New Quests: Estella

Our May Event is over, but there's one last update to Estella saved up! Estella's Hourly, Daily, and Secret Unique Quests are now available! At long last, you can start winning over the lovely Mrs. Artois. You'll also find her Forum History on her page now.

Please note that it may take up to two hours for the Hourly Quests to show up, and the Daily Quest will become available tomorrow when the Dailies run on the server.

New Premium Items: Summer Kith Theme!

I have exciting news, everyone! While Enheduanna and I have been working very hard on returning her to her previous form, we've made a curious new wonderful discovery. You see, though we are still unable to return her to her old self, we were able to draw out some of those aspects rather literally. From her unwoven body came sand and surf from the Coral Reef, and together they formed the Summer Beach Ball! When given to certain Kith, they can learn a new shape, the Summer stage! So far we've found that it works on the Kith from Hope: Ferrec, Bumblebunnee, Blepper, Pluff, Flipperfun, Lumence, Scalyx, Gemwing, and of course the Hermithog.

New Items: May Recolors!

Hey everyone! This month's re-colors are a bit different than usual so I hope you don't mind the change up. I've gotten some requests for a pretty big overhaul of the Muscle Shirt items to have the feminine tops fully nude like the masculine tops. That's a BIG job that ate up a lot of my time/energy this month, but I did manage to complete it. Some of you might have even seen me updating it earlier today to get ready for the release. Because of this update we are pretty light on other content but I do have at least one very special re-color update for you guys and I didn't even do it.

May Event: Item Exchange

It’s that time again, my dears! Today marks the last of the new features to be released at the Bank of Hope. This Exchange is a pretty new idea for me, so please bear with me while we work out the details. An Exchange is a trade of items for other items, sort of like you do when Questing. Right now we have the Mixed Tattertint available so you don’t have to go searching for any Shady Character in a dark alley somewhere to get your premium colors! And a good thing, too; I don’t like the idea of any poor soul feeling forced to interact with a stranger if they really don’t want to…

So, what other Exchanges would you be interested in? Please keep in mind that currently, an Exchange cannot include an “or”, only an “and”, meaning you can request “Raisins and Raisins and Raisins for Infinite Raisins Recipe” but not “Raisins or Golden Raisins for Infinite Raisins Recipe”. We’ll be listening to your suggestions and brainstorming what additions to include in future bank updates! I myself have been thinking over what Quests of my own to offer. Hmm…!

Site Contest Winners: May 2018

Well! Our contest entries for this month certainly deserve a big round of applause for their fantastic efforts! Let’s hear it for Kochab, Moth King of Moths, Runery, EonArisen, Sonamae, and Dread! And thank you so much for tagging me in your entries!! It was truly a delight to see what you all created.

By an impressive number of Cheers, our winners are: Cooking with Ko by Kochab in the Craft category and My Kids First by Sonamae in the Writing category. Congratulations! The two of you will each receive the exclusive In the Spotlight Achievement as well as the Spotlight T-Shirt and Spotlight Showcase!

The winners’ threads will by moved to the Archived Contest Winners Forum, while other entries will be moved to the new Past Contest Entries Forum. I took one look at the old practice of moving them into random Showcase Forums and decided that wouldn’t do! Past entries should be a little better organized from now on.
