Welcome to Gaia! ::

Inside Sunstrike's shop, mild chaos reigns. His pet seems to be ingesting something from one of the shelves, and Sunstrike himself fights desperately to wrench it from the cat-like creature's jaws.

"Oh, hullo!" he says, allowing himself a momentary smile before lunging after the animal once more. "Welcome to my small domain in this little enterprise. In case you can't tell-" Here his words are interrupted by a gentle "Oof!" as in a last desperate dive he pins the animal down and retrieves a (rather slobbery) oblong egg. "This one cost me quite a pretty penny," he remarks in an aside to you, drying the egg off and shooing the pet outside.

Replacing the egg in its artificial nest, he continues his conversation from earlier. "I provide exotic pets from all three continents. Don't feel compelled to buy now, if you don't see anything you're interested in or you're a bit short on cash. My stock changes from time to time. But if you DO see something you like, get it now; some of these may be one-of-a-kind."

Kotaru looked around the shop curiously. "This is fantastic. I must have taken you a while to find all of these." He moved closer to a shelf eyeing it's contents. He spotted Caer and gave a friendly wave. Looks like he wasn't the only one who had stumbled upon this place.

Brifin walked in wondering what this was about. He glanced towards the shelf and its colorful array of....things. He didn't know what they were, what they were for, what they did. Wait....he did see Eragon handing a few over to Sunstrike, but he wouldn't tell him what they were!

"Damn you Eragon." he chuckled eyeing the items. He wondered when they could buy them and what they would turn into. So Eragon was behind this a little tiny bit. He chuckled.

He looked towards the other items. What would come out of these? Would they be pets or companions? Well Brifin was all the to curious but patient. He would only have to find out like the others.

Sun finally seemd to have recovered sufficient breath to speak, and began answering questions.

"Well, Caer, I think thanks to La- my pet, there's been enough attempted eating tonight." He even went so far as to make certain the door was fully closed so the creature couldn't come back inside.

Then he turned to Raven. "To answer your question, they will all be unique with no pet exactly the same." He blinked a couple of times. "I'm afraid I'm not into genetic manipulation."

He adjusted a couple of the items on the shelves, feeling pleased with the interest. "Yes, these do take quite a bit of searching and haggling to locate; I have creatures from all three continents on these shelves. Of course, I can't take all the credit; Eragon Elder has helped me search, and kept our little secret." He winked at Brifin. "He didn't want to keep you in the dark, but I made him promise."

"The pricing is fairly simple. Below each is a tag with numbers followed by letters. G is for 'gelic', the angelic continent's currency. N stands for newts. E represents currency from the dark continent. So if an item has, for example, 30E and 20G, it costs thirty demos and 20 gelics."

He made a final sweep of the room with is eyes. "I hope that makes sense to everyone. Can I explain anything else?"

((Edit: The third one in the bottom row is a typo; it should be all "E".))

((Holy crap, I found this by mistake. xD))

((Alright, if that's Kotaru's choice I'll put it on the list for Sun when he gives them out. ^^

As a sidenote: This time around, you MAY trade shinies of one type for shinies of another, but it must be with another player. We won't change them for you.

Also, the combinations you got weren't arbitrary; they were based on the responses you gave; so if you choose to trade you won't necessarily end up with a pet that reflects your character's personality.))
