Grave Danger

 

Neopets Banner - Grave Danger

What is Grave Danger?
On November 8th, 2013 Neopets released Grave Danger. Grave Danger is a daily where you can chose a petpet to enter the catacombs in hopes of uncovering treasure. Be careful, however, as your petpet may end up stuck in the catacombs for hours on end. There is also an NC items feature to this daily that you can find information on below: NC Items.
 
Since this is a site feature that gives out neopoint rewards and prizes, you may not visit the catacombs on your side accounts. For more information look at our side accounts guide.



Choose A Petpet Wisely
Since your pet is off adventuring in the catacombs, you cannot take it to the Petpet Laboratory or remove the petpet from your pet.  Also, the pet that the petpet is attached to will also be unable to trade or be abandoned at the pound.
 



Your Petpet Is Safe
TNT has stated in their editorial that no harm will come to your petpet if you choose to send it on an adventure through the graveyard. All petpets will eventually return.
 

So, we have a new daily and it's one aimed at Petpets! That's totally awesome, but I have a question. The news for it seemed to imply that Petpets might not come back, which we've seen before (like the Petpet Lab Ray and Turmy). This is obviously a bit of a concern for Neopians who either have expensive Petpets or, like me, super old ones with no intention of ever detaching them. Is that really the case? Can you lose your Petpet going in the catacombs? Thanks for answering. ~kristykimmy

You can rest assured that your Petpets will eventually wander back, once they've danced with Ghost Meepits, chewed on cultists' robes, or any other crazy adventure they experienced down there. :)

Question #8,998, archived from Editorial Issue 620 · Published 2013-11-08


Put Your Petpet in Grave Danger
All you have to do is chose which petpet to put in Grave Danger.

Grave Danger

The catacombs below Neovia are full of treasure, with the danger to match! The chance of being cursed is currently at 93.7%. Savvy adventurers are advised to train Petpets to seek out glorious riches in their stead. Everyone knows that Neopet curses don't work on Petpets. Pfft.
 

It is a good thing Petpets long for adventure. Choose one of yours to send into Grave Danger all by itself, where it will face cultists, monsters, and all manner of unspeakable creepiness. Hope it's feeling brave!

Once you click on a pet, there will be a blue box around it.
 



The equipment is for the NC Mall portion of this daily. You do not need to use the NC Mall item to participate in this event. Here you can find more info on the NC Mall part of this daily.



Inside the Catacombs
Just like the Catacombs when your pet was there, your petpet can be stuck exploring the catacombs for hours at a time.

You open the door and send your Petpet marching bravely down the stairs into the catacombs. Adventure awaits! You did remind your Petpet to bring back some treasure, didn't you?

The status your pet has is simply a comment on what your pet is doing, even refering to the Spooky Food Eating Contest catacombs step. This status changes every 10 minutes and does not actually cause any harm to your petpet.

Petpet Status
Ate a Grumblebug. Batted around an old ring with a triangular symbol.

Dancing to some sweet jazz music with a friendly cultist Dug up some bones and played with them for a bit.
Exploring an empty corridor Followed its nose to the scent of cinnamon rolls.
Fought a cult dedicated to the destruction of Neopia... then made friends and went out for cupcakes. Found a peanut.
Found a treasure room! Wandered away without taking anything. Found an old shoe! Grrr... Rawr!
Got eaten by a Gelatinous Non-Cube... and was spit back out. Got covered in slime... Ew. That's going to take a good scrubbing.
Got stepped on at a cultist dance party. Had a staring contest with its doppleganger.
Had a sneezing competition with a dragon. Invited to be mascot of a cult. Declined the offer.
Located some bacon. Mmm, catacombs bacon. Made friends with a pile of Spyders and played Chase the Vernax.
Making friends with a giant Globilol. Nearly got eaten by a Gelatinous Non-Cube.
Observing a banjo duel with some interest. Played tag with a Psimouse.
Ran away from a hungry zombie. Rolled in a heap of discarded dung cream sandwiches.

Stepped in a glowing ghostly residue. Tried on some mummy bandages.
Walking backward with a pair of mummies Wandered away without taking anything.

 


If you go to your pets lookup or others, you will know that the petpet attached is in Grave Danger.
 



Finding Treasure
After your petpet is finished exploring the catacombs, it will come up with treasure.

 

Grave Danger

The catacombs below Neovia are full of treasure, with the danger to match! The chance of being cursed is currently at 93.7%. Savvy adventurers are advised to train Petpets to seek out glorious riches in their stead. Everyone knows that Neopet curses don't work on Petpets. Pfft.
 


Is it...? It is! Your Petpet has returned from the depths of the catacombs, unscathed by foul curses but covered in cobwebs and slime. There's treasure!
