Apparently people from "regular" petsites are having a hard time with our site. So here's a brief note about that to help folks. And I will post this on the [link] account too.

PETSITE TRANSITION FAQ

[link]

Wytheria is intentionally not setup like a traditional petsite. We did not reference petsites when creating it. We referenced RPGs for consoles and used them for inspiration. Then translated them to the online/browser based game. We don't want to call ourselves a petsite (a lot of serious gamers are turned off by that) but we have all the features required to qualify as one and so we still advertise a bit on vps related forums.

That having been said here are some questions that you'll probably ask if you are coming from a traditional petsite:


Where are main shops?
We don't have "main shops" Shops are located all over the island. You'll have to explore to find out where all the shops are. You can, however, find a lot of shops in the city.

Where is the arcade and can I get money there?
We call our "arcade" the "entertainment centre" and it is easilly findable via a link on the side bar. There is also a link to it, the art gallery, and the notice board above the forums at all times. Some games do give you money, but, we have intentionally made money making a challenge. There are no get rich quick schemes here. You may notice there are not alot of games in the entertainment center. This is because most of the games are hidden throughout the world much like minigames in an RPG. j

How do I up my pets' stats?
Pets do have stats that are upgradeable by items. But we focus on the human players more than their companions. You can train yourself and battle in the woods. We are working on a script to call pets into battle much like a summons creature in popular RPG games.

I can't customize my profile! What's up with that?
You can a little bit. We wanted the profiles to tell us about the "character" you are playing and not so much about you personally (unless you are playing yourself). We don't have any custom html becuase this isn't myspace. We want you to be "in character" and follow the storyline. Although we have no problem with socializing, obviously, as we have plenty of boards for you to do so on and you by no means have to stay in character. But if youwant to do custom html stuff you should make yourself a website We do, however, allow you to describe your character, pick your mood, pic your avatar, and we display your stats for everyone to see.

Customizing your pets look and colors:
We do have color changing items called cloaks because they were fervently asked for. More looks will be coming in the future.
