  • Information

    Helix is a petite girl, ivory fur and hair that fell well past the small of her back. She is an albino with pinkish eyes. Well, one eye. The left eye was kept covered by a dark hued leather eye patch, that was itself concealed by several strands of alabaster hair. She had been enslaved, along with her twin brother, and used for occult ritual experimentation. Her eye was "taken" as part of torture. Whether it was actually removed or magically sealed is unknown to her. Beneath the lapine's fur, the flesh is covered with scattered scars and strange symbols engraved into the flesh. The rabbit's ears no longer stand straight and upright as they once used to. The long appendages lay flat and limp at the sides of her head. Their heavy weight brushing slightly past her shoulders. The poor girl is timid and un-trusting. After a life like this, it should be understandable. She can be very vicious if approached too quickly. Gentle words are out of the ordinary so this one is quite the paranoid spit-fire.

    Her twin (not identical) brother, Helix, was also captured with her. Their twin bond runs deep and they were nearly inseparable as children. They were a rare breed in their hometown and displayed certain abilities that were amplified when they were together. Like two halves to a whole. Telepathy, clairvoyance and heightened senses including a sixth sense ran strong between them and even stronger together.

    The wolves on their region were known for abducting rare and gifted creatures for their own ritual practice. Their parents hid them well and even died keeping them a secret. Slain by the evil wolves in their desperate search. As they grew older, they only had each other and were found and captured when they reached their full potential. Helix was caught and Helios sacrificed himself to save her but the greedy bastards took them both. A life of pain and torture awaited them. Years of it.

    Seven years of being drugged to remain incoherent, ritualistic torture and cruel practices were endured by the woman. Constant separation from her brother with only brief moments of interaction between the two for the wolves sick agenda just to see how their abilities "worked". Helios would get slightly worse treatment as he displayed a stronger candidate.

    It would take years of planning and one of their captors to make a mistake in order for Helix to escape. Thinking she was completely incapacitated late one evening, one of the lesser wolves left her alone. Long enough to poison him so she could escape. Disoriented, she was still able to quietly search for her brother whom she found bound in a dark room and released him to escape with her. It did not take the other wolves long to figure out what she had done and they were quickly upon them. Helios tried to fight them off, but as strong as he was, too much had been done to him and the large wolves were too much to conquer. Even with her help. He would scream at her to run and sacrificed himself in order for her to be successful. She left him with the promise that she would be back to rescue him and took the metal tag from around his neck.

    Helix could hear the excruciating cries of her brother as the wolves took him over.

    After a few years of hiding in the Golden Tether and trying to gather resources to fulfill her promise to her brother,, Helix could no longer feel his life force and presumed him dead. But that would not stop her from wanting revenge.

    Word of the woman got out though, that she was also being hunted by those powerful wolves and she would be found and captured by the Golden Tethers slave trade to be put to death.

    That is, until the purchase of a certain Captain of the Guard of House Buryat.

    Helix is a strange little rabbit. She is prone to mood swings, though she has learned to calm some in her years. Helix has been known to drift, perhaps daydream and mumble to herself, a side effect of an ever active mind. She can be very fidgety and nervous, or calm and brazen tongued.

    A streak of violence runs deep within the belly of this female. An impulsion just waiting to strike. She could be as the devil, whispering manipulations into an ever lending ear.

    She does not recall too many details of where she is from or her family. She has blurred recollections of snow and frigid temperatures with brief moments of, what she assumes to be, the face of her brother, in passing dreams. She has a severe fear of wolves, the very same beasts who captured her. Poked, prodded, cut and tested, she does not care for these beings.

    Having spent an abundance of time being imprisoned, this rabbit had acquired a knack for chemistry, and herbal alchemy. She absorbed quite a bit of knowledge when it came to mixing up tonics and elixirs. A bit self taught through what she had learned through vague memories and her own experiments.

    Those born under the Taurus zodiac sign are often one of the most reliable and dependable signs of the zodiac. They value their sense of security and stability, and this is their role as the second sign of the zodiac. After Aries brings its fiery energy, it is Taurus that lays down the foundations. They will always search for stability in both their choices and the people they associate with.

    Taurus is generally quite stubborn in a lot of areas in their lives - they have a strong dislike for change, and once they settle down with their routines, it can take a great effort to get them to change. They are not just stubborn, but also strong willed. They tend to stick to their guns and be very methodical about their approach to actions. Many under this zodiac sign therefore are full of integrity. Their determination and diligence is also the reason that many Taurus zodiac signs find success - they are hard workers that don’t mind getting their hands dirty, and always see that what they set out to do is completed.

    For pleasure, Taurus tends to enjoy the sensual pleasures of life, anything physical will generally make them happy, and this extends to any kind of food, drink, or entertainment - anything that they can absorb with all of their senses. They often have great taste as well and a deep appreciation for finer things.

    Being an Earth sign, having a close proximity or access to nature is very important, and people with the Taurus sign can often be found living and settling down in the country. Being lovers of nature, they don't like long periods spent stuck inside, or stuck in built up areas and cities.Amazing friends, colleagues, and partners, Taureans value honesty above all else and are proud that their personal relationships tend to be drama free. Bulls get the reputation of being stubborn, but they're not always stuck in their ways. This searching sign is willing to see another point of view, but they won't flip-flop on an opinion just to make someone else happy. They will shift their thinking only if they truly have a change of heart.


    Taurus is an Earth sign, just like Virgo and Capricorn, and has the ability to see things from a grounded, practical and realistic perspective. They find it easy to make money and stay on same projects for years, or until they are completed. What we often see as stubbornness can be interpreted as commitment, and their ability to complete tasks whatever it takes is uncanny. This makes them excellent employees, great long-term friends and partners, always being there for people they love. Earthly note makes them overprotective, conservative, or materialistic at times, with views of the world founded on their love of money and wealth.


    The ruler of Taurus is Venus, the planet of love, attraction, beauty, satisfaction, creativity and gratitude. This tender nature will make Taurus an excellent cook, gardener, lover, and artist. They are loyal and don't like sudden changes, criticism or the chase of guilt people are often prone to, being somewhat dependable on other people and emotions they seem to be unable to let go of. Still, no matter their potential emotional challenge, these individuals have the ability to bring a practical voice of reason in any chaotic and unhealthy situation. Taurus will hold a grudge against someone who lies, even if it's a lie just to make them feel happy.

    Because of their own high standards, they also tend to push themselves rather hard, meaning that when they complete something that doesn’t quite live up to their own expectations, they can be rather hard on themselves. Sometimes their connection to the material world can make them a bit possessive - with both people and things.
    Being naturally patient people, it takes a lot to make a Taurean angry, but when they are, be sure to stand back as far as you can. This zodiac sign is rather fierce and protective when they are pushed too far and too fast.

    Taurus Friends and Family
    People born in this sign are loyal and always willing to lend a hand of friendship, although they can be closed up for the outer world before they build trust for new social contacts they make. Many of their friendships begin in childhood with a tendency to last them a lifetime. Once they make a clear intimate connection to another person, they will do anything they can to nurture the relationship and make it functional even in the hard times.

    How to Attract a Taurus Woman
    If you want to seduce a woman born with her Sun in Taurus, you will need to appeal to her sense of romance. Taurus women want to be courted and slowly seduced, even when they have already decided to enter a relationship with someone. They need things to move slowly, and will rarely jump into a sexual bond quickly and without thinking long and hard about her choices.

    A Taurus woman longs for true love and security. It is very unlikely that she will give into her desires and instincts quickly, and if someone wishes to have her heart, they will have to spend a lot of time and energy into the game of winning her over, making her feel comfortable. Once she falls in love she becomes affectionate, intimate, close and loyal, standing by her partner for as long as he is faithful to her. She has an eye for beautiful things and appreciates simplicity of fine things in life, so the way to approach her is through enjoyable shared moments, respect for privacy, fine food and a gentle touch.

    This is a woman who doesn’t like to feel rushed when dating and needs to have her time. Once she feels comfortable and secure with someone, she will happily and quickly give her heart without holding back. Taureans are all about honesty, which is why a first date with a Bull may resemble a job interview. They're not being rude—they're built for partnerships and are simply trying to see if you're a good fit at the start. They do not tolerate partners breaking their loyalty and will never forget transgressions of fidelity. They are not likely to commit these types of transgressions themselves, and if they do will feel incredibly guilty about it.
