Icia reaches behind her and picks up a coat in her teeth. She then hands it to you. Once her mouth is free she speaks, "You'll need that where we're going. Follow me!" She bounds into the gate; white powdery 'stuff' flies out toward you. Once through the gate you feel something wet and cold connect with your shoulder. Icia is standing in a snowpile with an innocent look on her face. Her wings are half open as if she plans on escaping if you retaliate. "Sorry, couldn't help it." She grins, "Welcome to the Tundra, where we ice and cold creatures hang out. Have fun, enjoy a snowball fight or two. I'll be around if you need any help." The ice tigress bounds over another snowpile and is gone.

A large Wyrm crawls up to you, her golden horns, fin and belly plates sparkle from the reflecting light off the snow. Greetings newcomer. I am Naviin. I was adopted at one of the Neopet adoptions. The great creature winds her way around you. Her full length is about the same as a car. So far all of us were adopted at different egg or animal adoptions. Even the mischievious Icia. She winks and then slides off.

A small what appears to be a wolf trots up to you and barks. Hi! I'm a mini ice fire lupe! My name is IceHowl! Her tail wags rapidly as you scratch her gently on the head. (click on the picture if you want oen of your own). My brother lives in the desert, tell him I said hi! The lupe then trots off.

Hello a soft voice calls from behind you. You turn around and see a fox-like creature. His body is covered in ice-blue scales with patches of white fure. His thick tail is covered in white feathers and his fangs are the color of new fallen snow. Pale silver eyes regard you, My name is Saul he then slunk off.

As soon as Saul left you feel another moist snowball strike your back. Turning around you see a dragon and a wolf chasing each other, heading right for you. They skid to a stop before plowing into you. Sorry about that the white wolf said, her yellow eyes are apologetic. My name is Tundra, and this is Rainier. The light blue dragon stepped up and beamed, I'm named after a mountain! He has dark blue stripes and dark blue eyes. His feet start out dark blue and gradually fade to the light blue of his body. Large light blue wings are gently folded on his back. I was adopted along with Thalina, a hatch-mate. Lahrea was with her, but after... after my egg was kicked by another participate, I had no one else to go to. She seemed so nice, so I asked her to take me. Cold seemed to radiate from the dragon, a definate sign not to touch this little guy. Nice to meet you Tundra said as she playfully nipped Rainier and the two took off again.

As you walk further, you notice that it is quiet. Too quiet. However, before you could duck your foot sunk into a deep snowpile. Thwap! Yet another snowball in the back. Glaring around at who this could be, a beautiful snow leopard trots up to you. I'm sorry, I couldn't help it. She moves so that you can use her shoulder to hoist yourself out of the very deep hole that you suspect she had dug. My name is Pam, the leopard grinned mischieviously, My elements are snow and luck. Which she needs a lot of. Icia says as she pads behind you. Her stripes are almost hidden underneath a layer of snow. I'll be back to get you for that Pam. The tigress growls playfully at the more slender feline. The snow leopard bobs her head to you and trots off.

Well, that's everyone. Ready to go? You nod and climb on as she jumps back through the gate returning you to the den.
