What a Load of Shift 2023

WHAT A LOAD OF SHIFT 2022!

WHAT A LOAD OF SHIFT 2023!

It's that time of year again! Darhaskos doesn't usually like to come out and play, but it seems that he was in the mood for one particularly pesky prank!
 
A handful of Ketucari have woken up transformed into new bodies! What in the world is happening? It appears Darhaskos has put you into the shoes of the other races of Velukaelo. The magic is strong, but is bound to wear off in a few hours. Maybe you can learn to harness this skill and use the magic as your own? Or maybe you just want to go home and sleep it off? (You weenie. Get out of bed.)
EVENT ENDS 5-14-23*
 
This event is reoccurring, and will happen again in April 2024.
 
WINNERS: Will be announced here at the end of the event!
 
Note: If you want, you may enter multiple times with one ketucari*.
This is for those who want only one or two ketucari changed, or do not own more than one. After your initial entry that shows their new form, you can do more pieces depicting them for additional entries!! HOWEVER, these still counts towards your entry limit. Keep that in mind!
 
You're only able to get up to five tickets for this event.
 
*If entering multiple time for a humanoid form with one ketucari, they must either be the same race in each depiction, or you must be very clear in the descriptions which race their shift form is. Prompts do not have to be "new" (as in posted after the event starts) however they cannot have been sumitted for previous years, used with Darhaskos's Talismans, or with Small Flip Coins.
 

ART PROMPT

Darhaskos has played a trick on you! Your ketucari has been transformed into one of Velukaelo's races. Draw your ketucari as one of the following. (Your choice!)
Human
Akadri
Jordskar
Hibridi
Heldyr
Lucedarian
 
NEW: As of 2021, you may instead transform your ketucari into one of Velukaelo's fauna (or any earth animal)!
You may make a reference, a simple standing sketch, a full illustration, or anything in between! All are acceptable.
 
Must be full body.
70% of the body must be visible. (For those of you who hate drawing hands!)
Must be colored. Does not have to have shading.
While humanoid shift forms don't need to resemble the ketucari, please remember that animal forms Do.
Yes, you are allowed to include an outfit! Darhaskos isn't that cruel.
Nudity allowed. Please censor The Bits and apply the correct filter on whatever site you're hosting on.
Please be mature about this and do not include anything that would be considered erotic, thank you.
Submit your entries HERE
 

WRITING PROMPT

Darhaskos has played a trick on you! Your Ketucari has been transformed into one of Velukaelo's races. (Your choice!)
Human
Akadri
Jordskar
Hibridi
Heldyr
Lucedarian
NEW: As of 2021, you may instead transform your ketucari into one of Velukaelo's fauna (or any earth animal)!
What happens when they transform? How do they deal with it? How do others react to it? What do they look like? Tell us a story about this life-changing event! 300 words minimum per Ketucari.
Must have a decent description of what the Ketucari looks like in their new form at some point in the literature piece.
While humanoid shift forms don't need to resemble the ketucari, please remember that animal forms Do.
Roleplays are allowed, as long as the above requirements are met!
Submit your entries HERE
 

RULES

You may transform up to five (5) of your own Ketucari.
This limit still applies if somebody else designs your ketucari's new forms for you. You can draw/write for your own Ketucari, or for others. Please get permission before designing for other players.
The five Ketucari transformation limit only applies to your own Ketucari, you may design for as many people as you desire, as long as they do not go over their FIVE limit. You are allowed to do more than one art/lit piece. Do as many as you wish, but keep the above limit in mind. If a Ketucari with this new skill is transferred to a different player, they will keep the skill, and the new owner will be able to redesign their new form.
 

REWARDS

You will be able to draw your ketucari in this new form when participating in all future group activities!
They will be able to tap into their magic to shapeshift into this new form at will. This is entirely optional, but can be considered canon!
You will also be entered into an RNG giveaway.
 
Two members will win herbal brews (strong or normal,) and one lucky member will win two starter slots of their choice!
Three members will win their choice of a Small Flip Coin or a Darhaskos's Talisman!
The more entries you do, the more tickets you receive.
Five tickets max.
Raffle tickets go to the owner of the ketucari being transformed.
 
 
Lastly, we will be raffling off an import to one lucky grand prize winner!
IN ORDER TO BE ENTERED TO WIN THIS KETUCARI, YOU MUST COMMENT YOUR ENTRIES ON THIS THREAD: POST HERE WITH AT LEAST ONE COMPLETED ENTRY TO ENTER FOR THE RAFFLE KET

ROULETTE LITTERS - 15 USD EACH

 

  • “Roulette litter” means that the sire and dam are randomly chosen out of all available starters. Specific starters cannot be requested, as this defeats the purpose of the randomness.
  • Each litter will contain 2-4 cubs.
  • An admin will randomly roll which sire and which dam will be used for your litter, then roll the resulting cubs. This is done purely by RNG, which will also be determining the litter size. The parents, as well as the litter itself, will be posted to Breeding Requests and you will be notified once it's up! After that, what you decide to do with the cubs is up to you! They are yours to keep, sell, trade, etc.

WHOOPS there was an error... [Season 3 Wanderers]

Posted 1 year ago :: Last edited 1 year ago by Matriarchs-Haunt

EDIT/SMALL UPDATE: As of Tuesday, March 21st, 10:00AM CDT, Tint's passrate has been boosted to 30%!

Hello everybody!
It was very recently discovered that Blazing Star ST-2786 had an error in her genotype that prevented her from passing her Tint gene!

Like
At All.

So after some discussion we decided that the fairest way to handle this is to ask players who own Undesigned Liatris Cubs from breedings rolled Prior to March 19, 2023 to post here with proof of ownership to specifically have a simple 1-100 RNG run through Random.org to see if they get Tint. Edited genos will be posted back into the thread. The error has been fixed and any breedings rolled after March 19, 2023, will not have this reroll available.

This is Opt In. No other genes on the cubs will be touched or rerolled, and if you don't mind the lack of Tint you are not required to post!
This thread will be open indeffinitely, and all current owners of Liatris cubs will be contacted to inform them of this option.

Thank you for your understanding!

 

Post HERE to receive your rerolls, please only post one breeding per comment!

Form:
**Breeding**: [here]
**Cub Numbers**: [exclude any who are already uploaded, or who you don't want rerolled]

The Wanderer Slot Raffle Season 3

Posted 3 years ago :: Last edited 1 year ago by IIIXKitsuneXIII

The Wanderers

[DA Journal Version]

    A pack of young adult ketucari has recently been spotted roaming the continents, seeking to explore, learn, and socialize wherever they go. Calling themselves the Wanderers, their aim to experience all walks of life may cause their paths to cross with your very own ketucari! 

Current Wanderers

 


 

Every month, the group will be raffling off one slot to each of the above ketucari!

Bullet; White There are no restrictions on the usage of these slots.

Bullet; White Each slot also comes with a "built in" Sundisk of Nyssa, so that you may breed them with a male or female ketucari. They also do not require a litter guard.

Bullet; White You may enter once per ketucari, but you may only win one Wanderer slot total for the month.

Bullet; White Wanderers may be bred together if you happen to collect more than one slot over the course of a few months.

How to Enter

Bullet; White Simply create a piece that meets our minimum Group Submission Requirements showing one of your ketucari interacting with the Wanderer who's slot you would like to win! Collaborations are allowed, but in order to count for all involved parties, each must have a ketucari present in the piece.

Bullet; White Only one Wanderer may be included per piece (ie, you cannot depict all six in one piece and use it as an entry for all of them). However, if collaborating pieces, more than one Wanderer may be included at a rate of One Per Person. However each player may only use one piece to enter for one Wanderer.
-i.e. Players 1, 2 and 3 collab on a piece with Manghild, Liatris, and Hen'ri. Player 1 can use the piece to enter for Manghild, Liatris, or Hen'ri, but not all three. Player 2 can do the same, as well as Player 3.
 
Bullet; White Remember that until they're raffled off, Wanderers are group owned. R rated entries and entries that are found to be disrespectful to either the Wanderer or any real life person, collective group of people, or culture, can be refused and rejected. They're allowed to be portrayed as creepy, or as villains if you like, but they Must be portrayed with respect, if only for the sake of the future owners.


Going forward, we will be rejecting entries that we feel cross the line into disrespecting the character.
This mostly applies to literature, as it's harder to have blatant disrespect in visual mediums. However, as a bit of a rubric for the sorts of things that might ping as disrespectful:

-Non-spoken lines making fun of the character (such as calling them "gross")
-high number of "in character" or spoken lines making fun of the character
-calling them "it" in a way that deprives the character of personhood
-entries that feel like they were written from a place of Disliking the character (we understand this is subjective, and other factors will be looked at)
-entries using the character as a mouthpiece for any sorts of views that deny other characters (or any people, groups of people, or cultures) personhood and basic dignity

 
Bullet; White There will be up to 6 total winners, labelled 1-6. Winners will be asked to list the Wanderers they want in order of preference based on which number they have and who they put in entries for (you cannot put in a Livia entry and win Fionn, for example, but if you only entered for Bun you get priority on Bun).
-i.e. if you are the only person to put in an entry on both Manghild and Liatris, you may choose which slot you would prefer to get, instead of receiving Liatris by default.

Bullet; White You may include multiple entries in one comment.

Bullet; White Comment your entry here:

 


 

Yearly Import Raffle
-CURRENTLY OPEN-

 

Each year, the Wanderers will retire from their journey and seek a permanent residence as new pack members take their place. That means they could even end up with you!


Before we get started we need to establish a few things, however. As the Wanderers are not just fancy imports but characters you all have been developing through the year, we want to make the ownership rules clear.


Bullet; White Wanderers may not be redesigned. Tokens may be added if applicable, and accessories, Elemental Blessings, and new backgrounds can be added, but the actual character cannot be redesigned.

Bullet; White Wanderers may Not be resold for USD.

Bullet; White No Deceasing the import. If you don't want them, gift/trade them to someone else or give them back to the group. Imports returned to the group will not be re-raffled without your approval/

Bullet; White The New Owner may Not change their Wanderer's Attunement without use of the Attunement Shift item.

Bullet; White The New Owner will need to complete their Wanderer's Breeding Eligibility. Their Breeding Comment will be "locked" before they are transferred to their new owner. Slots written by the Matriarchs-Haunt account will not count against the Wanderer's used or total Slots.

Bullet; White The new Owner must be aware that their Wanderer will not keep their built in Guardian or Sun Disk.

Bullet; White If a Wanderer is somehow Unclaimed it will remain group-owned as a starter.

Bullet; White The New Owner must be aware that their Wanderer will maintain their "Starter" status and be added to lineages as needed.

With that established, here is how

 


How to Enter
-CURRENTLY OPEN-


Bullet; White As with the Slot Raffle, you must create a piece that meets our minimum Group Submission Requirements showing one of your ketucari interacting with the Wanderer who's slot you would like to win! THESE PIECES MAY BE COMMISSIONED. Commissioned entries may be used by both Commissioner and Commissionee as long as each has a ket present in the piece. Collaborations are allowed, but in order to count for all involved parties, each must have a ketucari present in the piece.

Bullet; White UNLIKE with the Slots, you may include up to 3 Wanderers in an entry and it will count for all of them.

Bullet; White There will be up to 6 total winners, labelled 1-6. Winners will be asked to list the Wanderers they want in order of preference based on which number they have and who they put in entries for (you cannot put in a Haze entry and win Free, for example, but if you only entered for Haze you get priority on Haze).

Bullet; White Comment your entry here: >CURRENTLY OPEN<

Current Wanderers are due to be adopted out on March 1st, 2023

Matchmaking 2023

Animated Pink Heart Divider by Gasara

Welcome to our February Matchmaking Event! In recognition of Valentines day, we will be doing randomly paired litters with your ketucari, which will give each of you a surprise cub! You will have from February 1 - February 14 to submit your ketucari to the breeding pool. The event will close after two weeks and admins will use RNG to pair the ketucari and roll your litters!

IF you don't have anyone to ship your ketucari with or don't see your ketucari as the romantic kind we have a few starter pairs you can doodle instead!
 
Then include a link to one of your ketucari to be used in the event! It does not have to be one of the ketucari depicted in your work.

Raid Incoming! And A New Quest!

Posted 1 year ago :: Last edited 1 year ago by Matriarchs-Haunt

The Plains of Messus have reached the threshold of 250 adventures, signaling it’s time for a raid! To give everyone time to prepare for the event, and do WaLoS in April, we will be holding the Plains of Messus raid in May. Until the end of the raid, the zone will remain closed, meaning no adventures or battles may be submitted in the Plains of Messus at this time.

Additionally, the Harbinger titles this time go to Evermore KT-1638, Feel It Still KT-2453, and Saturn KT-1255, for the following piece! Anarchisme and ASimpleMoon, redeem at Titles and How to Earn Them!

 

NEW QUEST!

Effective immediately, a new quest is available over on Elder Island!

As of now, you can take Renowned ketucari and give them a full-body makeover by changing their feather type!
As with The Inner You this quest costs stats and sacred items, but it takes fewer steps other than reaching Renowned.

We hope everyone enjoys it =3

Reference Image Thread

Posted 1 year ago :: Last edited 1 year ago by Matriarchs-Haunt

Hey everybody!

As folks in the Discord know, Chromata ketucari have had updates to their images so that their alternate palette is available right here on ketucari.com
And we realized that if we could do that, we could also host Shift forms and additional reference images on site for everyone!

Down below you will find forms and threads for different kinds of alternate forms or references.
This is OPT IN, except for Chromata alts we will not host your images here by default. From here forward however, places like the Hoard and WaLoS threads will ask if you want the alternate image hosted on site.

When using this thread we ask that you provide a downloadable copy of the reference image, or images, for your ketucari.
Threads will be created shortly. Thank you for your time and patience.

This News Post is _NOT_ to be used to _Add_ Shift forms to your ketucari. At this time that is still done through the Hoard.

Threads:
Humanoid/Animal Shift Forms (Acquired from Darhaskos's Talismans, Small Flip Coins, and the Annual "What a Load of Shift" events)
God/Mythical Shift Forms (Acquired through Large Flip Coins and occasionally raffled kets)
Itemless Reference Images
"Other Side" reference images (subject to very light design approval: essentially if nothing is glaringly illegal it's probably fine)
Unofficial reference images

Pre-Sale Announcement

Hello Everyone!

We are planning a group fundraiser to pay for things like the Haunt's Core, Super Group, and our website's server hosting. Any extra made by the sale will be used for group improvemet.

The Planned time of this Fundraiser is March/April.

The Sale and prices will be identical to the Flash Sale [https://ketucari.com/news/34.flash-fundraiser] from a few months ago, and barring any other admin emergencies will likely be the last Group sale for a While.

More details will be made available closer to the sale, but this is just to let everyone know so that we don't blind-side you all! We hope to see you there!

Solstice Festival (12 Days of Gifting)

Posted 1 year ago :: Last edited 1 year ago by IIIXKitsuneXIII

WELCOME TO THE SOLSTICE FESTIVAL!

 

(Kaur is mad about festivity by Anarchisme)
Once more Suadriga emerges from the far north to bring joy and merriment to those who have survived another year.
And this time, he brought a Feast!

However, to partake in the feast, you must do well unto your neighbor! What does that mean?
Gifts.

So many Gifts.

For Twelve Days, he will be handing out presents.

You may enter for each present only once, and only on the day that it is being offered.

How do you receive a gift?
By giving one!

Daily Solstice Festival

Gifting

The requirements are simple!

Your minimum requirements are a colored headshot OR 100 words.
The catch? The ketucari CANNOT belong to you. No using Co-owns to get around this.

Your headshots may be sketchy, you may INCLUDE your own ketucari, but the focus should be on the recipient.
To account for this, we asked the lovely Draginraptor to fix up our Gift Art settings! They are now fully searchable, gift writing settings are now actually visible, and you can now set your gift setting en-masse if you want specific default settings!

There's one more catch to your gifts, however, in the spirit of trying to include everyone, and that is: You CANNOT gift to the same person two days in a row.
If you want to spoil your bestie rotten, that's fine! But every other day you have to share the love.
You may also only gift to a Starter once (unless additional Starters are Player-Owned Wanderers).

That said, our community has gotten scattered since Deviant Art started to pull its bullcrap. As such, this will be our FIRST event hosted through the site.
We have a wonderful new gallery feature. If you use it, please make sure you submit to the Winter gallery!
For anyone hosting their images outside of the site gallery, Please do be sure to share your art on [THIS THREAD] to ensure your recipient sees it!

7 Days of Trick or Treating II

Posted 2 years ago :: Last edited 2 years ago by Anarchie
Hello and welcome to a small Halloween event! It's back from last year!
Each day, a prompt will appear on this journal with a small prize for its completion! Prompts for this event will require just a headshot sketch/100 word lit entry! There will not be an additional prize for completing all 7 days, so don't worry if you miss one! However, you will only be able to complete each day's prompt on that day! Some prompts will be returning from last year, and most if not all prizes will be returning!
Check the linked journal each day for the daily prompt!
Have a happy, safe, and haunted end of your October! Have fun!
Each prompt will show up at midnight pacific time! The second prompt will show up on Wednesday - the first prompt has appeared early to give folks a bit of extra time to know this is here!
--
Additionally, for some more creepy fun, we've got a new eerie-looking jaw type up on all available builds including Ketixi!
 
Eldritch Jaw
 

It's called the Eldritch jaw, and it comes with some lovely hanging tendrils and a little eye! For 3 months, as long as you're not changing anything else about the design, you can change your Ketucari's jaw type to Eldritch for free (without a minor redesign token needed)!
