EXP is Havensake's OOC currency system! (There is no in-character currency; characters offer goods, services, and materials in exchange for others.) It is earned by contributing art, literature, and roleplays to the group. Just about anything you can do for the group will earn you EXP- as long as you remember to submit it! Remember, a member must earn at least 1 EXP in a season to stay in the group!
To see how you can earn EXP, and how to spend it, please refer to the EXP Shop!
EXP is maintained by admins on the Character Cards, but members are allowed to and encouraged to maintain their own personal EXP trackers on whatever platform they'd like. We're only human, so discrepancies may occur!
EXP on the cards can sometimes cause confusion, so let's clear it up a little!
Username: This is your dA username! Easy enough!
Earned: This is where every point of EXP you've earned goes! The exception to this is points you've earned this season, which will remain in the Tribe Cup columns until rollover. Once rollover happens, admins will reduce your Tribe Cup total to 0 for a fresh start, and add that total to your 'Earned' column! EXP gained from bundles, rolls, etc. will go into this column as well, as they do not count towards the Tribe Cup!
Spent: A count of all the EXP you've spent so far in the group!
Current: This is a tally of your 'Earned' + 'Total' collumns, with 'Spent' subtracted from them-- it shows you exactly how much EXP you have left to spend at the moment!
Rolls: This is how many rolls you have left for the season! Everyone starts with 5.
AT/ET/FT/LT/ST/VT/WT/OT: This is where we record where you've put your points for the season! (Explained in the "Tribe Cup" segment below)
Total: This is the total EXP you've gained for the season- so a tally of all the points you've put into the Tribe Cup columns! This is the number that must be above 0 every season to keep you in the group! If you aren't sure if you've earned EXP for a season, check this number! Additionally, after rollover, this is the number you'll refer to when redeeming your rewards! (Explained in the "Tribe Cup" segment below)
[Tribe Cup]
Each season, it is every Tribe's goal to get as much collective EXP as possible! Members help with this by contributing their EXP to a certain Tribe when submitting their literature, RPs, and art. Generally, this will be a Tribe you have a character in- it isn't required, but it helps you out!
If a member does not confirm their points to go to any particular Tribe, it is up to the processing staff member to decide where to put those points- so please make sure you're listing a Tribe!
Each season, it is every Tribe's goal to get as much collective EXP as possible! Having the Tribe(s) you donated your exp to win a high place can bring wonderful prizes.
The rewards are as followed;
1st Place
The Tribe is featured in a First Place Banner in the Discord; Members receive ALL of the following: Rare Equip Voucher; 1 Starstone; 75 EXP
2nd Place
Members receive ALL of the following: Rare Equip Voucher; 1 Starstone; 50 EXP
3rd Place
Members receive ALL of the following: Rare Equip Voucher; 50 EXP
4th Place

5th Place
Members receive ALL of the following: Uncommon Equip Voucher; 25 EXP
6th Place
Members receive ONE of the following: Uncommon Equip Voucher; 25 EXP
7th Place
Members receive ONE of the following: Common Equip Voucher; 25 EXP
You do not need to have a character in a Tribe to contribute your points to that Tribe, however, you do have to have a character in that Tribe to reap the rewards from their placement.
Side Note: Members may only claim ONE prize per season, regardless of the number of Tribes they are in. It is the member's choice which prize to claim, but they must have contributed EXP to the Tribe that season.
Scenario 1. I contribute points to FT, and they get first place that season. I don't have a FT cat. I cannot claim the FT prize.
Scenario 2. I contribute points to FT and ET, and I have cats in both Fire and Earth Tribe, which place first and second respectively. I can claim the first OR second place prize, but I cannot claim both.
Scenario 3. I have a FT cat, but only contribute points to ET. FT gets first place that season. I cannot claim the FT prize.
[Individual Rewards]
Contributing to your Tribe's overall well-being isn't the only reward for your hard work! Each season, members will be rewarded individually for their EXP gains and contributions based on a different set of tiers.
They are as follows:
- 25 EXP (3 materials)
- 50 EXP (1 refined material)
- 75 EXP (1 refined material)
- 100 EXP (1 legendary shard)
- 150 EXP (1 refined material)
- 200 EXP (1 piece of common equipment OR 3 materials)
- 250 EXP (1 starstone)
- 300 EXP (1 legendary shard OR 1 common pet)
- 350 EXP (3 common materials)
- 400 EXP (1 piece of uncommon equipment OR 3 materials and 1 refined material)
- 450 EXP (1 refined material)
- 500 EXP (1 legendary shard OR 1 uncommon pet)
- 550 EXP (1 starstone)
- 600 EXP (1 piece of rare equipment OR 3 materials and 3 refined materials)
- 650 EXP (1 refined material)
- 700 EXP (1 legendary shard)
- 750 EXP (3 common materials)
- 800 EXP (1 starstone)
- 850 EXP (3 common materials)
- 900 EXP (1 piece of rare equipment OR 3 materials and 3 refined materials)
- 950 EXP (1 legendary shard OR 1 rare pet)
- 1000 EXP (1 piece of legendary equipment)
These tiers do stack as they go, so no need to just pick one! If you meet a tier, you get that reward and every one below it.
At the beginning of the following season, once notes are open again, an admin will tell everyone their placements and total EXP for the season. At this point, please note the group with the rewards you've earned and which materials/equipment/etc you'd like!
Additionally, these rewards do not end at 1000 exp- they repeat! For example, earning 1400 exp in one season would yield you every reward from 25-1000 once, and then the ones from 25-400 again! These stack into infinity, basically, so you’re always earning rewards!
Here’s a handy sheet from 0-5000 EXP to show what you earn with each tier!:

[Tribe Cup FAQ]
[Q: How are Prizes/Rewards Claimed?]
A: You must note in your Tiered rewards at the beginning of the following season in order to get them. Because of their variability and number of individual rewards, they cannot be automatically added to your inventory. You're free to contact us if something has been or hasn't been added by mistake by noting the group or hitting us up in the Help and Support channel on discord!
[Q: X Tribe has SOOO MANY CATS- How is this fair?]
A: We do our best to keep the tribes as close to one another in population. While a tribe might have a few more cats, it should not be enough to affect Tribe Cup performance. Our goal is to make the Tribe Cup as fair as possible! Have an issue? Note us! We want to improve this system to the best of our ability.
[Q: Can I Offer a Reward to the Tribe Cup Winning Tribe?]
A: Members who wish to gift materials or other in-game items to the members of a winning Tribe should gift them as normal via the trading system. Art rewards are also permitted- however, no member-provided reward will be added to the official list of prizes handed out during the season, and are done at the member's discretion.
[Q: How can you tell if X Participated?]
A: We keep track of participation on an internal spreadsheet. A list of those who have earned the prize will be listed at the end results for every Tribe Cup. We know- but, we aren't perfect. If you feel a mistake has been made feel free to note us or hit us up in Help and Support on discord. We're humans, you know.
[Q: What Tribes Can I Give EXP to?]
A: You may give points to any tribe you like! Just keep in mind, contributing points to a Tribe you don’t have characters in doesn’t mean you get to claim rewards from their placement- you’re just helping them win for fun!
[Q: Do Loners/Exiles participate in the Tribe Cup?]
A: Contributions made by your loner characters can go to whichever Tribe you want! Loners and other-Tribers can participate in a Tribe’s Tribe Cup event with permission from that admin, but they will not gain rewards from that event unless they are a part of that Tribe. Alternatively, you can put these points into "OT," or "Outside Tribes," which affects loners/wanderers/exiles collectively.
[Q: How long do I have to claim my rewards?]
A: Rewards for one season can be claimed through the entirety of the next- after that, they expire. For example, if you earned 600 exp in Spring 107, you would have until the end of Summer 107 to claim your rewards. If they're not done by then, the claim won't be accepted!
