Channel 5 News Update! - A Spirited Journey



Titania McGee here with Channel 5 Action News, your best source for up to date information.

The master spirit lays defeated, with the final blow dealt by , and the curse of Kiyo’s Sorrow is beginning to lift, thanks to the brave battlers and crafters that took up this monumental challenge, however something unexpected has happened! It seems that with the spirit gone, not only has the sudden inclement weather cleared, but a new land has been revealed in the South Seas. We now go to our Channel 5 Field Reporting, live on site:

“Er yes, hello Titania. I’ve made it to the emerald hills of the new land and have spoken to some of the locals. They say the land is called Shengui Guo, a land of spirits and the otherworldly, and that is has been shrouded by spirit energy for some time.

No one has come and gone from this isolated island nation for centuries, the streets and markets are almost bare, but the mood among the few locals I spoke to is celebratory. Perhaps, with time, the markets will fill again with the chatter of vendors and crowds.”

You heard it here first: the threat of rampaging spirits has come to an end, and a new land has been revealed. What mysteries and adventures await in this new land? Only time will tell.

(You decide to visit Connor for possibly the last time.)

Note: There will be a few days in which we tally up the scores and sort out prize distribution. Work on your pets, play with your returned-to-color avatars again, or plain just have a rest! Thanks for sticking around, everyone. - Subetateam

Channel 5 News Special Report!

This is a Channel 5 Action News special report!

As the battle rages on, we're going straight to Shadowglen Councilor, Connor Rainsong, who has some pertinent information to share:

“It’s me! I’ve been wor-r-rking as fast as I can, and things are getting much clear-r-r-rer. It’s definitely the offer-r-rings! Spir-r-r-rits want to know that they are r-r-remembered, but they’ve been left neglected for too long. Whatever-r-r the pir-r-rates and Jaxon wer-r-re doing seemed to be the bar-r-re minimum, but when Jaxon took his vacation and couldn’t leave out any offer-r-rings, it was the final str-r-raw.

These spir-r-rits are taking matter-r-rs into their-r-r own hands, and for-r-rcing themselves back into our memor-r-ries. It makes sense that they star-r-rted with the pir-r-rates, who have left offer-r-rrings in the past, and Quentin, who has a closer-r-r connection with death. I bet that if Jaxon would answer-r-r the door-r-r, we would confir-r-rm that he is feeling the effects of it, too.

I wonder if Kiyo is too far-r-r gone? Her sor-r-row seems to have turned to anger-r-r…”


This has been a Channel 5 Action News special report!

Channel 5 News Update - Kiyo has returned!

Titania McGee here with Channel 5 Action News, your best source for up to date information.



As predicted, the master spirit is back with a vengeance, and scarier than ever! What has Subeta done to provoke this? What can be done to end this assault? I spoke with Connor Rainsong, acting expert, who has this to say:

“Uhhhh, well, if I’m under-r-rstanding this fully, it seems like Kiyo is some kind of spir-r-r-rit guide? She fer-r-r-ries the spir-r-rits of the depar-r-rted from our-r wor-r-rld to the land of the dead… O-r-r-r some kind of half-wor-r-rld? I’m not sur-r-r-re, it doesn’t tr-r-r-ranslate well.

He-r-r-r thoughts and feelings can affect the living, it says. Though I don’t fully under-r-rstand why, we’ve been cur-r-rsed with something called the Sor-r-r-row of Kiyo - that’s why everyone has been getting so exhausted and pale. It must have something to do with the offer-r-rings, r-r-right? Or lack ther-r-reof? I’ll keep at it!”


Thank you, Councillor Rainsong, for your report! While brave Subetans continue to face off against this terrible threat, we wish you speedy translation.

Subeta's bravest have once again managed to beat back the raging Kiyo. She came back stronger, angrier after her first defeat, and I've no doubt that she will return a third time. Will we be able to win another fight against her, or will we soon be facing the end of us all?

The final blow of this battle was reportedly dealt by . Rest up, battlers and crafters, you've earned it.

Note: The final stage will be around noon tomorrow, good luck!

It appears the cries that were heard from the retreating creature were to be believed, as from the swirling mists, Kiyo has reappeared, enraged!

Can the people of Subeta once more protect us from this ghostly beast? Will defeating Kiyo rid Subeta of the sickly 'grayscale' disease that has been afflicting people? Will the swirling mists disperse to reveal something more? These are questions I will continue to report on, as and when I can!

Remember, if you are not able to help battle this monster in the conventional way, Connor Rainsong and Mathis still need all the help they can get crafting weapons to take on the fight! Otherwise, be brave and fight well!

Note: We've added some information to the crafting page in order to make it a little clearer.

Just when things were looking bleakest, a few intrepid people have managed to pull together and start dealing damage to the creature now threatening Subeta. She seems to be retreating for now, but we've had reports of Subetans hearing her scream 'I'll be back!' so it's likely that she is taking time to rejuvenate. If you are not able to help battle this monster in the conventional way when she inevitably returns, Connor Rainsong and Mathis still need all the help they can get crafting weapons to take on the fight!

It appears that the final blow of this stage was dealt by . Good luck to all of our current and future brave battlers and crafters!

Note: We're planning on releasing the next stage of the World Boss at around 5pm tonight, and the final stage at noon tomorrow, aiming to keep each stage going for several hours to give multiple timezones a chance to participate. - Subetateam

With a final surge of the swirling mists, some kind of alpha spirit has emerged. Experts from all over Subeta are teaming up to take on this new threat, but they seem to be doing minimal damage.

Who can we turn to in our hour of need?



(You decide to check if Connor has found any new information.)

Chaos on Subeta as spirits continue to pour from the heart of the gathering mist. This weather phenomenon, centered around the South Seas, remains unexplained and is believed to be of supernatural origin.



Connor Rainsong, the councilor for Shadowglen who has been investigating the odd events around Subeta had this to say:

“What? How did you get in her-r-r-re? I’m wor-r-r-rking on it!”

We’re all working on it, Connor, and wish you speedy translation!


Channel 5 News Report!

Titania McGee here with Channel 5 Action News, your best source for up to date information.

The disturbed spirits that have been causing chaos all over Subeta are finally coming under control, thanks to the dedicated efforts of a brave few that have unearthed and performed ancient traditions.

However, a new threat may be at hand! Earlier today, our meteorologist discovered an unusual weather event taking place. From a shroud of inexplicably thick mist, a new spirit appeared, and this one doesn’t seem to be appeased by the offerings.

Who will step forward to defend Subeta!? Only time will tell!



(Uh oh! You better speak to Connor right away.)

Note: You may have guessed it already, but just so you can begin preparations, there will be a WORLD BOSS tonight released at around 11pm. The World Boss will have multiple stages, and there will be breaks in between. There will be a way for non-battlers to participate. We'll be able to give estimations of further times of release after the initial stage is defeated. - Subetateam

User-Submitted Content and Frozen Users

Hello everyone!
This is just a reminder that user-submitted content, including both custom items and custom overlays, cannot be submitted if they were drawn by users that are now frozen. This includes if you commission them off-site -- they are still considered frozen users on-site and we are unable to accept these items.

This topic is going to stay locked because I don't want anyone to get in trouble for discussing frozen users! But keep in mind this is to protect your account as much as it is to protect Subeta from a legal standpoint :) thanks for your understanding, everyone!
