Welcome to Gaia! ::

These are basically the same bipedal sheep monster, but Shmoolies are a lot more aggressive and take a little more effort to tame. Both monsters produce wool, but Shoomlies make good guard dogs for the rest of your livestock as well.

These are the cows of the monster world. Buffamoos are the females of the species and look basically like dairy cows with a more square head and fangs. She produces really rich milk that has a taste similar to buttermilk. The Buffaloos are the males and look like a larger, green version of the female. They produce leather for clothes and horns for crafty residents of New Eden.

These are troublesome rodents that eat crops and generally make pests of themselves. Chipsqueeks are red chipmunk-like creatures and Furpies are yellow ones and a little less common. Both produce valuable fur that can be woven into yarn or simply sold raw.

These creatures only come out at night, but are a common sight if you happen to enjoy evening walks. They are bipedal creatures that look like a cross between a black cat and a gargoyle. Wild one's sometimes sneak into henhouses at night and eat chickens, but when tamed they are the best livestock guard you could possibly hope for, as long as you provide plenty of fresh meat or cat food for them.They'll also need a den of sorts to go inside during the points in the day when the sun is highest, but even resting they are always alert. They also shed their claws weekly which can be sold for a high price. There is a red version of these creatures, but they are only found deep in volcanoes, so it is unlikely any settlers will run into them.

These are the chickens of the monster world and basically look like normal roosters, only stronger. They also produce richer eggs than regular chickens and are made of leaner meat. Wild ones can be a problem for crops,but they are defeated and tamed quite easily. It is also believed that in the wild they live together in large nest led by giant Cluckadoodles nicknamed Mamadoodles which can be tamed as well, but it takes a lot of work.

These are quite aggressive and quite poisonous monsters, so tread carefully if you wish to tame to these creatures, especially the Queen and King varieties. If you manage to tame one they produce honey. Their venom can be used to produce antidotes and other medicines.

Turtle-like aquatic monsters that are really only useful after they are sent back to The Forest of Beginnings as they leave behind their shell which can be changed into armor, weapons or simply sold for a high price. They have a bigger cousin called the Fortoise who offers the same thing, but is significantly rarer.

A Duck is a round, flightless bird with black and yellow feathers. They also produce eggs, but not near as often as Cluckadoodles. They do shed their feathers often though and they can be woven into clothing or sold for a hefty sum. Emperor Penguins are the same, but blue& white and are only available during winter. Their feathers are thicker than a Duck's and make great blanket lining.

This are tiny winged humanoids the size of Harvest Sprites and generally serve the same purpose .They bless human crops and come in a variety of colors and elemental abilities. Taming any of them takes patience and they should be treated as partners not pets. If you befriend one they'll produce fairy dust every other day that can be used in item crafting or simply to sell raw.

A tribe of them live in the forest and they have about the same level of intelligence as fey, only they use weapons instead of magic and are far more aggressive. Befriending them is possible, but they are never 100% tamed and more than a few have turned on their human companions. When they return to the Forest of Beginnings they always leave behind a piece of the weapons they were using.

These beasts look like mini grim reapers and are exclusively nocturnal. They are hard to tame , but if you befriend them you have have a friend for life who loves battling alongside their companion . When defeated they leave behind either their hood or crystallized dark magic. Both can be used in crafting weapons.

These creatures are infamous chicken thieves and tamable, but unlike panthers they never lose the habit,so having one on a farm isn't the best idea. When defeated they leave behind either shed claws or fur. Both of which can be used in crafting or sold raw.

These are sleek, vicious pack animals that mostly stick to themselves and the game they find in the forests they live in,but hungry wolves will eat livestock . When tamed they basically become a dog with really sharp claws and teeth. They shed both their fur and fangs and come in a variety of colors. The most common are the Silver Wolves.

1Woolie Festival: During this time of year the Woolie population explodes, but because their so useful to beings of all types they're honored. People often leave out corn to feed the wild Woolies and Woolie shows are held. A lot of stores have wool sales. The main event though, is the Woolie sheering contest. Contestants take their Woolie (or tame a wild one to bring) and a contest is hosted to see who can sheer theirs the fastest (without harming the monster of course). Winner get's a baby Woolie of their very own.

11-Firefly Festival: Besides the great food and carnival games that are available all day, the highlight of the night is the firefly catching contest. It's mostly a sport for kids, but some adults who are young at heart participate as well. The winner get's a year's supply of Buffamoo Milk.

15-Sunflower Festival: As a symbol of summer, Sunflowers are of course honored during this season. Young Lovers often give each other Sunflowers or some other related food, like Sunflower seeds. This year the settlers might find something particularly special, a huge field of the flowers across the river. It will only bloom in the summer and settlers aren't supposed to know it exists until we reach this festival.

21- Summer Solstice- Today settlers celebrate the longest day of the year with a huge banquet. All settlers bring a dish to the center of town and share it with their fellow New Edenites. There's also a beautiful and romantic fireworks show at the end of the night.

30-Harvest Festival Farmers and ranchers bring your best crop to the center of town where it will be judged. After the contest is done there's also a cooking contest that non-farmers can participate in using the fresh vegetables. At the end of the night the dishes are enjoyed by everyone in town.

11- Dance Festival: This is time of many performances as dancers, or even New Edenites with dancing talents perform to make sure the new year is a healthy one for the year's crops. There is also a Sewing and quilting contest for those who wish to participate in that.

15-Mayday : This is basically a springtime Valentines Day, as Mayday is a time for lovers and love interests are encouraged to exchange gifts with their significant other, or confess to someone you have feelings for. There is an old superstition that any couple that get's married on Mayday will be blessed with many children. Lastly, there's a "Livestock show" during this time as well, but it's more like an opportunity to network with fellow animal/monster raisers who wish to breed their livestock to yours.

20 Spring Equinox and Nathanial Dawson's birthday A Celebration of another time when day and night are even. Food sellers abound and foreigners are encouraged to stop by and show off their wares, although they can do so anytime of year. There are the usual carnival games, including a kissing booth. Contests are common during this celebration as well, although the types of contests change every year. One contest that shows up a lot is an artistic gardening contest.
