All bulletin images have been fixed i believe! Thank you guys so much for being patient! <3 

No exciting news from me besides that, if you find a image on a bulletin broken please lmk! ^^ 

- Mod Aya

Just a quick update from Aya, Discord has recently updated their imaging hosting services leaving alot of links using discord images are broken. I am currently working on fixing this as well as popping is at least once a week to do mod work. I do not get notifications from comments on bulletins. I do allow members to ping me for quicker modwork processing. 

On that note too! i would like to remind everyone that if you wish to leave OR your user has been changed to please let staff know so we can update your inventories. 

Here is also a reminder that we do have a discord where you can do most if not all the things you do here on it.

Any worries and concerns on this update can be commented below and ill try my best to answer. 

- Mod Aya!

Sitting in the lush greenery beside the oasis pond, you tiredly dip your hand into the water, and as you feel it course between your fingers, the heat of the desert seems to ease somewhat. You turn towards a lone fisherman, who appears to be quite absorbed in what he's doing. At least, until he notices you.

 "Aye - Did you come to fish, too?" 

Despite not really planning on it, you answer yes regardless.

"Well, you're not going to get very far without a fishin' rod. I can lend you one of mine, if you want." He says, yawning, as he hands you a fishing rod. Only for a Zorua to fetch you a bug to use as bait! 

"Oh, how convenient. Just proves it's better to spend your time making friends than enemies, I suppose..." He said, before turning back to the pond. "We're gonna be here for a while, the critters are kind of timid. Y'wanna hear a story to pass the time?" He'd ask. 

One again, you agree as you stick the small bug through the line and cast it into the water...

[Once you start the game, you can reply here to start fishing! You will start with an Old Fishing Rod... but due to wear and tear it will only last up to 10 reels ... after that you'll have to partake in the Fishing Quest to receive a new one that won't break!]

Your first reel is free ... how fun!

WELCOME TO THE UNBOUND OASIS !

A Zorua based ARPG inspired by Eeveeporium and Vulpix Isles!

Joining is simple! Request a membership to hop right into the fun!

To get started and play the game, you will need a Toyhouse!

Claim a starter to officially get your inventory set up!

[You don't have to use the starter later on, but it is needed to be able to set up your inventory!]

Starters are free of charge! You may only pick one variant to start off!

Unova Zorua

Cream Zorua

Ebony Zorua

Cream and Ebony have new appearances when they evolve compared to their Unova one... and carry on their color scheme up to their evolution, Zoroark!

Can't decide? Or perhaps ... you wish to try your odds? Choosing an egg instead will roll either of the 3 variants, or potentially a shiny, albino, or melanstic Zorua!

How odd..? The egg should be red? Must be your eyes messing with you ... hmm ...

To claim your starter, simply comment the variant of choice + a given name for your starter, if any. 

(Unnamed starters will remain as 'Zorua')

If wanting to claim an egg instead, simply comment "Roll against the odds!" (alongside a name, if any)

To add on, once you claim a starter, some Multicolored Fur Dye  will be added to your inventory!

(This special dye set allows up to 3 markings/patterns for your Zorua!)

Once that is set up, you can start working on your starter!

Struggling on what to do after this? Visit the help page, or ask around for help on our Discord !!

Have fun here in the Oasis!

- Write up to 350 words or more of a battle scene between your chosen Zorua and one of the Totems
