The weather outside may be frightful, but the art around Terrafrost is delightful, and our hard-working artists have more revamps to unveil today! Two of the Christmas-themed Hidden Avatars have a clean new look for you.



Check out the Holiday Cheer (formerly named Merry Christmas) and Mistletoe Hidden Avatars! The methods of obtaining these avatars have not changed.

If you're having trouble seeing the new images, try pressing Ctrl + F5 (or Fn - F5) to clear your cache.



Additionally, you may notice more space in your bags! We have increased the default available inventory space to 150 Items for everyone and 250 Items for Gold Account members.

Weather is getting colder, sleigh bells are ringing louder, and the User Requests we bring today may just reflect the holiday season!



First off, we have three new Candypillar Plushies, brought to you by @IcePrincess! You can find the Peppermint Candypillar Plushie, Spearmint Candypillar Plushie, and the Festive Candy Corn Candypillar Plushie stocking in Plushie Mania starting today!

The Plushie Quest will start requesting these in one week from today, but the Book Quest will begin rewarding them immediately.



Next, the Super Ducky appears! Funded by @Silvy, you can see this Item flying through the shelves of the Toy Shop, and the Space Quest will start requesting this in one week, as well.




What better snack on a cold day than some... ice cream? Thanks to @mochihugs, we have just the thing! You can find the Bizarre Original Ice Cream, Bizarre Minty Fresh Ice Cream, Bizarre Multi-flavoured Ice Cream, Bizarre Cookie Crumble Ice Cream, Bizarre Sugary Sweet Ice Cream, and Bizarre Chocolate Deluxe Ice Cream will now be carried by Frozen Treats for the next time you need an icy cold... snack?

Seems like you will be getting them as rewards from the Space Quest immediately (except for the Sugary Sweet Bizarre Ice Cream), and they will be requested by the Snowman Quest in one week.



And finally, a rather dark new Avatar, brought to you by @Cowpro! The mysterious Darkness Falls... Avatar certainly sounds a bit foreboding. Good luck figuring it out!

If you feel inspired to request a new Item of your own, they are always available on the User Requests page.

It's time to put pen to paper again, because there's a Poetry Contest underway! Show us your way with words, and then vote for the poem you think displays that elusive balance of artistry, creativity, and craft. You have from now until 23:59:59 (IcePets Time) on December 17 to submit one poem for the contest. The rules are as follows...

Rule 1 - You can write about anything, as long as it is appropriate for IcePets (to see what is considered appropriate, please re-read the Terms and Conditions).
Rule 2 - Your poem should be under 200 words and related to IcePets in some way.
Rule 3 - Only one entry per person.
Rule 4 - You must write your own poem, but parody of fair use poems with an IcePets spin is okay.
Rule 5 - The voting for this contest needs to remain anonymous! That means that you are not allowed to tell others what entry is yours, ask anyone to vote for you, or post your poem anywhere until the event is over.



Head on over to the Contest Page to refresh yourself on the rules and prizes. You can submit your poem directly to Quil at any time before submissions close. Once the submission period has ended, users will be able to vote for the poem they like best. The top three will be put together into an IcePets Book, and the winning users will receive...

1st Place
- Gold Contestant Trophy
- Golden Competitor Stamp
- A copy of the Book with the winning poems
- 1 Christmas Snow Jar
- 250,000 IcePoints

2nd Place

- 175,000 IcePoints

3rd Place

- 1 Christmas Snow Jar
- 100,000 IcePoints


We know you guys have creativity abound, so the competition is liable to be fierce! Remember to dot those I's and cross those T's. Good luck!

For a new IcePet species to really feel at home in Terrafrost, there's nothing better than an armful of Plushies for them to snuggle.



You can now find Lugra Plushies in all fifteen basic colours: Black, Blue, Bluegreen, Brown, Cottoncandy, Green, Grey, Ice, Orange, Pink, Purple, Red, Snowdrift, White, and Yellow.



All fifteen Plushies will now be stocking in the Plushie Store and will be requested by Samuel for the Plushie Quest. Sweet snuggling!

In the spirit of giving, every year in December Users can start sending holiday presents to each other's Holiday Tree. Simply head to the page, select the option to send a gift, and type in the username of the recipient! Under the tree, you can see how many gifts of your own are waiting for you. These gifts can't be opened until Christmas Day!

Every year, Users often work together to send wonderful gifts, so feel free to check the forums for gifting threads and User wishlists. Sending gifts and creating wishlists are entirely voluntary, so never feel obligated!



The Christmas Snow Jar will now be stocking in the Snow Jar Igloo for the duration of the month. If you don't want to wait, you can also grab them from the I.C.E Shop for 1000 IceCash (or 900 IceCash for Gold Members).

Happy gifting!

Is it December already?! The season of snow, winter bells, and generosity! The Advent Calendar is now open for the month, so make sure to check it daily for free goodies!



Don't worry if you miss a day, because you can buy a Forgotten Advent Key from the I.C.E Shop for 300 IceCash (270 IceCash for Gold Account members) to unlock a missed day.



The seasons are changing, and with them, the Token Booth stock has swapped over! Welcome the brand new Hearty Bean Soup, Bundled Lugra Bobble Head, and Terrafrost Romper, which can all be purchased with tokens.



If you missed out on any of the older Winter Token Booth Items, you can try to find one in the Winter Goodie Bag.




The votes have been tallied, and it's time to announce the winners of Member of the Month (MOTM for short)! For this month's Yet to Win MOTM, everyone congratulate...

@Milk

Thank you for making IcePets a better place! Here are our favourite things about Milk:

- I've started seeing this user more and more and they're always super friendly to everyone! They'd make a great MOTM.
- They are an awesome and nice person who I'm really glad is a member of IcePets, and I absolutely think Milk deserves an MOTM win!



Next up, we have a second Yet to Win winner this month! Please congratulate...

@Pumpkinberry

Thank you for your continuing contributions to our community! Here are our favourite things about Pumpkinberry:

- I would like to nominate Pumpkinberry for MOTM! They are kind and active, and I think definitely deserve to win!
- They're incredibly friendly and welcoming, very active... honestly, they're a joy to experience and have been part of the community that keeps me coming back for more.



Both of these fantastic members will receive 100,000 IcePoints and either the exclusive Member of the Month Avatar, or, if they already have it, the Honoured Member Trophy.







While member votes were tallying for MOTM, Staff votes tallied for SOTM, and this month's winner is...

@IcePrincess

To acknowledge their contributions to the team, we've created the following Item in their honour!


Little Helper Costume





As we move into December, new Items can be found in the I.C.E Shop for the duration of the month! Head on over to pick up the new Skeletal Krittle Figurine and Skully Nail Polish, along with the returning Coral Crossbow. Each of these is priced at 500 IceCash (or 450 IceCash for Gold Members)!

What's that noise? Is it the sound of a distant barking, or just your watch? It could be either, based on the requests we bring to you today!



First off is the adorable Scottie Plushie, requested by @LinkArctic! This wee little thing is now available in Plushie Mania and will be requested by the Plushie Quest.



Next up, we have the Which one is best? Avatar, funded by @gotchalocket. Good luck figuring out how to obtain this one!




And last up, we have a new set of watches, brought to you by @Cowpro. Look for the Dark Apple Watch and its variations, the Dark Apple Watch XL, Rose Gold Dark Apple Watch, Space Grey Dark Apple Watch, and Dark Apple Watch Mini in the Grooming Parlour. Be sure to pick these up while supplies last!*

* Supplies not actually limited.

On the long journey back to the Terrafrost mainlands, the new Lugra passengers found themselves inspired by their swashbuckling crewmates and decided to dress to the occasion.





The Pirate Lugra has joined the roster! You can get your paws on the Pirate Lugra Morphing Potion over at the Token Booth like the others. Or if you are extra eager, the Morphing Potion is in the I.C.E Shop until the end of December for 500 IceCash (450 IceCash for Gold Account members)!



In other news, IcePets is hiring! We are currently seeking two editors and one moderator to join our team! If you are interested in applying, please visit our Support Site for information.
