Pet System

Acquiring Pets

Collected in a variety of ways, pets are given as a numbered linework file that acts a lot like a MYO ticket. It’s up to you to color it to your liking; there’s very little restriction on coloration and markings for the most part, so feel free to make something that you’ll enjoy! You’re also welcome to make small alterations to the lines to add accessories, scars, and little personal touches. You may bond a maximum of three pets with each mirn character. These will be recorded in the masterlist along with your mirn, so choose carefully-- at present there’s no way to unbond a pet without giving it up entirely! You have two weeks after receiving the lines to decide who you want them to be bound to, giving you a little time to think.

Experience

Pets can gain experience in a number of ways to help them grow and transition into new forms. The best way to encourage their growth is to interact with them and strengthen the bonds between mirn and pet. Drawing and writing that features either the pet or the mirn and pet together will grant a point of experience per day; the complexity of the work doesn’t matter, though of course more polished pieces are eligible for more glim! Additionally, for those who are pressed for time but still want to speed up the process, the Wanderer sells treats that also grant one experience point per day. If you’re going to be pushing experience through art or writing, be sure you’re submitting your pieces via the glim form in order for them to be properly recorded for experience! We also recommend keeping a personal updated journal or a thread on the Toyhou.se World forums for easy tracking.

Evolution

Upon gaining enough experience, you can take your pet to the temple for Solette to help accelerate their growth cycle into a new form. Five experience points are required to progress from pet to companion, and ten more points on top of that are required to get from companion to mount, meaning you need 15 experience points total to fully evolve a pet. However, it’s no worries if you decide you’d rather keep them at a more manageable size; form progression is completely voluntary and you don’t have to advance them if you prefer how they look now. If you’ve evolved them and decide after the fact that you liked things better the way they were, you can always roll back to any earlier form with no penalties or cost to you! At their first stage, pets are mostly small, cute, and provide little quality of life perks. At their second stage, they become more useful as companions, able to assist in various tasks. At their third stage, they are large enough to be ridden as mounts!

Non-Mirn Ownership

While some pets can only thrive within the Great Basin, some pets are available to be transported to foreign worlds where they can be bonded with your other, non-mirn characters or live on their own. Nobody’s quite sure how the Wanderer arranges this, but he doesn’t accept glim in trade for it. If you’re interested in a pet for a non-mirn character of yours, or to have one as a distinct character of its own, lines can be bought for RLC. These are considered non-canon and exempt from species lore. You may buy any stage of any pets currently unlocked, but will not be able to evolve the pet for further lines. These lines are single personal use only and may NOT be used as lines for base adopts. The resulting pet may not be sold except as add-on art to an associated character.

• Pet or Companion forms: $10
• Mount forms: $15

Not much is known about this strange mirn who seems to spend as much time delving the wilds of the Great Basin as he does in civilization. Whoever he is, he’s known for bringing back all sorts of new and unknown creatures from the depths of the forest. Solette unofficially sanctions his trade since the creatures he ‘sells’ seem to be quite content with his selection of owners. While he’s content to offer up the various critters that live in his shop for glim, it’s said that he can get you just about anything for a price. Since his interest in glim seeds is lukewarm at best, however, nobody’s quite sure what that price might be.
