Sugar Sprites is a new idea I have come up with for a breedable,changing, interest, etc. pet shop. This will also be my first pet shop so bear with me in the beginning, lol.
---
In a forest somewhere near Barton, the Queen of Sugar Sprites loves to disguise her-self as a widowed old lady. She pretends to stay at home all day cooking sugared treats. One day you happen to stray into the forest and meet her. If you are lucky enough she gives you a sampling of her treats! She warns you not to eat it for a couple of days...if you listen, and heed her word, she'll enchant the candy with the spirt of a sugar sprite!

You happen to be taking a walk in just outside of Barton one day, when you see a path you haven't seen before. You decide to hike it to see where it goes, as the trail gets steeper and the path a little less traveled, you worry if perhaps you may be getting lost. Just as you turn to head back you see a small cottage to your right. Then your curiostiy gets the better of you and you go to take a closer look. A home out here? With a closer inspection, you see the keeper of the house has a large fondness for gardens. The rose bushes are wildly growing up the brick walls, beautiful large roses litter the yard in splotches of ruby red, pink, white, and even purple. As you get nearer, you lean in to take a big breath of rose scent, but before you can another small reaches your nose! It's warm, and smells of sweetness.

Chocolate...and cinnamon buns...and cookies too! There were soo many sweet smells you fail to notice your-self walking up to the door and without hesitation you lift your hand as if to knock...

What happens next is up to you! What you say or do determines what kind of candy you get...

Appearance of Stages 4 and 5 Depend on how and if you RP them.

[Images Will Come As The Pets Grow.]

Candy
-A simple piece of your favorite kind of candy...This piece of candy seems to sparkle oddly like it's winking at you very sof often.

Sugar Sprout
-It's been a week since the old woman gave you a piece of candy. Your candy has done something weird! When you thought it was winking at you perhaps you were right. There's a tiny baby face in the candy! It doesn't have much hair...

Suglette
-It's been another week. Your candy has magicly become a little sugar sprite! In place of a little baby head there's a little tiny sugar sprite. It's hair has grown a little more and there are cute chubby fingers. They are afraid of larger animals (but they looove watching fish!), so if you have cats watch out! In this stage you start to develop a stronger bond. This is where you learn that those odd noises you have been hearing in your head- has actually been this little thing trying to lean how to talk. Use your mind to talk back!

Sweet Suglette
- It seems that to grow any more you've had to wait two weeks. It's been worth it though. The little preson grew some wings, and it seems you can communicate with it more accuratly. It's hard to hear their tiny high picthed voices unless they are hovering next to your ear. They float around with an air of teen-like superiourity. Watch out, they act like they know everything...

Sugar Sprites do not take well to other humans at first contact, and they shy away or hide completly. Very few of them are actually curious enough to say hello...and the ones who usually are...well let's just say no one has one like that yet....

Final
-It's been two to three weeks, but your little bon bon is finally fully grown. They glow and thier wings are bigger! They also like to go with you when you leave house- it's like an adventure to these little things! They also have the ablity to flit in and out of sight, don't let it give you a headache. If it gets depressed you better start looking for another sugar sprite. It seems they are egar to go out of the house back to the forest where you first got it, maybe you'll find others there...


Stages of Familiars
Familiars will have two or three stages. If you RP your pet taking care of their familiars they will grow faster. Pet pets will have thier own certs.

Small Candy
-Generally, most familiars are small candies. For example, tic-tacs and m&m's would be considered small. If you still are not sure, usually most familiars come from candies that would normally take about 6 or 7 candies to equal one bite. This stage lasts about a week to two weeks.

-Now if your familiar is a common, and it only has two stages, in the second stage it will be fully grown. Two stage familiars are generally cheaper, and easier to get.

MidStage
-This stage is pretty self explaintory. Takes another week, to a week and a half to mature.

Final Stage
-Your pet is fully grown. If you RPed well, your pet's fourth or fifth stage art will have the pet drawn in, rather than in the inventory.

No Gender Limitations
All children come from the Queen of Sugar Sprites. The Sugar Sprites small bodies lack the reproductive organs nessary to carry a fetus full term. The sprites can still undertake mating rituals, however all requests for children must be taken to the Queen.

What does the Queen do? It's pretty simple really. She takes a lock of hair from each parent, and bakes up a hearty batch of treats! Then she randomly choses a few and enchants them with the will to live.

Filling out the Form
If a pair of sprites wishes to breed they must fill out an application to breed and then await the following reply via Sprite mail. All breeding spites must be level 5, they do not have to be the same type of candy or flavor. Note: You do not decide how many children you will get, it's just to show the queen how many you desire. The Queen will not give you any more children then this number.

The Form
Parents S/Names:
Breeds of Parents:
Flavors of Parents:
Number of Children Desired:

Getting the Letter of Acceptance
Upon recieving the letter, you find that you are given a shopping list aka scavenger hunt. You are also directed to go to the breeding grounds to look for the items to make your children. Also, it says with the items needed you are to send a cheque or money order.

Sending the Money
The Queen has to take time out of her orderly scheduale to help you obtain your sugary delights. Thus she asks for a contrubution. It is up to you to decide how you are going to split the payment.

Currently the amount required for breeding is undecided.

There is a special system involved in all flat sales at Sugar Sprites. It's called Sprite Points (SP.) There are 3 you can earn, and to earn SP you must role play. You get your very first SP with your first or second RP post. Your second SP you get once your companion reaches it's third stage. The third SP you get after your compainon reaches it's final stage and sucessfuly has begun to RP in a breeding thread. A fourth SP point may be attainable, but currently it is undiscovered.

SP Points allow you to participate in certain flat sales. There are tiers or levels that you gain access to with each SP point.

Entry Level X- Anyone with or without SP points may enter. These will be auctions, events, raffles, etc.

Entry Level 0- Any new entering player may attend this flat sale. After you have attained one SP point you may no longer enter these flat sales, however these sales do not occour very often.

Entry Level 1- Any player with one or two SP points may enter. These may be speed or promt sales.

Entry Level 2- Any player with two or higher may enter. These may be speed or promt sales.
