[[Image:Great_Desert1.gif|frame|right|Several Neopets - clockwise from top, a [[Bruce]], and [[Aisha]], a [[Lupe]] and an [[Ixi]]. Also present is a [[Petpet]]. ]]
A '''Neopet''' (from [[wikipedia:Ancient Greek|Ancient Greek]] ''[[wiktionary:νέος|νέος]]'' meaning "new", and "pet") is any one of 54 [[wikipedia:sentience|sentient]], [[wikipedia:sapience|sapient]] species of a virtual animals yet discovered to inhabit the world of [[Neopia]].

Players on the [[Neopets]] website can adopt, raise, and play with these creatures. While different types of Neopets are classified into different species, the Neopet community is not divided amongst species boundaries. They are capable of [[NeoHome|home building]], operating a [[wikipedia:market economy|market economy]] with [[Neopoints|currency]], building and utilising tools and technologies of a range of complexity, and complex social interaction. Neopets enjoy [[art gallery|art]], [[Altador Cup|sports]] and [[battledome|physical competition]], and [[games|play]].

Each user account can have up to four Neopets associated with it. [[Premium]] accounts will be allowed up to [http://customersupport.neopets.com/ics/support/KBAnswer.asp?questionID=14502 five] Neopets when the Premium system is updated sometime this year.

==Biology==
[[Image:127.gif|left|frame|Painting can make aesthetic differences...]]
Neopets are categorised into 54 different species. While the word ''species'' usually defines a group whose members can breed with each other to produce fertile offspring, different species of Neopets have been shown to have families with each other. Neopet species often varies wildly within a biological family (as ''Neovian Genealogy'' notes, "[[Skeith]] plus [[Zafara]] equals... [[Ixi]]?"). Any given Neopet may change into a different species through exposure to certain [[Morphing Potion|potions]], magical [[plushie]]s, or the [[Lab Ray]] while retaining the same essential identity. All species have two sexes.

The form of any given Neopet can change due to what [[colour]] it is painted. These changes can be as small as re-colouring a [[red]] Neopet [[blue]] to drastically changing a Neopet's biology - they may [[faerie (colour)|gain wings]], [[Maraquan|become aquatic]], or even [[robot|forgo organic bodies entirely]]. Except for the [[Grundo]], who can also begin as [[brown]], [[purple]], or [[white]], all Neopets begin coloured [[red]], [[blue]], [[yellow]], or [[green]]. Counterintuitively, Neopets do not begin life coloured as [[baby|babies]].

The primary means of altering a Neopet's colour is at the [[Rainbow Pool]] in [[Neopia Central]] with a [[paint brush]] or through the Lab Ray.

[[Image:Caption 404.gif|right|frame|... or radically alter a Neopet's form.]]Most new Neopets come into existence when a player creates them using the [[Create-a-Pet]] feature. However, some species have been shown to hatch from eggs - the [[Draik]] - or metamorphose from a different creature - a [[Krawk (Petpet)|Krawk]] [[petpet]] into a [[Krawk]] Neopet.

Neopets are vulnerable to a variety of [[disease]]s and some species are allergic to certain foods (for example, [[Kyrii]]s get Itchy Scratchies from anything with apple in it). Other species, by contrast, can eat non-food items, and may even do so spontaneously.

Neopets as owned by players do not die, despite the existence of [[Ghost]] Neopets, and can only be removed from the world if deleted for being given an inappropriate (e.g. profane) name, or if their current owner is [[frozen]].

===Origins===
It is unclear exactly how Neopets evolved. While the [[Tyrannian]] paint [[colour]] shows what seems to be less-evolved versions of Neopets (reminiscent of variously [[wikipedia:caveman|cavemen]], [[wikipedia:sabre-tooth cat|sabre-tooth cat]]s, etc) the [[Neopedia]] article on [[Dr. Frank Sloth]] suggests that Neopets began to come into existence from flashes of light. The presence of [[faerie]]s and faerie magic may explain the existence of Neopets, or they could have been brought to Neopia from other worlds by technologically superior powers. At least one species of Neopet, the [[Grundo]], was brought to Neopia this way.

==Characteristics==
Each individual Neopet has a name. Neopets taken by players have names that are unique amongst all the other Neopets on the website. Each individual also has other statistics that may be viewed by a player through the Quick Ref page - in the case of their own Neopets - or an a Neopet's [[look-up]]. Individuals also have a height, given in [[wikipedia:centimetre|centimetre]]s, and weight, given in [[wikipedia:pounds (weight)|pounds]]. A Neopet's weight can change in response to the foods it is fed.

Neopets can be trained to improve their strength, movement, defence, and hit points. While a Neopet's age is recorded, the main indicator of their experience is their level. Higher levels allow strength, movement, defence, and hit points to be trained to higher degrees. Strength, movement, and defence points can be trained by up to twice the points of a pets level, and hit points up to three times level. These statistics may be increased by [[random events]], [[Coltzan's Shrine]], or the Lab Ray to beyond these restrictions, however further training through the training schools - the [[Mystery Island Training School]], the [[Swashbuckling Academy]], and the [[Secret Ninja Training School]] - will not be possible until the Neopet's level is increased again.

A Neopet's level also effects what [[abilities|faerie and species abilities]] it can learn. These abilities, strength, movement (to a modest extent), defence and hit points come into play in the [[Battledome]]. Having a high level does not itself make a Neopet more powerful - it is only useful insofar as it means their other statistics can be trained higher.

Individuals also have a fishing skill score, which reflects its experience at [[Underwater Fishing]] and what types of fish it is capable of retrieving, and an [[Employment Agency]] rating, featuring their rank and completion statistics.

The intelligence statistic of a pet is influenced primarily by how many [[book]]s it has been read, and can affect which books it will be willing to read in the future.

===Personality===
When a Neopet is created, the owner is asked to describe its nature: what the Neopet most likes to do (e.g. gathering food or making friends) and how they typically react when meeting others (e.g. smile sweetly or run away). These attributes do not have any effect on gameplay. After creation, they could only be seen if the Neopet was [[Pound|put up for adoption]], however when the site was revamped in April 27, 2007, it was shown on the Neopet's look-up as well.

Pets that were created before this date all had their personalities set to gathering food and acting friendly while those that were created after show what their creator chose instead. [[The Neopets Team]] did acknowledge this glitch but have not fixed it yet.

===Likes and dislikes===
Neopets may reject certain items - this may include refusal to eat certain [[food]]s, play with certain [[toy]]s, or adopt certain Petpets. A Neopet's dislikes are based on his or her name. A Neopet will refuse to eat something, saying "Yuck! I'm not eating one of those!", if it has the same number of characters (including spaces) as that Neopet's name - for example, a Neopet called [[Thyassa]] will refuse to eat any food with a name seven characters long, such as a ''Bagguss''. He will eat foods with long or shorter names, however.

This rule also governs what Petpets a Neopet will be willing to own - e.g. Thyassa would not accept a [[Magaral]]. If the Petpet was painted to change its name's length - for example, a [[Pirate]] Magaral - then the Neopet would accept it.

A Neopet will reject a toy to play with if its name is twice as long as their name, but will accept a toy with the name the same length.

One work around for Neopet dislikes is for the player to change the site language. Names of items in foreign languages may be different lengths and therefore not cause the Neopet to reject them. Once the Neopet has accepted the item the language can be changed back.

==Neopet care==
A Neopet's owner can care and provide for their Neopets. As well as [[Neopet Customisation|customising]] them with [[clothes]], accessories, and other paint colours, they can improve or lower their pet's mood through their actions, feed it, and cure it of diseases.

===Mood===
A Neopets mood, being happy or sad, is changed by user actions around the website. There are ten levels of happiness, from least to most happy:

*Depressed
*Very unhappy
*Miserable
*Unhappy
*Content
*Happy
*Cheerful
*Extremely happy
*Joyful
*Delighted!

There are numerous ways to change a Neopets happiness, such as playing with a [[toy]], [[grooming]] them, riding the [[Roo Island Merry Go Round]] or eating a [[Negg|Happy Negg]]. The happiness of the user's active Neopet is shown in a table of statistics on the left of most pages. The happiness of the user's inactive Neopets must be checked on the [[Quick Ref]] page.

If a Neopet happens to be [[Disease|sick]] when checking the Quick Ref page, its happiness will be lowered. It also lowers if the Neopet has had less than full hit points for extended periods of time.

There are three rare [[Random Event]]s that relate to an unhappy Neopet. These change a Neopet's [[colour]] to blue if really sad, or red if angry, or green if sick. If a Neopet is unhappy or sick, they appear sad or sick on the Quick Ref page, the Neopet's look-up, and on the player's user look-up.

===Hunger===
Just like real life creatures, Neopets become hungry over time, and must be fed to become full again. Neopets can be any of the following levels of fullness:

*Dying
*Starving
*Famished
*Very hungry
*Hungry
*Not hungry
*Fine
*Satiated
*Full up
*Very full
*Bloated
*Very bloated

Neopets can be fed any [[food]] item - subject to their likes and dislikes, see above - to reduce their hunger and make them more full. A food item does not always reduce the Neopet's hunger enough to move it to a different hunger rank, however.

If a user does not have enough [[Neopoints]] to buy food for their Neopet - currently under 3,000 NP - they can go to the [[Soup Faerie|soup kitchen]] to feed them instead. Food is often given out by certain [[daily]] activities like the [[Giant Omelette]] and the [[Giant Jelly]]. The [[Healing Springs]] may also make a Neopet bloated.

Grarrls and Skeiths can eat any non-food items, and Jetsam can also eat [[Aquatic Petpet]]s.

Hunger affects whether a Neopet can fight in the [[Battledome]] or not. Being hungry for a long period of time can also reduce a Neopet's mood. While the name of the most desperate hunger level is "dying", a Neopet cannot actually die of hunger.

If the Neopet is hungry, their hunger status shows up in red text. Occasionally, a Neopet may have the rank of "not hungry" appear in red: they must be fed again to make them actually not hungry and allow participation in the Battledome.

===Pet Spotlight===
First started on August 29, 2000, the Pet Spotlight is one of the many competitions run on the Neopets website. Users submit a short story or description (limited to 500 - 2500 words) of their Neopet of choice accompanied by a self-created drawing of the pet. Trophies for the spotlight began to be handed out on October 17, 2000 and are displayed on the pet's lookup.

==Site Spotlight==
The '''Site Spotlight''' was a regular competition on the Neopets website where players could submit petpages that they created on a variety of topics and receive a trophy in return if their submission was selected. Site content ranged anywhere from profiles of their pet to guides for various Neopian-related topics such as [[Faerie]]s, [[Games Room|games]], or [[Morphing Potion|morphing potions]].

The Site Spotlight started on August 29, 2000 and trophies began to be handed out two months later on October 17, 2000. Due to a decline in popularity, the last Site Spotlight was selected on August 12, 2010.

==Trivia==
*A user's Neopet would send its user an e-mail wishing them a happy birthday when the time came after January 27, 2000.
*Level 181 is the minimum level a Neopet must have to receive the rank "Too High to Count".
*Users could rate the look of another user's Neopet via a five star rating from their Neopets Lookup as of September 12, 2007.
*Users were given the option to send photos of their Neopet to another user on September 21, 2007.
*Since site update from [[Neopets 2.0]] and [[Neopet Customisation]], Neopets were unable to show emotions and other battledome poses as they were used to. This changed with an update on December 21, 2007, and a Neopet's facial expressions could show when they are happy, sad, angry, or sick.
*The most popular Neopet is the Shoyru.
*The active pet, when seen on the left-hand module, will occasionally communicate short sentences while the user browses the site. The following 16 phrases, written directly below the pet's image, are rendered as '''(Pet name) says:'''

{|align="center" cellpadding="5" cellspacing="5%"
|-valign="top"
|width="400px"|
*A Tiki Tour sounds good right about now!
*AH! BEHIND YOU! Just kidding!
*Destruct-O-Match sounds like fun right about now.
*Do you think you could buy me a toy? Please?
*How can I show my face in the Battledome like this?
*I think some strength training is in order, don't you?
*Is it time for training yet?
*Know anyone who's up for a fight?!
|width="510px"|
*My puny arms can't even hold an Attack Pea!
*Seen any good concerts lately?
*Today doesn't seem to be a very good day.
*When's the last time we visited the Techo Master?
*Why don't you just paint me grey if you're gonna leave me like this?
* *ho hum*
* *sigh*
* *yawn* Is it nap time, yet?

Grey Faerie

2007-01-19T03:19:10Z

75.26.14.108: /* Colour */

[[Image:Grey Faerie Image.gif|frame|Grey Faerie [[NeoDeck]] image.]]
The '''Grey Faerie''' is a [[Faerie]] in [[Neopia]] which has had her wings removed, destroying all her use in magic. Introduced to [[Neopets (website)|Neopets]] through a [[Neopedia]] article on April 18, 2003, to date there is only one known Grey Faerie (originally named '''Baelia'''), although their may be more in hiding. As told in a the original Neopedia article, Baelia was stripped of her magical powers imprisoned by a [[Dark Faerie]] named [[Jennumara]]. She was freed by [[Tavi]], a mountain climber who tricked the lock of her cage. It is said she would regain her powers when she received a new name.

==Bottled Grey Faerie==
{|align=right
|http://images.neopets.com/items/bottlefaerie_grey.gif
|}
On April 18, 2003 when the Grey Faerie Neopedia was released, an image of a [[Bottled Faerie]] with the Grey Faerie inside was found on the servers, raising speculation about Baelia and a possible plot. This suspicion was raised when [[The Neopets Team]] revealed in a [[Neopian Times]] editorial users would "be hearing more about grey faeries soon", hinting there were many more Grey Faeries.[http://www.neopets.com/newnt/index.phtml?section=editorial&week=90] Since that time, no news about the Grey Faerie has been released, making users wonder if the plot has been abandoned or resceduled.

==Colour==
{|align=left
|http://images.neopets.com/items/greypntbrush.gif
|}
Users have the option of [[Rainbow Pool|colouring]] their [[Neopet]] or [[Petpet]] ''Grey'', which is a design similar to the Grey Faerie released on April 9, 2004. Key traits of the Grey colour include red and baggy eyes, weak body movements and looking sad even when happy. Unlike the Grey Faerie, Neopets or Petpets coloured Grey do not lose their ability to use magic, as made apparent by Neopets use of [[Faerie Abilities]] in the [[Battledome]]. Because Grey is just a colour and just looks sad, a Neopets's mood isn't affected when coloured or if a ''Grey'' Petpet is attached.

Petpets were actually capable of being painted Grey on September 4, 2003, before the current design was ever released. Since the new design, artwork of the Grey Petpet have been updated. Some Petpets are naturally coloured Grey, and don't bear any of the characteristics of the colour. There is also one permanently Grey coloured Petpet called [[Frowny]].

As of December 2006, there are 36 different Neopets and 39 different Petpets which can be painted Grey.

Krawk (Neopet)

2007-01-19T03:17:38Z

75.26.14.108:

''This article is about the Neopet Krawk. If you are looking up the Petpet, see [[Krawk: Petpet]]''

[[Image:Krawk red baby.gif|frame|Red Krawk as of June 19, 2006.]]
The reptilian Krawk is the rarest [[Neopet]] in [[Neopia]]. A little over 2,000 exist in Neopia, due to the unique methods to create one.

The Krawk is the only species in existence that are [[Petpet]] mutations. One day, an owner took his Neopet to the [[Fungus Cave]] on [[Krawk Island]]. The Neopet in question also brought along his Petpet, which was incidentally a [[Krawk]]. When the petpet ate the fungus, it slowly mutated into a full-grown Krawk.

However, when news got out about this, the price of the unpopular Krawk Petpet skyrocketed. As of April 2006 they were worth over 4.5 million [[Neopoint]]s, and the Krawk is one of the most coveted pets on the site. Many consider it a status symbol pet, since a person would need to be either very rich or very lucky to have one.

Classified by scientists as a Neopet and a Petpet, this creature loves mischief and it is a common sight to see a shop keeper chase a Krawk down the street while the Krawk runs away with a string of sausages in its claws laughing gleefully. Also a seasoned fighter, this Neopet's outgoing nature and natural fighting ability make it a prime candidate for [[Battledome]] veterans.

==Trivia==
*As of April 28 2006, there are 2,257 Krawks, placing them in 54th in popularity, making them the winner of the [[Wooden Spoon Award]].
*If a users Krawk Petpet is painted Faerie or any other colour when taken to the Fungus Cave, it will turn into that coloured Krawk Neopet. Source from the editorial of issue 239 of the [[Neopian Times]].
