The Day of Fools and the Year of Fear

The Year of Verum is over, and as she leaves, we enter a year of pranks and frights! First, a single-day celebration begins on Ortus: the Day of Fools! After Verum's year of truth and bitter honesty, the horses of Ortus just need one day to let loose and be absolutely ridiculous before entering Timor's year of fear and mind games. Today only (April 1st) you can find the Fool, a special limited edition companion, in the wild (including in a small baby form for the 0 year olds). While scholars of fauna and flora argue that this creature is properly called a "blobfish", the horses of Ortus have come to embrace it as a special symbol of this festivities. It comes in three varieties: Blob, Rock, and Potato. You can also find the Leaping Fool (otherwise known as the Goliath Bullfrog). Following the same rules as the Fool, this new companion can only be found today (April 1st) in the wild (including in a small baby form for the 0 year olds). **Both fools are also available in Catura's shop.** We don’t have a new Fool for you this year, but we are planning some spooky contests that will show up throughout the month. There might even be a chance of a Bingomita game or two! As this is also Timor's year, he will step into the mortal plane once more to strike fear into the hearts of those on Ortus. For Timor's event, you may enter the Silvam Infestus  (link in news post on Indo) or on the location page. Click through different directions until you reach either a checkpoint or the end and you'll be rewarded with Timor's event item, a Talisman. If you are stopped by a fiendish feline, you'll receive nothing for your trouble. If you reach a checkpoint (at steps 10 and 20), you can cut your losses and take a partial amount of Talismans. If you're daring enough to make it to the end, you can grab the daily maximum of 30 Talismans per account per day. Any character can be active for the event, and may find additional useful items along the way. You can attempt the Silvanum Infestus as many times as you wish until you reach your daily account maximum of 30 Talismans. You can then spend Talismans in Timor's Shop, on the location page. Timor's month will also include being able to find two Spirits of the Gods in the wild on the 15th of the month... If you feel lucky! Remember, these Spirits are very rare and elusive, and can be found by exploring with both foals and adults. **This month's spirits are Timor and Auctus.** Most importantly, Timor’s month includes Mica’s birthday! On April 8, make sure to wish Mica a happy birthday and keep an eye out for the African Wild Dog in the wild-both babies (for 0 year olds) and adults! Her Staff Spirit will also be roaming Ortus for those willing to search for it! **So, to recap this month's events:** April 1st: Day of Fools and beginning of Timor's Month. April 8th: Mica’s birthday! Find the African Wild Dog and her Staff Spirit in the wild. April 15th: Find Spirits of Timor and Auctus in the wild. Don't forget our usual monthly events, including the Festival of Fertility on the 15th!

Social Media Inactivity

Hey, all! This is your friendly neighborhood Kinju coming out to say sorry!  Over the last year things have been especially crazy for everyone.  I slacked very much on getting our news posts and announcements out on both our Facebook and Tumblr platforms.  I want to apologize for that and let you know that things are now back in motion.(: You may now continue your daily scrolling. :p Thank you!

New Lore and The Year of Verum

Sapientia and Heira have slipped away into the mists of time once again, and with our last lore entry, Sapientia was facing quite the uncertain fate! Although our new lore entry leaves us still with that cliffhanger ending, with it, we are starting to learn more about the past, before the past. The new entry has been added to the Incandium Ultimus -> Sacramentum Memoriae - Enthymema. We hope you enjoy this look into history. Of course with Sapientia's time over, this  means that the Year of Verum is upon us, lasting throughout March. As the goddess of truth, Verum can often be blunt and harsh, though she has been known to show her care, to the rare one who earns it. This month's currency is the "secret". You can earn secrets by correctly answering Trivia questions (found on Location -> General -> Trivia), with each player being able to earn up to 20 per day. Verum loves secrets, and hearing all of those little things you don't want her to know. She will trade those secrets in her shop for a variety of items that allow horses to express their 'true selves'. Items found in this shop include: - Instant Builds (Arabian, Pony, Draft, Donkey, and Warmblood) - Change Height - Gender Change - Companion Coat Changer - Companion Gender Changer Along with the following god items: - Verum's Truth: Allows you to glimpse an unborn foal you have claimed. - Haedra's Vision: Allows you to change the gender of an unborn foal without affecting stallion slots. - Dictum Cantus: Allows you to apply a Cantus scry to an unborn, claimed foal. A guide for it is here. Events happening this month: March 7 is Giraffe's birthday! Keep an eye out for her Giraffe and Staff Spirit in the wild, along with her speckly giraffe tinguo in the shops. March  15 is the Festival of Fertility, during which you will be able to find the Spirit of Verum and Spirit of Haedra in the wilds if you're lucky. They will also be in the shop.

Welcome to the Year of Imber

Welcome to the Year of Imber! Everyone’s favorite water-loving goddess is back to test your brain and your eyes. Imber is asking this month that you use your keen eyes to determine some differences between a series of pictures you'll be shown. All of these images will feature in game bases in different forms with one genetic difference between them. Like with trivia, you'll be provided with four choices that you can choose between. There is a time limit--60 seconds--to answer as many as you can. For each correct answer, you'll earn 1 Raindrop which can be used to purchase some wares from Imber this month in her shop. For those of you who were starting to memorize the old ones, we've tossed a few new ones in to test your skills. Along with her god item (Imber’s Blessed Rain), you’ll find her special companions: the axolotl, the baby axolotl, the iridescent sea turtle, and the regular sea turtle for all the folks who don’t want to travel to find them in the wild.   Ros and Roro are also back!  Remember that Roro has two variations if you apply one gene versus two.  One copy (Roro) will give you a dark blanket appaloosa, and two (RoRo) will give you leopard. :) 

Don’t forget, on September 15, you’ll be able to find the Spirit of Imber and Spirit of Spuma in the wild. 

Our fearless leader, Lucy, also has a birthday on September 21!   You’ll be able to find the Pudu and Lu’s Staff Spirit anywhere on the map on this day. Lucy’s tinguo will also be available in the Chrysos shop.

Additionally, the Round Robin Lore Contest is still open and still looking for entries! This is what you all asked for, a chance for YOUR writings and stories to become canon, and here's your chance! Plus you’ll get a swanky new trophy featuring everyone’s fluffy donkey, Navieus, just for participating! Don't miss out, the thread is right here: Round Robin Lore Contest Oh, and the Prize Shop for the event is here: Prize Shop Goodies Also, don’t forget!  Teams Auctus, Mutare, and Cinis--the Design Your Deity contest ends during Imber’s month, too, on September 15th! Get those designs finalized!

Introducing: The Indomita Tracker

Hello everyone. We hope you're all staying safe and sane with all the madness going on in the world at the moment. Take the time, when you can, to share a little kindness with someone else. It makes a difference. Tonight we're introducing something new: the Indomita Tracker. The tracker (hosted on Trello) is an interactive webpage that, we hope, will offer better clarity and communication between the staff team and the players. On it, you will find our recent news and fixes (which are mirrored from the game website and Discord), but there's more that you can find out. These include - "Bug Watch": See what bugs are on our radar, and any possible ETAs on when they may be fixed. "Current Projects": See what new stuff we're working on, whether it's new art or new features. "Suggestion Tracker": Here you'll find some of the suggestions that we're looking into implementing in the near future, along with a list of rejected submissions (and the reasons why they're rejected). Our goal is to update this weekly at least (though we may not always have something to add). However, there are a couple of points that we also want to make clear: - Players cannot leave comments on the tracker. This doesn't mean we don't want to hear from you; it's just easier to manage and easier to see what's happening if it remains so that only staff can edit and comment on the board. Our communication channels will always remain open. - Not every bug, suggestion, or project may be on the tracker. Especially as we're just getting started, we are still getting things added and edited. We also don't want to clutter the board. If something isn't on the tracker, it doesn't mean that we're ignoring it. If you have any feedback, questions, etc regarding the tracker, please bring them to this forum thread. Finally, we know that there's been some concern about staff privileges (which were discussed on Discord a couple of days ago). We're still reflecting on the feedback provided and considering where changes may need to be made. Please have patience with us.

The Day of Fools & Year of Timor

Following the same rules as the Fool, this new companion can only be found today (April 1st) in the wild (including in a small baby form for the 0 year olds). 

Oh, and just to make sure everyone enjoys the Day of Fools, the mystery deity has made sure to send an Insta-Companion: Leaping Fool to each and every one of you! Both fools are also available in Catura's shop. As this is also Timor's year, he will step into the mortal plane once more to strike fear into the hearts of those on Ortus. For Timor's event, you may enter the Silvam Infestus here or on the location page.

April 15th: Find Spirits of Timor and Auctus in the wild. Don't forget our usual monthly events, including the Festival of Fertility on the 15th!

The Year of Verum: March Events Update

Sapientia and Heira have slipped away into the mists of time once again, and the Year of Verum if upon us, lasting throughout March. As the goddess of truth, Verum can often be blunt and harsh, though she has been known to show her care, to the rare one who earns it. This month’s currency is the “secret.” You can earn secrets by correctly answering Trivia questions (found on Location -> Quest -> Trivia), with each player being able to earn up to 20 per day. Verum loves secrets, and hearing all of those little things you don’t want her to know.

A guide for it is here: https://indomita.net/fmessage.php?type=1&id=11&pid=1993

Since the days seem to sneak up on us so easily, we’re also giving you a head’s up that March 7 is Giraffe's birthday! To celebrate, you will be able to find the Giraffe companion, as an adult or baby (for the 0 year olds!) anywhere in the wild. Wish our favorite long-necked friend a happy one! As we mentioned last month, we will have two new Spirits of the Gods available to find on the 15th of the month! This month we have Verum, begrudgingly sharing her secrets with Haedra. They can only be found on the 15th, but will be able to be found anywhere, even the chrysos shop, if you’d rather not go crazy in the wild looking. (And as a side note, all of the Spirit companions are now added under the Encyclopedia’s Companion Guide, in Prey, if you want to take a peek at your favorites!)

Recent Updates

Hey all! We have just a couple updates for you tonight, small and simple: - Alpha pack members should be able to appease for socialization in addition to nourishment. This means that packs now have access to all four appeasements.- Mark of Lar now has Chimera, Manchado, Lacing, and Brindle (they're at the bottom of the list if you go looking). This will let you put these on top of your existing designs and in some new colors, too! Have fun playing with these. In fact, I've put Mark of Lar back in the Chrysos shop for a limited time in case you're out. ;)

- Assigned foals (marked with a star) will now appear at the top of your raising list.

The Year of Sapientia Arrives

A still, bleak whiteness had enveloped Ortus, and it was to this that Sapientia’s year began. The gray flecked goddess gave a nod as Angelus Mortis retreated to Aeternum. She would keep watch as they gathered. Deep in her heart, her years of wisdom and witnessing history, she already knew what was about to happen. For now, it was her chance to bring warmth back to Ortus as best she could. Welcome to the year of Sapientia! The month of February on Indomita is dedicated to our goddess of wisdom. This month, you may seek out artifacts while exploring with your horses. You can find a total of 30 per day. Those artifacts can be spent at her special shop, monitored by the charming Sophia. Here’s what’s on offer: - Sapientia’s Secret, which will allow you to resurrect a retired horse from the dead!  This character’s fertility will be set to 0, so they won’t be able to breed or pray for a foal. Their AP may also be reduced if they had used +AP items before. Be mindful, if you resurrect a stallion who previously did not take up a stallion slot, he will do so now. - Infinitum Canen, a special marking/gene which can be used on any horse at any age. This ‘freezes’ a stage of gray on the horse’s base coat, even if they don’t have gray! For more information please look at the Encyclopedia for the page called “The Grey Gene.” - Heira’s Renewal, a god item which reduces the age of a horse over the age of four by one year. You can use up to two of these on a single character. - Tinguo (Fleabitten), a marking which lightens the coat with a speckled texture. - Add a Gene: Lucidus, which causes most white markings to gray over time. Check the gene section in the encyclopedia for more information on how this works! - Decaspiri Snake, a companion brought from Sidus through Sapientia’s friendship with Heira. This slithering animal is well-respected by equines on Sidus for its wisdom and knowledge, as it lives longer than any mortal horse in all of Paradisus. The Chrysos Shop will have Sapientia’s Secret, Heira’s Renewal, and Infinitum Canen available for purchase for 20 Chrysos each. Finally, we have a new piece of lore for you! You can find it under Encyclopedia -> Geography and Lore -> Augurio Finem -> Chapter 10: On Raven’s Wings. We hope you enjoy the lore and the month’s events!

New Lore: Tempus Fugit

Time is, was, and will be. This we know. But time is fluid, changing to suit the needs of its space. A new piece of lore has been added! You can find it under the Encyclopedia -> Geography and Lore -> Augurio Finem -> Interlude: Tempus Fugit. It seems that this year of Vita will bring an even more bitter second winter...

The Year of Vita Brings New Wonders

Good news, everyone - the Black Friday sale has been extended through Monday. This means packs will still appear in the Black Friday shop (and you can still buy Chrysos) until rollover on Monday into Tuesday. Once it's officially December 3 on Indo, the sale will come to an end! With that out of the way, let us officially welcome winter with the Year of Vita! Vita’s month of celebrations is a special one here on Indomita. Since it’s holiday time most everywhere, no one wants to be caught trying to maximize trinkets and trade-ins, right? Instead, Vita’s tradition is an Advent Calendar, available on the top navigation bar or click HERE. Starting today, you can claim one daily gift from Vita. Gifts are given out in order; if you miss a day, you’ll receive the next item on the calendar and not the gift from the current day. There are a total of 24 gifts, and you have all 31 days of December to collect them, giving you extra time to grab all your presents. This year, Catura will also be helping Vita with some of the limited edition gifts near the end of the year, in case you want more than one of those fluffy, frosty companions. As a side note, some gifts will be delivered to your user inventory, but others will be given to your active horse. Just in case you go looking for your new presents! We’ve got another few special new gifts this year, and Vita’s changed her calendar up yet again, so expect some surprises! And, hooves crossed, the Gods may have a few more treats in store for the end of 2019...

Halloween Party Is Here Again!

It's Halloween once again! Can I first just say that the staff have been thrilled to bits by all of the trick or treating in our threads? Not to mention all the great roleplay? You guys are really making us smile! And we hope we're doing the same in turn. But we've got this last day to celebrate this spooky holiday! 

First up, all the companions! You'll find the Butterfly Bat has returned to the wild this year, along with the new Skeletal Python and Fools Lantern. Meanwhile, all three of these, plus the Ghost Bear, Blackened Wild Dog, Ghostly Lynx, Cross Fox, Ghost Otter, and the secretive Hallowed Panda are available in Catura's Shop! What's also available today? Why, Pumpkin Tinguo and the Skull Face Marking are back in the shops for one day only - hit up Catura or the Chrysos shop! EDIT: And for one day only (the code worked, yay!) you can use pumpkin and aflame as colors in Mark of Lar! EDITED EDIT: With Skull going MIA in the MoL, a request thread has been set up HERE so you can get a chance at the ultimate spooky goodness. Remember to visit all the trick or treat threads before the night is up! Also remember that it's the last day of Solum's Festival - so get those team donations in! The staff is planning a fun Aether's month so we hope you're ready to play. Images © OurTinyFamily LLC

Halloween is Coming

A fitful wind blows through the trees, bringing with it the faint laughter of the young and young at heart. As Solum’s month draws to a close, your staff have decided to bring some of Aether’s shenanigans a little early. For this week, some of us will be hosting “Trick or Treat” threads. For those of you unfamiliar with forum based ToT/Light On, Lights Off events, here’s a quick run down. The thread title will have the host’s status. Lights ON, means they are there, ready to treat, or trick. Lights OFF means they are away, or not participating at the moment. RP is optional! You can simply post a request, but if you’re in the mood, feel free to post an RP style response/request. Be sure to read the thread’s rules! Depending on which horse is currently active, you might be more likely to be tricked than treated! But don’t worry, we won’t cause any lasting harm. We promise. Threads: Flamesong Lithium micamoney VS Nightweaver

New Iguana & Sea Lion Colors Plus Catura Flash Sale

Hello everyone! We've got a few treats for you today. First up, we have several new companion colors. Green Iguanas (found already in the wild) now have three new color variations thanks to Flamesong: light green, blue green, and albino. Meanwhile, Lith's brought us the leucistic sea lion! All of these are out in the wild right now, or you can use a companion coat changer. Today on Discord we were asked if the Baby Starter Packs were still stocking in Catura, and the answer is no. These were removed because they were a severe imbalance to the game's economy, both between players and to the Chrysos market in general. While they won't be a part of her regular stock any more, they may still appear on special flash sales. Speaking of which, I've thrown in some things for the next few days in Catura's shop: all of the Instant Aptitude items (yes, including the ones from Caussa), Auto Aging, and +25 AP. These will be in there until the shop resets on rollover into Monday next week. Speaking of next week, Halloween is coming, and that means some spooky presents and treats are bound to appear....
