Wintertusk, Crab Alley, Krokosphinx and more

Lately, Z and I have been running around the spiral on two accounts each. Trying to level up my theurgist (first ever) and his diviner, (first ever) on our side accounts, whilst still questing on our main accounts. Now that we've caught Valdus and Karic up with Alura and Fallon, we are running the four of them, lovingly nicknamed by us "The Dream Team" together. Makes questing go so  much faster, and smoother. It also helps that we have two healers at all times making sure everyone stays alive. Currently they are in GH and KT.

Wizard vs Real Life

Ok so I'm not able to get in as much wizard101 time as I would like thanks to work, school, & now also my internet connection. My household has been having issues connecting & staying connected to the Internet the last couple of days. My dad says he is gonna give it a couple of weeks (like 1 or 2) before he once again starts calling & complaining because the problem could be somewhere in one of the fire damaged areas in town. Yea we had some fires in my city this past weekend, but no one was actually physically hurt as far as I know. & it looks like my connection is being friendly again so I can post this myself.

Here is what I worked on in wizard: Grace's garden, which contains about 7 pink dandelion & 1 silver trumpet vine. She is currently the only one of my characters that I'm doing a garden for right now because of my limited time online. I also worked on leveling up some of my baby pets because I want them to be adults so that one day I'll be able to add them to the list of pets X & Z have on here that can be hatched with. Right now I have a satyr & a fierce hound as adults & am currently working on my pet rock which is in it's teens right now. When I run out of energy for that then I can usually be found running around on Christina (my ice char) working on her quests, which currently has her in Knights Court (I think that's the name. I know it's knights something) in MB.

I hath achieved eternal greatness;

At least on my main alt, Kieran Storm. Only things I really need to work on for him, are a few badges here and there. Mostly the ones in MB because as much as I love the world, and it may be my favorite, I absolutely hate running around there. I have achieved the title of Grandmaster Gardener. I did this a couple weeks ago, but I've been sick, and busy writing another blog that I was hoping would be finished by now, but its not..due to some confusing stuff (at least in my mind) that I need to sort out with it, before publishing.

Yes, I was using Silver Trumpet Vines, but it just so happens that's all I really was benefiting from harvest wise. In terms of what it gives. I plan on when I have more time and opportunity, making space for lots and lots of plants. But right now I'm also trying to level up some of my pets which means I can't be using my energy on gardening. Maybe when the new update comes out where we gain energy faster, but as of right now. Nope. Currently on Kieran I'm farming the REAL Cuthalla that drops Spiny Fish. No luck yet. So wish me luck please. I really want that pet!

Alura gets her minion.

X and I have been running around with Grace on my life char (Alura), X's balance char (Fallon) and Grace's storm char (Kristen). We've been doing Krokotopia together and believe me when I say this, its so different running around with such low health compared to running around in higher up worlds on our other chars. We seem to be doing fine though. Fallon is kicking butt. :D X is finally getting a taste of what its like to be Tristan. And, I'm getting a taste of what Grace does. And, she's getting a taste of what X does. :p Seriously now though, we've all finally reached level 18 (or in our case now, 20) and X and I both took screenies of what we're doing for our level 18 quests since we've never done this before. I'm sure he'll be blogging about his 18 quest soon enough. But, here's where Alura first starts.

Short and Sweet

This post is going to be verrry short. Why? Because I spent all my free time playing on wiz, farming, questing, etc etc, and now I am just too tired to actually write out the post that I was going to for today. I had planned on writing a blog post in my baby wizards eyes, Fallon Moon, sorcerer. Since, she leveled up to 18, and received her quest to get her minion. But, I'm too tired, like I said. Getting sick, more so am sick, with a cold, and I'm praying it doesn't turn in to another infection, because I really don't want to go back to the hospital.

Danger Hound and Gardening in Wizard? Good-Bye Farmville!

So, after waiting forever, and debating if we really should contact KI about our missing danger hound codes, we finally went ahead and contacted them, asking if we could please get our codes resent or something to us. Took almost the entire day yesterday of writing back and forth, but in the end WE GOT OUR DANGER HOUNDS. Mine was named Hunter, right off the bat so I left it there. That sounds like a good name for a Danger hound, right? I think so anyway. Still trying to get a fierce hound, by hatching with Z's fierce hound. No luck. Still haven't heard word of whether or not its even possible to get one through hatching. 

I'm guessing no news is good news? Lets hope. Leveled my Starfish to adult, but no spritely yet. Really wanting a spinyfish but I refuse to buy it with crowns. I want it to hatch with my zilla time and again to get some decent stats finally. One thing that was disheartening was with KI support, and how it seemed with every message they sent to us, it just 'felt' like it was a totally different person on the other end, who didn't bother to read the messages before. By them, or by us. Very indifferent and impersonal. One said they could help with our level 48 pets, and the other said the complete opposite. Before we got our DH's they were wanting our Central emails to make sure they had the codes available for us, and the next email, about 20 minutes later from them was "The danger hound contest is over, so we can not help you." and left it at that.

Like I said, it felt like random people were just picking up the email and answering it how they felt like at the time, regardless the situation was already being resolved by someone else. In the end though, as stated before, we did manage to finally acquire our Danger Hounds. Woot. Contest news: the winners have been selected, and they will be receiving an email from us some time today, where we can then discuss meeting times and conclude how the hatching/merc days will work out. Thank you to all who entered, we enjoyed reading your stories, etc.

Now, on to Farming. Farm games is probably a really big thing for me and Z. We each love farm games, but separately. Personally, we hate Farmville by Zynga, but there are other farm games that we love. Like Country Story. Its safe to say he and I are both stoked with the new updates secretly found on the TR. At first we were apprehensive to get on, since it does say OFFLINE. However, with as many people on the TR, and submitting Bug Reports, etc. I believe KI is aware that they are there, and get this, they don't mind! Or, at least if they did, they know how and are capable of kicking everyone off and closing the TR for reals.

We first entered on to the test using my screen name. Funnily, we see that Kieran is only level 59. That shows how long this has been implemented in to the test realm. He's been at 60 for over a week now. Of course when we saw we could plant stuff, my MB manor came to mind as the perfect place to do so. I mean, after all, it has a green house on site! :D So, we head over to Farley and do his little quests, yada yada, you can read all about that stuff on the blogs found on our blog roll. :P No need to contribute completely to redundancy. ;)  Then we head over to Kieran's MB Mansion and start planting. 

Think he wants to hear music? I do.

These rank one plants don't require much at all, but I've read (from same said blogs on the right) that the higher rank ones require much more tending too. Which, okay. That's usually how it works with these games. Easy firsts, harder seconds. One thing I did ask of KI was that if they are going to use Pet Energy, maybe they could up the max pet energy by 20 or so. I barely have enough PE it seems to level up my pets, but now it needs to be shared for farming? Eek. We went ahead and bought the beast master clothing set on test to up our pet energy by some, but it isn't something we would want in live. 

Raining outside, now inside. Woot.

Newly planted little bud. Isn't it cute? Lol.

 Definitely think I personally am going to like this expansion to the game.  Wont miss playing Country Story as much, since I'll kind of have it in Wizard. Now if some how we could run our own restaurant (or at least implement cooking in some way) in the game, I'd be set! Love me some restaurant games, like Country Story's sister game Restaurant City. Playfish really know how to keep me entertained, and its safe to say Wizard has them beat! Go Kingisle! Haha. Now lets take a look at Kash's garden, via his Krokotopian House.

Here he is pollinating the entire crop using a treasure card from Moolinda's TCP in the Crown Shop

Moolinda's TCP; Gives pretty awesome cards for those of you who have lots of crops

You..light up my...life.........

Sing....sing a song.....sing along....

Ahaha, okay. I'm done playing around. Seriously though, LOVE this new idea. Rock on, err Plant on KI! This expansion gives a whole new meaning to FARMING. Ha!

/Feels like playing Harvest Moon now...any takers? :P

Happy Wizarding everyone!

P.S. Happy Birthday Vanessa from Diviners Lane!

The Ravenbloods Prism Death, again

Mycin and Mason made it to level 18 finally, receiving their death prisms for the second time. Since we deleted the original Ravenbloods to start them over, they've kind of just been sitting on the back burner chillin' a while along with Kieran and Tristan's cousins, Alura and Fallon. Though, we play the Ravenbloods more than we do the cousins.


(Mycin and Lord Fluffy)


(Mason and his death leprechaun, Mister Lucky)

Not for any particular reason, it just usually always happens that way. Anyway, Mycin and Mason rushed around and finally stood in front of this here guy, name escapes me, to learn the secret words to forge their prism spells. Pretty excited. Something also exciting, or more like funny:



For some reason Mycin's pet was the only thing you could see on my end, lol. It's like he isn't even in the battle, but you can sure see Lord Fluffy there!

Nothing beats a pet that's REALLY there for you!

"I've got your back Mycin, you can count on me!" -Lord Fluffy

Haha, peace all and happy playing.
