- Group Info
- Tokotas
- Activities
Below is our best attempt at explaining what tokotas are and what awesomeness you can get up to with them! Tokotas is a large and active group with lots to do, so we recommend you read this journal in chunks rather than trying to get through it all at once for best results.
First of all, what are these things?
Tokotas are giant mammals similar to bear-dog hybrids. They're rideable and come in lots of different shapes and colors. They can be used for in-game events like activities, breeding, and shows, or kept as a personal OC, or both!
Tokotas are not free to create; you must purchase, win, breed, or be gifted one in-game.
Our number one priority is to make Tokotas as inclusive as possible, as well as being fun for all members! There are ZERO minimum activity rules (you will not be kicked out for being inactive), ZERO reference rules, and ZERO reclaim rules and everyone is allowed to join and participate - no matter your language, age, or artistic / writing level! To officially join the group, you will need to have been a member of dA for at least one full month, and have some art or literature uploaded in your gallery. You can still get your first Tokota without becoming a member, and you do not need a Tokota in order to join!
To go into more detail on what tokotas are, check out the Species Information journal, otherwise read on to learn how to get one!
How do I get one?
There are lots of ways to get a Tokota! You can claim one for free as a brand new member at the Adoption Center , or trade with other members using art, DeviantArt points, USD, or other currencies!
Remember that Tokotas are NOT free to create and you must get an official tokota from the group or a member, not make one yourself.
Ways to get a tokota
- Adoption Center - The easiest way to get a Tokota as a new member is through the Adoption Center ! Here you can place a claim on an un-designed tokota and, if you win it, design it to your liking and get it accepted into the group. It's completely free to anyone who doesn't own anything tokotas related, but the whole process can take several weeks.
- Purchase From Member - If you're interested in a faster turnaround you can purchase tokotas directly from other members. This can take one of two forms:
- You can purchase an already-uploaded tokota (you can always change its personality and name to suit your tastes)
- You can purchase an undesigned tokota genotype (like a blueprint for what it will look like) You can find other members selling tokotas in the advertisements folder . There are lots of uploaded tokotas and genotypes available for any currency, and occasionally some are even offered for free to newbies!
- Taming - If you're feeling adventurous you can attempt to tame a wild tokota ! These are released infrequently and lots of members will also be trying to tame them, making it difficult to win, but the tokotas up for taming are generally rarer / more desirable.
- Semi-Custom - Sometimes Tokotas admins will sell semi-customs, allowing you to purchase a custom tokota made to your specifications (within limits). These are not set to any specific release schedule and go quickly, but start at a base price of $10 and can be a good way to get what you want easily.
- Breeding - The most complicated method to get a tokota is through breeding, but it can allow you to try and get your dream tokota (with a little luck). To breed you must find two tokotas (one male, one female) and either buy or be gifted permission to breed them together by their owners. You submit the breeding to the group and in return you'll get a litter full of genotypes for you to keep or sell as you choose. You can learn more about the breeding process here !
Things to keep in mind
- You must have proof of ownership of a genotype in order to have a tokota uploaded by admins, so make sure you hold onto the link that leads to the breeding comment of the genotype!
- It's common practice to complete the Rites of Fertility to earn a tokota's Arms of Akna award (sometimes called AoAs) in return for a slot, but otherwise be sure not to buy slots to a tokota without its AoAs, as this is against group rules.
- Consider taking screenshots after making a deal, sending payment, etc. This will help the group sort the situation out more efficiently if a complication arises!
So what is a genotype?
Your tokota's genotype is the recipe for what it will look like! The particular order of letters tells you what genes the tokota has, and by layering these markings on top of each other you'll end up with a lovely tokota.
To get an idea of what a geno might look like, you can paste the phenotype into the TotemSpirit gallery , where all tokotas are uploaded to. This will bring up examples of how other members have designed similar genos.
For additional genetic resources, try the following links:
- Breeding and Genotypes Guide - Explains genotypes and how to breed for a specific coat or marking.
- Genetics, Mutations, and Reproduction - Explains all the Tokota markings, mane types, and more.
- Design Den Hub - Breaks down the specifics of each marking.
Okay, I've bought a genotype. What now?
If you have an official genotype, the next step is to design it and have it uploaded by admins to the import account, TotemSpirit . Keep in mind that you may not breed or use your Tokota in the group until it is posted by TotemSpirit . Additionally you are not permitted to upload the design to your gallery - if you do you will be required to take it down.
- If you have purchased a genotype and wish to design it yourself, click here to find out how to design your Tokota.
- If you wish to have one of our official Design Den designers design it for you, click here . This is free but may not always be open!
- If Design Den is closed and/or you would like to have another member design it, you are welcome to use the advertisements folder to look for people offering or to ask! Prices differ depending on the artist.
What can I do once my tokota is uploaded?
Congratulations! If you've made it this far, you're now an official tokota owner!
If you're interested in chatting with other members and possibly expanding your pack, you may want to check out the Tokotas skype chat ! Everyone is welcome!
You can also develop an optional handler/rider .
If you have just bought a designed Tokota and would like to change their name, personality, or health status, go to Import & Ownership Changes !
About the Group
There are lots of aspects to the group beyond just owning a tokota.
General Group Information
Group Rules In order to maintain a safe and drama-free environment, the group must operate on a number of rules that are absolutely necessary for you to read before participating. Please take the time to familiarize yourself with them!
Choose a faction! There are currently six factions that exist in the Tokota community, Pack Leaders, Β Prestige Breeders, Lore Keepers, Knowledge Seekers, Wilderness Trackers and Token Brokers. You are not required to pick a faction, but each one has benefits that may help you immensely in the game.
Join a tribe! A tribe is a user-run group, similar to a guild, which has unique themes and goals. It is a great way to make friends within the community! If none of the current tribes strike your fancy, don't worry - anyone is allowed to form their own tribe, as long as tribe formation is listed as open on the front page of the Tokotas group.
Who can I talk to if I'm having problems with someone/something?The group is big and it may look a bit intimidating, but the admins are here to make sure you are satisfied and have an approachable place to go if problems arise. Please send a note to the group and we will respond ASAP! If you are having a problem with an admin, please feel free to send a note directly to Barking-Birds or NorthPaws . All complaints will remain 100% anonymous.

Tokotas has a companion website called Tokotna.com which allows you to store all your items in your bank account, transfer and trade items with other members, view and edit details of your tokotas, craft items and much more. All of these cool features on tokotna allow for instant tokota and item transfers, instant crafting and instant purchases. The Tokotas in-game currency is called "Toko Tokens" or "TT". These can be redeemed for many cool and beneficial items featured in our in-game store The Trading Post which is located on the Tokotna website. Toko Tokens can be earned mainly from redeeming the prey and items gained via activities at the TT Bank. To get started with your own Tokotna account head on over to the Account Management journal and follow the instructions on that journal and the Tokotna.com registration page.
The Hierarchy System The hierarchy system is one of the most important parts of the Tokota ARPG. Every time you draw or write about your tokota you are earning them "hierarchy points" - better known as HP. As your tokota earns more points you will be able to advance them to new statuses, each of which comes with benefits to breeding and more!
No-deadline art/literature activities Tokotas can participate in many ongoing activities, including fishing, hunting, exploring and caving. There is no deadline and these activities will earn your tokota items they can redeem for TT at the bank, as well as crafting items, companions, and more!
Crafting Crafting allows you to create new items out of items found while exploring!
Continuous Events You can enter your tokotas in these events at any time for a chance at great prizes! Additionally there are often lots of member run contests advertised through the group.

do you mean a way to get your first toko?
if so, you can go to the adoption center, if you mean information for newbies, then you're already in the right place ^^

- Adoption CenterΒ - The easiest way to get a tokota as a new member is through theΒ Adoption Center ! (Scroll down in the link to find it). Here you can place a claim on an undesigned tokota and, if you win it, design it to your liking and get it accepted into the group. It's completely free to anyone who doesn't own anything tokotas related, but the whole process can take several weeks.

Hello i wanted to ask what do we need to breed our tokotas and can i breed mine wuth another players tokota?

you should read through here
Breeding Your TokotaOne of the major aspects of the game is breeding your Tokotas, while it may seem a bit complex at first glance, it is actually very simple. Before you begin, if you're new to genetics or want to breed something specific, take a look at this handy guide!
First Step
Locate a breeding pair. If you wish to avoid inbreeding penalties, be careful that they are not immediately related (not related within visible lineage). A tool that you can use to help check for inbreeding is the Lineage Checker. Just copy and paste the two lineages into the appropriate boxes and hit 'check'! These tokotas can be two tokotas of your own, two belonging to others that you have permission to breed, or one of each. You may only breed when both parents have the Arms of Akna badge posted on their award walls. If you are sharing a litter, please work out all deals with the other owner. Make sure there is a

Hello, so I have a potentially dumb question but I must ask.
I've had my tokota since 2015 but I want to make a new account to start fresh with tokota art and stuff.
How can I transfer my tokota to my new account? Will I be able to change my bank account name and other stuff? I also want the new account to remake trackers and journals so things will be more organized.
Can someone help me through this process please?Β

you can change you account information in the bank, and you can transfer all your tokotas though transfers

Hey there! I've already tried out takotas a while ago on my old account "TheShepherdBlue" and had a few Takotas owned, is there a way I can find them again? Or, a place were I can find already designed Takotas for sale? Thank you!

you can go through TotemSpirit gallery to find uploaded tokotas. If you want them transferred, you will need to do so from your original accountΒ

May someone explain Trackers in depth? ^^ Sorry, I can't find any helpful threads to the subject and how to create them.
π: 0 β©: 1
Trackers are literaly just player created places to store information! :3
Much like a video, when you fight monsters and enemies and animals and kill them you can pick up items from the dead. Meat, Armor, Swords, etc.
In a game, it automathically puts these things into your inventory.
Well. Tokotas isn't a fully coded game, so Admin hand roll what items your images end up producing, and after they roll they need a place to put it so that you can use it, save it, or sell it as you wish!
This same concept applies to Hierarchy Points(Aka the experience points of tokotas). In a game when you kill an enemy and gain XP it just adds it straight to your level bars!
Well tokotas isnt coded, so you as the player have to have all of your HP stored in a single location. So that once you get enough to level up, you can submit it for admin to review and allow you to rank!
Theres a variety of ways to create trackers.
HP ones have essentially no limitation. As long as you keep it organized and list out your HP count under each piece, you can make a Journal or a Sta.sh or some players even make outside websites.
Trackers for Activity results however have to be on Deviantart. Since admin have to actually comment with results, so you'd make iether a journal or a sta.sh.
How you set these up can also vary! Some players create there HP trackers per tokota, much like mine as seen here:Β CHRIST || Tracking Sheet
And then create comments in the journal for admin to reply to with activity results for JUTS that tokotas activities.
OR
Some players keep there HP trackers seperate from there activity results. For instance, my example above is just a HP tracker for me.
My activity results are all posted here:Β Kayxer's Tokotas
So either of those methods is acceptable. :3
All in all, you do whatevers easiest for you as long as its easily accessible and organized for when Admin need to get to it! :3
π: 0 β©: 1
Alright- But, How do you get one 'recognized' as a tracking sheet(?) By the game admins. XD I mean. Or are you all psychic?
π: 0 β©: 1
Almost everything in Tokotas generally requires you to fill out a form with specific info when submitting the item. :3
There are journals with more specific/detailed information for each thing, but as a basic example.. Activities are drawn and then submitted to the toko activity page (TokoCenter ).
In the description of your activity image, you'll write out the form needed for it.Β
When you submit a tokota for leveling up, theres a specific journal you comment on with a form filled out.
These forms will ask you for your "trackers" link for whatever that particular field is.
So i guess generally speaking, it doesnt need to be 'recognized'. It doesnt have to be like.. approved or logged under the tokota or anything of that sort.
You just include it in your forms where needed.

Hello? I was gifted with a Takota from a friend. His name was "Silver Sided Bullet" With three layers of timberwolf like markings, just a average Takota who's noted traits were he Pees on things he should not and he was his mother's nightmare of a pup.
My laptop who had the saved data of the link for my Takota's genotype, but it was literally destroyed. I've looked everywhere but cannot seem to find it.
Is there a way I can find or recover my genotype? It has the proof he was given to me. Please help, I feel so blessed to have my Takota especially when it was from a good friend.
I'll love him nonetheless but I have a feeling not having it ready will hurt me in the future when wanting to participate in events.

Hey there! Are you perhaps referring to your Tokota's design .psd? If that were the case, you could ask the previous owner or the designer of your Tokota if they still have the file.
However, if you are just looking for your Tokota's uploaded import, you can find itΒ here . In the future, you can go to TotemSpirit and check the gallery there to see all of the uploaded Tokota imports.
I hope that helps!

Can someone explain the trackers? They seem more complicated that in DracoStryx. You have to link admins to your tracker for more than HP and make specific parts for exploring and stuff?
π: 0 β©: 1
Basically you use a tracker to store HP, but you also use them to store activity rolls (so instead of getting a reply to a comment in the thread like DracoStryx, you get a brand new comment in your tracker for you to keep track of). Trackers are also needed to store contest results, random events etc

Thank you! I saw in the rules that the bare minimum tracker only needs the toko's import, so I feel alot better about not messing up.
