It's February! That means its Puppillars' anniversary!

It's been five whole years since I started puppillars, we've gone through so much changes and growth, I'm so happy to see the group still going and going strong! Whether you are a brand new member, or have been here the whole time, I'm happy you are enjoying the group!

Milestones from the past year

Our biggest milestones from this year were related to our first ever plot! The plot had Five Steps with activities both big and small, and also added a lot of lore to our world, including our new World Map! Through the plot we also met our third species on puppillars, Arcane Fauna! There will still be lore updates from this plot to come, look forward to more info on magic, and more info on the new locations on the map!

Besides the lore features, we also added some awesome new features this year, including our newest feature, The Fishing Hole,  a brand new Holiday Shop, the brand new Transformation Magic, and a new Adenturing area, Plateau Lake!

Along with the plot, we also were able to have some fun events last year, including our first ever Fundraiser, where we raised $375 for LGBT organizations in the US, Brazil, and Slovakia! We also had our first ever MYO Event, which was also a crossover event with our friends at World of Lingua! Besides all that, we even managed to squeeze in a few other things like Snailcat Racing and an XTA Contest!

There are now 140 members on our site! That's more than 50 new members this year! 

There are now 399 Puppillars, 120 snailcats, and 43 Arcane Fauna on our site!

There are 806 items on our site, and 59 awards!

 

Yipee!! Let's celebrate

To celebrate our 5th Birthday, we have a new award for members to collect, we are  having a Customs Raffle, and also made some adopts for the Wanderer's Glade!

We have alot of fun stuff planned for the rest of the year, we want to release more items and awards, as well as work on new dailies and a new adventuring area!

This month, we are having an Art and Design exchange, as hightly requested by our members in our 2023 Survey. We will be posting the details on the exchange later today! Coming up next in March we will have the return of the Snailcat Racing Holiday!

I absolutely adore this group and it's amazing to see it grow! A positive event for me has been the introduction of the Arcane Fauna and all the stunning characters that have come from their introduction c:
