Otter
Otters are trainable pets that can be purchased for $50 USD from the Utility -> Billing menu. The proceeds go towards the purchase of a service dog for Otter, one of the game's first volunteer world builders.
No doubt some of you may have noticed that our newest immigrants are otters. Let me tell you what that's all about, and how some of you may be able to help out a fellow ATITD friend. Otter, who you may have encountered doing world building or camp decoration, has been with ATITD since pretty much the beginning - before the release of Tale 1. [...] Otter has always done this for fun. However, she's had some health problems lately and could really make good use of a service dog. These dogs are highly trained - you can read about them here: http://www.pawswithacause.org
So I thought it might be a good idea to code up a new kind of pet, an otter, and sell them for $50, and all the money would go to buy a service dog for Otter. And so that's what we've done. The dogs cost $15,000, and already we've raised [in the first day] $3,550.
Otters will last for the entire Tale, they're adorable, fun to train, and you're helping out someone who's always been a big part of creating this experience, So if you're able, adop an otter!
