Special Grounds

These areas appear still and quiet, but they're shimmering and alive with the buzzing of seemingly magic electricity. These are the only areas where Rares are common, Specials cautiously travel, and Legendaries hide. There are 3 areas in which one can travel here. Getting into here is expensive, costing 2 gb just to step foot on these sacred lands. Not only do they house Special and Legendary buns, they're home to special creatures that may drop or gift items that can be used to boost stats, increase energy, affect interactions, or even change something about your bun's appearance. Tread lightly, the creatures here are not used to having company, but they know you're here.

These areas may only be explored twice a week. A special bun is most definitely not guaranteed, and a Legendary is even less likely. Do not expect to always or often be granted any of the gifts that myths here can give.

Enchanted Forest
The Tiger bun is said to stalk these forests at night, prowling like the cat it was named after. Along with it are the Flora bun and the mythological Albino, immortal stag, the King of the Forest. His eyes are said to hold a wisdom that surpasses even that of the oldest philosophers, the stag having been mythed to exist in the first forests to have grown in this realm. If your bun chances upon him and receives his Blessing, your buns horns may grow to resemble that of a stags. They will have longer, slender legs, and an elegant stride. Your bun will be much more likely to capture other buns, and will have a boost added to their strength and charisma, though their stealth will fall heavily. Their energy also goes from 100 to 200, giving them double the time to explore. They will be much more likely to come across and capture the special Flora bun. Enemies, however, come in many shapes and forms. Your bun must be at least level 15 to enter this sacred place. It will earn 3k-8k exp in this area.

Shimmering Lake Valley
Deep within a valley carved from ancient floodings, the Corruption bun is said to protect a lake with its very life. This bun has a ferocity like no other, and is not to be taken lightly. It guards this lake for good reason. Within the still, crystal-clear depths of the lake lurks the Special Reef bun. Along the steep, forested, misty slopes that surround the lake, hides the Special Mist bun. Along with these two, another mythological creature roams this cool, cloudy area. Kelpie, a beautifully dangerous shapeshifting water creature, are said to swim within the depths of this large, quiet lake. If they are encountered, they will usually attack. However, if your bun manages to befriend a Kelpie, it will be gifted with raised Defense, Charisma, and Stealth. Strength will drop sharply. Your bun will gain energy very slowly if it is in a rainy area, though heat will drain its energy quickly. It will be more likely to lure in creatures with its charm, using that to strike or capture them. This area is rampant with strange bird and fish enemies, which will give 10-16k exp. This area is reserved for only buns that are level 30+.

Hellfire Ruins
Here, the Bolt bun shows the line between Earth and Hell. Beyond the defenses of Bolt buns and thunder birds, the Hell Rabbits roam. These demonic buns are larger than normal buns, dark bodies manifested by the constant smoke and magic that haunts the Ruins. Hellborn resides within the soot and destroyed buildings, body burning bright and eyes cold and dead. The Hellborn can summon Hell Rabbits to do their bidding, but only on the blood moon. The Hellborn are a Special not to be played around with. Beyond them, within the volcano behind the ruins, lays the Inferno bun. They are the rarest, guarded by the Phoenix, hell hounds, Hell Rabbits, and Hellborn. The Phoenix will almost always be completely aggressive, attacking anything that gets close to the Inferno bun. However, an extremely lucky bun may be touched by the Phoenix. To be touched by the Phoenix without being burned grants the bun the ability to pacify the enemies that roam these destructive, fiery lands and use them in battle. However, it is for a price. This chosen bun will have a complete appearance change, and will not be able to breed ever again. It will become more aggressive to the Special buns in other areas, preventing them from being able to tame anything besides buns from the Hellfire Ruins. The Touch of Phoenix will give a boost to Strength, Stealth, and Defense, but Charisma will drop sharply. Only buns of 50+ will be allowed here, and 18k-25k exp will be rewarded.
