Winter Plot-Line Continues[]
SabreCat's news is dire. "Most of my sabertooth friends have been impossible to reach, but one thing is clear: the prides have been disappearing from the Steppes. There are also reports that something drove the mammoths to early migration and disturbed the hibernation of the terrible lizards."
He wraps his cloak around himself as another blast of frigid wind roars through the streets. An icy winter gale has been blowing from the north, rattling the window panes and setting the pets and mounts to trembling and howling.
"I've never seen anything like it!" says Matt the Beast Master. "Something is terrifying all my animals - even the cacti, who are normally so mighty and brave! For something to frighten a cactus..." He shakes his head.
The stress level in Habitica is mounting.

Winter Wonderland Begins![]
Winter has arrived, and the snow is gently drifting down over Habit City. Come celebrate with us!
Winter Class Outfits[]
From now until January 31st, limited edition outfits are available in the Rewards column. Depending on your class, you can be a Soothing Skater, Mage of the North, Gingerbread Warrior, or Icicle Drake! You'd better get productive to earn enough gold before they disappear. Good luck!
by Lemoness
Wintery Hair Colors[]
The Seasonal Edition Wintery Hair Colors are now available for purchase in the avatar customizations page! Now you can dye your avatar's hair Holly Green, Winter Star, Snowy, Peppermint, Aurora, or Festive.Seasonal Edition items recur unchanged every year, but they are only available to purchase during a short period of time. This is different from Limited Edition Items, which only recur if something is changed, such as the art or the price. These hair colors may remind some of you of the Holiday Hair Colors that were available last winter. The Holiday Hair Colors have been Retired in favor of the similar Seasonal Edition Wintery Hair Colors. Read more about the difference between Seasonal and Limited Edition items here!

Winter Plot-Line Continues[]
Lemoness bursts into the Tavern, shaking icicles off her hat. "The Stoïkalm Steppes are completely abandoned!" she says, gulping the cup of tea that Daniel the Barkeep offers her. "No people milling about, no mounts and pets playing in the snow - and when I tried to fly closer, my dragon spooked and refused to land!"
A cloaked figure in the corner steps into the fire light - SabreCat, a powerful adventurer from the north. "The Stoïkalm Steppes are the last home of many animals that have long since gone extinct elsewhere," he says. "The stoic Stoïkalmers would never flee their lands unless something was threatening their pets and mounts!"
He turns to Lemoness. "I can speak the language of the northern beasts. I'll try to contact the roaming sabertooth prides to see if they know what happened." As he lopes off into the distance, a cold wind begins to blow.

Penguin Pet Quest[]
by Melynnrose, Breadstrings, Rattify, Painter de Cluster, Daniel the Bard, and Leephon
Winter Plot-Line[]
Lemoness enters the Tavern with worrying news from the far north of Habitica. "Nobody's heard from the Stoïkalm Steppes for over a week," she says. "It's hard to imagine anything troubling the citizens there, since it's such a placid part of the continent... But just in case, maybe I should pay a visit." Sounds like a good plan to us!

Gifting Subscriptions And gems[]
You can now gift subscriptions and gems to other people (bottom-left in a user's profile window)!

by Lefnire

Site Outage Explanation[]
Many of you may have noticed that you could not access HabitRPG for a large portion of December 1st. This wasn't a problem on our end - it was due to an outage by DNSimple, the service that provides us with our domain. We're very sorry about any frustration that this caused! If you lost any stats, you can restore them using Settings > Site > Fix Character Values. For future reference, if you ever have trouble accessing HabitRPG, be sure to follow our official Twitter, @HabitRPG, for updates! Thank you for all of your supportive messages <3

Last Day For Fall Festival Items[]
Tomorrow everything will be back to normal in Habitica, so if you still have any remaining Fall Festival Items that you want to buy, you'd better do it now!

Community Guidelines[]
Our community has grown and evolved over this past year and a half, and we realized that none of the community expectations had been codified anywhere. This has now changed with the implementation of the Community Guidelines. The Guidelines have been written by the staff and mods and illustrated by many of our talented artisans. We know they're long, but they contain all the expectations for participating in the public social side of HabitRPG, so please do read them carefully! Soon you'll have to agree to them to participate in any of the Public Chat.

Increased gems For Contributors[]
When we first started rewarding contributors, we decided to give them 2 gems per contributor tier. Since then, however, we've introduced many more things to buy, so we've decided to increase this number. All contributors now receive 3 gems/tier for tiers 1-3, and then 4 gems/tier for tiers 4-7, bringing the total number of gems you can earn by contributing to the site to 25.
If you've already contributed, you've been given the gems that you're owed according to the new system. (For example, if you are a tier 3 contributor, you received 6 gems in the past and would receive 9 gems under the new system, so you've been awarded 3 gems to account for the difference.)
Enjoy!

Level 60 Equipment Quest: Recidivate Quest Line![]
All over Habitica, Bad Habits thought long-dead are rising up again - it must be the work of Recidivate, the wicked Necromancer! Can you complete your Dailies and fight down your Bad Habits to lay her to rest once more? If so, you'll reap some fine spoils... including some legendary armor!
This quest line contains the hardest Boss Battle that we've released to date, so the first quest scroll drops for free at Level 60. If you're already Level 60 or over, you can unlock it for free, too - just check off any task and it will drop for you :) Good luck! You'll need it.

Memory Leaks Almost Fixed[]
It took a ton of effort, but Tyler has fixed the largest memory leak that was crashing our servers! There are a few smaller ones that he’s still conquering one by one, but the fiercest monster has been slain. Ten thousand cheers for Tyler! You can read the technical description of how we’re fixing the leaks here, and for any JavaScript developers out there: we'd love your help! We’ll let you all know when we’ve fixed the problem for once and for all.

Seasonal Edition Hair[]
The Seasonal Edition Haunted Hair Colors are now available for purchase in the avatar customizations page! Now you can dye your avatar's hair Pumpkin, Midnight, Candy Corn, Ghost White, Zombie, or Halloween.
Seasonal Edition items recur unchanged every year, but they are only available to purchase during a short period of time. This is different from Limited Edition Items, which only recur if something is changed, such as the art or the price. Read more about the difference between Seasonal and Limited Edition items here!
Seasonal Edition Skins[]
The Supernatural Skin Set is here! Now your avatar can become an Ogre, Skeleton, Pumpkin, Candy Corn, Reptile, or Dread Shade. You can buy them from now until October 31st! These skins may remind some of you of the Spooky Skin set that was available briefly last fall. This is because we've received many requests for these Limited Edition skins from more recent players who were unable to purchase those skins. As a compromise, we have decided to Retire the Spooky Skin Set and release some similar but unique skins as part of the Supernatural Skin Set. That way, anyone who wants their avatar to be a pumpkin can have their way, but the original owners of the skin sets still have the unique items that they were promised. You can read more about the new Item Availability categories here.
Community Costume Challenge[]
The Community Costume Challenge has begun! Between now and October 31st, dress up as your avatar in real life and post a photo on social media to get the coveted Costume Challenge badge! Read the full rules on the Challenge page here.
Release Pets and Mounts[]
If you find collecting pets highly motivating and want to start over from zero, you're in luck! You can now release all your pets and mounts so that you can collect them again - and stack your Beastmaster achievement!
October Mystery Item[]
Spooky! What could it be? All Habiticans who are subscribed during the month of October will receive the October Mystery Item Set! It will be revealed on the 25th, so keep your eyes peeled. Thanks for supporting the site <3

We've also written a blog post . We'll keep you updated with new developments as we strive to solve this problem. If you've lost any of your stats during this time, you can restore them using Settings > Site > Fix Character Values.

Candy Food Drops![]
You've received some Candy in your inventory in honor of the Fall Festival! Plus, for the duration of the Event, Habiticans may randomly find candy drops when they complete their tasks. These candies function just like normal food drops - can you guess which flavor your pet will like best?

We've got an exciting event coming up this October - the first-ever Community Costume Challenge! In the spirit of the season, Habiticans who dress up in real-life versions of their avatar's armor (or in any HabitRPG costume) will receive a special badge. (No, just wearing a colored shirt doesn't count. Where's the fun in that?) The Community Costume Challenge will start on October 1st, but we're announcing it early so that people have time to get their costumes together. Instructions on how to participate in the CCC will be posted on October 1st. We can't wait to see your costumes!

We've updated the mobile app to include Backgrounds and Guilds! Now you can use the mobile app to join common interest groups, chat with like-minded people, and swap your avatar’s background. The iOS app is here, and the Android app is here. If you enjoy the direction that we’ve been taking the app, we would really appreciate it if you would leave us a review <3 Thank you!

New Equipment Quest: Attack Of The Mundane![]
There's a new Quest that will drop automatically for all users level 15 and up: the Dish Disaster, first quest in the Attack of the Mundane Questline! Scrub enchanted dirty dishes, battle the SnackLess Monster, and face off against the Evil Laundromancer. You might just be rewarded with a new piece of armor... As you complete each quest in this questline, you will be awarded with the quest scroll for the next part. There are three parts in total. Good luck!

New Backgrounds Revealed: Volcano, Dusty Canyon, Clouds[]
There are three new avatar backgrounds in the Background Shop! Now your avatar can heat up inside a Volcano, wander through a Dusty Canyon, or soar through the Clouds!
New Mobile Update: Checklist Editing And Bug Fixes![]
In case you missed it, we’ve released a new mobile update! You can edit checklists from the mobile app now. We also fixed some bugs, including the image problems on iOS! The Android app is here and the iOS app is here.
You may have noticed that we've been releasing lots of updates recently. This is greatly due to two awesome members of our team!
The first is superstar contributor Matteo, aka paglias. In addition to the mobile app, he contributes tons of code to the site, runs translations, and fixes bugs without blinking. We are so thankful to have him on the team!
We also have another new mobile app contributor who has rocketed to Level 7 in record time: huarui! Huarui has been an absolute whirlwind with mobile app improvements. Give them both a giant round of applause!

Dread Drag'on Defeated! Prizes: Mantis Shrimp Pet, Mantis Shrimp Mount, Food, and Badge[]
We've done it!
With a final last roar, the Dread Drag'on collapses and swims far, far away. Crowds of cheering Habiticans line the shores! We've helped Daniel rebuild his Tavern.
But what's this?
THE CITIZENS RETURN!
Now that the Drag'on has fled, thousands of sparkling colors are ascending through the sea. It is a rainbow swarm of Mantis Shrimp... and among them, hundreds of merpeople!
"We are the lost citizens of Dilatory!" explains their leader, Manta. "When Dilatory sank, the Mantis Shrimp that lived in these waters used a spell to transform us into merpeople so that we could survive. But in its rage, the Dread Drag'on trapped us all in the dark crevasse. We have been imprisoned there for hundreds of years - but now at last we are free to rebuild our city!"
"As a thank you," says his friend @Ottl, "Please accept this Mantis Shrimp pet and Mantis Shrimp mount, this feast, and our eternal gratitude!"
August Mystery Item[]
Ooh, mysterious! All Habiticans who are subscribed during the month of August will receive the August Mystery Item Set! It will be revealed on the 26th, so keep your eyes peeled. Thanks for supporting the site <3

We’ve released another update to the mobile app! Now you can feed and select pets from the app. Carry your cute pets with you everywhere you go! The app is available for iOS here, and Android here. We’re continuing to release updates on a regular basis, so if you like the direction that we’ve been taking the app, please do consider leaving us a review. Thank you!
Neglect Strike: Tavern Art Swap[]
The Dread Drag'on's Rage Bar has filled, and it has unleashed its Neglect Strike, leading to a new look for the Tavern! As a reminder, the Drag'on's rage will NEVER hurt any users or interfere with their ability to be productive, so the chat and inn are still functional. Even so... poor Daniel!
All users are automatically damaging the Drag'on with their tasks. There is nothing bad that can happen to you or your account by being in this fight!
Dread Drag'on Prize Change: Food Reward![]
We've received a lot of feedback due to the weekend's confusion, and it seems that awarding GP and XP for defeating the world boss significantly unbalanced the game for newer players. Based on your feedback, XP and GP will no longer be awarded. Instead, players will receive an assortment of food! The Mantis Shrimps will still be awarded.
If you were looking forward to receiving the 900XP and 90 GP upon completion of the battle, feel free to award it to yourself using Settings > Site > Fix Character Values when the battle is done!
Thank you for bearing with us through the confusion. We love you guys.
12.07.2014[]
Wow, What's Going On?![]
You may have noticed some strange things happening - extra gold? Drag'on defeated? No quest damage?
Turns out the Dread Drag'on of Dilatory was harder to handle than we expected, and wreaked havoc on us last night by unexpectedly completing due to a glitch, throwing off party quest damage, and granting all of its rewards early! *shakes fist at terrible beast*
The Drag’on is now back in the battle (read about how to fight it here), and the Mantis Shrimp pet/mount were removed until it is defeated for good. We are so sorry about the confusion!
If you don’t want the 900 XP and 90 Gold, you can delete it using Settings > Site >Fix Character Values. You can also keep it as an apology from the devs for all the confusion! Do whatever is most motivating for you :) It will be granted again when the Drag'on is truly vanquished.
The Drag’on also caused some glitches with party boss damage, but they should be repaired now.
For a detailed breakdown of what happened, follow the issue here!
Now let's fight this monster for real.

July 11th: GaymerX reminder[]
Reminder: Vicky (aka redphoenix) is at GaymerX at the InterContinental in San Francisco this weekend! She will have lots of promo codes for the Unconventional Armor Set. Our champion moderator Ryan will be there, too, and would love to meet you guys! Vicky will be wearing a dinosaur hoodie and a red shirt, and Ryan has a partially-shaved head and is in a wheelchair.

Happy Derby Day![]
In celebration of Derby Day, all Habiticans have received a seahorse egg! On this day, the worst of Habitica's ancient bugs were defeated, and so every year we celebrate. Let's ride through Dilatory on this fun day.
New Pet Quest: Seahorse![]
But oh, no - it looks like a wild Sea Stallion is disrupting the races! Quickly, battle the Sea Stallion to calm him down, and you might just get your hands on some additional seahorse eggs...
- by Kiwibot and Lemoness
Updated Stats Bars[]
Based on your feedback, we’ve updated the design of the new status bars with an 8-bit style and improved accessibility.

МИРОВОЙ БОСС: Ужасный Дракон Промедления![]
Мы были слепы к предзнаменованиям.
Иссиня-черные сверкающие глаза. Древняя чешуя. Массивные челюсти и острые зубы. Мы пробудили что-то ужасающее, что никогда не должно было покидать своей расщелины: Ужасный Дракон Промедления! Кричащие жители Habitica рассыпаются во всех направлениях, когда его извивающаяся шея длиной в десятки метров рассекает водную гладью, а дикий рёв заставляет дрожать окна близлежащих домов.
«Мы должны положить конец Промедлению!», — кричит Lemoness. «Именно откладываемые задачи и красные ежедневные задания привлекли его внимание! «Он излучает магическую энергию!» — кричит @Baconsaur. «Живя так долго, он научился исцелять себя! Как мы сможем побороть его?»
Очень просто: так же, как и всех Боссов – продуктивностью! Быстрее, Habitica, объединяйся и сражай свои задачи, вместе мы победим этого монстра. (Нет нужды бросать начатые квесты, мы уверены в ваших возможностях сражаться на двух фронтах). Он не нападет на мирных жителей, но чем больше ежедневных заданий мы пропускаем, тем больше сил он получает для Незамедлительной Атаки! И мне не нравится, как он поглядывает на Таверну...

Last day for June Item Set![]
Reminder: this is the final day to subscribe and receive the Octomage Item Set! If you want the Octopus Robe or the Tentacle Helm, now's the time! Thanks so much for your support <3
Новости о Промедлении[]
ПОЖАЛУЙСТА! Жители Habitica, прекратите исследовать темную расщелину!!! Lemoness действительно волнуется. Там присутствуют .... знаки.
Знаки чего-то большого.
Знаки чего-то ужасающего.
Знаки об усиливающихся таинственных подземных толчках.
Кроме того, исследование темной и опасной расщелины стало источником промедления. Давайте вернемся к работе!
25.06.2014[]

Mobile App Update[]
There's a new mobile app update available! In addition to bug fixes, there are many improvements, including a new button-based menu, tap-and-hold to edit tasks, and the return of stats and in-app avatar customization! Working on the mobile app is our biggest To-Do this summer, so expect more in the coming months. If you feel that the app is improving, we'd love it if you would take the time to give us a review and let us know what you think!
Новости о Промедлении[]
Приятно видеть, как жители Habitica весело проводят время, исследуя руины! Есть только одна маленькая вещь, которую Lemoness хотела бы, чтобы мы избегали. Она заметила, что многие жители Habitica пытаются осмотреть разрушенный дворец на другой стороне темной расщелины. Она не знает, безопасна ли эта трещина, поэтому, пожалуйста, не плавайте возле нее. Приятных вам исследований!
21.06.2014[]
Summer Mystery Update[]
Lady Lemoness has returned at last! She startled beach-goers by charging up out of the waves and onto the shore, shouting "I found it!!! I found it!!! Oh, I just KNEW that citing it as impossible would make it a narrative probability!"
Wait - found what?
Событие Летнего всплеска: потерянный город Промедления![]
Промедление был прекрасным островным городом древней Habitica. Это место процветало, но по мере того, как богатство города росло, жители становились ленивыми и не спешили выполнять свои ежедневные дела ... пока совокупный вес их темно-красных заданий не вызвал мощное землетрясение, которое потопило город. Легенды говорят, что все жители были превращены в морских существ.
Местоположение этого города было неизвестно ... до сих пор!
Limited Edition Outfits![]
What's the fun of an underwater city if you can't explore it? Luckily, from now until July 31st, special Limited Edition Outfits are available for gold in the Rewards store! Spellcasters can transform themselves into Emerald Mermages and Reef Seahealers to swim among the ruins, while fighters may prefer to dress as Roguish Pirates and Daring Swashbucklers, riding above the city on magnificent ships. Work hard, and you can join them!
NPC Dress-up[]
The NPCs got so excited about the discovery of Dilatory that they've moved over there for the summer! Daniel the Innkeeper has opened a beachside tavern, and Alex is also selling by the shore! Meanwhile, Justin the Guide is giving tours aboard boats, Ian is dispensing quest wisdom from the deep ocean, Matt has opened stables for aquatic pets, and I am swimming about keeping everyone informed!
Но что вызвало землетрясение?[]
Только одна тайна остается неразгаданной - что вызвало второе землетрясение, из-за которого древние ежедневные задания были выброшены на берег? В конце концов, землетрясение, которое разрушило Промедление, было вызвано невыполненными ежедневными делами и задачами, не так ли?
Но мы выполняем все наши задания...
14.06.2014[]
New Feature: Backgrounds![]
We're debuting a brand-new feature - backgrounds for your avatar! Stroll through a Summer Forest, lounge upon a warm Beach, or dance in a Fairy Ring. You can buy the backgrounds in the new Background tab, under User. Have fun!
Новости о летней мистической истории[]
Прошло много времени, когда мы видели Lemoness в последний раз - она редко показывалась с тех пор, как начала расшифровывать эти древние ежедневные задания. Мы только что остановились возле ее дома, чтобы проверить ее и поняли, что она ... пропала?
Похоже, она взяла с собой свой волшебный вязальный крючок. На столе лежала записка: «Я думаю, что перевела их! Если я права, то это будет довольно ИНТЕРЕСНОЕ лето. Проверяю свои догадки - скоро вернусь!!!»
Единственной вещью на столе была древняя карта ... с оторванным углом.

New Pet Quest: The Call Of Octothulu![]
There's a new pet in town! The dreaded Octothulu, sticky spawn of the stars, has emerged from a whirlpool in a dark cave by the sea. It's up to you and your party to banish the foul beast by being extra-productive! If you manage to defeat it, you might just find some octopus eggs...
Новости о землетрясении[]
Помните то странное землетрясение, которое у нас недавно произошло? Это, вероятно, никак не связано, но жители Habitica недавно заметили загадочные темные ежедневные задания, разбросанные на пляже. Lemoness с радостью сообщает, что они написаны на древнем языке, и что она усердно работает над их расшифровкой. Мы будем держать вас в курсе событий!
05.06.2014[]
June Mystery Item[]
Wow, what could it be? All Habiticans who are subscribed during the month of June will receive the June Mystery Item Set! It will be revealed on the 25th, so keep your eyes peeled. Thanks for supporting the site <3
Что это было?[]
Ой! Загадочное землетрясение произошло в Habitica! К счастью, никто не пострадал и оно не принесло никакого ущерба, однако наши ученые сбиты с толку. «Мы даже не в сейсмической зоне», - пробормотала леди Lemoness, изучая огромную книгу. «Землетрясений не было с тех пор ... но нет, это невозможно». Ну, если Lemoness так говорит, это должно быть правдой! Похоже, это была просто ложная тревога.

Note: to edit a task or view checklists, swipe left on the task. We're working on click-to-view, we'd love some developer help!

The HabitRPG Chrome Extension[]
Great news - we've fixed our Chrome Extension! Many thanks to new contributor @GoldBattle. Now you can set the times and dates you want to only browse productive sites.

Also, a quick change - May's Mystery Item will now be revealed on the 23rd, instead of the 25th. Rejoice, impatient Habiticans!

Mobile Update[]
Great news! We've just released a big upgrade to our mobile app. One of our biggest priorities right now is improving the HabitRPG mobile experience, so this is an important first step. We've upgraded the framework to Ionic, which means a cleaner look and smoother feel, and best of all, it is now easier for the developers to add new updates and features! Read more about the upgrade here.
The Android App is available here! The iOS app was submitted to the App Store, but Apple always takes a while to process things, so it may be a few more days. Let's hope they're quick this time around! We'll let you know when it goes through.
Have a productive day!
Spread the Word Challenge[]

Hiya, folks! I'm Mrs. Carrot the Carroty Carrot, and I am your new announcer here at HabitRPG! I'm pleased to say that we've released several important updates that we are convinced will drastically improve user experience. Be sure to click around to admire our completely warranted and not at all arbitrary changes! In short, we were worried that the fantasy role-playing-game theme was getting somewhat overplayed, so we've decided unanimously to take the app in a different, more nutritious direction.
After all, talking vegetables NEVER get old.

Make sure to collect yours first, though!
What are you waiting for? Go be productive and earn some gold!
New Un-Equip Mechanic[]
Now to un-equip your gear, click the same item that you have currently equipped. We removed the "Base Equipment" tier for consistency with how un-equipping pets & mounts is handled, and to easily support adding new gear types.
Pet Quest: The Ghost Stag[]
The meadows of Habitica are bursting with flowers, sunshine, and.... ominous mist? Looks like a ghost stag is keeping winter alive! Defeat him, and maybe you'll get an egg or three....
And More To Come...[]
This is only the beginning of all the treats that we've got in store for you. Stay tuned - and happy Spring Fling!
18.03.2014[]
New Pet Quest Mechanics[]
Great news - now it is easier to complete the Quest Pet sets! Pet Quest Bosses will now drop 3 eggs instead of 2. Additionally, after you have defeated a Pet Quest Boss two times, those eggs will be gem-purchasable in the Market like all other eggs, so that your party doesn't have to replay the same quest over and over :)

Critical Hammer Of Bug-Crushing[]
Some of you may have noticed that we periodically have some bugs that are nastier than the norm - the dreaded critical bugs. These monstrous apparitions have been snapping at the heels of many a player. For updates on what we're currently working on to improve site stability, read this link - and then jump in to help! Not only will programming assistance reward you with the usual contributor levels, but if you actually manage to fix a bug marked "critical," you will now receive the Critical Hammer of Bug-Crushing as your reward!
Rainbow Hair Colors[]
Want to spruce up your avatar? Rainbow hair colors are now available! Dye your luscious locks purple, green, or even rainbow-striped, and passersby will look at you with envy.
Stability Update[]
We've stabilized the site a lot (we're still working out kinks, but we're way better now). Follow the progress here, but here are some workarounds for now:
Click slower. VersionError is caused by clicking things off too fast (we're working on a fix). If you see an error, refresh before proceeding.

Vice[]
You awaken after the Winter Wonderland festivities and birthday celebrations with a smile. It's been a snowy, cheerful couple months, and the NPCs have finally returned to their normal attire. But today something is very wrong. Shadowy whisps cover the ground of Habitica, the sky has darkened. At the tavern you hear @DanielTheBard struming dark tales on his lute, and @Baconsaur peering into a mug, grumbling about her mounts swallowed in the shadows. They speak of the same thing: Vice, a dark an terrible foe. This new boss arc is a 3-part quest that requires level 30 to begin. Bring your strongest party members, and don't miss your dailies - there's a powerful weapon at the end!

What would a birthday be without birthday cake in a myriad of flavors? Of course, pets are very picky, but luckily Lemoness and her team of bakers have plenty of slices to go around. Mmm, delicious!
Last Day of Winter Wonderland Event[]
Also, just a reminder - January 31st is the final day of the Winter Wonderland event, so it's your last day to get the Limited Edition Winter Hair Colors, the Winter Outfits, the snowballs, and the Trapper Santa and Find the Cub quest scrolls. Remember that mid-progress Trapper Santa and Find the Cub quests will not abort, nor will you lose your scrolls - they will simply be removed from Alexander's Marketplace. We hope that you've had a wonderful winter!
Birthday Bash Badge[]
Finally, to commemorate the fun, all party participants receive a birthday badge! Polish it frequently and wear it fondly.
Thanks so much for being a part of the HabitRPG community. We love you guys, and we can't wait to have you at our sides in the upcoming year! Stay productive, Habiteers, and have an awesome day.

Group Plans[]
We've begun adding plans for groups (parents, teachers, health & wellness administrators, etc). These plans will provide group leaders with more control, privacy, security, and support. Currently only the Organization Plan (top tier) is available (due to tech limitations believe it or not), and we'll be releasing the Family & Group plans later. Click the "Contact Us" buttons if you're interested, and we'll keep you updated!
Individual Plan[]
We've introduced a $5/mo basic subscription plan. It comes with a number of perks, which you can see here. We'll likely add more benefits over time, follow the conversation here.
Perfect Day Achievement[]
Now when you complete all your dailies, you stack this badge, plus and additional perk: you get a +(level/2) buff to all stats!
Spread The Word Challenge Update[]
We have 1k+ submissions, holy cow! Great job everyone! Now, we need to go through these manually, so it will take a few days to a couple weeks to process. The challenge will stay open until we're done choosing our winners, but be sure to edit the To-Do with your submission URL before 1/31, as that's the cut-off date for processing. We'll send a Tweet out when the winner has been selected, so follow @habitrpg and stay tuned.

Gryphon Quest[]
A new pet has been introduced, the Gryphon. You can find some eggs by battling the Fiery Gryphon Boss, a quest scroll available in the Market.
Note: we'll be fixing the beast-master achievement to work from the original 90 in coming days. Fear not current beast-masters, you'll get sorted soon!

"Spread The Word" Challenge Updates[]
If you're not yet participating, check out the Spread The Word Challenge, which has a large prize and many winners. We've made some updates: upped the prize to 80 gems for the top 20 posts, 100 gems for the winner. Note: some people are listing their submission as a Tumblr reblog of someone else's post, often with added commentary. Though reblogs are greatly appreciated, we can only count original submissions. Read more challenge guidelines here.
Quest Deadlines[]
To clear some confusion, you have until Jan 31, 2014 to purchase your quest scrolls, after 1/31 Alexander no longer sells them. You can still begin / finish your quests any time after. Thanks to @Cole, you're now allowed to purchase the Cub quest even if you haven't finished Trapper. Stock up!

Limited-Edition Winter Class Outfits[]
Happy winter! Instead of a boring pair of earmuffs, why not use the gold that you earned with all your hard work to buy a Limited Edition class outfit?
From now until January 31st, you will be able to use your gold to buy your current class' armor set from the Rewards store! You can be a Yeti Tamer, a Ski-Sassin, a Candy Cane Mage, or a Snowflake Healer. If you switch classes (system unlocked at level 10), you will gain access to your new classes' armor set. Make sure to collect yours first, though!
What are you waiting for? Go be productive and earn some gold! by @lemoness
