I know it's been a while since the LDP, but during the revamp of the Lost Desert, did the Lost Desert Calculator disappear? If so, could you bring it back? I could then have an excuse for being on Neopets when my maths aren't done! =)
Yes, the Lost Desert Calculator was removed from the map during the revamp, despite several of us whining about it.

I have a Desert pet, can you add him/her to your directory?
Of course! Just neomail Trisha (my rather odd and random owner) this form.

Can you add my pet that isn't painted Desert? I'm planning on painting him/her later.
I'm afraid only pets that are currently painted Desert could be added here.

Can you add cross-painted pets?
Yes, and they will be added in the "Desert Style" section for those wonderful twice-painted pets.

Can you add my friend's/family member's pet to your directory?
Yes, but I need their permission first before I could put their pet here.

When do you update?
I update this directory daily.

Why make a Desert Pet Directory?
I'm quite fond of Desert pets and their designs. Plus, Vennaline is also painted Desert. So, I made this Directory in honor of all the Desert Royals out there, and of course, of Venna as well.

That's what people usually think whenever they hear the words "Lost Desert".

But I tell you, my home is more than the "giant sandbox" you probably think.
It is filled with marvelous, and perhaps very unbelievable, tales that tell of heroic deeds and brave acts of those who try to defend the land.

Population

Approximately 346,000
(27% Elephante, 22% Nimmo, 20% Lupe,
11% Aisha, 9% Kacheek, 7% Peophin, 4% Other)

She, of the Desert Sun,
sits upon her golden throne,
her sapphire eyes gazing upon
an Empire as old as stone.

A staff of power on her right,
a ring of gold around her head:
one of courage and might,
the hope when all things hang by a thread.

The winds are changing.
The sands are shifting.
Will things ever be the same?

Name Vennaline Tyrane Ayth'ri
Pronounced as Ve-na-lin Tee-ran Ay-th-ree
Also known as Ven or Venna
Born on June 10, 2003
Age 16 years
Gender Female
Species Shoyru
Hair I have dark brown hair, usually styled in some elegant manner.
Eyes Sapphire
Appearance I wear the Ayth'ri markings (the swirls around my eyes) during formal occassions. I usually wears a ton of jewelry, and prefer formal clothing.
Abilities I have the Desert Magic. Mine is said to be a very powerful kind since it's passed down through the Royal Ayth'ri line, but due to several complications (which includes a treacherous Regent and scheming Council Members), I wasn't fully trained, and so, don't really know how to fully wield that power.
BC status Not entered at the moment. But, perhaps, in December...

	Ithalyas... My realm. My empire. My home. Here, I stand up high and strong. It is at the Southern part of the Desert, a few miles from the city of Qasala. It was founded by Lord Vallion Seth'el, but was conquered by Lord Darienn Ayth'ri. Not a glorious past, I know, but does it really matter? The Here and the Now... and the people who live... that's what we should focus on.
	The Ayth'ri Palace... At the heart of the Empire lies the Palace, built thousands of years ago by my ancestors of the Royal Ayth'ri line. It's perhaps the grandest Palace in the whole Desert Realm, constructed by Ithalyas' Mages of Old.
	Gardens... Here, at the Palace, is the Ayth'ri gardens. I spend my time here often: just sitting around and writing... at peace, without a care in the world.
	Lessons... Oh, not those boring ones if that's what you're thinking. By lessons, I mean those that deal with Desert Magic. As I've said before, I didn't get any training (thanks to those -awesome- council members and regent /sarcasm) so I'd like to be prepared, please.
	Desert Delicacies... And by food, I mean the edible kind o.O Cakes, Truffles, other delicacies... in other words, anything -not- rotten or awful-smelling.
	The Ithalyas Royal Guard... They protect the city, and therefore, they are awesome. Enough said.
	Jewelry... Who wouldn't like them? Every noble lady must at least have a set of jewels at hand. I, myself, have a personal collection of tiaras, necklaces and other trinkets ready for any occasion.
	Elegant dresses... I wear formal dresses most of the time since I find them quite... lovely. That is, when I don't have my lessons that keep me moving about.

	Those who try to take over or threaten to destroy the Empire with their villainous plots Pretty self-explanatory, I might say.
	Disgusting food What IS that?
	Time How it flies... and things quickly change. If only I could stop it, or even turn it back.

I also enter the Beauty Contest whenever I have the time... usually when I'm not so busy with all this Royal work and all. Perhaps in the Summer or Winter? We shall see.

I currently have 3 trophies -- one of each, if I may add.

	Lianesa The Dreamer Grey Who Conquers Night She's quite the eccentric one. I mean, come on, who doesn't find getting random visions every now and then creepy, then ? But then again, she's quite all right... makes sense most of the time.
	Caedir I lurk in the Shadows Demented. The right word to describe this rather negative Peophin. Honestly, she drives me -insane- with those insults, and has a habit of destroying a perfectly good plan. I believe she tries to help out. I think.
	Caylir Jump! Spread your wings! Touch the sky! Caedir's sister... and complete opposite. She is so... happy. To the point that it's extremely annoying already. But she's a good friend, I guess... always the one to try and lighten things up even if there's no hope at all.
	Jaeire Such power... and it is all mine Demanding and obnoxious. Possibly the most annoying Draik in the history of the world. But then again, he -did- manage to save my life once or twice. Or thrice.

Here are some lovely portraits made by rather amazing people out there. Thank you again for these C:

Piper Panic
Help the JubJub piper charm his Cobralls!

Instructions
Move the Cobrall by clicking or by using the arrow keys.

Note that the Cobrall will move in a straight line, and it should hit a basket to prevent it from hitting the edge of the carpet.

If there is no basket to stop it, you will lose a Cobrall. You have a limited amount of time to clear the carpet of baskets so try to think of a better path which would only use a few moves.

Ruins Rampage
Navigate the twists and turns of a maze of ruins.

Instructions
Use the arrow keys to navigate your way around the maze, avoiding the traps scattered around the place.

Collect gold and silver coins for extra points as you search for the Golden Scorchstone.

Once you've gotten it, find your way back to the entrance of the maze.

The Great Desert Race
Be the first one to cross the Lost Desert!

Instructions
This is like a board game. You get to choose from one of the four characters (Tomos, Nabile, Brucey and Osiri) and roll the die to see how many spaces you can move up.

There are items scattered across the game which could help you, but then, there are also some obstacles that could hinder you from reaching Sakhmet.

Word Pyramid
Spell words in order to escape the ancient tomb.

Instructions
Select the tiles to spell a word and click the "Go" button or the Spacebar. However, the tiles must touch the other tiles of the letters in the word.

If ever you need a vowel, they can be bought by selecting them at the right. The blank tiles represent any vowel. There's limited time in the game so be quick before time runs out!

Tug 'O' War
Stay on your feet and out of the water!

Instructions
There are two game modes. You can choose the 1 Player option or the 2 Player option.

Choose from one of the five characters by using the A, S, D and W keys. To pull your oponent towards the river, press "A".

The Rage Bar = When your character is pulled towards the river, you gain Rage. Once the Rage bar is full, you can press "W" to have your character stun your opponent for a few seconds.

Super Pull Mode = There will be a set of letters above your character and you need to press those letters before your opponent. If you are faster than your opponent, he will be pulled towards the river.

Sutek's Tomb
Can you unlock the mystery of the ancient tomb?

Instructions
Line up three or more symbols of the same kind in a row or in a column. Swap the two tiles by first clicking on the one you wish to move and then clicking on another tile next to it.

There is a time limit to this game so make sure that you hurry. Everytime you make a combination of tiles, you are given more time.

Pyramids
Pyramid Solitaire, Neopets style, wealth and riches await!

Instructions
Remove all cards from the pyramid by clicking on the a card in the pyramid that is one higher or one lower than the card shown at the top of the pyramid.

If there are no more choices in the pyramid, you may click on the pile of cards next to the target card at the top of the pyramid. You will be given another target card.

The game ends when there are no more legal moves left, or if you have cleared the pyramid.

Qasalan Expellibox
Help send the scarabs out of Qasala.

Instructions
Click on "Start Game" and wait for the Scarab to land on one of the choices.

You can win Neocash, Neopoints and items from it. Your pet could also be given the disease, Reptillioritus, if it lands on the skull. And of course, you could receive nothing at all.

Thoughout my wanderings across the land, I happen to stumble upon these excellent pages. I strongly recommend that you visit them; you'll surely like what you'll find.

The end of this directory? Not really... No. More things shall be added here in time, for the sands are always shifting and the Desert is always changing. Things never truly stay the same.
And before I forget, my owner has something to say...

Directory and Layout by Trisha.

Special thanks to the cool people, Snow and Julienha, for the suggestions and opinions, basically putting up with my never-ending questions about color schemes, layouts and all that.

Also, thanks to Winks for all the help! ^^

Of course, to Venna, for letting me use her petpage for this directory.
[Venna: Yeah, I am brilliant.]

And lastly, but certainly not the very least, thank you, guest, for visiting this petpage.
You are most definitely awesome.
