**Event has ended, Event shop is open!


Most Recent Update: 4/29/18

A massive tree with ribbons of every color laced throughout its boughs looms before you, its roots firmly placed up on a gentle hill. Perhaps it's a memorial? As you near it you can just barely make out the figure of an older gentlemen climbing down from the great tree's branches, he is surprisingly spry! With a "Hup!" he lands before you. The gentleman nods his head in greeting, spurred on by this action you decide to ask what he was doing up there

"I'm tending the Dogweeds, I was worried the ribbons might have been affected by the storm last night."

"Dogweeds?" you ask hesitantly.

"Oh, not from around here then? The great ribbon tree grants wishes, if you tie a ribbon tightly around a branch, and it truly believes you have a good heart, it will bless you with a Dogweed. Some say they're good omens, to be honest I don't believe that mumbo jumbo. I just think they're good companions."

He walks you over to a patch of sprouting leaves peaking out of the soft earth, each a different color.

"If your ribbon is deemed worthy, a branch falls from the tree and becomes a Dogweed. Given enough time they'll sprout up out of the ground and be solely yours for the rest of their lives," his face then turns from pride to dismay, "Though lately the tree hasn't been a good judge of character. There's been quite a few owners who have tied ribbons and left their Dogweeds without a home."

With aching muscles the old man leads you towards a group of feral Dogweeds hidden on the other side of the wide tree's trunk, some huddled together, others spread sparsely out amongst the tree's safe roots, bitter about their lot in life. Their owners have long since forgotten them after tying their ribbons and they have been left to fend for themselves. They seem to be a hybrid of both plant and canine with three eyes on either side of their heads, mouths of various colors with what appears to be vibrant sap dripping from their jaws.

Feral Dogweeds
Feral dogweeds have their genders set and cannot be changed without an item.

"I've been taking care of them, but it's hard on me to watch over so many. You have a good enough heart to patiently talk to an old codger like me, I'd be more than happy to part with one or two of them, but I ask for a small donation to help me recuperate my costs."

Ribbons
Ribbons are flexible, you may write whatever gender you prefer directly onto the ribbon and the tree will provide you with your wish. You may choose the gender before or after your Dogweed sprouts.

"I sell ribbons if you're interested in having one of your own, if you write on them the Great Tree will hear you. Just make sure to pick a good branch and tie it tight! They should be ripe to pluck after a day or so, so make sure you're there for them!"

Resting spot

In Stock - 4 Available
Want to buy a ribbon but are nervous about how the grown Dogweed will look? The Dogweed tender will show you a nice shady spot to rest, it's said that if you rest in his spot you will have a dream of what your ribbon will become so you can decide whether to purchase it or not.
(Gives a preview of what a Ribbon will look like as a Dogweed. Whether a mutation is minor or major will be revealed a well. Does not have to be used immediately.)

Pruning Shears

In Stock - 5 Available
Dude looks like a lady!
(Swap your Dogweed's genders... yikes!)

FAQ & Rules (WIP)

How do ribbons work?
Ribbons will eventually become Dogweeds, and unlike a feral Dogweed that already has a gender you have the option to choose this one's gender as it hasn't formed yet. Once the gender has been set, however, it cannot be changed unless "pruning shears" are used.

How does the resting spot work?
Once payment is received I will send you a message with the watermarked version of that ribbon's Dogweed. From there you can decide whether or not you want to bid on it. This image is for your eyes only, you may NOT repost it anywhere (nor can you share it with anyone.) Resting spots do not have to be used right away, you may save them for a later date, however you may only have one saved at a time.

Why are there multiple bids posted under one Dogweed?
It helps me keep track of who offered what. If the highest bidder does not get in contact with me within 24 hours after bidding has ended the Dogweed automatically goes to the next highest bidder (unless they have contacted me beforehand we've come to an agreement.)

Minimum increase?
100

Can I use these outside of the site?
Yes! Once they're yours you may post them where ever you please, so long as you're not claiming you made them.

Hello~! So I'm very new to Lioden (just started this week) and I've never done adoptables before. These are an old unused sketch from when I did art for another site and I thought why not give them new life?

I have no idea what I want to set their prices at so I would greatly appreciate any opinions on the matter. What would you be willing to pay for them (Common/Uncommon/Rare vs Ribbons?) Would you like them to be breedable or prefer to stay as one-time purchases?

Thank you all for bearing with me and sharing your opinions!

Starting prices should be 500sb first to see how popular they get. If you get a lot of interest then i would set the starting price at 1gb and the bo at 10 to 10gb. :) i would like to be the starting bid on the fifth

Hoo boy! I wasn't expecting such a fast response. Thanks for your attention and breaking the ice!

Also that sounds good to me! If I don't get any bids by tomorrow (afternoonish) he's all yours. I'll set your name down on the top post as the highest bidder.

CrowCrow - Yes of course, there are still four available you may buy one if you wish. Lemme know when you send it.

Moonie - Sorry for the delay! I've sent you the image, lemme know if you have any issues seeing it.

♛ Fox ♛ - You got it! I'll set you down for 500. It'll be yours unless someone else bids before afternoonish tomorrow.

ianian - Alright, I'll set you down for 400sb on 3, and 6 but Moonie gets priority to bid for 7 as I had already received payment before you posted. If they don't decide they want it I'll put you down for 500sb, if they DO decide they want to set the starting bid at 500sb though you're welcome to try and outbid.
