# Pet system

Pets in Ukiyo provide various buffs depending on their type, level, and tier. They can level up and gain XP when equipped and fed as needed. With the necessary gear, pets can also collect monster drops. Through breeding, pets can advance to a higher tier.

Standard pets and NFT pets exist in the same way as cosmetics. Standard pets are available for purchase in the Ukiyo store, while NFT pets have a limited quantity and may only be obtained through special events or challenges.

Pet breeding allows two pets of the opposite gender to breed, with the possibility of producing a higher-tier offspring.

#### **Token integration**

The pet breeding system incorporates Ukiyo tokens as a key component. Each breeding attempt requires a fee that must be paid using Ukiyo tokens.
