Astrolytes 5th Anniversary!

Welcome to the 5th Anniversary of Astrolytes!

Five years… that’s a lot! It’s hard to express how surreal it is saying today marks the fifth year we’ve been running. It’s been a long journey so far, and we still have a ways to go, but we can’t wait to see how the group evolves in future years. As always, we are immensely grateful for everyone who has joined us and stuck along for any part of the ride, be it from the very start five years ago, or in the last few months. It really is so rewarding just to see so many people drawing their lytes and interacting with one another, even when we fall behind with events or prompts. No matter what happens, we have so many ideas planned that we are aiming to finish in the future, and we hope all of you will be there with us as we progress!

You may apply this ferrosome to one lyte of your choosing! This ferrosome can alter their eye color to any new color aside from pure white or black! For those with Heterochromia, Eye Color Tweaker can change one or both of their eye colors!
