1. December - Alchemy, Desert and Mythics

Happy Holiday season to you all dear Sagians! 
As usual, December will most likely be a bit slower month as the staff team quiets down to spend the Holiday season. So we ask for your patience as we take bit time off for ourselves. 
Remember to take time for yourself as well, and have as peaceful Holiday times as possible! ♥

What will 2026 bring to Sagittari?
There is plans and goals to bring a new large lore event sometime during spring of 2026.
Are you ready for the Divine Judgement?
Caprine Research is to be expected to be completed sometime during 2026. We will have an Anniversary semi shop in July, and another shop whenever Caprines arrive to game. 

From us to you all, we gift you 1x free use of new import background: Winter village. 
To compensate missing Holiday themed minievent, we also give you the opportunity claim last years Nisse event's Holiday themed import decorations: 1 x Yule hat, 1 x Yule Crown Set & 1 x Sleepy Snowfields

>Reply here to claim these Holiday Gifts!<

Have yourself a merry Holidays season and a very happy New year!
- SagiStaff team ♥

• As the Alchemy research was completed during November, your hard work is now rewarded with Alchemy!
  Go forth and find those alchemy scrolls! These are the starting recipes, and we are open to more suggestions for more recipes.
  
• We held a voting in Sagittari Discord server about how soon to release a new Research. The members voted to release a new Research only after the Caprine research was completed. This wish will be honored, so no new Research quite yet!
• And it's only fitting that alongside the Alchemy mechanic we release an Alchemist profession!
  This is an open profession, so not tied to villagers or nomads.

And where did the brave researching Sagitaurs uncover the secrets of Alchemy? From the largest desert of the isle! 

• Desert exploration area is out! Time to seek out what other secrets hide under it's vast sand dunes. 
  You can, for example, find the Statue of a Deity, a mutation booster item for the Blind/Mute/Deaf mutation.
• Alongside this new exploration area, there is new common loot drops added to all exploration areas, survivals and culture. Each category got 1x new Common loot item.
• Mythic combo basecolors have been discovered!
  All breeding requests posted from December 1st onward have a chance to get Mythic. When you breed Black or White to Dusk or Dawn, there is a chance the offspring is born with Lavender (/Lv), Lemon (/Lm), Indigo (/Id) or Wine (/Wn) basecolor.
  And speaking of colors. Don't worry, we have heard your wished for blues and greens. And to that we say, be patient and look far into the horizon. 
• Sagittari Isle map has been updated with a glow-up version! 
  The shape and landforms of the isle have remained same, as well as locations on it. Some new small islands have been added, as well as rivers and lakes. Village markers have remained in same places.
• Sagittari of December 2025 has been voted to be 0156 - Berkut, congratulations!
  Remember to vote for next month's Sagittari of the Month!
• Weather Phenomenon has been updated! December is looking fittingly sparkly
• Coloration rules for tails, including the feline tail tuft, has been updated on Free areas & extras page.
• Added missing info in Rankings on how rank reward Traits work: If your centaur has max trait amount reached and you decide not to switch any traits through rank rewards, then you will be given a trait applicator as a compensation so no reward is lost from the rank up.  
• Exp guide's "Irregularly shaped window-like backgrounds" portion (wow that needs a shorter name) got a new example
• Aurora got an explanation how it can be affected by Recolor.
