Aaaaaa if my friend is going to join, then I think I'm going to hop in, too! I need way more motivation to work on my pets and having a support network will really keep me going, I think. I have to run and do errands soon, but when I come back I'm going to check out the other forum thread and Discord!!

WELCOME GUYS!! you'll love bestiary we're super chill!! 8D

slow crawl in here -- i need ppl to inspire me to work on my .... 50 pets left who need work. so who better than other pet-centric ppl !!

aaaa Thank you ;A; I'll admit that I'm really super Discord shy, so it might take me a few days to try talking in the group chat, but I really appreciate the welcome!! I'm super excited, so far this sounds like fun

I saw my friend joining... so I hope it's okay if I hop in too? :'D I want more motivation to work on my pets too, they all need more love, and I hope being part of a community will motivate me to do more work on them. Also in general I miss working on my pets and developing them/doing artwork for them. :'D

👋 I hope it's okay that I've joined? I understand if not. I needed a creative outlet, so starting to write little stories for my pets. Thought a like-minded group would be fun~

welcome to our cult :D looking forward to see you guys around Discord (since we are pretty active over there and its much easier to communicate :)

also a forum-welcome to you c:

Thank you! That makes sense now, because the forums are pretty much inactive, I was worried, aha. How do I find you guys on Discord? Am I missing where the invite link is?

I can't remember where hobi posted it directly, but here is the direct link :) yeah its just so much easier to chat :)

Thank you!

Hello ! Thank you for wanting to join bestiary. We’re putting a new lil thing in place in lieu of applications, which would be just a short introduction of yourself here and maybe what pet youre proudest of, or your current plans for them. This is just for us to get an idea of you, so no worries c:

will be updating the first post as soon as she wakes up, so it’s not up there yet （＾◇＾）

Sure I can do that!

So I'm Andrea, I work in the oil & natural gas field and I travel just about every week for said job (I'm at 43 flights for the year so far hah) and otherwise I'm a very boring person. In my hometime I spend most of my time watching tv, a ton of documentaries, and really working on getting back into doing art and musing on characters.

I have been on subeta a pretty long time (almost 13 years) and that is pretty much exclusively for pets in all ways but the spotlight (not my thing). I'm one of of those crazy ID people, I have 11 or so battle pets, I'm very much obsessed with TCs, and I do all my own art/writing/coding (which I really need to work on because it's all seemingly broken now fff).

Regarding pets I'm most proud of, ughh that's like so many though but many of my good profiles were lost when I thought I'd make temps to clean out CWs and then my computer thought it'd be fun to eat it's operating system :'D -internal screaming- so that's a slow process since I play mobile most of the time (bless the note 8 & sketchbook pro). Buttt I'm still most proud of my baby Craig (he's a hoarding faerie, so his TC is super fun). I'm also a huge fan of Pomeranian, who's design is based off my irl baby Cocoa. Then there's Victoria, Desmond, Paprika, and and could literally go on forever.

I just got back into the flow by creating two new pets and using Lea's awesome templates to attempt my own pet profiles.

So I'm joining in on the fun. C:

your job sounds hectic!! but cool, and i def wouldnt say youre a boring person. and welcome to the club of subeta oldies, its almost been 11 years for me c: we have some really dedicated battlers and weekend battle events, so you'll fit right in! that overlay on craig though?? gorgeous. and listen, i need to see more of cocoa. i really do hope you join the discord bc i feel like... 70% of us have dogs?? and so many pics, its great

hello there! id invite you to maybe give a bit more of a comprehensive intro, a la andrea, just in lieu of an application, if you wouldnt mind c: and also! please remember to join the bestping group as well, as thats the one that usually pinged for adoptions and the like. also, your forum art?? so good

also you guys are coming at a great time, since we just released our mascot yesterday evening :>

Thank you. I love Hippano's art. They are so talented. Using their art in a few of my pets profiles too.

So about me...uh... I work as a teacher and live in Germany. In my free time I usually chat with my friends, write stories and like to create new characters. Also fond of swimming and sleeping. XD

I have been on Subeta for...I think 7 or 8 years now? Always liked the site for being smaller and more familiar feeling. I made some great friends here over the years. I have a battle pet that I hope to get to the highest tiers one day. But my main interest is filling up my pets' TCs. Exedo's would be my favorite in that regard.

Is the bestping group the one where you need to be invited by the admin after asking to join? c:

DEUTSCHLAND DEUTSCHLAND DEUTSCHLAND

yaaay for another german! im not german, but i grew up there! plus, we've got and im just glad for more germans

Hippano, do they have the same un on subeta? bc dang, i can see some of our members commissioning lmao. you sound like you fit in perfectly! also, i think i might have drawn sth for one of your characters? as for bestping, i think you can request an invitation? i think you should just be approved by one of us, and then you're good to go

I was chatting with Chi just recently when we found out we live in the same country. XD

Unfortunately Hippano isn't on Subeta. But you can ask about commissions on her Tumblr for sure? Though she draws only human characters as far as I know. And you might have. I have too many OCs, haha. Trying to get a pet for each of them but unfortunately some names are taken. :C

And thank you very much. I sent a request to join the forum group. c:

I'm not sure if I am pinging the right person but aaa! Hi there! I am new to subeta but definitely not new to pet sites and creating/writing characters for them! I was a long-time Neo fan (xaerynnx was my account on there) who totally went above and beyond for her pets before the site messed up the whole coding thing with the filters and whatnot! I would love to get in touch with other subeta users who love their pets like crazy!

I joined today! And my first pet was actually Elci the glacier popoko ! I was lucky enough to find her in the pound this morning!! I'm super excited because she was actually one of the first morphed pets that caught my eye when I was skimming through the pet-color lists online!~ My plans for her would definitely be to create a character and draw! I was thinking of reviving this other character I had from a long time ago!

I like to draw too! So hopefully I can make some artist friends?^^

hello there!! Def pinged the right person c: I feel you on things messing up your planning - happens to me all the time, but it’s usually due to my own mistakes ;v; and yeah, we’d love to have you! We have trimonthly evaluations to keep everyone on track, but everyone is super nice and willing to help with ideas. I remember seeing Elci - she’s adorable, congrats! I’d def be curious to hear more about your ideas! My most recent adopt was Krux, but I’m currently working on Shotgun and Monstre. Shotgun is my baby! And yeah, a lot of us are artists, me included, so there’s a lot of talk about that too! I’d suggest joining the discord tbh, since that’s where we do most of our chatting due to convenience really. The link should still be posted above, but feel free to just ask me for it again if it’s not working. Oh! And we’re currently voting on the color scheme for our mascot, Xili.

Do you have a name and pronouns you prefer? Welcome to Best!

Aww I'm super excited to be a part of this forum! Thank you for having me !! I love having a means for inspiration in terms of character creation and art so this will be great! Yes I am 100% willing to discuss character ideas with anybody whether it be mine or theirs ~ Shotgun is absolutely adorable !

Edit: I found the discord and will be providing my introduction once I get home!

And my preferred pronouns are she/her thank you so much !
