Relaunch Stage Three is Underway!
Posted 1 week ago :: Last edited 1 week ago by Artha-DemonYou can now use the new Claim, under the category Other, called Drakiri Transfers.
The Rules of the Claims
Add your transfer token to the claim and the URL of the Drakiri you are bringing in.
All Drakiri are stored over here on the Archive: https://drakiri-archive.com/
Your login will work there just like it works here, I copied the site ENTIRELY before I deployed the Drakiri-Deletinator.
Semicustoms, Full Customs, Ultra Wildcards, and Character Transfers do not require Transfer Token, as these were purchased directly from the ARPG itself. Specify if your Drakiri is a Custom, Semicustom, Ultra Wildcard or Character Transfer.
Specify if you want them to have a certain lineage, otherwise they will be assigned random starters based on their markings.
Up to 3 Drakiri can be transferred per claim.
If you do not have any transfer tokens yet, use the claim to get them. If you need more, you can release Drakiri to get tokens.
Drakiri that were made breedable or levelled up by Voucher will lose their Breedable Status and go back to Level 0, HOWEVER, you will receive Silver Nuggets in return! Breeding and Level Vouchers are being discontinued.
You will 50 Silver Nuggets per Rite, and 50 Silver Nuggets per Level.
New Random Genos can't be rolled quite yet, since the random geno roller still needs a minor tweak and breeding is not yet open, but this is a HUGE step!
Relaunch Stage Two has Begun! Release Event!
Posted 1 week ago :: Last edited 1 week ago by Artha-DemonHere is the rarity exchange:
Abilities: 1 Silver Nugget each, regardless of rarity (Being discontinued
Common: 1 Silver Nugget (This counts for each common trait and the common breed, so the base for a Kainu with all common traits is 5 Silver Coins)
Uncommon: 2 Silver Nuggets
Rare/Specialty(Holiday and Magic genes): 3 Silver Nuggets
Legendary: 4 Silver Nuggets
Mutts: Uncommon
Crossbreeds, count once, for the rarer breed in the cross. (So Kainu x Nightmare would count as rare, for example)
Faults do not count, they don't add or remove any nuggets
To release a Drakiri, go to the archive site: https://drakiri-archive.com/ and select the Drakiri you wish to release. You can release up to 5 at a time per claim.
The claim to fill out: Release Event
Make sure you file the claim here, not on the archive. Though the Archive claims are closed while they are open here.
Tally out the amount of silver nuggets they will get, add that to your rewards. Link the Drakiri being released as well. Note that once deleted, that Drakiri can never be reclaimed. It is gone for good, off living its own life somewhere in the world!
You will receive Silver Nuggets, and the Drakiri will be deleted from the archive.
You can then go to the Silver Nugget Shop (https://drakiri.com/shops/13 )where you can preorder the new breed or get more transfer tokens to bring more of your favorite Drakiri over! I will be adding a few more items over time.
Note that you can't start transferring Drakiri over yet. Once the starters are up, I will then set up a claim to use your transfer tokens to bring your favorite Drakiri over, and instruct how you can bring your inventory over.
Relaunch has Begun! Read More Within
Posted 1 week ago :: Last edited 1 week ago by Artha-DemonFirst step of Relaunch is in!
Claims are open again! The first Claim you all can do is the Relaunch Redeem Claim!
File that claim to receive 15 Transfer Tokens and a single Riftborn Random Geno - Wildcard! It's considered a "Preorder" right now because they aren't fully released, but the base is done.
I am waiting on one small thing before starters are going up and then transfers can begin, which SHOULD be done this weekend.
You can check the Silver Nugget Shop to see what will be available - the release event will be set up likely next week, but the Silver Nugget Shop is already open. And yes - you CAN trade silver nuggets to other players!
Note that you can not have your geno rolled until the starters are up, but that should be soon.
Note that you can not start transferring in yet! Once a small update is made on the autofill, the new breed details are added, and the new starters are all uploaded with their Fault Codes assigned, the soft relaunch will begin and Draks can start coming in.
The Release Event is planned to start next week, where you can release Drakiri from the Archive to get Silver Nuggets, which you can use to get the new breed and used to get more transfer tokens.
Bringing over your inventory will start next week too. Everybody will get 15 Arcanium + 1 Arcanium for every 1500 Aurics, and any items that aren't being discontinued can be brought over (Shop items, stuff like that)
While items and such are overhauled, there will be a series of art prompts you can do to earn Aurics and Items so you can use the shops!
Breeding will open first, then activities (Including combat! The roller is not as detailed as originally planned, but it functions and it'll be a new thing that can be added!) and then I will be adding in crafting, gear, amulets, and the new system for abilities (Embued Amulets that give the Drak an ability while they are equipped. I haven't decided how amulets will work just yet, but I am thinking that a new item is made for that amulet, allowing it to be equipped with the decription saying what it does, and when the amulet is removed, it's destroyed, and the item is deleted. More manual work for those of us doing claims, causing equipping to require a character update, but it works until I can find something to automate it) - and the magic system will be worked on next (Once I figure out Skill Trees)
Levels and Stats are planned for a rework to use the Level and Stat addon, but for now they are staying as is.
HUGE Update!! (Make sure you read!)
Posted 1 month ago :: Last edited 1 month ago by Artha-DemonFor those of you who are here and not in the Discord, we have some MASSIVE updates!
First, we have an Archive site: https://drakiri-archive.com/
It is up and running! You can log in, look around, all that. It MIGHT be a little slower because it's on a much smaller (And cheaper) server.
It's an exact copy of Drakiri as it is with all Drakiri and all items intact. You can log in to the Drakiri Archive site, view your inventory, all that - you can't actually do prompts and NO game functions will be going over there. It isn't connected to an email server, none of that. But all your credentials are intact because the database was moved over as an exact copy. I will be adding a different CSS to diffrentiate it.
Draks in the Archive can not be used, can not be submitted to be designed, can not be bought or sold or traded. (I guess technically you can but they are useless until transferred in). It is a backup, so I can start working on the Reboot here!
The archive is in read only mode (You can't file claims, can't do anything, but you CAN log in! If you forgot your password, contact me directly. I can force a new password in for you, then you can change it to whatever you want. Sendgrid and the email server is NOT connected to this archive.
Feel free to log in and poke around and let me know if anything is amiss! I am going to start working on clearing the database once it is done - All Drakiri and all player inventories are going to be wiped on the main site. The Archive is storage; it will be up indefinitely. As Draks are transferred over to the refreshed site, they will be deleted from the archive.
Everybody will get 15 Transfer Tokens they can use to start bringing Draks over once I have the new items and item lists set up.
Drakiri that you purchased from me directly (Semicustoms, Full Customs, Draks from character transfer tokens) do not require one of these new tokens to bring them in. Note that this is NOT READY YET... I'll announce when we are at that point but I have the entire Starter overhaul to do first!
The sheer amount of items is going to be lowered, drastically, and all those items that were implemented but never had a use are going to be yeeted. I'm going to have to refresh myself on a lot...but the idea I have is the ability to create amulets and other gear which can be embued with various abilities, and those can be equipped to your Drak with a weighted inventory system, which will increase as the Drak levels up.
A LOT of changes are coming, and a lot of half finished systems are simply being done away with until I have the resources to add them. Drakiri will be a bit simpler for a while, but hopefully this means we'll be reopening soon!
I will be announcing more as it happens but the first order of business is clearing inventories via the Database, then clearing all the Drakiri.
And then I will be bringing in the new starters (Starter system is getting a complete overhaul, the existing Fault Codes are being reassigned, and when Draks are brought in, they will be assigned new fault codes and lineages. This is a fresh start. It'll help widen the gene pool and solve a lot of problems we have been having)
TL:DR
Do not be concerned when you see your inventory wiped and all your Drakiri disappear.
They are all backed up on the archive site! And there will be ways to bring them back in!
Hiatus and a MUCH NEEDED Restructuring/Improvement
Posted 1 year ago :: Last edited 1 year ago by Artha-DemonDrakiri is going into a Hiatus!
All queues are being closed down, including design approval, breeding, activities, everything.
Note that this is NOT permanent! Drakiri is NOT! shutting down!
There is no ETA for how long it will take, HOWEVER, this is so we can focus on actually going in and fixing all of the issues that have been weighing us down for ages.
Some of the things on the table first are
-Rebalancing Activity rewards
-Rebalancing breeding
-Enacting Breeding Limits
-Setting up crafting recipes
-Setting up magic spells
The bug was fixed for ages, but I never had the energy to do it
-Finish up the Zarkantas being brought in and added to the site so there can be a proper event introducing them, and so folks who have been so patient don't have to keep waiting
Additionally, the combat system, level and stats, and some other systems are actually next up on the coder's projects. So there may be some testing reopening of the queues during that time.
All current queues will be worked through whenever we have the time and energy to do it.
Some other stuff being done during this downtime includes
-Bringing all the lore and worldbuilding together, making things much more clear
-Improve Navigation and information, make things less scattered and confusing
-Making a proper map
-Making proper regions
-Reworking the activity prompts to make them much more engaging and fun
-Consolidating the worldbuilding into one place, creating a wiki with information
-Reworking the design guide
-making final, clear, consistent set of design rules, while still keeping the creative freedom we all know and love
-Outline some more rules on marking interactions
-Looking at markings, seeing if any need to be brought back from being combined
-Complete overhaul of the starters and starter system
-Fix up problems in bases, layering issues, glaring anatomy issues, there's some various "bugs" over time that have built up that I have not seen or have but never got around to fixing. Will have a channel set up to report these issues, with a form so that it's easy for me to go through and fix them without getting overwhelmed and lost
-Actually get item art, either commissioned or licensed from a paid vector stock site, then uploaded so items have art
Many Updates! (Important!)
Posted 2 years ago :: Last edited 2 years ago by Artha-DemonThese are some updates that have been announced in the Discord server, but not put here as they should be.
First, we now have Gene Limits for genes being added to a Drakiri. This will be tracked in their notes.
This is genes added on to the base geno! Carried genes brought out with a Hidden Splendor do not count towards this limit, only applicators/ability potions/Mutagens added on.
The Limits are as follows:
Common Markings: Up to 10 common markings can be added
Common Abilities: Up to 8 common abilities can be added (This only counts for abilities added from ability potions, not earned from levelling or Rites)
Uncommon Markings: Up to 8 Uncommon markings can be added on |
Uncommon Abilities: Up to 6 uncommon abilities can be added on (This only counts for abilities added from ability potions, not earned from levelling or Rites)
Rare markings: Up to 5 rare markings can be added on
Rare Abilities: Up to 5 rare abilities can be added on (This only counts for abilities added from ability potions, not earned from levelling or Rites)
Mutations: Up to 4 Mutations can be added, with an additional 5 Magic Mutations
Legendary Markings: Up to 2 can be added
Legendary Mutations: Up to 2 can be added
Legendary Abilities: Up to 2 can be added
Coat Mods: Up to two of those can be added UNLESS you are using a Coat Modifier Bundle, then the Bundle counts as one.
This limit can be refreshed ONCE with an item! (The item is not yet available, but will be soon!)
A few more changes:
When adding genes or items, please explain what is being added in the comment! If a lot of stuff is interacting, explain what is interacting with what to make the approval staff's job easier! If there is no comment explaining things, your design will be bumped with a comment asking for clarification. This will make things a ton easier on the staff, and will streamline the approval process and allow the queues to be gotten through more quickly.
Tweaks to Disappearing Inks!
Disappearing Inks had a few issues that have been ironed out!
1 - They were meant to be more expensive/harder to get than Gene Erasers... but I failed at math and they ended up being the same price since erasers are 500 Aurics and Inks were 1500 for 3 uses... which boiled down to 500 Aurics for an overpowered item
2 - Their intention was so you could hide a marking or two on a Drak that you couldn't get to work with the design As such, Disappearing Inks have gone through some changes! Disappearing Inks are now 2000 Aurics apiece, and they now only effect a single gene! Like before, there is no limit to how many you can apply to a single Drakiri, but they are more expensive and less powerful now.
MP Count Updates
A few little balance changes have been discussed and put into place!
-Master/Grandmaster/Elder/Ancient Drakiri MP bonuses no longer stack
-Leadership bonus no longer stacks
-Master/Grandmaster/Elder/Ancient bonuses have been clarified a bit to be easier to understand!
-A Gift Art bonus has been added! A Drakiri drawn as a gift receives +1 MP for themselves and for Drakiri around them. HOWEVER, you MUST have permission to use this Drakiri in a group setting for the bonus to apply to any Drakiri other than the one being done as a gift. This will either be as a note in the Drakiri’s profile, expressing that the owner is alright for them to be added to group pieces, or a comment made for this purpose as well. (The thread is located here https://drakiri.com/forum/43/~1776 )
-Gifts of Drakiri levels 0-2 will get an additional +1 MP on top of the Gift Art bonus for themselves and for Drakiri depicted with them. Like the original gift art bonus, the permission rules apply. This must be redeemed before the Drakiri is levelled up!
-Any stacking bonuses can only stack 4 times unless specified otherwise. The reason for stacking being removed once again is that the stacking actually ended up being way more overpowered than intended, and as a result was throwing off the level balance. We felt that getting rid of stacking was better than nerfing down the MP bonuses in the long run, and would still keep those rewards feeling nice and earned. If it ends up needed, the MP bonuses may get a boost to compensate for removal of stacking, but we will test how not stacking them works first.
Temporary Activity Limits
You can now have three activity rolls in the Queue at a time. However, this will cover all the Draks in the image that you own, allowing them all the be rolled! Please wait 24 hours before submitting three more if they are rolled. It is no longer a limit on how many AR's are submitted weekly, but rather by ARs in the queue at once. As for why this is, this means that when staff are more active and have more time, more AR's can be done, BUT, if they are less active or have less time, they won't be overwhealmed. This is also MUCH easier for player and staff alike to track. Players can see active/pending submissions and staff can as well. I hope this is easier on everybody! As a reminder, this is NOT a permanent update! This is only in place until the automation is complete, which will be a while. Combat and the Level/Stat system is going to be completed first, and then Automation, so that both systems can be worked on together for that; it will make altogether less work for the coder working on it. Note that Artless Activities are not effected by this! You still can do three of these a month. This is temporary!
Artless activities will each need to be done in a separate claim due to a bug in the roller connected to Artless. Any Artless activities submitted after the shut down will be rejected if they have more than one being claimed at once
Items now required for updating your Drakiri
Since Drakiri's bases are stable, as are the markings, Makeover Tokens and Beautify Potions are now required for updating a Drakiri's design! Items that have been there for ages are now finally in use! Beautify Potion - Minor tweaks, or changes to the design. These will be used for minor tweaks that do not effect the Drakiri's genotype. ABeautify Potion is not required if you are adding an accessory to your Drakiri via an item! This is only required for updates to the design. As a rule of thumb, if the Drakiri's design is staying mostly the same aside from tweaks or improvements, or you are updating an accessory already there, a Beautify Potion is required to do so! This can also be for small stylizations of the mane, tweaks to improve it, or similar. Again, a Beautify Potion is not needed if you are adding a cosmetic item! Makeover Token - Major tweaks, major redesigns. This will need to be added if you are adding markings or mutations to existing imports! Anything that greatly changes the Drakiri's appearance or effects a Drakiri's genotype (Even if you hide the marking using a Disappearing Ink) will require a Makeover Token. A Makeover Token can allow you to completely redesign a Drakiri from scratch, transfer their design to a different breed, or similar. Note that if you are updating your Drakiri from an old base to a new base, neither item is needed to make this change UNLESS there are noticeable differences in the design! This being intentional changes, not a difference in style or a marking having to look different for a different base. (Minor changes will need a Beautify Potion, major ones will need a Makeover Token) Just mention in the comments that it's a base update in this case!
Monthly Closure
For the first 7 days each month, claims will be closed to allow any outstanding stuff from the month before to be completed, and then some time for the staff to just chill without having to worry about more stuff pouring in once it's all done.
Gratitude Tokens have been Discontinued
This has been a long time coming, something I've been thinking about for over a year. Gratitude Tokens were always meant to be a nice little reward you got for being generous, but no amount of balancing will make it so they can't be farmed.
It has made gift art, and gifting in general, very transactional which ended up being really uncomfortable and meant that instead of people gifting folks just to gift folks, it turned into people exploiting other people’s Drakiri, without their permission, for the returns gained…this made a lot of people uncomfortable, and made people who wanted to do gift art afraid to do it because of the transactional feel of the entire thing... and that was never, EVER the intention.
Additionally, what is and is not a gift is very nebulous, and it is way, way too easy to trick the system for further exploitation. There really is no way to FULLY make sure, for every gift given, that it was gifted to be a gift. Which boils down to all “gifts” being turned into a transaction. It wasn’t healthy, and it was damaging our community.
As of now, Gratitude Tokens can no longer be earned. The system is being taken down and removed entirely.
The gratitude Token shop will remain, BUT, only to spend the GT you already earned.
What does this mean for all of you? There's a few choices on what you can do with your Gratitude Tokens.
1 - Trade them for Arcanium. $1 Arcanium for every 5GT. Use the "Other" claim to do this.
2 - Trade them for Aurics. 500 Aurics for every 1 Gratitude Token. Use the “Other” claim to do this.
3 - Trade them for Background Tokens. 1 Background Token for each 1 GT Use the “Other” claim to do this.
4 - Spend them in the Gratitude Token Shop, which isn’t being deleted.
5 - A combination of all of the above.
What does this mean for gifting slots and Draks, or donating slots and Draks? A new special currency is going to be added with a different purpose and different ways to get it. This currency will be paid as an option for donating genos or imports to the adoption center or releasing genos (With boosts for certain markings, starters, or genes in general that are oversaturated to encourage getting them out of the gene pool) - The system is mostly finished (I have notes down) but I am blanking on what this new currency should be called.
This new currency will only affect donated genos, imports or slots, rather than gifted ones. This will be the new way to get nice items (Markings, Mutations and Abilities) as well as a couple exclusives (Adoption Papers, maybe the occasional Advanced Adoption Papers) without having to pay USD or Arcanium, and without having to acquire them from other players via purchase or trade.
I know some of you might not like this update, but it’s been a long time coming. There is no way to make this system work without a few people farming it instead of using it as it was originally intended. This is one of those ideas that is wonderful in theory, but terrible in practice. It is, unfortunately, a case of we can’t have nice things because if something can be exploited and farmed, it will be. I have been wracking my brain for solutions, for ways to not have to get rid of the Gratitude Token system, but nothing clear came up.
This may seem drastic, but this is the only choice I can see. We want to encourage generosity, we want to encourage being nice to folks and brightening people’s days, but the transactional feeling of gift art because of the Gratitude Token system put a huge damper on that. It was always meant to be a nice little reward for being a nice person; not a resource or a currency to be earned. I am not going to be taking suggestions on this matter, this is something I’ve been thinking about for a LONG time. And it’s honestly necessary.
I am sorry for anybody who is upset with this change, but sometimes changes like this are necessary for a healthy game moving forward.
Double Uterus Tweaks
Double Uterus is going back to how it functioned before the site. This means that items/abilities that increase litter sizes no longer effect Double Uterus breedings. Making it no longer disable fertility abilities/items was experimental, and I think it's better balanced if it overrides those! It is being modified so the breeding doesn't fail if the item is added in, but rather outputs that the item was not used due to so it can be refunded back to the player
HOWEVER! There is a Double Uterus Disabler item that's gonna be added to the Auric Shop and to the roller, allowing you to use fertility items INSTEAD of Double Uterus if you prefer! This can be useful if you added DU, but have lore reasons not to have it take effect for a certain breeding, or if you want to control the number of genos a Drakiri puts out.
Beauty in Simplicity Pageant Event
Beauty in Simplicity Beauty Pageant
A special event in Drakiri, a contest of sorts!
Sometimes, beauty comes in simpler designs; one doesn't need brilliant colors and intricate markings to be beautiful!
Depict your Drakiri (Written or drawn) showing off their beauty! This event has a few special rules, however!
This will need to be a fullbody flat colored image with at least a simple background, or 800 words written showcasing the Drakiri's beauty.
1 - The Drakiri may not have more than 6 visible markings (Disappearing Inks count as visible markings for this contest), and can not have more than 2 mutations!
2 - The Drakiri can not have a legendary gene (Marking or Mutation)
3 - No more than 2 color mods can be visible on the Drakiri
Enter using the "Beauty in Simplicity Beauty Pageant Entries" claim!
Prizes
First Place
$150 Arcanium
100,000 Aurics
A Double Uterus mutation added to the winning Drakiri. HOWEVER, if more markings are added, the mutation will be removed. They must remain simple to keep this prize! (There will be a note on the mutation)
Roller Breaker Item
Second Place
$80 Arcanium
50,000 Aurics
Ancient Fertility Statue
Third Place
$50 Arcanium
25,000 Aurics

All entries will get 3000 Aurics and 1 normal breeding item in addition to the aurics earned by general art!
HAVE FUN!!!!!!!
And finally, our October Trick or Treat event!!
ANY artwork (That has at least a flat color, or a literature of 500 or more words) will have a loot table added; this loot table will give you 5, 10, 15, 20 or 25 Halloween Candy, which can be used in a special Halloween shop!
In this shop, you can get the Halloween genes, Wraith mutagen, Corruption mutagens (With a few Entropy thrown in), and Nightmare breed changes!
While you can't redeem art for it YET, I will sell bundles of these Halloween candy for 10 candies for every $5 USD (No Arcanium at this time, since they will be perfectly earnable once everything opens back up. This is just for those of you who are impatient)
This was a lot, but now it is all in one place. Thanks for reading!

The only limits to a Full Custom is the number of Legendaries that can be put on one Geno.
If no Legendaries are chosen, they will gain their own fault codes which will be added in to the roller, making them completely unrelated to any other Drakiri with those markings, even rare ones.
As a note, you MAY apply this to a Drakiri you already own to have their lineage wiped (Other than Legendaries) (Optionally, this can update any of their offspring as well) and have their own fault codes added. (This won't effect any offspring they already have)
$1200 flat price (For now, these will eventually be auction only)
-Payment Plans allowed, can be discussed
-Limit of 1 Legendary Marking.
-Limit of 1 Legendary Mutation
-Limit of 1 Legendary Ability
-Additional Legendaries can be added with an Applicator, but these will give you a Legendary Starter and the attached Legendary Fault Code.
-Limit of 30 markings
-Limit of 12 Mutations
-Limit of 12 Abilities
-More Abilities, Mutations and Markings can be added using Applicators. Only Legendaries will add fault codes and a starter if the one allowable Legendary is already used.
-Up to 3 common genes, 2 uncommon genes and 1 rare gene can be made Dominant.
-Can be ANY Breed or Crossbreed
-Can use ANY Physical traits
-Comes with any cosmetic items you would like to add, even a Custom Base Token to be used on your full custom. Meaning you can draw it yourself or have somebody else draws it. (These rules are WIP, however; and this feature is not ready yet. The fact that it is a full custom will be noted in the geno's description for records so this can be upgraded to a custom base done by you or another artist you commissioned once that is done)
-They will get their own set of unique Fault Codes UNLESS extra Legendaries are added.
Payment Plans are absolutely allowed! 25% should be paid up front, and the rest can be discussed. Note that if you change your mind, you won't receive a refund, HOWEVER, you will get Arcanium for the amount paid. If you want to start the payment plan back up, it WILL be allowed, and the Arcanium will simply go back into the purchase if you haven't spent it already! If you have, however, you will have to start a new purchase.
Character Transfer Tokens
Limit of 3 per user per sale
Have a beloved OC you would like to see in Drakiri's playground? Buy an adoptable that you wish could be in an ARPG? Did you sink time and money into an ARPG, only for it to shut down and leave you high and dry? Did you leave an ARPG for some reason or other, but really miss that special Import that meant so much to you over time, and dread starting all over again in a new ARPG? Do you want to explore other versions of your ARPG character for paralell universe shennanigans? Then this is the place for you! For drastically reduced prices, far cheaper than a Semicustom, you can transfer your character in to the big sandbox that is Drakiri-ARPG! If they have art done of them, this gets counted towards MP, and if they had breeding rites completed for the ARPG they came from, they will have breeding rites active here, too!
RULES
- You must own the character and have proof that you own them. You must have owned this character for at least three months.
- They should resemble the character being transferred, to remain recognizable, however you are allowed to add on rewards you would have gotten from the other RPG, and you may add applicators, mutagens, and ability potions.
- If the character is a human/humanoid, you are fully allowed to make this their humanoid form, with just a few things added to make them recognizeable as Drakiri. The rule of having a ref of their humanoid form still apply.
- If they are an ARPG import, the original can absolutely still remain yours, and still be in use. Art done of the original will not count towards their Drakiri form after the date of their transfer, but everything from before will be transferred over. In fact, there will be an MP bonus (+2 MP) if both versions of the character are depicted together!
- This can not be used for genos! Same rules as Imports. This should be for genos from ARPG's that are dead, or ARPG's you have already left. You must own the geno. While it can not be enforced, it is preferred that you do not sell or use the geno in the ARPG it came from if it's one you left.
- If transferring an existing import, we ask that you keep true to the original so they are recognizable, but encourage changes to make the character closer to your dream of what they could be, and make them fit into the Drakiri genetics better. If these changes fall under the price of the transfer token, then you don't have to upgrade it to add things!
- You may not sell or trade the transferred Import or Geno for at least 3 months. You may gift it, though, and you may purchase tokens/transfers for your friends!

May Updates
Posted 3 years ago :: Last edited 3 years ago by Artha-DemonWe've gotten some pretty big updates lined up for May!
https://drakiri.com/info/level-guides
Due to how many MP bonuses there are, levelling ended up becoming very imbalanced, allowing you to climb to end game levels pretty quickly! It was to the point where I was having to nerf a lot of the bonuses, and I didn't like that.
As such, levels have been updated!
Level 1 is now 100 MP, BUT!!!! You still get auto levelled if you complete all 3 Rites of Passage! (Formerly 80)
Level 2 is now 200, about double what it takes to get to Level 1 (Formerly 160)
Level 3 is now 350, just a bit less than half what it takes to get to Level 2 (Formerly 300)
Level 4 is now 600, just a bit less than doubling what it takes to get to Level 3 (Formerly 450)
Level 5 is now 900, a bit less than doubling what it takes to get to level 4 (Formerly 700)
The Specialty Levels have changed too, but not as much!
Grandmaster (Level 6 for rolling purposes) is 1300 (Instead of 1200)
Elder (Level 7 for rolling purposes) is still 1800
Ancient is still 3000 Once trophies are added in, a to be decided amount of MP past Ancient will get you a trophy that will come with a lil' item pack with a note next to the Ancient level! The change isn't TOO much! What does this mean for you? Well, if your Drakiri is already levelled, you can file a claim to fill in the missing MP for that level, but if they are not levelled yet, you'll need to use the new MP counts for future levelling. The change isn't drastic, but I hope this balances things a bit better without creating an endless grind!
With this being said!!! A lot of the bonus nerfs have been lifted making bonuses more worth it and making this have not too much effect for those who wanna put the work in!
From the Guide:
- Starter: +3 per Starter (Stack with eachother and with Unowned Drakiri)
- Unowned Drakiri: +1 (Stacks up to 5 and with the Starter bonus)
- Other Species: +1 (This can be from another ARPG, or another person's species, or your own species. Real animals don't count for this. Up to 4 of these can stack!)
- Non-Commissioned: +1 (This art was not commissioned. Either you received it as a gift, or you drew it yourself)
- Collaberation or RP: +2
- Master Drakiri: +2 (Stacks with Unowned and Starter bonus and stacks with eachother)
- Activities/Prompts: +2
- Accurate Sky: +2 (Sky Reference link coming soon!)
- Companion: +2 (Some Companion items will have some minor MP bonuses both for the Drakiri that is bonded to the companion and Drakiri depicted with the one bonded to the companion)
- Leadership Ability: +3 (Stacks with Drakiri that have Leadership)
- Depicted with a Grandmaster Drakiri: +4 MP Bonus (This is instead of the Master bonus)
- Depicted with an Elder Drakiri: +6 MP Bonus (This is isntead of the Master and/or Grandmaster Bonus)
- Depicted with an Ancient Drakiri: +8 MP Bonus (This is instead of the Master/Grandmaster/Elder bonus)
- Master/Apprentice Bonus: When a Drakiri takes an Apprentice, they get a special bonus when depicted together. +3 MP goes to the Master AND the Apprentice! Do not confuse this with the Level 5 bonus. This stacks with the Level 5 bonus/any other bonus)
Read more here! Mana Points Guide
Additionally, applicators/mutagens/ability potions now have a limit for how many can be added to a single Drakiri.
April Updates
Posted 3 years ago :: Last edited 3 years ago by Artha-DemonWith april, comes a few special events about a certain Error that comes to play in the world of Galabastarin! A Drakiri that exists, but shouldn't. Doesn't exist... but somehow seems to.
The one and only... Error-404!
This is the only time of year that you can get special Ultra Wildcards, which is what is generated and bred with your Drakiri when you procure a slot! This is also the only time of year that you can get an Error 404 slot!
There is a way to get one for free... Draw your Drakiri encountering the Error. How you depect this eldritchy glitched Errored Drakiri is entirely up to you, since it is never the same in any given moment! You will get a full Error 404 slot in return! You can purchase more from the sale, both for Arcanium, and for USD!
There will be another way to get a slot, announced in the Discord, so make sure you stay active and keep an eye out so you don't miss out! If you acquire two Error-404 slots, you can breed them with eachother.
In other news, we have had a lot of developement done!
1 - The activity reward system has been entirely overhauled to be much more fair for everybody! You'll be getting more and better rewards, and the stats actually help this even more!
2 - We have some new abilities! Bard, which currently acts like Promiscuous, but breeds with a randomly generated geno but will have more effects in battles! Adventurous, which gives bonuses to Dungeon Crawling and Rifting.
3 - Artless activities have gotten a pretty nice buff!
4 - Some clarification on the specialty levels has been added! They are now called Grandmaster (6), Elder (7) and Ancient (8). Also clarifying that these specialty levels are not actually official proper levels and do not give as much of a boost as the first five levels, as Level 5 is the endgame for Drakiri with the specialty levels just giving another special reward
5 - For every 1000 MP after Ancient, there will be a special little item pack as a thank you for your time and dedication!
6 - Charisma now boosts Aurics gained in activities! Each 1 Charisma stat point gives a 2% boost
7 - A new item is available for sale throughout this month, called "Go Fuck Yourself"! This allows a Drakiri to be bred fully with themself. If you do not own the Drakiri, you will need to use a slot, and you will need two slots to use them on eachother, and will need the permission of the Drakiri's owner.
8 - Lengendary Blood has been edited and balanced. It now has an effect on all marking rarities, and won't make legendaries pass like candy anymore. Legendaries will be special and rare again!
9 - We should have recipe categories soon, so that crafting, magic, alchemy, and cooking can get groundwork added!
10 - And finally, working on adding an update to allow trophies and awards!
And finally finally... Drakiri is gonna be getting much more and much faster improvements now that I have good, steady money to pay coders! We are screaming closer and closer to completion, rejoice!!!!!
Current Events
Encountering the Error
Requirements: A drawing or written piece of your Drakiri encountering the Error. Should be flat colored with at least a simple background, fullbody or almost fullbody. (However you can get creative with the angles and composition without worry!) If written, it should be 1000+ words, +150 words per Drakiri added for doing multiple Draks for Error genos.
Special Notes: You may only get a single full slot to the Error with this event. You can, however, do art for other players, though they will need to redeem it for their full slot. You can, however, do this event again for a single geno breeding between the Drakiri depicted and the Error for a single geno as many times as you can draw it in the month! Unlike the full slot, this won't be able to use any items, but will be effected by abilities outside of litter increasing abilities. It will only ever be a single geno, since this can't be split. If you have a slot to the Drakiri, you may use that, but it will use your slot; otherwise, you will need to use your own. No more than three Drakiri can be depicted in this event Image and get the rewards.
