If you link us, we'll at least check out your pet's site, and if we like it, we'll probably link you back :)

Hello fellow Neopians and visitors! My name is Madly Valiant, the Tremendously Terrific Tonu. Most people call me Mad Val. I'm a fairly easy-going Tonu, but I do not like being called just "Mad" or just "Val.

My owner, Rayinte_Sloth, decided to create me one afternoon when she noticed that there were available Tonus. In fact, she created the Rayinte_Sloth account with the intention of getting a Tonu, but could not think of a name in time. She later acquired a Draik Egg and my big sister Lyssamre was hatched.

Ray is strange. She never really wanted a Tonu. Why then, you ask, did she get one? No clue. My name might call me "mad," but Ray is truly truly insane.

So she sat with me and Lyssamre for a few moments after returning from Create-A-Pet and realized... I don't want a Tonu. I never wanted a Tonu. I think Tonus are ugly. ... Of course, I was not offended. Ray is delusional, she obviously has impaired judgement. I heard her wondering why there weren't more chubby women in the Miss America Pageant, which (I think) is some sort of human Beauty Contest.

Since Ray rather liked my name, and since I *am* a Limited Edtion Pet, we all decided that I'd stay on a provisional basis.

Apparently Ray came to her senses long enough to see the cuteness inherent in my gorgeous body, and decided to let me stay. Heh, as if there was any question!

A little bit after I came to live with Ray and Lyssa, Ray brought home another Pet. Well, she's always bringing home pets from the pound, but this was to be another sibling. Ergmore is a big yellow Skeith. Unfortunately, he is just as insane as Ray... but thankfully he's also a lazzy sluggard (hmm, also much like Ray) and thus spends most of his time eating or sleeping!

So we're a family of four. Me, Lyssa, Ergmore, and Ray... and somehow Ray managed to get a license to be a foster parent, so we frequently take in strays for a week or two!

I'm not saying Ray neglects us. And she does a good job, most of the time. Most people just paint a pet and toss it back in the pound. Ray goes through the trouble of also editing their sites (though to a degree nowhere near the level of Awesomeness that is MY site!) and providing a free stay at the Neolodge and some small battledome items!

Ray doesn't give out petpets anymore--people too often adopt a pet, steal the petpet, and put the pet back into the pound. Ray is sickened by this behavior... at least one of her responses is normal!!!

Speaking of Petpets, I have one! As part of her decision to make me an official pet, Ray found a petpet for me. Addled the BaBaa is a hugely insane little bleater, she has obviously been exposed to Ray for too long.

You might wonder why her name is "Mav Addled" ... but I refer to her strictly by "Addled." This is a symptom of Ray's insanity. Her Petpets all (well, almost all) have double-names. The first name is usually a one-syllable bit of nonsense that only has meaning for Ray. Just disregard it, Addled's name is Addled.

Addled scares me sometimes. I like to keep an eye on her. Notice the odd purple shading. This is a sign of insanity. Take note of the bulging eyes. Another sign of insanity. And do you see those ears? She's obviously a complete lunatic.

I think I'm safe from whatever BaBaa plot Addled has in store... she seems to like me. She follows me everywhere I go, and whenever I'm not going somewhere, she prances and frolics ... but is always looking at me.
