Posting some cool new stuff I just thought up. XD This is something we've always been planning, but it was just typed now. It's also the lesser-cool of the two updates.

Everyday Is Halloween!

Numas were beyond ecstatic when they discovered the human concept of Halloween. Beside the obvious excitement caused by the holiday's use of candy, they were intrigued by the concept of dressing in costume. Thus, they have not only adopted Halloween as one of their own holidays, but they have also begun dressing up, randomly, on a regular basis! Some Numas will merely wear costume (perhaps Halloween-themed, perhaps anime-character-themed), while others become a bit obsessed and style their hair, dye their fur, and even wear contacts so that they mimic the character entirely. (These Numas are of a rare, special "cosplay" group that each have their own unique lineart.)

Okay, here's the cooler new feature. This one is brand new. XD Inspired as I typed up the Halloween info.

Um, it's not proof read yet though, so pardon any typos! D: [Going to look over it now.]

Yearly Calendar

Numas enjoy having a reason to celebrate and party just as much as humans, so below is a list of all the major holidays celebrated throughout Numa Numa Land. It's a good thing that Numas almost always invite their friends to the parties, because it'd be a shame to miss any of these!

January 2 - Numa New Year The first day of the new year is celebrated with bubbling grape soda, noise-making toys and parties that go 'till morning!
February 14 - Candy Exchange Day - On this day, Numas exchange special love-themed candies to friends, family, and especially current (or future) significant others.
March 5 - Gumdrop Festival Numa legend tells a story of two Numa lovers who got separated while trekking through the nearly-impassable Gumdrop Mountains, never to see each other again. This is in honor of that legend. In Japanese style, they dress up and visit temporarily-erected stalls to play games, sample foods and generally have a good time. It's especially popular for couples!
April 16 - Chocolate-Shaped Bunny Day Numas noticed how humans seem to devour bunny-shaped chocolates on this day, so even though they didn't understand why, they decided to take up the tradition!
April 31 - ANOTHER HALLOWEEN!! - Who wants to wait a whole year for Halloween?? Not the Numas! So they made another one to be celebrated exactly six months after the "original" one.
June 18 - Willy's Birthday! Everyone loves Numa Numa Land's mayor, Willy! So on his birthday, the whole town throws a giant birthday bash!
July 1~8 - Lollypop Festival Numas have to fuel their economy somehow, and they do this by harvesting lollypops. The first week of July is the best time to do it, so they've made a tradition of holding a festival throughout the entire week they harvest.
August 21 - Foundation Day This is the day Numa Numa Land was founded. Numas hold a giant, town-wide barbeque on this day, and set off fireworks once night falls.
October 31 - HALLOWEEN!!!! Dressing up and candy. What WOULDN'T make this the best holiday of the year?!
November 25 - The Big Feast November is when the profit from the lollypop harvest begins to filter in, so to celebrate their good fortune, they hold a giant feast ... but they don't eat until after saying thanks!
December 24 & 25 - Days of Giving A day for Numas to promote generosity. Gifts are exchanged on this day, Numa-to-Numa, Numa-to-friend, and Friend-to-Numa.



Basically, I wanted a specific reason to hold a big event roughly every month. I thought this would be a cute way to go about it. Feedback would be amazing... [Looks around hopefully?] heart

Not overworking myself is TOP priority. All of these holidays are tenative. At the least, they'll be avaliable for a roleplay base (in case we get people interested in roleplaying), but at best they'll be full-blown thread-wide events, with games, contests, rare items, and new Numas. It'll probably vary from month to month-- some holidays are noted there as being much more important (Halloween and Willy's Birthday, for example), some are more because they're popular among all Breedables shops (Valentine's, Christmas, Easter), and some will be much more low-key. I'll try to do SOMETHING cool for each, but I won't burn myself out. I even purpously left out two months to give myself a break, and left several-weeks gapes before the holidays that will probably take the most preparation. So no worries, it's being well thought out. n.n
