Hi, I’m Maple (she/her) and I’m a Talent Experience Manager (TXM) on Santae. I applied to join the Santae Team in 2025 because I love the community and site vision. My full-time gig is in corporate HR/Learning & Development and I have 7+ years experience in onboarding, professional/leadership development, and management. I’m hoping to use my expertise to be a helpful and valuable member of the team!
A little about my personal life: I’ve been playing video games and virtual pet sites since I can remember, but aside from that, I live with my wonderful fiancé and two cats (Fancy Pants and Squeaks)! We are both into fitness, travel and finding new foods to try. I’m also a huge fan of anything romance (manga, manhwa, anime… reality TV), so feel free to throw me some recommendations!
I’m looking forward to chatting with all of you. 💜
Hi! I'm Jitterbug. :)
I have been around since the start of alpha.
I'm a huge fan of Dragons and cooking borscht.
Lover of all Fantasy Worlds, wishing I could escape reality
sometimes to these worlds but hey, Santae does the trick! ;v;
If you want a good borscht recipe, one that Babushka will be very proud of,
Shoot me a message to get to know me (and make some borscht!)
My name is Luti and it is a pleasure to be able to assist any and all who might need it!
I’m very busy tending to my clients during the week, but every spare moment I can I will be dedicated to making a Santae and welcoming and safe space! ❤️ Don’t be afraid to reach out if you have questions or need help, I am always happy to do what I can!
Hi there, I'm Tea! I am a tea loving English lady who lives by the sea. I have adored VP sites, and also general gaming, since I was a kid. I have a few of my own now and they are budding little gamers in the making themselves.
I have a
Samoyed called Okami and often we are down the beach. Ask me about her and you will get an essay on her and a million and one photos.
I am always willing to help with any questions you guys have and I am always happy to chat!

Hey there! I'm Frysia. I’m a dedicated virtual pet enthusiast and a proud cat parent to two wonderful kitties and a friendly family dog. When I'm not moderating or exploring our community, you can find me indulging in video games or perfecting my skincare routine.
I absolutely adore the pipsqueaks on the site and have a soft spot for anything cute and small. My DMs on Discord and messages on here are always open, so feel free to reach out if you have questions or just want to chat!
Looking forward to connecting with all of you!
Hello, you lovely Santarians! My name is Melissa, but you can call me Mel, or Bumblebee, take your pick. I've been on pet sites since the alpha phase of Neopets, in 1999. I remember it was like a birthday gift lol.
I'm an older player, who has a thing for bees and cheese, and will collect hoard everything remotely related to them. I also love all things related to science, math, medicine, horses, and gardening. I'm a wee bit of an eclectic person, and I love meeting new friends!
My DM's are always open, and I would love to get to know each of you! I wish you each a wonderfully exciting Santae adventure!
Howdy, I'm Wolf (he/they)! I've been playing petsites since the early 2000s and I'm thrilled to be working as a moderator here on Santae!
When I'm not messing around on Santae or chatting in the Discord server, you can find me playing Pokémon, drawing, or hanging out with my beloved partner
Kozmotis. My other interests branch from Warrior cats to Persona to nomenclature, so feel free to strike up a convo about anything and I'm sure we can find some shared ground. :3
Hi there, my name's amphy! It's lovely to meet you. <3
I'm a girl in my 30s who spent most of my life in NYC, lived in South Africa and Australia for a bit later in life, and now currently live in the UK! I grew up with Neopets in the late 1990s and have a big fondness for similar sites. I adore Pippim, cute things, pastels, sushi, boba, matcha, Sanrio (especially Cinnamoroll!), and cats. One day I will have a cute pink or white aesthetic gaming room with all of my favorite merchandise proudly on display, and I can't wait for that day.
Nowadays, you can spot me spending a lot of time on Santae, playing games on my PC, ROG Ally, or Nintendo Switch, or making my own matcha lattes at home. I also love drawing on my iPad!
Please let me know if you have any questions about anything here and have a great time on Santae

Hey there! My name is Gemini, but you can call me Gem (she/her). As a millennial, I've been on various virtual petsites since the OG Neopets days. I'm so happy one of my best friends (who I met many years ago on a petsite) invited me to join Santae.❤ I'm a mom in my late 30s, balancing full-time work while pursuing a degree in clinical psychology with dreams of becoming a therapist when I grow up (whenever that is, lol). My lifelong passion for psychology and mental health keeps me inspired, and I love helping others on their journey.
When I’m not working, studying, or on Santae, you’ll probably find me journaling, binging Netflix, or playing video games with my son,
LucidDemon. I’m also an enthusiastic collector of pens and stickers (because you can never have too many!), and I love adding color to my journals and planners. Spreading positivity is my thing, so if you ever need some good vibes, a fun chat, or even some assistance with Santae, my DMs (onsite and on Discord) are always open!
Hi, I’m Mandie (she/her)! :)
I am a full-time graphic designer who works from home based in Ohio; this might be why you will see me lurking in the chats most of the time! I have been attracted to pet sites ever since childhood, and when I found Santae during Early-Access Beta, I fell in love with both the site and the wonderful community that we’ve grown. I am excited to be a part of the future of Santae!
Please never hesitate to reach out if you need something! <3
Hi everyone! I’m Mimiru, though I usually go by Mimi! I’m excited to be a part of the Santae team where I look forward to helping out such a wonderful community! I’ve worked in virtual game management off and on for over a decade primarily on a long lasting pixel mmorpg.
Outside of Santae I work a full time job in analytics while also being a mom. I enjoy spending time with my family and appreciating life as it comes and goes. I enjoy a wide variety of video games, anime, books, and movies. I’ve played virtual pet sites and mmorpgs most of my life and have met a lot of wonderful friends along way!
I am always here if you need anything, so never be afraid to reach out via dm on discord or via sanmail!

Hey there! I’m Vizla (she/her/they/them), or you’re welcome to call me Micah too. I’m your friendly neighborhood Community Manager and I’m always happy to hear from you guys. I’m here to help gather your feedback and do all I can to make Santae a friendly and welcoming place for all of us and I look forward to getting to know you all better!
Some general stuff about me, let’s see… I love pet sites and I’ve been on them since I was old enough to sit up at a computer. I love games of all sorts, from tabletop games like Warhammer 40k and Pathfinder to pet sites like Santae, to MMO’s like SWTOR and ESO! Though I’ll be the first to admit that my grinding game is not that strong. XD Offline, I have a lot of hobbies. I find it hard to stick to just one, and I have a lot of fun just figuring new skills out. I also have a partner that I’ve been with for over 10 years, who I adore.
I think that about sums me up! If you want to reach out to talk Santae or chat, please feel free. My DM’s are always open.
Yo! My name is Daisy and I’m your friendly Community Engager. Considering that you're reading this, I think I'm doing an okay job. ;-) Thank you to CJ for offering me this position! On Santae, I enjoy creating unique activities for players to participate in.
I've raised computer-dwelling pets for most of my life, but what I love even more is my real-life pet,
Mildred! She's a fluffy orange cat who is so sweet, patient, silly, docile, and undeniably adorable.
Some of my other
hobbies and interests include baking, cooking, drawing, painting, clay sculpting, photography, dancing, playing guitar, cats, bugs, squirrels, anatomy, electronics, and writing (really long lists with commas).

Howdy friends! I'm Bee, I recently joined the team as a junior item artist after CJ found me through DeviantART. I have spent years drawing item art as commissions, inspired by Webkinz and Strudel Cafe. I'm so excited to finally join a team as big and as exciting as Santae!
Outside of the art work, I work as a full time supervisor at a FedEx warehouse on the graveyard shift. My free time outside of my offline work is usually spent playing League of Legends, indie games, or just watching true crime videos.
I am always open to freelance ideas;
