The Shop



User ImageThe Castaway Dream shop is located on a small tropical island two miles off the shore of Gambino. The water level between Gambino's shores and that of the island is so shallow a average sized human can wade the distance and the water will only reach midchest level.

Rules


1) Castaway Dreams are Non-Maintence pets. You do not have any obligations when you buy one of these pets. You do not need to keep a journal or post in the shop. Your CD will not be taken from you unless you break one of the rules that states requsition as a consequence.

2) Do not think that coming in here and killing off your CD will get you your way or even upset me. If anything it will get your juvinale butt banned from my shop and all your CD's requisitioned. They will then be auctioned off starting at 1G and you, and all alternative accounts, will be forever banned from owning a pet I have colored, or from any shop I own.

3) I do not want my shop to turn into a clique' I understand some folks simply do not like others, but this shop is not your personal playground (It's mine) and I want everyone to have a equal oppertunity to own a CD, RP a pet, or otherwise hang out here. (I am not excluded from this rule, I will ban myself from the shop temporarily if I ever break this rule mrgreen ) However, if you have been banned from this shop for breaking a rule this rule excludes you.

4) Ask questions and don't feel dumb. It's not allowed! Feeling dumb I mean. Please do read the FAQ's though before you start asking questions. If it's not in the FAQ's then you have every right to ask any silly question you want! lol

5) Don't flame my shop! This rule is supersized so I will not take any excuses about 'not seeing or knowing' of it. I consider it flaming if you come in here and start badmouthing the folks that come here. If you start up arguments or foul types of conversations your a flamer in my book. You will be banned, you will be reported, and you will find me ignoreing you completly.

6) Please use common sense and courtesy with your conversations. If your upset at someone I understand that your going to say something, but please take it to PM's before carrying on too far.

7) Don't let RL issues or issues outside this thread cross over. What this means is, ifyou had a real bad day at home, it does not give you the right to come in here and start snapping at people who have nothing to do with your problem. If you do this I will give you one warning. If it happens again you will be placed in Limbo. (Folks I do not read every single post that is made. I am kinda busy myself RL, so if you see something like this happening please PM me with a link to the disturbance or one of my staff members that has the authority to deal with the situation.)

cool I reserve the right to alter, edit, and add rules at my own whim.

<center>General F.A.Q. </center>

Q: Is Role Playing and Journal Keeping the only way to get my Dream a item or power?

Answer
Nope. There will be auctions for some powers and some Items. The rareity of the item or power up for auction will vary however.


Q: Can my Dream die?

Answer
Yes your Dream can die. Just like all dreams, neglect of the Dream can kill it. The Dream can also be killed in RP. However there are penalties for those that kill other peoples Dreams against their wish. There are also penalties for killing your Dream in a manner deemed immature by me. Your Dream will not die, however, if you do not RP or Journal post for it.


Q: Can I lose my Dream?

Answer
Yes you can, by ticking me off. Other then that you need not fear for your Dream. Nor do you need worry about me. I'm not one who plays favorites and I'm not that easy to get angry or offended. Any Dream that is taken away from a disrespectful person will be put up for auction, starting a 1G and will go to the highest bidder that day. People whom have had the Dream taken away may not bid on a Dream ever again.


Q: Can I breed my Dream?

Answer
Yup. Dreams can sometimes merge and give birth to new dreams! Gender is not a issue when it comes to breeding.


Q: Four stages? Is that all?

Answer
Not anymore! mrgreen There are now stages that can be reached by useing special items on regular dreams and Yudou! There are also new races added here, Fancies and Deejarne. Soon there will also be Nightmares that you can own!


Q: Can I RP my other Pets with my Dream?

Answer
Well...I would like that. I'm working on getting some Role Play Affiliates. Basically, these are people who wouldn't mind your Dream playing with their pet in their RP thread. Nowhere, unfortunatly, is a place that only a Dream can travel to. You can't even accompany them there. More will be explained when I get a RP thread set up.


Q: Can my Dream talk?

Answer
Yes and no. When a Dream is a Whisp it can not speak. It isn't until the Dream reachs the state of Awake that the Dream can begin to speak. When a Dream reachs Awake it begins to absorb information at a rapid rate. The Dream will begin to learn how to speak your language, and those of your pets, with much ease. After the Dream becomes Aware it's learning capacity slows down and it becomes harder for it to learn new languages.

It should be noted that Dreams have their own form of communication that is like telepathy. This form of communication can be used ONLY between Dreams. Even the Whisps can do this. It's a natrual ability and nothing can block it.


Q: What is the Whisp made of?

Answer
A Whisp appears to be made of mist and softly glowing light. It is transparent and can be looked through. A Whisp has no solid form until it hits the sleeping state. Whisp's can not be broken apart by wind, and normally they don't have any trouble by being pushed by it. They can float through cracks, but they do not break up.


Q: Is my Dream a Guy or a Girl?

Answer
Most Flatsale Dreams and commisioned Dreams can have their gender choosen by the person that buys them. Those that are not decided at purchase unfortunatly risk the certist chooseing for them. On Flat Sale certs, the gender is a small icon right below the Dreams name. On Special certs, the icon for gender is located to the lower right of the bubble. Here is a sample of the symbols.


User Image

Q: What the heck is that third symbol???

Answer
The first two are obvious enough, but that third? Well...that gender is known as Yudou. The Yudou gender is -extremly- rare and can only be gained through custom auctions. A Yudou Dream can become male or female at whim, and tends to be ranked as a Demi-god. Yudou are immune to the poison of Nightmares and are the only species that can transecend into the Angellic form.


Q. Do Dreams remeber who first dreamth them and what they were?

Answer
ninja That is partly up to the owners. Dreams can remember who originally dreamt then, and what they were about. But that comes with a price. It means they will be driven to fulfill whatever that dream was, even if it's impossible. Those that can't remember may try to, this is both good and bad cause then they can get attached to their new dreamer and become 'their dream' instead, but they will feel a bit of a longing to discover their roots. Dreams that remember nothing completly bond with their dreamer. Which is good because it forms a very deep connection, yet even this can be bad, due to the fact the dream will feel more acutely the pull to enter Nowhere because they have nothing else to 'distract' them lets say.


Q. Do Dreams dream?

Answer
Yes they do. Normally when a Dream dreams, it's just the same as when we ourselves dream. However, if two dreams dream together in a elemental temple...their dreams will merge and form new whisps!

Item Shoppe


User ImageOff to the left side of the Castaway building is the shop itself. A small nook of a place really, with white shelves in one corner and a fine golden wood counter seperating it from the rest of the room. Upon the counter is, of course, a small antique register, where payment can be made for the collection of items that LC somehow manages to forage up. How does he do it? how does LC amanage to get items from Nowhere into his shop? No one seems to know, but there they are! From time to time something new will pop up on his shelves!

Alongside the counter area is a all room with a locked door. Only a few have managed to peek inside this room, and what they've seen is nothing out of the ordinary. More white shelves line the wall and odd bits are stacked upon them. Over all most of the room is dusty with webs clinging to angles and the scent of age clinging to the confines.

One usually needs only glance at the shelves to see if LC has anything currently for sale and then hunt him down to buy it, seeing as how he doesn't exactly play shopkeep and linger behind the counter...


Celestial Crystal
User Image This glittering rainbow tinted crystal possesses large quantities of celestial energy. When tapped it has the power to cause a transformation to overcome the dream holding it. This crystal can only be used on the following Dreams: Basic, Fancie, Yudou.

Cost: 10K
Avalible: 0/1


Distilled Venom Potion
User ImageDistilled Nightmare Venom is a rare item to come across. Nightmares jealousely protect their venom, preferring to inflict it pure into the veins of Dreams. By distilling the venom, the poison loses the corrupting taint that turns Dreams into Nightmares. Rather, the Dream, after imbibing the distilled venom, undergoes a strange transformation that strengthens them without ripping away what they are inside. This potion may be used on Dreams, Fancies, and Yudou.

Cost: 10K
Avalible: 1/1


Shades
User Image Dark in color, they also come in blue and gold. These nifty shades will make any dream feel, and maybe look, cool. Shades can be worn by: Dreams, Deejarne

Current Deejarne Item
User ImageThe Shell Necklace can be worn only by the Water Deejarne. This special necklace comes in gold, silver, and copper. When worn, it increases the Deejarne's personal power.

Cost: 10K
Avalible: 2/2


Acid Orb Rune
User Image This center of this green runestone seems to sear the eyes that look upon it. When used, it burns a image of a glowing orb into the dreams paw, a painful expereince, but one that has remarkable results. When in battle, the dream may take 4 points of health damage to summon and hurl towards their opponent a neon green ball of acid. This attack deals the normal amount of damage* + 3d6 acid damage to the target opponent if the attack is successful, and 1d4 damage if the attack is unsuccessful. If the attack is successful, the opponent takes an additional 1d6 damage every round following the attack round. This damage can be stacked with further Acid Orb attacks.

Cost: 5K
Avalible: 1/2

Nowhere: Introduction


Welcome to Nowhere. This place can not be found, it can not be described, it can not be seen. Yet it exists. In this place things are born that require no parent in order to be conceived. Dreams are born here. From mere thoughts and flights of fancy, Dreams are given substance and form.

In Nowhere, the dream of a child can create a world. Yet at the same time, the loss of childhood innocence can bring about Armageddon. As long as there are dreamers, there are dreams. However, even though a person may give up on a dream, that does not mean it fades out of existence. Nay...dreams do not die. They merely become dormant, until another would waken them.

Here, in Nowhere, Dreams float as mist. Forgotten and cast away. Until now, no one has known of these orphans of imagination. But a gateway has been opened and the dreams are slowly being pulled from Nowhere. They are scattering on the wind, seeking out someone to awaken them. Someone to Dream them back to life. Perhaps even...someone to help them find a home, and fulfillment....


___________________________________________________________________

Nowhere 101


This is the place that Dreams come from. It is a place that only they can travel to as well. As your Dream becomes Awake and Aware, it may have the pull to explore Nowhere. Nowhere is the place of it's birth after all, and a place where it can learn about itself.

Nowhere is a ever shifting land of chaos. On one trip it could resemble a woodland forest. On another it may look like New York City. Yet on another it could be a mystical countryside chock full of oddities. Nowhere is shaped by the subconscious imaginations of children, meaning a Dream could be trotting down a forest trail, turn the corner,and find itself stareing down a busy mainstreet avenue just a few feet away.

Many wonderful things can be discovered in Nowhere...but many dangers lurk there as well. Beasts of nightmares and terrors of the imagination roam Nowhere freely, and could come upon your Dream at any time. What makes Nowhere so very dangerouse for a Dream, is the fact it must travel there alone. You nor any of your pets can accompany a Dream into Nowhere. Meaning it is wise to keep a Dream from traveling there until they are at least fully Awake and have had some time to discover a power or two of their own.

_________________________________________________________________
Rules of Nowhere


1) Only Dreams can travel to Nowhere. As they grow older and more powerful...there may be a way you, or one of your other pets, can accompany them on their search through Nowhere.

2) All Dreams have the desire to return to Nowhere. It's part of their being, Dreams that lack this desire usually fade away.

3) Yes, your Dream can be hurt in Nowhere. There are powerful monsters that roam Nowhere. Your Dream can even 'die' in Nowhere. However, if death is experienced in Nowhere, the dream simply returns to your side, wounded and weak, and will require a period of healing rest before it can attempt to return to Nowhere.

4) Yes, Dreams can meet other Dreams in Nowhere, and can even team up for the benifit of Safty.

5) Once a Dream has discovered a certain part of Nowhere, they can always return to that place. The many faces of Nowhere are constantly shifting about, like noodles in a pot sort of. But if a Dream has been to a particular section, it needs only concentrate, and it will be able to feel out where that place is now.

6) Dreams can carry back through the barrier of Nowhere, anything they find on that side.

The Guild itself is where a majority of owners create journals for their dreams as well as RP. The following is a quick link list of the different placesyou can go in the guild and what each place offers.

Compendiums
The Compendiums are a wellspring of information. Each one gives more indepth desriptions about different aspects of this shop.

Yudou Compendium This Compendium lists the Yudous, or God Dreams, that exsist. It gives information about their domains and powers. Yudou are the rarest of all Dreams and the most powerful.

Nightmare Compendium This Compendium lists the different kinds of Nightmares at exsist in Nowhere, what their powers and weaknesses are, and if they are a species that can be gained as pets/companions.

Magical Compendium Spells and artifacts are listed here. If you find a magic item just peek in here for a description of what powers it grants your dream!

Accessory Compendium Items that aren't classified as Magical scrolls, runestones, or artifacts can be found here. Some of these items grant your dream a special ability or stat bonus. Check them out when you find them to decide if you want your dream to wear it or not. mrgreen


Misc Links
The following links are a general mish-mash of different things. You'll have to check out the descriptions to get an idea of what each thread is for.

The Breeding Chamber This is where baby whisp's are made! This thread gives you all the information you need to know on how to breed and how the results for each breeding are made.

Customer Service Have a problem with the shop or a dream? Please, feel free to post it here. I check this thread daily and try to get things fixed as quickly as possible. If you don't post it thought, more n' likely I won't remember it!

Meet My Dream Sort of the classifieds section for Dreams seeking mates or breeding. Dream owners are encouraged to post the picca of their dream along with what your hoping to find for them. If your looking for a mate for your dream, a RP partner, or to make pretty babies this is the thread to do it in.

Suggestion Thread Got an idea for the shop? I love hearing the ideas of my patrons. Cosplay ideas, contest ideas, RP ideas are allw elcomed and really encouraged.

The Joining Glade This is where dreams become mated and form their own packs. All relative information to creation of packs is found here. (Not implemented)

Races and Stages Slowly but surely I am adding a quick list of all stages and races that you can find here in Castaway Dreams. If your interested in knowing how to get a particular dream, check this thread out.

Re-Dreamt Dreams A collection of all dreams that have been sold. It's incomplete right now but I'm attempting to list them all. If you lose your link to your dream check this thread first. if your dream is not included in the list please post it in the thread and it shall soon be added.

Training Arena Entering Nowhere is dangerouse and risky busniess. For dreams that aren't all that powerful, a trip to the Training Arena is probably the best move for them. Contests are held here sometimes and prizes are awarded. Careful though...now and then a rouge Nightmare makes it's way into the pit!

Contests Every so often a contest will pop up and well..happen! Not very often though. Quite rarely in fact, when there is a contest though, you can be sure to find out about it here!


Role Play
Nowhere Nowhere, the place where all Dreams come from. This is the chaotic world in civil war. A place tainted and overrun with Nightmares. Here you can find wonderous sights, amazeing items, wonderful friends, and dangerouse enemies! All important information is posted on the first page. It is vital you read it before entering this place!
