Hello Sprouts,

I am happy to announce that we have uploaded what we can, and the visual masterlist is LIVE. Please remember that if you encounter bugs or have ideas for quality-of-life changes you should post suggestions to our feedback box https://www.deviantart.com/comments/1/740028878/4586541946!

This is the base version of the Masterlist. As time goes on and we add more features, the masterlist will change to accommodate other automated areas.

What Can I Do Myself:
- Apply all cosmetics yourself except Dye Use (yes if you apply enough mutation fruits you get the status)
- Remove Relationships yourself
- Add Pets, Smols, and Chronopods to your Griffolk’s and Companions’ inventories
- Add Biographies (Missues of this box will result in bans or loss of ARPG privileges. No sexual themes, cursing, or harassment.)

What I need a Mod to do:
- Apply Trials
- Apply Dye Use
- Apply Tokens
- Apply base relationships
- Apply Sidekicks (Magic Familiar/Eather Beasts)
- Apply charged Chronopods to your time activities
- Transfer Characters

My Griffolk has no art?:
As we stated in the last news update, there is some art we do not own and the original artist has deleted it. There is nothing we can do about this. We have all of this art saved in an archive, but we do not have the right to just upload and host it somewhere due to DMCA. You as a player also cannot host others’ art without permission. This predominantly affects the parasplicers and cafflufles. Dye approval and Avatar approval moderators will have access to the original images, so players can still use Dyes, and draw avatars based on the originals. If players need the original image of any of these Griffians, please note the group and we will do our best to help you.

The best we can suggest to you is to draw an avatar of these Griffolk. We deeply apologize for the inconvenience.

My Griffolk has no art - I own a Love Item Griffian, CYO, Maze/Haze, or formerly Retired Species:
We do not own your art! You are required to host these images, not us! All Love Item Griffians, CYO, Maze/Haze, or formerly Retired Species art goes under avatar - meaning you need to provide us a stable DA link to these images and reply https://www.deviantart.com/comments/1/820829969/4795375253 to have them applied to your Griffian.

Diamons or former Mod Monsters
Diamons - formerly known as Mod Monsters - have gone through a lot of changes in their time in Griffia. They are now under the Facet species. Rather than upload the old looks, we wanted to leave it up to players. If you would like to apply your Diamons’ art to the ML it will need to be applied https://www.deviantart.com/comments/1/820829969/4795375253. It will go under the avatar section. 

Companions Layered with Griffolk
Some companions were drawn in images with Griffolk. The original GA will be drawing new official art for free for those players affected. They will be rebased as they were in the original art. This is not a free rebase, just a courtesy. They may be on a base, or may be hand drawn. It is up to the original artist. 


Free to make Species
If you made any free species you need to re apply their original art to get them on the Masterlist. If players registered free species and then deleted the art, then there is no art! Provide us a stable DA link to these images and reply https://www.deviantart.com/comments/1/820829969/4795375253

I have an official rebase, it is not on the Visual Masterlist
Provide us a stable DA link to these images and reply https://www.deviantart.com/comments/1/820829969/4795375253

I want to upload a form of my Griffolk to one of my avatar slots
Provide us a stable DA link to these images and reply https://www.deviantart.com/comments/1/820829969/4795375253

I want to add my trial art to my Griffolk
Uploads for avatars are going to be high in volume, so in the meantime, we will not be accepting trial art additions until the event is over and we catch up on the initial wave of avatars.

More of these “mod required” features will eventually be automated so that we can move staff off approvals. We are currently working on automating our shops/markets. Hoobus and Boobus might get some changes, since it has not been touched since its inception, and it was made before the void well. Hoobus and Boobus was an early version of the current void well.

After that, we intend to automate player-to-player transfers of items, to enable instant trading. We have more plans after that, but we are focusing on one feature at a time. We hope you enjoy this update.
