Getting a Vulpeco

Overview

New vulpecos hatch from MYOs ("make your own"): you design them within the rules, submit the design on the site, and once staff approve it your vulpeco appears on your profile, ready to play.

Submit a new vulpeco

Where Vulpecos Come From

Source	How you get it	Rarity on its own
Nursery MYO	Free, once, for players who have never owned a vulpeco	Always Common
MYO Voucher	Trade 10 Cocoon Fragments on your profile, or from staff	Up to Common
Guardian MYO Voucher	The gift for reaching Guardian, player level 10	Up to Rare

You can also buy a vulpeco or receive one as a gift. Once you own one, you can no longer claim the free Nursery MYO, so claim it first.

The Nursery

Claim your Nursery MYO on Discord. Some of its design is chosen for you; you design the rest. When you submit it, link your claim message (right-click it in Discord → Copy Message Link) so staff can check the predetermined traits were followed.

Cocoon Fragments

Cocoon Fragments turn up on Rare finds while scavenging, and as level-up gifts. Once you have 10, a button on your profile trades them for an MYO Voucher. Fragments in any of your vulpecos' inventories count.

Rarity

A design's rarity is its rarest trait: base coat, markings, fur, eyes or skin. See Base Coat, Markings, Fur Types and Eyes & Skin.

Pouring in Nectar

A cocoon can hatch rarer than its source allows if your vulpecos tend it, pouring their stored Nectar into it:

To reach	Nectar, on top of the step before
Uncommon	300
Rare	600
Mythic	1,200

So an MYO Voucher design costs 300 Nectar to be Uncommon, 900 to be Rare and 2,100 to be Mythic. A Guardian MYO Voucher is already Rare, so Mythic costs 1,200. The Nursery MYO can't be raised.

Any of your vulpecos can pour in, and you can split the Nectar between them however you like. It's only taken when staff approve the design.

Names and Numbers

Name your vulpeco anything you like, even a name another vulpeco already has. Every vulpeco also gets its own number when it's approved (#001, #002 and so on), and that's how the site and staff tell them apart. You can look a vulpeco up by its number in Discord too: /vulpeco #012.

Numbers starting with x (#x001 and so on) belong to staff test and NPC vulpecos, which are counted separately.

Starting Out

A new vulpeco starts at level 1 with 9 in every stat and 4 points to spend (see Vulpeco Stats), 2 marking slots and no oddity slots. You can spend its points when you submit it or later on its page.

Costs may be rebalanced while we are in Alpha.
