Here's how to buy a token. You must be logged in to view the shop. DM a staff on discord with any questions; no question is dumb or silly, especially given our shop system is confusing at first glance, and hasn't been done before.
1. To view the shop, click on either of these nifty things. The shop is also linked in our portals channel.
2. Find the item you'd like and click add to pouch. THIS DOES NOT PURCHASE THE ITEM. It adds it to your pouch to confirm purchasing when ready. You can make sure you have enough mousetails by checking your profile!
3. When ready, click the pouch link at the top. It should have a number beside it representing the number of items inside of your pouch. Keep in mind that for new characters, whatever rarity you buy will also need a character slot. Think of a character slot as a 'base' to apply things to.
4. You should be brought to your pouch area, where you can click the buy button. One last menu will appear to confirm the purchase. Lotsa button clicking, I know.
5. You have purchased the item! You can view it and make sure you've purchased it by clicking on your profile.
CHARACTER LOGS: This area is for when you are making a brand spanking new character. Here, you will be asked what tokens you are using. You can apply a genetic rarity token here, or something else that is generally important to note on character creation that you had to purchase. Besides, of course, an additional character slot to even make/log the character to begin with.
If you purchased an albino token and now wish to make an albino character, you would mention that here. Tokens for new characters on character creation are logged in this channel.
CHARACTER LOG EXAMPLE:
name: Shalestar
age: 40 moons
gender: tom
clan: WillowClan
rank: leader!
familial ties: None that he is aware of.
history summary: He was a MEAN KITTEN and now he is doing his best as leader.
applied tokens: this is my first character so i dont need to buy anything yeehaw
face claim: (photo here)
TOKEN USE: If a token is being used on an existing character, or pertains to an out-of-character situation, then it would be logged here. You can log the use of a raffle ticket here, or a vet visit token; these tokens are either out-of-character based, or being applied to someone already logged.
TOKEN USE EXAMPLE:
(there is no required form to use here)
Using VET VISIT token for Shalestar as he has been gravely injured.
LITTER LOGS: If you are making a litter, you may log it here. If you are purchasing tokens for that litter, for instance you wish for your queen to birth a male tortie or an albino, you will include the purchase of these tokens so that they may be removed from your inventory.
Otherwise, litter logs is just to tell us your character will be having kits, and if any purchased things are being applied to the litter.
Once someone has adopted out a kit or been assigned to play a kit, please remind them to fill out a character-log as normal. If their kit has a genetic rarity token applied that you have already purchased and logged, all they need to do is note this in their character-log when they go to log their new cute kitten!
LITTER LOGS EXAMPLE:
queen description: an ugly round she cat with rugged ratty fur. Purslanesnap, warrior of BoarClan.
father of litter: he is too ashamed to admit, and will remain unnamed
number of kits: 6
description of each kit: I will be letting the kit RPers name themselves, but they will all look similar to Purslanesnap; dirty brown, rugged and curly fur, round heads. Names will be logged in character-logs when kits are claimed.
are you applying any tokens to this litter?: lucky litter, albino.
Basically the idea is to just log what the token is being used for and when, so that it may be removed from your inventory by staff and not re-used.
Final notes:
- Filling out the forms when a token is used is required. It takes twenty seconds to do! If you forget to once or twice, no biggie, but if we have to repeatedly warn you, you may be kicked.
- Remember that an item purchase doesn't go through unless you've made it all the way to the purchase confirmation window.
- Things like male torties do not equate character slots: they are things you can apply to a character slot.
- You do not need to purchase special things or fill out a form for your first character; right now, we offer creative free will on your first kitty with no token limitations. Just make sure they follow the bans and encouragements list, linked to the left here on the site!

USING A TOKEN
You may hoard tokens all you want without logging them, but once you would actually like to USE them, all you need to do is head to either of the three channels depending on your intentions. Then, click the pins for the forms or other necessary information. CHARACTER LOGS: This area is for when you are making a brand spanking new character. Here, you will be asked what tokens you are using. You can apply a genetic rarity token here, or something else that is generally important to note on character creation that you had to purchase.
