Dara's Darlings

After several weeks of preparation and minion readying, Daraâ€™s Darlings is now open in Shengui Guoâ€™s floating market! Dara is very particular about his minions, and is much happier to part with them if they really bond to a potential new owner. Visit his boat today to see which minions he has for adoption.

Dara wonâ€™t always have the same minions in stock, and theyâ€™re likely to change each day as he doesnâ€™t like to stress them out by keeping them all in the boat at once for days on end! So make sure to keep checking back each day to see which minions heâ€™s brought with him, or continue bonding with minions that youâ€™ve already met!

Note: Bonding with a minion will make it cheaper in price, as Dara is happier to see his minions go with somebody who has bonded with them. You will need to check back every day until you have bonded fully with the minion or it will forget you!

aslkdgfiwng there's a Doubledragon!! I must have that for my Sips3million pet!!

BoaConstrictor 10/28/15 5:41 pm

How do you people know, it's 50k for a minion? I don't see prices and wasn't told one, when bonding!?

Frenchi 10/28/15 5:39 pm

ok this is a really cute idea and all butâ€¦ my god get a load of this hottie, cut me off a piece of that jeez fans self

Mythology 10/28/15 5:39 pm

@Lantern

ALSO SCREAMING HNNGH WHY DID I WANT TO COLLECT MINIONS.

Amber STAFF 10/28/15 5:38 pm

@Sunflower You donâ€™t necessarily have to bond with all the minions to be able to buy them! You still choose one to bond with, and if itâ€™s not one of the special ones Dara mentions, then you can buy it for 50k or bond with it over a few days to get a lower price. :)

Children see them 'til they grow
Then by cat-bus they can't go
I don't want to grow up, no

I don't want to grow up never knowing Totoro
I wanna wanna wanna ride the cat-bus

Hosui 10/28/15 5:37 pm

Cute idea with cute minions!

MrCool 10/28/15 5:36 pm

I am so going to bond with those cuties!

Kellijuana 10/28/15 5:35 pm

LOL looks like I need a thesaurus. :/

Kellijuana 10/28/15 5:35 pm

Adorable! ^_^ I'll be checking on this adorableness every. day. <3 Thanks for another fun idea staff. C:

HeadPhonz 10/28/15 5:34 pm

Yes!! I was waiting for when he'd open up shop! :D

Song_745 10/28/15 5:32 pm

YAY! Started bonding with

because it's irresistibly adorable!

Amon 10/28/15 5:32 pm

I was able to take home a Kaefox and a Lunar Rabbit for 50k but the Xingyun demands some more bonding. Interesting. :D

Muerte 10/28/15 5:31 pm

THIS IS SO CUTE. Waits for the minions I want

Sunflower 10/28/15 5:31 pm

@Amber If it's supposed to be 24 hours, how are people already buying them?

Nefarian 10/28/15 5:31 pm

Aww They're so cute! I love the Baihu!

Seoni 10/28/15 5:30 pm

Been waiting for this handsome fellow since the map was revealed! The minions are adorable

Hoshi 10/28/15 5:29 pm

Love the system here, both creative and realistic.

Zay 10/28/15 5:29 pm

and by that I mean I bonded with the Lunar Rabbit today, I bought the Lunar Rabbit today, now I can suddenly bond with another minion without having to wait a day.

Zay 10/28/15 5:26 pm

Quick question... should I be able to bond with another familiar in the same day after I bought one because apparently I can?
Is that how it's supposed to work?

"You are bonding with a minion!
Xingyun
This minion still looks afraid of you. Come back in about 24 hours to bond with it more."

MeowMeow 10/28/15 5:26 pm

Yay, new minions!

America 10/28/15 5:25 pm

This is adorable :)

Amon 10/28/15 5:24 pm

Beautiful minions! ^^~
Love the idea of the bonding thing, very cute!

Ringo 10/28/15 5:19 pm

So cute!

TaintedTamer 10/28/15 5:18 pm

Awww, lookit the babies! Yay for new minions! :D

Sunflower 10/28/15 5:18 pm

@Amber thank you so much!!!! There are multiple amazing references/mythological creatures that fit perfectly with the themes I've been working towards on my pets (and to this point had no actual reference point on the site).

I can't wait to grab some of these!

Ritual 10/28/15 5:17 pm

I really like this idea!

HYPEBEAST 10/28/15 5:16 pm

The bonding thing sounds sooo familiar.

Hellbent 10/28/15 5:15 pm

I kinda feel like an achievement should be attached to fully bonding to a minion. IDK this is just too cool :)

DreamsInPink 10/28/15 5:15 pm

So, we are all seeing different minions today?

meeper 10/28/15 5:10 pm

AHHHHH, the Totara!
And the Baihu!
WANNTTTTTTTT~ â™¥

homestuck 10/28/15 5:09 pm

aww :3

PetraKore 10/28/15 5:09 pm

This is super cool! Kind of a hard way to get minions, but I feel like it's more rewarding, then.

BoaConstrictor 10/28/15 5:08 pm

So what is the price - going to be? Doesn't give any info now. I don't want to end up bonded but with an unreasonable price?!?

Kai 10/28/15 5:08 pm

Hello gorgeous!! Oh, I like him a lot...
The minions are nifty too, of course.

Hamda 10/28/15 5:08 pm

I love the concept but 50K is really affordable, now if it was 5 mil or 50 mil I would put more effort into bonding with the minion I want.

I'm so glad there is no dislike button in the comment section :heart:

Zay 10/28/15 5:08 pm

I've bonded with the Lunar Rabbit and now have
"You are bonding with a minion!

You can take this minion home today for 50,000 sP. Or you can come back in about 24 hours to bond with it more."

Didn't know after 1 time of bonding I could buy it already lol
Wasn't sure if I should buy or not, but I did. What a cutie <3

Hellbent 10/28/15 5:06 pm

Ooooh! This is a really cool concept! I'm bonding with the kaefox :)

Salmonking 10/28/15 5:06 pm

This is such a neat concept -- I'm psyched! I can't wait to be torn between bonding with ALL the minions :D

Evy 10/28/15 5:06 pm

Got it, thank you for explaining!
But if you bond with another before the first one is fully bonded (lol), you lose all progress, right?

youngexplorer 10/28/15 5:04 pm

I love the bonding idea. Right now Lunar Rabbit and I are getting acquainted.

JESSYTA 10/28/15 5:03 pm

Minion bonding.. Familiar bonding... Hmm.

ShayBaby 10/28/15 5:03 pm

Miniooooonssss. Yey!

Amber STAFF 10/28/15 5:02 pm

@Evy The minion you are bonding with won't move from the top! For example, I'm bonding with Lunar Rabbit right now. Tomorrow, there will be three new minions but my Lunar Rabbit will be at the top still for me to bond with more. :) That way in say two days, I like another minion more I can replace the Lunar Rabbit if I want to!

EmCee 10/28/15 5:01 pm

I absolutely love the NPC's design. You never fail to impress me with your inclusive designs and representations of other races.
Looking forward to this feature when I spot the ~*perfect*~ minion!!

nier 10/28/15 5:01 pm

*BOND
not bone good lord

grace 10/28/15 5:01 pm

@soldier it does not
@Evy the one you're bonding with will stick around :)

nier 10/28/15 5:01 pm

@Evy
i assume it means that you can only bone with one at a time

Slerian 10/28/15 5:01 pm

OMG such an interesting mechanic! So hard to decide, I'll end up waiting for a loooot of minions to come back since you can only bond with one

Inknote 10/28/15 5:01 pm

How neat!
