heartshine Merriment

During the end of the colder season, faefolk gather together in the Cherished Circle to celebrate love, bonds, family and friendship. Faefolk like to dress themselves in heart-themed shawls and dresses to get into the spirit of the season! Heart-shaped craft offeings to Styr'Fa and those they care deeply about are common. Though it's frowned upon to have a beloved of a season that's different from their own season - some faefolk still go against the current and meet up in secret for this festival to exchange gifts. Faefolk are encouraged to spend long amounts of quality time with those they consider dear to them.

The leaders of the seasons take a significant amount of time to meet with Styr'Fa. Some seasons are more mischevious than others when their leaders' backs are turned!

This is our first faefolk-only event prompt!!!!

Seasonal BlessingsGet to this prompt by selecting Play > Prompts > Event Prompts! Seasonal Blessings

new guest artists update!

<a href=

We now have a set of permanent guest artists!!!!

Ambunny, sacchim, galestormKitsune, northfarer, feathertouch, lordstarryface, remmy and noctli have all joined the permanent GA squad!!!!
You'll see more guest artist designs from them and they can now take fully common customs without the use of a MYO slot by the commissioner! You may add on potions to your customs as well.

I will be randomly inviting other temporary guest artists over the year for advents/events as well. ❤

For full transparency; there won't be any applications- I reach out to people I either trust/know very well or I see have really good mastery over making Lunerest characters and a good understanding of all traits.
My best advice is to actively participate, make raffle designs, make MYO designs, etc!

Frostfall Festival + Crystalnight Ball Continues!!!!

Posted 2 months ago :: Last edited 2 months ago by Key

Frostfall Festival

Happy Frostfall Festival! The xyns of Lunerest are getting used to the chilly weather! There's lots of snow and ice around during this time, so many snow/ice-sculpting contests are held! Xyns take great pride in their art, and there's competitions with wonderful prizes throughout the month. Xyns also celebrate the falling of new snow by having get-togethers and singing songs. Sometimes xyns will leave offerings for the snow gods on top of huge mountains! However, during the winter months, the wilds get more dangerous. There's predators looking to prey on xyns during this time so xyns are extra vigilant to bring trained guards when going out!

 Get to this prompt by selecting Play > Prompts > Event Prompts!

crystalnight ball Continues

[Prompt continues through January 31.]

Your xyn has been invited to the first ever Crystalnight Ball! Xyns gather from all over Lunerest to dance and party the nights away. Not only are xyns there to make new friends or meet up with old friends from far away; xyns look for romance, business partners and whisper secrets among each other. Everyxyn is adorned in jewelry, crystals and ribbons and there are tons of performances by different xyns. There's group moonbathing, dancing and even attendance from the queens and other royalty. The ball is also heavily guarded since corruption beasts tend to be more active during the wintry months.

Draw your xyn attending the Crystalnight Ball. Are they making new connections? Meeting up with old ones? Partying? Maybe they're on guard duty?

There is also a contest attached to this prompt for best-dressed where the 1st place prize is a new enchanted artifact!

[This is probably our most complex prompt yet so please be sure to read everything carefully if you plan to participate!]

(written by key)

HELLO!!!! Wow it's been a really intense year full of changes for me but I'm finally starting to settle into my new life here and I have PLANS!!!!
Full transparency/disclosures ahead whee

-I'm going to try to even out the limited traits available per festival, that means some festivals are going to get MORE traits than others and some won't be getting new traits at all! (Gemheart Faire, for example, has the max amount of potions I want to have so it won't be getting any new traits this year.)

-MORE random lore drops even on things I don't think people will care about x"D Some I have planned are illnesses, social quirks, knight lore...

-MORE GA designs

-Events that last more than one month so I have time to not just work on Lunerest 100% of my free time x"D

-Faefolk exclusive events (first one coming up in Feburary)

And uhh that's about it!!!! For now!! I do have a pile of unfinished projects I want to do (pokes Lunerestian zodiacs with a stick) but I don't think I'll have time to finish those up this year...we shall see
I just wanted to say thank you!!!!!! SO MUCH!!!!!!! to everyone who plays Lunerest!!!! It was just a dinky little passion project on Deviantart at one point that only my friends really played and now there's... SO MANY OF YOU!!! AND I'VE MADE SO MANY NEW FRIENDS!!!!!! AND I AM ETERNALLY GRATEFUL, HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!!!!

I'M LOOKING FORWARD TO ANOTHER AMAZING YEAR OF LUNEREST WITH YOU ALL!!!!! MOONS GUIDE YOU!!!!!

faefolk!!!!!

Have you looked up at the sky lately, little starbit? Have you heard the whispers? The music?
[Suggested Listening] - composed by Freya specially for faefolk!
Finally, the land has contact with Etoille again and they're here to stay...

by Herboreal

Faefolk are here!!!!

Faefolk are tiny, bipedal fae-creatures that inhabit the small planet near Lunerest. For a long time, the planet has been sealed away by Styr'Fa's magic. Recently, the faefolk shrines around Lunerest have become active and communication between the lands has been re-established! Faefolk tend to a planet split up into four permanent seasons and take care of the source of their magic and life: Styr'Fa.

*Read more about faefolk here!
*New general prompts for faefolk only have been added!
*New seasonal faefolk prompts will be in rotation!
*New faefolk shop!
*Xyns are now able to access a faefolk form via the mysterious sheet music item!

Faefolk is intended to be a casual ARPG experience! The seasonal prompt will rotate every 3 months instead of every month. There will still be events with limited-time items specially for faefolk but the events will be rarer than for xyns.

Starting today all MYO coins, stickers and enchanted accessories may be used for faefolk as well as xyns!
Potions do not work on faefolk- to get special seasonal traits, you must use a seasonal blessing!

We hope you enjoy faefolk!!!! Please direct any questions/suggestions to the appropriate discord chats!
Key still has more worldbuilding/prompts planned for faefolk in the future.

Leafdusk Fete + Anniversary + Moonsoath Tournament!

Posted 7 months ago :: Last edited 6 months ago by Key

Leafdusk Fete

During the Leafdusk Fete, the plants around Lunerest are fading from their normal colours to bright yellows and oranges. The xyns celebrate the changing of the seasons with the Leafdusk Fete! The weather is cooler and light from the moon doesn't last as long. Many xyns enjoy this change from the hot months to the cooler ones. During the Leafdusk Fete there’s always a huge scavenger hunt! Ryu and Yuhi hide dawnberry flowers among the changing leaves and xyns that bring one to them are rewarded with sweets! There’s a huge sky-dance among the changing leaves that happens every night around bonfires. Xyns start to sell cozier accessories like scarves and earmuffs and there’s a craft market that starts up! There’s always good food and merriment to be had during the Leafdusk Fete!
