Totem Reveal: Chapter 5

Uplanders, the time has come. Miles and Gaia are about to embark on their final journey to reveal the last two Totem Life Forms! Get ready to accompany them as they awaken the ancients and unleash life into Upland! 

Chapter 5: Awakening the Ancients: Unleashing Life within Upland

As the Stem Tree's power resonated through the chamber, the dormant totemic life-forms began to materialize before Miles and Gaia. The Dragonfly, Shark, Toucan, Goat, Cheetah, Panda, Wolf, Palm Tree, Python, and Gorilla emerged from their rocky slumber, breathing life into the ancient sanctuary. In a mythical fashion, the swirling TOTEMs unite, their distinct traits intertwining harmoniously. The air crackled with energy as each life-form moved with grace and purpose, animating the chamber with their vibrant presence. The room transformed into a stage for the grandest of performances, a testament to the successful awakening of the totemic beings. With their accomplishment, Miles and Gaia bridged the gap between ancient wisdom and cutting-edge technology, unlocking endless possibilities for the future of Life within Upland!

How to Acquire Totems Recap

Totems are available for purchase through a series of Mystery Pass sales designed exclusively for an exchange to several rarities of Life Forms in each drop. The rarities of each Totem are defined by five unique traits that influence your Totem's behavior, rewards, and more. 

Prior to each sale, the Upland Team will begin manufacturing the specific Totems designated for the upcoming sale, which is when the type (animal or plant) of Life Form will be revealed to you. While these Totems are being manufactured, we will hold a Totem Mystery Pass sale for the chapter, which is the only way to acquire them in the Upland Store. As always, registration will be required 24 hours in advance, and then you must log in on the day of the sale to complete your purchase. The exchange to reveal your Totem will not take place until all the Passes in the Chapter have been distributed and all the Totems from the sale have been fully manufactured. 

The Upland Team will notify you and the entire community when each Totem Pass exchange is enabled. This same process will apply to all the upcoming Totem releases. We'll provide an official announcement for every Totem Release, and as soon as manufacturing for these items begins, we'll unveil the newly added Life Forms that will be up for purchase via the Mystery Pass exchange. 

Chapter 5 Life Forms: Cheetah and Gorilla

In the upcoming weeks, we’ll release the sale announcement for the fifth Totem release, featuring the Cheetah and Gorilla Life Forms. Below is a preview of the Chapter 5 Life Forms that are being manufactured, but remember, the Cheetah and Gorilla you acquire with your Mystery Pass in this next sale will have its unique combination of traits. Don’t forget, it will be your mission to feed and take care of your Totem during the cycle, but not until all Life Forms in this first story have been manufactured.
