exclaim PLEASE READ ALL THE RULES BEFORE BUYING A SUGAR SLOT

Some quick recaps :

- Sugar Fairies are not long term RP pets. There's a RP time limit and all the Fairies need to be caught within it.
Current RP time limit is : max 2 weeks from when you get the slots
- Check the breeding spots to see if sugar slots are available.
- RP option 1 is for (possible) fruits, vegetable and generic sweet food (such as honey and milk). Any premade can be played with that option as well.
- RP option 2 is for any type of flavour (fruits, vegetables, flowers, and any thing human made such as candies, cakes etc)

04/06 : Summer FMD
I'm planning a FMD for the end of the week end/monday so for those who intend to make their SFs breed, please suscribe to the list (which will be displayed on the breeding spot) saying which Fairies are participating so that I can get an estimation of how many slots I should release. Thank you

07/06 : Slots sold !

Ok I need to say a few things about the RP because due to the high number of players

- as you can see I've put the RP limit to the end of the month so there are about two-three weeks and that should give enough time
- I'm not looking for mandatory RP every other day and such but try to keep you RP as regular as possible ~ thanks
- also I'm gonna need some time to draw all the art, work on the quests etc... and especially until I'm done with the art. I'll probably be updating statuses once a day at most , and probably when I'll be online during the morning (GMT time). I mean coming at the shop and RP getting a FCSC, or you are just speaking to Aquelea you don't need to wait a day between each posts. But for status changes and between each Aqualea's task (this rule one quest max per day was already there before), there will be one day break at least.

+++ Sugar Fairies +++


User Image Hello there, my name is Ebony. Welcome to the Sugar Fairies Shop ! Although I don't sell the Fairies directly, I can teach how to catch one and will provide you the necessary items you need in order to do so.

But first at all, let me introduce you to the Sugar Fairies, because you probably wonder what are these. Sugar Fairies are tiny beings that live in the nature. You usually can't see them because they made themselves invisible. They generally avoid humans because they are afraid of them, yet they sometimes sneak into houses to steal their all time favorite food, sugar. But they take so small quantities that we never notice it anyway. Sugar Fairies have two shapes. The first one is called Lumen and this is the shape used by the Fairies most of time, as they can travel very fast and made themselves invisible with it. The second one is the actual fairy form. For this one, the appearence of Sugar Fairies is linked to their taste, they wear clothes and accessories that recall their favorite food. If a Fairy's favorite meal is cherries, well you can expect her to have cherry-shaped earrings and wear a red dress for instance. Pure sugar doesn't exist in nature, so they feed themselves with foods that contain it such as fruits, honey, nectar, and the like. Here is an exemple of one that I managed to catch, a strawberry Sugar Fairy (the Lumen look all alike by the way). Isn't she so cute ?^o^
User Image - Blocked by "Display Image" Settings. Click to show.User Image

What you need to do to catch a Sugar Fairy is pretty simple. All you have to get is a mere sugar cube. Well not exactly... you need a sugar cube and something I won't tell you about because I'm selling my services. Yep, business is businness XD I'll take a sugar cube and I will turn it into a special sugar cube. You also have to bring a fruit for this. Or anything provided it contains sugar. Even chocolate might work, you never know. Some vegetables and flowers should work too. Also, I've got some special items, which make possible to attract rare Fairies, but we'll talk about that later.

Interested in getting a Sugar Fairy ? ^^ Read carefully the following (in red, parts that need to be RPed) :

  • Step 1 : First at all you need a 'sugar slot'. These will be auctionned, or or will be available through breeding. Check the Breeding Spot section to see if they are slots that can be bought.

  • Step 2 :Once you've managed to get a slot, bring me something so that I can make you a FCSC (Fairy-Catcher Sugar Cube) or buy an available item from the rare items section. You are welcome to bring several items and ask for advice of course


exclaim Update ~
Quote:
As the number of Fairies keeps growing, and in order to avoid similarities in flavours, I've decided to put some restrictions on Sweet Food/Candy Sugar Fairies (anything that is human-made). Why this category ? Because they are not 'natural' Fairies, and thus other types of Sugar Fairies will have priority. So from now on, the following items are NOT available :

- candies and cakes made from fruit or fruit-flavoured
- animal/item shaped candies
- sweets containing chocolate (however chocolate itself is still available, for now)
- ice creams, milkshakes, mousses, etc
- also things that have not a strong sweet taste (liquorice for instance)

However I'd like to point out that there are exceptions in some categories, although I'm not willing to list them. It's not ALL the candies, etc in the mentionned categories which are concerned but MOST of them. So in any case, if you want a Sweet Food/Candy FCSC, just ask for approval BEFORE Rping for it, that would simplify things.


Quote:
Please note that you can't reserve flavours, I'll do it only under special cicumstances such as during raffles, etc.

List of flavours that have already been taken (*=used for a rare, but still available as common/uncommon, flavour= only available to rare fairies) :

A-C
- anniversary cake / apple / apricot / autumn crocus / banana / bird of paradise / blackberry / blueberry / bubblegum / buttercup / butterfly bush (budleia) / calisson / candy cane / candy corn / caramel / carrot / cherry / chocolate* / cinammon / coconut / cotton candy / cream puff / creme brulee / crepe / cupcake

D-L
- daffodil / daisy / doughnut / dragon fruit / fortune cookie / fuchsia / gingerbread / ginger (beer) / grapes / guava / honey / honeysuckle / iris / jam / kiwi / konpeito (sugar stars) / lavender / lemonade / lily / liquorice / lotus / lychee

M-P
- madeleine / marshmallow / mangosteen / maple syrup / melon / morning glory / milk / mulberry / orange / passion fruit / pea / pear / peppermint / persimmon / pineapple / plum / pomegranate / pumpkin /

R-Z
- raspberry / rice candy / rose / samain (halloween cake) / soda / snapdragon / snowdrop / strawberry / sugarcane / sunflower / sweetcorn / sweet potato / tigerlily / tulip / tomato / vanilla / waffle / watermelon / wedding cake / wisteria

  • Step 3 : Put the FCSC on a dish (I suggest you take a pretty one, anyway describe it :3 you can also add a picture/photo) and place it somewhere in your house (see RP Guidelines on post 7). Please use good spelling and grammar. Your RP text can be only a few lines long as quality is better than quantity but you can do more of course. What you write will be placed in the Owners Corner and I'll add your FCSC status below it.

  • Step 4 : The FCSC doesn't always work (rare items may take some time but will definitely work), so do not forget to check the sugar status in Owners Corner. But don't worry, you'll get a Fairy eventually. Just come back to the shop and I'll give you another FCSC.

    Three reasons are possible. The first one is simply that the effect of the FCSC worn off, before a Fairy that like its flavour found it. If your FCSC was made with apple and a Fairy which favorite flavour is banana founds it, she will only nimble some bits and fly away. Second possibility is that the item you gave me to make the FCSC doesn't attract common Fairies. Which either means that it attracts uncommon Fairies or no Fairies at all. Most (but not all) fruit Sugar Faires are widely spread. Flower ones are not particularely uncommon, but live in limited areas, hence they are harder to attract. Vegetable ones tend to be uncommon and therefore you'll probably need several attemps before catching one. If you bring me a fish for the FCSC, I can already tell you that it will be a complete failure *stares* Sugar Fairies don't eat meat and so on. But you can always give a try, of course... I don't know about 'human-made' items, such as sweets and cakes. But I heard that with the growing numbers of big towns, some Fairies became city Fairies, and survive by 'robbering' bakeries and sweet shops. But this need to be proved, and if any of these Fairies exists, it would probably be a very uncommon one. Third reason is that some events that are beyond my control may happen. In any case, your status will be updated so check it carefully.

    exclaim If your FCSC doesn't work, you may ask for another one with the previous flavour, or pick something else. But keep in mind that if the item you brought actually attracts uncommon Fairies, you need to keep trying at least a couple of times in a row, if not more. It's up to you to decide if it's worth spending time to get an uncommon Fairy. However, if your attempts fail five times, I recommend trying another flavour for the FCSC. It can also be a strategic choice to get a common Fairy and make it breed to get an uncommon Sugar Fairy.

  • Last step : Finally, your FCSC has attracted the right Fairy. You know it because you noticed a small white spirit blob thing near it. Now do you best to 'catch' it, not with you hands or anything, but by befriending with the Lumen. You don't need to RP a lot for this, a dozen of line are fine. But of course feel free to RP more than, for the pleasure of RPing. But because the Fairy will decide to stay if she thinks you are a nice person, the way you act is important though. And the dish you used too :3 No Fairy will think you'll ever respect her if you used an ugly or a dirty dish :/ If the Fairy likes you, she will leave her Lumen Form and show her true form.

    Hmm, that's all ^^ Just give your Fairy a name. You can carry on RPing with her of course. They may be other features for Sugar Fairies later too, but I can't say it for sure right now.

    +++ Ebony's Counter +++

    User Image Here is the part of the shop where I'm displaying various items such rare items for FCSCs, premade FCSCs, and from time to time totally random things that are not always linked to the Sugar Fairies...

    User Image


    So if you followed me so far, you know that they are common and uncommon Sugar Faeries. Rare Fairies also exist, all Lumen are potentially rare Fairies which means that any Fairy may change her appearance if she taste something new and became fond of it. Rare Sugar Fairies have usually two attributes, one that is common or uncommon, and another which is impossible to get with irl items. Actually these are a sort of 'evolved' Fairies and can be caught only by using a special item. I brought some from my travel in others worlds and I'm selling them here, so feel free to look around.

    Normal flavours are free, as you bring me the item for the making of the FCSC. However, if you want a rare item, first at all you need a sugar slot of course, but you also need to add 10k. Rare Fairies are pricey but have a more complex design and can breed more than other Fairies too.

    xXx

    To purchase a premade FCSC, post in this thread saying which one you'd like to buy, then send the trade. I take any items that is listed in breeding spot as part of the payment by the way.

    These will be sold when the fancy takes me... Currently as you can see, I have an egg, who know what it could hatch into ?

    User Image


    Game : I wonder how many people will see it ninja If you want to take part of it, you just have to post here the word 'splash(es)' and the number of people you think will see the egg, for instance '10 splashes'. Telling others about the game or the meaning of the splashes is forbidden. At the end of the month, the person who guess the right number (or the closest) will win a little something.

    Plate : http://www.pika-art.com/pix/gaia/pikasfairyplate.jpg

    Walking out the shop, she turned around the corner and headed up toward the flower gardens. She could smell the roses on the breeze; as she headed to the back of the shop they greeted her with a riot of colour. Bag over her shoulder, she slowly walked through the garden looking at every plant for the perfect spot to rest the plate.

    The flower garden was well tended and surrounded a circular greenhouse with a ring of tulips and daffodils. Around each section was a narrow line of marigolds to keep the aphids at bay. Bending down to sniff a lovely pink rose, Pika noticed there was quite a few ladybugs about. Smiling, as Pika adored ladybugs, she caught one off a petal and set it on the rim of the lilac fairy plate. Finding a spot near the back of the garden and the orchard, she set the small dish beneath a cluster of flowers and placed the FSCS upon it. As she stood up she noticed something off to the side in a tiny clump of Lily of the Valleys. 'Perfect timing!' she thought and gently scooped it up.

    maryhale17
    I woke up early and jumped out of bed. I was very excited because today was the day that I would set up a place for my new FCSC. Ciruela, Zi and I spent the previous day travelling to Ebony's shop to have it made.

    I walked into the kitchen and the two fairies were already waiting for me.

    "Put it here" Ciruela said and pointed to the open kitchen window with the flower box hanging outside of it.

    "Oh! I was thinking outside but I guess that could work too."

    "Perfect spot!" exclaimed Zi.

    I giggled at their excitement. I went to the cabinet and took out a small dessert plate. I wiped it off and set it onto the window ledge. I went to the table and picked up the box containing the FCSC. I carefully took it out of the box and set it on the center of the plate.

    I went to the table again and sliced a small piece out of the grape pie that we made the previous morning. I put the slice on the plate next to the FCSC and took one of the tiny cups out of the cabinet. I filled that with grape juice and set it next to the plate.

    "Ok girls, we should let it be and see what happens. We don't want to scare a new
    friends away!"

    We all went into the family room to work on different projects. Ciruela danced, Zi painted and I decided to read a book. None of us could get our minds off of the
    FCSC long enough to concentrate on what we were doing....

    +++ Breeding spot +++

    User ImageSugar Fairies breed during Full Moon Dances (called FMDs for short). They will be held at the shop, in the garden and I'll set up a thread at the guild for those who wants to RP as well ^^

    Sugar Fairies can breed but since they are spirits and not animals, the process is totally different. They do a mystic danse during which they use their Lumen form to merger and once they split, new Lumen are created. This event is very energy consuming for them, therefore Sugar Fairies can breed only up to three times (except for rare Fairies who can breed up to five times) and only once a while, during full moon nights. Something even more particular, they can be breed by couple or by group of several Fairies ! The number of Lumen created in this way is quite variable. But I must tell you something, the Lumen won't stay with you ^^; So what is the point of making your Fairy breed ? It will allow others to get a 'flat sale' sugar slot. You may buy one for yourself as well, and you have the priority in this case. And this time catching a Fairy will be much easier for uncommon ones. New born Sugar Fairies have greater chance to like your FCSC as they don't have much experience.

    exclaim Breeding is free and any Fairy can participate to the Full Moon Party event. But each sugar slot will cost 50k (you can have a 15k discount the second time you are purchasing a slot).

    Slots open on Moondays !
    (i.e. on Mondays)

    Available Sugar Slots : 2 (rare for this month : non available)
    RP option 3 : Elda-chan
    RP option 3 :


    23/01 update : Regarding RP options, from now on if you are first time player, you can choose any RP option even if the default RP option is 3.

    Accepted for payment :
    - gold
    - 03 donations items @ mid LD
    - 04 & 05 donations items @ low LD (except jan 04, march 04 and june 04, all at mid LD)

    +++ RP Guidelines +++



    You have two options to RP to catch a Fairy, the first one is to put the FSCS in your own house/garden and the second one is to leave it near the shop.

    The second option will give you the possibility to catch uncommon Fairies with candy/cake/etc attributes and any kind of flower Fairies, which is most of time impossible with the first type of RP (logically the Full Moon Dance happens in my garden, so new Lumen will stay around, and you can't really expect them to travel to your home...).

    BUT in order to do so, you will have to challenge the Goddess of the Spring first. She is the friend of the Fairies living here, and will let you catch a Fairy only if she thinks that you will be a dedicated owner. More details ~

    User Image


    • Option 1 : Catch a Fairy at home

      I'd like you to give me some information (it can be done through RP if you wish) :
      Quote:
      - Where is your house ? (not the name of the place, I mean if it's a small town, a big city, a farm, near the sea, in the mountains, etc)
      - Apart from you who live in the house ?
      - Do you have any pets ? (normal ones like cats, dogs, etc or imaginary ones like dragons are ok, not Gaian pets I don't want to godmod with them of course)


      These have not to be irl information of course, you can tell me you're living alone in the forest in a gingerbread house, it's totally fine XD

      Also some guidelines when you RP for the FCSC :
      Quote:
      - Once I've made it and gave it to you, you have to put it somewhere in your house
      - Place your FCSC near an opening, for instance on the table near the open window of your living room or the mousehole in your kitchen. You can put it in the garden as well if you have one. Use you imagination ^^


    • Option 2 : Challenge Aqualea, The Goddess of the Spring

      First at all you need to RP and put the FSCS somewhere here :

      User Image


      Then your first quest will be to find the Goddess, she is in the spring of course but you will need to make her appear.

      Quote:
      Clue 1 : The Goddess is in water but she is also on 'Earth'
      Clue 2 : Once you find her, you have 'read' something for extra clues


      Important : Don't simply go near the spring and wait there, you have to do some action, otherwise nothing will happen.

      Once this part is done, you will have to solve her riddles or to complete the quests she'll be giving you. There are different kind of quests and you must RP them in order to clear them (please note that they are not listed in order and you may have other sort of quests as well) :

      arrow Solve the Riddle ~ just like the title says

      arrow Find the Item Quest ~ Sometimes you have to do the Solve the Riddle game before knowing which item you have to find. The item is always hidden near the shop (ie in the thread) and you'll have to use the location given to RP.

      arrow Poems ~ You will have to fill missing words or write one yourself with the words the Goddess give you.

      arrow Tell me a Tale ~ The Goddess will give you a theme or a title and you'll have to find the story or invent it.

      I know there are sometimes easy ways to complete these, but try to play fair ok ? Otherwise there's not much pupose to play these games. Also you can summon the Goddess only once a day. And don't forget to keep an eye on your FCSC status.

      User Image


      Hygiene and Beauty ~

      Sugar Fairies are very clean. They hate mud, dust and garbage. Having a fountain or a water spot like a well or a pond near you house would be a good idea, as they love to wash themselves often and play with water. They also love anything as long as it is clean, cosy, pretty or natural.

      Language ~

      Sugar Fairies use telepathy to communicate with other Sugar Fairies and magical creatures. They can also talk to other animals an go well with them, with some exceptions like small carnivores (weasels, etc) and birds of prey. They can also use human languages, however they don't master it very well and make some mistakes. They usually have the same amount of vocabulary than 5 to 7 year-old children and speak with simples, shorts sentences. However when living with a human, they can learn more of course. Yet they often don't understand abstract things. If you tell them that it is raining cats and dogs, they will go and look outside if such a wonder is possible. But if you explain to them what it means, they'll understand. Still they will find it very funny and you can expect them to sing "it's raining cats and dogs" the rest of the day. They love long and/or complicated words or phrases and like to repeat them whenever they can. There's things they will never understand though, like politics or maths, they'll just look at you with their big eyes wondering what you are talking about.

      Sugar Fairies have a soft, musical voice. They love to sing and to giggle a lot as well. They may be quite shy at the beginning but once they'll know you, they can turn into regular chatterboxes (it can depend of course, each Fairy as her own personnality).

      Rare Fairies ~

      The Fairies that will evolve into a Rare Sugar Fairy are usually from types that are already 'rare' in the nature such as Vegetable or Candy/Sweet Food Fairies. The reason for this is that the latter are the ones that are usually temerarious and sometimes even cheeky (the average Sugar Fairy is quite shy and discreet). Rare Fairies make natural leaders. The fact that the Regal Pea Fairy didn't hesitated to fight against moths or that the Chocopup Fairy had taken a much shyer sister under her wing are good examples.
      Therefore Rare Fairies can be friends but if living together, they may not go along that well and this is especially the case if their rare attributes are conflictual by nature, a Fairy with a bird attribute and another with a bug attribute won't make good friends for instance.

    +++ Sugar FAQ +++



    Note : Please don't PM me asking for to work here here or asking me to work for you. Maybe as guest artist/colorist for auctions (if I have time and I'm interested) but certainly not as full-time artist or to draw linearts and the like. I won't reply anymore to these requests.




    Q : How can I get a Sugar Fairy ?
    A : When a sugar slot is available, in an auction or after a Full Moon Dance. I will also do pet/art trade (but I'll be uber picky). As the purpose of this shop is to raise funds for an art contest/commissions art for my OC, I'll also take bribes if they are appealing enough :3

    Q : Are Sugar Fairies only female ?
    A : Uh ? I guess yes but who knows... They have only a female appearance btw, actually they are spirits and don't breed the way humans and other animals do.

    Q : Can I PM you ?
    A : Yup, but unless you need a private/personnalized answer, I prefer if you post in the thread.

    Q : Is there a limit to the amount of Sugar Fairies I can own ?
    A : Not really. The more I'm free, the more I offer sugar slots (but I'm rather busy so don't expect a lot of them to be available). You can have as many common or uncommon Fairies but you may own only one Rare Sugar Fairy though.

    Q : I've got a sugar slot and I'd like a strawberry FCSC, is it ok ?
    A : I'm afraid I won't take any flavour that was previously sucessfully used by an owner to catch Fairy. They are so many flavour possibilities, and variety is more fun, isn't it ? Rare flavours don't count however. Let's take the example of Apricats, although they are obviously linked to apricots XD if no Apricot Fairy was already caught, then you may request for a apricot-flavoured FCSC.

    Q : Can I give you [insert weird item name] to make the FCSC ?
    A : Even if you have a great item to propose, I guess no. I'm not taking anything from you that doesn't exist irl. All my rare items have been tested by me :3 and I know that they are totally hazard-proof for Sugar Fairies. *cough cough* The only exceptions I'll do is if you bribe me with mini wings and earlier event/donation items... XD

    Q : How do I know if my FCSC is working or not ?

    A : Changes will appear under your RP text that will be displayed in the Owners Corner. Therefore you have to come and check in this very thread.

    Q : How long does it take to catch a Fairy ?
    A : It depends on the type of Fairy (common/uncommon/rare) and your RP participation. Anywhere from a few days to 2 weeks I guess. I'll try to update as soon as I can, but I don't have Internet and I connect from a computer room, so it may take a while (but usually I connect every other day at least).

    Quote:
    exclaim Always check the time limit ! Sugar Fairies are not long term RP pets. So there is a RP time limit you need to catch your Fairy within it. If you don't have time, then please refrain from buying a slot, you'll be wasting your gold as your slot will simply expire. I won't rant on this again, to sum up I'm a busy student with Internet access issues, so bare with me.


    Q : Do I have to roleplay to own a Sugar Fairy
    A : Yes, at least until you catch your Fairy. But after that, it's up to you. But I'm not asking for heavy RP anyway but regular RP until you catch your Fairy.

    Q : Where do we RP ?
    A : In this thread mainly. You can make your own RP thread at the guild if you wish to set up a journal or RP with the other owners.

    Q : Can I sell/trade/give away my Sugar Fairy ?
    A : No. If for some reason, you don't want her anymore, I'll take her back.

    Q : How can I get a custom Sugar Fairy ?
    A : All of them are semi custom, except for premades. But I do not garanty that you will have the first flavour you asked for (unless it's a rare item).

    Q : Can I buy a slot for a friend ?
    A : I'd rather not, I had issues in the past with this. I'm willing to do exceptions though, especially towards regular visitors of the thread, but you just have to check that with me first.

    +++ Pet Trades +++


    I'll take these but with moderation. If you are a talented artist and are ok to do OC art, I'm even more interested. I've never been a hectic pet collector like some Gaians anyway :3

    Please note that I have the right to turn down offers. Don't be offended, it's nothing against your pet/art, I just might be too busy to do an extra Sugar Fairy or the pet you want to trade is not really my type. Also I won't take any pet that requires mandatory RP (unless listed) and any pets that need to be care of (i.e. that will die if I don't feed it and so on or won't evolve etc). I just don't have enough time for these.

    Pets I will consider trading for :

    - a custom Caith ~ Got a Four-Saddle Puffer one at a FS eek heart
    - a Pocket Pigmy?
    - a (tako) Go Go Sushi ~ won it at the design contest whee heart
    - a Tree Baby
    - possibly others, as I'm not really aware of all the pets here, you may have a nice one and I don't know about it ^^

    Trades I'm doing :

    - for bumping service ~ MisstressKitty
    - for cert helping, etc ~ sweetly_25
    - for OC art ~ dysfunctional_kyou
    - for a Spring Wethkin ~ Pika-Bunny
