General Rules</center>
1. EVERYONE MUST READ THE ENTIRE FIRST PAGE BEFORE TRYING TO GET A GRYPHON OR BEFORE POSTING. Don't ask questions that are already answered on the FAQ or anywhere else on the first page.
2. No whining, fighting, flaming, begging, or otherwise causing any sort of negative feelings in the thread. PLEASE take it to PMs or another thread. We don't want unnecessary fights or quarrels in our thread,. (However, play fighting is allowed)
3. Please don't PM me. If you have any questions, post in the thread and I'll get to you when I can. I'll try read every post and if I don't respond, just post it again.. Also, please read the first page before asking a question. Chances are, the answer's already there. If you do PM me with something that's already in the thread, I'll simply point to you the shop, SO DON'T PM ME!!
4. You're not permitted to take or modify Thalion's artwork, design, or anything without permission. You steal anything from us and you will be black listed for life! Owners however, are allowed to crop out the faces for signatures.
5. If a gryphon is not in the auction/ flatsale/event post then it is NOT FOR SALE! Self-explanatory.
6. Please keep cursing to a minimum, and things in general at a PG-13 level (as is already in the general rules of Gaia). I don't want anyone harassing anyone else here, or causing trouble.
7. Do not argue with any of the staff, if there is a problem please contact me and talk civil in the PMs.
8. If, for some reason, you're missing a cert because we didn't make it, don't hesitate to ask! Odds are the only person guilty of not doing certs right away is me, so pester me to do it. XD
9. We do not take bribes. We do, however take pet trades. Yes, there's a difference. XD; Though if you want to earn a gryphon, sign up for a custom.
10. RPing is highly recommended but not required.
11. If you are intending to leave Gaia forever, please let me know whether or not your gryphon may be given to a new owner.
12. Don't grab an gryphon and never return. All we ask is that you come by once a week and tell us that you're still alive. If you don't come and visit for a long period of time, we will have to take away your abandon pet and have some else take care of it because we would have to assume that you don't want it anymore.
13. Conversations are loved and appreciated as they bring up the thread.
14. You can own up to two without RP required. You can have as many as you want as long as you RP at least one of them. If you do not plan to RP at all, you can only have those two.
15. You may NOT, under ANY circumstances re-sell your gryphon! Once you have it, the only way to get rid of it is to either give it back to me, or give it to a friend. You will not receive gold in either of these ways, however.
16. Please don't stretch the thread or have excessive bumps that others have to scroll down. It's not convenient and it's annoying. If your signature stretches the page, turn it off please. Also, don't quote a very long message. Shorten it if you can.
17. If you cannot pay for your gryphon within 24hrs of winning your gryphon, then do not enter the event(s). However, if you do enter and you still can't pay, your prize will go to the one next in line.
18. Be A Good Sport If you've lost a pet in a sale to someone else, please don't whine and complain. It's not nice and it's annoying.
19. All sales goes to Lady_Shinigami.
20. Make an effort to use proper grammar and spelling, please. We don't want to try to figure out what you are saying. sweatdrop
21. Don't use guilt to get a pet. We feel for you and want you to have one but that's not the right way to do it.
22. Do not ask for a gryphon if you can't pay for it.
23. Rules can be changed at any time.

4. Those with grypons are free to participate in flat sales unless specified otherwise.

6. You can only get one gryphon per flatsale, though if you want to get one for a friend as well you can do that.
7. Please post only one selection. Do not post, "I'd like #1 please, or if that's taken then #3, or if that's taken then #4." That's not fair to anyone else.
8. Post either the color or type you want. And please be specific, I do not want to guess which one you want. If I can't figure out what gryphon you picked, I will skip your entry.
9. I will post the rules again right before the flatsale(10 minutes).
10. Please refrain from posting within that ten minutes because it makes others jumpy.
11. All flat sale must contain the phrase "Gryphons who fly high will live long"
12. If you cannot pay for your gryphon within 24hours of winning it, then do not apply.

1. The price is the current month's Sealed Letter.
2. Do not post your entry until a BIG RED LETTERS 'GO' post is posted. A flat sale only starts when this appears in the thread.
3. Once you post your entry, you MAY NOT EDIT. Do not worry about minor typing errors. Mistakes happen. We are more concerned with RP style and structure than every little typo possible.
4. Entries received the same minute as my STOP will be accepted but none after. No exceptions unless gaia is being an absolute pain. Then it is our call if we wish to extend the sale.
5. All flat sale entries must contain the phrase "Gryphons who fly high will live long" somewhere in the post. It can be at the bottom of your entry, at the top, or even in the middle of your entry. It must be there to prove you read the rules.
6. If you cannot pay for your gryphon within 24hours of winning it, then do not apply.
7. Those with gryphons are free to participate in flat sales unless specified otherwise. It is encouraged, however, for current owners to let some new folk get in on the fun of RPing.
8. I will post the rules again right before the flatsale(10 minutes).
9. Please refrain from posting within that ten minutes because it makes others jumpy.
10. After the judging, I will pick the winners by 1st, 2nd, 3rd and 4th place and they will get to pick their gryphon according to the order you won in.
11. You have 24 hours after the 'Go' post to get your entries in.
12. You may only try for a gryphon for yourself. Gifting your gryphon away is not allowed unless it is from a breeding.
13. It's highly recommended to read other RP post in the guild to get a better feel of what you are expected.
14. Please spell-check your entry. It helps on my eyes.

12: Once the auction is over, it's over. End of story.
13: Items are allowed- but letters will be taken mid EVIL price and we ask that you post it's worth along side it when bidding. Please no Mummy Masks, Grass Skirts (of any kind), or things like that. If you simply must bid those, they will be taken at sellback price.

Q: How can I get an gryphon?
A: You can acquire a gryphon through either a flat sale / auction / or a raffle.

Q: Are their any available?
A: If there are none available in the preview or event post(s), then there are none.

Q. I wanna hab one!!111!1!1 Gimme gimme11!1!
A. Uhh...no. I dare you to do that again...and then greylist. stare

Q: When's the next Flatsale?
A: NO CLUE! Please stop asking... gonk

Q: Are you Hiring? I would like to work for you.
A. I'm sorry, but we aren't looking at the moment. I will post in the announcements when or if we do.

Q. If I PM you, will you sneak me one under the table?
A. Um.....no. Sorry, but just like everyone else, you have to tough it out here and prove your metal.

Q. Give me gryphon now. I'm too lazy to read all of this junk!
A. I'm disinclined to capitulate to your request. Means "no". Read, you lazy bum!

Q: I don't like my gryphon, can I trade it in for another one?
A: Nope. You knew the risks before paying for your gryphon and if you didn't, you're a moron who didn't read the rules now who's fault is that?

Q:Is there a limit to the amount of gryphon I can own?
A: Not really. If you plan to RP at least one of them, then there will be no lmit for you. However, if you do not want to RP, then you can only have up to two gryphon total.

Q: How do I breed my gryphon?
A: Breeding is not available at this time. Sorry.

Q: How long does it take for my gryphon to grow up?
A: It can take anywhere from 2 weeks to a month, maybe longer. Do not worry your gryphon will grow up! Thalion might just not have the time in her busy schedule.

Q. My gryphon isn't growing! ;_; Why is that?
A: We are sorry but we do have lives you know. Thalion is coloring as fast as she can and sometimes RL problems get in the way of Gaia life. Please be patient. Besides, this gives you a good chance to bring the gryphon's personality. Most likely, it would take almost a month before it grows.

Q: How much do gryphon cost at a Flatsale?
A: Current Month's Sealed Letter. If you win one at a flatsale you have 24 hours to send me the trade. If you do not send it to me on time you shall lose your gryphon, it will go to the next person unless you have a good reason for your lateness.

Q: Can I get a custom gryphon?
A: Yes you may. Though it will cost 60k for a custom color and a lineart edit is 120k.

Q: That's alot! How am I going to get that much?!
A: You can get it the usual way; either by posting, donating to gaia or voting on the polls. OR you can come by the shop more often and once a month, I will pick someone who was most active in the thread and give them some gold (points really) towards a custom. For more information, look in the 'Mission' post.

Q: Do I have to role-play to own a gryphon? / How active must I be?
A: No, you do not have to role-play; however, this does not mean that you're allowed to purchase a gryphon and hop off never to be seen again. Just talk to us a little/stay alive and you'll be fine. But you will have to RP at least one of them to be able to own more than two at a time.

Q: Do role-players get extra perks?
A: Always. Role-players can have as many gryphon as they want. There's more too, of course-- this is just the start!

Q: How do I get a rank or a class for my gryphon?
A: Well, this is another perk of RPing. ^^ For those who RP or visit the thread often enough will have a choice of what class they want. As for rank, they are different gryphons with different lineart which has to be earned.

Q: What if I don't visit the thread often but every once in a while?
A: We would be glad if you came here more often but it will do. Though you won't be able to pick a class for your gryphon. Either we pick a class for you or you don't get a class and just be a normal gryphon. ^^;


Q. Where do we RP?
A: You, of course, roleplay in the Guild. The link is on the first post. But for casual RPing, you do it here in the main thread.

Q: This is too much for me. Can I sell/trade/give away my gryphon?
A: Talk to me about it first, but most likely I'm going to say yes. You can give away your gryphon at any time for free to a friend or me, but you may NOT re-sell your gryphon. Like I said in the rules, no re-selling at all. You also cannot trade gryphon for another pet. That's just rude.

Q: Can I do fanart?
A: Yes. xd heart *glomps you*

Q: Can you make the event start/end sooner? Please?
A: No, I can not. I might in some cases when everyone interested can't make it to the event. I will try to make everyone happy but I can't please everyone. I'm just one person and Thalion is, also, only one person.

Q: Can you lower the price of the item/flatsale/raffle? They are too expensive!
A: Sorry, I can't, once again. If I feel incline to, then I will but I will not do it just because you ask/beg me to. sweatdrop

There are many graphitic traits that begin to show towards puberty. It's then that the young gryphon is given his or her class to further train and become prominent in. These classes assert their place and function in the tribe and insure that the whole population is benefited from defense to providing of care for basic tasks.

Sky-Dancers:
Young gryphlets who are naturally agile are most likely to become sky-dancers. They must show agility and air maneuverability at an early age that surpasses those of their fellow gryphons. Their functions mainly include performing ceremonial dances at festivals and other special events, but in battle they are particularly useful. Their agility and grace makes for a target that isn't easily hit and it's them that relays messages back and forth, delivers the wounded from danger, and lure foes into traps.

Spell-Weavers:
Basically graphitic mages. Each spell weaver can feel the aura from the sentential and is assigned an element from the elder resting within the sentential. Over the course of their life they train to better understand and use their magic. Gryphons, however, cannot use staffs instead they rely on weaving magical knots to summon their elements. They resemble cat's cradles to dream catches- each knot differs for each element.

Healers:
Gryphons who have a natural ability to treat the wounded go on to learn healing magic and techniques. Though gryphons are not the most capable or healing-magics they are gifted with functional front claws that can serve as hands which help in bandaging, surgery, and what not. There are a few that are gifted with a high sense of white magic.

Care-Takers:
Gryphons who are naturally kind-hearted and understanding towards each other are put in charge of the hatching eyrie and the youngsters there until they are old enough to fend for themselves. They often times will hunt for small game for the gryphlets to eat- later bringing them back alive to give the young ones something to practice on. Often times there will be more female care-takers than males and it's perhaps one of the more common classes in the tribes but also one of the most essential.

Seer:
A very rare trait that is often found among gryphlets with glowing eyes. These are the gryphlets able to see the future or the present elsewhere. They are useful in predicting trouble from other tribes and disasters. However, it's been recorded that only one seer has ever lived at one given time. (The seer will be chosen to be one of the staff members so the plot doesn't get out of hand with their future sight.)

Warriors:
The more courageous and strong of the gryphons become warriors. They train from an early age to learn to fight- using the most of their entire body in battle. They are perhaps the most glorified of the classes as they are the ones to defend the tribe from trouble.

Scholar:
The more studious of the gryphons find an early interest in the history and writings of the tribe. Once selected for their post they study for hours a day to become scholars themselves, historians, song-writers, and map keepers.

Bards:
Gryphons with a passion for music become bards at an early age. Very few instruments are usable by gryphons as they have no lips for winds. Lutes (which are plucked carefully by the rounds of their fingers) and drums make the majority of their instruments. Songs are learned and often sun to accompany the sky dancers at ceremonies and festivals.

No Mature Gryphons Yet. ^^;;
<center>User Image</center>

Rules:

1: NO GOD-MODDING! Everyone wants to be big and bad but unfortunately not everyone can. Keep it reasonable. If we find that you're god modding, we'll warn you once before adding you to the gray list. It is breaking a rule after all.
2: NO DRAMA WHORES! Everyone wants an interesting background but for the love of whomever you happen to pray to (or not) don't make a constant flow of drama. Once in a while, fine? Also- your gryphons will have no traumatic childhood experiences prior to you getting them? unless one of the other eggs was mean to them.
3: NO ONE LINERS! Not everyone is a Nobel Prize winning author but we do ask that you try to put some effort into a post. Beating your head on a keyboard until it makes a sentence is not role-playing. Give us something to respond to or you will be ignored.
4: NO ABBREVIATIONS! This is probably the worst thing that anyone has to read? Anyone that passed the third grade can write out things like "You" (instead of "U" wink , "Are" (instead of "R" wink , "Too", and all those other words you people like to shorten. It?s fine if you talk OCC in dummy but? it's not recommended that you do.
5: Occ must be separated from role-playing actions at all times. If you put your role playing in a quote box marked "Role playing", or your OCC in a quote box marked "OCC" that would probably be the best way to go about things. Brackets work well too. Ex. [Hi Stacy!] or ((Hi Stacy!)) or {Hi Stacy!}. Writing "OCC: blah blah" is fine too. Please don't use action stars ("*" wink for anything but corrections.
6: Don't use the Emoticons in game.
7: As much as you like wild gryphon sex please take it to PM, IM, or E-Mail if you simply MUST play all that out. Keep it clean or have it implied, we don't wanna be stripped from this forum.

'Mission' is to help those without the funds or luck to obtain a gryphon character to get an gryphon character. 10% of whatever we make from the shop from this point on (whether in auctions, flat sale, etc.), and 100% of donations will go to Mission. Every month, I will pick (based on activity in thread or roleplay) one person, and they will get all the funds in the Mission pot at the moment for either a discount on a custom. That person keeps those 'points' they use them, and can keep adding onto them if they wish.

In order to sign up for Mission, just fill out the form below. Please do this in the thread. I got this idea from Dustfeather and I have her permission to use it.

arrow You may only choose a Gryfeather, Tropiclaw, Rouge, or Flightless gryphons.
arrow You may not roleplay your Mission character until you actually get him/her. That's what this is for; to help you earn the money to get one.
arrow If I don't see you posting on the thread, I remove your Mission. If you aren't posting, you aren't going to win the pot anyways.
arrow You have to pay at least 25% on your own.
arrow You can alter your quest anytime you wish. Just tell me on the thread.
arrow Only those who sign up will get the points.
arrow Points keep accumulating as you win the pots and you may give away the points you earn to other missioners, if you wish.

Gryphon's Name: Paddock
Gender: Male
Tribe: Tropiclaw
Physical Description: Paddock is pure white with black tiger stripes going from his shoulders down to the tip of his tail also coursing over the tops of his wings the under part still pure white. His front legs are as black as the stripes on his body and the fro on top of his head is also black. And on his face is a mask that goes across his eyes only that is also black.
Any LineArt Edit? No.
History/Personality: Paddock is quiet a critic, finding almost everything funny whether it was or not. He's more of a peacefull Gryphon, happier during a nice sunny day hanging with friends up in the trees than a dark stormy day during a war between tribes. Paddock makes friends easily using his humorous side to make any Gryphon he meets laugh.

Paddock was born into a happy family his parents being of the lower ranks in the Tropiclaw tribe. He was never treated any differently than any of the other tribe members and always had everything he ever needed. Paddock is still enjoying each and every peaceful day he comes across with a smile and a laugh at anything he finds funny.

Your Name: KaiRosewolf
Gryphon's Name: Inochi
Gender: Male
Tribe: Rogue
Physical Description: Inochi's body is pure white and sleek, built to be agile but also strong. His color becomes less pure, and more of a light to medium grey as it travels down his legs to his paws. His ear tips, wing tips, and tail tip darken into a medium blue, which becomes nearly black at the very ends. On the side of his left shoulder is a mysterious black marking (http://www.spiritdreamsgr.com/spiritdreamsgr-store/images/sd2324145.jpg).
Any LineArt Edit? None
History/Personality: Inochi is constantly lost in his dreams, wondering where he may go in the future, and what all of life means. He searches for adventure and danger in even the most simplest of tasks, and follows any trail no matter where it leads. He is a fighter, and a very quick one at that. Incredibly protective of those he befriends, watch him, because he never hesitates to join a battle with beak and claws thrashing. Everything to him is another piece in the puzzle of life. Everything is part of his journey.
The young gryphon's past is no particularly harsh one. He was born to a pair of rogues, a female white gryphon and a blue male, who mostly left him on his own since his earliest days. He grew strong, fighting for himself even when fighting wasn't necessary, and fast from flying from the fights he knew he couldn't win. Because of his wild dreams, he has mostly separated himself from his old friends.. Something is out there that he's meant to see, and he's going to find it. Hopefully, he will find others who believe in him too.

Your Name: Valeria
Gryphon's Name: Eliathanus
Gender: Male
Tribe: Tropiclaw
Physical Description: Pretty much like this
Any LineArt Edit?: Yes, please. I would like for him to look somewhat slimmer than the others of his clan, vaguely cockatooish head feathers.
History/Personality: Personality:: Anti-social
History:: Eliathanus was found by Tropurnicous wandering out in the forest by himself. He never knew his parents, since they had happened to die mysteriously before he was hatched. Since he is pretty much raising himself, he is somewhat anti-social, unsure of meeting others and very cynical.

Your Name: Waloon
Gryphon's Name: Zhaneel
Gender: female
Tribe: Tropiclaw
Physical Description: Zhaneel is built muscularly but not bulgy,(runner not wrestler) since her form is more falcon based instead of the usual eagle or hawk bases of gryphns and her plumage is a nice reddish color with light brown highlights, her wings are the same color as her body but speckled with white. *she basically has the coloring of a praire (sp?) falcon which I can get you a pic of if you want more detail*
Any LineArt Edit? I don?t believe so
History/Personality: Her father was a great war general and when her mother was expecting he expected to have a good strong male to follow in his footsteps. When Zhaneel was born her father was disappointed and turned his back on his child. Zhaneel was only loved by her mother though she always tried to live up to her father?s standards, he never thought of her as more than a child She tried her best at fighting and strategizing so that he would think of her as worthy of him but her more falcon like build made her a bit smaller than most, but her sharp mind often made up for what she lacked in build. Her father would take her to the obstacle course and make her run/fly through everything until she dropped, then, mage lash her because she could not finish. She had always dreamed of becoming a sky dancer and because of her fathers merciless training she had the perfect body for it, but, her father forbade her to enter such a frivolous sport. With the help of her mother she practiced in secret and reached an almost profesional level. When she was still very young her mother caught a gryphon form of the plague and died. Her father was on a military campaign when her mother died and when he came back blamed Zhaneel for the death of her mother, saying that she should have taken better care to keep her alive. With no real tie left to keep her father at home he just flew away one day without warning and never came back. Zhaneel was left all alone, with self esteem lower than dirt and no way to advance in her life. She still tries to advance in the army in hopes that her father will one day come back and tell her he is proud of her, but still practices her skydancing, secretly wishing that she could become what she really wants, a skydancer.

FYI
For those who wants to know how to prounce the last part of my name here it is.

Shinigami (shi nee gah mee): means "God of Death"

Information: I got the name from Gundam Wing. Shinigami is the nickname pilot 02, Duo Maxwell, use when he is in battle. The reason why I choose this name is because Duo is my all-time favorite character. For more information about him or me, click on this link (which isn't avaliable to you at this time).

You can offer me for a pet trade but if I turn you down, doesn't mean I don't like your pets, I just don't want so many pets that I lose track of them. ^^; Plus, I'm a little picky.

Thalion's Status:

It's been such a hard few weeks for me both in real life and online. Aside from being fired from my first and only job I've had to come up with a new way to pay for my classes - mooching from my parents. I don't like mooching, I feel like a parasite doing little more than sucking the funds from my family. After that I didn't get a grade in my math class because I was too depressed to work on it half the time and when I got the drive to do it no one helped me understand the material. My own dumb fault I guess. I'm not a full time student but I have far more time on my hands than before. I'm still doing art for the guild but it takes a few tries to get even one gryphon the way I think it should look (IE not sucking). I've been in an artistic slump for a bit. Recently I lost my uncle and the family's pretty shaken up. I'll be pumping out more gryphons if I can manage it. I still need to re-do the featured characters to include my own whee . I'm plotting for a hyppogryph and a seaside tribe (seaside will be for summer though 3nodding The shop owner and colorist are allowed to a free charrie from each if they'd like. Pardon my lacking in the RP as well. I just suck all over sweatdrop .
