08-11-2005

I'm sorry to say that due to health problems, I simply cannot keep up with both of my breedable shops at the moment. Instead of putting the StarKits shop on hiatus for an indefinite time, I decided it would be better to find somebody who'd take over and keep the shop alive.

Fortunately, .-Chibi.Starr-. and MommaSnoopy offered to buy the shop from me, and I know it will be in very good hands with them... .-Chibi.Starr-. was the original owner and lineartist of this shop, in fact!

I'll still be around as a customer, but as the shop owner, I hereby step back. I'd like to say thank you to all owners, bumpers and other shop regulars!

Old news

7/26 ~ The first Capricats flatsale was over in 36 minutes!
7/16 ~ Qui-Gon Jinn has been sold to Spookies! Also, I have new lineart for the shop, so expect to see a new species, soon... For a sneak peak, take a look at "Recent Changes"!
7/8 ~ The Obi-Wan cosplay auction is over, and now I'm auctioning off Obi's master, Qui-Gon Jinn! (Link in first post!)
6/19 ~ Kyoka Chan's raffle is over! Winners, please post here to let me know name and gender, or if you've won a custom, fill out a custom form.
6/14 ~ The flatsale is over, and so is mer's birthday raffle. Welcome, new owners! Please check out Kyoka Chan's and Katsumi's birthday raffles, which include Starkits, UFOs and Muumus! (Links in "Sales" post!)
6/12 ~ New thread, again, since Gaia won't let me edit the old one at the moment. Also, I have donated pets to another two birthday raffles, and there is a flatsale for 5 pre-colored UFOs.
6/8 ~ I donated a StarKit and an UFO to mer's birthday raffle.
6/7 ~ We have new certs and slightly altered lineart! I've switched all the StarKits and UFOs over to the new certs, and where it was possible without having to re-draw everything, to the new lineart as well.

So, if you are not currently direct-linking to your StarKit or UFO and you want the new certs and lineart, head over the the photoalbum!
6/5 ~ Yoda + Anakin Auction
6/1 ~ Previews for the next flatsale are up!
5/29 ~ The first UFO flatsale sold out in 75 minutes! Not bad, is it?
5/18 ~ I've bought new lineart for the shop! I'm currently busy making shading templates, new banners etc.
5/9 ~ The first flatsale under new management went fine; all Star Kits have found good homes.
5/7 ~ The shop is under new management! The Little Kitsune sold it to me, and I will do my best to keep it up and running smoothly. 3nodding
4/23 ~ Working on stuff today. ^^ Starkits Evolution! Some of you might be happy to find out that your Starkit has grown. Also please, if there is (???) next to your starkits name on the owners list, it is because I never got the URL for your starkits journal. Please, PLEASE send me the link!
4/12 ~ The flatsale started late, but I dont think it really mattered because they both sold out within five minutes. Then again, there was only two. That is only the first part however - as I hope to finish up that generation with two more starkits on either saturday night or sunday. Congrats to the two proud owners of the pink and brown starkits!
4/8 ~ Flatsale MONDAY Check below for more details. So far the known starkits that will be in this flatsale is a pink female and brown female starkit! However there has been word that a silver and black starkit may also be available.
4/5 ~ MommaSnoopy got yet another Starkit ^^. She won the special Space Starkit. I have a few things to work on - but hopefully by next week there will be a flatsale. Rumor is that one star is pink, but the others still unknown.
3/28 ~ Well that was a good event. MommaSnoopy got the special easter Starkit and also won the bumping contest. MommaSnoopy, you can use the half off ticket on the Auction tonight - it's equal to 1.75k. And everyone please join in. Its to benifit my OMG hat quest, and there might be a suprise with it if you win!
3/27 ~ EASTER EVENT Chat and hang out - Contests and such! Easter Auction!
3/18 ~ Raffle Winner Gabrielle Diamond. Gasp! The first Generation Kits also grew up to children. How Cute!
3/15 ~ St. Patrick Raffle. I cleared up the lineart and made it look better than ever ^^. Sorry first gen people who have the kinda messy lineart - but at least your's is the original so feel special.
3/13 ~ STACIE IS GROUNDED FROM THE COMPUTER TODAY everything will be put to a pause, but if you want the red starkit, please post saying so ^^
3/12 ~ FLATSALE ^^
3/12 ~ Next Scheduled Flatsale 10am(est)! Four Starkits will be available. Rumor has it that there will be two girls and two boys...but the colors are unknown.
heart 3/11 ~ Shop Opened!

The story in a nutshell

Wish upon a star... And a StarKit might make it come true.

Starkits come from the heavens, falling from the sky as special stars. Each and every StarKit is unique - there are no two alike, just as every star is different. Starkits come whenever a wish is made upon their star and they become a guardian and friend of the one who beckoned them. Starkits love human attention, they frolic in love and kindness. However if you are cruel and neglect your Starkit, they will slowly wither away from loneliness. Without humans, they would have no need to exist. It is only when you wish and believe that will they come...

Capricats are fallen stars, just like the Starkits. Like them, they are called down from the sky when a wish is made - but they are born from a very different kind of wish... Have you ever been mad at your best friend and wished in a moment of anger that something bad would happen to them? This is the kind of wish that the Capricats are born of - the ugly, angry wishes that you instantly regret. That doesn't necessarily make the Capricats evil, though! They simply represent a darker part of you, and in fact, their purpose seems to be to help you overcome the dark feelings that led you to make the wish that called them.

U.F.O.s (Unidentified Feline Objects) are tiny, but highly intelligent catlike creatures that travel the universe. They are curious and friendly beings, and they've been known to frequently befriend other races, among them the StarKits. If they do so, they form a strong, unbreakable bond with "their" StarKit and happily accompany them wherever they go, for the rest of their lives.

Muumus seem to be distant relatives of the U.F.O.s, and like them, they are friendly, open beings who are curious and like to befriend new races.

(( StarKits: ))

(( Male Capricats: ))

(( Female Capricats: ))

Descriptions

Star ~ When you make your wish, the star you wished upon falls from the sky down to earth.

Child ~ After about seven to eight days, the star transforms into a child. Children need lots of love and care.

Adult ~ 12 to 14 days pass and your child becomes a beautiful, independent adult. Although they tend to be okay on their own, they still need the love and affection from a human to keep them happy.

(( Female U.F.O.s: ))

(( Male U.F.O.s: ))

Descriptions

Flying Saucer ~ As curious as U.F.O.s are, they are also shy and vulnerable when they are very young, so as babies, they rarely come out of their little spaceships.

Child ~ After about seven to eight days, you can expect the U.F.O. child to venture out of the ship for the first time.

Adult ~ 12 to 14 days pass, and the child becomes a smart, resourceful adult. Unbonded U.F.O.s now start to travel the universe on their own, while bonded U.F.O.s stay with "their" StarKit.

Descriptions

Egg ~ Muumu eggs are almost unbreakable, and it's not yet been scientifically proven that the Muumu inside the egg is influenced in any way by the sounds that filter in from the outside... but it certainly can't hurt to speak with your Muumu egg or play music to it, just in case.

Child ~ After about seven to eight days, your Muumu hatches and becomes an adventurous, curious child. They can't truly fly, yet, but they can hover for a few seconds.

Adult ~ 12 to 14 days pass, and the child matures to an adult though Muumus retain a certain childlike quality in their behaviour. Now they can use their wings fully and fly.

* Please don't PM me; post your questions and bids here in the thread.

* No chatspeak or cussing, please! You wouldn't want our pets to pick up bad habits, would you? wink

Ownership Rules

* Up to two people may co-own a StarKit/U.F.O.
* If you ever get tired of your StarKit/U.F.O., don't just throw the poor thing away! You can either:
--> donate it back to me, and I'll hold a raffle to give it away to somebody else for free
--> get a refund of 2700g if your StarKit/U.F.O. was a flatsale StarKit/U.F.O., and I'll sell the StarKit/U.F.O. to a new owner with the next flatsale
--> let me auction the StarKit/U.F.O. off for you if your StarKit/U.F.O. was an auction StarKit/U.F.O., and you'll get 50% of the income

Flatsale Rules

* Flatsale StarKits/U.F.O.s cost 3k, unless otherwise specified in the sales post.
* Flatsales are usually first come, first serve. I will post the words "Flatsale GO!" in big green letters to start off the sale, and the first person to post that they want a StarKit/U.F.O. after that will get it.
* To claim a StarKit/U.F.O., make sure that you post the number of the StarKit/U.F.O. you want. You can also post the number of a StarKit/U.F.O. you want in case your first choice was already claimed by somebody else.

* I only accept pure gold as payment for flatsales.
* You can only buy one StarKit/U.F.O. per flatsale.

* Don't back out of your bids, and please don't bid more than you can afford!
* I accept pure gold or letters/donation items at mid-GEN price.

* Bids before an auction begins are null and void.

FREE Raffle Rules

* FREE raffles will be held to give out FREE StarKits/U.F.O.s, usually StarKits/U.F.O.s that were donated back to the store by somebody.
* You can only have one ticket per FREE raffle; please don't use mule accounts to get more tickets.
* To take part in the raffle, wait until I've made a post saying "FREE Raffle GO!!!", then post that you'd like to participate. I will then give you a ticket.
* FREE raffles usually close after one week.

NORMAL Raffle Rules

* A ticket for a NORMAL raffle costs 50g.
* You can buy as many tickets as you want.
* I will post the words "Raffle GO!" in big green letters to start off the raffle.
* After the raffle has started, you can post here to say how many tickets you want. You can buy more tickets anytime, as long as the raffle is still open.
* The information when the raffle begins and ends can usually be found in the "Sales" section.

General FAQ

How do I get a StarKit/U.F.O. of my own?

Wait for a flatsale, auction or raffle.

Can I please please have a StarKit/U.F.O. for free?

Sometimes. If anybody tires of their StarKit/U.F.O. and donates it back to me, I will give it away for free in a raffle. Check the News section to see if any raffles are going on at the moment.

Do I need to save to my own server, or will you host it?

I will host the picture, and it's important that you direct-link, because else your StarKit/U.F.O. will not grow!

How many StarKits/U.F.O.s can I have?

As many as you want, but only one per sale or auction.

Will you do a pet trade?

Yes, if I like the pet! Just PM me and we can talk about it.

Do I have to roleplay?

No. Roleplay is in no way enforced, but if you do want to roleplay, we have a nice guild where you can do so.

Sales & Auctions

When is the next flatsale?

Look in the News section. When I decide there will be one, I will post it there.

Will you reserve?

Sorry, no. It wouldn't be fair to the people who have been waiting.

Breeding

Can I breed my StarKit/U.F.O.?

Not just yet, but keep an eye on the breeding post!

I've decided to take down the list of pets I would trade for... I constantly see pets that I like, and everyday, new shops with great pets open. So if you'd like to do a pet trade, just PM me, and if I have time and like your pet, we can work something out!

I prefer pets that don't require roleplay, as I don't always have time to. Also, I'm not such a huge fan of humanoid or anthro pets.
