[NOVAIR FOXES] (Hiatus)

Postby Birdy » Fri May 26, 2017 5:00 pm

Novair Foxes are currently on hiatus. I hope to bring them back soon, but for now they are inactive. Thanks for showing interest- marking is still open!

"Many moons ago, there was a faraway world known as Equicion. It was home to a species called Novair Foxes, an intelligent and mystical being with soft, cloud-like fur. They were a happy race who spent their time charting the skies and exploring unknown worlds, using the stars above as their guide. There was even talk of exploring a planet Earth, home to a group known as humans.

One day, however, the very stars that watched over Equicion went dark. A large shadow loomed overhead, blocking out the Novair Foxes' means of guidance. Many Foxes were lost that day, having been away from home and unable to travel back. The ones who remained held out hope of a clearer sky.

The hope was soon lost, however, and they realized they had to find another home. Gathering what was left of the star dust on their planet, they now keep it in necklaces near their hearts, where it continues to guide them in their search of a new home. Still, the darkness that clouds their once-familiar sky is growing, and a few Foxes have returned deformed and with contaminated dusts.



Coming soon! Feel free to mark as things get sorted.

RULES
• This is a closed species. Do not make your own without permission.
Selling of Novair Foxes is prohibited.
• For now, trading and gifting of Novair Foxes is prohibited. This is likely to change once the species gets moving.
• Your Novair Fox may be of any sex, gender, or orientation.
• For now, each person is allowed 10 Novair Foxes (including customs). This is likely to change once the species gets moving.

FAQ
1. How do I get a Novair Fox?
• Novair Foxes can be won through adoptions, which can be found in the 'color in' section. Adoption requirements are specific to each Fox, and could include simple or lengthy forms, 'impress me's, etc. You do not have to pay to adopt a Novair Fox.
2. What can I do with my Novair Fox?
• There are tons of things you can do with your Fox! Roleplaying and character-building are just a couple of examples.
2. Can I breed my Novair Fox?
• As of now, you may not breed your Fox. This may change over time once the species has had time to grow and develop.
3. What kinds of Novair Foxes can I adopt?
• There are (at the moment) 6 different factions of Novair Foxes. Please take a moment to look through each faction to learn their different traits and roles.
4. Why can't I trade or gift my Novair Fox?
• Because the species is so new, we would like to encourage thorough character-building. This means that we'd like for new owners to have a chance to bond with their Fox before they are able to trade or gift them. This also gives Novair Foxes time to acquire archivists and mods who can regulate future trading and gifting.
5. What is a Familiar?
• You can read all about them here.
6. I would like to be a staff member! How do I apply?
• There is an ongoing search for artists here. Mod and Archivist applications can be found here. Be sure to check whether or not we are currently looking for Mods/Archivists before submitting a form!

Familiars & Extended Lore

Postby Birdy » Fri May 26, 2017 5:01 pm

Image

Before leaving their home to search for new lands, the Novair Foxes took with them a bit of stardust. Each Fox has their own stash of dust, which is kept in jewelry, typically a necklace. When opened, the dust takes the form of a 'familiar', which is a creature that is attached to each individual Fox. The creature may seem familiar (known to humans/real) or strange (mythical/made up).
The creature's job is to aid the Fox in their duties, and no matter what, to always guide them home.
