Hello everybody! Welcome to another wonderful year of Starsail festivities, and boy do we have a bunch of goodies for you all so prepare for a read!
The Ssael migration seems to have been delayed, but the long-awaited critters have finally appeared in the sky over the Whistler Crest!
The stalls are buzzing with activity, the food smells amazing, and theres so many things to look forward to!
Time to celebrate-
Wait a minute....something seems.....different.....
The air is charged with a tangible energy, and there seems to be a few stars that are shining MUCH brighter than normal....and....coming CLOSER????
Oh Circles- BRACE FOR IMPACT!
.......
No impact is heard, but instead....A sharp glow of light is seen, and three absolutely MASSIVE figures appear in front of you
They introduce themselves as
Bismo, Nodel, and Knantu.
They are travellers from beyond the planet we reside on, and they have decided to come planetside due to the rather high amount of 'Little Stars' who they claim they can help!
These three
look like Astralits....but obviously theyre much larger than anyone anybody else has ever seen! And they have joints like a fancy wooden doll! Is this what adult Astralits look like...?
Bismo laughs, and says that they are actually 'Proto-Astralit
', otherwise known as to the folks below, as Space Debris! And not just
any Space Debris, but
Isochronal Space Debris! They have graciosuly constructed forms for their Essence and Cores that would be easier for planetside finley to comprehend, though they all apologize for the rather large size difference-
Nodel clears his throat softly, and Bismo quiets down to let him speak
Nodel steps forward, and says they have arrived here to help the young Astralits here unlock their full potential, and finally grow into proper Stars. Or, to word it clearer, to finally become Adults! And not just grow up- but finally start wielding Magic as well! They all realize it is a large thing to undertake, so they will do their best to break the large amounts of knowledge they are going to bestow into manageble bits.
Both locations have simultatious access to these three Isochronal Spirits during the entire month of July, and with them, comes unique prompts, and chances for AP!
Nodel brings the gift of ancestral knowledge, stories from beyond the stars about Astralit and Space Debris of eons past for the newest generation of little stars spread across the continents!
He teaches Shadow magic, being of the primordial Order of Black Hole.
He tells stories all through the day and night, and is quite easy to find in either location where he may be due to his towering status!
Bismo brings the gift of the joy of the space and the great Unknown. He adores lanternmaking, and teaches anybody that wishes to know how to create one as offerings, how to do so!
He teaches Light magic, being from the primordial Order of Supernova!
He can be found in the outer fields outside Whistler Crest, or by the sea on the Isle of Xaaida
Knantu brings the gift of the Constellations, and how to navigate from anywhere with their wise guidance and Gifts.
He also teaches young Gravity Astralits how to wield their Manefestations, being of the primordial Order of Pulsar.
You can find him either setting up competitons and building structures on the Island, or manning a Starsail Strongman mini-stall on the Mainland
For interacting with these Spirits you can actually earn unique AP! It seems repeated and prolonged exposure to either, or all of three has an effect on your body, and you start to take on bits of their appearances! How neat!
*You must complete all of a Spirits prompts in order to claim their upgrade
it seems that the extra Mana in the air has also resulted in an explosion of new Starsail AP! (including a returning favorite non seasonal!)
How do i earn these upgrades?
*Note: Starsail related means playing at stalls, interacting with the Spirits, or drawing your character doing traditional Starsail activities or for the Islanders, traditional summertime festivities (playing in the ocean, painting stars on one another, stargazing ect)!
These upgrades may be applied once per location! So once for the Mainland, and once for the Island!
• Heterochromia (Universal) will be available to apply once to one (1) character, if you submit three fully polished fullbody Starsail related entries. Collabs do not count, and the upgrade must be applied to the character featured in the image.
• For completing 1 Starsail related picture with at least a medium background and halfbody, you may unlock 1 rarity of choice to any character, Mainland or Islander
•For completing 3 Starsail related pictures with at least a medium background and halfbody, you may unlock 2 rarities of choice to any character, Mainland or Islander
•For completing 5 Starsail related pictures with at least a medium background and halfbody, you may unlock 4 rarities of choice to any character, Mainland or Islander
•For completing 7 Starsail related pictures with at least a medium background and halfbody, you may unlock all 7 rarities to any character, Mainland or Islander
(Small reminder! since this years Starsail takes place during Artfight, we encourage to have your Starsail images ALSO be attacks! Its a two in one feature! You also get that tasty tasty gift EXP!)
The long awaited has finally came.....the Growing up of your astralit!
Using the guidance of the Isochronal Space Debris, you can now finally begin the journey to adulthood after so long! Seems like the unlocking of your base Manefestations was the missing key preventing you from shooting up into your teens like your peers, and now youre finally on their level!
I wonder what youre going to look like all grown up?
With adults released, the ban on making Astralits with keys, transferring in characters as Astralits, and potioning your characters into Astralits has now been lifted! They are free to create now, same as Nyulop and Draken
Starsail Stalls
With all the other hubub out of the way, heres a place to find all the standard Starsail activities!
In order to play the four automated stalls, you must draw an entry meeting the various criteria, submit it to the Starsail gallery, and submit it to the linked prompt to claim Stardust!
Stardust is the Starsail exclusive currency used to function the prize wheels, and will be automatically deposited to your account once the prompt is submitted.
