Sigponis-- GROWTHS Page 2505 (Aev, Kara, Jezbel)

[Vees Girl]

Welcome to the Sigponi Shop! Here I'm offering pretty ponies for your signature, journals, or just to look at. These aren't ordinary ponies, folks. They come in any color you or I could imagine, have different hairstyles just like we do, and even sometimes wear jewelry!

Tyerna here is my Sigponi and the shop mascot.

*Note: Male Sigponis have different outlines, but foals are the same for both sexes.

If having one of these beauties appeals to you, read on!

1. The basic rules you see elsewhere: be polite, no trolling/flaming, follow the ToS.

2. Another one you often see elsewhere: no begging, please. Use of the " crying " icon is prohibited when posting, except when talking about things not related to this shop.

3. Do not PM me asking about availability. When Sigponis are available, they will be posted here. Note: If any times are mentioned, they are in Central Standard Time (CST). Eastern is one hour later (CST + 1), Mountain is one hour earlier (CST - 1), Pacific is two hours earlier (CST - 2).

4. Don't post asking to buy unless they are listed as available. How will you know? It will say "Available."

5. I love items, and may accept them as payment, but you must talk with me about it. Don't assume I will accept your item and also be ready to accept that I may value it differently than you do.

6. More may be added if necessary. I hope it won't be. ^_^

Special note: "Vees Girl" is a mule character for "Vahyla." heart

I just may do pet trades... it never hurts to ask. ninja

[Vees Girl]

Flatsales will be held approximately once a month. They will be for foals and can be purchased for a price of 5K (5,000 gold) each. Foals do grow into adult Sigponis, which takes between 7-15 days, depending on a variety of factors. Some foals will grow faster than others.

Flatsales start when this account or "Vahyla" posts the word "GO" in (usually) green font. <3

Next Flatsale: TBA
Time: ???
Theme: Gemstones


To Buy:

Remember, one flatsale per person, unless you are gifting it to someone else. heart

[Vees Girl]

Auctions will be held once a month. Usually they will be for special Sigponis that have their own, unique poses, features, and certificates (commonly refered to as "augments" ) or they will be for a custom-colored Sigponi with your choice of jewelry.

Current Auction: ---
Next Auction: ???

(no sample image as this is for a custom Sigponi)
If bidding goes over 90K, I will be willing to do an augment.

[Vees Girl]

These are "Unlimited" Sigponis. Each one is given out to more than one person, until I decide to put up a new one. They come to you as adults (with Certs, of course), though I show you the foal. Each costs 1.5K.

None Currently...

Special Notes on Unlimiteds:
I do not save each individual unlimited Sigponi! You have a week in which the image will remain on my server for certain, and then I reserve the right to delete that image.

You may buy up to three of each unlimited released, although I'm not sure why you'd want to... xd

All Unlimiteds have the same outline, there is no gender differentiation (except on the cert). They're just like 'Wild' Sigponis that way.

Unlimiteds will not be listed in the regular listing of Sigponis. I will be keeping track, just in a less organized fashion. =p

Buying an Unlimited:
Post that you'd like the current unlimited and give me name and female/male for it.
Send this account a trade for 2,500 gold.
That easy! =D

[Vees Girl]

This is the custom Sigponi section. Here you may have me make you a special Sigponi. Custom colorations, pieces of jewelry, pretty much whatever you've wanted to see brought to life! heart

How much customs costs depends upon how much effort I have to put into creating your Sigponi. I have a chart below, and you may ask (if there are open slots!) about things that aren't listed.

Slots Available:
The thread title will tell you if there are slots available or not.
Please check there. =3

Augment Custom Spot Available?
If there are customs available, it will say on the page where custom rules for this particular round are listed. Of course, if you want to bribe me... xd

Custom Cost Chart

As questions about cost are asked, this will be expanded. Hopefully questions can be answered before they are asked, but one person can't think of everything. heart

Base Price for Custom: 5K
*You choose one body color, one mane/tail/hoof color, and mane type
*You choose which line art you would like me to use. (version 3 pose 1 or 2; pony pose, walking pose, looking behind pose)
*You also may choose eye color

Additional body color(s): +1K each

Additional mane color(s [up to 5]): +1K

Additional hoof color: +500 gold (flat fee, not per hoof)
*You may have one-four of the hooves different colored than the mane/tail color

Additional tail tuft color: +1K

Custom jewelry: depends on complexity

Lineart editing: depends on complexity

Cosplays: Flat fee of 30K.
You provide me with a reference image, which lines you would like me to use, and I go from there.

Augment Custom Cost Chart

Augments are the Sigponis with unique lineart often auctioned off once a month. However, I know that there are gonna be ones people want that I don't think of... and that's where this section comes in. For a price, a rather steep one, you can skip the whole auction and waiting, and get yourself an augmented Sigponi.

I'm not sure how often I'll offer them, and prices are subject to change. But here's how it stands right now:

100K, base price.
*You choose an animal and I run with the idea.
*It can't be one already done.

200K
*You choose almost everything along the way
-I okay pose with you
-I okay base coloration with you
-I ask what sort of cert background you'd like to see.
-I okay the background I've created and then pull everything together.

Be forewarned that'll be a lot of PMing back and forth. 3nodding

Due to a lack of interest in general, the Jewelry section is mostly closed.

You may still order custom jewelry, there may still be accessories given out around events... but beyond that, this section is obsolete. =P

[Vees Girl]

Hello and welcome to the Pohtion Corner. I'm the shop keep, Poh. Vahyla rescued me from the Labs, just like many of the Sigponis you find in the shop. I was an experiment; they call me a 'Scimagi.' I've taken my expertise and created elixers that, when imbibed, have a reaction with the base genetic level of the creature taking them.

Obviously, use them with caution!

At this point, we have four basic types:
Coloration, Elemental Affinity, Modification, and Fertility elixers.

Coloration come in three types currently:
Add color, add pattern, mane/tail gradient

Elemental Affinity elixers come in five types:
Fire, Air, Earth, Water, and Ice

Modification elixers come in four types:
Add horns, change limbs, change tail, add wings

And Fertility elixers add an additional foal to breedings for up to four offspring from any breeding.

It is interesting to note that potions taken by a pregnant mare will affect her offspring instead of herself. No one is sure why this takes place, but we're guessing it has something to do with hormones.

Usually, however, elixers change the Poni that drank it directly and often in a very quick fashion- sometimes even overnight!

Availability varies with my access to ingredients. Some are very difficult to come by and you might have to quest for them if you wish me to make a particular elixer. Others are quite common and almost always in stock.

Now, I'm sure you'd like to see my products...

How do I get a potion/elixer?
Reply to the thread that you are claiming a potion with the correct form and send a trade to this account. This way if Vahyla is not online at the present moment, others know a potion has already been claimed.

How many potions/elixers may I claim?
You may claim 1 potion every 24 hours as long as potions are available to claim, but you may not claim multiples of any type per "round" of availabilities. So if you purchase a fertility elixer and there is still another available, you may not purchase a second, but you may purchase another type after 24 hours has passed.

I got an elixer from Achievements, how does that work?
When you complete an achievement/quest, Poh makes the corresponding elixer on demand. You may ask Vahyla to add it to stock for you via PM or also contact her about using it.

How do potions/elixers work?
You purchase it and then have a Poni drink it. If the Poni is male or not currently pregnant, then it changes that Poni. If the Poni is a pregnant mare, the future offspring are changed. Hormones do all sorts of crazy things! ~_^

How long do they take to work?
Depending on the type, it could work overnight, or it could take longer to see a full effect.

I have another question...
Feel free to ask me, I promise not to bite or laugh. =)

If yes, please continue. If no, it will be added to your stock/inventory.

Desired Result: (aka, if you are claiming an 'add horns' elixer, what type of horns are you expecting it to produce? Note that modifying genetics is not an exact science, but Poh can usually come very close to what you're expecting)

What happens with the foalies?
With one owner and one foal, the outcome is semi-obvious. whee
Of course, if you decide you don't want the foal, I will be willing to put it up for sale. You would receive up to 50% of the profit from that sale. 3nodding The same goes for multiple foals, you may sell or keep them. Just be sure to talk with me. ^_^

With two owners, things get a bit more complicated. I hate to use the term, but the owner of the more "special" Sigponi chooses first. Ranking goes like this (lowest to highest):
Unlimited, Flatsale, Wild/Breeding, Semi-Custom/Custom, Custom with lineart edits/Special Breeding, Augment
If two of the same rank are breeding, both owners post in the thread and generate a random number 1-100. The owner with the larger number gets to choose foals first. In the case of a tie, both will roll again. xd (if there's -another- tie, you get another foal and try again)

How do I apply for a breeding?
First check if there are breedings available, and of the type you want. Then, fill out the below form. In the case of two different owners breeding, both must fill out the form. This is so I -know- you both consent to the breeding. It would also be a good idea to generate that random number 1-100 at the same time. whee

Type of Breeding: (special or regular)
Sigponi's Name:
Sigponi's Number:
Sigponi's Type: (Flatsale, Breeding, Semi-Custom/Custom, Custom w/edits/Special Breeding, Augment)
Favorite thing about your Sigponi:
Pairing With: (other sigponi's name)
Don't forget to generate a number 1-100, if you're breeding with someone else's Sigponi!

(Fill this form out once for each Sigponi-- that means twice if you're breeding two of your own!)

Once I confirm your application(s), trades may be sent. In the case of two owners, you may choose to split the amount -or- one of you pays. It's up to you... but if this results in fighting a half/half policy will be set. @_@

After I receive the trade, I will go to the handy-dandy Foal Generation application that LessaLynn was so kind to program for me. <3 And then I create your foal(s).

What if I want a special breeding and the other person wants a regular?
Sorry, it's not allowed. For the special breedings to take place, BOTH Sigponis may only breed once. If one has bred before, it can't take place in a special breeding and afterwards it can't breed again.

Are there breedings available?
I put this last for a reason. xd I do hope you read the information you needed to get to this point....

Breeding Spots:
Check thread title for availability

[Vees Girl]

Flitters:
Little (usually) feather-winged amphitere-like creatures who often congregate around Sigponis. Any given Poni can have up to four of them (flutters count towards this total).


Flutters:
Interesting butterfly-like creatures that are much like flitters. Any given Poni can have a max of three (note flitter total).

Other Familiars:

Flappers:
Bird-like creatures who alert Sigponis to trouble. Given out mainly during Christmas season.

Bobbles:
Egg-like birds who bless their counterparts with fertility. Given out mainly during Easter.

Tweeks:
Bat-like creatures given out mainly during Halloween.

Plushies:
Often given out to celebrate birthdays, there are rumors they can sometimes become real, live Sigponis. This hasn't been proven yet... but hints have been floating around as to how it might go about happening.

Step One: Give your plushie a name. At least one of the plushies in your care must be gifted to one of your sigponis as a "toy."
Step Two: Some sort of roleplaying. . .
Step Three: Plushies have to be brought to a certain place of water within Gaia and be baptised. The Goddess must be present.
Note: The one plushie that you gift to a sigponi can never come to life, so chose carefully.
(Info about Plushies written by LessaLynn)

[Vees Girl]

Occasionally, the thread takes an actual form and gives back to the customers. It's a rather random occurance, and no one is exactly sure how it happens, but role playing and cookies seem to be involved... xd

Also! The WSTT, located in the Guild, is meant to be a sort of "good owners/customers" thing. Go check it out. heart
