Canuka Where does your username come from? I used to do a lot of furry anthro RPs with a group of friends when I was younger; 'Canuka' was the last name for a couple of characters and one of the cities. What are you passionate about on Wajas? I just love making designs based on a video game or character from a game, which I somehow click better with than making other designs. I find it cool about how you can play around with the markings to see what looks right, and with being able to make crafts you can tailor accessories to make that Waja representation of that game or character better. What do you collect? (On Wajas, irl, or both!)? On Wajas, I collect lab coats! I actually don't have much of a collection apart from an assortment of video games, a couple of board games, and a bunch of books. Share one of your fondest memories related to Wajas. Between 2015 to 2017, I hosted a pretty big thread ca

Undertide dragons get a new coat of paint in today's update




Undertide Parallel Genes
58 Additional genes are now available on for Undertide dragons! A gene catalogue of all available Undertide genes has been added to the encyclopedia.

Undertide Parallel Genes
...and this guy.

Gene Art Error Updates:
All reported errors in the previously available gene error threads have been brought up-to-date with corrections for reported issues and closed out in preparation for universal modern and ancient technical gene error threads, and future new-release focus threads.


Corrected Gene Error Threads 2023:

• The gene error thread for Confirmed Gene Errors (universal) 2023 has been corrected and brought completely up-to-date. This thread has been closed out.
• The gene error thread for Aberration Errors has been corrected and brought completely up-to-date. This thread has been closed out.
• The gene error thread for Auraboa Errors has been corrected and brought completely up-to-date. This thread has been closed out.
• The gene error thread for Aether Errors has been corrected and brought completely up-to-date. This thread has been closed out.
• The gene error thread for Sandsurge Errors has been corrected and brought completely up-to-date. This thread has been closed out.

Ancient Gene Parchments
As Ancients begin to share more and more Ancient-exclusive genes, we wanted to provide a solution to duplicate genes generated from site-activities such as Coliseum, Swipp, Baldwin, Arlo, and Avery.

These trade-in items can be used at Glass and Gloss' Genuine Genes to trade for any type of Ancient that has that gene available. Ie: Swipp won't have 4 different "Tertiary Gene: Branches" trades, but will have one universal "Ancient Gene Parchment: Branches" trade. This item could then be used to trade in for any of the 4 breeds that have Branches available at Glass and Gloss.

The following items have been added:

Marketplace Changes
Alongside today's content update, we have implemented changes to how the Marketplace functions:

The Genes section has been split in two tabs; there are now dedicated tabs for items related to Ancient breed dragons, and items related to Modern breed dragons.



It should now be easier to locate the item you're looking for. The sorting and filtering options have also been adjusted to work within these new tabs and their constraints.

Secondly, we modified the stocking behavior to account for this split. Due to the now vast array of genetic items, it seemed appropriate that they should be treated both visually and technically separate in this feature.

Meaning: Ancient gene items and Modern gene items will no longer compete against one another for placement in the stocking logic. You are likely now to see more options more often for each category because the Marketplace is treating them as unique sets of merchandise.




Ancient Gene Bloat:
We want to acknowledge once more the sheer amount of items that ancient genes present and how they are negatively impacting player experience by being difficult to acquire and search for. We apologize for this, and are working to improve these issues.

A few solutions are already in place. We wanted to communicate that these solutions are not where we are stopping with better availability and searchability when it comes to our genes.

• Glass and Gloss's shop has to helped address the multiple copies of genes appearing across site-earned activities by allowing the trade in of the modern version for the Ancient.
• New naming conventions have helped to isolate modern and ancient genes in the game database and auction house searches.
• Today's update has provided separated modern and ancient marketplace tabs, with separate stocking rules.
• Today's update has consolidated ancient-exclusive genes earned from site activities into Ancient gene parchments that may be traded at Glass and Gloss.

Plans for the future:
Our engineering team is currently hard at work on the Skin System Revamp, Coliseum PVP, backend improvements, and wrapping up the refactors for the last stray areas of the site operating on our legacy code. After the skin system revamp has been completed, gene availability improvements are at the top of our engineering priority list for 2024.

We will improving filtering across the site for easier targeted searches, and looking at ways to reduce the size of some of the dropdowns that have grown unwieldly.

Thank you for your patience as we work to address these issues. We are excited for what 2024 will bring!

Simba Where does your username come from? I was born the year Lion king came out and I have a stuff animal of simba that was my favorite as a kid. I still own it and that poor thing has seen some things. But that is where my username comes from. What are you passionate about on Wajas? I'm passionate about catching up to sparkys custom number.  Sparky: 732  Simba: 164 I'm almost there.  What do you collect? (On Wajas, irl, or both!)? LEMONS I like collecting gen 2's and items so I can dress up my wajas nicely. In real life I have a mini hoard of stuff animals and a unhealthy amount of books. Both seem to continue growing. Share one of your fondest memories related to Wajas. The day I joined the STS staff, I was nervous at first you know cause Bluee and Sadi are 'very' scay. But I feel like I have gotten to know everyone in the group and have enjoyed their friendships. Where are you from
