In the mood for a surprise?
Tarla can give you a random prize,
Head over to her shop of mystery,
Let the rest become history!

Scour through Terror Mountain,
Towards the left you'll see a magic fountain,
Once you enter the bell will ring,
And now you may get the chance to win a prize fit for a king!

In her shop you'll see many bags,
Some containing crowns and some rags,
However that is what makes it so fun,
You'll probably end up buying more than one!

Close your eyes and get ready to choose,
Try not to get sidetracked and go for a snooze,
It is quite popular this time of year,
As Tarla continues to make everyone cheer!

Nabile the Ixi
by halondrus

She had been living a life on the street
And was forced to steal food in order to eat

Nabile was a crafty little Ixi who
Wandered the Lost Desert as she grew

Until she met Tomos and honed her craft
Since Sakhmet merchants were quite daft

They ran from the guards and were quite fast
They did not know how long it would have to last

Nabile really just wanted a normal life
One without all this stress and strife

Until she discovered she was actually not normal
In fact this young Ixi was a royal and formal

This allowed her freedom by becoming a bride
To Prince Jazan so she no longer needed to hide

They restored Qasala where they now rule
The curse was broken with not one lingering ghoul

Their love holds strong both for each other and their land
So now Qasala will remain strong amongst the bright sand

Because today Queen Nabile and King Jazan show
For those less fortunate your compassion must grow

Dear Trudy
by weiyannn

Dear Trudy, will you hear my plea? 
I just want to be your friend!
We’ll have so much fun, you’ll see! 
Endless days in the sun we’ll spend. 

All over Neopia we’ll roam,
From Moltara to Shenkuu,
We’ll never want to go home - 
We have a list to go through!

So if you’re feeling lonely,
And need a friend by your side,
My schedule is cleared for you only!
All that’s left is for you to decide. 

We’ll dive to the depths of Maraqua,
And go berry picking in Meridell. 
On Mystery Island we’ll get a spa,
And in Faerieland we’ll find a spell. 

So Trudy, what do you reckon?
Doesn’t a travel buddy sound exciting? 
Let’s not waste another second,
and let’s start packing!

Nabile's Secret
by precious_katuch14

Nobody really noticed her,
An urchin on the streets,
But that suited her well,
Infiltrating the crowd,
Leaving with their purses,
Every day, and every night.

Ixi of pink, Nabile is her name,
Stealing and sneaking is her game.

She hangs out with Tomos,
Enjoying their carefree life,
Caught up with the Desert Scarabs,
Racing away from palace guards,
Expecting nothing more,
Till that fateful day which
Led her to those fateful ruins,
Yes, Qasala's fateful ruins.

Run, Nabile! To the chamber,
On whose walls hang a portrait of
Your face, wait, your face?
An Ixi, who looks like you?
Looking like she holds a secret,
Thief you may be, but there's more to
You that you don't even know.

A Limerick for Sinsi on Ixi Day
by i_lovee_icecream

An Ixi named Sinsi,
Beckons you since she,
Runs a game of patterns,
Nine images she turns,
Shapeshifter whimsy.

A game in Meridell,
A land that never fell.
Featuring royal pictures,
Historical fixtures,
Art that compels.

Gauntlets and swords;
Sinsi awards,
Neopoints galore,
For puzzles in store,
To ladies and lords.

A welcoming smile,
A crown that beguiles.
Sinsi is adorned,
And Ixi horned,
In Meridellian styles.

On this Ixi Day,
Take the time to play,
A game of Shapeshifter,
An icon sifter,
In a land of grey.

Tarla & Trudy
by therainbowsheep

I wonder if it's a coincidence
That the two most generous Ixi
Reside on Terror Mountain's peak,
Charitable and carefree!

Trudy and Tarla love the snowy land,
But they rarely stay for long.
Preferring to roam and hand out freebies,
Benevolent nature so strong.

Trudy's story one of unlikely wonder,
A tale quite hard to believe,
On a walk she found a slot machine,
That offered no reprieve!

It is magical in nature,
Progressively the Neopoints grow.
Over time, her bank fills up,
She's got the Account Type to show.

Ultimate Riches for Trudy!
But she'd like to share the wealth.
Now she shares the slots with all,
Wishing prosperity and good health.

Tarla is a little different,
She runs an entire prize warehouse! 
Trying to catch her giveaways,
Is like a game of cat and mouse.

A busy Ixi, she's not always around,
But when she is, it's exciting indeed.
You can win incredible items,
So always follow Tara's lead!

Back home, she owns a store
An intriguing Shop of Mystery.
Buy a random blue bag,
The rest is history.

Both Trudy and Tarla are playful,
There's tricks to their little games.
But ultimately their generosity,
Is their well-known claim to fame!

Tarla’s Shop of Mystery
by maddie_bangz

Way high up on Terror Mountain
There’s a little shop full of treasures
Tarla’s an Ixi that loves surprises
They’re one of life’s simplest pleasures

She wraps up her secret items
She’ll yell at you if you try to peek!
And offer them at a very fair price
They’ll be all you talk about this week

And don’t worry about the prices
There’s nothing that’s too over the top
But make sure you choose your bag wisely
Because once you pick you cannot swap!

Tarla has such a fun time
Packaging up her mysterious bags
She’ll be giddy when you pick one up
We promise there’s definitely no red flags!

So make sure to pay Tarla a visit
And stop by the Shop of Mystery
You might just find that lucky item
That makes this purchase go down in history

Sophie's Stew for Snow
by ayakae

For being the most powerful witch in Neovia
Sophie the Witch certainly did not care much
She just threw her ingredients all willy-nilly
To the ground, out the window, by the hutch…

But she’s got a little friend to help her out
A little Meowclops oddly named… Snow?
And helping out really just means devouring
Whatever’s left of what Sophie throws

Whenever Sophie throws a Pile of Dung
My, oh my, does Snow the Meowclops gag
She’d rather have Magic Ghost Marshmallows
They’re so yummy, they make her tail wag!

The Mau Codestones aren’t special, either
They’re just huge chunks of rock with no taste
And the Tongue Wrap? Hard pass on that
The taste of those things make Snow faint!

The Red Scorchipepper is an interesting one
They’re delicious but make her breath fire
And for some reason the Brain Ice Cream
Makes Snow do the boogie, much to her ire

Those Twirly Fruits and Spooky Doughnuts
A constant stream of those are Snow’s wish
Instead of eating a Blueberry Fish Pop
And unceremoniously turning into a fish

But at the end of the day, Snow loved Sophie
For her, there was nothing she wouldn’t do!
So Snow the Meowclops was always excited
For a riveting game of Sophie’s Stew

Whimsy Ixi
by eleganza_lights

This beautiful creature right from Meridell,
The most famous of them, I will tell. 
Find them in Grey, Plushie and colours so many,
Their stories so bright, just sit, there’s no hurry. 

Tarla is one who is brave and adventurous,
Sitting atop a mountain, she is so generous. 
Giving away items to all those in need,
But certain times of the day does she do her good deed. 

Of course there’s Sophie who lives in the woods,
With her precious Meowclops and magical goods. 
These goods that come of her mysterious cauldron,
Beware of her games where she makes weird concoctions. 

Then there’s Sinsi, the puzzle-loving fiend. 
Winning her avatar is everybody’s dream. 
Noble Ixi like Nabile are brave and compassionate,
For the less wealthy, a just ruler and an advocate.

Let’s not forget Hanso, an egocentric thief. 
Keep your things away, you’ll be relieved. 
And there they are, the most famous of the Ixi,
Neopets so clever and a little bit whimsy.

The Ever Puzzling Sinsi
by 9kas

If you are in search of a puzzle
That probably leaves you confuzzled,
Don’t look any further,
But try out Shapeshifter -
It’s Sinsi’s most recent game hustle!

You find the brown Ixi right there
In Meridell’s charming town square. 
She welcomes you in
With a knowing wide grin. 
So go on, see how well you’ll fare!

It’s really quite simple, you know,
There’s only one ultimate goal:
Flip symbols to win
With shapes you’re given 
Until they’ve turned to the goal symbol!

You focus your attention towards
Shuffling the shapes on the board
Around and around
‘Til all of the crowns
Have finally all turned into swords!

But just when you thought you had beat it
The Ixi laughs at you: “not quite yet!”
“‘Twas just level one,
 Ninety-nine ‘till you’re done!
So come on keep going, there’s no quit!”

And hours and hours soon pass,
Frustration within you amassed,
Still oh-so bamboozled,
Your brain is all scrambled!
Shapeshifter is just too advanced!

The Ixi Who Sells Such Cheerful Chaps
by _brainchild_

In Meridell, an Ixi sells
Some Petpets which are very swell.
Miss Nanci sells some jolly friends
So sure to please you to no end!

She raises them until they're grown,
And perfect for a pet to own!
A Neopet appreciates
One of these critters oh so great.

A Whinny, mini steed, is cute,
Quite loyal, and well-dressed, to boot!
A Vullard, grumpy if not fed,
Is still not someone you should dread.

Dragoyles, hoarding shiny things,
Are sure to make a pet's heart sing.
A Mortog never should be kissed,
But certainly must not be missed!

I thank the Ixi for her time
In raising Petpets so sublime.
I'll buy one for my Neopet.
Go visit if you haven't yet.

Sinsi the Puzzling Ixi
by agedbeauty

When it's Ixi Day
And you look to raise a cheer
Don't forget Sinsi 
(Whose puzzle you may fear)

This darling little Ixi
Is quiet quick and clever,
With so many puzzles
That you may solve today - or never.

Swapping a sword for a helm
Is the goal if you want to win
But Sinsi adds a constraint
That just might make you give in.

If winning is what you seek,
Her shapes may be too tricky
Flipping shapes back and forth
May make make your hopes history!

Perhaps she might give us a hint
Or nay, a strategy
To help us solve the puzzle
And lead us to victory?

But whether we win or lose,
Let's all give applause
To this very clever Ixi
While we put her game on pause!

Icy Ixi Mysteries
by ningkov1

Well known in Neopia's history
Though shrouded in icy mystery 
A shop located high above,
Curated by Tarla with love

"Try your luck," the Ixi smiles
Standing before covered piles
"Something rubbish... or something great!"
An enigma for you awaits

Rows of bags bright and blue
Each containing something new
The thrill of the unknown,
Ready for Neopoints to be blown

First bag decided
The choice hopefully not misguided
Hands numb and freezing,
But excitement increasing

What prize awaits inside?
It's not for you to decide
You open up and see,
A little Fir smiling at you with glee

A new Petpet, hooray!
We'll play every day!
Itching to open another bag
Waiting 90 seconds a drag

Now time for bag number two!
Soon a Pile of Dung comes into view
The smell hits you hard,
This prize ready to discard

Shaking with anticipation
Studying the bags in preparation
Here comes bag number three,
And a pocket of gravel you see...

Later carrying both treasures and junk
So many Neopoints sunk
"Thanks for coming!" the Ixi waves,
Now you feel lost in a daze

Suddenly an idea comes to mind
Maybe there's no need to feel resigned
Perhaps Tarla shows us the journey not destination,
The memories and thrill of the situation

The Ixi Genie
by maculose

An Ixi was deep cleaning in her room,
There was quite the enormous mess.
She was sweeping with a dust pan and broom.
She was almost done, she guessed.

She came across quite the sight.
There was a lamp painted blue.
She rubbed the lamp with all her might,
Not realizing what that would do.

A genie Ixi quickly appeared,
Electric in colour and fur. 
The Ixi then trembled showing some fear,
Her eyes could not be deterred.

“Three wishes are yours,” the genie had said.
“You may make all three of them now.”
The Ixi was shocked and scratched her green head,
And then she raised a brow.

“I wish for my fur to be bright gold,
The brightest in all of the land.
I want to stay young and not grow old.
Boy would that be grand!”

The genie raised his electric hands,
And waived them way up high.
A lightning bolt that was quite grand
Shot fast out of the sky.

It hit the Ixi and her colour had changed.
Her wish had actually come true!
She had no wrinkles and no longer aged.
She could trust the genie, she knew.

“One more wish is all that remains,
What will you wish for?”
She thought of what she could obtain,
Hoping it would not be a bore.

The idea came to her with a flash.
“I wish for you to be free!”
The genie’s chains made a splash,
As they fell to the ground like debris.

The two new friends, smiles so big,
Were proud and happy as can be.
They formed a bond and did a jig,
As they both yelled YIPPEE!!

Sophie, the Ixi Witch
by fivemilliononly

Somewhere in the Haunted Woods
Sophie, the Ixi Witch, lives in her shack
She likes to collect various odd goods
to make magical potions, both white and black

She has a rather harsh personality
due to her troubled past
but she is a good Neopian in reality
with a strong spirit, built to last

Reginald is her older brother
who protected her when things got worse
And Bruno too, who went further
and helped her break the Neovian curse

She lives alone inside brewing potions
with her trusty Meowclops each day
But you might see her outside on special occasions
like this spooky Halloween day
