This market is not like any other market you'll see. In this market, fiss are being sold. I came up with this idea a long time ago, just not with the same name. I was to lazy to execute this plan before, but now here it is in front of your very eyes.

It is an interactive pet keeping system like no other. You can feed it, give it toys, and watch it grow. This is a very special pet that takes a lot of time and care to make. Each person gets their own fiss, that means I have to make seperate images for everyone.

Please be sure to visit my
bakery.

A long, long time ago, in a far away unknown land lived a young girl. It was raining, and as her parents where about to leave for grocery shopping, the girl reminded them that she wanted to stop by the pet store afterwards. The young girl was their only daughter, and so, they agreed to let her go after they finished shopping.

The family of three headed towards their van with umbrellas. They got in, and they felt the rain pouring against the window as the car took off onto the road. The young girl gazed outside of the window as she saw the pet shop pass by. Being a very well behaved girl, she didn't whine that she wanted to go there first. They reached the grocery store and as they got off, the mom bought her daughter an ice cold Orange Soda from a vending machine near by. The family headed in and got out their shopping list. The young girl helped bring all the items in the cart so there would be less time shopping for groceries and more time shopping for pets. It was already 8:00PM by the time they finished grocery shopping, so as the dad handed the cashier his credit card, he told his daughter that they can't go that day because it's already past time for dinner and they didn't even cook it yet. The girl frowned but agreed.

Outside, her parents got into an argument of what to make for dinner and the young girl felt as though she had stress so she jumped into a mud puddle to release her anger. It worked, although her clothes got muddy and she got yelled at. In the car on the way home, she wiped the frost off the window and saw the pet store once again. She started silently crying. When they reached home, she felt better so she asked her mom what is going to be cooked for dinner. This stirred up the argument again. The dad wanted to have chicken-pot-pie for dinner but the mom wanted to have lasagna. They both asked the daughter what she wanted and she said Maljerone. (Note: Maljerone is pronounced "mal-jher-own" and it is a special dish found in the land of theirs that is made with spaghetti, ground peaches and olives, plus a maple syrup type sauce that goes with it.) Her parents sighed and nodded as they both love Maljerone. This silenced them both for the rest of the day.

They all went inside and carried the groceries in. She looked through one of the bags and saw her favorite cereal in it, Shittios. This cheered her up. It's made with dried pickles and dark chocolate shavings plus corn for the added effect. She quickly opened the box to get the tattoo from inside. She was collecting them. Her mom snatched the box from her and yelled at her. She said "Don't you know these Shittios are your dad's favorite cereal?!" She burst into tears and ran up to her room. She sat inside and cried for a while. Then she turned on the channel and saw a comercial for Shittios. She burst into tears once again. She couldn't take it any longer. She grabbed her piggy bank and quickly wrote a note that said that she'll be running away due to the lack of care her parents give her everyday and that they dont even notice how hard she tries to be good and behaved. She tied a rope to her windowsil and escaped from there.

She ran to the park that she grew up playing at. It was 10AM and she gathered a bunch of leaves to make a good pillow. She layed down underneath picnic table and fell asleep. The next day, she walked to the pet store and bought two fish, one female and one male. Along with that, she bought a few Chocolate Bars and a bunch of Chocolate Nuggets to servive on for the rest of the time she'd be away from home. All her money was spent. She kept the two fish inside the plastic bag that they came in and tore a small hole in it to feed them with. They where in separate bags.

For the next six weeks, she lived this way in the park. Her parents where furious at first, but then they came to their senses and promised they'd never fight with eachother again. They sent police out to search for their beloved daughter, but they had to live without her for six weeks. In that time, they had bought her a fish and took care of it for her until the time they found her.

When they finally found her, the family burst into tears looking at her face covered in chocolate, dirty clothes, and uncombed hair, but most of all, her. They all promised they'd never fight again. They all headed home and fogave eachother for what they had done. The girl forgot her fish under the picnic table where she'd dug a hole and let the fish in there. The fish bags tilted and all the water, plus the fish fell in the hole. The fish soon mated and had many babies. The dirt and healthy minerals allowed the fish to get out of the muddy water and survive on land. The fish spread out and for many generations have been in the far away land. Sumra went to the far away land and caught two, one female, and one male. She bred them into what are now called fiss that are available for you today at the one and only Fiss Market.

There are nine four stages of fiss, that means it'll take nine four days for your pet to be fully grown.

To make your fiss happy, you should buy it toys.

Healthy foods are good for it's health, but won't affect it's mood. It's recommended that you feed your fiss unhealthy food only once in a while; there should be a balance of healthy and unhealthy food in it's diet.

It will get angry if you feed it only healthy foods, or if you make your pet get ill.

For illness, fiss should go directly to the hospital to see which medicine will cure it's illness. If the illness is too severe for any medicine to cure it, then it has to be taken to the Emergency Room for immidiate surgery.

You will see the food, toys, and hospital ahead in the market.

A small preview is here:

User Image


The price for one egg is 400 gold.
To buy a fully grown fiss, it is 800 gold.

IMPORTANT!: When you send the trade, be sure to include what your fiss's name will be in the title of the trade.

The one that you will recieve will have your name on it, your fiss's name on it, and a border around it to keep your fiss save from any harmful things on the outside world of Gaia. It will also be animated.

During these nine four days, the owner and the fiss will most likely grow a strong bond with eachother. At the ninth fourth day, you'll get to have it detatched from the market and to keep for your own self.

Frequently asked questions on fiss and the market.

Q: Why are these so expensive?
A: I already told you, it's because I have to make it grow for nine days.

Q: What happens if I don't give my fiss medicine when it's sick?
A: It'll die, obviously. On the customers list, next to your name we'll write that you killed your fiss, murderer.

Q: What if I can't afford to pay the hospital bill?
A: You must have proof that you can't afford it. It's your own fault that you took poor care of your fiss that it got sick.

Q: How many times do I feed my fiss each day?
A: You must feed it once a day. If you forget, it'll let you know. It will get thristy, too.

Q: When do I purchase all of the food?
A: Read the descriptions underneath the foods. When it's an egg, you can buy bottled milk for when it hatches. A day after it hatches, you can feed it mashed foods. After that, feed it anything it likes.

Q: It's too hard to take care of my fiss, can I abandon it and get a refund?
A: Well, you can abandon it, but you won't get your money back. If you're going to abandon it, let me know first.

Q: Why isn't this thread in the Breedables forum?
A: Because it's a market. Haha.




If you have any questions, feel free to post them here. After that, I'll answer them and post them on this FAQ part of the market.

Oh, I see how it is. You made your pet sick, DIDN'T YOU?

No worries. All you need to do is purchase the right medicine to cure the illness.



Medicine is listed below.

User Image


1: Pain Killer (60G)
If your pet is experiencing any pain from a broken tooth, this very bitter tasting medicine will cure it, but it'll make your fiss a little angry.

2: Acne Ointment (60G)
Tired of seeing your fiss covered in zits? Put some of this on and they'll go right away.

3: Pills (50G)
A hard to swallow pill that is very disgusting yet it works wonders on sore throats. Feed this to your fiss. Young fiss can't swallow these, so be sure to not make them ill.




Remember, the more you delay giving your pet medicine when it's ill, the quicker it'll take to be severely ill.

If your pet's illness is extremely ill, bring it here. We'll take it to our special emergency room for surgery.

Going to the ER for surgery will cost you 500 gold. We told you to take diligent care of your fiss.
