...Where does the story begin?</center>

<img src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v316/Voli/ishito2copy.gif" align=left>
"Hello and welcome to the Voli Headquarter. I am the store keeper, Ishito. It thrills me that you're interested in purchasing one of these wonderful creatures, and I do assure you they will make great pets.
Feel free to look around the building, though I'm sorry 2nd floor is a restricted area. Over behind that door is the Voli kennel.The avialible Volies are kept there, and we also offer baby-sitting services.
You may find some Volies in the "backyard" too. Our shop is located right beside Bass'ken lake, offering a wonderful open area for your Voli to enjoy. Please use the stairs when leaving through the back door, as the hill to the lake is abit steep.

If you may have a question, I will be pleased to answer it to my best intent. Enjoy your stay! "



<center>[History]</center>
"So you wish to know about Volies? Well, I'll be glad to tell you...
No two Volies are the same. They each have different personality, likes, and dislikes. Finding a perfectly compatible Voli might be a challenge, but I promise it's worth it.
Voli has a nature to dig. It's somewhat surprising, but they will try to borrow through soft grounds. It's not a big problem if the problem arises, as they're easy to train.
I wish I knew the complete history of these creatures, but I only know so much. Afterall, I'm just a storekeeper. As far as I've read, Voli appears in this book, an epic poem about a legendary hero of the greek mythology...

Stage 1: Kao
<center>User Image</center>
Volies are purchased at this stage. These critters are fairly small and like to curl up in a ball. Be careful, do not mistake them for one.
Kao's fur serves as the best protection for the baby Volies. (Do note that babies have legs, it's just not visible b/c of the fur)

These babies like to sleep most of the times, but they do need a lot of care. Feed them fresh water and the special food pellet that comes with puchase. It's a good idea to bring them to the shop often for check-up.

Stage 2: Cub
<center>User Image</center>

Voli grows fairly fast. In 2-4 weeks they'll look a lot bigger. Most of the fur from the tail have shed, and it now points up-ward.
If you have tried communicating with them in thier earlier stage, they might have some understanding to your native tongue.

Cubs are very curious and audacious. This would be a good time to train your Volies. They also seem to have a big appetite. Feed them food that's high in protein such as meat.


Stage3: Adult

After some thinking, I've decided to open up breeding slots for Volies from the old shop. For right now, there will be 3 slots. If there's not much demand, I'll probably close it, and that will be the end of that. 3nodding

Breeding for old Volies will cost 5k and guaranteed to produce an offspring XD. (But note, they may only breed one time) You may decide on a gender for you Kao. The pattern will be based on the parent Volies, and it may be semi-customizable. (slight tweaking of color, pattern, etc)
Slots
1. Teckno: pg 56 *done!*
2. Sparvel: pg 31
3.

...It's an acronym.</center>

  • I love Voli!
    ~ Yes, that's very nice <3

  • Can I have one for free please?
    ~ No sorry.

  • Soo...what's gonna happen to the old Volies?
    ~ Well, they're still here. Since all the old Volies are adults, they're fairly independent. You're welcomed to bring them into the new HQ and meet the little ones. As for breeding, check the breeding post for more info.

  • How are Volies related to the Gaian world?
    ~ Volies are originated from "Gaia", not another premade world. You are welcomed to incorperate them with your other gaian pets/character.

  • Can we co-own?
    ~ The only way is through breeding in which the offspring can be co-owned.
  • Are they RP required?
    ~ Nope. You're welcomed to RP, and it is encouraged. You might miss out on some fun! (No pressure though XD )

  • How do Volies communicate?
    ~ Voli can't speak like humans. Like many other animals they communicate by expression, action, and noise. Though after time, they'll understand your language a lot better. Older volies, if they choose, can communicate among each other telepathically. The bond they share corrosponds to the strength of the transmission.
  • I would love to work for Voli!
    ~ I'm flattered, but I can't just let anyone become a staff ^.^; You'll do a great part to spread the words about Voli and bumping the thread when necessary. If I am in need of help, I will post it in the thread.

  • I'm not really good at RPing...
    ~ It doesn't have to be perfect. If you really need help with understanding Role-playing, feel free to ask me.

  • I still have a question!
    ~ If you can not find the answer on the front page, ask me by posting in the thread.

Yay, Ree here, I'm the owner of this shop, which was once owned by Teckno, the original founder of Voli. 3nodding This is my first breedable shop, and it's not easy to run and organize, unlike how I expected it to be.
I'm also the tagger, colorist, lineartist, so as you can see, I have a lot on my hand.

Since Voli didn't have a specific specie it's based on, I've decided to base it on Pomeranians, which is a breed of dog that resembles a fox.
I have a Pom of my own, more specific, my Mom's Pom.

You might wonder where the name came from...
I like to name most my pets/characters based on video game characters, because...well, I can X3
Unfortunately, alot of the names I wanted was taken, but I'm glad this one wasn't.
Ishito is the Japanese name for the character Norris from Chrono Cross (one of my favorite RPGs)
He's a pretty kewl character, but if you're wondering which one is my favorite, I'd probably say Glenn. heart

<center> The original Voli shop was ran by Teckno that started on May 22nd, 2004. I was very luck to be able to buy the shop. Voli was one of my first breedables and I really liked it. So to make things short, this one goes to Teckno XD

A pet shop is nothing without pets. And the backbone to all pets are the simple linearts that make everything happen. Mite did the original concept sketches for Voli. She's also been very helpful with creating new sketches for the new Voli shop.
