Avengaea: FACE LIFT!!

JKatkina · Post by **JKatkina** » Thu Mar 23, 2006 10:02 pm

http://www.avengaea.com/

Avengaea has gotten a face lift and a new domain name! This has been in the works for quite some time, in no small part because there is a metric tonne of NEW INFORMATION!! For those familiar with the old site and information, check out the Human section of the Creatures heading, some of the asandus sections for extras, and the entire World menu.

And there's more to come, about asandae, caetrae and Avengaea's geography, by the end of August. But for now... enjoy! And please, ask questions about whatever else you want to know, but can't find on the site!

And the links to the Nidus and to Sanctuary are both under 'Participation', for the interested, or right here:

I thought Shanie said she wasn't coming back at all? At least that's what I got out of her post? *blinks*

JKatkina · Post by **JKatkina** » Thu Mar 23, 2006 10:14 pm

*headscritches* Well, I'm not sure either way, so I figured saying 'hiatus' would be more... courteous? I'm'a get in contact with her another way, in any case.

Actually, I talked to her since I was checking URLs a month or so back. She said she wasn't planning on returning, but that her server ate her pages so they wouldn't get replaced. You might want to ask her but I think that's what she told me happened. (Had two abandoned myself. ;_;)

;.; But that blue-light female that was ditzy and that I really liked! *sadface* She was fun!

I swear I've seen them up somewhere... ^^ huh. I'll check later, could I have an extension? mmmrr... either I've mixed up adolescent images with the adult, seen the copy on another URL after I moved the site and didn't tell you, or...

mmmmrrr... ^^ I'll contact you about it during this weekend?

JKatkina · Post by **JKatkina** » Fri Mar 24, 2006 8:32 am

Well, if Shanie doesn't want her, she'll be coming home. <: )

Sunny, that would be awesome! :3 Consider yourself given an extension.

JKatkina · Post by **JKatkina** » Sat Apr 01, 2006 3:26 pm

Aright, a number of the 'disappeared' dragons, I've found or been told where they are. (And Delyar is keeping hers, I contacted her and she gave me their new URL. :3 It's a good sign!)

But there are a few that I haven't even heard anything about, or who are still missing stages.

I'm going to give their owners until I announce the newest Avengaean bondings (which should be in the next couple of weeks, if not this weekend) to contact me, and then their dragons will be abandoned. This is horribly sad. D:

Dart and Caelius Vnesik - Juvenille stage missing! this is strange, as the adult one is there. Fuzzy, do you need the image again?
Celaseth and Semiel Geledran; Kendalith and Sino Ha'hran - page disappeared? Effie? You here?
Betula and Naro -- Page disappeared? Rachael, I know you're out there... *poke!*

I know Efellai said she was 'back', kind of, at one point, but... has anyone heard anything from her since then?

Also, Sunny, let me know when you get Cup' and Fen' up, ey? X3

JKatkina · Post by **JKatkina** » Sun Apr 02, 2006 12:24 pm

So I got the bonding finished quicker than I thought I would, so those people get until next weekend to contact me. I figure a single day's warning wasn't really fair. But, onto the meat!

The City of Sanctuary is back in business!

There have been two bondings, of far-overdue candidates. Kitsuneko! Ulipath and Utumith have bonded! In two weeks, I'll change their images to the juvenille stage, so have your young-images up by then, if you can. :3 Congratulations! You've gotten the first couple of Avens to come out of my site in a couple of years now!

Read the bonding!

Also, I am, as always, open for candidates, but now you won't have to wait ludicrous amounts of time to get your Asandae anymore. :3

Kitsuneko · Post by **Kitsuneko** » Sun Apr 02, 2006 12:29 pm

Le whoot! Videi and Esaude are awesome! Thanks!

JKatkina · Post by **JKatkina** » Sun Apr 02, 2006 12:38 pm

You're very welcome. ^__^ They were fun to write.

JKatkina · Post by **JKatkina** » Sun Apr 02, 2006 3:21 pm

Another bonding has happened, because I'm on fire today. :D

Jess D... :D Mercure has bonded!

Congratulations, and you've got two weeks to get him up. :3 That's April 16 you have to have the kit image up by. :D

Post by **Dray** » Sun Apr 02, 2006 3:35 pm

Love that shade of green! ^_^

And... if some of those dragons don't end up getting paged or called for, and you're not keeping them, I'd love to take one home.

jess d · Post by **jess d** » Sun Apr 02, 2006 6:49 pm

ooo! Thank you! She's lovely, and she'll be fun to write for. I'll have their story up soon!

JKatkina · Post by **JKatkina** » Sun Apr 02, 2006 6:54 pm

Great! :3 I wait with bated breath! And I'm very glad you like her. ^^

Dray -- Well, wait another week, and we'll see. >D

Kitsuneko · Post by **Kitsuneko** » Mon Apr 03, 2006 1:00 pm

Videi and Esaude are up!

Wonderful, thank you! :)

Shiolar · Post by **Shiolar** » Mon Apr 03, 2006 2:33 pm

Want some. Must write Candidates.

jess d · Post by **jess d** » Mon Apr 03, 2006 6:16 pm

Oh! Quick question: about how long does it take for them to grow from the kit stage to the juvenile, and then to adult? I know they age differently than some of the other dragons, but I'm not sure how long everything takes in-character.

JKatkina · Post by **JKatkina** » Mon Apr 03, 2006 6:41 pm

That depends on how old your character is, as the older they are, the faster the kit will age to 'catch up' to them. It's kind of like... the closer they get to their bond's physical and mental maturity level, the slower they age.

Let's see -- a kit the equivalent of eight years old bonding a 24 year old human will probably take... mmm, five or six years to reach full maturity, a lot of those years spent closer to maturity. I think the average for bondeds to reach full maturity is between three and ten years.

JKatkina · Post by **JKatkina** » Wed Apr 12, 2006 4:57 pm

Right, here's another one. :3 The charming Amarien has bonded.

His new partner is due up in two weeks (April 26) at which point the next stage shall go out!

This is also a reminder to Jess D. Four days to get Featau's young stage up, if you haven't already! :)

jess d · Post by **jess d** » Wed Apr 12, 2006 7:25 pm

Her pic is up, on their new stat page: www.geocities.com/tervenna/mercure0
I'm just not finished with her "young" story yet...

JKatkina · Post by **JKatkina** » Wed Apr 12, 2006 7:39 pm

Perfect! :3

A story isn't required (though much looked forward to if you do do it), so thank you for getting the image up. :3 I'll update my records accordingly.

**edit** :D :D Aaa! There's more there since I last looked! Glee! *runs to read*

jess d · Post by **jess d** » Thu Apr 13, 2006 10:57 pm

First, I was dumb and put the wrong link to the stat page (that was it's working link, but I changed it when I was ready to show it!). The actual stat page is www.geocities.com/tervenna/mfstats
And second, there is now more story. I hope the way I wrote him is okay!

Shiolar · Post by **Shiolar** » Fri Apr 14, 2006 5:33 am

Kaureiu is up! - http://shiolar.merseine.nu/mirus/amarien.htm

Have I said how much I absolutely adore him, yet? His personality absolutely rocks! I'm gonna have a lot of fun writing for him. I have plans, yes I do.

Post by **Dray** » Fri Apr 14, 2006 8:36 am

XD Undead cabbage! This story's going to get highly entertaining... or rather, /more/ highly entertaining, I figure!

Shiolar · Post by **Shiolar** » Fri Apr 14, 2006 8:47 am

I hope so. Amarien and Kaureiu are going to have quite an adventure when they get back to Bryquaine, and undead cabbages will be the least of their worries.

And, you know, it was totally time that I started advancing the plot for Bryquaine anyway, of which Amarien's story was always an intended part, even if the original plan had not actually included undead vegetables. Still, for my overall plan, Kaureiu is perfect; he's pretty much exactly what I was looking for to fill an important place in the future of Bryquaine.

JKatkina · Post by **JKatkina** » Fri Apr 14, 2006 9:27 am

Jess: X3 I actually hunted down their stats page myself when the link you gave was wrong! I've really enjoyed your whole story so far, too. :D!

X3! I'm glad he fits so well. I should have said this when I sent it out, but you have Dray to thank for the most entertaining bitlets of that story. X3 She snuck in and gave me a hand whle I wasn't looking.

Thanks, both of you, for doing so well with these! X3 I'm all excited about dragoning again.

Shiolar · Post by **Shiolar** » Fri Apr 14, 2006 10:12 am

Glad I helped get you excited about dragoning again. I shall have to send you more bonders to help keep you excited... (Not that I don't have my own motivations for collecting more of your lovely dragons, however..) Soon as I've added a bit more to Amarien and Kaureiu, expect another bonder or two. I have too many plotlines I've neglected for too long...

jess d · Post by **jess d** » Wed Apr 19, 2006 10:15 pm

I can be dense sometimes...
I finally realized that Featau's next stage was up! And Tenaso too; he has such a pretty shade of blue.
Question: Since he's not actually bonded to Mercure, will he be growing at a different rate than Featau, since she's going to be catching up to her bond, and he isn't?
