NOTE: This year things are going to be run a little differently than they have been in previous holiday events. Please be sure to read ALL the rules before participating! This is a result of many months of consideration and discussion over these issues in the past. In order to avoid as much drama and to make this as enjoyable of an event as possible for everyone involved, we have set these rules in place.

General Rules
  • If you can't be bothered to read the rules or abide by them, then do NOT participate.
  • Follow ALL Gaia Online TOS, naturally.
  • No whining, begging, or guilt tripping.
  • Questions that are answered on this front page will NOT be answered by the staff.
  • Do NOT PM the staff questions directly to their in-boxes, if you have any unanswered questions please PM the "-Cein-Isles-" mule.


Prizes and Participation Rules
  • Due to the increase of one-time-only posters who only showed up during the 100-page draws, we are requiring that people who wish to win this year's 100-page prizes (prizes given away for free whenever the pages hit in the hundreds) to be already actively posting. Roleplay, however, is not required for these give-away taur.
  • Prizes such as chibis are not roleplay-able, they are merely considered gift art even if they are sometimes given names. Please do not roleplay them in the main and event thread.
  • Sometimes the staff will give out special prizes to whom ever they deem worthy of them. Please do not beg for such prizes.

Q: "What is a pygmy?"
A: A pygmy is a taur whose growth is stunted. That doesn't necessarily mean they are in a permanent child mentality. They can be as smart (or as a daft) as you want them to be.

Q: "May I roleplay my pygmy?"
A: Yes, pygmies are 100% roleplayable.

Q: "Can pygmies breed?"
A: No. Just... no.

Q: "What's the difference between a Chiron City pygmy and a Cein Isles Pygmy?"
A: Chiron City pygmies have higher technology at their disposal (modern times technology) whereas Cein Isles ones do not just as their full taur counterparts do.

Auction Dates: December 5th - December 20th, 8pm Central OVER!!
Auction Description: A storm rages over the dilapidated basket. Yet the waves seem to bow before it as they pass, and the water beneath it calms as not to threaten the basket with tipping. Far beneath the citizens of the sea watch it's progress with wide eyed curiosity. Surely someone had placed an enchantment upon it. Whispers cut though the silence. Who did it, and why did they use such a powerful spell on such a battered vessel? None dare approach.

Kithria watches the basket as the waves push it upon the shore. She nods, knowing it is beyond her reach. Reaching out she sings. The song is old, a requiem known only to the unitaur. It starts slow and mournful but the pace soon quickens as the song becomes hopeful, even joyful. As she watches a figure approaches the basket drawn by the tune. She smiles, the infant inside will not die today...

* * *

The Oceanic uni is based loosely on the story of The Knights of the Fish. As I imagine him he will be naturally drawn to water as he grows, preferring to learn and master water based magic over all else. If the auction goes over 2m the owner will be given two versions of him. One regular and one in full armour. If the auction is Autobid then he will be given a semi-custom twin, male or female, both with regular and full armour variations. The armour will (naturally) be fish based.

OVER!! Congrats, MAKOKUN!!

Starting Bid: 2k ; increments of 100g.
Autobuy: User Image (It's been said before... T.t I can dream...)
Accepted Bids: Gold & Donation/Monthly Items only, please. Letters are valued the same as the highest priced item they contain.


Auction Rules
  • For this particular auction, please no co-owning.

  • Winner has 24 hours to send the winning bid to the mule.

A Little bit about Seahorses: As I'm sure many of you know seahorses are famous for one thing in particular... it's the males who become pregnant! For the seahorses of Cein Isles this means that it's traditionally the males who stay home and watch the young and the females who hunt, gather, and engage in battle. However, this does not mean that the males are of elevated status as with the harpies. Male seahorses are no different in treatment or ability then any of the regular females of the isles.
Seahorses are also the only community on the isles that practice group marriage. Strange? Maybe... I think this race is gonna be interesting...
