Revision as of 22:46, 20 January 2024

You lie down, letting the moon bask your muzzle in its blue light. Closing your eyes, you begin to doze off, feeling your body slowly relaxing. You start to feel as though you're falling down, losing your grasp on gravity with the ground crumbling away beneath your body. With a startled gasp, you open your eyes, looking at everything around you. You feel hazy, and everything appears to be covered in blue fog, glowing lights, and dissolving darkness. Are you dreaming? What is this mystical world? [1]



The Lunar Event is a recurring mini-event taking place every month! The event begins at 00:00 on the third Friday of every month, and ends at 23:59 on the following Thursday.


Event Basics

The Lunar Event focuses around exploring and battling in a special, new Dreamlands explore location. During night time in Wolvden, players can access the Dreamlands through the Events or Explore pages, and enjoy event-exclusive encounters in all biomes.


Unlike monthly events, the Lunar Event does not have community goals or tiers to unlock—instead, all event content is available immediately and throughout the whole event.


Lunar Tears are the currency collectable and useable throughout the event, and can be gained through exploring and battling in the Dreamlands. In order to explore in the Dreamlands, you must expend Lunar Essence, which can be gathered in regular explore.

Schedule

The Lunar Event is a recurring event that lasts for one week every month. The event begins at 00:00 on the third Friday of every month, and ends at 23:59 on the following Thursday.

This event will occur simultaneously with month-long events. For example, during the month of November, the Lunar Event will occur on the third Friday alongside the Coigreach event - neither event will be interrupted or paused during this time, and players will be able to experience both events together.

Special Lunar Events

The Lunar Event has a unique method of releasing applicators, which you can learn more about in the #Applicators section of this page. Simply, applicators are only available for one or two months before they're retired from the event shop and replaced with new applicators. Luckily, there is a way to get old applicators you might have missed out on!


Sometimes, when a rare, moon-related event occurs in real life (life a blue moon or lunar eclipse), almost all previous applicators will appear in the Lunar Shoppe all at once!


Every base, marking, and accent applicator released in all previous, non-Special events will be available to purchase again for the same price they originally debuted at. Note that there is one exception to this rule-the Total Eclipse eye applicator is extra special, and will only return when the special Lunar Event is total lunar eclipse-themed.


Each of these special events has brought limited-time decors and/or backgrounds which were only available for that month. These items may return in the future for additional special events. It has also been teased that special Lunar Variant applicators will be released with these rare events sometime in the future.


The Dreamlands

The Lunar Dreamlands are a special new explore map full of event encounters.


You can only access this map during night time on Wolvden while the Lunar Event is occurring. Note that the current server time and your own device's time do not affect your access to the Dreamlands.


You can view what time of day it is on Wolvden on the sidebar. This moon indicates that it is currently night time and the Dreamlands will be accessible.


The time of day on Wolvden cycles every 30-100 minutes and the length of each time of day depends on the current season. When it's Winter on Wolvden, nights are longer and days are shorter. When it's Summer, days are longer and nights are shorter. During Spring and Autumn, the times of day are equal in length. You can see how long there is until the next time of day change by visiting the Cooldowns page, which you can find under your Username menu at the top of the website.


Click on this banner on the Events page to visit the Dreamlands during the night time!


Once it's night time, you can visit the Events page to access the Dreamlands. You will be able to find a Fall Asleep button on any explore page which will take you there, as well!


Click on this "Fall Asleep..." button on an Explore page to visit the Dreamlands during the night time!


Lunar Essence

In order to explore in the Dreamlands, you must collect Lunar Essence (LE). Taking one explore step in the Dreamlands requires 1 Lunar Essence. So, if you have 50 Lunar Essence, you will be able to take 50 steps in the Dreamlands.


This Lunar Essence bar appears with your wolf's stats while you're in the Dreamlands


Lunar Essence can be gathered while exploring normally during dawn, day, or dusk. It cannot be obtained while exploring in the night time.


Each explore step during the right times of day has a chance of dropping 3 to 5 LE. All biomes have an equal chance of dropping Lunar Essence-you do not have a higher chance of getting essence in your home biome or in challenging biomes.


Every day, you can earn up to 100 Lunar Essence from exploring. You can keep track of how much you've collected with the indicator on the Events page.


This Lunar Essence bar on the Events page displays how much Lunar Essence you currently have. Beneath the progress bar, you can see how much Lunar Essence you've collected for the day, out of the total possible 100.


Every rollover, you will be given an extra 25 Lunar Essence. This does not count towards your 100 daily total, meaning you can use a grand total of 125 Lunar Essence every day. This is in terms of real life days/rollovers, not Wolvden days. It's important to keep in mind that you will only be granted the full 25 Lunar Essence if you do not have more than 75 Lunar Essence on hand. If you have 85 Lunar Essence going into rollover, for example, you will only get a 15 LE rollover bonus instead of 25.


In the case that you do not use all of your Lunar Essence one day or one event, it will carry between rollovers and between events.


Lunar Tears

Lunar Tears (LT) are the event's main currency, used to purchase items from the event shoppe. Lunar Tears are collected by exploring in the Dreamlands at night using Lunar Essence. Every encounter in the Dreamlands will provide the opportunity to gain at least one Lunar Tear, and you are also awarded some Lunar Tears when you win battles in the Dreamlands.


The best way to earn Lunar Tears during the event is to battle every opponent you come across in the Dreamlands, as each enemy will drop 1 or 2 Tears depending on their level. Battling in the Dreamlands does not expend any extra Essence.


The maximum amount of Lunar Tears that one can earn in one day is 250, though this requires perfect luck and is highly improbable.


You can see how many Lunar Tears you currently have by visiting the Event Shoppe or checking your event currency card in the website's sidebar. You can see how many Lunar Tears you have while the event isn't running by clicking on your SC or GC amounts to go to your currency log.


Dreamlands Visuals

Once you've fallen asleep, you will be taken to an alternate, but familiar, version of the explore map. The biomes you'll be able to explore remain the same-you cannot access any lunar biome which you do not have access to in regular explore-but they will all have special backgrounds and brand new encounters! If your scout is actively rescouting a biome, it is also unavailable in the Dreamlands until your scout returns.


You'll notice while exploring in the Dreamlands that your explore UI will have some fancy new accents! This is a purely aesthetic change, and you can still access your Healing Salves through the medicine pouch underneath the Map button. Like in regular explore, the explore eyes will match your lead wolf's!

Lore & Easter Eggs

This event's lore is first introduced in the Lunar Event News post. The Lunar Dreamlands are full of unique creatures, characters, and species, each with their own distinct personalities and traits. The lore is invented completely by the developers, not based on any real-world mythology.


The developers intend to build upon the world slowly, thought it's always intended to be a background to the player's own stories, lore, and ideas! While the Dreamlands currently doesn't have a storyline or occurrences for the player to follow, through encounters it's easy to see how the world reacts to you, how it behaves when you aren't around, and how the local creatures function and face their own struggles.


There's a very wide range of creatures local to the Dreamlands, from those which look almost normal, to others which possess twisted and unique qualities. All creatures require essence to survive, and the moon's influence on them is strong.


Creatures

Pherris

Pherris creatures inhabit the northern areas of the world, and they have aggressive temperaments. Their fur is long to fight the cold and a reddish color based on iron, which they specialize in smithing by using lunar essence. It's not difficult to find evidence of the Pherris' smithing throughout the Dreamlands. The Pherris venture into the Volukros territory to claim more land, fit with battle paints and their own creatures. Per the developers, their name derives from the English word for "iron" or "ruddy."



Volukros

Volukros creatures are masters of stealth, covered in feathered growths and darker tones to help them blend in with the environment. They inhabit the warm, southern parts of the world. Their search for lunar essence often puts them at odds with the Pherris, as their ventures lead them to the more northern territories. The Volukros name was inspired by French words for "flying" and "plunder".



Cnitharian

Cnitharian creatures are visually distinct with their jellyfish-like tendrils, glowing patterns of light, and other various mutations. The Cnitharian are peaceful and neutral, inhabiting all of the Lunar Dreamlands alongside the Pherris and Volukros. They specialize in trading, music, and dancing, and you will often come across Cnitharian creatures interested in offering their wares. In fact, the shopkeepers for the event are Cnitharian themselves! Their name was derived from the Latin name for the phylum of jellyfish that inspired the designs.



Easter Eggs

In addition to established lore, the Lunar Event has commonly been used to emphasize some Wolvden community Easter Eggs.


Nobaby


Nobaby first appeared during Wolvden beta testing, when one tester ran into a befriendable pup while exploring. Pups aren't supposed to be befriendable -- it seems as though the wolf that was meant to be in the pup's place did not load correctly, thus defaulting to the pup stage and brown base. During testing, this befriended pup was affectionately referred to as "Broken".



Nobaby popped up again during Wolvden Early Access, when many more users befriended these broken puppies. It was during this time that they gained the name 'Nobaby', as well as their large fanbase. After the bug that caused this was fixed, all broken puppies were wiped.


Since Nobaby's first appearance, she's popped up occasionally but the bugs are always fixed very quickly and all Nobabys wiped from the game.


The Nobaby lunar event encounter was inspired in part by this comic page by Kiaz (#7002), as stated by Wolvden head artist Xylax in this post.


A memorial and discussion post regarding Nobaby can be found here. Additionally, if you look closely in this news post, you might be able to make out Nobaby haunting the new announcements.


Beta Testing Groups

Some users speculate that there are lunar battle encounters for every testing group that was formed during beta testing. This theory is supported by the fact that there are porcupine and beaver encounters, which don't exist normally outside the event. Each testing team and the encounter that may be associated with them are listed below.


Alligators

Bears

Beavers

Elk

Porcupines

Pronghorns

Whitetails


Grouse House Lunar Grouse


Hold on... that sounds familiar! The lunar grouse encounter or 'Grouse House' encounter is simply an encounter of a grouse building a house appropriate for a grouse. The encounter is based on us, a small community of data collectors and guide makers, that has been around since Wolvden's private beta!

Event-Exclusive Explore Encounters

Encounters in Every Biome

A faint scent of something special is right down this slope...
DigYou dig into the ground excitedly. Underneath the disturbed ground, you find something cool!ONE of the below possibilities

+1 Lunar Tear
+1 Medicine: Healing Salve
+1 Charcoal
+1 Gnawing Hoof
+5 Silver Cones


You feel dizzy, perhaps from inhaling too much lunar essence. When you lie down, your body twitches like you're waking up from a dream, but you're still awake.
ShakeYou try to shake off this weird feeling. Suddenly, you immediately feel better -- your body is fully refreshed with energy. You have no idea where this came from, but you're not complaining!+10 HP
You try to shake off this weird feeling. Suddenly, you immediately feel better -- your body is fully refreshed with energy. You have no idea where this came from, but you're not complaining!+1 Lunar Tear


You lift your head to catch a scent of something familiar in this blue world. You recognise something among the bitter mushroom spores.
Tasty smell You knew that you recognised this scent! It leads you right to a deep hole, which was apparently the last thing this poor critter experienced. You drag it out, revealing a shiny spark, almost completely covered by dirt. +1 Lunar Tear
+1 Muskrat Carcass
Almost certain that you smell a scent from your world, you head towards a small pile of rocks. The dirt surrounding it is freshly dug. You check it out, only to reveal a shiny spark.+1 Lunar Tear
Exciting smell You let your senses lead you. The scent is sharp, you surely won't lose it! You notice a magpie on the tree nearby. This bird isn't glowing, which further encourages you to chase it. Unfortunately, the bird is faster than you are, and it flies away as you jump after it. Thankfully, it lost something in its rush. +1
+1 Magpie Feather
You let your senses lead you. The scent is sharp—you surely won't lose it! Focused and eager, you reach the river bank. This is where the scent gets noticeably weaker. Whoever was here before has either disappeared or disguised their scent perfectly. You take a moment to rest, then notice a shiny spark in the wet mud.+1 Lunar Tear
Smell of big risk You focus on the scent, following it like the perfect hunter you are. When you reach its source, you notice a pack of local wolves gathering around a dead tree. You can't see nor hear what they're hiding there, but you instinctively feel something strong that tells you to wait. The pack eventually leaves the area, but, to your frustration, they're still close nearby. They can spot you if you're not too cautious. You sneak silently to the dead tree and discover a huge treasure! You wish you could take all of it, but you don't have much time, and you can hear paws approaching behind you. Hurry! +2 Lunar Tears
You follow the scent with excitement. Your sense are so perfectly sharp, and you feel your hackles rising. You're ready for any challenge! Finally, you see the source of the scent, understanding now why it was so familiar. It's another wolf, but it doesn't seem friendly. It claims this area to be its territory. You're chased away aggressively, incurring a bite from the hostile wolf. After taking some time to rest, you sniff around and find a shiny spark in the dirt. At least something good is happening to you now! +1 Lunar Tear
-2 HP
You catch a scent so strong and unique that you instantly start to follow it. Your excitement grows as you feel yourself getting closer! In the distance, you notice an unguarded pile of shiny sparks. It's very rare to see so many in one spot. Well, it won't be abandoned for long! As you come closer, almost touching the treasure, you feel a sharp, unbearable pain on your back. A furious eagle attacks you from the air and doesn't stop, even after you start running as fast as you physically can. Eventually, you manage to hide, but you'll need time to heal your wound. You managed to steal only one object. It wasn't worth it! +1 Lunar Tear
-5 HP


Unidentified glowing orbs are circling around you. You feel uneasy.
Run away! You freeze in fear. These orbs are seriously eerie, and you cannot make out what they are. They seem to be the most lunar thing you've witnessed here so far, to the point that you suspect they may have come from the moon itself! They suddenly stop, and you twitch, worried that they may be planning something. Nope. You curl your tail between your legs and run like hell, until you drop among some glowing flowers, mushrooms, cones, and rocks. +1 Lunar Tear
+2 Silver Cones
These glowing orbs are making you seriously uneasy. Your instinct is sending all kinds of alarms through your body, which cause you to turn around and run! On your rather accidental path, you trip over something and chip a bit of it off. Thankfully, it wasn't your tooth! +1 Lunar Tear
-1 HP
Dance in circles You perk your ears. These orbs seem to be friendly, otherwise they would have already made a move... right? They seem so in-tune with this world, and you wonder if they may even be influencing it. You bark and bow playfully. They continue to follow you, so you begin to dance, twirl, and hop on your hind legs! You give them the performance of the week, and the orbs dance with you, pulsating in a rhythm and doing their own synchronised moves. This is amazing! One of them begins to spark and falls suddenly to the ground. The rest of the orbs immediately fly away to the night sky. You curiously lower your head to check out the fallen orb. Oh... Was it a gift? +1
Pounce They're probably just some insects or local critters. Nothing unusual. You hope. You jump around and try to grab one with your teeth... Oh! You did it! It burns your tongue a bit, so you spit it out. It rolls onto the ground, then stops moving completely. So, this is what the orbs turn into? What's that next to it? +2 Lunar Tears
+1 Lucky Foot
-2 HP
You make calculated jumps, considering the orbs to be your prey. These local critters take many creative shapes and forms, so this one shouldn't be any different... You manage to strike one down! You cock your head to the side in confusion. How do seemingly-alive orbs turn into these? +1 Lunar Tear


Flickering dust falls from the sky. Tiny, blue, smoky trails resemble rain in slow motion.
Stick out your tongue This is always a fun activity in the snow and rain. You aren't sure what to expect from the glowing dust, but you stick your tongue out anyway. The bitter, unpleasant taste disappoints you greatly. Seems like it's better to watch the scene instead! +1 Lunar Tear
+1 Glowing Spores
Gather dust on your back The glowing dust falls slowly and accumulates on everything around you. Your fur gains a blueish shine to it, making you feel like a part of this strange world. Soon, it looks almost like the night sky is being reflected on the ground. Just before you decide to walk away, you notice something on the ground with a stronger shine than the surrounding dust. +1
+2 HP


Heavy wind picks up the lunar essence from the ground and paints beautiful swirls in the air with it.
Chase You're in a playful mood, jumping in excitement and chasing after the shimmering particles. One of them seems heavier than the others, and it slowly lands on your nose. You know you should be tired after all of your strenuous activity, but, to your surprise, you're more energised than ever! +1 Lunar Tear
+3 HP
You're in a playful mood, jumping in excitement and chasing after the shimmering particles. One of them seems heavier than the others, and it slowly lands on your nose. +1 Lunar Tear


Rain isn't that unusual, but this kind of rain... You notice the droplets are glowing. The tiny splashes spread lunar essence on the ground.
Splash around! You joyfully run across the wet ground, trying to catch the glowing droplets. Your paws and fur are coated in lunar essence. You notice your reflection in a nearby puddle, and you have to admit, you're seriously attractive with this blue shine. You wish you could try this look out on the wolves from your own world. Suddenly, you see a shine at the bottom of the puddle. +1 Lunar Tear
You run across the wet ground, coating your paws in lunar essence. You were having a good time jumping around, until you stepped on a sharp rock. Ouch. Maybe you're too old for this puppy fun. Your paw hurts, but it's nothing serious. As you walk away to rest, you notice a shine at the bottom of the nearest puddle. +1 Lunar Tear
-1 HP
You run across the wet ground, coating your paws in lunar essence. You jump from one tiny puddle to the next, feeling like a puppy again! The rain continues to fall. It's pleasantly chilly and refreshing. The glow within one puddle seems to be stronger than the others. You find something at the bottom! +1 Lunar Tear
+2 HP


This phenomenon seems... new to you. Lunar essence is everywhere in this world, but this is the first time you've seen it sparkle and emit sizzling sounds. Beautiful and unknown, it attracts you to it in an instant.
Cover yourself in 2 Lunar Oil* It might be a strange idea, but you'll never know what happens unless you try! You cover your fur with lunar oil, interested to see if it has any effect when it comes into contact with the sparks. It seems your jut feeling was right! These strange sparks are full of energy, which is now filling your body and refreshing you with a funny, tingling sensation. +1 Lunar Tear
+40% energy
Run through Mesmerised by the sight, you decide to run among the sparks, letting your fur catch a few of them. A tingling and pinching sensation runs under your skin. It doesn't feel very pleasant, but you're refreshed afterward. You know much better ways to feel energised, but this method worked very fast! +1 Lunar Tear
+10% energy
You struggle with your decision, but finally decide to run through the sparks long enough to catch some of them on your back. At first, it's fun, and the tingling sensation was nice to begin with, but it quickly turned rather painful. Best to run now before more of them land on your fur! With a short whine, you scurry off, making sure there's no trace left of the sparks on your body. Never doing that again! +1 Lunar Tear
-5 HP
* This option will only appear if you have at least 2x Lunar Oil in your Hoard


You accidentally step on some local mushrooms, releasing a large spore cloud. It may be dangerous!
Use Cough Cure* Thankfully, you prepared for such a situation. You take the cure out as soon as you feel the urge to cough. The spore cloud is really dense, but through the cloud, you manage to spot something among the mushrooms. You quickly snatch the object, then run out of the spore cloud, taking deep breaths now that you're safe. Well, safer than you were before, anyway. +1 Lunar Tear
+1 Medicine: Rich Healing Salve
Hold your breath Unfortunately, you don't have anything that would help in a situation like this, so the only thing you can do is hold your breath. You find one shiny spark within the spore cloud, but there's no further time to inspect the area any longer. Even if there's something very interesting around the mushrooms, you're not taking any chances with those spores in your current state. +1 Lunar Tear
* This option will only appear if you have at least 1x Medicine: Cough Cure in your Hoard


The flecks of snow tend to reflect the blue glow of this land, but this snow seems to have an extra sparkle to it. You notice the snowflakes are glowing with lunar essence frozen within them!
Mlem You don't care if anyone's watching, you'll do what you want! You stick your tongue out to catch some blueish snowflakes. You feel great! The blue glow disappears as soon as the flecks touch your body and the ground, though one of the snowflakes retains its glow. Oh! It's a shiny spark that fell from the sky! +1 Lunar Tear
+3 Silver Cones
You don't care if anyone's watching, you'll do what you want! You stick your tongue out to catch some blueish snowflakes. The snow keeps falling, and you close your eyes for a moment. Someone nearby giggles, and you have the sudden urge to hide. Okay, so you do care a little bit. When you find a shiny spark on the wet ground, you forget about the awkward moment. +1 Lunar Tear


What an interesting find! It's a wolf skull, but... it doesn't appear to be lifeless. The lunar essence surrounds it, making it seem like the skull's owner is calling you from the other side.
Stare at it You're entranced by the calming light. The lunar essence pulsates gently, and it almost looks as though the skull is observing you. You've completely lost track of time—you have no clue how long it's been since you stumbled upon the skull, but you're not fussed. It's actually a surprisingly pleasant feeling. You feel very relaxed, as if you've just taken a long, refreshing nap. +1 Lunar Tear
+4 HP
Touch it You creep closer, lowering your head to take a deeper look into the skull's eyes. You wonder what would happen if you took the skull...? Would its glowing essence affect you? Ultimately, you decide to take the risk. When you pick up the skull, you notice something shiny lying under its teeth. +1 Lunar Tear
+1 Wolk Skull
You creep closer, lowering your head to take a deeper look into the skull's eyes. Somehow, the blue light looks conscious and alive. You gently touch the surface, feeling a chill running down your spine. +1 Lunar Tear


You stop to sniff around this fascinating spot. There are so many scents! This area is especially interesting. Which do you decide to check out?
Big crack You take a closer look at the crack. It's deeper than it looks, making you believe it would be a perfect hiding place. An object subtly shines at the bottom. It seems someone else discovered this spot before you did, but they didn't take everything. +1 Lunar Tear
+2-5 Silver Cones
You take a closer look at the crack. It's deeper than it looks and you think that it would make a perfect hiding place. You notice a shine at the bottom. It seems that someone else had the same thought. +1 Lunar Tear
Mossy growth You take a closer look at the mossy growth. Some of its scents are unfamiliar to you, which makes this spot even more interesting. You notice something is hidden among the leaves. Oh, it's an evening snack! When you pick it up off the ground, you catch a glimpse of something hidden between tiny pebbles. It's your lucky day! Or… night. +1 Lunar Tear
+1 Muskrat Carcass
You take a closer look at the mossy growth. Some of its scents are unfamiliar to you, which makes this spot even more interesting. You spend some time sniffing around enthusiastically, but you find nothing exciting. As you begin to turn back, you notice a subtle shine among the leaves. +1 Lunar Tear
Soft ground Instead of the rocks, you choose to focus on the soft ground. If something fell off of these rocks, it would be here for sure! Thankfully, your eyes have acclimated to the glow of this world—you nearly missed the sparkles emanating from a shiny object, well-hidden among the small pebbles. +1 Lunar Tear
+1 Mollusk Shell
Instead of the rocks, you choose to focus on the soft ground. You manage to find a small shell, but it isn't one of those strange glowing ones. Disappointment starts to creep in until the shell rattles, signifying there is something hidden within. +1 Lunar Tear


You stumble upon a very personal moment. Two Cnitharian Wolves are dancing together in the moonlight. It seems playful, but full of harmony and serenity at the same time.
Watch You're not sure if you should reveal yourself. This beautiful, harmonious dance could be a ritual. You don't know a thing about the traditions of this world, so you feel it's best not to disturb them. When the glowing wolves leave, the area becomes noticeably darker. A small, shiny spark twinkles in the grass. It seems one of the wolves may have lost it. +1 Lunar Tear
Join You hesitate for a moment, but eventually decide to join in. They are still wolves, right? Glowing and strange, but still familiar. They look surprised, but allow you to dance with them, smiling at you when you try to mimic their graceful movements. You're far from matching their harmony, but they seem to appreciate your effort regardless. Before you part ways, one of the wolves gives you something to reminder this meeting. +1 Lunar Tear
Howl You move a little closer to them and let out a long howl. In your world, every wolf understands that sound. Howls should be universal, right? It surprises you when the dancing wolves just escape without looking back. You have a feeling you've ruined something important. Before you leave, you sniff around and find a shiny spark on the ground. It seems one of the wolves may have lost it. +1 Lunar Tear


A sudden, unexpected sight has stopped you in your tracks. This baby wolf... there's something wrong with it. You're deeply unsettled by its empty gaze, but you're terrified to look away. This wolf isn't like the other creatures you've seen, and you can't find a trace of lunar essence on its plain fur. Is it phasing through the world temporarily?
Avert your gaze You look away, focusing on something on the ground. After a pause, you take a nervous peek back. There is no baby anymore. Only you and the acorns, glistening in the moonlight. Alone. +2 Lunar Tears
+5 Acorns
You hesitate for a moment, quickly looking away from the wolf in an attempt to gather your thoughts. A subtle movement in the corner of your eye catches your attention, causing you to glance back. There is no baby anymore. No reward
Keep staring You stare back, straightening your posture, determined to assert your dominance over this spooky situation. The fur along your spine stiffens. You slowly puff up, completely stressed as you stare right into the void. Tears well in your eyes, but you can't look away. Suddenly, you sneeze loudly and repeatedly—but instead of spewing slobber, lunar essence is expelled from your mouth. You notice the baby is gone. Who startled who? +1 Lunar Tear
Offer shelter You gather yourself and take a tentative step forward. It's just a baby, after all... right? You ask it where its parents are, or if it needs a temporary shelter. The closer you get, the more the world around you shifts and distorts. You're certain you started off just a few feet away from the wolf, but now... you're dozens of feet away, back up the path, and the wolf is staring straight at you from afar. Confused and upset, you try to run towards it, but end up tripping over exposed roots, and you fall, and fall, and fall... until you wake up on an empty path. It's time to explore. +1 Lunar Tear


You encounter two wolves traversing this world, much like you are. They seem to have gotten into a quarrel. Lunar essence is charging between them!
Rush in barking You puff up and trot between the wolves, then begin to bark at them. It's time to snap out of it! This negative energy could turn into a serious nightmare. The wolves huff and groan, but they do eventually part ways, leaving some charged sparks behind. +1 Lunar Tear
You rush between the wolves, barking angrily! This is no place for negative energy, it's so beautiful and special! There's enough food and shiny things for everyone! The wolves snap at you, it's none of your business what happened between them! All three of you bark at each other until the other guys roll off into the bushes, fighting. Whatever they left, is yours. +1 Lunar Tear
+2 Silver Cones
Calm them down You approach the wolves and ask them what the problem is. At first, they seem snappy, but they eventually explain the situation. You offer a solution that may not benefit them both, but it's a solution that would make everyone content. They seem pleased and offer a gift of gratitude! +1 Lunar Tear
You shake your head and wedge yourself between them, explaining calmly that there is no time to waste. This place is special and offers so much. There is no territory to claim, no den to protect -- it's a great opportunity to explore and learn about the world. The wolves whine a bit, but eventually agree, and they decide whatever they were fighting over should be yours. +1 Lunar Tear
+2 Silver Cones


You spot a familiar face in this strange world - it's Tala! She watches you for a moment, then chuckles gently, which makes you feel more than a little uneasy. Is it really her?
Call her You're not sure if it's the real Tala. Even though she has been your guide since the very beginning, it feels like it's been forever since you've seen her. Maybe she knows more about this land? You move closer to her and call her over with excitement. Tala stares at you in complete silence, standing as still as a rock... or a ghost. You call her once more, but within the blink of an eye, she disappears completely without warning. Shocked, confused, and curious, you decide to check the spot she was standing on. You find a shiny spark in the dirt... and a coyote tail. Is someone trying to pull a prank on you? Or are their intentions more sinister? +1 Lunar Tear
+1 Coyote Tail
You didn't expect to see Tala in such a strange place, but the sight of her fills your heart with joy. You remember your first meeting with her, all of her gentle and patient explanations as you asked endless questions about the place you now call home. Is it possible that she knows more about this land, too? You call her over, but she does not move. You call Tala again, only to discover that she's... not there anymore? What?! You were staring at her this whole time, how could this happen?! You start to feel dizzy, wondering if this feeling only happens if you enter the Dreamlands too often, or if someone might be doing this to you. After you recover, you notice a shiny spark on the ground, serving as the only reminder that this was not a dream within a dream. +1 Lunar Tear
Chase her A little shocked, but mostly relieved, you wag your tail in a friendly way. Tala welcomed you and introduced everything to you at the very beginning of your journey, and you believe she's about to do the same now. Soon, you'll know all the answers! But... Tala isn't approaching. In fact, she turns back and starts to run away. No! You chase her, your eyes focused on her shape, which seems to become more and more ethereal as you approach her. You were sure this was a trick of the Dreamlands, until you notice something shiny on the ground... and a wolf tail. You feel uneasy. +1 Lunar Tear
+1 Wolf Tail
You suddenly feel overjoyed. It feels as though it has been forever since your last meeting with Tala, where you were just as lost then as you are now. You finally have a chance to ask about everything in this strange place. Tala knows the answers for sure! Why isn't she approaching you, though? You decide to move closer to the wolf, which suddenly causes her to run. Is she scared of something? Why is she running? Tala, stop! Your heart is pounding and the air around you feels heavy. No matter how fast you run, you can't seem to get any closer to her. In the blink of an eye, Tala disappears, leaving you confused. You can still pick up a faint trace of her familiar scent. A shiny spark on the ground is all you're able to find for now. +1 Lunar Tear


You notice a lone Cnitharian wolf in front of you. She kindly asks if you need any help and explains you can refresh and heal yourself with her products.
Trade 40 SC* You had enough cones to pay, and it was definitely worth it! You have no idea how it happened so quickly, but it's likely the mixtures of local herbs work here differently. A sudden wave of fresh energy makes you feel stronger and ready to travel further. You almost forget to take a shiny spark. +1 Lunar Tear
+10 HP
+10% energy
Trade 3 LT** As soon as you pay, you're given a strange mixture that looks and smells awful. Seeing your confused expression, the Cnitharian wolf laughs and explains it definitely tastes better than it looks. You hesitantly drink the mixture, finding out that she's right! The taste isn't bad, but the feeling that comes after is glorious. You've never felt so rejuvenated! +1 Lunar Tear

It takes a while for you to realise why this wolf seems so familiar... Oh! Now you recognise her! This is a shopkeeper you occasionally buy from! She seems preoccupied, looking for interesting items to sell, but she still greets you with a warm smile that shows she recognises you as well.
Help out Without thinking twice, you decide to help, joining the shopkeeper in her task. Your assistance was a success! You helped to find more items than she had initially planned for the day. She seems relieved and mentions that you've saved a lot of her time. You don't expect anything in return for your service, but the shopkeeper insists you take a small gift anyway. +1 Lunar Tear
+1 Cnitharian Tuggy Tendril
You join the shopkeeper in her task without hesitation. Two excellent noses and trained eyes shortened the otherwise tiring job significantly, and you managed to find a lot of interesting items that could be sold soon. The grateful shopkeeper invites you back to her shop, where a small gift waits for you. +1 Lunar Tear
+1 Acorn


A gentle glow on a nearby hill catches your attention. After taking a few steps in its direction, you spot the ladies from the Lunar Shoppe chilling together in a blossoming grass patch. It seems they're taking some downtime to relax.
Say hello You don't want to bother the couple and had only planned on greeting them from afar, but they invite you to join them for a while. Their company is great, and you all laugh together as if you've known each other forever. It was a nice new experience to talk with them outside of their shop, and you wonder if you could become good friends with them in the future, provided there are more opportunities to chill out with this couple again. When you're about to leave, one of the ladies shows you a recipe she was planning to sell, and tells you to take it with you if you happen to be interested in it. +1 Lunar Tear
+1 Lunar Recipe*
They both work so hard every day, they probably don't have many opportunities to rest like this. You decide it's best to refrain from bothering them, though you do give a short greeting from afar before turning back to your path. +1 Lunar Tear
Observe You first thought is to come closer and greet the couple, but you stop midway. They probably don't get a lot of time like this to themselves, and it wouldn't be nice o ruin their evening like that. You observe them from a distance instead, taking a moment for yourself to relax as well. The sight of a caring couple makes you feel calm. +1 Lunar Tear
+20% energy
While you really want to approach them and chat, you decide to stay where you are. These ladies work hard every day, so it's best to let them relax in peace. In fact, observing them makes you want to chill for a while, too. +1 Lunar Tear
+10 HP
* Two recipes are available randomly from this encounter, Cnitharian Frill Accents and Cnitharian Frill Accents [Purple]


You recognise this Cnitharian wolf from afar—this is someone you usually buy items from. She seems concerned, pacing back and forth restlessly. Upon noticing you, she nods slightly and immediately shares her worries. Her partner was supposed to arrive some time ago and has yet to show up.
Join the search party After waiting with her for a while, you decide to help look for the missing wolf. The shopkeeper agrees, and you both start sniffing around, trying to catch her partner's scent or find any possible clues. You find a shiny spark on the way, but there is no sign of any other wolf nearby. The longer it takes, the more tension you feel in the air. Suddenly, you hear a relieved sigh. The shape of a glowing wolf can be seen in the distance! Thankfully, the shopkeeper's partner was just late. +1 Lunar Tear
This information worries you as well, and you decide to stay with her to look for the lost wolf together. You start searching right away, not wasting any time at all as you hunt for even the smallest of clues. You find two shiny sparks on your search, but nothing more. Suddenly, the shopkeeper lights up upon tracking a familiar scent! Thankfully, her partner just turned out to be a little late. You promise to see them both at the shop later, then turn back to continue your journey now that your assistance is no longer needed. +2 Lunar Tears
You offer your help, which the shopkeeper accepts with relief. With another wolf, there's a chance to find her partner much faster. Tracking her down isn't easy, and you begin to feel anxious about the whole situation. Suddenly, a familiar scent appears in the air, and you spotted a glowing silhouette heading towards you from a distance. It seems she was just late, thankfully! You're ready to say goodbye, but the shopkeeper insists you go back to their shop with them to receive a small reward. +1 Lunar Tear
+1 Medicine: Healing Salve


A lonesome fox is sitting on your path. When you approach, an essence-filled mist encircles it, whipping blue veils of dust around. The fox is offering a small game of chance, which you cannot lose. You must simply pick one of the blue, glowing orbs - once you pay a fee, of course.
Offer 10 SC* You stare intensely at the orbs, but they all look the same and aren't giving away any secrets. You decide to take a specific one that looks strangely appealing to you. The fox smiles when the glow of the orb dims to reveal four shiny sparks. Extraordinary luck! You feel like you should try this out elsewhere, too - this is your night, apparently! +4 Lunar Tears
It's a tough choice. The fox coughs, hinting that you're staring at the orbs for too long, so you finally decide. Your chosen orb becomes smaller, its glow slowly dimming to reveal three shiny sparks. You're really excited and surprised. The game was worth it! +3 Lunar Tears
You need a few seconds to make your choice. The orbs are identical, but you try to look for a clue. Never mind, let's do it! Your chosen orb dims gradually, revealing two shiny sparks. It seems you were lucky today. +2 Lunar Tears
Without hesitation, you point at one of the orbs, and the fox waits a few seconds in silence. The glow dims, revealing your reward. How cool, it's a shiny spark! The more, the better. +1 Lunar Tear
I have nothing on me... The fox nods, understanding your situation. He offers you a small, shiny spark with a smile, encouraging you to come back later. Who knows what you could win. +1 Lunar Tear

This old, wise Lunar Fox is offering helpful advice on how to travel within this phasing world.
Listen It seems you've met the right creature at just the right moment. You have so many questions about this place, and the more you explore, the more you want to ask! It would be a shame to miss this opportunity, so you patiently sit down in silence and listen to the calming voice of the sage fox. It's impossible for you to comprehend all the mysteries of this world in one sitting, but you feel you've gained some essential knowledge about how to survive here. +1 Lunar Tear
+1 Medicine: Healing Salve
Refuse Automatic battle encounter with Wise Fox


A Cnitharian Fox is preparing the area and setting up a trading post to exchange goods with wolves.
Offer 5 SC* The fox looks surprised. It's probably the first time someone has offered to pay him without buying anything. You humbly explain that you're just wishing him a good start. The fox seems touched and asks you to wait for a moment. He comes back with a gift and promises to remember you when the trading post is ready. +1 Lunar Tear
+1 Rabbit Carcass
Offer Acorn** The fox looks pleased and takes the acorn with a smile. He explains there is always a high demand for them when he's trading with other creatures. He offers you something in return. You have a feeling it's worth much more than an acorn. +1 Lunar Tear
+1 Glowing Spores
+1 Stoat Carcass
Offer Help The fox accepts your help with visible relief. It's an exhausting job, but the time flies fast when you work and chat together. When the trading post is ready, the fox thanks you for your effort and promises you a discount when you visit him next time! +1 Lunar Tear

This raccoon-looking creature is scratching its ear. But... it has no ears... is it scratching a phantom itch? Or are the little Lunar Fleas bothering it?
Offer Fleas Remedy* You offer the remedy to the creature. It grabs the medicine in one swift movement. Though it's difficult to guess emotions from a skull, you could swear it looks relieved. +2 Lunar Tears
Offer Acorn** Without hesitating, the creature grabs the acorn. Even without an expression, you somehow get the feeling that it's satisfied. It gives you something in return. You may have had some doubts at the beginning, but now you're certain. It's definitely a raccoon. Apparently, their trading skills are the same no matter what world you're in. +1 Lunar Tear
+7 HP
Offer Help You ask the odd creature if you can help it in any way. The skull seems to look in your direction. In a husky, whispering voice, it expresses that unless you have some medicine or acorns, it's not in need of your help. Your gesture is appreciated, though. +1 Lunar Tear
+2 Silver Cones

Hey! This raccoon appears to be infested with fleas, but he looks quite healthy! Maybe a dose of medicine could cure him fully? Unless you know some good grooming tricks...?
Offer Fleas Remedy* You don't need to think twice—this poor creature is in need! Your den has an experienced herbalist, but this raccoon might not have such luck. It will take some time for him to heal completely, but you can see the relief on the raccoon's face straight away. You're about to leave when the raccoon asks you to wait. You can't go away with empty paws. Two shiny sparks and some oil are an unexpected reward. You part ways with a smile. +2 Lunar Tears
+1 Lunar Oil
Groom it Unfortunately, you don't have any medicine that would help in this case, but you don't want to leave the raccoon in this state. You do what you can and groom him carefully. Maybe it won't heal him, but you gave him a moment of relief. Before you part ways, the raccoon places a shiny spark in front of you. You hope he'll find a cure soon. +1 Lunar Tear
* This option will only appear if you have at least 1x Medicine: Fleas Remedy in your Hoard


Jellyfish-like Cnitharian Mice are gathering supplies for the time when lunar essence is more scarce.
Steal You observe the mice for a moment. They're very busy and organised, but you notice there are times when no one is guarding the supplies. Who wouldn't take such an opportunity? +1 Lunar Tear
+1 Acorn
You observe the mice for a moment. They're very busy and organised, but you notice there are times when no one is guarding the supplies. You managed to get close, but it took you too long, and you were noticed. You're surprised at how furiously these little critters will fight for their goods! You were bitten once or twice, but you escaped with a trophy! +1 Lunar Tear
-1 HP
Help You feel a sudden hint of sympathy. Everyone is just trying to survive, no matter the place nor dimension. The mice don't trust you at first, but they are moved by your honest intentions and slowly get used to your presence. You don't want anything in return for helping them, but they insist! +1 Lunar Tear
+1 Acorn
You feel a sudden hint of sympathy. Everyone is just trying to survive, no matter the place nor dimension. You do your best to help, but you're too big for their tiny piles of supplies.

In the distance, lights dance and swirl across the hills. As the source of light moves closer, you see they are in fact glowing moths, spreading lunar dust across the lands.
Chase You dart between the moths, trying to chase and catch them. With every pounce, you feel as though you could fly away at any second! At the end, you roll down from a hill, a little tired and covered in sparkly dust. +1 Lunar Tear
+1 Glowing Spores
You run after the moths, prancing and jumping about through the hills. After a while, you stop, utterly exhausted. You did not catch a moth, but you do have a whole lot of shiny dust over your body! +1 Lunar Tear

A mystical Lunar Bat crosses your path! The glow from its flapping wings is hypnotising.
Grab it! You stare at the strange bat, watching its movements carefully. Glowing critter or not, you're hungry! The near-silent rustle of its wings suddenly stops, just as your jaws clamp shut around the bat. Hmm... it doesn't seem to taste any different. +1 Lunar Tear
+4% hunger
+2 HP
Chase it Mesmerised by the bat's mysterious glow, you decide to chase after it as it flies away. You're hungry, yes, but you decide to wait for another opportunity with a different snack. You really want a closer look at this critter! The bat notices you, and it doesn't seem unfriendly... in fact, it's rather playful. The two of you spend some time together. After a short while, you let the bat land on your back to take a rest. The critter flies away not too long afterwards, its glow disappearing behind the trees. So otherworldly... +1 Lunar Tear
+1 Silver Cone


Beautiful butterflies with glowing patterns are investigating the luminous flowers nearby.
Investigate the flowers You approach them slowly, and, to your surprise, the butterflies do not seem to be afraid of you. The smell of these glowing flowers is so heavily sweet that you're not sure if you like it, but the mere sight of this scene makes you feel calm and refreshed. +1 Lunar Tear
+4 HP
You approach them slowly, and, to your surprise, the butterflies do not seem to be afraid of you. They fly around as you sniff the ground among the flowers. Their heavy, sweet scent makes it hard for you to focus. You notice a shiny spot right underneath your paw. You wish everything was so easy to find! +1 Lunar Tear
Investigate the butterflies You approach them slowly, and, to your surprise, the butterflies do not seem to be afraid of you. Their glowing wings are shiny enough that they illuminate the entire surrounding area. You feel them sitting on your ears and muzzle. You snap your jaws in the air. Hmm... quite tasty! +1 Lunar Tear
+1 Butterfly Wing


What's that noise? You spot a nearby branch, which seems to be emanating crackling sounds and... high-pitched yelps? Oh, it's a nest! Instead of birds, you find baby moth-wolves!
Feed them Touched by their tiny squeaks, you quickly rush to find something edible for them. A small rat was an easy catch for you, but as you return to feed the babies, you hear growling. A wary mother has come back to her nest and is very protective over her babies. Alright, the snack is yours, then. +1 Lunar Tear
+1 Rat Carcass
Touched by their tiny squeaks, you quickly rush to find something edible for them. A small rat was an easy catch for you, and, with a few skilled gnaws, you tear the carcass into tiny, bite-sized pieces. It's feeding time for the babies! The mother will have a nice day to herself to rest. +1 Lunar Tear
+2 Silver Cones
Play with them You pick up a fallen feather from off the ground, but as you return to play with the babies, you hear growling. A wary mother has come back to her nest and is very protective over her babies. Alright, the feather is yours, then. +1 Lunar Tear
+1 Owl Feather
You pick up a fallen feather from off the ground and entertain the little moth-puppies with its tickly tip. They grab it, bite it, and wiggle their teeny paws at it. Awww... adorable. +1 Lunar Tear

Wow! What is that creature? Is it a bird or a cat? Or... both? Nothing can surprise you in this world anymore.
Pounce No matter what the creature is, it resembles animals you'd consider as prey, and you are pretty hungry. You pretend to walk by, taking the glowing catbird by surprise. It tries to fly away, but you're faster! The taste of the animal confuses you, and you're not sure whether it was delicious or repulsive. As you start to leave, you notice a shiny spark on the ground, likely fallen from the creature's feathers. +1 Lunar Tear
+10 HP
+10% hunger
Focused and prepared, you jump before the creature is able to notice you. However, you severely underestimated its speed and agility. After a quick and chaotic chase, the catbird spreads its wings and flies away, losing a shiny spark from its fur in the process. Tired and a bit impressed, you decide to rest for a while before continuing on with your journey. +1 Lunar Tear
+5% energy
The glowing creature looks so innocent that its fierce fight genuinely surprises you. It was supposed to be easy, effortless prey, but you end up wounded and tired. The catbird eventually escapes, losing a shiny spark from its fur. Better this than nothing, you suppose. +1 Lunar Tear
-5 HP
Play The more you discover about this land, the weirder it becomes. You approach the creature curiously and notice that it isn't afraid of you at all. The catbird rubs against your legs, and its tail shakes with excitement. It's kind of cute when it tries to catch the tip of your tail! When you two part ways, you notice a shiny spark in the dirt and a couple of feathers nearby. You wouldn't have guessed what creature the feathers belonged to if you hadn't met the catbird beforehand. +1 Lunar Tear
+10 HP
+2 Owl Feathers
When you move closer, you notice the creature is rather young and in a playful mood. It may be the strangest thing you've ever seen in your life, but joy and curiosity are pretty universal! The catbird pretends to be mighty hunter and chases you around. When it grabs you, the pain is real-it forgot to hide its sharp claws. The catbird is too cute for you to be upset for long. You receive a shiny spark from its fur as a farewell gift before it decides to fly away. +1 Lunar Tear
-2% energy
You approach the catbird, sniffing it curiously. When it realises your intentions are not malicious, it allows you to come up close, then invites you to play! You bow playfully, letting the creature jump around you. The act is so similar to playing with pups that you find yourself instinctively licking its glowing fur. The bitter taste is awful, and you find something is now stuck beneath your tongue, but you don't say a word to the catbird about it. When you two part ways, you notice a shiny spark that fell from its feathers. +1 Lunar Tear
+1 Glowing Spores


A few feathered Volukros Rats are scurrying around, sniffing every nook and cranny as if they were searching for something.
Growl and dig You've been observing the rats for a while. They're searching intently. Based on their nervousness, you can tell it's something important. Perhaps valuable, too. You deserve it more, of course. You creep out, growling at the rats, but they don't want to leave! You need to fight for this ground. You're left with painfully bitten ankles, but the treasures are yours! +1 Lunar Tear
+10 HP

You creep out, growling at the rats, which causes them to flee quickly! You're not sure anymore if digging around here is really worth it after all. Perhaps there's nothing here, anyway? You decide to check a few spots just to be safe, which reveals a few shiny objects buried under the rock. +1 Lunar Tear
-4 HP
Help out The rats are so nervous and engaged in their rummaging that they do not notice you. They're clearly searching for something important to them. You generously offer them your help. Your paws are bigger, of course, so you're going to spare them a lot of time. Moved by your gesture, the glowing rats thank you for your hard work. +1 Lunar Tear

A loud screech causes you to halt and look intensely at an indentation in the rugged terrain. A large, reddish Pherris Rat is aggressively trying to taunt you!
Pounce You pounce at the rat, successfully scaring it! It tries to hide within the small hollow of a nearby tree. Such easy prey... It surprises you by fighting back aggressively, but it wasn't a challenge for you. When you drag its carcass out of the tree, you spot a shiny sparkle on the ground. +1 Lunar Tear

A flock of Lunar Ravens is feeding on glowing fruit found among the branches of a withered tree.
Bark You look up at the ravens curiously. Their glowing feathers are a hypnotising sight. You wonder if the shining fruits they're consuming would be poisonous to you. The ravens begin to quarrel for the best spot on the branches, and the noise is too much for your ears. You bark at them to make it stop! As they take off in fear, you notice something falling from the branches. +1 Lunar Tear
+1 Acorn
You look up at the ravens curiously. Their glowing feathers are a hypnotising sight. You wonder if the shining fruits they're consuming would be poisonous to you. You've never seen a tree like this one, and you want to investigate it in peace. You bark at the ravens to scare them off, causing them to take off in a hurry and leave everything they had in their beaks behind. The taste of the glowing berries is very sweet, and they fill you up more than you expected. Suddenly, you spot something shiny falling from the branches. +1 Lunar Tear
+10% hunger
Sniff around You look up at the ravens curiously, deciding not to disturb them. The glowing fruits are interesting, but not nearly as interesting as the scents around the tree are! You find something buried under a twisted, protruding tree root. +1 Lunar Tear
+1 Lucky Foot
You look up at the ravens curiously, deciding not to disturb them. You sniff around the tree, finding a small, almost unnoticeable hollow. You were about to turn away, but a subtle shine from within the hollow catches your eye. +1 Lunar Tear

Battling opponents in the Dreamlands still requires Energy and HP, but it does not take any extra Lunar Essence than normal encounters. Lunar battle encounters also heal you more often than normal battle encounters.


Every single battle in the Dreamlands drops at least 1 Lunar Tear when won, regardless of the level of the opponent. Opponents that are Level 15 or higher will drop 2 Lunar Tears if you beat them!


In addition to normal lunar opponents, there are also bosses which appear when you are at a high level. These bosses are more difficult to defeat, but may drop better rewards. Every Charged opponent is considered a boss opponent, as well as some other assorted, rare creatures.


Every lunar opponent has a chance to drop an assortment of trophy items, some unique to the Lunar Event and others also found during typical battles!


Event-Specific Items & Trophies

There are many unique items which can only be obtained during the Lunar Event, and which can be used for crafting event recipes, feeding and playing with your wolves, or making money through trading. Some of the items serve no purpose at all, but it could be a good idea to hang on to them in case they're added to a crafting recipe in the future. Other items can also be exchanged with animals in the Dreamlands exploring for rewards!

Lunar Shoppe



The Lunar Shoppe, found on the Events page, opens with the Lunar Event. Here, you can exchange your hard-earned Lunar Tears for decorations, backgrounds, and applicators! There are no special requirements for entering the shop-anyone can visit at any time, as long as the Lunar Event is running. After the event ends, the shop will not be available until the next month's Lunar Event.


Lunar Shopkeepers
You walk into a large cave converted by crafty and skilled paws into an impressive marketplace adorned with many crystals and trinkets. There are quite a few wolves just like yourself wandering around, browsing the wares displayed on rocky shelves, hanging strings, and curled tree roots. In the darkness, everything is illuminated by the lunar essence. Its blue light creates a water-like ripple effect on the cave's stone walls.

In the most visible area, you find two Cnitharian wolves who are busy organising and trading. It's safe to assume these ladies are in charge of this place.

"Hello! Let us know if you're interested in purchasing anything. We accept all Lunar Tears, as long as they aren't cracked!" The wolf's excited voice makes you feel very welcomed.

"We just might accept coyote tears, too," adds the other wolf, chuckling gently as she combs her jellyfish-like veils.


Since the Lunar Shoppe returns every month, it has a lot of content. This shop is also unique in that some items are not available each time the event returns. Most decorations and backgrounds remain in the shop each event and do not retire or switch out with each rerun. Each biome has a variety of items exclusive to just that biome. In addition, some decorations and backgrounds can only be found under specific weather conditions, times of day, or seasons. While most of these items remain consistent, some special decorations and backgrounds might be released during unique Lunar Events which are only available when specific conditions are met. If an item is limited like this, it will be noted in the item catalogue below.

Applicators

Unlike decorations and backgrounds, Lunar Event applicators have a consistent schedule of retirement. Applicators are distributed through this event in two-month phases. Some applicators will be available for the whole two months, while other applicators will only be available for one month before they are retired.



So, how do you tell which applicators will be available in a certain Lunar Event?


Base Applicators are released every other month and are in the event shop for two months at a time. For example, if a base is released in the February event, it will be available for purchase during the February and the March events.


Each base applicator has a corresponding set of markings, claws, and leathers (skins and noses). The first month that a base applicator is released, the claw and leather applicators will accompany it. Claw and leather applicators will be available for two months alongside the base applicator. The second month that the base is available, the corresponding marking applicator is released. The marking applicator will only be available for one month.


Eye applicators are separate from the base applicator set. Each eye applicator is only available for one month before it is retired.


An example schedule of applicator releases is outlined below.


Month 1: New base applicator, new claw applicator, new skin applicator, new nose applicator, new eye applicator.

Month 2: Same base applicator, same claw applicator, same skin applicator, same nose applicator, new eye applicator, new marking applicator

Month 3: New base applicator, new claw applicator, new skin applicator, new nose applicator, new eye applicator


After the applicators have been in the lunar shoppe for their month or couple of months, they will be retired and they will not show up in normal event shoppes in the future.
