New Quest, Contest, and OTM Voting
New Quest: The Beast's Best Friend
A new quest has appeared! Check out
Quest: The Beast's Best Friend to see what all the hubbub is about!
OTM Voting
As we are still working out the kinks in the automatic OTM voting page, for now we will have OTM voting done manually. We are now accepting nominations for:
COTM: Character of the Month
POTM: Pair of the Month
MOTM: Member of the Month
TOTM: Thread of the Month
When nominating, please keep in mind: voting for yourself/your own characters for COTM and MOTM will have you disqualified (thats no fair!). You can however vote for threads you participate in, as well as a pair your character is part of, for TOTM and POTM.
To make your nominations, please send a PM to the Origin Cave account. We will announce the OTM results on June 1st. Those who receive the most nominations will be awarded OTM! You can also claim your OTM rewards from the Magicka Market.
Design a Spell Contest
Want to design a spell for Origin? Maybe you have a cool idea for a spell you want your character to use? Submit it to the
Design a Spell Contest! The contest runs until June 5th. Good luck!
Rare Character Slot 
We are happy to introduce a new feature that we think members will enjoy
fighting over..
pining over... working VERY hard to get! A
Rare Character Slot will allow whoever owns one to turn it into a rare character of their choice - this includes an animal whose species is not listed on the allowed species list, a first generation hybrid, a non-Earth species (ex. a dragon, alien, etc). More details on these can be found in the Guidebook in the Characters section. These slots will be awarded as contest prizes mostly, but can also be given out to members who have shown exemplary behavior or have gone above and beyond to help out with our community. Members who have won a Rare Character Slot will have the icon appear under their names in the OOC Member List.
Bug Fix
Attempts now appear on archived IC thread posts.
Reminders!
We have a few threads we'd like to remind you guys about!
Achievements and Breeding Time Poll
Remember to leave your opinion on potential changes to the breeding mechanic, as well as achievements
on this thread!
Quest: The Strangeness of Cetus
This quest is still in progress - in fact, this tunnel has been flooding this whole time!
Maybe somebody should head down there and investigate?
Vote for Origin!
At the bottom of the index in our affiliates section we have a button for
Animus Top 50. If you'd like to help out raising awareness about Origin, you can click that button and vote for us! Of course this isn't necessary, only a small favor to Origin should you choose to do it.
The Cave Report
Hide and Seek
It seems all the deer in Origin Cave have come together for a day of games! Awww! That's so cute! Baby Clover, you're the cutest. And Tamelyn. And Nyx. And little evil Vazi. And Fortune, who is not a deer, but an antelope. (Close enough)
oh, this is just my luck
Well, look who finally showed up! Rohan has been mysteriously MIA for the majority of the month, but it seems this whole time he's been busy fulfilling some kind of quest. Now he's gotten himself stuck - is there anybody around who can come to his rescue? And maybe see where he's been this whole gosh darn time?!

Cancer should probably learn to mind his tongue, especially when the people he's trash talking are right behind him. Azazel arrives in Maji Walezi territory to warn Cancer about the dangerous golems that have started roaming the caves, and Leon volunteers to accompany them to the Core to investigate.

A mysterious chunk of serendebite has wiggled out of the wall and clattered to the floor, attracting the attention of Azazel and three large cats. What will become of the stone?
What will become of Azazel?! That poor stone probably just wants somebody to take it home and look after it - let's see who ends up claiming it!
If something interesting is happening in your thread, send a PM to the Origin Cave account or alert the staff in the cbox. We'd love to cover it in the current or next issue of The Cave Report!
