Welcome, stranger!

Somewhere past the last good search engine there is a world called the Geoglades, and something in it is about to hatch.

Faux Paws is a creature-collecting virtual world built in the spirit of the web we grew up on — the one with tiled backgrounds, guild pages held together by hand-written HTML, and a newspaper written entirely by twelve-year-olds.

Every Fauxling is generated from a real trait genome, so no two are alike and breeding is genuinely unpredictable. Raise them, train them, argue with people about them in a forum. The usual.

The gates open soon.

What’s waiting inside

  • 🧬Real genetics
    Species, palette, pattern, morphology, temperament — plus recessives you won’t see coming.
  • 🏰Player-run guilds
    Skinnable home pages, custom ranks, shared banks, and a house-points season.
  • 🗺A hand-drawn map
    Shops, minigames and secrets pinned to real places. Some need a Fauxling that flies.
  • 💰An actual economy
    Earn Glimmers, run a shop, watch prices move, get fleeced at auction.
  • 📰The Daily Din
    A community newspaper, styled like a crinkly old broadsheet, written by you.
  • 🎨A creative sandbox
    Custom creature and guild pages. The rightful heir to the petpage.
