| Four basic codestones. | |
A codestone is a rock, carved with a specific rune. They are used to pay for a Neopet's training courses at the training schools in Mystery Island.
There are two types of codestone. There is the original type, which bare the runes Bri, Eo, Har, Lu, Main, Mau, Orn, Tai-kai, Vo or Zei, and the more recent design of red codestone, baring the runes Cui, Kew, Mag, Sho, Vux or Zed.
The original codestones are found either by Random Event or as the prize in certain games (Tombola, Fruit Machine), but can be bought and sold in user-owned shops. The red codestones can also be bought and sold in user-owned shops, and are made at the Mystery Island volcano from basic codestones.
History
When they first arrived on Neopia, it was as part of the Arrival of Virtupets plot, where they were used to decode Dr Sloth's letter. Users were implored to bring one million codestones to Kauvara so she could unencrypt the message. Now, though, they can be used at the Techo Master's Training School on Mystery Island.
The red codestones arrived after the Mystery Island Volcano plot. By combining normal codestones in the Mystery Island Volcano, you can receive special red codestones in return. These are used for training at the Secret Ninja Training School.
Codebreakers
In the game Codebreakers, the original codestones were shown in multiple colours, in addition to the traditional sandy colour. This is the only occasion where this is the case.
