Welcome to the Enchanted Creatures Club!
A 10,000 Ethereum NFT collection made out of the beautiful and endemic creatures that dwell on one of the rarest ecosystems on Earth: The Galapagos Islands. The Enchanted Creatures Club (ECC) is a historic endeavor aimed at using the power of digital assets to make a real world impact by partnering with influential, nonprofit organizations.
The Art Behind the Enchanted Creatures
We teamed up with several talented, young artists who carefully crafted the Enchanted Creatures. Their goal? Original style, global appeal, and flexibility for a long-term, community-driven, transmedia roadmap.

14 creatures endemic to the Galapagos Islands

77 different traits, of varying rarity, per creature

100 ultra rare NFTs with IRL redeemable benefits

10,000 possible outcomes
The Goal: Galapagos’ Reactivation
Galapagos is famous because most of its species cannot be found anywhere else in the world. Great effort is dedicated to protect its delicate ecosystem from global warming, smugglers, illegal fishing, etc.
But, being a tourism-dependent society, COVID-19 has affected its economy pretty harshly. The resources to protect the islands have been limited during the past years.
Our short-term goal is to accelerate the economic re-activation of the Galapagos Islands. We will destine 70% of the NFTs sales -and 70% of our secondary royalties- to initiatives that will help the islands.
Goals #1: Supporting Scientific Research, Conservation, and Education
We want to shape a better future for the Galapagos Islands by upholding the essential work of both national and international, nonprofit organizations working to protect and maintain the Islands. With this goal in mind, we have partnered with the Charles Darwin Foundation, the Scalesia Foundation, and other nonprofit organizations looking to join our project (TBA).
These organizations are committed to: educating, expanding scientific knowledge, providing support and technical assistance, and promoting/ executing conservation efforts on the Galapagos Islands. The profits taken from the ECC will help fund several research projects and we are very proud to support them in the important work that they do (see Profit Breakdown)!

The Galapagos Islands house a natural paradise unlike any other and are world-renowned, among other things, for their unique plant and animal species that cannot be found anywhere else in the world. Consequently, great effort has been taken over the years to keep these delicate Islands safe from a plethora of threats including: global warming, smugglers, illegal fishing, etc.
However, the prosperity of the Galapagos Islands is heavily-dependent on tourism and COVID-19 has severely affected their economy.
Holder Benefits
Each Enchanted Creature includes special, redeemable benefits for its holder.
All Enchanted Creatures come with the ‘Enchanted Pass’
All Enchanted Creatures (holders of an ECC NFT) will have access to exclusive, members-only benefits on the Galapagos Islands, including discounts at top-tier hotels and other exciting perks to be announced in the coming future! *They will also have access to the Enchanted Creatures Club on Decentraland and will be automatically whitelisted for upcoming collections.
Golden Enchanted Creatures include the ´Golden Pass´
If upon minting, your Enchanted Creature has Golden Skin, in addition to the ‘Enchanted Pass’ benefits, you are also the lucky holder of a free four-night stay on the Galapagos Islands! Your stay includes: luxury accomodation+breakfast for 2 at select hotels, daily excursions and yacht tours, and a variety of incredible experiences on the Galapagos Islands. The Golden Pass can only be redeemed once and up to 2 years post-mint (flights not included). There are only 100 Golden Skin NFTs in the entire collection so it truly is the opportunity of a lifetime!
The DAO’s Dream
We are not only ambitious. We are dreamers. This is why our hope is that this project is the first step towards financing the GalaDAO: A Decentralized Autonomous Organization (DAO) with the future of the Galapagos Islands at its core.
Our aim with the GalaDAO is to create an efficient way to solve local problems and incentivize research, education, and conservation. We hope to bring together responsible institutions and the local population to decide, with a governance token, which issues the Galapagos Islands needs to prioritize first.


Roadmap
The ECC is a long-term project so rest assured… The Enchanted Creatures are here to stay. The following roadmap and its various milestones will serve as a preliminary guide for the development of this project and as a foundation for the many initiatives we have planned for the Galapagos Islands.
Hatching Season
ll of our Enchanted Creatures are born from eggs (yes, even the mammals, shh… don’t ask). And, all eggs must eventually hatch… Right?
The Rise of the Golden Creatures
Once all 10K ECC NFTs have been minted, all of the Enchanted Creatures will be revealed. Importantly, this will be the moment of truth to determine, which lucky holders have a Golden Creature and consequently a ‘Golden Pass’. As stated above, these ultra rare NFTs carry the adventure of a lifetime for two! Will it be YOU?
Execution of Conservation Projects
Pending mint completion, alongside our partners we will move to execute our first Goal by upholding research, education, and conservation projects aimed at keeping the Galapagos Islands safe from the many threats they face for generations to come.
Launch of ECC Merch
Those with a keen eye may have spotted certain “details” on our Enchanted Creatures. These represent the exclusive merchandise that our holders will have access to. Handcrafted by local artisans, your merchandise will be an additional part of our second goal: Economic reactivation.
Launch of the Protected Park Club
The official Protected Park Club will launch in the Metaverse. Verified ECC holders will be able to visit the Club, play, and chat with other holders in our own Decentraland Club.
The Holy Grail: GalaDAO
No matter the length of our journey, our ultimate goal will always be the GalaDAO.

United by a common goal and a love for the Galapagos Islands, we present the official team behind the Enchanted Creatures Club. Feel free to contact them on social media or through our Discord.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
TBA: so follow along closely on our Discord/Twitter.
Discord is the only way to make it to the white list and you can check all the information in the “#guide-System” channel.
1️⃣ Make sure you have the required amount of ETH (+ extra for gas fees) in your MetaMask wallet.
2️⃣ Head to our website (https://ecclub.io/) and click on the “Connect” button on the top-right to connect your wallet. Your wallet’s interface should pop up and ask for you to approve the connection. Post-approval you should be able to see part of your public address in place of the word “Connect”.
⛔ Warning: Important! Make sure you always double check to confirm you are on the correct website. Occasionally, scammers copy websites to steal money from users’ wallets.
4️⃣ Head back to our website (https://ecclub.io/) and click “Mint”. Given that the mint will take the form of a Dutch Auction (for a brief overview, watch: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qv6PyljD21s&t=49s&ab_channel=cspotrn/), the price of the mint will be lowered every 20 minutes. When the auction reaches your desired entrance price, you have to select the quantity of NFTs that you want and click “Mint” again.
⚠️ BEFORE YOU DO ANYTHING ELSE:
- DO NOT REFRESH OR REPROCESS YOUR TRANSACTIONS. The ETH network may take a while to process your transaction. Therefore, it’s important not to clog up your wallet with a bunch of attempts because you may end up with nothing but charges for failed transactions or far more transactions than you had originally planned.
- Beware of gas fees. All transactions made on the Ethereum network cost gas and the fees tend to increase if more people are connected.
If you want to check on the status of your transaction you can click on the “Activity” tab in MetaMask. Next, click on the transaction and go to the arrow in the top right corner to access your individual transaction on Etherscan (https://etherscan.io/).
Remember: MetaMask is only an interface. This means that it can take some time to load your ongoing transaction and it’s possible it may not load it at all. Etherscan is a search engine that allows you to obtain all of the information related to any transaction made on the Ethereum network, it’s the real deal.

Our first goal is to support scientific research, education, and conservation through our partners and important nonprofit organizations: the Charles Darwin Foundation (CDF) and the Scalesia Foundation.
These organizations have a profound impact on the protection, management, and maintenance of the unique ecosystems and species that call the Galapagos Islands their home.
The profits taken from the ECC will help fund the following research projects, among others:
- 🌊 https://www.darwinfoundation.org/en/research/projects/sea-turtles 🌊
- 🐦 https://www.darwinfoundation.org/en/research/projects/marine-birds 🐦
- 🐢 https://www.darwinfoundation.org/en/research/projects/conservation-of-giant-tortoises 🐢
- 🐤 https://www.darwinfoundation.org/en/research/projects/conservation-small-landbirds 🐤
Our second goal is economic reactivation. Beside donating to our official partners and upholding the essential work that they do in protecting and maintaining the Galapagos Islands, holders will also be offered an opportunity to help through much-needed tourism. For this reason, all Enchanted Creatures (holders of an ECC NFT) will have access to exclusive, members-only benefits on the islands, including discounts at top-tier hotels and other exciting perks to be announced in the coming future!
Through our goals, we look to connect conscious individuals, from all around the world, that really care about the Galapagos Islands with the organizations that can take real action. You no longer have to be the president to make real change, if you want to save this beautiful ecosystem, all you have to do is join the Enchanted Creatures Club.
We are a predominantly Ecuadorian team, made up of developers and artists, that know how beautiful the Islands are and want to prove to the world that NFTs are more than simple JPGs or a waste of money.
We want to make a statement on how technology and decentralization can save an entire ecosystem. With the help of our holders from all around the world, we hope to bring peace to the place that fills us with pride. The Islands we call home.
