Pets

 

 

Pets are unique items that offer bonuses when they appear in pieces with your character. These bonuses may affect Stat Checks, currency rewards, or sometimes provide other special abilities. While no pet is 100% identical, there are categories of pets that indicate what bonuses they provide.

 

Pet Types

 

 

Luck Pet: These pets are lucky somehow. They somehow make it so Stat Check rolls cannot roll below a certain number.

 

Loot Pet: These pets help characters acquire more Horseshoes or have the chance to find items.

 

Mystic Pet: These pets add + bonuses to INT Stat Checks involving spells.

 

Tracking Pet: These pets help to detect sounds, smells, or sights in the environment. They give + bonuses to WIS Stat Checks involving finding or noticing things.

 

Therapy Pet: These pets are innately charming and soothing. They provide + bonuses to CHA Stat Checks.

 

Working Pet: These pets are hard workers with a lot of strength. They provide + bonuses to STR Stat Checks.

 

Racing Pet: These pets are light on their feet! They provide DEX Stat bonuses in some situations. 

 

Utility Pet: These pets are good at manipulating certain objects. They provide DEX Stat bonuses in some situations.

 

More pet types may be added in the future.

 

 

Acquiring Pets

 

Characters can find pets in a lot of different ways. Sometimes Characters will find them on Adventures or during Random Encounters. Sometimes they may be awarded from special events. There are two other ways to get a pet…Adoption or redeeming Vouchers.

 

Pet Vouchers are items that let Players draw their own pets based on requirements found in the type of voucher used, if any. These vouchers are a one-time use item and disappear once the pet is created.

 

Types of Pet Vouchers

 

 

Custom Pet Voucher: You get to design the pet and choose the pet type, though you do not get to choose the bonus number.

 

Semi-Custom Pet Voucher: You get to design the pet, but not choose the pet type or bonus.

 

Limited Pet Voucher: You are given a general description of the pet, as well as given a specific type and bonus. You only get to design small details of the pet’s design.

 

 

Adoption

 

Adoption is when pets arrive at the Animal Adoption Coalition and are looking for a new home. These animals are refugees from throughout Equestria that have been displaced due to Wild Magic. They would like to live with somepony, but it’s not first come first serve! Ponies are encouraged to socialize with the pet and try to convince them as to why they’d be a good friend to live with. In the end, the animals choose who they want to go home with.

 

Adoptions are essentially Draw/Write to Adopt events for Pets. Each pet will be open for submissions for a certain window of time where you can create submissions showing your character trying to bond with the pet up for adoption. 

 

There is no cost associated with winning an adoption.

 

Current Open Adoptions: None

 

 

Pet Creation

 

Adoption pets are usually created as soon as the event ends. In other instances, you may need to provide art or other information to have your pet created.
