April Event

It's April, and the rabbits and hares are breeding like crazy! It looks like we have a fluffy plague on our paws, and we've heard that these fluffballs like to carve weird things into Ostrich Eggs with their ever-growing teeth. With this April event, you mighty lions need to catch as many fluffballs as possible, and collect those carved Easter Eggs! There are two areas to unlock: one calls for your bunny catching skills, and the other for your dedication to exploring.

All eggs that you collect will be useful to purchase fancy things for yourself, but, as of 2019, every egg you collect counts towards a new collection event bar that replaces the personal donation bar. The bar will take into account all collected Easter Eggs globally from all players.

The Bunny Shop opens when the Fluffballs Caught bar reaches 100%!

What is April About?
* Collect carved Easter Eggs for currency!
* Work together to unlock special areas where you can spend your currency or enjoy event-exclusive features!
* Explore to experience the fluffball encounters!
* Find Lucky Feet to win battles against NPCs immediately!
* The bars unlock tiers in the Bunny Shop, as well as three different features in the Egg Den!
* Bunny Tunnels should only allow females to play, as males have their EXP reset when they become king.
* Fuchsia Flowers you find in explore can be crafted into Fuchsia markings and Fuchsia base!

Bar 1 - Fluffballs Caught
* Tier 1 unlocks items to purchase.
* Tier 2 unlocks more items to purchase.
* Tier 3 unlocks even more items to purchase, as well as the Bunny Tunnels!

Bar 2 - Easter Eggs Collected
* Tier 1 unlocks ostrich chicks to play with!
* Tier 2 unlocks April NCL-exclusive markings!
* Tier 3 unlocks the Primordial Spring, where you can de-age or age up your main male by 2 years once per lifetime!

2020 Changes
* Nine new explore encounters to find!
* The Confused Ostrich encounter art has been redone!
* As a result of the poll's winning choice, the Bunny Shop NPC art will be redone in the following days!

The Hibiscus base has Red Medium Countershaded Special genetics.

April Storyline
In April 2017, we decided to shed some light on where the carved Easter Eggs came from, what the fluffball's agenda is, and to give a story behind the Primordial Spring. The story will be repeated again this year, but each year we try to add something new to collect!

Mysterious Wenet has a banner that appears in the EVENT area. She will invite you to take part in a journey that lets you wear a special mask. Wearing it has pros and cons: while wearing it, you won't be able to chase bunnies anymore, and you may miss out on the special, extremely rare, hidden result of chasing fluffballs!

* Questing is entirely optional. This is something that we've added on top of April's usual event content, but it does bring you amazing things, including Easter Eggs and Egg Yolks!
* You can take a quest only once a day, but you can finish that quest any day.
* Wenet's quests are named, unique, and will log in your User Log so that you're aware of exactly where you're at in the storyline. They're also very roleplay-esque!
* Wenet will tell you what to do, and will wait for you until you're done with the quest.
* As you give Wenet things, you may notice she likes to look pretty for you as the storyline progresses!
* Wearing the mask Wenet gives you is optional, and can be turned on and off on Wenet's page. It only affects event-related encounters in explore, by enabling certain encounters and disabling others.
* Rewards that Wenet gives you includes, among other things, Hare Points. You can spend them in her shop, located on her page!
* Once you complete the storyline, you can go back every day until the end of the April event and complete some of the previous quests again, in order to get more Hare Points; other rewards are turned off. These quests are randomised and will change every rollover. You cannot abandon a quest.
* The estimated maximum Hare Point count for doing every quest each day of April is 85, including the special quest payout!
* Once the Primordial Spring unlocks, Wenet will have an extra special quest for you that you can take, no matter if you've finished the storyline or not!

The April event starts on April 1st at 00:00am LDT! The March event ends on March 31st, today, at 11:59pm LDT! All currency is locked on your account and stored until next year!

Wenet Claiming
On the last day of April, Wenet felt enough of a connection to the player that she offered a claiming game, giving a chance to win her over. Eventually, we decided to mix it up a little and offered a Wenet cousin instead, for the sake of variety. They were randomised and had a pool of pre-set markings that were hand-picked to resemble Wenet's markings.

In 2020, due to a poll's winning choice, we will do our best to bring claiming the actual old-school Wenet back, BUT keep the cousins open as an option! Because you guys voted for it, the cousins will guarantee some event markings. They'll also have some random ones from the cousin marking pool, as well as the chance to have Iris eyes!

We're working on the coding still, so we'll give you all the final information in April's development update on the 10th.

Oh.

And watch out.
