Good Evening, CE players!

We have a brief but fun news update for everyone to kick off December + the Winter season! Today's update will cover recent releases, development updates, revisions to our monthly/seasonal item + gene releases, and more. Keep reading to stay in the loop!

December + Winter Rotation
As you have noticed, fall and November items have cycled out of the Cash Shop/Celestial Markets and has been replaced by an icy wonderland! Whether you are looking for a festive look or a soft icy look, the shops are sure to fulfill your needs.

We will continue to release small batches of genes and wearables to the Cash Shop and Markets throughout the month, so be sure to check back regularly!

Development Updates
We have officially launched our Celestial Item Book! The item book lists every item available on Celestial Equine by category and includes everything you need to know about a specific item. From the stock cycle to the number in circulation, this area is your one stop shop for all item related information!

We are still hard at work finishing our Gene Book, which will give players the ability to view every gene available within CE, try genes on in a sophisticated gene previewing area, and also give insight to a gene¢¢¬¢¢s rarity based on how many horses have the gene. This should help players understand the value of their horses and give guidance to pricing horses based on gene rarity. In addition to the book itsself, this area will tie into your horse's genetic table for easy access to information about your horse's genes! This is slated to release within December. Thank you all for your patience as we know this is a highly anticipated area.

Remaining 2020 Plans
2020 has been a wild yet highly productive year for Celestial Equine! While we missed the mark by a bit regarding our development projections, we are still so proud of how far CE has come from the start of the year. The remainder of 2020 will be spent perfecting our feature plans for Q1 releases, cleaning up remaining bugs, and continuing to improve the UI of CE based on user feedback. Please remember to utilize the suggestion area of the forums as this is the primary area we pull feature tweaks from!

We are continuing to evolve into such a fun community and it is even more exciting to map out the beginning of 2021! With that being said, here is a small snapshot of what we would like to accomplish during Q1 (January - March) of 2021.

- Elder Quest Revisions
    - The Elder Quests will receive official NPC characters with an interactive area for completing quests. Quests will receive an official story line which ties into the Celestial Lore
- Alliances
    - Our highly anticipated Alliances will provide additional activities to complete with your favorite horses. More information to come! No spoilers here ;)
- General Gameplay Enhancements
    - As always, we will continue to acknowledge highly requested tweaks/additions to currently live features. This also includes attention to bugs!

Revisions to Monthly Market Releases
After four months of testing our new themed release methods, we are pleased to announce our newest release concept which will begin January 2021! While we have enjoyed releasing gene recolors and new accessories for your beautiful horses, we feel that this burst of genes takes away from the excitement of creating and refining horses stemming from CE Original breeds.

Moving forward, we will spotlight one CE original breed each month and provide a new "gene expansion" for the selected breed. This will include new genes and color varieties. The Magic Shop releases will include recolors of the new genes along with a handful of recolors similar to our current method of releasing. This will result in less being released at a time, but higher quality genes to choose from! This concept will also apply to the wearable releases.

I hope you all are excited for January and the idea of brand-new genes to play with!


To wrap up this news post, we have officially reopened Breed and gene orders! Please take a look at our updated order guidelines here.

Thank you for reading!

December is here and that can mean only one thing - Aurestal is almost here! Today Aurestal is celebrated as a wonderful time of year when good-will and hospitality grips the world of Terrafrost. However, this isn't how December used to be thought of by Terrafrostians -- especially those in villages covered in snow and rough terrain this time of year. The harsh weather was dark, cold, and a bitter place to be, making it a lonely, desperate time. Legend goes that the accumulation of these emotions welled up as more IcePets were born and communities grew, until there was enough to reverberate up the tallest peaks of Snowslide and wake the Aurora.



Encased in ice on that highest peak was a family of three magical creatures, said to have formed from the very first ice crystals on Terrafrost. These three partners slept peacefully among the ice for aeons, until the sadness from below finally cracked through and reached them. Generosity woke first, a blaze of green, heart going out to the many IcePets in need. Prosperity woke second, red, sensing the frail young and old. The white light of Peace woke last, longing to comfort the distress below.



Everywhere the Aurora went, the three partners spread their warmth and joy. So much good-will and hospitality was fostered, that it became tradition for all IcePets to give gifts, share food and shelter. In celebration of the season, they hung artificial lights on trees and bushes, so the brightness and happiness could be enjoyed the whole month. Gradually, the month-long festivities of Aurestal took form. Green symbolised generosity, red for prosperity, and white represented peace. As IcePet populations grew around the globe, the Aurora found it difficult to reach everyone in time; they needed help. They used their magic to bring more ice crystals to life -- though it had been aeons since their own creation, they were able to muster enough power to give life to thousands of tiny snowsprites. The snowsprites were small, but they had enough magic to carry the gifts of peace, prosperity, and generosity. The Aurora would carry the sprites with them, flying overhead in a streak of light, and let them float down with the snow. Thus a snowy Aurestal became a sign of good luck, and to this day young IcePets get excited about the snowsprites floating down with presents.

Christmas will now be referred to as Aurestal. The lore of Aurestal will change previous Christmas stories, which will be announced as adjustments are made.





With the arrival of December and Aurestal nearing closer, it is time for festivities to begin! The Advent Calendar is available for the month. Be sure to check every day! If you do miss a day however the Forgotten Advent Key is available in the I.C.E Shop for 300 IceCash (270 IceCash for Gold Account members). New this year, you can use The Forgotten Advent Key to unlock any days missed from previous calendars. Simply click the link to the year you wish to visit above the current advent calendar to see a past calendar.

Welcome to the Festival of Pilair Everybody!

I am Mel-T the Snowman, and it is my pleasure to host this special holiday once again. Hale, Queen of Pilair will randomly visit one online user every 15 minutes. Receive a snowball from Hale and bring it back to me in Pilair! Those snowballs are important to me they help me grow, and as an added bonus make great materials to craft special items for the Festival of Pilair! And what better way to thank you for contributing to the Festival by giving you an exclusive item?

That's right! For every Snowball you bring me, I'll give you one very special item!

It's here, it's here! I can be that Crazy Christmas lady now right? Y'all won't judge me anymore?! Before we dive in, this is a reminder that if you posted a review on any of the voting sites during November, make sure you PM me with a screenshot of the review, I will give you 48 hours to get a PM to me. Not all of the sites are friendly for getting the information on who reviewed and seeing every review posted, so this is the last call for that. All November things will be worked on catching up / prizes out over the next week or two. Hang tight as a lot happened and I'm still playing "get everything sorted". Now, lets head to the FoF and December stuff! To start with, as a lot of you have came to realize, the Gifting Tree is out. For those unsure about any of our Christmas events, please check out the Reference Section of our Library as it goes into detail about each event. Additionally, Festival of Frost is now in full swing! As promised last year, all

Update All Social Media Minigames have been caught up, prizes should have been sent out, and the Spreadsheet is up to date on that. On site THANKSGIVING games have been thrown to the staff to judge. That will take a few days to hear back from, after I tally winners I will send participation prizes AND placement prizes. I will hold off on any judging dealing with the reviews and promo month until the 48 hours passes for people who submitted reviews to send me a PM with their screenshot (see last news post). I will do my best to grab any names I can from these sites, but some of them have to be "approved" by the review site's staff and I cannot access those, so if you submitted there and don't PM me, I might miss you. Also, A FoF Chat thread was requested, so here it is. Reminders I wanted to remind everyone of our goals for Social Media and Youtube. This only helps you users too, as once we reach a milestone on any one of the Social Platforms, we
