Welcome! The Adoption Center is a way for you to get a horse through art and/or literature, rather than spending coins, real-life currency, or tokens.
The Adoption Center is geared towards helping you find your first horse, or expanding your herd with a new horse that's ready to register or has a bit of background! You may also surrender horses you no longer click with or struggle to design, so they can find a new home.
All available horses can be found in the #adoption-center channel on Discord, under the Group Adopts header.
Overview/Guidelines
-
AC horses are available to newbies only (3 or fewer Loshenkas owned currently) for the first week, to ensure that there is a steady flow of horses for newer players. A countdown timer is posted in each thread to indicate when they'll be open to non-newbies.
-
Both designed and undesigned horses may be surrendered. However, undesigned genos surrendered to the Adoption Center will be designed by staff and posted later on - they are not immediately available.
-
You may only place a claim on one horse at a time, and cannot drop an existing claim to switch to a new horse.
-
Before claiming another horse, you must wait at least 3 days after posting your latest claiming piece.
-
Claims are valid for exactly one week after your form has been posted, down to the timestamp (i.e. 11/1 at 7:55pm -> 11/8 at 7:55pm).
-
Staff will not reply to confirm your claim, you may begin as soon as you send the form! Just be sure to check that an existing claim is not still active.
-
After one week, your claim will be voided and the horse becomes claimable for others again. You may not re-claim the same horse after expiry.
-
If your claim needs corrections after posting, you will have one week (from the correction) to fix and resubmit.

SURRENDERING

-
Surrendering your horse is permanent and irreversible. You may not go back and re-claim a horse you surrendered to the Adoption Center.
-
You may surrender as many horses as you'd like, but please note that the AC is not meant to be a way to farm coins. Overuse of the AC may be brought up with you if we feel you're not using it in good faith.
-
To surrender a horse, head to the #surrenders channel on Discord.
-
Payment for Surrenders:
-
You'll receive 800 coins per Designed horse
-
You'll receive 100 coins per Undesigned horse
-
