Happy Lunar New Year!
It's the Year of the Whalecow, which is always sure to make a splash!
To celebrate this alternate calendar's change to the new year, we have a shop update of many new items! We'll also be having something of a miniature event in the Community Discussions > Community Contests forums.
Li Mei is hosting a "red packet" give-away where you can get items from the store update. You can also learn more about the Lunar New Year and how it's recognized on the islands of The Chain by visiting Li Mei's thread. So please drop by and see how you can earn yourself a gift!
If parties are more your thing,
Aimee is hosting a little get-together thread where you can discuss the Lunar New Year, red packets, and your Chain Zodiac animal. I'm the Bunnyfish, for anyone who was curious!
Store Update
We have a wonderful pile of exotic Eastern clothing and items for you to purchase (or receive) in a variety of colors.
For the playful and energetic, might I suggest the Chinese Silk Tops and Chinese Silk Pants? Embroidered slippers fill out the set.
Ladies whose tastes run more towards the formal may appreciate the new Silken Gowns. Or for something slightly less formal, she may enjoy the long and short Cheongsams. An Oriental Lantern may draw attention to how lovely you look! (Of course, gentlemen may choose to carry them as well!)
Gentlemen may appreciate the off-the-shoulder Silken Robes for the opportunity to display the new Dragon Tattoos or for the chance to show off their physique from working out with the Pudao of Good Fortune. (Ladies may also wear the dragons and wield the pudao, if they are so inclined!)
And if all that exercise gets you a touch peckish - we have a variety of Eastern street foods for you to sample!
The items are available in the following stores:
-
Snack Attack (food items: 200g and 225g) <--
