SUMMER CAMP 2026 QUICK LINKS
welcome campers!
Our annual festivities took a turn this year when the Merfauns arrived. Seeing so many Faunids in one place– appreciating and learning about the world around them– encouraged Merfauns to come out of deeper waters to ask for help.
The meteor’s crash early this year has impacted ecosystems all across Atalav, especially the waters. Shifting tides, flash floods, unearthed water flows along rocky cliffs, changes in the behavior of wildlife, and even more forces unknown… All of that chaos has left Merfauns and other species alike displaced from the places they once called home.
Come help by participating in our challenges to win some Pebbles to spend in the shop!


Amnesiac: Hi, camper! I’d tell you my name, but… I don’t have one just yet. When I first woke up a few months ago, I knew nothing about this world or where I came from. I remember opening my eyes in a field of flowers, and what a beautiful day it was.
Everywhere I go, Faunids welcome me as one of their own. I may not know where I come from, still, but I now know where I belong: here, among Faunids and their friends. When I asked if I could help with the annual Summer Camp, I had no idea what was in store for us… What a strange sight it was, watching those strange Faunids coming out from the water to meet us all! Though some of the other campers say they’re a little odd, I feel a sense of kinship with them. I’m a little odd myself.
Eekel: Eekel doesn’t know why he was picked to talk to the campers. Maybe it’s that Eekel’s friends are shy, but Eekel isn’t! Eekel trades with the land Faunids all the time. Eekel’s friends say he’s ‘Carries-matic’, but Eekel doesn’t know what that means and hopes it’s a nice thing to say.
HOW SUMMER CAMP WORKS
You do not need to own the Faunid you use, but you must have permission from the owner.
All creatives made during this event must be made by the submitter. Collaborations are allowed but only count toward a single user, not all collaborators.
Pebbles (Event exclusive currency) cannot be sent to other users.
Items gained through Pebbles or activities can be traded to other users.
Summer Camp lasts one whole month. In that month, you will be able to enter prompts/activities with a Faunid and interact with dailies. Once a prompt is open, it stays open for the rest of the event. With each prompt submission, you will receive Pebbles, a currency exclusive to this event that can be spent in the Summer Camp shop.
We will also have raffle adoptables for this month that you can enter for by participating in all the prompts! They will be revealed at the mid-month mark. This year, we have some guest artists making adopts, too!
--
All of the items that can be bought are visible in the Summer Camp shop.
Exclusive Trait and Mutation Applicators have had their prices increased by 10 Pebbles, but do not have limited stock across the whole community. A maximum of one per year can be bought by each user.

FAQ
"Do I have to use the same faun for each entry?"
No you don't have to, but it is highly encouraged.
"Can I submit multiple entries?"
You can create multiple entries per prompt but only one prompt entry will count towards currency collection.
"Does currency rollover?"
If you do not spend all of your currency in the month, it will roll over to the next year!
"When can I spend my pebbles?"
You can spend your pebbles at any point in the event!
"Can I do my entries traditionally?"
Yes you can! Some prompts require specific lines and backgrounds, so you will need to find a way to incorporate these requirements in your traditional entry.
