Hello all! We are about to start scouting for new Pravda for the first time in 5 years! Some things to know:


The Pravda are a very tight knit group of drama free people who are very good at digging through copious amounts of information, asking questions, and then applying that to correct play of these very complex creatures. While I am more than happy to be your guide, please understand that there are rules and laws to the Pravda, and any failure to maintain these will cause problems for our species. As such, we have some rules for new potential players:


You are ineligible for a Pravda if:


- You have been removed/banned from another original species.

- You have any of my Pravda players blocked.


Also understand that your entrance *will* be voted on by the species as a means of making sure that you will be a good fit. As long as you've not caused any odd drama, this should be easy.


If all of this goes well and you're still interested, we can move onto the next step! From here, you can choose and buy a Pravda. Untapped Pravda abilities and core traits/magic already exist, making it easy to find a Pravda that works just right for you.


*You should not apply for a Pravda if you are unable or unwilling to unpack a GARGANTUAN amount of lore. It is a playground with tons of room to move, but no one will be accepted who is unwilling to learn to play the character properly.*


New Pravda will cost $150-$200 depending on the work put into them. THESE WILL BE STARTED AS UNASCENDED PRAVDA. (Classic Pravda). Ascension will be gained for new players via activity and RP, just like the rest of our players. Currently, we have 4 Ascended Pravda, with another 4 in trials, another 4 about to enter trials, and the rest preparing for them. This will act as an orientation for new players, teaching them everything they need to know to begin in RP.


Untapped Pravda will be listed below!

ANTICIPATION

Magic: Constantly aware of the Immediate future.

EMPATHY

DREAMS (NOT AVAILABLE)

Magic: Can impart dreams on others, as well as view and enter the dreams of others.

GENEROSITY

Magic: Can multiply anything they touch indefinitely.

HUMOR

Magic: Controls the endorphins of other creatures/people.

LOYALTY

Magic: Uses the loyalty of others to further the Pravda mission. Inspires the loyalty of Kings and Queens on other races and can enforce treaties between Pravda.

Hello, Friends! ​ Naik has finally cleared out her queue, and now a new sale is upon us! We're going to keep it simple for right now and kick things off with a sketch sale! ​ During this sale, only ONE item will be paid for and worked on at a time, so that Naik's queue remains spotless. This sale will run May 26th through June 2nd! We'll be running a waitlist via clickup to expedite the process for interested parties. As per our new Studio Procedures, 5% of each commission's price will be going directly into the Phoenix Spire Studio fund to pay for fees and other Studio expenses. ​ Prices for this sale will be run on an hourly basis set at $20/hr. Since Naik's work builds over hours, we have examples below of how long different hours impact pieces. Please be advised, pieces will have artistic freedom, and may or may not be full body. In any case, they will have the work put in. What Naik can do with various characters in different time scales depends entirely on complexity. (As usual, Naik is an anthro only artist! No humans, and no smut!) ​ If you're interested in grabbing a commission, contact Naik via discord at Naikios #0428, email to naikios@phoenixspirestudio.com, or contact any of the Phoenix Spire Team members!


(To look at examples, please head over to https://www.phoenixspirestudio.com/sketchsale , Be advised, this is a separate page as our traditional pages are currently disabled. This is the ONLY way to reach it!)

Hey there, friends!


Just wanted to reach out to say a HUGE thank you for everyone's patience. I really appreciate everyone giving me the space I needed to readjust and get my queue cleared out, and it made a world of difference.


So now a little bit about the future:


First, Phoenix Spire's pages have been temporarily deactivated in preparation for an official Grand Opening in a couple months. To read more about this, just head over to the Phoenix Spire main page. It will give you all the information you could want about the direction Phoenix Spire will be moving in the future and what's to come. https://www.phoenixspirestudio.com .


Secondly, in reference to commissions: I've finally gotten myself to a point where I can count what's left in my queue on one hand for the first time in about 10 years. I'll be spending the rest of the week finishing this up, then will be readjusting my prices, and opening up a 1 x 1 commission style until we get our sites up and running. This will mean that when I'm ready, We'll be allowing one a time, to whatever effect that has, right up until the Phoenix Spire and Zevarian site have their Grand Opening. At that point, we'll decide whether what we like best for my workload.


To all of my players: You are the best, and I'm sorry life has taken me out of the game for a few years. Worry not, I have returned, and I bring with me 7 metric tons of new storyline and lore for you. Just bear with us for another month or two. We promise it'll be worth it, as we're designing everything currently with you all in mind. <3 <3 Thank you so much for your continued support over the years, I couldn't do anything without you.


Oh yes, and one last thing: Thank you to all of the new people giving my favorites on deviations! I won't bother you with a billion thank you's, but know that they've been seen and are appreciated! ^^

I'm still working on some other items for the team and species websites we're about to unleash, but the last of my typical queue is finishing up this week, which means the time has come for a light trial run on my new commission system! For information on this and the abridged trial price sheet, head on over to: https://www.phoenixspirestudio.com/commissionsales . Please make sure you understand the system before ordering from it! It has been entirely reformatted to avoid me ever getting stuck in the same stagnant hellscape that burned me out the last time! ^^
