idea, so we sit down and craft up our own lovely and darling new additions. If we're totally tapped, though, we can just write randomish words on this clipboard, leave it conspicuously outside the shop's door and within about oh, a week or so, there's a fabulous mew item waiting for us in a big box out front! Crazy, right? In fact, check out the latest shipments from the item crafting ether:

-

Lovely Cerise Lady Lucie and her best pal, the charming Rubescent Cottontail are an absolute delight to have around the shop. These crimson-clad cuties might be endless chatterboxes, gossiping about all the latest news and fashion trends, but here's a secret: I am too! So did you hear that rumor going around that all of 2015's new limited quantity items are going to be the best ones ever?! What about the one where I've been sleeping in one of Cygnus' socks to combat the cold? I guess that's not really the juiciest of news.

Either way, stop on by to meet the darling Lovely Cerise Lady Lucie and Rubescent Cottontail before they leave La Victoire on January 9th at 9:59 AM PST or as soon as they sell out completely!

-

The Great Race Rematch Lapin Bundle contains an astounding five copies of my wondrous chance item The Great Race Rematch, along with the energetic new exclusive item: Pleasant Petit Lapin!

Attend The Great Race Rematch and watch all your favorite entrants give it their all! There are some amazing participants taking center stage, and they're bringing with them some fabulous rewards like the wonderful [Animal] Grouchy Cat, Great Dour Ox, Chuchu Dash, Shuaijan Calculation, [Animal] Cutie Saddle Bronco or even the absolutely stunning Schoolboy's Skin designed by Twinky Dave and Alleycat's Glamor by Zero Dream. Stop by La Victoire to get your own The Great Race Rematch Lapin Bundle before it leaves the shop on January 9th at 9:59 AM PST or as soon as it sells out and seek some astounding new prizes!

Cygnus keeps trying to correct me and tell me that the item production process is much more formalized and complex, and is more of a beautiful system of cogs, much like the universe itself, but I still think I prefer my own explanation. See, mine sort of sounds like a cool movie plot or a grand mystery! It's always good to get some press out there! Speaking of which, if any of these fabulous items suit your fancy, please don't hesitate to stop in to La Victoire and take a closer look!

Fabulous morning, Gaians! Have you been enjoying the wrap up of the Bitter Slumber event? That grumpy Fafnir seems like he's starting to calm down a bit, right?

Creme Slate and the sweet Matsuriko no Glay are both delicately clad darlings with a dainty style and some totally charming accessories!

I mean, I like to think that years of exposure to mirrors has strengthened my charm tolerance to at least two or three times that of a human's, but I'm just melting at the sight of these fantastic new user-designed items!

Circular Motif, designed by user iBlankie, is full of cute polka dotted designs and strikingly bold poses that would add a touch-- no, a huge bucketful of a class to any chic ensemble! Whether you're posing for quick self portraits or just enjoying a nice stroll, you're sure to catch every eye around with this fabulous new masterpiece!

That growling sound you hear isn't my stomach for once: it's the ferociously adorable Monster Scarf, designed by user Avael! Someone needs to get this fearsome chomper a toy or something, because it has a horrendous habit of gnawing on peoples' heads! If that's the sort of companionship you're looking for, or if you just love creepycute style, this might be the creature for you! Nab these stupendous items before they leave La Victoire on January 23rd at 9:59 AM PST!

Wily Vixen isn't that cute. Nope, not cute at all. In fact, let's not even talk about her. Let's not talk about her cute fluffy styles or that charmingly pale color scheme. Uninteresting subject, am I right? It's not like I feel threatened or anything. Nope. Moving on!

Her Soft Embrace isn't looking to steal anyone's crown as cutest critter in town. She's just a fancy, delicately clad beauty who comes to us straight from some kind of mystical wonderland of smooth tones and darlingly dulcet digs! Or, maybe a mystical underland, more like. Seeing as how morbid this scene might be!

If either of these gorgeous new finds resonate with you, be sure to stop by La Victoire to check 'em out before they leave on January 13th at 9:59 AM PST or as soon as they sell out!

The New Attitude Bright Bundle contains a wicked sweet ten copies of the sick (in the good way) new chance item New Attitude! Not only that, but you can open it up for the radical new exclusive items: Eye Gleam Bright and Demurely Prim Punk!

Punk superstar Alleycat has recently been spotted all over town with a charming, classy new man on her arm! The dapper lad's name has been rumored to be Spencer and he's, well, really quite the darling! The big mystery here is if Kath's new beau will gain the approval of her inner circle of loved ones. Her punk posse of vibrant virtuosos have been known to be a bit over-protective... will Spencer pass the test? To see how this young couple fares under the scrutiny of some very qualified judges (and to nab absolutely amazing new items) get yourself a New Attitude Expert Bright Bundle before it leaves the shop on January 13th at 9:59 AM PST or as soon as it sells out!

Woo! What a stunning selection! Now that we've caught our breath and are feeling moderately refreshed, let's move on to the next grueling exercise regimen: Walking. It's sort of a hard technique to pull off, but it goes a bit like this: Pick one foot up, move it in front of the other one (but not so close that you lose balance) and then set it down. Do the same with the other! Soon, you'll find yourself right here at the doors of La Victoire, checking out these fabulous new deals! It's as easy as that! See you soon!

09 Community Update: Arena Winners and...oh dear!
Good afternoon, Gaians, and welcome back to another deliciously informative new Community Update segment featuring your intrepid reporter Cindy Donovinh! That's me, folks, and I'm coming to you live from the studio, where I have some fabulous news to share! So stay tuned, stay sharp, and stay right here and let's dive right in!

-

The votes have been tallied, and this weeks Avatar Arena champions are decided! Taking first place in the Cosplay Avatar Arena is Yoshi Rolls Into Battle for the delightful submission entitled "Tales of Symphonia: Colette!" Looking fabulous and accurate, as expected from a victor!

The Original Avatar Arena champion for this week is the talented lR lE lD, with an aptly named entry called "Happy New Year!" It's festive, it's detailed, and it's honestly an amazing feat of avatar artistry. Let's give both of our Avatar Arena winners a big congratulations! And be sure to stop in and praise all of the amazing folk who took part in the competition by visiting the Original Avatar Arena Winners Page and the Cosplay Avatar Arena Winners Page!

Next up, we have an exclusive interview with one of our beloved shopkeepers! This time around, I just couldn't decide who to get the latest scoops from. There were too many amazing candidates! So to make a final call, I decided that I would simply interview the first shopkeeper who walked past the studio. I hear footsteps! Who could it be? Maybe I'll speak with Agatha! Perhaps even Ruby! Oh, those are...rather confident stomps...perhaps it's a confident-feeling Louie? Maybe...one of the robots? Oh no...Anyone but-- no no no no no no. UGH. Maybe we should just cancel the--

Cindyyyyyy. Lookin' good! Are we on air right now? This goin' out to all of Gaia at once?

Hello Liam. It's an absolute delight to have here with us today.
 * Sure is! Look at these traps. Hoo! *flex* Hnng! Woof.

Anything in particular you're looking to share with us today?
 * If you keep acting so robotic, all the steaminess radiating off my bod will make you rust over. Have you ever thought about finding yourself a handsome, funny, eloaq--elocuti-- elen- eloqui-- ...really well spoken co-host?

'*sigh*
 * Good question Cindy! Great one! Anyways, I'm here today to announce that 2014 has finally ended, so the applications for "Liam's Annual Awards" have just opened up. It's a pretty prestigious program, so I'd start the application process right now if you're at all interested.

Oh! There's actual news to be had! Can you elaborate a little further on Liam's Annual Awards?
 * Oh wow, dig that enthusiasm! In fact, you've just won the award for Cutest Reporter Lady, and then in subtext, you know like, after a colon: Good At News. Just meet me later at that nice cafe on the corner and I'll have that certificate all ready to go!

Oh gosh! I'm so flattered, I'll have to prepare, but, wow! I mean-- hey, wait. Are you just trying to get me to go on a date with you?
 * Nope. It's an Award. Collect it at a nice restaurant. I'll pay the bill.

I see. Why are the rewards only given out annually? Wouldn't you want to use this trick more than once per year?
 * Chicks would fall for it more than once?! Oh man! I've hit a freakin' GOLD MINE!

'*groan*
 * That's a great point Cindy. Anything else to add? Wow, you're the best at interviewing.

I think it's about time we moved on to another segment.
 * Do you feel that chemistry? Man! It was great being on the show, Cindy. In fact, I've just invited myself to become a regular guest. I'll be back next week for another star appearance!

I, er, think we have other guests lined up, actually.
 * Oh man do I know that feeling. Too much of a good thing, am I right? See you next week! Next week is when I'm coming back. Peace!

New proposal Gaians: Let's never let fate decide who our interviewee is again! From now on, it's scheduled appearances only! Luckily, this is the segment where Gaians get to submit votes on what sort of content they'd like to see next. I've gone ahead and set up an amazing new Community Update Thread for you to vote on your favorite subjects and discuss them among your fellow Gaians! This week, there's a special mini-contest running as well! Just click that shiny yellow button below to be whisked away to this week's fantastic activities. Until next time, this is Cindy Donovinh.

09 EI Report: My Dearly Damned and Pocket Paws!
Happy day, Sciencers! To be perfectly honest, I haven't been doing as much traditional science as I should lately. Chemical reactions abound in the kitchen, though, and I've been baking up a storm! Have you ever wanted to make a delicious brownie in only your microwave? It's so simple-- just a little dash of science and voilà! Here's how to do it: 4 tablespoons of flour, 4 tablespoons of sugar, 2 tablespoons of cocoa powder, 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil, 2 tablespoons of water, just the teeniest pinch of salt, and a big scoop of scientific ingenuity! Stir it up and put that concoction in a coffee mug. Set your microwave to one minute or so and you'll be in chocolate heaven in no time! Er, but back to the science, of course: My Dearly Damned and our two lovable Pocket Paw evolving items have made some amazing developments! Let's observe:

-

My Dearly Damned: The nature of the void is not fixed, simultaneously as small as a room and as large as a universe. One could wander for eternity and not find something right beside them, or they could be light years apart and suddenly turn and see each other. If they exited, they could be in any universe, any dimension, out of infinite possibilities, and knew they should only do so together. Parted, they had no hope and every hope of finding one another again. They were at the mercy of the void. This in mind, they held out what hope they could, and searched for each other for many years.

Unfortunately, the Wheel was also drawn into the void through the portal they made... It had been so long, and not long at all, when Roseus turned one day and saw it.

[Animal] Her Pocket Paw]] & [Animal] His Pocket Paw

You wake up to the delightful chirping of your Pocket Paw from your beside table. During the night your precious digital baby evolved into the toddler phase. Time to baby proof all the sharp pixel corners, but first that growing toddler has a growing appetite! Luckily you can now feed your baby whole milk. Phew! Formula was getting really expensive.

What delectable new developments! Maybe I've got sweets and snacks on the brain, but I must say that these latest changes to our Evolving Items have made for quite the tasty treat! Soon, my research on sweet, short-chain, soluble carbohydrates will have to come to an end, but I'm excited to return my attentions to the ever-changing world of our amazing Evolving Items! Speaking of which, if you'd like to get your hands on one of these masterpieces, simply visit La Victoire! And don't forget to vote for your favorites in the latest Weekly EI Poll! I'll be off scavenging for new disaccharides, but I'll be back next week to share more slices of science with you!

14 Winter 2k14: Bitter Slumber is over!
Woah... what happened here? Everything feels so different.

The nightmares felt so real! I hope I didn't cause too much chaos for you all. I think I need to take some time to figure out exactly what happened while I was asleep. It feels like ages have passed, but I have my eyes and it looks like I have control over all the ice and snow again as well. If you would care to see the conclusion of Bitter Slumber, simply click the button below to read the latest manga update.

I'll return soon to dust the hills in frost and spread some icicles across the rooftops. Until then, I need to sort myself out. Something's definitely changed. Thanks for participating in the Winter 2k14 Event, and be safe out there, Gaians. Winter is fun, but it shouldn't last forever.

15 Now in La Victoire: New limited quantity treasures!
What is your morning ritual like, Gaians? I know that some people wake up, stretch, brush their teeth, grab a shower, load up on a big breakfast, and then start their day like a firecracker. Other--probably cuter and furrier-- folk tend to smack the snooze button five or twelve times, run late, sort of make sure they don't smell, and then sleep on the job for the first hour or so. Not me, of course. Just this other Kitten Star who runs a fabulous shop. You, uh, don't know him. He goes to a different school. Anyways, check out what La Victoire just got in! It's a little early, so won't mind if you doze off while looking:

-

What a motley gang! The classy Black Sesame Fawndant, the whimsical Asena's Curious Children, and the irresistibly cute Puppy March have just arrived in the shop. I'd love to use the cliche and say that they're fighting like cats and dogs, but it's much more honest to say that they're fighting like deer, children, and dogs. That is to say, not at all. This odd-seeming trifecta of cuteness may seem incongruous, but they make a fabulous team!

Stop by La Victoire to join the crew and pick up these fabulous limited quantity recolors before they leave the shop on January 19th at 9:59 AM PST or as soon as they sell out!

Imagine a cloud, but the cloud has fabulous lumbar support and is as toasty warm as a freshly roasted marshmallow. It smells that good, too! But I digress. Come on by La Victoire and check out these fabulous new arrivals before they're gone! See you soon!

15 Check out the Tasty Bundle for a delectable new treat!
Happy Lunchtime, Gaians! I don't know if I've ever shared this deeply personal piece of information with you, but when the clock strikes noon, it markes my absolute favorite time of the day! Lunch is the best. You take a break, stuff your face, engage in idle chitchat, and the world slows down for just a few minutes. Personally, I'm in the mood for an extra crispy grilled cheese deluxe with a nice catnip garnish, but I understand that not everyone has a passion for the midday meal as I do. Luckily, if the tasty treat you crave is not actually edible, I've got a special menu just for you:

-

The Tasty Bundle is a veritable smorgasbord of new delicacies! Open it up, and you'll receive a fully catered meal whipped up by yours truly. Now, I may or may not have had to stick 'em in the microwave as you walked in the door, but I promise that these snacks are totally scrumptious! Pop open your new bundle to receive an amazing collection of fabulous items like Splashy Taffy, Leaf Archer, The Russian Butcher, Astra: Bread Tumble, or Syrupy Doufu Hua!

16 Now in La Victoire: Debonair Kitsu and some fab new bundles!
Today is one day I'd actually recommend you stay away from La Victoire, Gaians! Our delightful new wares are totally fabulous, but I wasn't able to eat anything for breakfast this morning! It's like, sometimes the food here runs out. Isn't that weird? I guess I always thought the Grocery Fairy was who restocked the kitchen, but now I'm starting to think that maybe it was just Cygnus being a nice guy. Either way, I could eat about twenty slices of pizza, three bowls of ice cream, and a massive four tiered cake all by myself right now. It might not be safe for you to get too close to my gnashing chompers-- I'm positively ferocious! That said, here's a peek at what prizes await the bravest among you:

-

Debonair Kitsu is a dapper new set sporting tons of cute and flashy looks for the wildest of ensembles! Whether a foxy fashionista is roaming the forest or dominating the dance floor, this charming delight of an item will help any stylish kit look their absolute classiest!

Stop by La Victoire for a meet and greet with this elegant critter before it leaves the shop on January 20th at 9:59 AM PST or as soon as it sells out!

-

The Seifuku Style Bundle is jam-packed full of classic new digs to start this semester off with sophistication! Open it up for the amazing new Puzzling Student F, Stylist's Sympathy, Ornith Philosopher, and the Anomaly Institute Student Uniform! Whew, what a mouthful. Do you think their students are graded on the ability to say the school's name right? Amonaly. Alonmany. Man, that's a tough one. Maybe I wasn't cut out for higher education. It's tragic, but true! I'll just have to settle for being the world's most fabulous, dashing, adorable, and humble shopkeeper while smart cats like you go off and cure diseases or write hit TV shows.

Be sure to stop by La Victoire to get geared up for class with the wonderful new Seifuku Style Bundle! You can purchase Ornith Philosopher and the Anomaly Institute Student Uniform separately, but you'll miss out on a fabulous deal and some amazing extras when this bundle leaves on January 20th at 9:59 AM PST! Don't be late for class or you'll have to hold water buckets in the hallway. See you soon!

Get your hands on the Magical Transformation Ombre Bundle before it leaves the shop on January 20th at 9:59 AM PST or as soon as it sells out!

Oh man, Gaians: My stomach is growling so loudly that it actually spooked a poor innocent bird that was perching on the windowsill nearest to the counter. That dear adorable avian surely believes that contained within the normal (yet somehow totally fabulous) walls of La Victoire, a vicious, rampaging monster lurks, waiting to burst forth and devour anything and everything that comes its way. The worst part is that's totally right. I've been gnawing on the corner of that Seifuku Bundle this whole time. I can't help myself! I am a monster! Run!

If you do decide to stop by La Victoire, keep in mind that there are some fabulous deals afoot! I'm sure if you just bring me a bagel or something, you'll be fine. In fact, I welcome the company! Stop on by!

16 Team up with Cuddly Companions for an animated adventure!
Hey, Gaians. I gotta ask you about something that's really been bothering me for a long while. Why is it that people talk to animals like they're babies? I mean, here I am, speaking perfectly clearly, but I guarantee that when I leave this shop some newbie is going to walk up to me and scratch my chin with an emphatic ohyersocuuutewhattacutebabykittymeow. Those aren't even words! I do like the chin scratches though. Keep those coming. Bear in mind that the vast majority of the critters here in Gaia are quite eloquent when we choose to be. Just ask some of the charming and sophisticated new finds in this latest chance item!

16 My Dearly Damned, Pocket Paws, and Zodiacal: Equinox!
Some days, Sciencers, it's a bleak and uneventful week of hypothesizing and pouring acidic stuff into basic stuff. Not this week however! We've got not one, not two, but three new developments taking center stage here in the EI Labs! In fact, ever since we installed that stage in the research department, a lot of things have found their way to the center. Maybe it's in the way? I didn't think we even used that room for anything other than karaoke night. You know how the saying goes: Science hard, party hard! Now whip out those notepads or frilly electronic doodads, and let's observe the changes these fascinating specimens have undergone:

-

[Animal] Her Pocket Paw & [Animal] His Pocket Paw

Your precious pixelated darling spent a night full of food and wrapped in a digital blanket. When you wake up you see that they've had yet another growth spurt! Your baby is now ready for school (they grow up so fast don't they?) If you want a leg up and to have a well adjusted pixel adult you'll have to send them to the best private school!

My Dearly Damned: Serotina heard the cry across the light years and dimensions, his name howled into the void, lancing him like a harpoon and reeling him across the impossible space to its source. He threw out his wings and flew as fast as he could, for what felt like ages, and no time at all.

When he found his husband, the Wheel was already gone. Roseus had slipped into a pocket of the void, a not quite real secret place, a lovely golden field and warm sky. He lay among the grasses, pink and white and red. Serotina found him, and collapsed, wailed.

According to the laws of his people, Roseus had been executed.

Serotina wept. He wept until he had no tears left, until he wept blood, until his very essence streamed from him, and his body collapsed, and he became the soil that covered the grave of his lover. They would be together forever.

Zodiacal: Equinox: This month, the Astrolabe has turned toward the constellation of Capricorn! Practical, ambitious, and patient, Capricorns are sure to have successes follow them where ever they tread.

Whew! What a hefty update, Scienteers! My heart is aglow and yet somehow broken. Is this something that needs medical attention? I won't worry about it for now. I'm sure that enough experimentation can cure all of my woes in good time. As for yourselves, be sure to vote in the Weekly EI Poll and support your favorites! I'm headed out for now, but I'll be back to share the next major breakthrough. Venture to La Victoire to get your hands on these Evolving Items. Be safe out there, my little test subjects-- er, junior scientists!

Visit La Victoire!

16 Enter the Punked Out Avatar Contest and win it big!
Hello Gaians! In the wake of our last devilishly charming community contest, it's time to begin the Punked Out Avatar Contest! If you have a bold outfit full of spit and vinegar, bring it on over to the contest thread and simply make a post to submit it!

The contest will be ending on January 17th at 5:59 PM PST, so enter now for the chance to win some fabulous prizes like Heart of an Alleycat, Heart of a Schoolboy, Sandman's Burden, or some bundles of the wonderful New Attitude chance item! Good luck!

Join the Fun!

17 Whip out that Mystery Lunch Box and chow down on new prizes!
Oh wow, look at these perfectly assembled lunch boxes, Gaians! Have you ever seen a lunch that stimulates all your senses at once? They smell great, look great, and I swear that when you shake 'em up, they sound as pleasant as maracas. Whatever could be inside? Let's open it together!

-

Wow! What's inside the Mystery Lunch Box must be different each and every time you open it! I just popped the lids off about a hundred of these babies, and I scored some tasty treats like Creme Vert, Tapioca Sesame, Sesame Coffee Cake, Candy Angel's Fall, and even the Vanilla Wafer Bundle! A few times, though, I tried to open the box and a bunch of Orange Soda splashed out. I mean, I got a prize from it, but now my paws are all sticky. Who would do such a thing?

Stop by La Victoire to fill up on some fabulously snacktastic items courtesy of the amazing new Mystery Lunch Box! Itadakimasu~!

17 Now in La Victoire; User-designed furs and new recolors!
Good afternoon, Gaians! It's a fabulously fun Saturday here at La Victoire. My good pal Cygnus and I are making sure to partake in all the classic weekend activities! First, we started off with a movie: The new Hungry Recreation was really intense! We made popcorn and filled the container up with so much buttery substitute that it was practically just a bucket of goo. The video game tournament kicked off with a battle between the two of us on Pouchcreatures: Zeta Beryl, and we somehow managed to find the time to guzzle down three gallons or so of sugary soda. I'm pumped! But nothing has me quite so thrilled as the latest arrivals in La Victoire. Take a look!

-

Tea & Muffincats and Unfettered Operator have been just the loveliest of house guests! One of them brings a constant supply of caffeine packed liquids in fancy china to make us feel both energized and totally classy. The other, well, let's keep it brief and just say that the Operator is about the best spy any Group Stronghold 2 team could ever hope for. It's a strange skillset to have for someone who says they're just an everyday businessperson, but hey, I'm not one to pry.

Stop by La Victoire to meet these fabulous new arrivals before they leave the shop on January 21st at 9:59 AM PST or as soon as they sell out!

-

WOAH! It's like a furtopia in here! It's practically furtastic! Take a look at these fabulous new user-designed custom Animal items! Paws rejoice, for these new bases are about the cutest critters to hit the scene since I arrived in this star system.

The [Animal] Deka Fur, designed by user demonkinky, is as devilishy charming as it is overwhelmingly stylish!

The[Animal] Pastels the Alpaca Fur, designed by user SailorKiraKiraChan, is perfect for any deliciously sweet ensemble or just for stealing every spotlight in town!

Finally, the mysterious [Animal] Xumbreon, designed by user K i n g X u m o t - XVI is looking sleek, stylish, and somewhat dark...it's like it could attack at any moment!

Stop by La Victoire to take a closer look at these absolutely astonishing new furs born from the creative hearts of some absolutely brilliant Gaians! They're selling out fast, but will be in the shop until January 24th at 9:59 AM PST, if you're lucky. On that note, we've kickstarted an absolutely perfect Saturday! So kick back, enjoy the sweet new deals, and don't forget to come by and join the fun here at La Victoire! See you soon, Gaians!

17 Try a Touch of Blood to add some spook to your style!
Jet: Oh man, Gaians. I think there's been some kind of accident around here. Like, I looked away for one second and now there's this goopy red junk all splattered around the shop! Jeez, Gaians. If you're going to throw some kind of Pollack paint party around here, at least tell me before-- EEEEEEK!!!


 * thud*

-

Cygnus: A Touch of BLOOD is a new chance item featuring a plethora of gory delights. I didn't write that of course. There's a note. I'm sure Jet would have noticed it if he wasn't so squeamish and now so very unconscious. Anyways, it looks as though you can open up this drippy box of horrors to receive a sanguine item like Secret Character M, Bloody Horns Bundle, Bloody Fighter, Vague Susie or even the terrifyingly cool A Touch of BLOOD Special Bundle, which contains some sharp demonic items like Astra: Horns of the Bloody Pact, Astra: Whipping Blood Red Devil Tail, Astra: Tears of Blood, and the amazing new exclusive item: Obsessive Stalker.

It looks like this item also contains a chance to win the amazing Project Rainbow Ticket, which can be exchanged for the opportunity to partner with an artist to recolor an existing set on Gaia.

Er, I suppose you can pick one of these quite shocking chance items up from La Victoire at your convenience. Thanks.

17 The Old Ice Fishing Hole has revealed some new catches!
Oh my gosh, Gaians! I geared up in my fishing finery to go net myself a few great catches, but that darn Old Fishing Hole is still completely frozen over! I wanted to catch some fish, but it looks all I am catching through this little hole in the pond are frozen fishsicles. On the bright side, they aren't putting up much of a fight. They're also dropping some fantastic items! Take a look:

-

The Old Ice Fishing Hole has a whole horde of new fishies swimming around! Well, some are new. Others are just at a drastically different temperature from their warmer weather counterparts. Take a look at what's lurking in the depths of this eerie, icy, pond:

Catching an Ice Cube isn't disappointing, because even though you've no tasty fish to eat, you've still won a fabulous new ice-cold item like Conqueror's Winter, Briar Rose Frost, Shiva's Wings, Icy Polar Tear, or even the adorable Breeze Security Blanket!

If you happen to net the Frozen Log, you can walk away with an absolutely gorgeous item like Astra: Whipping Momoko Devil Tail, Dancing Star, Rose Artemis, or even the stupendous Exoskeletal Rascal! As a special bonus, it makes a great flotation device in case the pond decides to drag you under! Not that it's a likely occurrence. It's only happened once or twice.

Somehow, the terrifying Frozen Koi is still coughing up adorable feature and hair items like Effervescent Poofy Pony, Cool Midnight Violeztin Eyes, Rising Star Style, Cool Fallen Star Eyes, and Dark Fallen Star Locks! That's honestly really unnerving.

The Frozen Balloonfish huffs, puffs, and then....floats away harmlessly. Poor dear! Luckily it leaves behind some fabulously stunning angelic and demonic treasures like Sachiel's Wings, Detached Demoness, Siolfor Conjuring, or Heavenly Gatekeeper! With dueling personalities like those, the poor balloonfish must be about to pop!

Don't be afraid of the Frozen Hellfish! It may look a little scary, but this sweet, gentle beast has a heart of gold. Not to mention, it keeps tossing wads of Gaia Cash up into the air! If you catch it, you'll receive a random amount of free Gaia Cash, or a copy of New Attitude: Perfect Crush! Pick up the amazingly new and improved The Old Ice Fishing Hole from La Victoire and start casting a line out for some totally fantastariffic new prizes! See you soon, Gaians!

18 Wild Things is discounted for a limited time only!
Heya Gaians! Put down that smartphone (along with the six million and a half other gadgets you rely on during the average day.) It's time to get back in touch with nature. Go commune with the earth and sea! Explore caves! Feel the sand beneath your toes! Roast marshmallows! Whatever you do to get back in touch with the natural wonders around us is fine. Personally, I'd take the easy way and snag some great new loot with this latest chance item. As a special treat for all you feral folk, Wild Things is discounted for a limited time only!

-

The Wild Things are afoot and there's just no stopping them. They say if you can't beat 'em, join 'em! So be sure to get your paws on one of these for a chance at winning an untameable new bundle like The Wild Things: Black Cat, The Wild Things: White Wolf, The Wild Things: Fox, The Wild Things: Brown Wolf, The Wild Things: Black Wolf, or even the fabulous The Wild Things: Monochrome Devil! Opening 'em up is guaranteed to score you some fantastically feral animated Astra favorites to keep you in good graces with the local fauna!

Stop by La Victoire to try out the new Wild Things for yourself while it's freshly discounted! And remember, a proper s'more is 2 graham crackers, 1 marshmallow, and 12 pieces of chocolate. Don't skimp on the quality, either! See you soon!

Go Wild!

18 Now in La Victoire: Rabbitan and some fabulous Fafnir finds!
Wow, Gaians! Is there some kind of convention in town? You're all dressed to the nines today in anti-trend rebel wear. Oh, I know. It must be because you've all entered the Punked Out Avatar Contest, right? I hear the competition is pretty stiff. Must be a lot of counterculture cuties running around and making mischief out there. Sounds pretty awesome! For those of you not hitting it big with your kickin' new band, or for the punks out there who love to collect deliciously fresh new items straight from La Victoire, check out what's just arrived in the shop:

-

Rabbitan has been hopping about the shop all day! She looks quite surly compared to most of my guests with twitchy wigglers and fluff thumpers, but it's impossible to deny that this radiant rabbit has the elegance and class of a thousand lesser bunnies. In fact, she squashes them flat!

Stop by and introduce yourself to this beautiful bun bun before she leaves the shop on January 22nd at 9:59 AM PST or as soon as she sells completely out! It might be sooner than you think: She sure makes herself comfortable fast, and I'm running out of hot cocoa!

-

With the new Fafnir Bundle, you can look just like the menace that plagued our land, seeking power, headscratches, and snacks! Now that the terror of an eternal winter is gone and done, it seems like Fafnir isn't so scary anymore. In fact, that color scheme is absolutely gorgreous! Pop open this magical bundle to receive the amazing Ifrit the Adolescent Dragon, I am Pawsitively Fafnir, Bahamut the Dragon, and the darling Dragonica!

You can snag I am Pawsitively Fafnir separately, but you'd miss out on a fabulous deal on a fantastic collection of dragony excellence. Be sure to cruise your way to La Victoire to snag the amazing Fafnir Bundle before it soars away on January 22nd at 9:59 AM PST!

Looking sharp, Gaians! In fact, don't get too close. I'm very afraid that you might cut me open with one of those spikes and studs. That said, feel free to bundle yourself up in some bubble wrap and pop right on down to La Victoire to get your hands on today's latest treasures! See you soon!

18 Discover the Secret Garden and dig up a gorgeous prize!
It's strange how not everything sprouts into bloom, Gaians. What I mean is, why is it that I can plant an apple tree, but not a ball of yarn tree? Who in their right mind decided that my catnip plant would be so resilient as to take over half the yard, but my beloved toy mouse tree didn't even begin to grow? I'm starting to believe that the only way to find some fantastic new items out here in the outdoors would be to stumble upon some sort of hidden dirt plot of wonders and rewards. Luckily, I did the hard work for you and actually managed to scout one out! Take a look:

-

The Secret Garden has revealed itself as a lush oasis of beautiful sets as far as the eye can see! Stroll through the quaint pathways to discover flowering and fresh finds like Apotropaic Magic, Forest Warden, Froggy March, [Animal] Sheep Angelique, or the charming Pero the Golden Panda! You might also pluck a fabulous bundle like the Midnight Forest Bundle, Foxy Bundle, or Mild Deer Bundle, to name just a few!

Grab a picnic basket and enjoy a nice afternoon browsing through the rich greenery of the Secret Garden by visiting La VIctoire! It might be wise to pack a picnic though. Ironically, none of these trees and bushes actually grow berries or fruits. See you soon!

And now, in an abrupt change of events, I have a special guest here to share with us the secret of passion and success in the Gaian Community! Please welcome Serenith! Some of you may recognize this stylish celeb as the mastermind behind G.I.F.T.! It's an extremely long running thread where users some together to gift and be gifted to, and has spawned hundreds of generous acts of selflessness since its inception.

Great to have you here, Serenith. If I may ask: Where did the inspiration for G.I.F.T. come from? Did you expect G.I.F.T. to get so popular? It's nearly 7 years old and still doing fabulously, which is a truly impressive accomplishment!
 * When I first started Gaia, gifting threads were where I spent most of my time. And while I really appreciated help I received, helping others made me the most happy. Seeing them spazz out and be super excited just made my day! I knew I had to make my own charity so I could help as many people as I could.
 * G.I.F.T. took several days to plan. Honestly the name took the most time to think up! I wanted it to be simple, but still clearly state what my charity was about. Abbreviating Gifting In Full Throttle ended up being perfect! Like any other active charity, I expected it to be a little popular. But never to the extent it became. And I definitely never expected it to become this old! I've seen many charities and gifting threads come and go. In the end, the biggest reason my charity has survived and thrived this long is due to the awesome regulars and donators I have. By keeping the thread active, spreading the word, and helping me raise funds, they are why G.I.F.T. became the wonderful place it is. They will forever have my thanks in supporting me and my charity!

That's fantastic! Do you have a favorite success story to share?
 * Really anytime I'm able to help someone is a success for me. But my favorite memories are the times I'm able to help a person finish their quest. I know the happiest moment in questing is when you finally are able to get the item. It's the most awesome feeling, and I love being able to give that to people. It's very much about making friends along the way and having a good time!

Wonderful! Finally, do you have any advice out there for prospective Gaians who are interested in starting their own gifting thread or joining the Charity community?
 * My advice for opening up a charity or gifting thread would be to plan well, raise a good amount of funds beforehand, and be ready to put time and effort into it. Also, to realize that it's success isn't measured by how much "fame" or pages the thread has. It's by how many people you're able to help and make happy.

Some wise words from an outstanding Gaians! Dedicated, passionate, friendly, and generous: the community of G.I.F.T. are completely unparalleled! If you're in need of some kindness or think it's about time for a random act of selflessness, be sure to stop by and join in on all the fun!

That it for this week's update. Whew, looks like me made it through without Liam barging in to steal the spotlight. It's mysteriously quiet, I'd say...Perhaps too quiet. Well, it's that time again Gaians: Go ahead and vote for your--- oh dear. Yes. It appears he's back. I, er, have some errands to attend to. I'll see you next week, perhaps. Have fun, Gaians. Truly, I hope you have a great time. This is Cindy Donovinh, fleeing from the scene.

19 Swing into La Victoire for some stunning new arrivals!
Hey! How's it going down there, Gaians? Oh no, don't worry, I'm not calling you from space. I don't plan on traversing the galaxy for a good long while. I was just trying to get in touch with you from all the way up here on the roof of La Victoire! I would love to argue that felines loving high places is a totally cliche stereotype, but I find myself in quite the quandary. I climbed up here because I heard a strange noise on the roof, and now, well, I'm just a bit too scared to climb down. Luckily, I've done my best to draw out a legible SOS with some of the leaves and sticks from the gutters, so it's only a matter of time before sweet rescue arrives. While we wait, let's check out what's new in the shop!

-

Victorious Child is hitting the streets and taking out the trash! Literally and figuratively (just leave these apprentice avengers a nice note detailing when your local garbage pickup day is!) No longer sidekicks to any particularly batty superhero, these rookie crimestoppers are saving the day one gadget at a time.

I can't go out tonight, Owl be Learning! Ah, no, I don't mean me. Of course I won't be hitting the books. You see, it's the name of the new item! This precocious party animal wants me to go to some kind of intellectual panel being hosted at the local university, but I just can't! I'm uh, sort of preoccupied up here.

Stop by La Victoire to take a closer look at these fabulous new finds before they leave the shop on January 23rd at 9:59 AM PST or as soon as they sell out completely!

Get your hands on the Magical Transformation Blessed Bundle before it leaves the shop on January 23rd at 9:59 AM PST or as soon as it sells out!

Oh no, Gaians! I just realized that I wrote SOS completely backwards. Now how will any passing planes or very kindhearted birds know that I need help? Oh wait. SOS backwards is just SOS. Wow, I think I'm getting a tad bit crazy. I know isolation does this to people, but it's only been fifteen minutes or so...still, I hope I make it down soon. Well, if you don't see me in the shop by the time you arrive, assume that I'm still pacing around above your head, kicking aside loose shingles and meditating upon my decision making skills. Stop by La Victoire to check out these absolutely wonderful new releases! See you soon (I hope!)

19 Pop open a Golden Bottle for some delicious prizes! Ahhh.
Heya Gaians! You don't happen to have a bottle opener handy, do you? I tried twisting the cap off of the fantastic new Golden Tincture to try and get my hands on some great GoFusion Charms or up to one trillion gold, but it's...just...not...nghh.....budging!! Crud!

Whew, I'm exhausted. Anyways, I really do need to borrow that churchkey if I plan on opening up all of these fantastic new chance items! I mean, the Golden Bottle is even bigger, and it contains tons of GoFusion Charms and a chance at winning up to two trillion gold!

20 Now in La Victoire: Hunted Ones, and crazy cool bundles!
Howdy, Gaians!

It might be a bit early still, but have you figured out what you're having for lunch? It's a hard choice that you just can't take too lightly. In my opinion, what you eat for lunch affects your whole day after that. If you're like me, you sleep in pretty late and stay up all night, which means that an early lunch will change the course of the vast majority of your day. If that happens every day, lunch practically controls your life! So it's a perilous decision. While we mull it over together, let's take a look at the new shinies and shimmeries that have appeared in La Victoire!

-

Hunted Ones have mysteriously arrived to the door of the shop, a bit battered and worse for wear, but still brave, strong, and most of all: super awesome. These gifted paranormal pummelers are out keeping the streets safe for those of us with stubbornly corporeal forms, and they look darn cool doing it!

Cruise down to La Victoire to meet and greet this dangerous duo before they leave the shop on January 24th at 9:59 AM PST or as soon as they sell out!

-

The Under My Umbrella Bundle contains a fabulous collection of water-resistant wonders designed to keep you at maximum levels of both cozy and cute! Open it up to receive the darling [Animal] Under Gloomy Weather, Snappy Semester, Lovie Rainie, and the absolutely astounding new exclusive items: Stellar Spray and Gloomy Rainy Day!

You can snag [Animal] Under Gloomy Weather, Snappy Semester, and Lovie Rainie separately by visiting the cash shop, but you'd be passing up a fabulous deal and the amazing new exclusive items! Stop by and take a closer peek at this wonderful bundle before it leaves the shop on January 24th at 9:59 AM PST!

-

The Dainty Days Lavender Mousse Bundle contains a pristine and charming five copies of the Dainty Days chance item, along with the remarkable new exclusive masterpiece: Sweet Lavender Mousse!

Celebrate some Dainty Days by picking up this latest chance item for a shot at winning fabulous new steals like BRAIN'S PRINCESS or In BRAIN's Arms We Trust designed by user Ladyshi, Adrian's Wings designed by user ADiTaMi, Best Alchemized Wings designed by I WOKE UP LIKE THIS', or Blade of the Blind designed by Yami Tsukuru! Snag your Dainty Days Lavender Mousse Bundle before it fades away on January 24th at 9:59 AM PST or as soon as it sells out completely!

Alrighty Gaians. I know it was a tough one, but I've finally managed to procure the perfect lunch plan: If I just eat everything in the kitchen at once, I won't have any regrets about the road not taken! So I'm going to go prepare a big bowl of macaroni and cheese in a garlic bread bowl, garnished with chicken nuggets, taco shell pieces, a can of tuna, a few packetfuls of sugar, a dozen scrambled eggs, half a stick of butter, and some rainbow sprinkles. I'll top it off with a side of waffles covered in hot sauce and chocolate syrup. Yum! If I survive this bountiful banquet, stop by La Victoire for the grand tour, and to get your hands on these fabulous new releases! See you soon!

20 Some of our fabulous chance items are leaving soon!
They say absence makes the heart grow fonder, but I think mine's about to break! You see, some of my very favorite chance items are taking their leave of the cash shop and going forth into the world. *sniff* They grow up so fast. I know it's hard to say goodbye to these outstanding chance items, but it's for their own good. Turn a strong gaze to the horizon and wave goodbye to these wonderful cash shop treasures:


 * Tailored All-Star
 * Stellar Solstice
 * Winter Wear
 * Classy Confectionary
 * Checkmate Dominion

Each of these beloved chance items will be leaving the shop on January 21st at 12:59 PM PST, so get them while you still can! I'll see you in La Victoire. No need to bring a farewell present, I've already taken care of it: Everyone always loves getting socks, right? See you soon!

20 GoFusion Update: Heavy Groove & Bitter Frost!
Good day, Gaians! And what an exciting one it is. We've got some new items craftable in GoFusion. Have you taken a moment to check them out yet? They're certainly fabulous additions. Why, if I had just a few more Charms, I might be tempted to get this one for myself! But of course, I think it would clash with my strictly business casual attire. Nevertheless, please feast your eyes on this darling new arrival:

-

Heavy Groove is now craftable in GoFusion! Amazing, yes? I sure hope you've been stocking up on your Charms! Especially since that's not the only surprise we GoFusion has in store today. Quick, Gaians-- what's this?

-

Wow, it appears that the classic chance item Bitter Frost has appeared in GoFusion! This limited re-release of Bitter Frost will only be in GoFusion until January 31st, 2015! Cash in your stashed away charms for a chance at some amazing items like Jack Frost, The Sandman, or Fafnir the Dragon!

On a similar note, it's nearly time to wish a fond farewell to all of our beloved cozy Christmas sweaters! The Cheery Sweater, Festive Sweater, Reindeer Sweater, Wishful Sweater, Krampus Sweater, Presidential Sweater, Cozy Sweater, Snowy Sweater, Chilly Sweater, Tacky Sweater, Classy Sweater, and Cousin Sweater will all be leaving GoFusion on January 31st as well! Enjoy, Gaians! And happy crafting!

To make room for them, I'll have to clear out some of my older stock. It was hard to pick which ones had overstayed their welcome, but I managed to narrow it down. Lucky me! Stop by Rococo soon, because these items are leaving for good on January 22nd at 9:59 AM PST:

It's not out of the ordinary when I find a few coins of gold in the couch or under my bed, but can you imagine my surprise when a vast wealth came tumbling out of my cute little lunch box? If I had to describe that scene in a word, it would be: "HOW?!"

I mean, the Mystery Golden Lunchbox is so tiny! How could I have known that opening it would lead to a torrential flood of gleaming, glittering shinies amounting to trillions of gold, oodles of GoFusion Charms, or up to 10,000 Gaia Cash?

22 Coy Kohaku, Glorious Rabbitan, a fabulous bundle, and more!
Man, Gaians. I know that it may seem as though I'm always hungry, but today is especially a testament to my extreme morning cravings. It doesn't help that some of the stupendous new arrivals that have mysteriously popped into the shop today are mouthwateringly tantalizing. Try not to drool too much as you peruse our latest banquet of new items and bundles!

-

Coy Kohaku loves swimming, shining, and being superbly stylish. She also loves filtering air through an efficient system of gills! Ah, wait-- Maybe I have her confused with an actual koi? Let's see if Kohaku will roll over for a few flakes of fish food, and then we'll have our final answer!

Stop by La Victoire to see this pristine marine-dweller in person (or at least through the glass of an aquarium) before she leaves the shop on January 26th at 9:59 AM PST or as soon as she sells out! Man, why do I always mistake people for fish? I need to stop hunting my friends. On that note, try not to look too appetizing when you get here.

-

Glorious Rabbitan has been hopping about the shop all day! She looks quite surly compared to most of my guests with twitchy wigglers and fluff thumpers, but it's impossible to deny that this radiant rabbit has the elegance and class of a thousand lesser bunnies. In fact, she squashes them flat!

Stop by and introduce yourself to this beautiful bun bun before she leaves the shop on January 26th at 9:59 AM PST or as soon as she sells completely out! It might be sooner than you think: She sure makes herself comfortable fast, and I'm running out of hot cocoa!

 * slurp* I-- uh, well, that's not drool! I just got a little rain on my face from all the stormy new items! It just happened to land on my chin. What do you know about thunderclouds, hm?

22 Check out Tension Cut for a striking new 'do!
Hey Gaians! It looks like a tournament is about to start, but you're looking horrible unprepared. I mean, sure you can probably kick some serious butt in that getup, but let's be honest: To truly power up in this world of special attacks and serious button mashing, it takes more than just combos and speed. It takes... great hair!

-

Grab yourself a Tension Cut to receive a striking new 'do courtesy of some deft sword strikes-- Just hold still! Every legend has a villain, and if you want to face down the vaguely identified and menacing one standing between you and victory, you'll need a slick style, like the new Light Imperial Wrath Style, Light Prisoner of Shadows Hair, Cool Maiden of Sincerity Locks, or the amazing Dark Elegant Assassin's Rose Locks!

Stop by La Victoire to get your own single, three pack, or a thrifty ten pack of Tension Cut to start the battle!

With that kind of loot, you'd have to be wary of treasure-hungry dragons hunting you down. Stop by La Victoire today to snag your own Big Fat Diamond before this majestic bit of bling leaves the shop! Hey, are real diamonds supposed to be this easy to crack open?

23 Loyal's Bazaar Update: Royal Imperial Wrath Style!
Salutations, dearest Gaians. Why, it's certainly an auspicious day for the likes of us shopkeepers. Jet & Cygnus have run rampant with their usual flamboyant displays of admittedly stunning new wares, and I hear that even Admin's pet feature has been expecting a new arrival. Rather than steal the stage, I've decided to quietly and impressively slip in this wonderful update. A good performer knows when to be humble.

-

C'est magnifique! The enchanting Royal Imperial Wrath Style is waiting in my beloved Bazaar for those of you daring enough to venture in and snatch it. I only have a limited supply of these precious treasures, but I daresay it should be enough to satisfy the cravings of my loyal customers (pun completely intended, of course.)

Do stop by and give it a once-over when you get a moment. I assure you that our bug problem is quite under control, and you have only the slightest chance of encountering a creepy crawly while browsing.

Visit Loyal's Bazaar!

23 Mirror Mirror on the Wall, give us rewards- We want 'em all!
Hi Gaians! Lovely day, isn't it? I would go outside to check it out and bask in the sunlight and all that, but to be honest, I haven't quite perfected my look for the day. Do I want my fur combed to the right, or the left? Perhaps I'd look good with a bit of mousse, or some delicate waves. Of course I'll look unearthly fabulous in any situation, given my unique predisposition towards being adorable, but the choice is a bit tough sometimes! Lucky for you, my latest chance item offers double the opportunities to look absolutely fantastic. Check it out:

-

The Mirror Mirror is, well, a bit more than just a mirror. You see, gazing into this is more like gazing into what could be than what is. Take a peek: If the mirror shows just one image, you can win an amazing item like Good at Being Inferior, Adagio Binding, Divinity Court Lucia, or Peculiar Adorkable Bea! You might also win up to one trillion gold!

If the mirror shows two images, both paths to a stylish new you are equally perfect! You'll receive two items at once, like Blackjaxs & Tragic Tower, or Akihabara Nobody & Delinquent Thrall! The combinations are endless! Not only that, but with double the fun comes double the rewards: You might win up to two trillion gold!

Stop by La Victoire to peer into the shiny Mirror Mirror and see what amazing items or wondrous wealth lies in your future! See you soon! Just...maybe in a few minutes. After I finish deciding if I need hair gel or not to tame down my wild mane of pure beauty.

23 GoFusion Update: Sanguine Virgin Lace
Good day, Gaians! And what an exciting one it is. We've got a new item craftable in GoFusion! Have you taken a moment to check it out yet? Why, if I had just a few more Charms, I might be tempted to get this one for myself! But of course, I think it would clash with my strictly business casual attire. Nevertheless, please feast your eyes on this darling new arrival:

-

Sanguine Virgin Lace is now craftable in GoFusion! Amazing, yes? I sure hope you've been stocking up on your Charms! Simply visit GoFusion to see what you'll need to get this lovely item for yourself.

23 EI Report: Pocket Paws and the Finale of My Dearly Damned!
Have you heard the fascinating news, Sciencers? Why, the prestigious and illustrious TECH Conference has asked Gaia's very own EI Labs to create a presentation for their famous TECH Talks program! Why, that's practically the scientific equivalent of making it in show business. I don't doubt that the paparazzi is just moments away from swarming in here to pry into the deepest details of our mundane daily lives and publicize it for the world to fawn over. Until the media wave hits, let's hold fast to our scientific passions and continue making the important advancements. To inspire all my favorite junior scientists to never give up, we worked all night to document this latest update to the Pocket Paws Evolving item. Sadly, while we were focused on feeding and playing with our cute pixel pets, the gripping saga of My Dearly Damned came to an end. I wish we could have been there to see it, but I'm also quite glad I wasn't there for...the incident... I'll not tarry further, Gaians. Observe for yourselves:

-

[Animal] Her Pocket Paw & [Animal] His Pocket Paw

Woah, how did your digital child grow up so fast! They're already taking Advanced Algebra and earning college credits. You feel like it was only 4 weeks ago this Friday that you were changing diapers. Your digital paw is almost ready to go out into the real world but you have to keep them on track with their studies. You'll need to use a little discipline because you noticed they've been using their electronic devices during class and teachers are starting to send notes. UGHH parenting is hard!

My Dearly Damned: "And then they say that flowers grew there. Maroon and dark red blossoms. And pink butterflies and small birds came to land on them." The child closed the homemade book emphatically. "The end."

Father's mouth gaped and Papa's face was pale. "That's a really sad ending, Filaree," Father said.

Fil sniffed indignantly. "It's sad on purpose! It makes you think about all the happy things in your life and appreciate them."

The parents shared a look. This wasn't the first time the child had shocked them; their offspring would naturally always fall between light and dark, saintly and impish, loving and a little bit wicked. But they had each always been a bit of both anyway, and were all quite content living there together. Aside from the kid's hobby of writing really tragic RPF. That was pretty weird.

As they tucked the child into bed with a goodnight kiss, Papa seemed distracted. Later, as they closed the door to their room, in their little dark house on the golden field, Serotina suddenly whirled and drew Roseus into a fierce embrace.

"It could have been true," Serotina murmured in the dark. "Fil's story. If I hadn't found you in time and helped you defeat the Wheel... If I hadn't..."

"...Impossible." Roseus whispered, holding his husband tighter. "I could never have left you with such an unhappy ending."

Ha! See, I'm no stuffed-shirt uptight scientist. You fell for it, didn't you! See, these are the kinds of lighthearted moments I'll miss when my team and I are unfortunately very, very famous. The true ambassador of science lives for the beauty of experimentation, not the dozens of roses or autograph signing sessions that come with success. Someday, Scienteers, you may find yourselves on the brink of becoming a scientific legend, and then you'll remember the grand finale of My Dearly Damned and feel totally embarrassed about this moment. Humility is very respectable among the science community. On that note, please don't forget to vote for your favorite Evolving Item in the Weekly EI Poll, and visit my friends at La Victoire to discover your own My Dearly Damned 2nd Gen. or [Animal] Pocket Paw!

24 The Winter Resolutions Tier Page has been updated!
In lieu of leaving a sticky note on your desk, I thought I would just pop by to remind you all that the wonderful Winter Resolutions Tier is still alive and kicking, so to speak. This month-long tier offers plenty of time to reach your goals. And boy, there are a lot of goals to be had!

If you manage to reach any level of this tier before January 31st at 11:59 PM PST, you will receive the perplexing January 2015 Black Box. Once the seal on this box cracks open on January 28th, you will receive a choice of four new items! Choose carefully- each potential prize is brand new and will never be sold again!

Take a peek at the newly updated Tier Page for some tantalizing new hints at what's inside!

24 Ground Breaker, Rose Diary, Glacial Vault, and a new bundle!
'*yawwwn* Good morning, Gaians. Have you ever noticed that sometimes, ten or twelve hours of sleep feels like even less than just two or three? Maybe I'm some kind of hyper-energetic sleep walker who runs marathons and does hundreds of laps around the shop in my sleep or something, because I'm about as exhausted as can be! Luckily, I was able to tear myself away from the warm and snuggly bundle of quilts and pillows I call my bed long enough to take a look at today's amazing new La Victoire finds. Care to take a peek?

-

Ground Breaker is a hard-hitting new limited quantity masterpiece that shatters the very ground we walk on with its intensely awesome new poses and sleek color scheme. Always in action, this passionate pummeler has been shattering just as many hearts as it has boulders!

Stop by La Victoire to stage a quick meet and greet with this impressive new addition before it leaves the shop on January 28th at 9:59 AM PST or as soon as it sells out!

-

Rose Diary is another one of Cygnus' pet projects. I don't know what it is about making recolors of bold tales of epic heroines, but he's got a knack for it. I'll hand it to him: this fantastic new arrival is totally stunning! It gives the original a run for its money, I'd say. If not a run, then at least an uncomfortably brisk walk.

Glacial Vault reads "You have inherited a safe that once belonged to a glamorous siren of a bygone silver screen. It is said to contain one of her most brilliant collections..." Which sends some serious chills of anticipation down my spine for what precious wonders wait inside!

These shimmery blue treasures will be on my shelves until January 28th at 9:59 AM PST, so be sure to plan a visit before they leave!

-

The Tension Cut Maiden Bundle contains a dashing three copies of the bold new chance item Tension Cut, along with the charming new exclusive item: Maiden of Innocence's Locks!

Grab yourself a Tension Cut to receive a striking new 'do courtesy of some deft sword strikes-- Just hold still! Every legend has a villain, and if you want to face down the vaguely identified and menacing one standing between you and victory, you'll need a slick style, like the new Light Imperial Wrath Style, Light Prisoner of Shadows Hair, Cool Maiden of Sincerity Locks, or the amazing Dark Elegant Assassin's Rose Locks! Get started by picking up your Tension Cut Maiden Bundle before it leaves the shop on January 28th at 9:59 AM PST or as soon as it sells out completely!

Ack! Not only am I sleep walker, I must be a sleep eater! All of my delicate madeleine cookies are gone, and so are all the packets of hot chocolate! I mean, I guess that makes me a sleep drinker as well. And did I boil water to make that?! This is a mystery that demands immediate attention Gaians: I'm going to set up an elaborate system of traps and cameras to try and catch my sleeping self red handed! Or red pawed, more like. I have my suspicions about this scenario. Stop by La Victoire to join the investigation and check out these fabulous new items from a much closer vantage point. See you soon!

24 Pop open the Box of Rainbows for a beautifully vivid bundle!
You know that rainbow that always appears after a heavy storm? I wonder if there's a way to bottle it up... I'd love to have a little jar full of rainbows, you know. That way I could unleash my beloved pet rainbows on my enemies, thus blinding them with their colorful beauty! Or, you know, it'd just be nice to have a lot of rainbows at my disposal. Unfortunately I haven't achieved that technology -- yet, mind you -- but I do have tons of colorful bundles you might enjoy!

-

Try not to give yourself too much ocular damage as you rip the lid off the Box of Rainbows! It's full of chances to win luminescent and lovely bundles like the Her Hatter Bundle, Blazing Blue Bundle, Transfer Student Bundle, Quiet Sketchbook Bundle, and even the amazing Restrung Bundle! Not only that, but you have a chance at walking away with the elusive and totally brand new Hero's Return Bundle!

25 Mikula, Wandering Hunted Ones, and a new Tension Cut bundle!
What are your Sunday plans, Gaians? Go to a movie? Hit up the local arcade for some sweet high scores and thrills? Perhaps you're doing something that doesn't involve a screen, in which case I commend and applaud your flawless self-control and dedication to the "real world." What does that mean, anyways? I'm pretty sure the world is still real even if I spend six or seven hours a day on Tweeter. Who decides what's real and what isn't? Is there a scale of reality to judge it on? I guess what I'm trying to say, folks, is come on down to La Victoire to check out our totally real new additions!

-

Mikula is a bit of an enigma. She's been lounging, prancing, and poking about the shop all day long, but she won't say a single coherent word. Just "Rawr" and little giggles. It's so cute, but slightly mysterious. Sinister, one might even say...

The Wandering Hunted Ones have mysteriously arrived to the door of the shop, a bit battered and worse for wear, but still brave, strong, and most of all: super awesome. These gifted paranormal pummelers are out keeping the streets safe for those of us with stubbornly corporeal forms, and they look darn cool doing it!

Cruise down to La Victoire to meet these insanely fabulous new arrivals before they leave the shop on January 29th at 9:59 AM PST or as soon as they sell out!

-

The Tension Cut Dark Orders Bundle contains a striking three copies of my wicked chance item, Tension Cut, along with two stunning new exclusive items: Flame of Dark Destruction's Long Locks and Silky Holy Orders Style! These astoundingly epic new styles look marvelous with any intense ensemble, and are particularly striking when used with Agape's Cut!

Grab yourself a Tension Cut to receive a striking new 'do courtesy of some deft sword strikes-- Just hold still! Every legend has a villain, and if you want to face down the vaguely identified and menacing one standing between you and victory, you'll need a slick style, like the new Light Imperial Wrath Style, Light Prisoner of Shadows Hair, Cool Maiden of Sincerity Locks, or the amazing Dark Elegant Assassin's Rose Locks! Get started by picking up your Tension Cut Dark Orders Bundle before it leaves the shop on January 29th at 9:59 AM PST or as soon as it sells out completely!

Remember, Gaians: Some amazing Limited Quantity Items are leaving soon!

-

Coy Kohaku loves swimming, shining, and being superbly stylish. She also loves filtering air through an efficient system of gills! Ah, wait-- Maybe I have her confused with an actual koi? Let's see if Kohaku will roll over for a few flakes of fish food, and then we'll have our final answer!

-

Glorious Rabbitan has been hopping about the shop all day! She looks quite surly compared to most of my guests with twitchy wigglers and fluff thumpers, but it's impossible to deny that this radiant rabbit has the elegance and class of a thousand lesser bunnies. In fact, she squashes them flat!

Both of these Limited Quantity treasures are leaving on January 26th at 9:59 AM PST or as soon as they sell out. They won't be back for at least six months, and might never return at all!

What am I doing in my Sunday, you ask? Well, not to brag, but I've recently managed to acquire the entire series of my favorite hit show Purple is the old Blue. Absolutely everyone is watching it, so I thought I'd binge on a little entertainment and not leave the sofa at all on this fine day. The weather outside is great, but the weather inside is controlled by a little knob and is much more convenient. I'll be hanging around the shop as well, so please visit me at La Victoire to join the marathon or take a closer look at some of these amazing new items! See you soon!

26 Now in La Victoire: Holy Flower, the Deco Bundle, and more!
Hiya Gaians! It's a splendid day for tea, isn't it? Drinking tea in summer is hot and feels just wrong. Starting the day off with a warm cup in spring is doable, but certainly takes a bit of the freshness of spring right out of all those bright beginnings. A nice mug in the fall is great, but I think the season of spooks and sweets deserves more of a treat, like hot chocolate or a nice pumpkin latte. Winter is the absolute best time for tea! Oh wow, I'm really carrying on. Before I go on another tea-related tangent, let's take a look at today's fabulous new La Victoire releases:

-

Holy Flower sprouted right up in the center of the shop. I wonder why! You see, I hadn't even planted a seed there or watered it! Peculiarities abound with this elegant damsel and her delicate design!

Take a stroll through the newly floral scented La Victoire to meet this dainty delight before she withers away and leaves the shop on Janaury 30th at 9:59 AM PST or as soon a she sells out!

-

The Deco Bundle contains some boldly styled new masterpieces just perfect for any ensemble! Open it up to receive the amazing Kaede's Optimism, Chocoretto De no Keki, Giri-Choco De no Keki, Honmei-Choco De no Keki, and the hot and spicy new exclusive: Cinnamon Street Style Cupcake!

Be sure to nab this flavorful bundle of artistic sensations before it leaves the shop on January 30th at 9:59 AM PST! You can snag Chocoretto De no Keki, Giri-Choco De no Keki, and Honmei-Choco De no Keki separately, but you'd be missing out on a fabulous deal!

Remember Gaians: Some of our fabulous Limited Quantity Items are leaving soon!

Lavender Tea & Biscats is a positively adorable new set featuring a feline server and her favorite leafy drink. Catnip tea is definitely in style these days. If you're not drinking a nice hearty mug of it right when you wake up, you're missing out on a positively unearthly experience, my friends. With a dash of delicate Lavender in the mix, this dainty delight is a treat not to be missed!

Inverted Circular Motif is full of cute polka dotted designs and strikingly bold poses that would add a touch-- no, a huge bucketful of a class to any chic ensemble! Whether you're posing for quick self portraits or just enjoying a nice stroll, you're sure to catch every eye around with this fabulous new masterpiece!

I can't go out tonight, Owl be Thinking! Ah, no, I don't mean me. Of course I won't be hitting the books. You see, it's the name of the new item! This precocious party animal wants me to go to some kind of intellectual panel being hosted at the local university, but I just can't! It's not that I have other plans, it's that, well, I truly think I'd be out of my depth in a small pond, let alone that ocean of knowledge.

Don't forget to visit La Victoire for one last shot at getting your hands on these amazing items before they sell out or leave the shop on January 27th at 9:59 AM PST! Once they're gone, you won't see them for at least six months, or maybe never again!

26 Without A Doubt: Vocalist Needed!
Band Auditions:

Amazing Gaian-led supergroup Without A Doubt is seeking to hire a new lead vocalist!

Who We Are: Flint Jakobs, Faawnn, Crazy Straw, and Slick Southpaw-- the hottest gang of rock superstars to ever hit the stage. We party hard, jam hard, mosh hard, and think music theory is also kind of hard. We play what feels right and gets the crowds pumped. That's our style!

Info: Open Auditions came and went. There were some amazing performances! We've narrowed our choice of new lead vocalist down to four outstanding participants:

File:Moria Rina Devin Carl

Moira: She's got her own band, but this seasoned pro really wowed us with her passion and musical know-how. I mean, she can read real sheet music and everything!

Rina: Cute on the outside, totally hardcore on the inside. Big things may come in small packages, but mind-blowing rock savants come in adorable ones.

Devin: Tats, horns, and a devilish gaze that says, "I could melt your face off with my sick vocals and then used some carefully placed piercings to stick it right back on."

Carl: It's hard to explain the way in which Carl touched us with his performance. The band has definitely had to sit back and rethink our entire outlook on music, society, and life in general.

One of these radical new recruits will be the new face and singing voice of Without A Doubt, but we're leaving the final decision up to our fans! The fate of the band is in your hands, guys. We trust you all without a doubt, pun completely intended!

How to Vote: It's easy! Just hit the big yellow button below and contribute a little monetary support to whichever aspiring musician you think deserves to make it big. Our prospective vocalists will be busking around the forums trying to win you over and make a name for themselves. They might even pass out a few nifty Unique Charms! Donating to them will earn you some special tokens of gratitude.

-

GoFusion: The dedicated fans who run our merch stand got a little out of control and filled GoFusion with insane amounts of brand new craftable items. We're sorry, but not that sorry. (They're freakin' sweet!) All of the new sets will be available in GoFusion until the voting period ends, so get your Charms together and check 'em out!

Final Decision: On February 1st at 11:59 AM PST the polls will close! What happens next will be decided by the final vote count, and the new era of supergroup Without A Doubt will begin!

26 Community Update: Arena Winners & Groundbreaking Interviews!
Good afternoon, Gaians. Intrepid reporter Cindy Donovinh here at the scene of the latest Avatar Arena competition. The winners were announced days ago, but have yet to secure their place in the spotlight. This is in no small part due to the antics of one particularly errant shopkeeper hiding and tampering with much of our studio's equipment under the guise of "getting mad buff" and "creating job security."

Fortunately, we've reclaimed much of our technical capability and are ready to begin this week's Community Update: the segment voted on by Gaians like you! Today's shaping up to be a doozy, so let's begin:

-

First place in the Cosplay Avatar Arena was Yoshi Rolls Into Battle (that's a familiar name!) with the amazing entry entitled "TLoZ:Windwaker-Princess Zelda!" Astounding!

Not to be outdone, the talented Lapsis Stella swept the Original Avatar Arena by storm with the winning entry entitled "Gormalith." A stunning display of creative excellence from both First Place victors! Congratulations! To take a look at the winners of yesterday or yesteryear alike, check out the Original Avatar Arena Winners Page and the Cosplay Avatar Arena Winners Page!

Next up, we've got an exclusive interview with a fabulously generous Gaian. xoClicheOuais created and maintains Dream Big Dream Magic Charity, a fantastically helpful organization for new users and questers alike! I was lucky enough to invite the illustrious founder for a quick meeting.

Hello, xoClicheOuais! It's a pleasure to have you with us today. If I may ask, what made you start the Dream Big Dream Magic Charity thread?
 * Well, ever since I first joined Gaia in 2010 Ive always loved the idea of helping others and have always been active in the Charity forum. I just love helping others, it makes me happy. Thats why I opened my charity thread, and not only do I get to help others but its a home for everyone to escape reality.

That's fantastic! Now tell me your secret: What do you do to keep the charitable spirit alive in Dream Big Dream Magic?
 * I like to think that everyone in the thread keeps the charitable spirit alive, we've come together as a community and really help each other out. To keep the charity feeling fresh we have different contests every week and raffles to win art and la victoire cash shop prizes.

Wow, prizes, games, and a charity? What a busy place! What amazing accomplishments has Dream Big Dream Magic made?
 * I feel our biggest accomplishment in the charity has just been helping out so many gaians and making everyone feel welcomed to Gaia and becoming such a large charity that caters to everyone's needs.

That's a truly heartwarming sentiment. Finally, what would you say to anyone interested in becoming a gifter or a giftee in your thread?
 * If you plan on becoming a giftee just make sure you're doing it for all the right reasons. Do it if it makes you feel happy, and don't expect anything in return but a thank you from the people you gift.

Great words from a great Gaian! Thank you, xoClicheOuais for helping out a staggering amount of Gaians in need with the help of Dream Big Dream Magic!

They say an interview a day keeps the Liam away and instead of simply inviting in just anyone, Gaia 9 Actions News has brought you a fabulous inside look at the mind of beloved shopkeeper and ringmaster [NPC] Loyal!

Great to have you here, Monsieur Loyal!
 * It is of course a pleasure to be here. Being featured in a segment like this is almost as nice as being under a brilliant spotlight in the center of a large, dark, somewhat perilous circus tent.

Is there any news from Loyal's Bazaar you're itching to share with us?
 * Oui! I've much news to share, indeed! Not only has the devastating bug infestation been tamed down almost entirely, but my beloved Bazaar has recently begun stocking our very own Limited Quantity Items! The beauty, the awe, the demand: C'est magnifique! Truly an art piece to be admired!

I see! Congratulations on the new wares! Not to dismiss your apparent excitement, but I actually had a different matter in mind. You see, Gaia 9 Action News received a tip that the esteemed Monsieur had been on a date recently. Anything you'd care to comment on?
 * Ah, of course the paparazzi wants gossip. I should have known you would inquire about the lovely afternoon I spent with the charming user May Soda Be Eternal.

I hear a Mint Ticket was the source of this mysterious meetup. Care to substantiate that?
 * Why yes, the arrangement begun with the exchange of a Mint Ticket. We discussed many things, from art to history, to the depth of my extensive collection of literature. We enjoyed a grand time, indeed!

Thank you so much for your time, Loyal! Any parting words for inquisitive Gaians?
 * Seek not what you may not wish to find. This applies to all things in life, but especially to secrets.

A cryptic, informative, and useful visit from Loyal! Anyone interested in checking out his latest releases can visit the Ringmaster at his famous shop, Loyal's Bazaar as long as they meet the requirements for entry. It's a prestigious place, and Loyal handles it in style!

That's all for this segment, Gaians. Be sure to visit the Community Update Poll Thread to share your ideas and vote and what you want to see in the next Community Update! Take a peek under the button for a Shout Out from the winner of our last mini-contest, and post in the thread to join our current one! As always, this is Cindy Donovinh, signing out until next time. Stay tuned, Gaians!

Share Your Ideas!

Pickled Cactus
 * Shoutout to everyone in The Newbie Supporting and Training Guild, where I've stuck around even when I was past the point of being a new Gaian!

Oh and I'm all for Team Carl in the next event.

26 In Harmony: Animated tunes for an animated you!
I know the concert hasn't started yet, but I definitely hear music on the breeze. Is someone playing a beautiful harp nearby? I was pretty sure that main characters weren't supposed to hear the orchestra following them around. Either I'm not as important as I think, or there's an item in my shop churning out gorgeous tunes nonstop! I'll just listen closely and...oh, here it is!

-

In Harmony is practically overflowing with motion and melody! Check out this ridiculously energetic chance item for a shot at winning some beautifully musical animated items like Astra: Sweet Music in the Air, Astra: Aggressive Sound, Astra: Catchy Music in the Air, Astra: Eternal Heartbeat, or even the awe-inspiring Astra: Prism Visualization!

26 Find a Golden Nugget for a massive reward!
Jet: Tarnation, Gaians! I've been scrounging around through the tunnels under the shop for hours now and I haven't managed to find a single Golden Nugget. I did burrow my way into one of President Diedrich's many basements and underground bunkers, but even that was just full of knick-knacks and mysterious green slime.

Maybe you should try your luck with this mining thing. If you happen to find one of these shiny chunks of wonder, you could win some amazing prizes!

The Small Golden Nugget may be worth up to one trillion gold or a ton of GoFusion Charms!

The Large Golden Nugget is rumored to be worth up to trillions of gold or vast amounts of GoFusion Charms!

Cygnus: Aren't they just sitting there on the shelf?

Jet: Huh?

Cygnus: Yeah. Look. The Golden Nuggets are right there. Did you really think you had to mine for these again? They've been in the storeroom ever since we explored the Cavern Depths a while back. You should start writing things down.

Jet: I-- well... Guess what, Gaians! Instead of making you wander around through the terrifying darkness and digging your way through miles of cramped tunnels, I can just offer you a Golden Nugget right here in my shop! Stop by and check it out! I wish I had remembered this sooner...

26 Magnificent Rabbitan & Creme Ivoire are now available!
I have a treat for you, Gaians! It's not the kind you eat, so don't get your hopes up. We all love snack food, but there's a time and place, okay? This extra special treat is a gift unparalleled: Friendship. You see, some wonderful guests have set up camp in La Victoire. They're a little high maintenance, so... I mean, it's not like they can't make friends on their own, but I think a little help wouldn't hurt. Could you maybe stop by and just shake their hands or something?

-

Magnificent Rabbitan has been hopping about the shop like a rabbit on a rampage! She looks quite surly compared to most of my guests with twitchy wigglers and fluff thumpers, but it's impossible to deny that this radiant rabbit has the elegance and class of a thousand lesser bunnies. In fact, she squashes them flat!

Creme Ivoire is an adorable new princess from a strange fungal kingdom. It sure was hard to track her down! Every where I went, it seemed like she was actually in a different castle. Not only that, but all these weirdly angry turtle creatures were so defensive about letting me get to her. I can see why, though: This item is a stunning treasure that just can't be beat!

To meet these amazing new Limited Quantity masterpieces, simply visit La Victoire! They'll be lounging about the shop and making unreasonable demands from now until January 31st at 9:59 AM PST, or until they sell out completely. See you soon!

Visit La Victoire!

It's so frustrating! I mean, some of the absolute best new chance items are newly discounted and I can't even scream out my excitement properly. Is it "Yeah"? Maybe I'm trying to say, "Hurray"?

28 Some amazing Limited Quantity Items are leaving soon!
Heya Gaians!

They say parting is such sweet sorrow, but I'm sure not seeing anything sugary or pleasant about saying goodbye to these amazing Limited Quantity Items so soon! Remember: with Limited Quantity Items, once it's gone, it won't be available for at least six months! That's practically forever in Kitten Star years! So take a look:

Mikula is a bit of an enigma. She's been lounging, prancing, and poking about the shop all day long, but she won't say a single coherent word. Just "Rawr" and little giggles. It's so cute, but slightly mysterious. Sinister, one might even say...

The Wandering Hunted Ones have mysteriously arrived to the door of the shop, a bit battered and worse for wear, but still brave, strong, and most of all: super awesome. These gifted paranormal pummelers are out keeping the streets safe for those of us with stubbornly corporeal forms, and they look darn cool doing it!

Be sure to stop by La Victoire before these two fabulous treasures leave the shop on January 29th at 9:59 AM PST or as soon as they sell out!

They're going to grow up to become responsible adults with 401k plans, homeowner's insurance and pre-nup agreements. poof Oh wait, darn they died. Where's that reset button.

That said, if we reset it again, let's make sure that we get the best possible pet with the best possible stats. It's just data after all! Tune in next week for another wonderful Evolving Item Report. Keep experimenting, Scienteers! Don't forget to visit La Victoire to get your own Pocket Paw!

31 The revamped Old Ice Fishing Hole is back and discounted!
Alright, Gaians. Now's our time to shine! I know that it's been hard to reel in the biggest catch of the century with the pond frozen practically solid, but now that the threat of an endless winter has finally come to a close, the pond is starting to thaw! Do you know what that means? More icy fishes, of course! The best news of all is that the Old Ice Fishing Hole bundles are at a fabulous discount for a limited time only!

-

The Old Ice Fishing Hole has a whole horde of new fishies swimming around! Well, some are new. Others are just at a drastically different temperature from their warmer weather counterparts. Take a look at what's lurking in the depths of this eerie, icy, pond:

Catching an Ice Cube isn't disappointing, because even though you've no tasty fish to eat, you've still won a fabulous new ice-cold item like Conqueror's Winter, Briar Rose Frost, Shiva's Wings, Icy Polar Tear, or even the adorable Breeze Security Blanket!

Hook a Frozen Minnow for a chance at up to one trillion gold, or an amazing item like the awesome Unapologetic Sorry, Nihonzaru, Planchette Communicator, Icarus' Fall, One Winged Soldier, or even the original Pale Marionette!

Snag the Frozen Pike for a chance at up to one trillion gold or a completely astounding prize like the wonderful Deer Bundle, Dirge's Tune, Diamond Daze, Reaper Costume Bundle, or Akihabara Nobody, to name just a few!

Somehow, the terrifying Frozen Koi is still coughing up adorable feature and hair items like Effervescent Poofy Pony, Cool Midnight Violeztin Eyes, Rising Star Style, Cool Fallen Star Eyes, and Dark Fallen Star Locks! That's honestly really unnerving.

The amazing Frozen Sapphireback Lion is a super heavy fish that will grant you up to two trillion gold, or up to a ridiculously awesome 10,000 Gaia Cash!! What a rich fish. Makes you wonder how it ended up frozen solid! Buy a heater, frugal fishy!

The Frozen Balloonfish huffs, puffs, and then....floats away harmlessly. Poor dear! Luckily it leaves behind some fabulously stunning angelic and demonic treasures like Sachiel's Wings, Detached Demoness, Siolfor Conjuring, or Heavenly Gatekeeper! With dueling personalities like those, the poor balloonfish must be about to pop!

Don't be afraid of the Frozen Hellfish! It may look a little scary, but this sweet, gentle beast has a heart of gold. Not to mention, it keeps tossing wads of Gaia Cash up into the air! If you catch it, you'll receive a random amount of free Gaia Cash, or a copy of New Attitude: Perfect Crush!

Oh no! A Frozen Catfish? These ones weird me out. I mean, I'm a cat. And that's clearly a fish. What does "cat fish" even mean?! At least this strange critter will spit out up to one trillion gold or a fantastic treasure like Tapioca Green Tea, Petit Cherie, Salmon Nigiri Mood Bubble, Splashy Taffy, or Astra: Mint Crown of Sparkles! Otherwise we might have to be eternal rivals or something.

This Frozen Angelfish is so friendly! I never thought of fish as affectionate creatures, but this one loves to spoil its friends with up to one trillion gold or an astounding bundle like the Foxy Bundle, Envious Green Bundle, Asian Food Bundle, Renowned Wizard Bundle, or even the legendary Royal Treasury Bundle!

Take a quick trip to La Victoire to cast a line. Now's a great time to take up a new fish collecting hobby, especially since these ones are full of prizes! See you soon, Gaians!

31 Check out the Rainbow Gemstone for a glimmering suprise!
Heya Gaians! It's a fabulous day for spelunking, isn't it? I've been out and about searching for glittery new treasures to bring to La Victoire. I found some really exciting things! Old coins, some weird garbage, a couple of big wooden chests (don't worry, they're probably empty) and most importantly: a box! A big, perfect cardboard one! I crawled right up in that amazing thing and now I have an impenetrable fortress of feline solitude.

-

Amazingly, all I had to do in order to claim this box for my own was dump all these weird Rainbow Gemstones out of it. Good riddance!

Taking a peek at the Rainbow Gemstone will reveal a shiny new prize! It might be the Peridot, Rose, Amethyst, or Zircon! Each one has a chance to rain down a shower of trillions of gold or tons of awesome GoFusion Charms!

I don't really need these. In fact, they're taking up prime napping space in my box, so I'm doing my best to sell each and every one of them. Stop by La Victoire to get your hands on a sparkling Rainbow Gemstone! See you soon!

01 Benevolent Ruler, Capsule Corps Bundle, and more!
I had a strange dream, Gaians. I thought I was chowing down on an amazing banquet of delicious food! There were cakes, pies, ice cream, potato chips, burritos, pizzas (with tons of anchovies, of course,) chicken wings, cookies, and loads of triple cheesy nachos. It was like I'd ascended to a higher plane of tastiness and gluttony. Heaven, perhaps? I guess the punchline of this story is that I woke up covered in drool and with only half a pillow. I've been burping up feathers all morning! But I digress. What I'm really here to share with you is the thrill of checking out what's new in La Victoire. Take a look:

-

Benevolent Ruler was quite hard to locate! You see, this damsel always seems to be in some form of distress. That is, when she's not out causing some distress of her own with her gutsy antics and daring adventures! This wise royal rocks a perfectly pink style and some stunning new poses.

Slash some grass and watch out for powerfully angry chickens on your way to La Victoire. Benevolent Ruler will be leaving the shop on February 5th at 9:59 AM PST or as soon as she sells out! Hyah!

-

The Capsule Corp Bundle contains some fabulous new recolored treasures to collect and share! No need to go out and seek all of these unique new finds, you can fill up that convenient database of yours with just this one massive bundle! Pop it open to receive the fantastic new Gacha Pro, Not Tomorrow Dusk, and Skylar the Amazing! Grab the rare and shiny new exclusive items: Uber Submarine Capsule, Supreme Submarine Capsule, and Fantastic Submarine Capsule! I'm not sure exactly what these are for, but something is telling me that now is not the time to use them...

Toss on your running shoes and zip your way to La Victoire. The Capsule Corp Bundle will be leaving for good on February 5th at 9:59 AM PST. You can buy Gacha Pro, Not Tomorrow Dusk, and Skylar the Amazing separately as well! We hope to see you again soon!

Remember, Gaians: Some of our fantastic Limited Quantity Items are leaving soon!

-

Mournful Child is hitting the streets and taking out the trash! Literally and figuratively (just leave these apprentice avengers a nice note detailing when your local garbage pickup day is!) No longer sidekicks to any particularly batty superhero, these rookie crime stoppers are saving the day one gadget at a time.

Precise Daeva is a sultry little lady with bold and stylish fashion choices. Everything from her angelic wings to her lovely horns are simply divine! Also, you just have to adore her elegant leg and arm poses; such passion, such attitude!

Stop by La Victoire to take a closer look at these fabulous new finds before they leave the shop on February 2nd at 9:59 AM PST or as soon as they sell out completely! These Limited Quantity Items won't be back for at least six months, and possibly never at all!

That's all for this morning, Gaians! I hope you're hungry for more, though. There are a lot of great things in store for today. Now if you'll excuse me for a short while, I have an adorable feline face to stuff full of fantastic food. Stop by La Victoire to join me! I'll see you soon, right?

01 Check out the Crystal Prism for an amazing new prize!
Jet: Hey Gaians! Look really closely into this shiny doohickey. The light goes in, but it comes out...different. The light hitting it is normal, but the light coming out is a lovely rainbow! Now, I'm not sure if science has a way to explain this phenomenon, but I definitely have some major theories. Like, maybe this sparkly little thingamajig has a bunch of super colorful rewards crammed inside!

Cygnus: The prism is clearly separating the visible light into the different colors of the electromagnetic spectrum. There definitely aren't items--

-

Sure. Ok. *sigh*

Jet: I knew it! The Crystal Prism is full of beautifully colored treasures! Not only can you smash this perplexing whatnot to receive a fabulous set like the Blazing Blue Bundle, Prized Possessions, Elegant Fighter, and Topaz Millennium, but you also have a shot at winning up to one trillion gold! i've also heard a rumor that the elusive Project Prism Ticket, which can be exchanged for the opportunity to work with a Gaia artist to recolor six poses of an existing Evolving Item!

Cygnus: I guess I don't fully understand the physics of this galaxy.

Jet: That's okay, Cygnus! Lucky for you, the wonderful Crystal Prism will be waiting for everyone in La Victiore. Stop by to study it as a scientific oddity, or perhaps to win some absolutely fantastic rewards! See you soon, Gaians!

01 Community Update: Arena Winners & Exclusive Interviews!
Hello Gaians! It's about that time again: I'm here to share with you another fantastic Community Update! It's the segment voted on by Gaians just like you. A fantastic scene is gearing up here at Gaia 9 Actions News. As always, I'm Cindy Donovinh, your intrepid reporter. Let's dive right in:

-

This week's Avatar Arena winners are in! Taking first place in the Original Avatar Arena, let's give a big high-five to Mini Meow for an amazing entry entitled: "One Wish Fairy!" The talented Pit Takes Flight swept the competition with the fantastic "ME!ME!ME!" A stunning display of creative excellence from both First Place victors! Congratulations! To take a look at the winners of yesterday or yesteryear alike, check out the Original Avatar Arena Winners Page and the Cosplay Avatar Arenas Winners Page!

The forums have been abuzz with gossip about the latest music sensation: Without A Doubt! This groundbreaking band featuring some talented (and very lucky) Gaians. Faawnn plays the drums, Flint Jakobs rocks the bass, and Slick Southpaw partners up with Crazy Straw to jam out on guitar. They've been looking for a new lead vocalist, and each of these beloved celebrity shopkeepers are competing to fill the position! I've invited them here today for a quick update on the proceedings.

Welcome! It's great to have you all here!
 * Rina: Oh my gosh, thank you! ♥
 * Devin: How's it going?
 * Moira: Yo.
 * Carl: *snort*

So it looks as though voting has concluded! Now that the polls are closed, what's going through your heads?
 * Devin: If the universe wants me to join the band, the universe will come through for me. If not, then at least I had a fantastic time.
 * Moira: The competition was pretty stiff. I mean, none of you are rock stars, but all of you definitely bring something unique to the table. It would have made more sense if that unique thing was musical ability, but hey, who am I to judge?
 * Rina: I'm super hungry! I haven't checked my Dropplr in like a week! When are the Monthly Collectibles coming out?! I'M NOT FREAKING OUT!
 * Carl: ...

Tensions are high here in the studio, Gaians! The reactions range from carefree to competitive to anxious, and finally to a dark, intimidating silence. This does bring up the question: How did such a wide cross section of Gaia's beloved shopkeepers end up joining the fray?
 * Moira: I've known of Without A Doubt for a while now. They're new to the scene, but they give even Nervegas Crisis a run for their money when it comes to sick solos and getting a crowd pumped. I was actually invited to the auditions by one of the band's managers. It was a "my people will call your people" sort of deal. Punchline is that we don't have any people, unless you count Mona and her computer club friends handling all our paperwork.
 * Carl: ( Carl glares pointedly. He's...looking directly into the camera, Gaians. Is it at you? Such an enigmatic response...!)
 * Devin: Coincidentally, Natasha is a huge fan of these guys. The first few times I heard them, I thought they were too chaotic. After a while, it completely clicked: Life is chaos! It's a real poetic theme. I admire that in a band. In fact, Natasha and I both auditioned for the lead vocalist position. She didn't make it past the first round. Pity, really. I thought her original track, "New Lead Vocalist: Natasha is the Bomb!" was a really moving piece.
 * Rina: There was a flyer. It was on a big bulletin board right in the heart of Barton. Did no one else see it? It was HUGE! It looked like just like this one.
 * Moira: Wait-- it looked just like that one, or it was that one?
 * Devin: Did you steal the flyer?
 * Carl: *stomping*
 * Rina: It's...I mean, it'll totally be a collectible one day! It's so pretty...

It appears that Rina sabotaged potential competition by removing the flyer advertising the Open Audition process! A scandal in the making? An innocent mistake? I think the real question here is what you believe, Gaians. Now that the voting is over, is there anything you'd like to say as a final message to your fans or fellow competitors?
 * Devin: Peace, love, rock, and tats. If you share those kinds of values, we'd be great friends. Hang out at Skin Tyte more often! We also have a special discount for folks who have their gBay orders mailed here. You can hit me up for details next time you're expecting a package.
 * Rina: I'm sorry if some of you guys didn't get to see the flyer. Really, I am! I'd be super duper happy if you visited me soon. Thank you guys so much for supporting me! I promise that if I won, I'll be the best band member who was ever a member of a band. EVER!
 * Moira: Hey guys. I hope I won! If I didn't, that's okay too. I tried to put on a tough face for the stage, but I don't think it's really me. True hardcore is what's inside, y'know? Sass aside, everyone did a really great job in the auditions. The forum was poppin' too! Thanks, Gaians!

And Carl? Any erm, final goodbyes?
 * Carl: ...

Alright, folks! That concludes a fantastic exclusive interview with the finalists for the Without A Doubt auditions. I hope you enjoyed the event, and everyone here at Gaia 9 Action News would love to thank these busy and talented musicians for their time. Next up, we're--


 * Carl: (REUUUUUUUURGHHH BROOOOOARRRR!!!!!)

END OF INTERVIEW! END OF INTERVIEW! EVERYONE GET OUT!!

Alright, hello there Gaians! Breaking news here at the studio! I'm reporting from just outside the door, where Carl the Elk has barricaded himself inside Gaia 9 Action News. He's... he's chewing on some kind of sweat band. It's yellow, with a black stripe though the center. Does anyone on our crew even wear that? I pity any souls still trapped inside.

While we sort this out, please direct your attention over to the Community Update Thread to vote for what you want to see in the next Community Update. Be safe out there, Gaians! The message below the button was submitted by the winner of last week's Shout Out Contest.

01 Gold Shop Update: Salon Durem and Dernier Cri!
Hey Gaians! Cute looks! Who's your stylist? Oh, right. That's me. Well, lucky for us both, there have been some great new improvements in the realm of cosmetology. I went back to school for a while. I guess I was expecting it to be a bit less catty than last time I took class, but given that some of the major highlights of the lesson included new styles for Paws users, well, there were literal cats there. On the bright side, I've got a newly updated certificate to flaunt, and you get to check out some great new styles for Paws and people alike!

-

Pretty stunning, right? Hair, beards, and even some five o' clock shadow for Paws! I can't take all the credit. I mean, half of cutting hair is having hair to cut. You Gaians do some A+ hair growing and present me with some absolutely perfect canvases. In fact, I think Brennivin feels the same way-- Some new items just popped into Dernier Cri.

-

He was bragging about them earlier. It was pretty adorable, to be honest. Looks like they're called Pouf a la Reine, Cascading Frills, Armor of the Imperial Lion, and [Animal] Crystal Pave Gown. You can stop by Dernier Cri to check 'em out. (After you've gotten a trim from Salon Durem, of course!)

03 Crack open a Small or Large Geode to win shiny prizes!
Hiya, Gaians! I have been busy collecting a mountain of roundish rocks. Why you ask? I have discovered these are no ordinary earth rocks! Can you believe that the dull plain exterior of these rocks can hide a dazzling treasure filled interior? They are actually geodes! A geode is a special type of rock which contains a hollow cavity lined with crystals like quartz or amethyst. Once you get your geode opened the right way, you will find yourself rewarded for your patience when you discover that you have unearthed a beautiful prize within! Take a look!

Small Geode: Crack one open to be rewarded with a choice of gold or GoFusion charms! There is even a chance to win up to 10,000 Gaia Cash!

Large Geode: Bust open the bigger geode to win even more gold or GoFusion charms stuff into the larger sized crystal cavity! The odds are better to win up to 10,000 Gaia Cash with this larger sized geological wonder!

Get ready and grab your rock picks and hammers to strike it rich with these fun new rocks now in La Victoire! I also recommend some safety goggles! You could do it without them of course, but you don't want to put an eye out now do ya?

04 Chai Tea & Biscats, Counting Black Sheep, and a new bundle!
Heya Gaians! How is your relationship with stress? Is it a working one, or do you really not see yourself spending a lifetime with it? Does stress have a nagging mother in law, or some strange theories on how to wash dishes correctly? Maybe I've took the personification a bit far. It's important to remember that stress might seem like an awkwardly clingy roommate, but you can totally kick it in the butt and tell it to pay rent or get out! Er, I mean, it's good to calm down once in a while. Personally, I find it refreshing and relaxing to check out all the fabulous new releases in La Victoire! Give it a shot for yourself to see what I mean:

-

Counting Black Sheep adores cuddling with her soft flock and looking fabulous while mastering the art of being cozy. That thing about black sheep not fitting in must be some kind of myth, because even though this precious lamb prefers to order a pizza rather than graze in the field, she's the most popular ewe in the herd!

Chai Tea & Biscats is a positively adorable new set featuring a darling feline server and her favorite leafy drink. Catnip tea is definitely in style these days. If you're not in the business of being served a dead rat next time you drop by, I wouldn't recommend leaving a tip. This cat shows her appreciation in some interesting ways. (Personally, I think it makes a lovely garnish.)

Be sure to visit La Victoire to meet these adorable new arrivals before they leave the shop on February 8th at 9:59 AM PST or as soon as they sell out!

These fantastic items are just a quick trip to La Victoire away! Check out the Monthly Assortment Shaman Bundle for some brand new items before it leaves the shop on February 8th at 9:59 AM PST or before it sells out completely!

Wow, Gaians! That was completely therapeutic. I feel like a whole new Jet! Equally as cute, charming, brilliant, talented, and darn good at brewing up some hot chocolate as the old Jet, but new nonetheless. For a healthy dose of brand new items to collect and share, be sure to take a quick trip to La Victoire today! See you soon, Gaians!

04 Chances to win Project Prism Ticket have increased by 75x!
Hey Gaians! Look really closely into this shiny doohickey. The light goes in, but it comes out...different. The light hitting it is normal, but the light coming out is a lovely rainbow! Now, I'm not sure if science has a way to explain this phenomenon, but I definitely have some major theories. Like, maybe this sparkly little thingamajig has a bunch of super colorful rewards crammed inside!

The best part is that the chances to win the Project Prism Ticket have been increased to 75 times the normal rate for a limited time only!

-

I knew it! The Crystal Prism is full of beautifully colored treasures! Not only can you smash this perplexing whatnot to receive a fabulous set like the Blazing Blue Bundle, Prized Possessions, Elegant Fighter, and Topaz Millennium, but you also have a shot at winning up to one trillion gold! I've also heard a rumor that the elusive Project Prism Ticket, which can be exchanged for the opportunity to work with a Gaia artist to recolor six poses of an existing Evolving Item!

I guess I don't fully understand the physics of this galaxy.

That's okay, Cygnus! Lucky for you, the wonderful Crystal Prism will be waiting for everyone in La Victiore. Stop by to study it as a scientific oddity, or perhaps to win some absolutely fantastic rewards! See you soon, Gaians!

04 Loyal's Bazaar Update: Judicious Ruler & Crass Reputation
Ladies, Gentlemen, and beings of every sort and plane of existence: I welcome you to a most majestic display. You see, nary a day goes by when I do not think it a perfect notion to add a brand new work of artistic delight into the Bazaar. Despite my rather ambitious intentions, it's quite difficult to find a new wonder on demand! Frankly, it quite amazes me that Jet and Cygnus manage to do it so often. I have many suspicions about the goings-on of La Victoire, but let's not dwell on that today. You see, now is a time of celebration! Direct your gaze below:

-

C'est magnifique, non? The elegant Judicious Ruler and the somewhat less than charming Crass Reputation are waiting in my beloved Bazaar for those of you daring enough to venture in and snatch them. I only have a limited supply of these precious treasures, but I daresay it should be enough to satisfy the cravings of my loyal customers (pun completely intended, of course.)

Do stop by and give the shop a once-over when you get a moment. I assure you that our bug problem is quite under control, and you have only the slightest chance of encountering a creepy crawly while browsing.

Visit Loyal's Bazaar!

04 Check out Horns and Tails for some devilish thrills!
Heya Gaians! Things around here have been a bit too cheery, haven't they? It lacks a certain edge factor.

04 Mournful Rose Wedding & Some Amazing Discounts!
Hey Gaians! I need some advice. If a guest shows up to the shop uninvited, should I just let them walk in and take over the place? I mean, I guess I'm asking this a bit late, since that's already happened. This latest limited quantity item is a big, well, dramatic.

-

05 [Animal] Diamondback Lion Scales, Indie Inamorato and more!!
Wahoo, Gaians! I am feelin' PUMPED! If I don't have the energy of a small solar system, I at least have the energy of a kid at one of those arcade-slash-pizza joints where they load 'em up on sugar and tokens and set loose their mischief on the world. I could run a marathon! To heck with that; I could run, bike, and swim my way though at least a dozen triathlons. You feel? If you want to keep up with me today, you'll have to start by taking inventory of what's new in La Victoire! (I've already counted and recounted the stock at least 30 times.) Take a look:

-

Wow! The [Animal] Diamondback Lion Scales were designed by the super-talented user Kid Jak! Look at how adorable and vaguely menacing this fur makes Paws look. I love it! Or...perhaps fear it. Are the two mutually exclusive?

-

Not to be outdone, the dapper Indie Inamorato is hitting the stage with some clever style. For the worldly blogger, keeping up on the latest fashion trends is as easy as scanning your favorite OOTD hashtags!

Hey Gaians! I know that many of you creep in here while Cygnus and I are still sleeping to get a sneak peek at each day's new releases. Consider yourselves caught!

Precisely Debonair Kitsu is a dapper set sporting tons of cute and flashy looks for the wildest of ensembles! Whether a foxy fashionista is roaming the forest or dominating the dance floor, this charming delight of an item will help any stylish kit look their absolute classiest!

06 Evolving Item Report: Introducing My Bloody Valentine!
Greetings, Sciencers! As you know, most animals on this strange yet endearing planet have a particular time of the year when they prefer to partner off. Mating season is not a trend in humans, but I do like to point out the scientific parallels between a traditional mating season and our yearly Valentine's Day celebrations. It's peculiar, isn't it? Research can reveal so much, but has no evidence that supports the reasoning behind romance flourishing in mid-February. On that note, it is important to realize that not every participant of the season even intends to find a romantic partner. Personally, I've no time for dating. Science is my only love interest, and we've a relationship built on trust, passion, and experimentation. Quite healthy! Likewise, the fantastic new Evolving Item currently undergoing study at the EI Labs has many a Valentine's tale to tell. Let's observe:

-

My Bloody Valentine
 * There once was a lovely vampire
 * Quite a sight in her bedroom attire
 * Draculette she was named
 * Round the world she was famed
 * To inflame countless ladies' desire.


 * "Oh, I've no one to kiss," she does whine,
 * "No pretty necks upon which to dine."
 * Paging through old love letters
 * Some ex-flames she remembers,
 * Many beauties she called Valentine...

Ooh, such a gripping story! I'm unsure of how to record it, scientifically, but I think that a subject exhibiting such charisma and mysterious allure should really be studied a tad more intently. Perhaps we'll have to hire more interns for the task! Happy day! I love interns! They work for free, the volunteer as test subject for free, and they leave me free to go exploring while they do the tedious lab work. Ah, I can feel my heart warming already. I guess it really must be the season for affection! Of course, you'll simply have to wait until next week to reach the next milestone in the tale of My Bloody Valentine. You can pick up your own prototype version in La Victoire in the meantime. Keep studying, Scienteers!

This just in: We've a special guest in the studio today! No, it's not that dense Liam, who has been mysteriously quiet lately. It's a most mysterious (yet approachable) individual known only as The Intelli-Gent! You may know this dapper user as the person in charge of The Intelli-Castle: Royal Freebie Hangout & Giveaway Thread which aims to spread kindness, charity, and lovely art all across the Art Freebies forum.

Thanks for joining us! Let's begin: Why did you found The Intelli-Castle?
 * Well now, though it's an art-based thread, The Intelli-Castle actually began life as a charity many years ago. It was opened on a whim, but then something rather magical happened, and the lovely little community which formed is still here eight years later! As that community has evolved over the years, it is now an art hangout, but we still host the giveaways which were popular in our charity days, too!

What a truly impressive tale! If I might ask, what would you say fuels the spirit of The Intelli-Castle? Who keeps it alive, and how?
 * I think it is a spirit of friendship and fun which has made it successful, and all the kind and creative Gaians who have joined over the years... though I suspect that the quirky games and tradition of "tease The Gent" may also have something to do with it (my top hat certainly goes missing on an unerringly regular basis). With love extended to everybody in the Castle, I would particularly like to say that my longest-standing crew members, BabyKagomeGirl, Maria Moonfang, PetrichoraV, de Hemel op Aarde and teastain, have been very dear friends and helped splendidly in keeping things running smoothly.

Fantastic! A trusty team of talented individuals taking care of a first rate thread. Before we wrap up this chat, I'd like to ask just one more question: What would you say to anyone wishing to visit The Intelli-Castle and contribute to this fabulous organization?
 * We're always happy to see newcomers in our happy little Gaia-home, so anyone is welcome to drop in for a little tea, a little nonsense, and a chocolate biscuit or two! Artistic ability is not essential; a sense of humour probably is. Please mind the explosions and the piranhas.

Anyone interested in teaming up with The Intelli-Castle to win some great prizes, help out Gaians in need, score some charming avatar art, or even make some for yourself should make it a point to drop by the The Intelli-Castle: Royal Freebie Hangout & Giveaway Thread to hang out with some fantastic folk!

Until next week, Gaians: This is Cindy Donovinh, your intrepid reporter, signing out. Please don't forget to visit the Community Update Thread to vote in our poll and suggest some aspects of Gaia to feature in an upcoming Community Update! Your post might be randomly selected to win our weekly Shout Out contest, and you will get the chance to have a one sentence quote included in a future Community Update! Use it to plug a thread, organization, or just to say hi!

09 Now in La Victoire: Tama the Warrior, new recolors, & more!
Good morning, Gaians! The best way to kick off a new week is with some new resolutions. This week, I vow to bring you only the absolute best in awesome new limited quantity items, recolors, bundles, and chance items! Of course, "best" is a pretty subjective term, so I'll try not to cater too much to my own feline fancies. Otherwise, all of our items would just be about the things we Kitten Stars love: naps, toys, a big cup of coffee, that strange red dot that we can never catch, and conspiracy theories. I'll stick to the stuff that you planetary natives like, so let's begin:

-

Tama the Warrior has joined the ranks of Gaia's most fearsome, brave, and positively adorable brawlers. The squishy little Tama you know and love has powered up into a super strong action hero, complete with irresistably cool battle attire, weaponry, and Tama's signature red panda regalia. Fight on, little dude!

Do you hear that thumping, Gaians? It's that time of year again and the sound of fluttering hearts is floating on the breeze. Is it like? Is it like-like? Is it love?

I hope you're ready to tolerate all the seasonal gooeyness and otherwise cliche gimmicks. Ugh. If you still need a few more layers of protection from all this love nonsense, it's time to check out our latest chance item:

-

The Box of Anti Valentine's seems like an innocuous sweets box, but when you open it up, you'll find a spiteful stash of anti-romantic new rewards like Punishing Tristitia, Dark PVP Medic, Anarchist's Mutinous End, Solo Operator, or the charmingly vicious Junior the Shark! You also have a chance to receive the wicked new user-designed items: Golden Horns of the Demon by user Eds Montana and Aphrodite's Amethyst Ninja Band by Kid the Knight v2‏!

Okay let me put down my snack and I will show you around! Feast your eyes on these new additions featured in La Victoire:

-

Acolyte's Blessing is just the type of angel you would want on your team. She is a renowned healer and really knows her stuff. By using her staff to divine a being's state of health or sickness she can bring relief to their suffering. Amazing! She even gave me some herbs to make me feel better when I had an upset stomach; possibility from eating too many Valentine's Day candies! However, she is known to have a bit of an attitude when her teammates don’t carry their weight so stay on her good side!

The lovely limited quantity Acolyte's Blessing will be in the shop until February 13th at 9:59 AM PST or as soon as she sells out!

-

Distinct Indie Inamorato is hitting the town with some handcrafted cruelty-free style! For the worldly blogger, keeping up on the latest fashion trends is as easy as scanning your favorite OOTD hashtags!

Lapis Millennium is a charming and dainty darling who rocks tons of sweet and mystical new looks straight from, well, wherever she's from! She's here to fight against the powers of darkness and save her home! Man, this is all very vague. I get the feeling that I'm not supposed to know much more about this latest guest.

Spring Rose Wedding has the complete ensemble for the bride that loves to sparkle! For those that love fashion and drama this gorgeous gown will be sure to please! This sky blue dress was inspired by first days of spring when the blue sky begins to peek through the winter clouds and when the flowers begin to poke their heads out of the ground!

To keep your aesthetic nice and sharp, visit La Victoire before these Limited Quantity treasures leaves the shop on February 13th at 9:59 AM PST or as soon as they sell out!

10 The Sweet Candy Hearts are in!
Hiya, Gaians! Someone has been shoving boxes upon boxes of Sweet Candy Hearts under the door. I realize I have many admirers, but it’s odd that they would all decide to get me candy hearts for Valentine’s Day! Despite having eaten an absurd amount of them, I still have mountains of boxes left! I can't eat anymore! And it's such a tragedy, because they really are tasty. I'd hate to see them go to waste! Could you guys help me out with them, pleaasseee? You'll get a sweet reward out of it, I promise! Maybe even something like these fancy prizes:

-

Open up a Sweet Candy Hearts and choose between gold or lovely items like Lavender Bride, Eve's Wings, Heartfelt Rosette and exquisite Radiating Cottontail. Each Sweet Candy Heart is special and comes with its own affectionate note. If you happen to find a note from yours truly you will win up to 100,000 Gaia Cash! Just a little something just for you for helping a kitten out. Now get chowing!

10 The seal is weakening on February's Advance Chance!
It’s time to check up on our net worth and make sure it is growing in the upward direction. I have a good feeling about the February Advance Chance and have decided to take a little peek to confirm my suspicions that this investment will pay for itself several times over. Would you look at that! This item’s marketplace value has potential to skyrocket! I must say nothing warms my heart quite like growing assets.

-

What will the next Chance Item be? Nobody is quite sure, but you’ll get the first crack at it with February's Advance Chance On the day of the next CI release, you’ll be able to open your bundle and start reaping the rewards of your CIs hours before they’re released to the general public, so you can start listing items on the Marketplace when hardly anyone has their hands on them yet.

Take it from me, one of Gaia’s most intelligent investors, now is an excellent time to play the market. Don’t miss your chance to snag a sweet item and the opportunity to sell it for profit, you can’t lose!

11 Astounding New Bundles are waiting in La Victoire!
Hey Gaians! Listen up: Maybe you weren't paying attention as you waved goodbye to Gaia for the night and clicked yourself back into the "real world," (Whatever that means) but I set out on a mighty quest-- just for you! I'm sure you'll read about all the perils I faced and the friends I made in the history books one day, but for now, you can just sit back and enjoy the spoils of the journey by checking out what's new and fabulous in La Victoire:

It will be waiting for you in La Victoire until February 15th at 9:59 AM PST! You can snag some of the contents separately, but you'll miss out on a fabulous bargain and that lovely exclusive item!

The Box of Anti Valentine's Hooligan Bundle contains an intense five copies of the daring new chance item Box of Anti Valentine's along with the snarky and tough new exclusive item: That Beatup Hooligan Boy!

The Box of Anti Valentine's seems like an innocuous sweets box, but when you open it up, you'll find a spiteful stash of anti-romantic new rewards like Punishing Tristitia, Dark PVP Medic, Anarchist's Mutinous End, Solo Operator, or the charmingly vicious Junior the Shark!

Take a stroll through the newly floral scented La Victoire to meet this dainty delight before she withers away and leaves the shop on February 12th at 9:59 AM PST or as soon a she sells out!

-

H's Sketchbook is filled with art that's simply stunning -- and super trendy, to boot. You're sure to love its peculiar shading and darling poses. I wonder who's sketchbook this is, anyways. They sure are talented!

Remember, these limited quantity items won't return to the shop for at least six months, and might never return again!

That's all for today, Gaians! Although I have been hearing some strange noises coming from the peninsula. Do you suppose there's a luxury cruise line coming in, to reward me for all my adventuring and being a hero and such? I mean, not just anyone would go to such lengths to bring you these amazing items. Legends say that these items were a gift from the ancient gods of Gaia, never to be reclaimed except by the hand of the most charming, dapper, wondrous champion...

Didn't you just order those from a catalog? I mean, that's what this order receipt says.

Hahahaha...ha... That Cygnus. What a kidder! You know him, always kidding. Anyways, er, pop by La Victoire to see these before they vanish! Bye! Bye now! Get away from this announcement quickly, before dear Cygnus says something completely insane again. Bye!

11 Ships Going Down at Rina's place. Help Kanoko survive!
Hello Gaians! It's Kanoko again. Erm, well, it's been a whole year since I tried to stage an intervention and get Rina off of that crazy Dropplr site. I guess you can imagine how well that went. I begged her to log off for just a week, you know, to see if she remembered how to function in the real world. She yelled back that she had just come out to have a good time and she was feeling really attacked, or something. It's been sort of a rollercoaster ride with Rina lately. Still, we're best friends and I have to do something! If you make sure I come out of this latest rescue mission alive and sane, I'll reward you with a Cash Shop favorite, a valuable rare item, or maybe a fantastic new exclusive:

-

Rina's invited me over to dive back into the dark side of Dropplr. I'll admit, I made my own blog a few months ago, but the tags I follow are pretty mellow. Rina, well, she has a lot of really interesting aesthetic tastes. She's gone past drooling over fan-created pairings of shopkeepers and community figures and has begun dabbling in the item shipping fandom! In fact, some of the items I share with you might be a little...different. Rina can be sort of hard to understand right now, especially since she keeps littering conversations with hashtags and memes, but I think I can make it out of this alive with your help! If you want to be my first mate on this sinking ship, just stop by La Victoire to take a look at Ships Going Down. You can also check out the bundle of nine or bundle of twenty-five if you really want to join the crew! Thank you so much, guys!

Ships Going Down!

11 It's time for a Cash Shop Clean Up!
That's it, Gaians! I can't take it anymore! La Victoire is filled with amazing stuff, but the problem is it's starting to get too full. I appreciate the mountains of items because they're nice for perching, but Cygnus keeps stubbing his toe on things and it makes him even surlier than usual. So no more bursting at the seams! It's time to do a little clean up. Let's see, what are we going to get rid of? Aha! Here we go:

Virtual Idol

Good Luck Coin

Fluttering Folies

Dainty Days

Poof to Paw

Magical Transformation

Each and every one of these amazing chance items will be leaving the cash shop on February 12th at 11:59 AM PST! Be sure to stop by La Victoire and do some last minute shopping before they go! You might want to bring a mask; the dust clouds have evolved into a hazy dust fog here in La Victoire and it's a bit hard to breathe. See you soon!

12 New Limited Quantity Recolors, bundles, and more!
Heya Gaians! Did you know that they make these little squeeze bottles of concentrated flavor, intended to be used to give regular ol' water some sweetness and taste? They're pretty neat. If I'd thought of them first, I would have been a bit smarter about the marketing though. Why make your boring ol' bathtub juice taste like watermelon or grape, when you could make it taste like a beautiful artisan-crafted white chocolate mocha cappuccino with caramel swirls? Or maybe a rich catnip tea with just a hint of tuna. I guess technology just hasn't caught up with my big dreams just yet. Luckily, the realm of fashion and I are running in direct tandem-- these amazing new releases are right up my alley! Check 'em out:

-

The Risky Death Game has begun! As the legend goes, any two people who arrive in this peculiar eating and partying establishment will find themselves at odds! The stakes are high, but don't let that smoothly dressed bartender distract you from victory. There's more on the line than you can afford to lose!

Gimme Doki Doki Metal may be absolutely adorable, but this flashy fashion idol is more than just a cute celebrity. Her insanely well-choreographed dance moves and distinctively hardcore taste in only the best of metal jams means that this charming rockstar is our melting faces and stealing hearts each and every day!

Be sure to get your hands on these Limited Quantity recolors before they leave the cash shop on February 16th at 9:59 AM PST or as soon as they sell out!

-

The Ships Going Down Insane Bundle contains a hefty TWENTY-FIVE pack of the amazing new chance item Ships Going Down, along with the absolutely crazy new exclusive treasure: Insane Mad Marionette. This unique fusion of some of our most beloved sets is wonderfully peculiar!

Rina's invited Kanoko over to dive back into the dark side of Dropplr. Rina, well, she has a lot of really interesting aesthetic tastes. She's gone past drooling over fan-created pairings of shopkeepers and community figures and has begun dabbling in the item shipping fandom! In fact, some of the sets this sweet chance item shares with you might be a little...different. Rina can be sort of hard to understand right now, especially since she keeps littering conversations with hashtags and memes, but Kanoko can make it out of this alive with your help! Check out the Ships Going Down Insane Bundle before it leaves the shop on February 16th at 9:59 AM PST to show your support!

Don't forget: Some of our amazing Limited Quantity Items are leaving soon!

Tama the Warrior has joined the ranks of Gaia's most fearsome, brave, and positively adorable brawlers. The squishy little Tama you know and love has powered up into a super strong action hero, complete with irresistably cool battle attire, weaponry, and Tama's signature red panda regalia. Fight on, little dude!

You can meet the new and improved Tama the Warrior (now with 200% more opposable thumbs) by visiting La Victoire before he leaves the shop on February 13th at 9:59 AM PST or as soon as he sells out!

Well, Gaians. I'm off to the EI Labs. I know those guys specialize in researching evolving items, but I'll bet those nerds-- er, nice folk know their way around a squeeze bottle full of concentrated coffee too. I mean, with a trillion gold idea like this, it's only a matter of time before I'm winning major science awards left and right for all my good deeds towards humanity. And that's sayin' something, considering I'm not a human. While I work on my formula, feel free to head to La Victoire and check out these awesome new arrivals! See you soon!

12 Pop open the Love Trunk for some romantic Cash Shop finds!
It's the season of love, which means it's time to break out those delightfully cute-colored ensembles that have been locked away throughout the year. In fact, I know exactly where I stashed away my frightfully oversized collection of lovely sets: In this massive chest! It's been gathering dust in the attic for a while, and I think even the spiders up here are enamored with these darling finds! It would explain why I keep spotting intricate heart-shaped webs around the shop. Now that we're ready to embrace the romance in the air, let's pop this baby open and snag some treasures!

-

The Love Trunk will creak open to reveal an astounding array of La Victoire favorites in some lovely and irresistibly romantic hues! Don some of this stunning attire and the jaws will begin to drop from a mile away, maybe farther! You might pop it open to find the delicate Eternal Edebel, Fragments of You, Counterfeit Betrothed, Magical Matchmaker, Minimal Red, Pale Immortal Veil, or Ambitious Wishful Cheating, among tons more gorgeous prizes! You could also win the Mini Golden Ticket! The lucky winner who finds a Mini Golden Ticket will have a chance to work with a Gaia Artist to create a custom 3 pose item! Meowz!

With absolutely beautiful finds like this, there's no way to go wrong by checking out the amazing new Love Trunk, now available in La Victoire! For convenience, we've even made some five packs, ten packs, and thrifty twenty-five packs available. See you soon, lovebirds!

Mini Golden Ticket Rules

12 Help us eat these newly discounted Sweet Candy Hearts!
Jet: Oof. Ugh. Okay. I may have... Maybe I overdid it a little. I ate about seven hundred of those candy hearts and I'm starting to think that might not have been the best idea I've ever had. But I just couldn't stop! They're so bite-size and sweet and I look adorable stuffing them in my face on account of my super tiny size. Look at me holding this candy heart! It's almost normal size in my itty bitty kitty paws! Oh no. Now I feel compelled to eat it. No, Jet! Resist! Resist its delicate pink allure! Don't do it -- OMPHNOMPHMOM

Cygnus: Okay, Jet has clearly gone off the deep end here so I'm gonna finish this up. So, well. We've still got a bunch of Sweet Candy Hearts. Bowls and bowls of them, in fact. Jet's snacked his way through... I wanna say half? I'm not touching them -- not crazy about sweets -- and so there should be plenty left for you guys. To get them out of here quickly, before Jet eats himself into a supermassive black hole, I've gone head and discounted them by 25% off for a limited time only.

Jet: Open up a Sweet Candy Hearts and choose between gold or lovely items like Lavender Bride, Eve's Wings, Heartfelt Rosette and exquisite Radiating Cottontail. Each Sweet Candy Heart is special and comes with its own affectionate note. If you happen to find a note from Jet the Kitten Star you will win up to 100,000 Gaia Cash! What a generous little attention hog. Anyways, visit La Victoire to get started!

13 Dainty Dragonslayer & Oodles of New Bundles to Collect!
Heya Gaians! I'm starting to get that tingly feeling right behind my ears. It's sort of like the one I get when I want Cygnus to give that spot a nice scratchin', but not quite akin to the one I get when there's about to be some kind of worldwide catastrophe. Hm. I guess the only logical conclusion to draw is that whatever is going to happen today must be something smack dab in-between! While we look to the horizon for whichever mysteries are approaching, let's check out what's new in La Victoire:

-

Dainty Dragonslayer may be cute and fluffy, but this warrior is just as deadly as she is adaorable. That adorable bubblegum color scheme and her reputation for having been distinctively normal before her most recent upgrade might work against her in the dragon slaying realm, but watch out for this delicate fairy's powerful punch!

Be sure to stop by La Victoire before this precious pummeler leaves the shop on February 17th at 9:59 AM PST or before it sells out completely!



The Friday the 13th Bundle is full of suspicious tokens. Some will bring you luck! Whether it's good or bad... Well, that one's up for interpretation. Pop open this stunning bundle to receive the amazing new Sugar the Cat, Lady Affluence, Fortune's On My Side, Friday XIII, and Lucky One!

Remember, today is an important day to avoid breaking mirrors, strolling past black cats, spilling salt, walking under ladders, and at least three dozen other inauspicious acts. If you need a refresher course on what's safe to do today, just swing by La Victoire before this bundle leaves shelves on February 17th at 9:59 AM PST!

-

The [Animal] Afterdeath Dealings Bundle is full of depraved delights to help you out on your post-mortem journey! What happened to you, huh? Wander into the street? Ate a bar of chocolate? It happens to the best of us. Lucky for you, your future includes the fabulous new [Animal] Creeping Death, [Animal] Endless Grief, and [Animal] Here it Rests!

For a surprisingly charming collection of morbid treasures, snag your [Animal] Afterdeath Dealings Bundle before it leaves the shop on February 17th at 9:59 AM PST!

-

The Ships Going Down Crystal Bundle contains an astounding NINE copies of the crazy new chance item Ships Going Down along with the gorgeous new exclusive item: Beyond Crystal Moonlight!

Rina's invited Kanoko over to dive back into the dark side of Dropplr. Rina, well, she has a lot of really interesting aesthetic tastes. She's gone past drooling over fan-created pairings of shopkeepers and community figures and has begun dabbling in the item shipping fandom! In fact, some of the sets this sweet chance item shares with you might be a little...different. Rina can be sort of hard to understand right now, especially since she keeps littering conversations with hashtags and memes, but Kanoko can make it out of this alive with your help! Check out the Ships Going Down Crystal Bundle before it leaves the shop on February 17th at 9:59 AM PST to show your support!

Whew! What a big update, Gaians. I'm positively exhausted. Maybe that weird itchy feeling behind my ear was actually just a warning to let me know that there was absolutely no way I'd get to sit on my cute furry behind and nap all day. Cygnus, on the other hand, has been sleeping the day away, In fact, I haven't even seen him yet this morning. I get that he's a tad nocturnal, but this is ridiculous! If you stop by La Victoire to help me wake that big lug up, it would be much appreciated. See you soon, Gaians!

13 Eternal Bonding: Gorgeous new items for a gorgeous new life!

 * sniff* It's a beautiful day, Gaians! Oh, don't mind me. I always *sniff* cry at weddings. I'm just a hopeless romantic when it comes to sharing property and expenses. It's like, if you marry someone who stacks gold bars to the ceiling, you never have to work again. Think about it: Unlimited naps! It's just-- it's so inspiring. A new start, a new future, and some fabulous new fashion, too! Oh, just look:

-

Eternal Bonding comes in many shapes and forms. I guess a wedding outfit is supposed to be a black tux and a white dress, but where's the fun in that? Check out this chance item for a shot to score some fantastic formal finds like the romantic new Dearest Hanayome, Modish Couture Groom, Miss Desolate Spring, Rose Bride, and Gilded Immortal Veil! If you're lucky, you might also come across some amazing new user-designed items: Nietono no Shana by Shanasaur, The Almighty's Cloud by Skags, Glorious Hunger by Aizikan, or Eternally Jacked Up by Renaissance, designed in memory of the late user The_Freak87.

With all of these precious prizes to be plundered, it's no wonder people are getting hitched left and right! Stop by La Victoire to tie the knot with the charming Eternal Bonding. Hey, don't you need something blue for luck? I know a very fortunate Kitten Star in need of a cushy mansion, y'know.

13 Take a sneak peek at February's Monthly Collectibles! 2015
Happy Valentine's Day everyone!!! 'Kay, so, I know it's not really Valentine's Day just yet, but I've been reading all these great Valentine's AU fanfics and I'm SO ready for this year. All of my favorite Dropplr blogs are pinkifying their aesthetic and everything is so cuuute!! I've been showing Kanoko a lot of nifty stuff, but she keeps telling me to get back in touch with "reality." Like, what even is that? Does it have to do with these Sealed Letters on my desk...? OH! Wait! I remember those. It's like they're from a foggy dream. I think they've got February's Monthly Collectibles hiding inside! Hmmm, take a look:

-

AHHH DON'T THEY LOOK SO AMAZING?! I'm so excited that I just can't stand it! There's nothing I won't do to get my hands on those amazing new Monthly Collectibles! I'll even wait until the gosh darned stupid fifteenth if I have to. Even if it takes forever. I mean, I know it's already the thirteenth today, but it's probably going to be the longest two days of my entire life! Especially since all my favorite artists are taking FOREVER to upload their cutesy couples art. Hmph!

The February 2015 Sealed Letter and Sealed Letter Bundle for February 2015 are officially available in La Victoire, already licked, stamped, and ready to go! You just need to pick them up and wait until the fifteenth. Oooh, I hate waiting so much! But I guess the anticipation of what's inside only makes it more satisfying in the long run... Okay, everyone! Be sure to nab your letters, and don't forget to visit me at the Buttercup Cafe really soon so I can get you set up with a Dropplr account-- I need at least 200 more followers before I can host a decent sized giveaway. 'Kay bye now!

13 EI Report: My Bloody Valentine & Zodiacal: Equinox!
Hey Sciencers! It's time for yet another one of my famous Evolving Item escapades! You see, this latest specimen has advanced in such a drastic way that we couldn't hope to contain it in a mere beaker or box. In fact, we couldn't keep it in the lab at all. That's why it lives out here in this giant geodesic bio-isolation chamber, where it can be observed in all it's evolutionary splendor. If you're feeling quite fearless and altogether sciencey (that's a technical term, of course,) we can observe the amazing new changes to My Bloody Valentine together! Oh, it seem as if Zodiacal: Equinox has made some developments as well:

-

My Bloody Valentine
 * In Renaissance France was Marie
 * Fond of nibbling biscuits and brie
 * Poor Marie lost her head
 * and although not quite dead
 * One never neck-nibbles zombies

Zodiacal: Equinox: This month, the Astrolabe has turned towards the constellation Aquarius! Intelligent, concise, logical, and intuitive, the Aquarius person is well-loved and highly respected. An Aquarius is sure to bring a touch of class and dignified charm to any setting or gorgeous ensemble!

Fascinating! It seems as though we're still just scratching the surface of what lies in the mysterious inky depths of My Bloody Valentine's history. Perhaps our studies this week, along with our various pokes, prods, shocks, and chemical drips, will yield some new findings about who this dark diva is and why she likes her meat so very raw. Enjoy your romantic holiday, Gaians! We here at the labs are above such petty romantic attachments. You see, my true love is science. That said, I do secretly hope I receive an inflorescence of aromatic blooms from a love-stricken admirer... *sigh* Even the brilliant suffer from the want of a cheesy romance. Well, I'd better be off now! Be sure to stop by La Victoire to observe these Evolving Items from a closer vantage point. Good day, Scienteers!

14 New Limited Quantity Item: Deceptive Dragonslayer is here!
Hello again, Gaians! I don't know if you've noticed, but we've got a real dragon infestation problem here on Gaia.

15 For some romantic tips, try the Love Line!
Hey Gaians! Love is a tricky subject to become an expert it, because there's no class on it. Your teachers are limited to, well, people you love. I guess that makes the equivalent of passing a test getting another date. The point is: this stuff is complicated! Did you ever wish you could just send a quick text to a well-read love scholar and get some tips on wooing the cutie of your choice? Then I've got just the thing!

-

Love Line: Alright, don't ask how I got all these phone numbers, but here's the deal: Just open up this adorable chance item and one of our resident love experts will pop you a quick text message with some helpful tips on romance! Pretty nifty, right? Not only that, but they'll give you a nice encouragement present. It could be up to one trillion gold or a fabulous item that reflects your expert's personal tastes. So far, I've spotted querents snagging awesome things like Portable Stereo Headphones, D-Tail Bundle, Authority of the Devil Sea, NeoGaia Anti-Hero, [Animal] Agape's Cut, and so much more!

Just stop by La Victoire to get started. Valentine's Day may be over, but that's no reason to not polish yourself into a smooth wooing machine. Not every life skill has a spot on a resume, y'know. I hope to see you soon, Gaians!

17 Loyal's Bazaar Update: New Limited Quantity Items!
Salutations, dearest Gaians. Why, it's certainly an auspicious day for the likes of us shopkeepers. Jet & Cygnus have run rampant with their usual flamboyant displays of admittedly stunning new wares, and I hear that everyone is rather looking forward to Gaia's Anniversary fast approaching. Rather than steal the stage, I've decided to quietly and impressively slip in this wonderful update. A good performer knows when to be subtle.

18 New Limited Quantity Recolors, bundles, and so much more!
Happy birthday, Gaia! You're 12 years old today, which makes you practically pubescent! Before you get too freaked out, I guess it's time to give you the talk. You're all going to start feeling some feelings that feel, well, different. You might grow hair in some strange places. Most of all, you're going to want to start hoarding collectible shiny objects. Don't get me started on coughing up furballs and compulsively bringing home dead birds. I mean, like, wow is puberty strange! Unless those only apply to those of the feline persuasion. You know, maybe you'll just feel the urge to ring in Gaia's 12th year by snagging some fantastically cool finds from La Victoire!

Pure Like Rose may seem like a delicate blossom, but her beauty belies the thorns that lurk beneath that lovely facade. She'll tempt you with sweetness, but is her kindness merely a veneer for something crueler and more wicked? I suppose I'll never know. She won't even give me the time of day! But perhaps I'm better off simply admiring her astounding grace from afar. I'd hate to be pricked by any of those roses!

Determined Dragonslayer is a distinctively normal type. She's not fiery, energetic, wishy-washy, too pure, too dark, natural, icy cold, or even impish! Some might overlook her warm tones and delicate bows in favor of a more flashy collectible, but a dependable and kindhearted fashionista like this has the power to take down any opponent and the humility to keep on training afterwards! She's a real catch!

Be sure to take a trip to La Victoire to snag these darling new releases before they vanish on February 22nd at 9:59 AM PST or before they sell out completely!

His Dark Pocket Paw and Her Light Pocket Paw are some newly revamped versions of your favorite fluffy tale! The latest patch to the famed Pocket Paws toys has brought with it some delicate and deep new shades and tones so you can collect the rarest of Pocket Paws and nurture them to success!

The alluring Rosamund's Absolution has a story to tell, and although this delicate darling looks as though she could take on the whole world, I think she might have a hidden weakness for all things romantic. Not to say that she won't kick some serious butt, I just mean that it's so cute to have a soft spot for love! (And fabulously elegant attire, to boot!)

18 Community Update: Super Huge Segment full of Super Scoops!
Hello Gaians! Thank for tuning to Gaia 9 Action News. I'm Cindy Donovinh and we've got a massive update today! Let's dive right in:

-

A certain someone was notoriously hard to track down for an interview, which means our entire segment was delayed! As such, you missed out on hearing about last week's amazing Avatar Arena Winners! Taking first place in the Cosplay Avatar Arena was Livibrynn for a classic entry entitled "Birth of Venus!" Gorgeous! Blazing an equally bright trail, Original Avatar Arena winner Ghost Siren shook the stage with the amazing "Sumiko of the Harvest Moon!" Be sure to congratulate these fantastic victors.

-

Moving to the present, please give a warm welcome to the Original Avatar Arena Winner: Silverlight Symphony for the remarkable entry entitled "K&D: Airheaded Conceit!" This week's talented Cosplay Avatar Arena Winner is none other than Deidara-niichan, dominating the spotlight with the masterfully assembled "YGO! - Dark Magician of Chaos!" Congratulations!

To take a look at the winners of yesterday or yesteryear alike, check out the Cosplay Avatar Arena Winners Page and the Original Avatar Arena Winners Page!

Our special guest this week is Mississippi Black Velvet! You may know this personable user as one of the leading minds behind the annual user-run event and thread known as The Heart Break Cafe. The thread is known for its many contests, giveaways, and fun Valentine's Day-themed activities. I sat down with our guest for an in-depth chat:

Hi Mississippi Black Velvet! It's great to have you on the segment. Fist off, Can you tell me about the origins of the Heart Break Cafe?
 * Sure thing, Cindy! Well the cafe came about last year actually when we heard there was a possibility that there wouldnt be a Valentines day event. Staff were busy with other projects and Uncle Kenny was leaving soon so he hadnt been informed to put together an event. Cut to me hastily sending a pm to my partner in crime, Yeata Zi, and after a great deal of back and forth the Heart Break Cafe was born! We had all of about a week to whip something together but we managed and I have to say it was rather successful, more so this year since we had time to plan though.

Fantastic! What would you say makes it unique as a community organization?
 * Hrm thats a tough one, Cindy. Theres so much to me that makes HBc unique. The cafe aspect is certainly different, but you can find other cafes all over Gaia. We have light role plays going on, games, and a faithful user base. Really its the community that makes our event unique as we see all sorts of Gaians from all over Gaia joining in to take part in our event.

How has the turn out been so far? Hopefully it's been a fantastic event!
 * Weve exceeded our turn out from last year! Weve had some old friends return but new faces this year as well. We hope for an even bigger turn out next year. You heard it here kids, HBC is here to stay.

Any memorable moments you'd like to share with our audience?
 * Oh my yes so many! The one that really stuck with me so far this year was someone broke our maid Meushi. I still havent found the culprit or got the entire story but rest assured Cindy, I will bring them to justice! Last year though Finni joined us in helping out and went out of her way to make us a freebie, she didnt have to but she did and I will forever remember that.

Amazing! For out final question, I'd love to know what would you say to anyone interested in participating, volunteering, or just lurking in the Heart Break Cafe. Thoughts?
 * If youre interested in volunteering for HBC next year just keep an eye out for me to make a thread sometime in late December. Were always looking for people to help us with contests, art freebies, as well as maids and butlers to help out in the cafe. Were a friendly bunch at HBC and love nothing more than chatting with users during our event! So really no need to be shy, stop on in and have a seat, get something to eat and find new or old friends. Well be around up until the Valentines day event ends!

A fantastic look at a wonderful user-run event. Thanks, Mississippi Black Velvet! Anyone interested in hanging out to catch the final events of this year's Heart Break Cafe should definitely stop by. Their soup is fantastic, and their prizes are too! Anyone already excited about next year's should add it to their calendar today!

It's a special day, Gaians! Smack dab in the heart of the Valentine's Season, Gaia's Anniversary has arrived at last! Gaia-tan and Gaia-kun are in the spotlight as the duo hosting this year's Valentine's Event and Gaia's mascots! I decided to check in with them to see if, now that we're at the tail end of the Valentine's Event, we had made any progress. Also invited are the esteemed President Diedrich, who recently put into motion a President's Day Scavenger Hunt! Also here are some enthusiastic guests who have invited themselves into the segment. We apologize for the intrusion. Gaia 9 Action News is seeking to hire a security team as soon as possible.

Welcome, Gaia-tan! How are you feeling now that the Gaia Valentine's Event is wrapping up?
 * Gaia-tan: AWESOME! I've had so much fun, and all of the Gaians really helped me power up to maximum cheeriness, even if I couldn't get that silly Gaia-kun to admit that he likes Valentine's Day.
 * Gaia-kun: Well I had the lamest Valentine's ever. Everyone was giving me hearts and chocolates, and it was so gross. I'm so over all this lovey dovey junk. Like, okay, maybe it's sort of nice being doted on once a year, but why does everything have to be so pink?!
 * Liam: Okay little buddy. Daddy Liam's here to teach you a thing or two about courting the ladies. Now, you may not be able to tell by lookin' at me, but I'm, well, sort of a big deal around here. Rule number one: Keep your game tight and your abs tighter.
 * Kanoko: I'm reblogging that. OMG.

There seem to be a lot of opinions floating around about the overall reception of the event, but I think everyone can agree that there was a lot of spirit out there! Did anyone get any particularly lovely gits?
 * Radio Jack: Okay lady, I'd just like to say that, for the record, I accept my Valentine gifts in the form of cash, check, credit card, or legal statements of voluntary servitude. That's it. No more of this hand-drawn heart on a piece of paper crud, okay?
 * Kanoko: R-radio Jack, that's so--
 * Gaia-kun: Hey, wait, how are you still on Dropplr right now? Isn't this more important? Are you...transcribing this entire interview in real time, as we speak?
 * Kanoko: Of course! My followers want to read it!
 * Gaia-kun: This blog thing has gotten ridiculous. Who would even want to reblog this exact interview while it's happening?!
 * Liam: Heh, did you see what Gaia-kun just said? Reblogging that, bro.
 * Gaia-tan: Same. Hashtag "omg," hashtag "Gaia," hashtag, "interview."

My-- it seems as though the interview has dissolved into a somewhat chaotic scene! Staying mysteriously cool as expected is our great President Diedrich. Mr. President, any comments on your recent escapades?


 * President Diedrich: Hello. Hi. Yes. I am President Government Armed Forces Science Eternal. It is a great matter to have found my scavenger hunt prize. It is also a great energy. Did you know that I have been planning this since before any of you were ever born? It's true! Grunnies are known to have much patience and earwax, and as President, I have the most of both. I love every Gaian in this timeline and many others. OK. Bye now. Bye.

Mr. President, the interview isn't over. Where are you going? Please, sir, can you just take a seat over-- okay, well. With a cryptic response and a dramatic exit, it appears our esteemed President has decided to take his leave. And it looks like the popular social media app Dropplr has distracted my other guests almost completely, as they are all consumed with typing every word as I say it aloud, Gaians.
 * Radio Jack: A....loud...Gaians...
 * Gaia-kun: No, I think it's one word, like "Aloud."
 * Kanoko: Can we take a selfie break?

Are we done here, everyone? I have a lot more questions, you know.
 * Gaia-tan: Gaia-kun, do you like Valentine's Day now?
 * Gaia-kun:I mean... it's okay. I guess. Thanks. For the Hearts, I mean. If you've got more, I wouldn't turn them down.
 * Gaia-tan: Thought so.

Well Gaians, due to a distinct lack of interest from my guests, who would rather blog about this interview than actually participate in it, I suppose that concludes today's segment. Thank you all for joining us.
 * Liam: This wouldn't happen if I were the host. Just sayin'.

END OF INTERVIEW. Thanks!

 * My love for antler items goes back to my childhood in the North Carolina woodlands; White-Tailed bucks would come out of the woods behind my house at night and I'd stay up just to see their antlers.

18 Happy Gaiaversary!! 12 Years of Togetherness!
Good day, Gaians! In fact, it might be the best day to ever happen! As of today, Gaia Online has been around for an entire 12 years! 12 years of laughs, fun, questing, gaming, collecting, chatting, solving mysteries, winning contests, and 12 years of us appreciating you Gaians for all you do. Thanks!

What's the classic 12th anniversary gift again? Silk? Pearls? I know having gifts by year is an old timey marriage tradition, but after 12 years of being together... aren't we practically married?

On that note, Gaians, you really should begin reading up on the dos and don'ts of married life, because much like how Gaia Staff is married to their work and Gaia Online is married to you, now you can finally Marry your fellow Gaians!

That's right folks! Now it's possible to tie the knot with your favorite person, and to Divorce them if they do something unforgivable, like not commenting on your latest Journal entry or not finishing your art commission on time. You know, the important stuff!

Not only that, but you can check out La Victoire to snag some wonderful goodies to accompany this new feature! Finally, don't forget to pick up your Happy 12th Gaiaversary present in the site header. You can also check out the 12 Years of Gaia Forum to discuss your fondest memories and hope for the future, or just to hang out!

None of our amazing new updates and features would be possible without you, Gaians! 12 years and you're still the best community on the whole wide 'net. We love you guys! Happy Gaiaversary, everyone!

Get Married!

18 Loyal's Wildcard: Which NPC will be on a Body Pillow next?
Bienvenue! Welcome, my darling audience. How do you feel about magic? Oh, not the kind of runes and spells. That's a bit too obvious for my tastes, you know. I was referring to the mystical illusory magic presented by skilled sleight of hand. Watch carefully as I draw a card from my deck, and perhaps you will win something rather exquisite.

-

Loyal's Wildcard may reveal something mystifying, awe-inspiring, beautiful, or perhaps treacherous. The only way to know what you've won is to draw from the deck. There are some treasures contained inside, like the marvelous Jekyll's Morality, Halftone Hero, Pendragon's Raiment, Delicate Death, Sleepytime Bunbun Pajamas, or even the darling Perky Melody. Most impressively, though, this deck of what seems like mere cards has the power to grant you the brand new Blank Pillowcase!

And what, you may ask, would one do with a Blank Pillowcase? Why, you can exchange such a thing for the opportunity to decide which NPC will be featured on the next Body Pillow item! So charming, so comfy, so creative! Simply visit my Bazaar to try your luck. I'll be waiting, Gaians.

18 Help unseal the Gate of Olympus to earn remarkable rewards!
Humblest greetings yet again, dear Gaians. You remember the mystical gates of the past, correct? The prizes we found inside were more than enough of an incentive for me to continue my research into the mysterious portals lurking about the land of Gaia. In accordance with our prior arrangements, I've elected to share with you my latest discovery! Deep in the caverns beneath our very own President Diedrich's house, I found many, many basements. Below those, I bravely tunneled down deep into an isolated vein of pure Mysterium, an element known to collect around great sources of powerful magic. Knowing I'd found the source of all the strange happenings in my shop (my wares are quite sensitive to the presence of Mysterium, you see) I bored directly into the heart of the mine and discovered a brand new gate! I suspect it's full of precious wonders that lie just beyond the otherworldly threshold. See for yourself:

-

C'est bon, non? But here's the problem: the gate is sealed. Tightly. And while I am certainly skilled enough to unlock it, the cost of the reagents alone is simply astronomical. No, I'm afraid I won't be able to open this gate without some aid. And that is where you come in, ladies and gentlemen. Will you help a poor ringmaster put on yet another breath-taking performance? There are rewards in it for you, I can promise you that much. Every time you donate you'll inch closer and closer towards unlocking another tier of rewards, both personal and global, and who knows? With enough funds I may be able to unseal the marvelous Gate of Olympus and share all of its wonders with you. But be warned! We only have until February 23rd at 11:59 PM PST to accomplish this incredible feat.

Dig deep, Gaians, and we will unseal this gate together -- I'm sure of it! I've left a convenient portal open here just for you. Step right in by clicking the button below, or clicking on the tiny Gate of Olympus in the header there, and you'll be able to help support our quest!

19 Vague Reality, fantastic new bundles, and more!
Howdy, Gaians! Yesterday's back to back event reveal was about the biggest party I've ever been to! In fact, I feel like I went to thousands of wedding receptions all at once! The only thing missing from this shiny new marriage feature is a dedicated rock legend impersonator to do the job when you're looking to elope in a hurry. Do you think Lex would be up for the job? I hear that guy does a mean rendition of the classic hit "You Ain't Nothin' but a Rock Puppy." Anyways, before the honeymoon's over, I've got a special gift for all your couples out there: Check out the fabulous new finds that just arrived in La Victoire!

-

Vague Reality is less of a fashionable collection of dainty delights and more of a surreal experiment in style. This bold look features a stunning array of carefully detailed poses sure to accentuate any ensemble, but it may leave you feeling a bit less than whimsical.

Be sure to pick up your own Vague Reality before this Limited Quantity treasure leaves La Victoire on February 23rd at 9:59 AM PST or as soon as it sells out completely.

-

The Refreshing Bundle is full of lively new finds like the delightful Sparkle Drop, the charming Pale Mooligan, the sweet Refreshing Lychee, and the wonderful new Observant Lady of the Mist! It has that fresh-from-the-spa feel to it. A complete and total steal, in my opinion! Then again, I am prone to eating the cucumber slices rather than using them on my eyes, so maybe I don't yet have a good grasp on that sort of thing.

You can snag this luxurious bundle by scheduling an appointment at La Victoire before it leaves my shelves on February 23rd at 9:59 AM PST!

-

The Idol Club Cuts Sensei Bundle contains a slick three copies of the latest in superstar fashion: Idol Club Cuts! Not only that, but this jam-packed bundle will grant you the brand new exclusive hairstyle: Ombre Sensei's Serenading Style!

No matter which route you choose, Idol Club Cuts will ensure that you steal the heart of everyone you meet! Open it up for a chance at a totally new hairstyle that will transform your bland looks into a beacon of charm. You might walk away with the absolutely stunning new Light Diamond Princess's Twintails, Warm Sensei's Serenading Style, Dark Enchanting Maiden Locks, Cool Feel My Heart Style, or even the radiant Light Lovin' You Style, among tons other fabulously fashionable new styles! Get started by getting your Idol Club Cuts Sensei Bundle before it leaves the shop on February 23rd at 9:59 AM PST!

Before you run off and get hitched, Gaians, be sure to stop by La Victoire to pick up some formal wear. You can't expect to get married in just whatever's in your closet, right? Have some class! While I do important, sophisticated things like licking that weird spot of fur on my leg and batting at an errant ball of string, you can visit La Victoire to suit up in some respectable finery. See you soon!

Visit La Victoire!

20 Try the Year of the Sheep Ram Bundle for baa-utiful finds!
Hey Gaians! Do you know what I've aways held a secret passion for deep down in my furry little heart? Shepherding. You see, leading around a flock of sheep may not sound like the most glamorous or revered of professions, but when you really think about it, the similarities between being a herdsman and a totalitarian dictator are pretty evident! Given that I have rather high aspirations when it comes to conquering this star system and numerous others some day (Oh don't worry- it will be far, far in the future) I've really found I have a distinct fondness for a nice simple sherpherding lifestyle. Anyways, if you want to assert some unfounded authority, or just bury your face in some soft new finds, check out my latest exclusive bundle!

20 Evolving Item Report: My Bloody Valentine!
Greetings, Sciencers! You know, I suppose this is a bit of an un-sciency tangent, but with all the love in the air lately, it's getting increasingly hard to stay sane. I mean, of course my true love is Science, but that's no reason to isolate oneself from all form of loveydoveyness. Going to dinner and a movie with the concept of Science is a bit hard, you see. If there were someone out there who I felt was really my equal in depth when it comes to these sorts of matters would be the lovely Draculette. You see, much like I find solace in beakers and petri dishes, this vampiric heroine has a passion for all things rich in iron and spurting from neck wounds. I suppose we are both married to our work, so to speak. On that note, take a look below to observe the changes My Bloody Valentine has undergone as of late!

- My Bloody Valentine
 * Skelly Elly, a speakeasy dancer
 * Whose short skirts and long legs did entrance her,
 * Knocked back poisoned gin,
 * Did poor Elly right in!
 * Now she dances with a necromancer.

How quaint! I simply cannot wait for the next charming chapter of this delightful tale of love and loss to continue. Beloved Sciencers, please be sure to do all the assigned reading before our next update comes around on Friday. There will most certainly be a quiz! Meanwhile, Draculette and I are going to continue pursuing our passions in life and trying to have it all. Science, love, adventure, awards: All are completely attainable, given enough experimentation! Until next time, Scienteers!

21 Novice Tooth Fairy, tons of fabulous new bundles, and more!
Hiya, Gaians! I'm not sure how meticulous you all are about your shelves upon shelves of collectible goodies, but Cygnus here can tell when even one of his beloved dolls have been moved even a few mere centimeters from their proper resting place. So believe me when I say that this guy never misses a beat when it comes to taking inventory or scolding me on how well I clean the countertop. I mean, I'm pretty sure that if you just brush the cookie crumbs onto the floor, that makes the counter clean. What a guy. Point is, we've got these great new arrivals in the shop, but one of 'em keeps hiding chump change under our pillows, dolls, and basically anything that looks soft and fluffy. It's driving poor Cygnus mad! D'ya think you can come by and see what you can do about getting them out of here? Take a look:

-

Novice Tooth Fairy is passionate about her work, but as far as trainees go, this adorable apprentice is having a hard time learning the ropes-- or perhaps the floss. It doesn't seem that hard to figure out how to find pillows with teeth under 'em and swap it out for a few pieces of gold, but this admittedly dedicated student is still struggling to get a grasp on the concept!

Drop by La Victoire to meet this darling and daring new recruit before she leaves the shop on February 25th at 9:59 AM PST or as soon as she sells out completely!

-

The Spring Flowers Bundle contains a bunch of items with a refreshing twist! Pop open this sweet-smelling box for the absolutely charming The Blossomed Fawns, Prim Nocturnal Briar, Workshop Vera, Thursday Race, and even [Animal] Fetching Woodsy! Wow!

22 Perilous Death Game, Ursa Minor Ursidae, and more to come!
Heya Gaians! Today's morning update is short, sweet, and super spectacular. Let's get to it so that I can hurry back to my overwhelmingly full schedule of sleeping in boxes and chewing on the plastic ends of all of Cygnus' shoelaces. They're called aglets. Did you know that? I hear that their true purpose is actually rather sinister. Anyways, let's dive right in!

-

The Perilous Death Game has begun! As the legend goes, any two people who arrive in this peculiar eating and partying establishment will find themselves at odds. The stakes are high (and the steaks are dry) but don't let that smoothly dressed bartender distract you from seeking victory!

Ursa Minor Ursidae is so cute that I can hardly bear to look at it! When it comes to fluffy and chic street fashions, I think this fantastic new set should be considered the bear minimum requirement for all aspiring style savants! Judging by this craftsmanship, you'd think someone put it together through painstaking hours of sewing and detail work with nothing but their bear hands!

Be sure to stop by La Victoire to get your hands (or paws) on these fabulous new Limited Quantity recolors before they sell out completely or leave the shop on February 26th at 9:59 AM PST!

22 Visit The Deep Sea Fishing Hole for spectacular surprises!
Howdy Gaians! Now that the ice has thawed out on that Old Ice Fishing Hole, we're casting a line deep into the depths below to see just where this crazy pond leads! Honestly, I'm starting to get a little uncomfortable about this hole. It seems like every time we have a good grasp on it's nature, it becomes a deeper, scarier, and more impossible. So let's dive right in (figuratively of course) and check out what the catch of the day will be!

- The Deep Sea Fishing Hole is what we're going to have to call this from now on, I'd say! It seems as though Old Man Logan's favorite fishing spot has baffled us yet again with some mystical mysteries. I don't know what I was expecting to find when I tossed my heaviest line down to the very depths of this deep, dark pond, but I'm pretty sure it wasn't a veritable ocean of saltwater swimmers! How does that even happen?! Multidimensional portal? Magic fish? I'm not even sure I want to know. The point is, now you can toss in a line for the shot to find one of these crazy catches:

Net a cute Jellyfish and this little bundle of stinging surprises will score you a fabulous new item like Heavenly Wings, Amethyst Scythe, [Animal] Eie’s Versatility, or Nice Style For Work! you might also win tons of gold! Sadly, they don't have any actual jelly to share.

Hook a Sea Bass for the chance to win tons of gold or an amazing find like Cream Marionette, Dame Chimes Reprise, Daquiri the Alpaca, or Dark Magical Matchmaker! I hear that there's an alpaca and a tanuki out there who absolutely hate these things.

Catching a Nautilus is naut an easy task. Get it? Anyways, if you get your hands on this slimy swimmer, you have a shot at scoring up to one trillion gold or a totally awesome item like Grapefruit Ribbon Candy, Frivolous Blush, [Animal] Sweet Sailor, Innocent Thrall, or Impious Exorcist!

The Anglerfish might seem scary, but this little cutie uses the lure on its head to attract friends, not food! At least, that what I'm hoping it's for, since this lonely critter keeps handing out fabulous gifts like Maddie Hatter, Mysterious Feline, Fafnir March, Gaia-tan, or Black Mage Apprentice! It might even give you up to one trillion gold!

If you can actually reel in a Whale, consider yourself a champion among fishers! This massive behemoth of a beast loves doing tricks and playing whale-sized games out in the murky depths of the Fishing Hole. If you're nice to it, this massive sweetheart will share with you a shot at winning trillions of gold or a legendary treasure like Have Some Manners, Sandman's Fault, Pale Immortal Veil, The Puffpaw Family, or Astra: Lucky the Cat! You even have a chance at winning up to 100,000 FREE Gaia Cash!!

Stop by La Victoire to gear up and get fishing! With fishy friends as big and rare as these swimming around, you'll never have to tell a fish tale about your time out on the pond. Well, you'll have lots to tell, but they'll be totally true for once! Best of luck, and see you soon, Gaians!

This morning, I'm cooking up a lightly sweetened omelette with just a swirl of ketchup over the top, and cheese and ham stuffed inside for an eggy, gooey treat!

Ahhh. While you were browsing the new wares, I whipped up a second breakfast just for Cygnus. I'm a good pal like that, when I wanna be. Problem is, I'm not really sure what the big guy likes, so I just sort of made what we had in the kitchen. Do you think a macaroni and cheese-filled pancake topped with sour cream, pickles, and some parsley for aesthetic is gonna sound appetizing to him? Well, we'll find out once he stops throwing up the first breakfast I made for us. Poor thing can't handle his bird, I guess. You non-felines are so fragile, I swear!

23 Barton Boutique and Buttercup Cafe: Awesome new finds await!
Hi everyone! It's been a while since you've seen me, right? Haha, yeah, I've been a little reclusive lately. Rufus and I just thought it was about time to lie low, so we've been running the shop as quietly as possible. We've also been playing no small amount of nifty new board games and we've even done our best to keep our dancey dancey time to a bare minimum. Somehow, our scheme didn't work, though. You see, come Valentine's Day, we were absolutely flooded with gifts! They've been tumbling through the chimney, shoved under the door, and somehow even coming through the water pipes!

-

We've gotten so many gifts from secret admirers that well, we've just started putting them on the shelves and selling them. That means that there are new items in Barton Boutique! We even gave a bunch of the sweets to Rina to sell in Buttercup Cafe, since I don't want Rufus getting sick from stuffing his face with 'em. If you want to check out some of these super cute items, please stop by! I've got far, far too many of them, and now Rina does too!

And just a note to whoever our secret admirer is, or, more like, whoever our many secret admirers are: We're flattered! Really! But please stop sending us these frilly romantic gifts! They're great, honestly-- but we're running out of places to keep them!

24 Visit the Fantastic Circus Carnival for a marvelous reward!
Keep an eye out, Gaians! I'm trying to keep my latest chance item a secret from that creepy Ringmaster Loyal. Every time he hears "circus," or "performance," or "bug repellent," he comes running like there's no tomorrow. Jeez! That guy doesn't just steal the spotlight, he hides it somewhere far away and locks it up in an airtight vault. So be careful who you bring along to my latest amazing performance!

-

The Fantastic Circus Carnival features no clowns or acrobats. I mean, who goes to circuses to see those anyways?! I went ahead and skipped right to the main event: Exotic animals! The real stars of the stage are-- as everyone knows-- the cutest and the fluffiest! Cash in your ticket to see the show and you might win an amazing bundle featuring a brand new exclusive item like Crimson Phoenix Strike, Sweet Pink Sheep Angelique, Vicious Werewolf Strut, or Corvid March!

25 TONS of Amazing new Limited Quantity Items, bundles, & more!
Happy Paws Day, Gaians! It's been a whole year since the adorable new bases launched! I thought having all those fluffy and cute new bears, cats, dogs, and whatever the rest of you are would challenge my patience. I'm used to being the cutest cat in the room, you dig? Luckily, not a single one of you Paws punks are a match for me! Not a one! I mean, you're all darned charming and really quite fashionable, but can any of you survive in space? To celebrate the start of our brand new adventures in all things furry and fashionable, you folks rocking Animal bases get a special day to celebrate how wicked stylin' you are. I'm not even very jealous-- especially since these fabulous sets come in just my size! There are some great items for those of you with opposable thumbs as well, so let's dive right in!

-

[Animal] Rabbitan has been hopping about the shop like a rabbit on a rampage! She looks quite surly compared to most of my guests with twitchy wigglers and fluff thumpers, but it's impossible to deny that this radiant rabbit has the elegance and class of a thousand lesser bunnies. In fact, she squashes them flat!

[Animal] Dainty Dragonslayer may be cute and fluffy, but this warrior is just as deadly as she is adorable. That sweet bubblegum color scheme and her reputation for having been distinctively normal before her most recent upgrade might work against her in the dragon slaying realm, but watch out for this delicate fairy's powerful punch!

-

Mimi Neko is a totally kawaii-- that's "cute," of course-- new arrival sure to sweeten up any chic street style! This fantastic foray into feline fashion must be a festive response to Paws Day, don't you think? I just hope she didn't swipe those adorable blue cat ears from some adorable blue cat! Yikes!

Stop by La Victoire to get your hands on the absolutely fabulous [Animal] Rabbitan, [Animal] Dainty Dragonslayer, and Mimi Neko before they all sell out completely or leave the shop on March 1st at 9:59 AM PST! Best hurry-- they're going quick!

-

The [Animal] Brave Fight Bundle is full of ferocious brawlers seeking powerful foes! Open it up for the dynamic [Animal] Fighting Aura, able to punch right through steel! You'll also receive the mystical [Animal] Painted Spirit, who loves cherry cakes and kicking butt. Not only that, but you'll even get your hands on the adorable new [Animal] Ferocious Feline!

Hurry to La Victoire if you want to snag this stunning collection! This bundle will be on my shelves until March 1st at 9:59 AM PST! You can snag each new set individually, but you'd miss out on a great bargain!

-

The Magical Boi Bundle is overflowing with magical energy to transform any everyday average kid into the warlock or wizard of their dreams! It normally takes seven years and passing a few standardized tests to get this far in a magical career, but opening up this bundle will grant you the wonderful Volatile Woe, Practitioner of Vindictive Arts, Dark Magus, and Arcane Strength!

Hop through whatever portal is closest and get yourself to La Victoire to check out this delightful bundle before it magically disappears from the shop on March 1st at 9:59 AM PST!

That's all for this morning's updates, my surprisingly flealess Gaians! I hope you're looking forward to a positively awesome day here in La Victoire, because I sense that there are a couple of great new surprises to be found as the day winds on! Not to mention that I look 100% fab from every angle today. Have you ever seen such perfectly groomed fur? It's the opposite of a bad hair day! If anything, we should just rename Paws Day to Jet Day, right? Right?!

Are you that jealous? This is great. I'm having a fun day.

N-NO! I AM MOST CERTAINLY NOT--

Come to La Victoire if you'd like to watch Jet foam at the mouth like a rabid beast of pure envy. It's infinitely more entertaining that you'd think. See you soon, Gaians. Happy Paws Day.

25 Loyal's Bazaar Update: New Limited Quantity Items!
Bonjour, Gaians! Thank you for helping me open the Gate of Olympus, although it seems we may have opened a Pandora's Box of wondrous treasures coupled with the looming threat of mysterious phenomena. Why, I believe we might have actually tampered with reality to a degree! I didn't realize my magic was that strong, but combined we are most certainly a force to be reckoned with, my friends! Luckily, today is not a day of perilous interdimensional quests. It is in fact a special day of celebration in honor of the one year anniversary-- or, Pawniversary, I suppose-- of the day our Animal friends arrived to Gaia! Félicitations! Look upon what marvels I've procured for this fine occasion:

-

The new Limited Quantity Items [Animal] Bubblegum Marionette Restrung and [Animal] Creme Daisie are a dashing pair of darling delights who spend their time in my Bazaar doing delicate things, like hiding in the rafters and asking to leave. Not to say that my tent is a bad place to be, but it seems that some of the more peculiar happenings of the stage are a bit too terrifying for the faint of heart. Ah, the continuing bug problem may be a part of the sitatuation as well, I suppose. Nevertheless, these adorable animal arrivals will be in Loyal's Bazaar until March 1st at 9:59 AM PST or until they sell out-- it may be sooner than you think, ladies and gentlemen. I hope to see you there shortly!

Visit Loyal's Bazaar!

25 Poof to Paw II: The Magic Returns with Spectacular Surprises
Hey Gaians! Remember that time when I was all like, "Fwoooshhhh bwaaaah zap zap!" and I turned like a zillion and a half of my favorite item collections into super cute sets just for Paws? Oh man. That was pretty neat. A once in a lifetime kind of event, y'know? That said, I was thinking that maybe if we all just wished hard enough, I could make it happen again! Ready? On the count of three wish your hardest! One... two... THREE!

-

Poof to Paw II is here! With a lot of help from all of you (and a little help from Cygnus and his sewing machine) we've gone ahead and converted a whole bunch of our best human sets into adorable Animal items just for our Paws pals! Open up this fantastic chance item for a chance at getting your paws on the fantabulous [Animal] Becky the Grunge Kitten, [Animal] My Sweetheart Trooper, [Animal] Through the Hare Portrait, or even the new user-designed treasures: [Animal] NeoGaia Anti-Hero by Kid Jak, [Animal] Beyond Biohazard by Evente, or [Animal] El GUAPO and [Animal] Brain's COCKerel by LadyShi!

25 Having a Bad Fur Day?
Hey Gaians! Believe it or not, even I know what it's like to wake up with a headful of knots and frizz. It's tough being gorgeous and perfectly coiffured every hour of the day when you wake up looking like the Sasquatch's ugly cousin. Humans think they have it rough when it comes to bedhead, but I know that it's my animal friends who have it the worst! I mean, when you have hair on every inch of your body, you need a whole lot of detangler to sort your way through a style disaster. Sometimes it's nice to just get a fresh start. Normally, we could accomplish this by shaving ourselves totally bald and letting that lustrous shiny fur grow right back in, but I thought I'd spare you all the agony of seeing hundreds of alien-like naked Paws running around. That's why I whipped up this fabulously conveient chance item!

-

Open up a Bad Fur Day to receive a totally shiny and sleek new fur for your Animal avatar! Whether your old fur is a sloppy mess or you're just ready for an abrupt change of style or species, you can pop open this nifty chance item for a shot at winning some cutetastic new wonders like [Animal] Chocolate Koala Fur, [Animal] Red Fox Fur, Animal] Pink Time Rabbit Fur, [Animal] Caramel Tiger Fur, or even the astounding new user-designed [Animal] Sapphireback Lion Scales and [Animal] Emeraldback Lion Scales by Kid Jak!

25 Pink Bear and Black Bear Coupon Glitch
Hi Gaians! Those of you who cashed in your Pink Bear Coupon and Black Bear Coupon might have noticed that those pesky bears were handing out gold instead of Gaia Cash! We've had a stern talking to with them and they've promised to only hand out Gaia Cash from here on out.

If you redeemed a Pink Bear Coupon or Black Bear Coupon offer between 5:00 PM PST and 5:45 PM PST on February 25th and received gold from your bear instead of Gaia Cash, you will be receiving a brand new bear shortly!

Thank you for your patience while we work to sort this out.

25 Take a look at our latest sales!
How do you fend off boredom, Gaians? Cygnus and I have already played a few card games, cleaned the entire shop, threw a moderately sized party (you were invited, I promise! Did the invite get lost in the mail?) and we even organized our entire inventory by color, style, alphabetically, and in chronological order of new and shininess. What's left to do?

We could... discount some stuff?

That's a great idea! Hey Gaians, Cygnus is a total and complete genius. While he does all the fun work behind slashing our prices, I'm gonna get down to business and decide what's getting a discount. I normally do that by a highly technical game of eeny-meeny-miny-mo, but this time I'll just go ahead and choose randomly. I piiiick..... These ones! Check it out:

Hey Cygnus, have you ever been to the storage room of CrosSttich? Like, walked completely inside? I'm pretty sure Stein is out picking up fabric. How mad would he be if we snuck in?

That sounds kind of illegal.

Yeah, but how mad would he be? Would it be kind of funny?

Gaians, please hurry over. Jet's emotions have been an unpredictable rollercoaster of madness today. I'd rather not have to pay his bail. See you soon, okay?

Is this about Paws Day? Are you still jealous of all the cute cats getting more attention than you?

It's not about Paws Day!! *hissss*!

26 Limited Quantity Item: [Animal] Deceptive Dragonslayer!
Hello again, Gaians! I don't know if you've noticed, but we've got a real dragon infestation problem here on Gaia. If you're reading this right now and thinking to yourself something along the lines of: "But Jet, I haven't seen any dragons-- let alone enough to necessitate declaring an infestation!" That just means that my latest fur-covered guest is doing her job perfectly!

-

[Animal] Deceptive Dragonslayer may be cute and fluffy, but this warrior is just as deadly as she is adorable. That sweet bubblegum color scheme and her reputation for having been distinctively normal before her most recent upgrade might work against her in the dragon slaying realm, but watch out for this delicate fairy's powerful punch!

Be sure to stop by La Victoire before this precious pummeler leaves the shop on February 29th at 9:59 AM PST or before it sells out completely! Watch out for dragons on your way over. They're a real problem, I promise! You just wait 'til Fafnir comes back and freezes the whole land again. You'll wish you had this dainty destroyer around! See you soon.

26 Now in La Victoire: New Limited Quantity Items!
Hey Gaians! Good timing. I want to get your perspective on a couple of shiny new items I've managed to procure for the shop today! You see, they're not really my cup of catnip tea, but that's only because I like my items to be named things like "Jet the Kitten Star" and the yet to be fathomed "Jet the King of Gaia." Once that rolls around, I'll be a heck of a happy camper! And by camper, I mean arguably benevolent monarch commanding your eternal allegiance. But hey, although these items aren't quite what I'm shopping for, even a lobster is a mermaid to scorpions, you know? So be sure to take a look at these decidedly non-Kitten-Star-themed goodies for yourself!

-

Initiate Tooth Fairy is passionate about her work, but as far as trainees go, this adorable apprentice is having a hard time learning the ropes-- or perhaps the floss. It doesn't seem that hard to figure out how to find pillows with teeth under 'em and swap it out for a few pieces of gold, but this admittedly dedicated student is still struggling to get a grasp on the concept!

Head into the [Animal] Devil's Kitchen to meet the fabulous delight known as Mr. Rordan Gamsey. When I say delight, I'm using it as sarcastically as possible. See, dear old Rordan has a great handle on flavors and palates, but his specialty is being absolutely sour! I'm sure he could whip up a sweet surprise, but he spends all his time whipping aspiring cooks instead!

Vanishing Disguise of Shadows is a somewhat mysterious traveler who seems to be intertwined with the fate of the world in a way not yet revealed. A particularly wise person, this elusive warrior is hiding from something, or someone, but has agreed to help you out with that fashion disaster you call a wardrobe.

Be sure to stop by and check out all of these wonderful Limited Quantity masterpieces before they leave La Victoire on March 2nd at 9:59 AM PST or as soon as they sell out!

26 Flowery Fauna: Fresh and fabulous new finds!
Ah. Breathe deep, Gaians! Doesn't it smell insanely fresh out? The skies have been stormy around La Victoire, but all that water and gloom wasn't for nothing-- now we've got beautiful rainbows scattered across the clouds and a bountiful bouquet of beautiful new blooms sprouting up left and right! Cygnus and I hiked out to forest to see what we could reasonably scavenge, but it's like an explosion of natural wonder out here! Even though I couldn't find any berries or mushrooms to snack on, I sure did find a lot of amazing new items!

Hey Gaians! I'm sure by now you've taken note of all the golden-colored festivities taking place thanks to LadyShi's Amethyst Ticket! I just wish someone had tipped me off about the celebration. I mean, I wasn't expecting to wake up and find all of La Victoire coated in a thin layer of real gold.

- Strategic Escapist: This rough and tumblr brawler has been on a lot of strange quests in their day, but they somehow always manage to make it out of the fray unscathed.

Open it up to receive the charming Beyond Passionate Moonlight, Beyond Brilliant Moonlight, Beyond Courageous Moonlight, and Beyond Vivacious Moonlight!

27 The Death Reapers are here to party! (we hope)
Jet: What's new, Gaians? Don't answer that. It's a rhetorical question. Of course I know what's hip and happening-- I set the trends, not seek 'em! I do everything first, you know. The only thing I don't have plans to do before anyone else is drop dead. Bwahaha!

Cygnus: Hey-- someone's knocking at the door. You wanna get that?

Jet: Sure Cygnus, no problem! Let's just take a look through the ol' peephole and-- AHHHH! NO!!! NOPE NOPE NO WAY NO THANK YOU! *hisssss!* *yowl!* *thud!*

Cygnus: Ah. Well. Jet seems to have fainted. It's very composed of him. Meanwhile, I've invited in our guests-- it's rude to leave them waiting outside. Care to meet 'em?

-

The Death Reapers are actually pretty cool. These guys may have a dirty job, but someone has to do it! Just be glad that Hell doesn't pay your salary, Gaians. Anyways, I guess these soul-sucking (but really polite) guests just wanted to pay an innocent visit to the shop and hand out really cool brand new items like One-Sided Regard, Dark Guardian Shaman, Forest After Blue Moon, Compound Maneater, and Itinerant Hunted Ones. They've even brought along neat stuff like BRAINgerous Wings, Count BRAIN the Guapo, BRAINstachio, BRAINtoria's Secret, EPICline BRAIN, and Where BRAIN Begins designed by user B R A I N, and the BRAINtastic Wings designed by user whorie. I guess Jet's screaming kind of hurt their feelings though. Sorry guys.

Anyways, we're going to hang out and probably play cards or something. The Death Reapers will be waiting in the shop, so come check out this impressively generous chance item when you get a chance. And--uh, try not to act afraid. They're sensitive. See you soon. It's surprisingly quiet in here when Jet's unconscious. Maybe you Reapers should visit more often.

27 Evolving Item Report: My Bloody Valentine!
Salutations, Sciencers! I'm not sure if I've shared this before, but the EI Labs isn't the serious and stoic science-fueled research institution you may be imagining. You see, we've been adding a lot of wonderful policies lately to fuel the more artistic side of our employees and interns. We started off by instituting a Casual Friday. Once we realized to exactly what extent our researchers would embrace Casual Friday-- and let me assure you, it was horrific-- we put in place a Corporate Wednesday to encourage a bit more class. Of course that quickly went awry as well, as most of our safety gear was deemed too unprofessional to wear during the day. After many injury-related lawsuits, we decided that it would be much easier to just install a Dance Stomp Rotation arcade machine in the break room. Our free and open workplace environment must have spurred into motion some acts of pure genius-- You see, during a routine agitation, one of our lab technicians realized that what the solution really needed was less shaking and stirring and more dancing and grooving! After achieving a 100% perfect score on the hardest difficulty of the fastest song, the experiment being dutifully clutched by our science pioneer exploded into a complete success! Alas, so did the lab technician. Condolences to his family at home. While we here at the EI Labs have a brief moment of silence to commemorate the loss of our coworker (and our arcade machine) you can take a look at what our brave new scientific exploits have achieved!

Pretty amazing, right Scienteers? Dear Draculette has just the most awful luck in love, but each of the lovely people she reminisces about spending time with bring with them new and fabulous poses to share with us!

28 Limited Quantity Item: Daunting Dragonslayer!
Hello again, Gaians! I don't know if you've noticed, but we've got a real dragon infestation problem here on Gaia. If you're reading this right now and thinking to yourself something along the lines of: "But Jet, I haven't seen any dragons-- let alone enough to necessitate declaring an infestation!" That just means that my latest fur-covered guest is doing her job perfectly!

-

Daunting Dragonslayer may be cute and fluffy, but this warrior is just as deadly as she is adorable. That sweet bubblegum color scheme and her reputation for having been distinctively normal before her most recent upgrade might work against her in the dragon slaying realm, but watch out for this delicate fairy's powerful punch!

Be sure to stop by La Victoire before this precious pummeler leaves the shop on March 3rd at 9:59 AM PST or before it sells out completely! Watch out for dragons on your way over.

01 Crane Empress, new bundles, and more!
Howdy Gaians! Is it morning already? It's a little embarrassing, but I found out that my favorite streaming service totally just made one of the most beloved cartoons from my kittenhood available to watch, so I marathoned the whole thing straight through. I told myself I'd stop after just one or maybe twelve episodes, but I blew both of those milestones right out of the water and here I am, still awake! While I try to figure out some level of moderation when it comes to absorbing nostalgic media, you should definitely take a look at today's fabulous new releases!

Thanks for joining Gaia 9 Action News on this beautiful day, Gaians! There's always a great new story about to break here in Gaia, so please let me, your intrepid host Cindy Donovinh, be your guide as we dive right into the exciting new happenings taking place today. Let's begin!

-

This just in, Gaians: In an exciting turn of events, one of Gaia Online's talented developers has stepped forward to give us an exclusive behind the scenes interview! You've been requesting the appearance of some of Gaia Online's best and brightest, so we pulled out all the stops and tracked down this elusive hero for a sneak peek at the inner workings of our favorite website. Please welcome the amazing codemonkey37179 to the segment!

Welcome codemonkey37179! It's great to have you here. A lot of our readers definitely know who you are and even the ones who don't have surely experienced some of your handiwork around the site. For the Gaians who haven't had the pleasure of running into you in the forums, let's begin with an introduction! Who are you, codemonkey37179? What do you do for the world of Gaia? I'm sure our newcomers are dying to know!
 * Hi Cindy, Thank for having me. Basically, I'm a programmer, or dev here at Gaia. I take care of the virtual worlds and games, though for the last year I've been handling a lot of code for the events.

Great! Now for the burning question everyone's dying to ask: What has been your favorite project to work on? On that note, have any of our beloved virtual worlds, games, or events been particularly dreadful to deal with?
 * My favorite project is usually whatever I'm working on at the moment, but historically I guess Towns 2 was what I enjoyed the most. I had worked on virtual worlds at other companies, but this was the first time I had built one from the ground up. As far as anything dreadful to deal with, not really, although when some of the community discovers a way to get the program to do something I overlooked, well those are my facepalm moments. We have a very clever community. Not much gets past them.

That we do! And speaking of the community, is there anywhere on Gaia that you feel most at home? Are there any forums you frequent?
 * Well, I start every morning with site feedback and bug reports, but from time to time, I go over to the international forum. I love to travel, but when I can't I like to meet people from around the world.

All you forum regulars had better keep a keen eye out for codemonkey37179! Before we bring this interview to a close, I'm sure we'd all love to know: Can you give us any hints about the latest and greatest project you're currently developing?
 * I'm working on something right now, that the community has been asking for, well, about 2 years now. I expect it to be done by the end of April, maybe sooner. I'll leave it to the community to guess what it is. They usually get it right.

Theorists take note! Now for a fun one: Do you have any memorable stories about working at Gaia?
 * I remember switching San Joses for one ATA, by answering questions from Costa Rica. That was fun. My first year I refereed the quick draw nerf gun fights during March Madness, we also had duck races in the fountain and scooter races. I think that may of have had something to do with our having to leave our old office...


 * My first week I was having lunch, and I didn't know anyone yet. Someone sat down next to me and introduced himself. I told him my life story and then asked him his. I was trying to keep up with what he was saying, nodding along, until he said, "And that's when I started Gaia" That's how I met Lanzer.

Wow! The Lanzer?! Amazing! It sounds like a lot goes on behind the scenes at Gaia Online. Thank you for all that you do to keep our happy community up and running, and an extra special thank you for sharing your time and stories with us today!

If you enjoyed this special interview with one of Gaia's most talented staff members, let us know! Until next week, Gaians: This is Cindy Donovinh, your intrepid reporter, signing out. Please don't forget to visit the Community Update Thread to vote in our poll and suggest some aspects of Gaia to feature in an upcoming Community Update! Your post might be randomly selected to win our weekly Shout Out contest, and you will get the chance to have a one sentence quote included in a future Community Update!

02 Check out what's hip and happening in La Victoire!
Hey Gaians! Now, I don't want to be a cliche, but I have to say: I hate Mondays. I know, I know: a cat who hates Mondays and absolutely loves lasagna... but what can I say? Lasagna is the delicious layered cake of pastas. If anything, you could slap some candles on a nice big dish of lasagna and make your party twenty times better! Anyways, the fact of the matter is that I really hate Mondays. I know you guys probably do too, so I did my best to make the transition from weekend to grueling soul-wrenching toil as super prize-packed as possible! Check out what you can find in La Victoire:

-

Apprentice Tooth Fairy is passionate about her work, but as far as trainees go, this nifty novice is having a hard time learning the ropes-- or perhaps the floss. It doesn't seem that hard to figure out how to find pillows with teeth under 'em and swap it out for a few pieces of gold, but this admittedly dedicated student is still struggling to get a grasp on the concept!

Adorkable Mimi Neko is here at last, nya~! Woah. Wait. Why did I say that?! Don't tell me that even I'm falling for her feline charms! This adorable cat collector loves all things cute and couture, which makes her taste totally impeccable if I do say so myself.

Be sure to stop by La Victoire to check out these adorable arrivals before they leave the shop on March 6th at 9:59 AM PST or as soon as they sell out!

-

The Flowery Fauna Aries Bundle contains a delightful five copies of my refreshing new chance item Flowery Fauna! Wow! It also includes the absolutely wonderful new exclusive masterpiece: Fiery Prince Aries!

With Flowery Fauna comes flowery fashions courtesy of Mother Nature. Try your luck with this awe-inspiring chance item for a chance to win some stunning surprises like Workshop Kara, Prince Aries, Golden Bramble Blossoms, Sweet Hydrangea Dream, Lily of the Valley, or even the absolutely adorable Magnolia the Lamb! Visit La Victoire to stock up on camping and foraging supplies, and then head out to the woods with the Flowery Fauna Aries Bundle before it leaves the shop on March 6th at 9:59 AM PST or as soon as it sells out!

Remember Gaians: One of our fabulous Limited Quantity Items is leaving soon!

Strategic Escapist: This rough and tumblr brawler has been on a lot of strange quests in their day, but they somehow always manage to make it out of the fray unscathed. That's especially great news because it would be an absolute pity for fantastically practical and stylish couture like that to get torn in battle or covered in blood! Actually... it might look even cooler coming in blood...

Track down Strategic Escapist by visiting La Victoire before this bold arrival dashes away from the shop on March 3rd at 9:59 AM PST or as soon as it sells out!

Hurry to La Victoire to take a closer look at all of these absolutely fabulous new finds! Until you get here, I'll just be napping in this box and teasing Cygnus. Don't worry-- if it's just in thought bubbles, he can't hear it anyways, right? See you soon!

02 Beware the Ides of March! You may die of cuteness!
Now, I don't put much stake in prophecies or fortune cookies or really anything that tries to boss me around. "Beware the Ides of March"? Pfft. Who does that soothsayer think they're kidding. I mean, what am I-- some kind of ancient warrior king? On second thought... I kinda like the sound of that! In fact, starting right now, you can all regard me as the King of La Victoire. It's not like I knew this would happen one day, but I did put together a little inaugural parade to celebrate the occasion quite a while ago. Happy coincidence, right?

-

Pop open the vaguely ominous new Ides of March to receive a stunning new addition to the popular March series of items, or a beloved favorite! You might find yourself stomping away with the absolutely darling Mr.Shark March, Otter March, Sloth March, Spring Bunny March, King's Strut, or the fantastic new Quokka March, designed by user CaptainTapole!

Hurry to La Victoire to join the parade and take a home a fabulous March item! You can also snag a nifty five pack or a thrifty ten pack! But watch out-- I hear that some of these cute subjects might have a bit of a rebellious streak. See you soon, Gaians!

02 Check out the Flight of Fairies for a magical new bundle!
Hey Gaians! Clap your hands if you believe in fairies! Go on, louder. No, seriously. Louder. C'mon, you can do better than that. Wow.

Good job! Keep it up! Perfect!

-

02 Get a headstart on March's CI with Advance Chance!
Greetings Gaians! I'm not sure this exactly what you were expecting to be asked about, but it's really a rather pressing question: How do I look? I know what you're thinking: Brilliant, talented GRS tax hero Ivan, asking about something as petty as appearances? Let me just preface this humble request by reminding you all that I maintain a very rigid workout regiment. Why, from having stuck to an extremely specific routine-- scheduled down to the second of course-- I've achieved some amazing advances! I've gone from being hardly able to lift a single meager beginner's tax manual, only a meager 6,500 pages or so, to being able to readily bench press an entire industrial fax machine with just one arm. I'm just wondering how obvious it is that I've been working out. You see, I'll need all the intimidating strength I can get to painstakingly wring each and every piece of gold from any potential tax evaders this season. On that note, for all of my delightfully cooperative citizens, I've left a particularly frugal package waiting for you in La Victoire.

What will the next Chance Item be? Nobody is quite sure, but you’ll get the first crack at it with March's Advance Chance! On the day of the next CI release, you’ll be able to open your bundle and start reaping the rewards of your CIs hours before they’re released to the general public, so you can start listing items on the Marketplace when hardly anyone has their hands on them yet.

You can retrieve this parcel of thrifty wonders from La Victoire for a modest delivery fee. As a note, I would like to formally mention that this is, of course, in no way considered a tax deductible expense, as much as some of you might like it to be.

Visit La Victoire!

Hey Gaians! Did you know that some places are giving out pancakes by the kitten caboodle for absolutely free today?!

You mean the kit and caboodle.

Whatever! You're really missing the point here pal: Free pancakes. Free! It's like, they set down a big ol' plate of steamy flapjacks all covered in butter and syrup, and then you eat it, and then you just leave! It's crazy! I've already been to all of the different breakfast joints around the area. You'd be hard pressed to find a pancake in Barton that isn't currently in my belly, so good luck trying to score any for yourself. Speaking of sweet scores, by the way, you delighful Gaians should take a minute to check out all the latest finds that have just arrived to La Vicoire!

Cygnus isn't much a fan of sweet things-- mostly because he's a big ol' stick in the mud-- so he'll be around to ring you up. He's also a great guy to call when you're getting thrown out of a family diner for drinking glassfuls of syrup and devouring their entire stock of breakfast food! Just in case you ever needed the hand, you know. Anyways, I'm off to seek my food-related fortunes! See you soon!

03 Check out the Watery Jewel for some gorgeous gems!
Hey Gaians! I was out on one of my routine spelunking missions in the vast network of caves situated just below the shopping district-- I've mentioned those before, right?-- and I happened to come across something, well, a bit remarkable! Now, I fished this shiny little doodad right out of a chunk of ice. See, that's the weird part: Where did the ice come from? I mean, the cavern was actually kind of toasty, but there was this perfect stalagmite-shaped cone of ice poking right through the dirt, and stuck inside was this mystical-looking gem! It was obviously pretty important, so I was torn between two decisions: Leave this important magical relic in it's fated resting place, or take it home and pawn it for some cold hard cash? Needless to say, I think I made the smart call on that one-- which is why you can buy it in my shop starting right now! Booyah!

-

The Watery Jewel seems to have some kind of aquatic aura about it! Every time I turn around, its spawning more and more amazingly cool-colored collectibles! It's only been here for a few minutes, but so far I've spotted the awesome Fish Bundle, Froggy March, Rosamund's Absolution, Beyond Brilliant Moonlight, Comfy Blue Bundle, and two new exclusive items: Angelic Immortal Veil and Nymph Aurae! Pretty amazing, right? You could also win tons more sleekly toned surprises, or even the astounding Perfect Parcel, which can be exchanged for any equippable item on Gaia that isn't limited quantity! Wow!

Hurry over to La Victoire if you want to try your luck with this mystical relic! It keeps making these weird humming sounds like it's gonna explode or something, so you should probably put a rush on it if you want to score these sweet prizes before whatever mystical aether this thing came from calls it back. See you soon!

04 Tons of new Limited Quantity Recolors and a new Bundle!
Hey guys! It's March the 4th, so let's march forth and storm our way into a fabulous new day at La Victoire! Did you like that pun? I worked on it all night. That's not a joke either-- just ask Cygnus!

Its true. I got no sleep due to Jet's incessant cackling the entire night. I'm not even sure if the words I'd need to express my relief that this ordeal is over have even been invented yet. I'd like to go back to bed for a few hours, so let's speed through this update as efficiently as possible, okay?

Well said, Cygnus! You sure are a good wordster... or should I say word-star?

That's not even a word. Neither of those are words, and your joke makes no sense. Gaians, please direct your attention to our new arrivals:

-

[Animal] Determined Dragonslayer is distinctively normal. She's not fiery, energetic, wishy-washy, too pure, too dark, natural, icy cold, or even impish! Some might overlook her warm tones and delicate bows in favor of a more flashy collectible, but a dependable and kindhearted fashionista like this has the power to take down any opponent and the humility to keep on training afterwards! She's a real catch!

Be sure to stop by La Victoire before this precious pummeler leaves the shop on March 8th at 9:59 AM PST or before it sells out completely!

-

Adamant Shade of a Beast: "There is a patience of the wild-- dogged, tireless, persistent as life itself." This spooky yet serene new Limited Quantity treasure features some bold looks for all you daring fashionistas out there. Be careful out there, Gaians. Whether the road you take is less traveled or well-worn, you're sure to encounter some dangers ahead.

User Image Bubblegum Street Style is a charming new addition to my collection! This Kitten Star has a serious eye for talent, so I didn't hesitate at all when I asked (okay, begged) her to take a break from strutting her sensational style to share her fashion fabulosities with us at La Victoire!

Be sure to snap a quick selfie with these famously fashionable new finds before they leave the shop on March 8th at 9:59 AM PST or as soon as they sell out!

-

The Ides of March Wanko Bundle contains a staggering five copies of my eerie new chance item, Ides of March! It also contains the irresistibly adorable new exclusive treasure: Mr.Wanko March!

Pop open the vaguely ominous Ides of March to receive a stunning new addition to the popular March series of items, or a beloved favorite! You might find yourself stomping away with the absolutely darling Mr.Shark March, Otter March, Sloth March, Spring Bunny March, King's Strut, or the fantastic new Quokka March, designed by user CaptainTapole! Pick up your Ides of March Wanko Bundle before it sells out or leaves the shop on March 8th at 9:59 AM PST to begin!

Alrighty, Gaians! That's the lot! Pretty amazing, right? If you make it to La Victoire soon, you can even sit down and watch what very well could be the best and most cleverly composed comedy routine you'll see in your entire life, courtesy of your best pal Jet. I may be a Kitten Star, but I'm also a superstar!

That's-- that's not even a joke! Argh, I'm going back to sleep. I'll see you sometime this evening, Gaians. Thanks for joining us for this morning's antics.

Visit La Victoire!

04 Join the Adventuring Heroes on an epic quest for loot!
Okay, Gaians. Here's the scene: There's a dark cloud of pure miasma drifting its way down the side of a volcano. At the top of the mountain is the dark lord Reznal the Destroyer. He's a pretty bad guy. Er, bad like evil, y'know? Not bad like cool. For the record, he isn't cool at all. Anyways, Reznal is leaking out a poisonous fog across the land and it's up to you and your ragtag band of misfit merrymakers to band together at the behest of your noble king to defeat the powers of evil and save the land! On the way, you'll encounter loads of enemies-- both monster and man alike. You'll make friends, you'll meet important figures, and heck, you might even gain some sweet new powers. Now roll for your stats, load up on sugary sodas, and snag this sweet chance item so we can set forth!

04 Limited Quantity Item: Cursed Tower Haunt!
Hey Gaians! I know that many of you creep in here while Cygnus and I are still sleeping to get a sneak peek at each day's new releases. Consider yourselves caught! If that's not you sneaking around the shop in the early morning, rattling windowpanes, slamming doors, and eating all of the raisin bread, I guess it means we have a poltergeist problem. I suppose that would explain a few of the stranger happenings in La Victoire lately. Namely, where this creepy cutie came from!

If Cursed Tower Haunt is the one who has been pulling pranks on Cygnus and I, it's safe to say that this ghastly ghostie's hobbies include things like changing the WiFi password at random, reorganizing the fridge, sawing the legs of all my tables and nightstands, and... wait.. scrubbing the bathroom floor to perfection? Woah, Nice! Thanks Cursed Tower Haunt!

If you'd like a horrible haunter as mischievous and somehow sweet as this one looming about the dark corners of your inventory, simply visit La Victoire to nab one for yourself before this Limited Quantity masterpiece leaves the shop on March 8th at 9:59 AM PST or as soon as it sells out! See you soon!

05 Limited Quantity Items: Synchronous Moonlight and Sunlight!
Hey Gaians! You know, most people and their best friend click like they were made from the same mold. They share things like shoes and secrets. They wear cutesy matching bracelets sometimes, or sometimes they just say the same things at the same time! So cute! I hear all these stories about everyone and their perfect match and it makes me a little insecure, y'know? I mean, of course I'm the most adorable, perfect, brilliant, and refreshingly humble champion to ever grace this classy boutique, but Cygnus and I are-- well, we're nothing alike! You see, Cygnus enjoys organizing shelves and reading books on quantum theory or something equally useless, while I like to focus on the important things, like napping and chasing balls of string across the floor. We're kind of a mismatched pair! Luckily, my latest Limited Quantity arrivals have been teaching us a thing or two about all this friendship junk and it's really starting to make sense. Check 'em out!

-

Synchronous Moonlight and Synchronous Sunlight are as contrasting as, well, night and day! They used to be totally the same when they were kids-- really normal folk, I hear-- but over time they evolved to be entirely different folk than when they started! Synchronous Moonlight loves to go spelunking around abandoned buildings and pick fights with anyone who crosses this midnight marauder. On the other hand, Synchronous Sunlight prefers to learn about the world from the comfort of a nice cozy armchair, but won't hesitate to lay a wicked beat down on anyone who crosses them. How these two adorable arrivals manage to be the best of pals is beyond me!

Well, if the only thing Synchronous Moonlight and Synchronous Sunlight have in common is the ability to kick tons of butt, I guess Cygnus and I are better off than I thought! I mean, we both love bringing fabulous new deals to La Victoire, we both like to fight over who has to clean the shop, and we're both from space! Top that! Hurry on down to La Victoire if you'd like to meet these fantastic new guests before they leave the shop on March 9th at 9:59 AM PST or sell out completely. See you soon!

05 Limited Quantity Item: Synchronous Eclipse!
Hey Gaians! Oh boy, have I got a treat for you! So, it took a little bribery and a whole lot of persuading, but I convinced a rather elusive guest to join us for the evening. I'd like to say that they'll be spending the night, but something tells me they don't enjoy watching the sunrise as much as the rest of us do. Please be polite when you meet them!

06 Now in La Victoire: New Limited Quantity Recolors and more!
Happy Friday, Gaians! Got any big plans for upcoming weekend? That's a great question to ask someone if you want to figure out who they really are. You just never really know someone until you know what they do off the clock, y'know. It's like how Admin spends hours making collages of cats out of hundreds of smaller pictures of cats, or how Nicolae does... well, Nicolae things. And have you ever seen Lex on a weekend?! That guy's not a party animal-- he's a party beast! Cygnus and I are going to have a tame time, I think. We'll be bringing you awesome new La Victoire updates as usual, and I'm pretty sure there's a nice big sardine and mushroom pizza in our future! But while we figure out all the gritty details about how thick the crust will be and which soda to stock up on, you can take a minute to check out all the great new finds in La Victoire!

Balanced Mimi Neko is here at last, nya~! Woah. Wait. Why did I say that?! Don't tell me that even I'm falling for her feline charms! This adorable cat collector loves all things cute and couture, which makes her taste totally impeccable if I do say so myself.

Ursa Minor Kochab is so cute that I can hardly bear to look at it! When it comes to fluffy and chic street fashions, I think this fantastic new set should be considered the bear minimum requirement for all aspiring style savants! Judging by this craftsmanship, you'd think someone put it together through painstaking hours of sewing and detail work with nothing but their bear hands!

06 Limited Quantity Item: Bold Synchronous Moonlight is here!
Hey Gaians! Can you imagine my surprise when I started to prepare my lunch and cracked open the fridge to find a strange new guests hiding between the milk and the leftover lasagna?! I mean, this newcomer doesn't seem to be a fan of the sunlight, but I like to think of La Victoire as being a sophisticated level of dimness. I managed to coax this adorable arrival out into the shop by promising to keep the curtains drawn, the doors closed, and all the lights at minimum brightness, so if you approach the shop and find it a tad uninviting, just blame this overly cautious cutie:

06 Alchemy Update: Astra: Dancing Flower Party & Bee March!
Ah, well. Hello? I don't use this announcement system much because I truly have very little to explain to you all. You see, I simply have neither the time nor the brightly colored visual guides necessary to begin explaining to you the matters I deal with on a daily basis. The important part is this: I've a few new formulas available for aspiring alchemists to try their luck with. If you need me to repeat that more slowly and with carefully sustained eye contact, I understand. For those of you following along at a reasonable pace, take a look at what I've discovered:

-

The Astra: Dancing Flower Party is just that: a mildly unsettling and disgustingly cheerful array of happy little animated sprouts swaying along in unison. It's lovely, yet somehow foreboding, wouldn't you say? The bright and energetic Bee March chugs along merrily, never stopping to eat, sleep, or tie her shoes. Whether that's a selling point or a concerning side effect of the alchemical process, we'll never truly know. Take some time to perfect your craft by visiting me at The Bifrost when you have a moment if you would like to construct one of these new items for yourself. Carry on.

Visit The Bifrost!

06 Check out the Luminous Spectrum for prismatic new prizes!
Hey Gaians! What do you see when you gaze into the endless sky? The reasonable among you might say birds, or planes, or passing superheroes. Personally, I look up and see the clouds all shaped into surprisingly clear imagery. Why, one time I looked up into the sky and it clearly said, "Will you marry me?" I yelled back a resounding no, of course, because there's just no way a cloud and I could make it work. I'm a little too solid to keep up with a breezy vapor babe. Cygnus said something about it being the work of a skydoodler and it not being for me or something equally ridiculous, but I know the truth: I broke a cloud's fluffy white heart that day. Ahhh, I have some fond memories of looking to the heavens. In fact, there's a gorgeous rainbow above us right now! Wait, maybe two rainbows? Or is it a shooting star? Oh man, it's like... a double complete star-bow! Hurry, check it out!!

-

The Luminous Spectrum is so lovely! I know what you're thinking: "Hey Jet! Isn't it morally wrong and physically impossible to capture an optical illusion made by light refraction in a cute little jar to sell in your shop?" Well, I've got a comeback for that and it's a great one: Have you SEEN the adorable items stuffed inside this thing?! Look-- you can open it up to receive a stunning new recolor of one of our past Limited Quantity Items!! I spy the new Delicate Mimi Neko, Chilly December M, Azurite Millennium, Creme Kuppa, and No Definite Trouble floating around! Lucky Gaians might even win the astounding new user-designed treasures: Angelic Armory by Serenicus, Kitty's Belle by Katception, OMG QT by Terriah, or the Trollcandy Lavender Headphones by lost in the rhythm!

Hurry to La Victoire to get your hands on this fabulous new chance item before it fades away. I can't wait to see you all decked out in shiny celestial goodies!

06 Take a sneak peek at the next Chance Item!
Hello again, Gaians. You'll be happy to know that I incorporated your feedback from our last meeting and increased my workout routine to 12 hours per day of nonstop bicep curls while holding a rather large brick of gold smelted from your federal tax payments. I can now reasonably flex my arm in such a way as to shatter an entire watermelon into tiny, delicious shards... from across the room. That's right, folks. My muscular density has become so great thanks to my devoted training that I now experience a strange involuntary leakage of pure energy, and the things around me tend to collapse into nonexistence. I've gone through six fax machines in the last week just from the ambient power my body now releases at a steady rate. That said... How do I look? I mean, for an accountant. Er, well, before you answer that, we should probably take care of the business that brought me here. You see, there's been a bit of a technical error and a special sneak preview of this month's Chance Item has been made public! See for yourself:

-

Should you like to get your hands on the contents of this amazing new chance item before everyone else, you can simply pick up March's Advance Chance from La Victoire. On the day of the next CI release, you’ll be able to open your bundle and start reaping the rewards of your CIs hours before they’re released to the general public, so you can start listing items on the Marketplace when hardly anyone has their hands on them yet! It's a fantastically frugal way to flex your financial muscles. Oh, but do practice moderation. Otherwise every cell phone you speak into will explode into a pile of dust in your hand. *sigh* Perhaps it's time I find another hobby to busy myself with. Stargazing perhaps?

06 Evolving Item Report: My Bloody Valentine!
Greetings, Sciencers! It's a lovely, science-filled day here at the EI Labs. We found a way to improve company morale by tenfold and our production has gone through the roof ever since! Instead of actually performing experiments or making scientific advances, our latest theory supports the idea that progress can be made almost entirely in the mind. No need to run tests or verify your findings, just imagine that you did! Why, we've managed to cure almost every major disease (theoretically,) solve all problems of world hunger (theoretically,) and we've even figured out the secret to perpetual motion (theoretically!) The only people still doing physical experimentation are the lowly interns, whose delicate yet studious minds can't quite comprehend what we advanced engineers are working on (theoretically.) So while us enlightened science masters keep trudging forward with our difficult mental labors, please enjoy what the interns whipped up:

-

My Bloody Valentine


 * Madam Anne’s love of whips sometimes stumped her,
 * Bruises certainly didn’t affront her,
 * But some nights Drak did need
 * To stay home, drink tea, and read,
 * So Anne found a new girlfriend and dumped her.

Another gripping addition to the tale of dear Draculette. Perhaps we should consider rewarding the interns for delivering us such a fascinating new installment, but we wouldn't want them get cocky and start asking for paid time off, or weekends, or a lunch break. So we'll simply admire their hard work from afar and toss small candies into the chemical storehouse they've set up shop in. Congratulations, dear protégés! And congratulations to all my aspiring Scienteers out there as well. If you'd like to examine this experiment a tad more closely, grab your thickest notepad and at least three mechanical pencils. You'll need them! Once you're ready, visit La Victoire to get started. Happy sciencing!

06 Limited Quantity Item: Domineering Dragonslayer!
Hello again, Gaians! I don't know if you've noticed, but we've got a real dragon infestation problem here on Gaia. If you're reading this right now and thinking to yourself something along the lines of: "But Jet, I haven't seen any dragons-- let alone enough to necessitate declaring an infestation!" That just means that my latest fur-covered guest is doing her job perfectly!

-

Domineering Dragonslayer may be cute and fluffy, but this warrior is just as deadly as she is adorable. That sweet lavender color scheme and her reputation for having been distinctively normal before her most recent upgrade might work against her in the dragon slaying realm, but watch out for this preternatural pummeler's powerful punch!

Be sure to stop by La Victoire before this dainty destroyer leaves the shop on March 10th at 9:59 AM PST or before it sells out completely! Watch out for dragons on your way over. They're a real problem, I promise!

06 Some fabulous chance items are now even better!
Hey Gaians! I was strolling through the vast and seemingly endless aisles of La Victoire and I had a thought: How can I make all the great stuff in here even better? I tried a few things to spice 'em up: Doused them in gold paint, super glued a couple of extra shiny rhinestones to them, and unleashed a small storm of glitter upon the shop. None of it really seemed to do the trick, so I went with my last resort option and discounted some of my favorite chance items! Not only that, but I upped the chances on Project Companion as well! Take a look at what's new:

The chances to win a Ruby Ticket from Project Companion have been increased to THIRTY-FIVE times the normal rate and Project Companion bundles are discounted for a limited time only!

08 New Limited Quantity steals, a new bundle, and more!
Hey Gaians! I spent all of this morning polishing up my look so I could bring the impact of maximum cuteness to the table when we had our morning meet up. Is it working? What if I make that quintessential cat face everyone loves? I'll just tilt my head like so and... BAM! Nothing? Jeez, I really need to add some new flash and glamour to this act, otherwise it might be hard to keep you coming back! Alright, I think I've got just the thing. I'll put my weapons of mass adorableness right on the shelves of La Victoire! Check 'em out!

The Luminous Spectrum is so lovely! I know what you're thinking: "Hey Jet!

Look-- you can open it up to receive a stunning new recolor of one of our past Limited Quantity Items!!

08 Limited Quantity Item: Calm Synchronous Sunlight!
Hey Gaians! Oh boy, have I got a treat for you! So, it took a little bribery and a whole lot of persuading, but I convinced a rather elusive guest to join us for the evening. I'd like to say that they'll be spending the night, but something tells me they don't enjoy watching the sunset as much as the rest of us do. Please be polite when you meet them!

Calm Synchronous Sunlight is a brilliant and gleaming new arrival who thrives in light and order. This swiftness and wit of this stunning new treasure shines as bright as the sun itself! If you're looking for a reliable and sleek new partner, this radiant new arrival is the perfect match!

08 Check out the Fiery Jewel for some hot new finds!
Hey Gaians! I was out on one of my routine spelunking missions in the vast network of caves situated just below the shopping district-- I've mentioned those before, right?-- and I happened to come across something, well, a bit remarkable! Now, I fished this shiny little doodad right out of a puddle of lava. See, that's the weird part: Where did the lava come from? I mean, the cavern was actually kind of cold, but there was this perfect circular pond of pure magma bubbling up, and floating inside was this mystical-looking gem! It was obviously pretty important, so I was torn between two decisions: Leave this important magical relic in it's fated resting place, or take it home and pawn it for some cold hard cash? Needless to say, I think I made the smart call on that one-- which is why you can buy it in my shop starting right now! Booyah!

-

The Fiery Jewel seems to have some kind of blazing aura about it! Every time I turn around, its spawning more and more amazingly hot-colored collectibles! It's only been here for a few minutes, but so far I've spotted the awesome Punishing Vanagloria, Fallen Star's Resurgence, Wasteland Mercenary, [Animal] A Little Diabolical, Minimal Red, Bloody Fighter, and the amazing new exclusive Vagabond Hunted Ones, Overtly Mad Marionette, and Dastardly Dragonslayer!

Hurry over to La Victoire if you want to try your luck with this mystical relic! It keeps making these weird humming sounds like it's gonna explode or something, so you should probably put a rush on it if you want to score these sweet prizes before whatever mystical aether this thing came from calls it back. See you soon!

10 Now in La Victoire: New Limited Quantity recolors & bundle!
How do you start your day, Gaians? Do you arise at the crack at dawn effortlessly and relish in your efficient and thorough morning routine, or are you the type that wakes up 10 minutes after sleeping through the alarm and rolls out of bed and into whatever clothes are clean, only to dash out the door with nary an instant of preparation? Either way, I hope you find the time to eat a good breakfast! I wouldn't want you looking at these new Limited Quantity items while you're too hungry. For their safety, of course.

Wishful Crane Empress: "Who has seen cloth as lavishly beautiful as that which she weaves? Too many try to pry out the secret of her inhuman talent, and all the while she grows weaker and weaker..." How cryptic! This hauntingly beautiful new arrival is full of glorious and elegant new looks to share.... but at what cost?

Bubblegum Creme is an adorable delight straight from a strange fungal kingdom. It sure was hard to track her down! Every where I went, it seemed like she was actually in a different castle. Not only that, but all these weirdly angry turtle creatures were so defensive about letting me get to her. I can see why, though: This item is a stunning treasure that just can't be beat!

Be sure to visit these items at La Victoire before they leave the shop on March 14th at 9:59 AM PST or before they sell out! I expect these lovely treasures will draw quite the crowd!

Personally, I think being awake is a lot more effort than it's worth. That's why the second you walk out of the shop, I'm snuggled up in a pile of quilts and fabric scraps, settling in to take a nap. I've become a master at working the cash register in my sleep, so there's actually no guarantee you've ever seen me awake. In fact, I'm not entirely sure I'm not asleep right this instant! What's real and what's not? Are you listening to my rant on the latest Limited Quantity Items? Is that shelf made of lightly aged asiago cheese? Hard to say! Anyways, drop by La Victoire if you wanna get your hands on these awesome new arrivals. See you soon!

11 The seal is weakening on March's Advance Chance!
We all know that no amount of prying will open the Advance Chance before its time, but I've been experimenting with a new technique: staring at it. I figured with enough concentrated staring, maybe I could loosen the seals on this baby just enough to get a glimpse inside. Especially with that poweful new aura I've been cultivating.

Well, I have some exciting findings to report. During the third hour of today's staring contest with the March Advance Chance, I swear I saw the ribbon wiggle a little bit! I don't know if it was my latent psychic abilities, my bulging eye muscles, or just a coincidence, but one thing is for sure: this thing is set to pop!

What will the next Chance Item be? Nobody is quite sure, but you’ll get the first crack at it with March's Advance Chance! On the day of the next CI release, you’ll be able to open your bundle and start reaping the rewards of your CIs hours before they’re released to the general public, so you can start listing items on the Marketplace when hardly anyone has their hands on them yet.

Surely the weakening seal means the new CI is imminent-- if you want to get that sweet head start, you'd better grab an Advance Chance soon! I've heard tell that those of you who purchase an Advance Chance will be receiving an extra special upgraded edition of the CI with double the rewards inside!

11 Gaia Online Community Update
Greetings, Gaians! It's been an absolutely thrilling month, hasn't it? There were parties, events, epic scavenger hunts and contests, an insane amount of amazing items, and tons more! But now that March is underway, we think it's time we give the month of February its due and go over some of the amazing highlights from the past few weeks. Let's take a look back together, shall we?

February is the season of love and longing, so it's only fitting that we threw a love-themed bash featuring all of your favorite love-struck NPCs and a special event where Gaians band together to help Gaia-kun embrace his warm and cuddly side-- as pouty as it may be. VDay 2k15: Love Me, Love Me Not was spent sharing and spreading the love, and you guys really stepped up to make it our best Valentine's Day event ever! As President's Day rolled around, Lance received a strange letter and misplaced a mysterious parcel. He asked Gaian for help in the Package For You Scavenger Hunt and you came through, solving the mystery in a mere 1 day, 6 hours, and 41 minutes, by revealing that President Diedrich was our mysterious sender! Of course, we all know that the real love-themed treat came around on the day of our 12th Gaiaversary, when we launched the brand new Marriage System! Now you can get hitched to your favorite Gaian and proudly sport their name under your avatar forever-- or until you get a divorce and start over! Just as we were settling into a peaceful honeymoon, Monsieur Loyal presented Gaians with a challenge: The Gate of Olympus was sealed completely shut! After a successful donation drive where you sank 93 trillion gold, Loyal was able to swing open the Gates and reveal a fantastic new chance item full of happy bees-- and other things, of course! As we wrapped up that adventure, we checked our calender and realized that the Paws Anniversary was upon us! We unleashed a torrent of fabulous new [Animal] items into La Victoire and even distributed an event freebie item for all the amazing Paws users who celebrated one year of fangs and fluffiness. After turning in a Project Amethyst Ticket, LadyShi hosted the Braintologists Unite mini event, complete with a custom forum, free event item, and tons of community shenanigans! It was a great way to wrap up an amazing month of fun and fashion.

Speaking of fashion, last month was a remarkable time to be a Gaian fashionista. We saw the release of several gorgeous Limited Quantity Items in La Victoire, with new favorites like Royal Rose Wedding, Tama the Warrior, Dainty Dragonslayer, Novice Tooth Fairy, and Shade of a Beast joining Ursa Minor and Mimi Neko as some of our most stunning silhouettes to date! Of course, it's not surprising that this was a month of remarkable new finds. Kanoko was dragged into Rina's Dropplr madness yet again with Ships Going Down, February's amazing new chance item full of mixed up and merged together new twists on our favorite past releases like Mad Marionette, Tactician of the World, Battina's Lace, Jabberwock Bride, and Through the Hare Portrait! We also got to reach into the Box of Valentine's and Box of Anti-Valentine's, engage in some Eternal Bonding, ask our favorite folk to Be My Valentine, hit the local salon for some Idol Club Cuts, celebrate The Year of the Sheep, fight alongside the Chromatic Warriors, witness some magic in Poof to Paw II, and take a restful stroll alongside some Flowery Fauna.

It was an action packed month full of amazing new beginnings as we welcomed in bluealaris as our new Product Owner / General Manager, revealed a fantastic update to the Gaia Online Mobile App, and unveiled tons of new smaller-scale updates like making more items trashable, integrating a fun new partner game, and increasing the gold cap for Booty Grab!

That's all for this update, but the year has only just begun! We think February was an outstanding time to be a Gaian, but we simply can't wait to see what March holds for us all. There's been a lot of creaking and clanking coming from Barton lately.. Thank you so much, and we hope you have a magical March!

11 Now in La Victoire: Tons of fabulous new finds!
Hey Gaians! It's a fabulous day for fantastic new finds to arrive to La Victoire. I know because, well, they're already here!

Anyways, while I continue being irresistibly witty and the cutest cat you know, you can take a minute or two to peruse my latest wares!

11 Tendit ad Astra: Reaching for the Stars!
I had a great thought, Gaians: They say that beauty is in the of the beholder. Wouldn't it also be correct, then, to say that beauty is in the eye of the artist? I mean, those tricky folk always know just which colors to use and ways to drag that brush across a canvas to make your mind wander and your heart soar. The right art style can make you laugh, cry, or anything else along the range of wild reactions! Not to break the fourth or fifth wall here, but even I was dreamed up by some of Gaia's superbly talented artistic geniuses! This month's astounding new chance item celebrates the artistic process and the beauty and wonder it inspires all across the world of Gaia. Check out some of the brilliant and exciting things you'll have the pleasure of taking a peek at if you open one up!

-

If you're as fascinated by what a flick of the wrist and a dash of color can inspire, you'll be thrilled by the nifty animated process logs contained within Tendit ad Astra! As the stunning artworks take shape within the CI, you'll watch them go through all the stages of development from start to finish to a final, delicate polish. Each artist has their own unique style and a special flair to bring to the collection, and no two works are the same! The talented dreamers putting these lovely works of art to screen and paper are the same ones who help bring all of Gaia to life every single day!

The richly detailed items you discover between the pages of this sketchbook may amaze you. Pastels, warm and cool tones, sepia, lavender, rainbows-- setting the mood with splashes of color from these carefully chosen palettes, the cash shop favorites, valuable rare finds, and gorgeous new exclusives within Tendit ad Astra will inspire you to reach for the stars!

12 Now in La Victoire: New Limited Quantity Recolors and more!
Are cookies a breakfast food, Gaians? Who decides what is and what isn't a food that can be used to start the day off right? Is that a job someone has? Can I apply for it? These are the sorts of questions I ask myself while I stuff my face full of whatever I can find at the shop. Cygnus would normally be the one to whip up a quick mackerel omelette for me with shaved catnip on top, but he's always off glaring at the stars lately. Like there's anything interesting up there now that I'm down here? Psh. Anyways, while I try to craft something edible from rubber bands, slices of oily cheese, a carton of flour, and a handful of bottlecaps, you should take a second to check out all the fabulous new finds in La Victoire!

-

Truthful Fire and Blood...Hm, I'll let this fantastically epic item speak for itself: "'Valar morghulis.' Yes, all men must die. But we are not men." Ooh, that certainly sent a wicked shiver of anticipation down my spine! I hear that this brave warrior takes what's hers with fire and blood, and her fearless dragons strike true!

Holy Blooming Flower sprouted right up in the center of the shop. I wonder why! You see, I hadn't even planted a seed there or watered it. Peculiarities abound with this elegant damsel and her delicate design, but I can't help but admire her totally stylish sensibilities.

Tactical Escapist: This rough and tumblr brawler has been on a lot of strange quests in their day, but they somehow always manage to make it out of the fray unscathed. That's especially great news because it would be an absolute pity for fantastically practical and sleek couture like that to get torn in battle or covered in blood! Actually... it might look even cooler coming in blood...

Hurry to La Victoire to take a peek at these fabulous new releases before they sell out completely or leave the cash shop on March 16th at 9:59 AM PDT!

mmhphph...pmhopg...*gulp* so I guess I'll be seeing you soon, right Gaians? Oh.. sorry-- did you not catch that? Cygnus is always telling me not to eat with my mouth full, but I think it looks super adorable when my furry cheeks are all puffed out like a chipmunk. You can't tell me that wasn't the cutest thing you'll see all day and mean it. Anyways, what I meant to say was: I noticed your eyes glittering and gleaming at the thought of getting your hands on these awesome new items so I guess I'll be seeing you soon, right Gaians?

12 The newly revamped Tailored Stylist is here!
Hello again, my little fashion savants! Feeling inspired? There's so much beauty around Gaia lately. All these fresh new floral patterns are sprouting up for Spring, and all of last season's tired shades are disappearing back into their oversized storage boxes for a good long rest. If you're as big a fan of couture as I am (and that'd be pretty hard, considering I'm probably the biggest fan there is) then you know exactly how important fashion is! Sandals with socks? Bottoms that aren't capris, but also aren't quite pants? Business formal with athletic shoes? If one or more of these just made you a little nauseous at the thought, we're totally on the same page. So from one fashuonista to another, it's time to refresh your look. Lucky for you, all of the fabulous finds in the newly revamped Tailored Stylist should be just what you need to spice up your spring style! Check it out:

12 Panty Raid!! Risque new rewards are ripe for the plunder!
Wahoo Gaians! Are you up for some shenanigans? I don't want to be terribly creepy or anything, but I found this dusty antique dresser down in the basement of La Victoire... Admittedly, it was buried under a lot of the junk Cygnus and I keep down there-- old cat trees, boxes of new item catalogues, Cygnus' scary-looking collectible dolls, you know, just stuff. Anyways, we pried open the top drawer of this fancy chiffonier and lo and behold: PANTIES! We should have known! But who could they have belonged to? Flynn? Mintaka?... I suppose they could belong to Rigel... Ah, let's not think about this further. The real headline here is all the fancy loot!

-

Go on a Panty Raid with us to reveal a huge collection of fully-stuffed bundles of lacy lovelies! So far we've fished out the Black Panty Bundle, Red Panty Bundle, Pink Panty Bundle, Blue Panty Bundle, Green Panty Bundle, and the White Panty Bundle! I have so many questions, but no one to ask them to. Like, why was that dresser way down here in the dark, spooky basement? What do the other drawers contain? How did the amazing new exclusive items Evelyn's Secret and Le Secret De Raynesa end up in here?! To get your hands on some of the fabulous finds, hurry on over to La Victoire on the double!

12 Loyal's Bazaar Update: New Limited Quantity Items!
Salutations, dearest Gaians. Why, it's certainly an auspicious day for the likes of us shopkeepers. Jet & Cygnus have run rampant with their usual flamboyant displays of admittedly stunning new wares, and I hear that even Admin's pet feature has been expecting a new arrival. Rather than steal the stage, I've decided to quietly and impressively slip in this wonderful update. A good performer knows when to be humble.

12 Triple Coupon Time! New coupons inside!
Hello Gaians! A beautiful shooting star left a vivid streak across the sky earlier. Did you happen to see it? Ah, that's quite alright! I may look very businesslike in my practical working attire and these prim heels, but I'm no uptight office worker afraid of getting her hands dirty!

13 Limited Quantity Item: Serious Synchronous Sunlight
Hey Gaians! Oh boy, have I got a treat for you! So, it took a little bribery and a whole lot of persuading, but I convinced a rather elusive guest to join us for the evening.

13 Now in La Victoire: Tree Sylph, a new bundle, and more!
Good morning Gaians! I'd say it's a beautiful day out, but now I'm starting to really second guess the quality of this odd morning. It's strange! I decided to take one of my rare strolls through the garden. It seemed fairly average. Flowers, bushes, dirt... you know, the works. But there was this huge tree I hadn't seen before! Huge! And trees don't just grow overnight, you know...right? Anyways, I walked up to this big honkin' plant and tapped the side of it to make sure the thing was real. I've heard knocking on wood is usually good luck, but today must have been the exception because out of nowhere, a whole stash of acorns and pinecones came tumbling down onto me. Now I've got a wicked bump on my adorable furry noggin and no idea what to do about this eyesore of a sprout taking over the landscape. Anyways, I'm glad you're here with me. We can crawl up there together and get to the bottom-- er, top-- of this mystery tree!

-

I should've known! It was the Tree Sylph all along! That little punk is always tossing things from treetops and swooping through the leafy heights. I'd almost appreciate that admittedly stylish Sylph's taste in nature and high places if it weren't that terrible attitude! Yeesh!

Well, at least I know who the culprit is! Luckily, we had a quick chat and worked out our differences-- and by that I mean that the Tree Sylph used a springy branch as a slingshot and launched me right out of the tree, while refusing to leave La Victoire until March 17th at 9:59 AM PDT or until Tree Sylph sells out completely. At least one of the things tossed down with me was a brand new Limited Quantity Bundle! Score!

13 Community Update: Arena Winners and an Exclusive Interview!
Thanks for tuning in, Gaians! It was an action packed week here on Gaia, and with all the hustle and bustle, it seems as though time slipped away from us here at the studio. Not to mention the terrible accident that left our beloved Gaia 9 Action News van a heap of scrap metal at the bottom of a small cliff. Luckily, resident mechanical genius Sam, who runs the local business Sam's Body & Parts, was able to whip it back into shape-- once she was able to find her various tools in that mess of a workshop, that is! To make up for the lack of time and traveling ability us poor souls at Gaia 9 Action News HQ faces, here are last week's and this week's Avatar Arena Winners!

- Taking first place in the Cosplay Avatar Arena was Roxoah, with the inspired entry entitled "You met a terrible fate.." It was a stunning success and truly captivated voters left and right! Not to be outdone, user Viice swept the competition to take first place in the Original Avatar Arena with the entry "The Bone Collector!" This richly detailed avatar is dark, daring, and completely deserving of a major win!

-

This week's Avatar Arena Winners are absolutely gorgeous! With a touching tribute to a memorable performance, evil-wears-a-bow won the honor of first place in the Cosplay Avatar Arena with the entry "Farewell Mister Spock." With a delicate grace, Flz stole first place in the Original Avatar Arena like a bandit in the night for the beautiful and haunting entry entitled "As the Fog rolled in"

Congratulations to all of our astounding winners! If you happen to spot these talented folk around the forums, be sure to give them a quick commendation for their thrilling victory. To take a look at the winners of yesterday or yesteryear alike, check out the Cosplay Avatar Arena Winners Page and the Original Avatar Arena Winners Page!

To keep that pesky Liam away, I made sure to schedule an interview with an esteemed guest of our own choosing! Sadly, the person we chose wasn't able to make it due to some scheduling errors and a few world-threatening battles at hand. Luckily, our old pals Ian and Rufus have nothing too pressing going on today and their schedule is wide open. They offered to lend us a hand with today's segment. You may know this dapper and charming pair as the shopkeepers of Barton Boutique, one of the oldest and most well known establishments in all of Gaia!

Welcome, Ian and Rufus! Great to have you here.
 * Ian: Hey, thanks Cindy! It's been a while since we've hung out, right? I guess you're kind of famous now. Same goes for Rina-- I hardly see her now that she's in that semi-famous rock band.
 * Rufus: Ian and I mostly hang around the shop eating cheesy snack mixes and living the bachelor life. Did you know they make crackers shaped like fish? They don't really taste as good as the real thing, though.
 * Ian: C'mon buddy, we're doing more than that with our time. People are going to think we're lazy! Ah-- er, we do a lot at Barton Boutique! I mean, we restocked the store with some new stuff a while ago...

Yes! I do remember that. Gaians, you might recall that late last month, the humble Ian was flooded with secret admirer presents that filled his shop to the brim! Any comments on that?
 * Ian: Yeah, we got so many that we actually had to give some away, and put a lot of them up for sale. It's crazy what some people will do around Valentine's season... but I really appreciate the gifts, everyone! They were great!
 * Rufus: Except the ones that had creepy love notes and old locks of Ian's blond hair taped into them.
 * Ian: Ah...haha.. Right. For next year, please don't do that.. In fact, can we change the subject?
 * Rufus: When was the last time your hair looked like that? 2006? 2007?
 * Ian: So Cindy, what I really wanted to share in this interview was that, well, I think there's something sneaky going on with Liam!

Headline of the Century: Liam being Liam. Let's move on!
 * Ian: No-- really! Has anything gone missing from the Gaia 9 Action News Headquarters?
 * Rufus: Stuff like a can opener, or all of the doorknobs in the place?

As a matter of fact, we are missing a lot of our technical equipment. We had attributed the loss to the Great Carl Rampage of 2015 but perhaps there's a bigger story here!
 * Ian: Wow! Rufus and I are kind of like junior investigative journalists or something. Hey buddy, maybe we should solve this case.
 * Rufus: As long as we get the can opener back safe and sound. I haven't been able to open up my tuna cans since it vanished!
 * Ian: Oh no. I know how you get without tuna. Let's hurry and start searching for clues! Cindy, we'll report anything we learn to you, alright? Unless the culprit is a deranged criminal and we don't make it back alive...
 * Rufus: I thought we were pretty sure it was Liam.
 * Ian: Yeah, we're pretty sure it's Liam. Either way, this is the most excited I've been in weeks!

Wow! Well, thank you for being here, Ian and Rufus! I was expecting this to be a casual chat, but it looks like it's become an exciting new mystery to solve. I'm not sure what kind of story this lead might reveal, but we here at Gaia 9 Action News will support the investigation to the very end.
 * Ian: Thanks Cindy! And thanks to all of the Gaians out there who stop in and say hello to Rufus and I at Barton Boutique. You guys are the best!
 * Rufus: You guys give us the chin scratches and the nicest smiles! Well, I mostly get all the chin scratches, but you get the point. Come see us again really soon!

Wow! An enlightening and friendly look at what some of Gaia's foremost shopkeepers have going on. Whether you think there's a mystery out there or not, I hope you enjoyed the time we spent with Ian and Rufus. If you want to visit them, head on over to Barton Boutique to take a look at the fabulous wares they've got in stock.

13 Evolving Item Report: The Finale of My Bloody Valentine!
Good new, Sciencers! We decided to change our policies on theoretical experimentation here at the EI Labs. All that new stuff we implemented under the assumption that performing actual experiments was frivolous and unnecessary turned out to be a total mistake. It also really freaked out a lot of the more imaginative scientists, who spent a lot of time theoretically ending the entire universe with a single theoretical mistake. To restore company spirit and to get things back on track, we put on our lab coats once more and headed back into the lab to do some good old fashioned sciencing! Luckily, the interns kept the place warm for us. Check out our homecoming project: It's the finale to the riveting tale of My Bloody Valentine!

My Bloody Valentine


 * “A new cut and a blood daiquiri
 * Then I’ll be right as rain, fancy free~
 * So I’ll put on some lipstick
 * And I’ll upload a cute pic
 * Of my most favorite valentine: me!”

Ah! Applause please, for the stunning Draculette as she takes a bow. Bravo, bravo! If you'd like to pick up the next generation of this astounding Evolving Item, simply pick up a sample from our friends at La Victoire. I'd offer you a tour of the EI Labs to fetch your own, but it's become a tad dangerous in here as our more cautious technicians have begun stockpiling supplies and first aid kits to prepare for any potential world-threatening distastes they've theorized have a possibility taking place someday. Carry on, my delightful Scienteers!

Rules & FAQ!

13 Limited Quantity Item: Dusky Synchronous Moonlight!
Hey Gaians! Can you imagine my surprise when I started to prepare my lunch and cracked open the fridge to find a strange new guests hiding between the milk and the leftover lasagna?! I mean, this newcomer doesn't seem to be a fan of the sunlight, but I like to think of La Victoire as being a sophisticated level of dimness. I managed to coax this adorable arrival out into the shop by promising to keep the curtains drawn, the doors closed, and all the lights at minimum brightness, so if you approach the shop and find it a tad uninviting, just blame this overly cautious cutie:

-

Dusky Synchronous Moonlight glows with a peculiar sort of darkness. The ferocity of this astounding new treasure waxes and wanes with the phases of the moon to create a devastatingly lovely ensemble! Should you find yourself lost in the dark, you can count on this loyal companion to guide you through the dangers ahead while looking absolutely fabulous to boot!

Hurry over to La Victoire to synchronize with this dashing charmer before they flee the shop on March 17th at 9:59 AM PDT or as soon as they sell out completely! See you soon!
