Welcome!
The thread is now open!
Feel free to check out my other misc. projects here.


About this project

The concept of this "mega-project" is to breed a sylesti for each of the 12 major gods and goddesses of Olympus, as well as the Underworld (making it 14 in total). They will be different species and different color schemes, each chosen to reflect the gods' personalities and characteristics.

Why am I doing this? Basically, just 'cause.
I've had this idea rolling around in my head for ages.
Mythology has always been an interest of mine, and I know that many people share this interest. I'd actually be astounded if this turned out to be the first time a project like this has popped up.

Anyway! In short, this mega-project will consist of 14 different projects. I've elected to make each one with 4 visible traits. This is to keep it manageable for me, as well as to avoid too much of a "cluttered" look on the pets. I chose each trait for a reason - I want them to be clear!

Updates
12/27/16: Artemis pair finished! Apollo, Hades and Persephone are next.
3/11/16: Generation 1 Artemis and Apollo Luffoxes have been generated!
3/5/16: Added an alternate Dionysus. Artemis/Apollo project to begin soon!
2/10/16: Added an alternate version of Aphrodite and Desiree's alternate Hephaestus for consideration.

Comments
so I've re-thought Hera a little - though I don't like the peacock trait with this color scheme, she does need something more tying her to her animal. So I'm doing my best to like Paradise Tail:

I'm still torn though. I really like Magic Spell. we'll see...

HEPHAESTUS

Comments
Not particularly attached to these two designs - critiques and advice are appreciated! I may wait until the Bulbori revamp rolls around to commit to an Aphrodite design. I've committed. The design shown above is the goal for Aprodite, until the revamp rolls around and I have to do her over again :>
9/26: I've tweaked Hephaestus in a way that I like much better, so I think he'll be staying as shown above!

-Currently working on these guys. I have all the traits I need, and a few vis mixed in - just gotta keep breeding! :)
Persephone was given the same color scheme as Demeter to reflect their bond as daughter and mother, but she is portrayed as a vulnyx to demonstrate her formidable role as Hades' queen.

Pricing

Each completed project pet will cost 40,000 goldor 15 diamonds

HOWEVER:
By purchasing finished project offspring, you are eligible to receive a discount for any future purchases from these projects!

Please consult the following chart for discount information.

First pet purchased.........................40,000 gold OR 15 diamonds
Second pet purchased.........................10% off (36,000 gold OR 13 diamonds)
Third pet purchased.........................15% off (34,000 gold OR 12 diamonds)
Fourth pet purchased.........................20% off (32,000 gold OR 11 diamonds)
Fifth pet purchased.........................25% off (30,000 gold OR 10 diamonds)
Sixth and up.........................50% off (20,000 gold OR 8 diamonds)

If you have questions about pricing, feel free to ping me here!
I've never used a price guide like this so I'm completely open to suggested improvements!

Keep an eye out for holiday discounts - they'll pop up around festivals!
Holiday discounts will override the prices on the chart - so for example, if you purchase your 3rd pet during a holiday, you'll pay the holiday price but still receive the 4th pet discount on your next pet (unless that one is also purchased during a holiday sale, lol).
