Mysteries abound in the uncharted forests of Subeta.

A group of explorers that have been traveling the globe, searching for rare herbs for use in magical potions for the Magic Box have stumbled upon an incredible discovery--a beautiful songbird, never before seen.

They have dubbed it the Lain and brought them back with them to share with all of Subeta!

Wooooow! 8D That is absolutely GORGEOUS! Seriously, it is SOOOO beautiful! I mean... Those FEATHERS! THE SHADING! THE DETAILS! Spectacular job, artist. <img src="http://images.subeta.org/smilies/6398_emoticon_grin.gif" border="0" /> <img src="http://images.subeta.org/smilies/6398_emoticon_grin.gif" border="0" /> <img src="http://images.subeta.org/smilies/6398_emoticon_grin.gif" border="0" /> It is /nothing/ like the pteri, you guys, unless you o fishy the fact they're both birds, seriously. All birds are a little similar, but unique, and these are WAY different from the stupid pteri, which is just a bird, while these have amazingly decorated feathers, long, elegant bodies...... Wow, I love these. I have an elixir for one, but I need to think of a name first. :3
Whoever thinks this pet looks even remotely like the Pteri is crazy. xD<br />
The Pteri is plain and stubby, the Lain is elegant, with long feathers and actually looks capable of flight. Just because they are both birds, everyone's like "OMG NEOPETZ COPYER." xDD

Aww, their adorable! I'm happy to have finally another bird on the site. Birds are just fantastic in general. ;3<br />
<br />
I want to see this in Reborn really badly; it'll look like a phoenix! 8D
They look a bit like Chocobos to me. 8D Cuuute. -squishes-

I think they look original. <img src="http://images.subeta.org/smilies/6398_emoticon_smile.gif" border="0" /> It's a bird... all birds look similar in some way.<br />
<br />
GORGEOUS.
Too gorgeous to be anything even close to compared to Neopets....Thats what made me join Subeta anyways, the gorgeousness of their pets....So original. Anyways now I have to go buy that Mystical Donadak Plushie from the cash shop so that I can have more pets^^
Oooh. Pretty Bird. Preeeety bird. Yes. Pretty. <img src="http://images.subeta.org/smilies/6398_emoticon_grin.gif" border="0" />

Whoa. Very pretty.

these are awesome. =D<br />
amazing detail x3
O_O wow... I fail to see any of the comparisons ANYONE is making... Just because its an Avian doesn't make it "just like -insert other site pet here-" <br />
<br />
I mean... people are making a fuss but have your ever looked at the Aerie or Kumos? If you want to whine about being unoriginal then use them XD; because this bird is unlike any other petsite bird... unless your vision impared that is D8;
Ah! They are SO beautiful! <img src="http://images.subeta.org/smilies/6398_emoticon_shocked.gif" border="0" />
the Pteri is much more plain/uninteresting than the Lain. >_><br />
These new pets are AMAZING. thanks for making them. My favorite part is probably the tail feathers.<br />
<br />
PLZ MAEK GLACIER LAIN KTHX

o-0 The Pteri is a prehistoric bird, short, chubby, plain and not very feathery. The Lain is a large songbird with long, decorative feathers. Order than that they are both birds, there is very little to compare.<br />
<br />
The Lain is absolutely gorgeous (: Amazing job.
"It's an obvious comparison. To many it's just an ornate pteri. Sorry. This site is very original and the Lain just wasn't original to me."<br />
<br />
<br />
Agreed, it's wonderful art and all, but I like originality. ;3
Wow, are we complaining again guys? I hope not. I'm scared that a member of the staff may take away the comments. (like a another nameless site did). )=
*wanting
No one was physically comparing Lains to Pteris. We were saying the 2 sites have two birds now. Fester/Lenny-Lain/Pteri. It's an obvious comparison. To many it's just an ornate pteri. Sorry. This site is very original and the Lain just wasn't original to me. I agree with the person that said we should have a spider species.<br />
<br />
Regarding the pet hoarding comment~ I fail to see how want more than 10/15 pets out of 61 species/1775 color combos is hoarding.
Phe, what's that talk about the Pteri?<br />
The Lain reminds me of a phoenix like bird with a short neck. But to be plain honest: <br />
EVERYONE can create a bird character thing! No one owns the copyright for birds<br />
xD<br />
(Btw, I think the Pteri is boring anyway <img src="http://images.subeta.org/smilies/6398_emoticon_raspberry.gif" border="0" />)

Pfft they look nothing like the Petri. I mean, you could always compared anything to something else and find similarities. I mean our planet is so big, diverse and unique we'll always find something like something else. <img src="http://images.subeta.org/smilies/6398_emoticon_wink.gif" border="0" /> <br />
<br />
I think the artist did a fabulous job! It's really beautiful. Now I know what my second pet will be. ^.^
After so many ppl refering to the Petri, I had to go look for myself since I couldn't remeber what they look like off the top of my head, OMG they look nothing alike and if it's the Faerie Petri that makes them think this the only thing that is even remotely similuar is the head feathers which aren't the same at all. In all the years playing neopets I was never tempted to adopt one but the Lain was a must have for me and I am not even a bird person. I am just dying to see this pet (Lain) with it's wings spread I think it will be even more stunning than it is now. Thanks again Illusion (hugs) <img src="http://images.subeta.org/smilies/6398_emoticon_grin.gif" border="0" />
It's so pretty... x.x I want one!

are you guys on something? <img src="http://images.subeta.org/smilies/6398_emoticon_raspberry.gif" border="0" /><br />
this thing looks NOTHING like a Pteri from neopets. <br />
its body shape isn't even close to looking like it or anything else for that matter.<br />
<br />
i love it and i adopted one as soon as i could.<br />
prettypretty <img src="http://images.subeta.org/smilies/6398_emoticon_smile.gif" border="0" />
Anyone comparing this too the Neopets Pteri needs to get their eyes checked.
I can't wait to get a Lain elixir for Featherstripe! I adopted him, from the pound, so he came with the name, and I've been looking for a species that fit him better than the Kanis he was. Nothing against Kanii, but seriously, Featherstripe? Oooh, spectrum Lain...
I LOVE IT!!!<br />
i agree slightly in the fact that it vaguely resemmbles a Pteri but there are also alot of differences.If i had to chose between the two i would pick the Lain hands down!<br />
the pets her are so much more detailed and beautiful.

I don't really agree with Sari,it's that other Petri or something has more of a chicken tail

So pretty! Now, I shall make a avatar & a HA dedicated for this beautiful bird!
User not found:
The artists sure to like random lines and orbs on their pets.<br />
And so do I. This is a great new pet and I wish that I could get the potion to change darkgoddess into one. It would be so cute! =^-^= And quite a change from the theme I have going with my pets. ^-^''<br />
Though I have to ask, must the eyes look so sad/bored? T_T
It wasn't inspired by any Pteri, just to be clear. It was inspired by -real- small birds. There are, really, only so many ways to pose a bird - it's going to unintentionally resemble something.
I agree that it does resemble a Pteri... check out the pose of the Darigan Pteri, or the overall look of the Faerie Pteri (not the new style, the old style). Even the Pteri's new pose resembles the Lain.<br />
<br />
But I don't see how this is a problem. It's still a beautiful pet, and it's still very well-drawn. If it was inspired by another source, who cares?
-twitches- No! not another argument. T_T
It's face just says, "Oh, yeah. You know you wish you were as cool as me right now. Just admit it."
I've been reading this over and I don't really think the Lain looks like a Pteri OR my bird pet idea:<br />

<img src="http://www.subeta.org/images/pets/lain.gif" border="0"><br />
My bird was based loosely off of a bird of paradise, hence the wing placement and larger beak. The Lain has a much smaller beak. My bird has 2 long tail feathers with jewels set in them, the Lain does not have this. There are also many other differences, not to mention the Lain is drawn a million times better than my bird. xD I think it's really beautiful and I got one right away. =D
Excuse me, I meant "faerie" Pteri sorry. x.x<br />
<br />
The peacock-like tail, body shape, beak shape, two front talons, even the head ruffles and antennes, the faerie pteri has it all.<br />
<br />
<br />
I'm not saying this is a bad pet, I really love it, we do need more bird based pets anyways. But this is just too similar to Neo.<br />
<br />
<br />
I agree with Sari. Love the new pet, no way it looks like the Pteri from neo. xD

All the artist are assigned pets, we don't all draw everything. I have nothing to do with any other pet except the Pherret now, so it's not pushing anything back that I did a new pet. :p
And I am definitely still getting one. Poor Rhymer is going through lab testings until the elixirs come out. XD
Also, all birds have basic shapes, all birds of prey have one shape, all songbirds another, etc. Besides, a Pteri has a dinosaur tail. e.e And bad graphics. I'm ashamed you're even comparing the two.<br />
<br />
Also, Artists need inspiration to draw, do you have any idea how hard that is to pull outta your ass sometimes? xD
I honestly don't see how this looks like a pteri at all. I guess it could look like a faerie one if you were really trying to look for a remsemblance, because of the intricate feathers and such, but a pteri really wasn't the first thing that came to mind when I saw this.
If this is a pteri, I'm a porcupine. xD<br />
Oh my. It's a bird. A -gorgeous- bird. The Fester's aren't alone anymore, and I'm a big fan of those, was really hoping for another bird. I'm getting at least one. <img src="http://images.subeta.org/smilies/smiley_xface.gif" border="0" /><br />
And. Pet limit at twenty would be love, and I might even stay on Subeta after the recode for that. <img src="http://images.subeta.org/smilies/smiley_xface.gif" border="0" />

To me, this couldn't look less like a pteri. Unless, of course, it wasn't a bird xD<br />
The only thing I see that is remotely pteri-like is the shape of the head. But unless you want another Fester, I doubt that there's much else you can do to make it look different. realised she just contradicted herself sorry, I'm tired ;-;

Ee, these are gorgeous!<br />

But. I think you artist people should pause with making NEW pets and update all the poor outdated pets and give some of the other new pets new colors. :/ (Like the Mahar, for example.)<br />

But I must get one of these when more colors come out. <img src="http://images.subeta.org/smilies/6398_emoticon_grin.gif" border="0" />
