This week's question is from Sue~
who asked Pumpernickel: What’s the star on your chest for ?

The star? Oh! That’s my official Nightexplorer Society Membership badge. :.^___^.: ! It shows that I’ve passed my training and successfully submitted my first report to the archives. See, all Nightexplorers have to train in the field with a senior member- you know to get the proper survival and observational techniques down. We also have to learn how to write reports and keep travel journals as it’s the center of our task as Nightexplorers. On top of that we need to learn communication, diplomacy, and other similar related skills. I know that sounds really boring, but trust me, in the field there’s little to bore a Nightexplorer’s eye and mind. There are so many new things to see, do, and understand and so many other creatures to meet and befriend. Ahhh! I’m getting so excited just sitting here and talking about it. :.^o^.: ! One day if I’m lucky, I’ll be able to train a new Nightexplorer myself. After all, a Nightexplorer’s job is never really done- that’s what makes it all so much fun and thrilling!

!! ~ NEWS --- Chibi Hill Monsters have been sighted ~ !!

Look at this cute fellow who strolled into my garden this morning. He was just too cute, so I brought him in for a little photoshoot. That's when I disovered it was a little Hill Monster (!) looking for a place to roam feed. And who could say no to those big blue eyes? Certainly not me. ^_^; So it seems I have a new house guests- I'm sure the Meeps will be very happy about this.

Each Chibi Hill Monster Plushie is about 7 1/2 inches tall by 9 inches long. They have long and soft Furry Fleece body with Super-soft Mirco Fleece accents inside their ears and on their underside where an official "World of Pumpernickel" tag can be seen. They also have big blue safety eyes (that will melt your heart instantly) and a small velvety horn from which a tree will hopefully grow as they get bigger. They are all nicely plump (filled with 100% polyfilber) with a small bag of polypellets inside to help them sit up (sometimes they need a little training in this department).

Since Hill Monsters are largely self-sufficient, you won't have to worry about feeding them daily or even on trips away from home. They do like a few treats every now and again. ^_^ ! Though typically quiet in nature there have been reports of a few wild exceptions- They say it's all in the tilt of the ears. They make great friends or even awesome gifts! Please note that each Cibi Hill Monster is an individually handmade by the artist herself- so they may differ slightly from the one pictured above.

-------- Each Chibi Hill Monster is just $10.00 plus S&H -------

!~ Meep Adoptions Now Open ~!

Look what I've just discovered! MEEPS! These little cuties are just a bit lonely- so give them a great loving home! They love to be cuddled and make great pets or travel companions! Each one measures about 4 1/2 inches square. They come in the above colors: green, black, and purple. The green and purple Meeps have black safety eyes and the black Meep have red buttons for eyes. Each one is lovingly handmade out of Alpine Fleece by me, Squeaks. They are all individuals, so no two are alike and they may vary slightly from the ones pictured above. They come with helpful hints and facts about Meeps , so don't be afraid if you're a first time owner. ^_^ ! Join the Meep Owners board on the World of Pumpernickel Message Board !

Select your Meep type----->

-------- The Adoption Fee for each Meep is $ 7.00 plus S&H --------

 

They're almost as cute from behind as they are from the front. All the Meeps have little sparkling pom-pom tails! The green Meep has a yellow tail. the black Meep has a blue tail, and the purple Meep has a pink tail. Their bottoms also sport a the World of Pumpernickel label, so you don't confuse them super wild Meeps.
Just A little note on Meeps: Green Meeps like to grow and tend plants (even houseplants). They love the outdoors and are the most adventurous of the Meeps. Black Meeps usually come out only at night and are the only currently known carnivorous Meep. They eat just about anything they can fit into their mouths and can be trained, they say, to be faithful watch Meep. Purple Meeps tend to be the most shy of all and prefer comfortable and shadowy locations. Don't be too surprised if they make themselves right at home in your bed under your pillow or between your socks in a drawer.

A Message from Squeaks  
 

What....? I'm so confused too, Nibbles. What does he mean? Whatever he's talking about Gingerbell doesn't seem to agree.....Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

I've opened the Ask and Answer section up to- Ask the Cast- And it's exactly as it sounds. You get to ask any Cast member a question and if they can they'll answer back and I'll post it here for everyone to read - a new one every week!
Please, ask only nice questions. Pumpernickel and Taile far very busy exploring so they probably won't be able to answer every question ...so please understand if yours doesn't get posted. You can always post some questions on the Pumpernickel forum and see if fellow readers, myself or other traveling Nightexplorers can answer it for you. ^_^
