Noyama - Quest Giver, run-to person, ACTUAL decision maker
Chibi Sheepcat - Inker, Colorist, Crab owner, Part-time decision maker
Wotcher - Part time helper when we need it, laughing stock

Mules:
Amakusa_Ryu - Used Exclusively by Aylee
Amakusa_Shu - Used by Aylee, Noya, and Chibi, but mostly Chibi

Users Banned from this shop
Mikini-san (user #3418543), aka ~snow_white_blood_red~ (user #4661880), aka deceitful_hearts (user #6579776). Reason: Arguing with the shop staff over a verdict, and generally being disrespectful to the staff

[10.26.08]Closing up shop

All right, I really, really hate to do this, especially as I promised myself once that I would never do it, but... Well, the time has come to close this shop.

Again, I really DO hate to do this, but I lack any enthusiasm at all for this shop anymore, as much as I hate to say it. Part of that is, I'm sure, because of Gaia, which I loathe with every fiber of my being, but once I lost faith in my ideas of the metaplot, and in how interesting it could (or could not) be, I just... stopped caring. The metaplot and my sense of responsibility were honestly all that kept me going here, in the end.

And unfortunately when I lost one, the other... wasn't enough to keep me afloat. Just because I feel bad that I'm not doing anything doesn't give me the enthusiasm needed to do anything. And without that enthusiasm it's all just downhill.

So instead of giving you guys false hope that it's going to come back, I'm going to just close this place altogether.

As far as the characters go, you may continue to RP them and get other artists to draw their later stages, if you so wish. Anything goes, now. I release all copyright to them to their respective owners, except (obviously) that of the original art I did. The fact that I drew the art is still, y'know, IMPORTANT.

But anyway, feel free to do whatever you wish with your characters from this point on. They're yours. The only thing I ask is that you stick to what they originally were, and that if they have children it not be, uh, y'know. Natural. Cause srsly, they can't.

One other thing: If you wish for a refund on your Sin, just drop me a PM. All Sin will be refunded at their original sale price minus a percentage of the price for every stage already drawn. Sin still babies get refunded their full price, and every stage drawn after that you will lose 1/6th of the original price.

Please note that 'original price' for children who were given away for free for whatever reason is flatsale price (10k), and any children purchased through auctions and paid for with items will be refunded with the 'then' price for the items, not the current price and/or the item.

Again, I really hate doing this, but I really, really have no enthusiasm for this shop anymore. Any art I've been drawing lately have been of one of my own characters and his family/friends. And even that has been sparse. As I still lack a scanner I really don't have much interest in drawing, either.

Anyway, if you have any questions, please just PM me.

Yours, Aylee

There was once a great and powerful nation, although it didn't exist in our dimension. We will call it the Old Kingdom, for lack of knowledge of it's full name.

This kingdom, like many, had a Prince. His name was Ariadn, and he held the occupation of breeder, one of the more coveted jobs, for a breeder was the one who would splice the souls of willing individuals to create a new, third soul. It was a complicated process, and the prince was still in his training.

However, Ariadn also had no sense of responsibility. Whenever he could, he spent his days goofing off, sneaking outside of the palace, and spending his time dressed as a street urchin. Due to this, he developed not only skills at hiding and keeping away from other thieves, but also an acute case of kleptomania that would probably plague him till the end of his days.

But alas, his peaceful if rather useless life was soon to be interrupted. Ariadn had barely turned seventeen when disaster struck the country. Soon many of his people were dying or dead from a mysterious disease, and Ariadn and his family had no idea of the cause, or a cure. In order to save the country, the kingdom's High Council decided on a course of action: to send Ariadn to another dimension armed with the souls of those still alive.

Within short order the ritual was conducted, and the living were stripped of their souls (an act that would be punishable by death, were these normal circumstances). Ariadn, too, was reduced to soul form, despite his rather loud protests. Using methods that were far, far from Ariadn's skill level, the High Council's breeder bound the souls to Ariadn's own in such a way so that he could access them, but that they would not affect his own life or soul.

Then they opened a portal, and the Breeder stepped through.

Beyond the portal he found a young woman, about to begin baking a cake. She was, of course, surprised to see a portal open into her kitchen, but she took it in stride. The breeder (whose name was revealed to be Cathorias Maren) did his best to keep the conversation short, and in the process bound Ariadn's soul to a stick of chocolate that was sitting open on the counter. And thus, Ariadn was reborn as a baby.

However, due to the breeder having to use an abbreviated method for the binding, there were some side affects. Not only did he have an unusual, rapid growth rate, but he also had the impurities that all breeders were taught to remove. In his case, these took the form of some strange ears and a pair of wings. And a rather bothersome craving for chocolate.

Along with the child, Cathorias gave the woman a bag full of crystals and a few books to help the now very young prince along his way. And then... he was gone, back through the portal which closed rapidly behind him.

As she looked at her new child, the woman decided to name her new child 'Chaco', not knowing that the boy already had a name. Within two weeks he had grown to a child's age, and decided that, with this new life a new name just might be the most appropriate thing. And so, he began his task: to bind the souls of his citizens, creating new lives for them in this new world. Of course, they wouldn't remember their lives as he did (he didn't have the skill to do that), but they were still going to live again. That was important.

Unfortunately, Chaco had never finished his training in the Old Kingdom, and as such he was unable to keep the impurities he himself had from appearing in the new children, each unique to that child. In her infinite wisdom and lack of tact, Aylee (his new mother) christened these impurities 'Odd Features'.

But lets not forget, some items were sent along with Chaco. The books were quickly misplaced, but within the bag of crystals that had been given to Aylee was one large special crystal, which contained the sentient soul of Chaco's work partner, Illesi. His purpose was to assign jobs to the Sin'aeis as they become old enough. Unfortunately for Chaco, the two never got along, and Illesi insisted upon spending his time taunting Chaco as much as possible.

Chaco still has many more children to bring into this world. Time will only tell how each of these children grow up! Just... stay tuned and watch...

Food/Element
In order to be reborn, every Sin’aeis has his or her soul bound to a food item, also called his/her element. Although their element has no effect on their job, it does greatly affect their physical features and in some cases their personality. In addition, most Sin’aeis also either love to eat or hate to eat food in their element’s food group.

Jobs
Each Sin’aeis is born with a Job, something they are capable of becoming a true master at. Their job is an important part of who they are, dictating their abilities, affinities and aversions. More than one Sin’aeis may hold the same job, but don’t expect it to be a common occurrence.

It is thought that each Sin’aeis is initially born with three jobs, however as they age two of these jobs will work their way out of their system, leaving them with their one true job. In order to unlock this job and increase the strength of some of their abilities, a Sin’aeis (Teen or older) must approach Illesi and provide him with a compelling argument as to what their job is (proof is to be offered in the form of abilities and affinities/aversions). If it’s compelling enough (and right), Illesi will unlock the job.

As a note: All jobs for First Gen Sin’aeis are medieval in nature.

Quests
At various times during a Sin’aeis’ life, he or she will be deemed worthy of gaining an ability or of growing, or and affinity/aversion. But it’s not quite that simple! In order to gain awesomeness, the child will need to go on a quest. Quests will be posted in the thread, and mentioned in the thread title. And yes, there are many types:

Abilities Quests
These are quests that will give a Sin'aeis some ability related to their job. They can be anything, from creating balls of light, to an ability to write prolifically, to the ability to know where to find any plant one has seen before. They come in many shapes and sizes, and some abilities might even be upgraded when they unlock their job.

Affinity and Aversion Quests
An affinity or aversion is basically a like or dislike that is associated with the Sin'aeis's job. However, they have a side effect of possibly changing the Sin's personality, and are thus optional.

Aging Quest
These quests are given when a Sin'aeis has been active enough. The different stages are Baby < Toddler < Kid < Teen < Youth < Adult < Master. It is up to the staff to determine when a child will grow, so please don’t pester us about it. Also, just being active around the thread is not enough; you must actively RP your child in order for them to grow.

Up until a Sin’aeis becomes a Kid, we will be providing growth quests. Once it is time for them to grow to Teen, the protector will have to start coming up with quests. For Teen stage the protector will be sent a PM for them to fill out with information about their Teen image, and for details about their quest. Again, we will decide when to send these PMs out.

Breeding
While a Sin’aeis is indeed born with genetalia, said organs provide no purpose other than for pleasure or to differentiate between male and female (and hermaphrodite and asexual). Because of this, breeding is purely magical in nature, a new soul created from two (or more) souls. However, it has the side effect of physically exhausting the parents for anywhere from a couple weeks to a few months. This is why it is strongly advised that the parents give the child to a new protector.

When two Sin’aeis want to have a child, they must seek out Chaco, who will perform the soul-splicing ritual. There after one small, clear egg (or more) will be created. Inside one will be able to see the parent’s elements, side by side. Over the course of the next few days, the egg will change to show a dominance of one of the elements.

For example, were a Chocolate Sin and a Banana Sin to mate, and offspring with the element Chocolate-covered Banana would have a Banana dominance. However, banana-flavored Chocolate would have a chocolate dominance (Note: These are completely fictional, and equally lame examples).

The Estate
The Shiroko Estate is an open house, for all Sin’aeis to come and go. Most Sin’aeis are dropped off to their new protectors with a note telling of the Estate’s address (12 Elton Avenue), but sometimes mistakes are made. Hopefully all Sin’aeis will be able to find their way to the mansion eventually.

For your reference, here are maps:

Grounds
First Floor
Second Floor
Third Floor

Not mentioned are Aylee’s Basement Laboratory and the Attic (home to many a miscellaneous item). Also, I am always open to new suggestions for rooms, so feel free to mention them in the thread!

---------------------------------------------------------------

Growth Stages
Baby (est. age: 0-1)
The first stage, a little puffy sack of baby flesh. This stage is more for the protectors to learn about their new child and form bonds with them. Of course, interaction with other Sin’aeis isn’t bad, either! Most babies can’t speak more than baby burble, but they are very expressive with their hands.

Toddler (est. age: 2-6)
By the second stage children’s personalities have begun to emerge in full force. Toddlers and walk and talk, though their speech is far from perfect.

Kid (est age: 7-12)
At this point a Sin'aeis has nearly perfect speech, and will find it easier to go out into the world. Their personality will be well defined by this point, and their individuality will be clear. They’ve also begun having clear hobbies and interests, and their job is becoming more clear.

Teen (est. age: 13-17)
Ahh, Teenagers. That wholly loathsome age that no one ever wants to repeat. Each Sin’aeis seems to react to this in their own ways, but one thing is clear: Sin’aeis DO get affected by raging hormones! A Sin’aeis’ likes and dislikes are usually pretty much set by this point, although as everyone knows, teenagers are prone to mood swings and bouts of emo. Also a Sin’aeis’ job will typically become known during this stage.

Youth (est. age: 18-24)
Your Sin has reached youth! Their job is almost definitely known by this point, and they have probably passed that rebellious stage. Probably. If they have not accepted their job by this point, however, Chaco may find it necessary to pressure them into accepting, if it's something he deems important.

Adult (est. age: 25-35)
Your Sin’aeis has become an adult! Whoopee! Well, not really. By this point, a Sin’aeis is fully mature, both in mind and in body. Well, unless they’re just naturally immature. If they’ve accepted their job they are probably in full force at this point, learning all there is to learn about the trade, and putting it into practice! If they didn’t, well, they’ve probably found something else to do, but they will never be able to master it as they would their bound job.

By this stage many a Sin will probably have put thought into settling down and getting married, or having children of their own.

Master (est. age: timeless)
Ah, the final stage. This one is only available to Sin’aeis who have accepted their job and have learned every single thing there is to know about it. They are perfect at it, never making mistakes. Everything about their job that they touch turns to gold, so to speak. Perhaps they may be taking on an apprentice or two, but regardless they ARE indeed making themselves known in the Sin’aeis world, and the Gaian one.

RULES

0. Do NOT steal the art! Why? Because it's OURS. I drew it, Chibi colored and inked it, and the child belongs to someone else. Fanart of the children is fine, but do NOT copy or trace or blatantly steal official shop art. You WILL get blacklisted if we find out that you have done so, AND we will report you to a Mod.

1. No whining if you don't win a Flatsale/Auction/Event/Whatever. Why? Because it's impolite and we don't like to listen to it! When an event is over what you SHOULD be doing is congratulating the winners. We will greylist you if we think you are emoing.

2. Respect the wishes of others! I've had to warn people about this before. If someone asks you NOT to do something (and it's a reasonable request, and WE will determine if it's reasonable, not you), then stop doing it. If we find out that they've had to ask you repeatedly to stop doing something, and you're STILL doing it, we WILL greylist you.

3. No EMOing. If you've had a bad day, okay. We understand, and feel free to vent a little. I do. But do NOT constantly emo about how your life sucks /wrist /wrist. We don't want to hear it, sorry!

4. The staff gets around to things when they get around to things. Sometimes real life gets in the way, and we can't finish things when we thought we would. Don't b***h about how long we're taking. Thank you!

5. RP! RP! RP! Lack of RP = A Sin who doesn't grow. If you haven't RPed, do not come to us demanding they grow. Growth is dependent on RP, nothing else. Sorry, but that's the way the boat floats.

5.5. Also, if you do not RP AT ALL, we will take your child away. Sorry, but thems the rules!

6. RPs and PDs must be either copied into or linked to in your Sin's journal. If the PDs/RPs aren't in the journal, they won't be counted as activity. We're not going to do your work for you.

7. Do not ask for Children in the Frozen Foods section. You will not get them. They are to be given out at our discretion.

8. Use Brackets for OOC stuff when RP is going on in the thread! Otherwise things get too confusing, and no one likes confusing. Just, be courteous to the RPers.

9. Staff word is above yours! If we hand down a ruling, do NOT contest it. We make rules and hand down rulings for a REASON. This is OUR shop, not yours. Have a problem with it? GET OUT.

10. No fighting! Or, real fighting anyway. Play fighting is okay. But if you want to say something to someone that might start an argument, TAKE IT TO PM. We do NOT want to hear it in the thread, and it affects EVERYONE'S moods, not just yours.

11. Only use n00bspeak if you're trying to be funny. You will get greylisted if you use it full time. If, after your greylisting is done, and you come into the thread speaking it again, you will get BLACKlisted.

12. Read the entire front page before asking a question. Often it will have been answered somewhere here, and you won't actually need to have asked it. I mean, it's common sense, really. The stuff was written up and placed here for a reason!

13. YOU ARE NOT YOUR CHARACTERS. Nor is any other RPer. OOC =/= IC. If someone's character hates your character it does NOT mean they hate you. Their character will make stupid accusations, form stupid opinions, and other things not based on reality or the reality of your character. IT IS ROLE PLAY. THE OPINIONS OF CHARACTERS ARE MAKE BELIEVE.

F.A.Q.s

Q. Can I get a Cosplay Sin?
A. No, sorry! We don't do Cosplays. Jack is the only exception, as he was concepted before the shop even opened, and was a gift to an IRL friend. He's only loosely based on the original character anyway.

Q. Where does Chaco get some of the Elements?
A. The Shiroko Mansion's kitchen. No, really. People just tend to LEAVE things in there, and he doesn't ask what they are, just uses them. Or, in some cases, makes mistakes. Like Ravi. He was a mistake. Mistakes are fun!

Q. What counts as food?
A. Uhm. That's a tricky question. I can't give a general answer, so ask me specifically. Besides, some things that are normal food I will veto because, well, I will. I have reasons behind everything I do! Do not question them! *evil eye*

Q. How much RP is enough RP?
A. That's questionable. It's more continuous RP that we're looking for, not just RP. Like, if you RP five times over the course of a year, that's nowhere near the activity we're looking for, and your child will not grow.

Q. Sin have sex organs, right? So do they have sperm and eggs and the like?
A. Yes, although they are infertile.

Q. If I hang out in the thread will you grow my Sin?
A. Not unless you're actively RPing as well.

Q. If I hang out in the thread, will you give me a free Sin?
A. No, sorry! We don't give them away for free unless we like you, you've been in the thread for a LONG time, and you've shown exemplary RP ability.

Q. I don't have a Sin. Can I still RP?
A. Of course! In fact, we encourage it. We get to know you better through RP!

Q. I want to have a Sin with *element* but another Sin already has it. Can I still get it?
A. No, sorry. The only situations where you can have two Sin with the same element are twins, (aka Chaco made another mistake), and very VERY very rare. They are only given out through events.

Q. Do female Sin'aeis get their periods?
A. No. That's just a human defect. Sin'aeis aren't human, after all!

Q. Can Sin'aeis remember their past lives? Like, does Chaco remember his past? If so, is he a special case?
A. Chaco's a special case. Most Sin'aeis will never be able to remember, though if something really traumatic were to happen to them, they MIGHT be able to remember little bits and pieces of it, but never the whole thing.

RP info

Sin'aeis are RP required pets, which means, if you don't RP them, they will not grow, and they will be taken away. Don't just stop by the thread every so often and post and expect your kid to grow. Roleplay can be broken into two categories, 'Journal Entries' and the actual 'Roleplay'.

'Journal Entries' are simply that, things written into the child's journal that are either in a first person (Such as a protector or the child writing in diary form) or third person (Such as retelling a story). Any Roleplay that happens either needs to be transcribed in the journal or linked to, or it will not count for their growth.

'Roleplay' is self explanatory as well. If you need to know how to RP (And what to avoid), check out this page. http://www.darknexxus.com/index.asp?page=freeform It even has pictures.

Because these are RP required pets, if you do not RP them, they will be taken away, without refund.** Of course, we all have real lives and understand that you can't RP every single day (Though more power to you if you can). Below lists how long of a time period that you have to RP within, or your child will be taken:

Baby: Two months
Toddler: Three to four months
Kid: Four to Five months

After the Kid stage, there's a pretty good chance that you're going to be staying around for the long haul, so we'll be a lot more lenient with the requirements here. Just remember, they won't grow.

ON HIATUSES: Okay. If real life decides to come eat your face, we understand that. However, if it does, you need to PM the shop mule AND post in your journal that you're taking a hiatus. This needs to be done. If you've lost your home internet, call a friend and ask them to get in contact with us, or find a public place. However, if you went on 'Hiatus' but went around and posted on the rest of Gaia while you were away, we'll ignore your request of hiatus. If you've got time to be posting on the exchange you've got time to be posting here.

By taking on the RP of a Sin'aeis, you're basically signing a contract that says you've read all of this information and understand that if you can't keep up your end of the bargain we'll take your Sin'aeis away with no refund.

**Sin who are except from the rehoming without refund rule are as follows: Minh Lan, Maverick, Pouple, Orenda, Jade, Fiore, Kelreid, and Ku'uipo.

Non-Playable Characters

There are various people you should be aware of in the Shiroko household, controlled by OOC Aylee, but who still have an impact. They are as follows.

User Image - Blocked by "Display Image" Settings. Click to show.

Chaco Shiroko
Chaco is perhaps the most important member of the Shiroko household, at least as far as the Sin'aeis are concerned. He's the eldest of the Sin'aeis, and is the one who created all of the Sin, using souls given to him by the high council before he was placed in Aylee's care. He's the only whole Sin'aeis who remembers anything about the Old Kingdom, let alone why they were brought to a new dimension. He's responsible for creating and caring for the Sin'aeis, and is capable of knowing when Sin'aeis have been severely hurt, or killed.
Chaco's journal can be found here.

Illesi Garrion
Illesi is the second half of the Breeder/Binder pair, being Chaco's 'other half' so to speak. However, he was sent to the new world not as a whole, but as a soul trapped within a set of crystals. He knows the job of every Sin'aeis Chaco creates, and is in charge of making sure they grow, gain abilities, and eventually unlock their job. All Sin'aeis will meet Illesi some day. He also knows what has happened in the old kingdom, but he's under strict instructions not to tell anyone.

User Image - Blocked by "Display Image" Settings. Click to show.

Aileen 'Aylee', 'Channa' Shiroko
Aylee is one of the two owners of the Shiroko mansion, is Chaco's 'mother', and is incredibly scatterbrained. She loves tinkering with machines, and has a basement laboratory under the house. However, be wary of touching (or even going near) anything that she's tinkered with recently, because chances are good it will explode.

Aylee 'Alex', 'Kunny' Shiroko
Kunny is the second owner of the Shiroko mansion, and the one who actually, y'know, pays the bills. And signed the deed and all of that. But he lets his twin sister think she half-owns it, because really, there's no sense in telling her she doesn't. He DID have the house built by her floor-plans and for her insanely large family, after all. As an FYI, Kunny is an assassin, and is therefor nor around as often as one would wish. But hey, he DOES pay the bills!

Konstantin
We're not even going into Kon's full name. It's too long. In any case, this guy is a human/vampire half-mix, with red eyes and white hair. He's noteworthy because he's usually playing music on the first floor of the mansion, and since his room isn't sound-proofed, this can be heard if you get close enough.

Playable Characters

There are even some PCs lurking around the Mansion, and more will be added to the list as they become available. These are characters that anyone can RP, within reason.

User Image - Blocked by "Display Image" Settings. Click to show.

Sasakura Ryuu
Age: Looks Mid-20's
Hair Color: Black
Eye Color: Brown
Height: Approx. 5'8"?
Sasakura-san is an android Aylee brought back with her from another dimension and programmed with the personality and looks of Sasakura Ryuu from the anime Bartender. He acts as the butler of the household, almost always there to greet anyone entering the mansion, bringing drinks, and just generally helping out. He's almost always cheerful with a smile on his face, unless he thinks he's make a mistake or insulted you in some way, and then he is quick to apologize. Sasakura-san has incredible skills at bartending, and he can make any drink you ask, so long as he has the supplies. He can also make you the perfect drink for your mood/situation/whatever, having incredible observational skills.
Unfortunately for Sasakura-san, he IS an android, and there appears to be some malfunction in either his programming or build. Because of this, he will occasionally shut down, requiring someone to either find a red 'restart' button (many are scattered around the house), or locate Aylee or Haley.
Random Facts: His bar in the anime 'Bartender' was called 'Eden hall'.
Samples of Speech: "Yes, sir. If you take a right up the stairs, the library will be the first door on your left." "I apologize, ma'am, but if you wouldn't mind waiting, I'm sure I could locate it for you." "I am truly sorry, I did not mean to cause any insult. Is there anything I can do to..."
If you wish, you may find episodes of the anime here

Darcy 'Malaysia' Cook
Age: 20
Hair Color: Light Blond
Eye Color: Black
Height: 6'1"
Malaysia is one of the members of Kunny's band. She's the lead singer and bassist, with a bad habit of dancing all around the stage when she gets excited. Which is almost always. No one really remembers where she got the stage name 'Malaysia', but very few people refer to her as Darcy anymore, except Haley (who has known her since they were 6) and Sasakura-san. Malaysia often acts indifferent to things, but in truth is actually fascinated by just about everything. In some ways her height gives her an advantage in this, because it causes people to become nervous and ramble. She likes this. She often becomes more friendly and open once she's spent a lot of time with someone, however.
Malaysia doesn't consider her race to be an issue most of the time. Unless someone starts insulting her friends for being around her, she simply brushes off the insults. Fortunately, it doesn't seem to have affected the success of their band.
As far as clothing goes, Malaysia is most often prone to wearing skimpy clothes with light colors. Usually trendy stuff, but not always. She doesn't seem to like sleeves, though if she's wearing a shirt with them, the're big and fall past her fingers.
Fortunately, Malaysia is a formidable encyclopedia of knowledge. Ask her anything, she can probably answer. Or tell you where to find out.
Random Facts: Malaysia very rarely reads. The only reason she knows the location of the library in the mansion is because people keep pointing it out to her. She also likes to exercise, and can often be found in either the gym or the exercise room.
Samples of Speech: "Yes, I suppose one could see it that way. But I still don't see why it's my problem." "You... want me to get it down for you... Damn short people." "*giggle* And here I thought you were a complete idiot."

Haley 'Sprocket' Turner
Age: 20
Hair Color: Red
Eye Color: Auburn
Height: 5'4"
No one really knows how Haley and Malaysia ended up becoming friends, but they have been for a long time. Just like Malaysia, Haley has a nickname, but the only person who calls him it is Malaysia herself, and potentially any other band mate they may end up getting (they are still in need of a drummer). In fact, no one really understands why Haley has ANY friends at all. He's a rather creepy person, with his smile and goggles and hat. He's always laughing at things, and finds people falling down stairs hilarious. Or, just personal tragedy in general. (Fall down a well? Haley'd be laughing and pointing. And not really trying to help). Despite this, he doesn't actually go out of his way to cause schadenfreude. That wouldn't be funny, now would it? He can also act a bit childish at times, and people always think he's younger than he is because of his height, especially when he's around Malaysia.
In the band he plays the synthesizer, and just generally makes noise. But he's very good at it. He built and programmed his synthesizer himself from scratch, and is considered one of the best by other musicians. Haley has always been good at building mechanical and electronic things, and is often upgrading the machines around him fixing them, or just taking them apart to see what makes them tick.
Haley prefers to wear a short or long sleeved shirt with a zip-up vest or short sleeved shirt over the top (it will always have a high collar), and very baggy Jeans. He doesn't pay too much attention to colors, so sometimes his clothes will look a bit garish to the eyes. This makes him laugh, but again he doesn't go out of the way to make it happen. He just wears whatever is clean.
Random Facts: No one actually knows Haley's IQ. Most people speculate that it's in the 180-190 range, but he refuses to get tested. People are also often trying to get him to build them synthesizers like his own, but he refuses that, too. He has perfect eyesight, so the reason he wears goggles is a mystery. And his hat? He's always wearing one unless he's showering or swimming. He can usually be found wandering the mansion, in his room, in the recording studio, or in the computer room. He's prone to technobabble, just to see people's reactions. So far the only one who can decypher it is Ryuu. His smile is generally considered to be creepy.
Samples of Speech: "Hee. That was so predictable." "*cackles* Shadenfreude's a b***h, isn't she?" "Complete fail." "Hmmmmmmeh. If you don't want it, I'll take it!"

Flat Sales

All flatsales are prompt-based, and everyone is given a pre-determined amount of time in which to enter. The amount of time changes with every flatsale. Sadly, flatsales are becoming more and more uncommon as we now have quite a few Sin'aeis. When flatsales DO occur there will be between thee and five children up for grabs.

Auctions

Auctions are typically for some special Sin I have concocted (such as a Mistake, or a holiday-themed Sin). On rare occasions we may even auction customs, but since we set up the custom section it's doubtful. Auctions usually last between 3-4 days, or more if there's another event going along with it.

Rehoming Events

This is the third type of event in which I give away children. These take place typically after we take large amounts of children away from their owners for inactivity. Because we also have the Frozen Foods section, rehoming events aren't very common.

Customs! You KNOW you want to know about them, right? We do customs on occasion, but it's not very often, and when we DO take them we will not announce it before hand. Customs are not exempt from RP requirements, so you WILL have to RP them to keep them. So if you're really not all that dedicated to the shop, don't buy yourself a 500k custom. We will NOT refund you the price.

There are some things you get to choose with any custom: The name, gender, and owner. But other than that, each level offers different options:

Stage 1 Custom: 100k
This means you only get to choose two colors and the element.

Stage 2 Custom: 250k
For this stage you can choose two colors, one odd feature, one job, and the element.

Stage 3 Custom: 500k
For this you get to choose everything I normally offer in a custom: two colors, two to three odd features (depends on if we like the ideas you come up with), and two jobs.

There are some odd features you CANNOT get with a custom: Bi-colored eyes and Wings. We have enough Sin with both, and they're so over done. Sorry!

Frozen Foods... What are they? A child who has been placed in Frozen Foods is in a sort of stasis. They were taken away from their owners due to lack of activity, and have been placed here awaiting new owners.

We give away Frozen Foods in two methods: First and foremost we can give them to new owners at our discretion, if we think someone has an interest in them. Please do NOT ask for a frozen food Sin, however. It is up to US to decide who they go to.

The other method is through rehoming events. These happen very rarely, but they do happen. Sometimes not all Frozen Foods will make it into the event.

Again, do NOT ask for these Sin. You cannot buy them, either.
