It's the season of giving! Right now on Lioden, you can leave gifts or poop for other players. Leaving one gift or one poop will add towards a global total. Once a global total in one bar is reached, a special area is unlocked! Both areas can be unlocked, and everyone can use them once they are unlocked. Work together and give to get these areas!

You will be able to dig up gifts and poop left to you by other players from the 25th December until the event ends.

Event Information  

This event is highly focused on exploring and community interaction.
The explore encounters exclusive to this month can be found in all biomes.
Your lion's karma and level, as well as the biome you explore in, do not matter for this event.

In December, the community is working to unlock three tiers of two different bars.
The more gifts that are given to other players, the faster the Guelta will unlock.
The more poops that are left in other players' dens, the faster the Wallowing Pit will unlock.
As the Guelta and Wallowing Pit progress and open, they will unlock the Mantis Shop!
Then, as the Mantis Shop further unlocks, the lands of Africa will become snowier and snowier—and snuhlions will become available!

This month's currency is Stink Bugs.
Stink Bugs can be gained in Explore and winning battles against certain NPCs. There is also a chance that you can gain Stink Bugs from digging up poop bundles left in your den. The ability to dig up bundles begins on December 25th.

For the entire month of December, there will only be a wet season. You will not see any hint of dry season until December ends.

The December event launches on December 1st at 12am Lioden time and will end on December 31st at 11:59pm Lioden time. All unused event currency will be stored on your account until the next year.


Gifting and Pooping  

During December, when you visit another player's den page, you'll have the option to Gift! or Leave Poop.

Giving.  'Tis the season of giving!  You can leave this user one gift for them to dig up on December 25th.  Your choice of gift, however, is entirely up to you... A link is provided to their wishlist.  There is a checkbox option to remain anonymous when gifting or pooping.  You can choose one item, a bundle of SB, or a bundle of GB.  Or... You could do something a bit naughty.  You could leave some poop for them to dig up.  Not quite the most savoury of gifts, but hey, maybe they'd appreciate it... (Perhaps remaining anonymous for this is a good idea!).

You can gift or poop an individual player twice per week. The cooldowns for gifting and pooping reset every Wednesday and Saturday at rollover (2:05am Lioden time)! You'll find the Take me to a random player's territory! link to be quite handy for your gifting and pooping endeavours. This link can be found at any time via the Event tab on Lioden, and you can even bookmark it for quick access.

The options to gift and poop are available right from the start of the event, but will only last until December 24th 11:59pm Lioden time. Make sure you visit as many players' dens as possible within this given time so that everyone accumulates lots of bundles! Do keep in mind that a player must have logged in within the past 8 days in order to be eligible for a gift or poop.

You are able to freely give any amount of Silver Beetles (10 SB is the minimum amount to gift), Gold Beetles, or one item each time you gift a player. If you take care to track how often you can gift or poop, you can potentially leave 8 bundles per player during December (for the year 2020, anyway)! What these bundles contain is entirely up to you, but you may be interested to know that Gifting gives you +1 karma per gift left, while pooping gives you -1 karma per poop left.

If you tick the checkbox to make your gift or poop anonymous, the player who opens the bundle will not know who it's from! This is great if you want to shower your friends (or your enemies?) in surprise smelly gift bundles.

When you leave a gift in another player's den, you'll receive the following popup.

Success! You have left a gift for this player. You walk away feeling all warm and fuzzy inside!

When you leave a poop in another player's den, you'll receive the following popup.

Well... It may not be the most conventional of gifts, but maybe you're just letting the other lion know how you feel about them. Or maybe you're just weird.

If you visit the den page of a player you've already gifted (before the bi-weekly reset), you'll see this.

'Tis the season of giving! You have left this user a gift, buried in their den. How nice of you. They'll be able to dig it up on December 25th.

Don't fear, though! As mentioned previously, cooldowns reset every Wednesday and Saturday, so you'll be able to gift (or poop!) again.

From December 25th 00:00am LDT to December 31st 11:59pm LDT, you will be able to open up your bundles that others have left and see all the goodies (or poops) you got! Don't be upset if lots of people left you poop. Each poop bundle has a chance of giving you +1 Stink Bug!


Festive Gift  

For giving a total of 888 gifts to other players during the month of December, your kindness is awarded with a base applicator: Festive Gift! Poops do not count towards the Festive Gift counter. Only currency and items do.

As soon as you give your 888th gift, a popup will display at the top of your page.

Success! You have left a gift for this player. You walk away feeling all warm and fuzzy inside!

Oh! What's this?

You got 1x Festive Gift!
Festive Gift applicator.

You can earn one Festive Gift per account per year.

Once you receive the popup, the applicator is then placed into your hoard and you can do with it as you please. Visit the Bases section of this page to see what the Festive base looks like!


Gifting Cave  

Due to popular request from players, a special gifting area that allows players to submit gifts for Lioden's moderators was added in December 2023! It is currently unknown at this time if it will return for future years.


This feature is completely voluntary and exists for those who want to show some appreciation towards the site's volunteer staff members. All gifts sent to the Gifting Cave are distributed evenly between the site's moderators. Initially, it was planned to give the gifts automatically on December 25th, but the gifting was postponed to the 27th. As Lioden's site admins are not anonymous and can be gifted directly via their den pages, they are not included in this feature.

The Gifting Cave states that currency is divided in a weighted ratio amongst trainees and longer term moderators, and will be as even as possible. Items are distributed as evenly as possible based on item type. Any currency and items left over will be stored to be gifted the following year, though it is unknown at this time whether the Gifting Cave will return in 2024 or future years.

Taking part in the Gifting Cave does not contribute towards the event bar, but does contribute towards your personal goal for the 888 gifts challenge. You may give one gift at most. You cannot leave poop or custom decors at the Gifting Cave.


Reptile Roundup  

For giving a combined total of 666 gifts or 666 poops (or any combination that totals to 666) during the month of December, you will unlock the Snuhlands level in Reptile Roundup! You will also unlock the Albino Snake skin for giving 666 gifts and the Mole Snake skin for giving 666 poops.

Visit the Reptile Roundup page to see what prizes you can receive from this level.


Explore Encounters  

Some encounters this month will only appear once it's snowy enough in Africa! This means that when tiers unlock, more encounters will display.

Hover over the icons in the upper right corner to see whether an encounter is available during daytime, nighttime, wet season, or dry season. If on mobile, you can tap the icons for the same effect.

Every sunrise you wake up to this. Why is the ground getting cold and white?
Exhausted from prancing around in snuh all day, you settle down to take a nap. As you're drifting off, a beautiful black wolf passes you by, smiling mysteriously. "Would you like to live deliciously?" asks the wolf.
Action Result Reward
Yes, please! The wolf wags his tail gently. "Follow me to my... wolf den," he says. When you try to get up and move, you find yourself waking up from a nap in the snuh. Huh... maybe you shouldn't have eaten all that yellow snuh. N/A

You roll on the shore, laughing heartily as the wet Manticore climbs out on the other side of the lake. Through your guffaws, you hear him yelling profanities such as "You charming asshole!" and "If you weren't so pretty, I'd punch your face". Hilarious.

Action Result Reward
Celebrate You run towards them, excitedly asking about their holidays and offering to show them around. You spend the day together, chatting about future events, exchanging gifts, and laughing about silly neighbours.

Unfortunately, it's not the time for a celestial raffle to take place, and they were unimpressed by your offering of glowing worms. There's so much snuh around to play with instead!

Oh, no! It looks like the falling snuh has disturbed the Harbinger's peaceful slumber beneath the ground. The poor thing is shivering, not used to cold temperatures, and its usual dark and wet fur is now all frosted and fluffed up. Thankfully the sky is cloudy, so the Harbinger can safely find some refuge.
Action Result Reward
Offer warmth! You offer your pride's feline companionship, knowing how well they can cuddle up into a purring pile and warm up anyone and anything. The Harbinger declines, appreciative of your offer, and states it has decided to descend deeper into some nearby caverns to rest in dark solitude... or have some "me time". It's not your business anyway. The Harbinger graciously bestows upon you a consolation gift before skulking off to continue its search for solace. +2 Stink Bugs
+1 Coal

Begone! You growl before letting out a fierce roar, scaring off the Mngwa. Begone, foul creature! Its behaviour is too unknown and unpredictable for you to feel comfortable having it around your pride. What if it eats cubs?! -2 Karma

Action Result Reward
Steal food You roar at the boys, which causes Anubis to drop the food in surprise and Laharu to turn into a stressed fluffball.

Action Result Reward

When they finish building a snuh fort that you helped them with, they drop off some items they used to maintain their form in this dimension. Aliens are real, man! The truth is right here in your paws!

Action Result Reward
What are you? The animal looks around nervously. "I am a jaguar and I think I got lost while being shipped to a zoo in Johannesburg. I...

Mine You huff and you puff and blow the other lion away. +1 Shark Carcass
Mine You start asking the lion why is his nose so big and his eyes so big, and his fangs so sharp. He eventually gets bored of your questions and leaves. +1 Shark Carcass
Mine "Okay!" Said the lion and gave you his shark. And everyone lived happily ever after. +1 Shark Carcass
You notice a very disturbing scene. These elephants seem to be burying their calf in a dung pile...
Action Result Reward
Gasp You let out a gasp, witnessing this elephant mob activity. They turn towards you, startled by the noise you made. RUN! You dash into some dried barbs, since delicate elephant skin won't go near them. A little scratched, you come out a bit later with a souvenir. +2 to 3 Karma
+2 to 4 Stink Bugs
Approach You approach the elephants, suggesting your discovery can be made public unless they give you something to keep quiet. They grumble, but give you currency in exchange to keep their secret hidden. -2 to -3 Karma
+2 to 4 Stink Bugs
Hide You decide to hide, and not let the Elephant mafia notice you. In the shadowy bush, you notice some bugs crawling around. +2 to 4 Stink Bugs
You roll in the falling "snuh"!
You spot a great celestial being playing with sparkly cubs along a river bank. It's the Demiurge! He looks at you and smiles, clearly a little troubled and overwhelmed by the energy of the cubs. "Oh, hello! We just stopped by for a short while. I wanted these cubs to learn about their home. They're learning so much about the outer worlds, so it's very important for them to remember the one they were born in, too."
Action Result Reward
Play with them! You offer to take some of the burden off of the Demiurge's shoulders by playing with the cubs. They seem to have mostly forgotten about their time on Earth, and they do not appear to recognise you as a lion of any significance, but you end up having many laughs and a bitten tail anyway! The group leaves you with a gift for your time before you continue to get on your way. +3 Stink Bugs
+1 Gem: Celestite
NOTE: This encounter has a chance of appearing only if you have fully completed the Journey to Vredefort Crater questline.
You spot a group of adolescent lions behaving oddly. They appear to be dancing, talking to a tiny box, and being excited about a "tick tock" or something like that. The younger generation really baffles you sometimes.
Action Result Reward
Join the dancing You leave your worries behind and join in! You learn some new dances from the very social, extroverted youngsters, who encourage you to express yourself the whole time. They're so positive and warm towards everyone, you can't help but be filled with lots of hope for the future to come. They seem impressed that you've embraced their way of life without putting them down. +2 to 3 Karma
+1 Stink Bug
+2% Impression
Watch in confusion You're a little out of touch when it comes to what the youngins are doing with their free time nowadays. They danced, they commented on some issues, and they invented intense challenges. It was all quite interesting, up until the box they were playing with fell from the rock holding it and broke, forcing them to get bored and leave. You get up, stretch a bit, and investigate the empty playground. +2 Stink Bugs
+2% Energy
+1 Broken Camera
You start calling the white falling things "snuh".
You stick your tongue out and some "snuh" falls on it - teehee!
You stumble upon Laharu, the friendly and ever-so-hungry striped hyena! You can see he has something in his mouth, and he's trying to run away from you. Does he think you'll steal it? Is he ashamed? Is... is that a cub?! Is that a HYENA cub?! Is that his SON? What if it's not?! Is he running away to EAT it?! LAHARU!!! IT'S NOT FOOD!!! Oh, geez... he's too far away to hear you now.
You wander through these jolly lands,
before your eyes a Felis stands.
With his thick leg held up high,
the Felis roars, "I feel just fine!"
Your breath forms a small, cold icicle on your nose. It tickles.
"What's up, Greg? Guess what?" A loud voice catches your attention. You turn around to find a charming young lion looking intensely at you, like he fully believes you're the Greg he's looking for. Perhaps he's mistaking you for someone else?
Action Result Reward
I am not Greg "What? Of course you are," the lion laughs nervously. "But just in case you aren't, you will be. Anyway, um, have you seen that lion who only eats HUMAN LIVER? You should check it out!" he exclaims excitedly, before taking you on a short journey filled with amazing commentary. +1 Stink Bug
+10% Energy
+1 Human Liver
What? "There's this lion who only eats HUMAN LIVER. He looks RIPPED. We should try doing that for a week, but, uh... you know what? I don't think it'd be healthy for me. But YOU? Oh, yeah. You look like you have a good base. You look great. Amazing. You try it, okay? Let me know how it goes!" +2 Human Liver

The Guelta is unlocked by progressing through the gifting bar.
At the Guelta, you can restore some of your energy by clicking the Oh Yes... Drink Up! button.


You crouch down by the Guelta and drink... You feel so refreshed! (+# energy)

Tier One of the Guelta grants +5% energy per hour.
Tier Two of the Guelta grants +10% energy per hour.
Tier Three of the Guelta grants +15% energy per hour.


Wallowing Pit  


Yeeesh! This place stinks. But it seems to be a popular area for elephants and hippos to wade around in.. And with herbivores means there's always the chance of finding something they left behind. So what are you waiting for? Get digging and find some items!

With each unlock, more rare items will be available to be found in the Wallowing Pit.

The Wallowing Pit is unlocked by progressing through the pooping bar.
At the Wallowing Pit, you can dig up junk and treasures galore by clicking the Let's Get Dirty... Dig Away! button.


You dig around in the wallowing pit for a while... And pull out a(n) ITEM NAME!

Snuhlions  

Tier two of the Guelta and the Wallowing Pit unlock the ability to build snuhlions in other players' dens!

Snuhlions are lovely snuh sculptures (actually some are pretty creepy) that can only be made by the lions of Lioden! They will show up on your den page at the top to scare the crap out of you—that's so you can then poop on everyone else's dens, right?

You do not have to build snuhlions. They're just fun little additional features to add to December's wacky vibes!

To make a snuhlion, just visit another active player's den page. At the very top, you'll find a button. Click that button, and a snuhlion to be proud of (or... not) will be built! You cannot make a snuhlion in your own den.

There is enough Snuh in this lion's den to make a Snuhlion!

Ho Ho Ho! Be Creative!
You get to work, pushing snuh into a big pile and smacking it, pawing and licking to get a nice shape! After some time you proudly take a step back, cringe at this horrible art and run away before anyone notices you. Unfortunately you left your scent all around so they'll know anyway.


Made by A Disturbed Laharu. What a horrible travesty.

Wow. That's, erm... that's something, alright.

If you come across a den page that says the player has enough snuh, but you don't see the button to build a snuhlion, it means that you are on a snuhlion-building cooldown. You can build a snuhlion once every hour.

If you do not want to keep a snuhlion that someone has built in your den, then you have the option to Destroy it.

The horrible.. thing left in your den has been destroyed. Huzzah!
This Den is pretty warm and clean right now.

When you see the above message, it means that your den (or the player whose den you are visiting) is on a two-hour cooldown from having a snuhlion built in their den.

You do not have to worry about snuhlions affecting karma. Making one does not give you karma, and destroying one does not lower your karma, either! Make snuhlions to your heart's content without worrying about your Deathlord status from all that pooping!


Snuhlion Designs  

There are many different snuhlions you can build! Which one creeps you out the least?


Advent Calendar  

The Advent Calendar is an annual occurrence that begins each year on December 22nd 12am LDT and ends on December 30th 11:59pm LDT.

Each day beginning from December 22nd, a numbered slot is "unlocked" and becomes available for you to click on, all the way until you have collected the eighth and last reward. In order to collect your rewards, you must click on the numbered slots in order from 1 to 8.
