Community Hall
Welcome to the Community Hall! Here we work on projects as a whole unit together or celebrate unity in one way or another; be it through team-building events, Mateship Ceremonies, or through celebrating the bond of friendship - there is always something you can do here! We even have a fishing class for the elderly folk to help their joints, and an all-ages piano lounge hosted on the weekends. Don't see something you're interested in? Be sure to check back often as we are always hosting events that everyone can join in on!
Mateship Ceremony
Requires: Level 2
“Ah, I see that you have found a beloved or two to be with until the end of days! Oh, happy days. It's always heartwarming to see new love blossom in these trying times. Forming a mateship is a testament to one's bond and love for another, and is held sacred within Solarian Society. Here in Solaria, it is allowed for mateships to be formed with up to 3 'Mara or Droma at a time. You must all be sure of your decision before the Ceremony begins, as once a mateship is formed, any breakage of the Mateship will form a scar on one's soul, disallowing you to be mated to the same souls again”
What moment did your Characters know they wished to be mated?
- Does your character devote their life to helping others?
- Has your character decided on their lifelong career?
- Perhaps they have reached a complete state of serenity, entirely content with their life the way it is?
- Maybe they’ve found your Soulmate and things cannot simply get better from here?
- Or maybe they're not sure what their future holds, but the uncertainty only motivates them to find out?
Important Quest Information:
In order for your characters to be mated into a couple/throuple, they must share a special moment between the two/three of them.
These do not have to be the same as one-another if you feel that one character holds a different special moment close to them than the other/s.
You must submit a unique entry for all parties involved with a Mateship which means if you own only one of the characters within the mateship, the other owner must also submit an entry for the mateship to go through. These will not be accepted until all parts of the quest entries have been submitted.
Dromedairies and Kiamaras can become mated in a cross-species relationship.
Standard Art Requirements:
Must at least be a sketchy flatcoloured half-body of the focus character. Must at least show sketchy, flatcoloured busts of the other characters within the proposed mateship. Must show the emotions of the characters.
Standard Writing Requirements:
Must be at least 400 words in length. Must mention each character's name. Must mention the location the event occurred and what the weather was like on that day. Must have at least one conversation written between the focus character and each other character within the proposed mateship.
All characters that go through a mateship will acquire both buffs listed below.
You can read up more about how to use these buffs from the Perma-Buff Guide.
Buff: Unwavering
Kiamara Buff Ability: When used in a breeding with another Kiamara in the mateship, this buff will grant +5 to all traits passable from this Kiamara. Does not stack if the other Kiamara has the same trait.
Dromedairy Buff Ability: Grants a 7% chance for a hybrid colour palette to pass to offspring when used in a breeding with another Dromedairy in the mateship. Also gains a 3% chance for a colour palette of another biome different to all parents involved in the mateship to be granted to offspring.
Buff: Deep Connection
Buff Ability: When used in a quest, the user will gain a 5% chance to obtain either an Offering of Love or a Fling Trinket
A Friend In Need
Requires: Level 2 - ONE SUBMISSION FOR EACH KIAMARA
"Solaria can be confusing at times, and sometimes it can be downright dangerous with all this Calamity malarky, that’s why it’s important to always keep your friends close. Like me! I don’t have too many friends, but you won’t ever catch me leaving the house without Zip and Zop. People seem to think friends need to be other Kiamaras… But hey! Friends can be whoever you want them to be. I had this uh, “friend” who was best friends with a rock when I was, uh, THEY were younger… Anyway… Having Zip & Zop is cool and all but nothing beats talking to another 'Mara, heading out for a walk with them, or heading down to the Plaza in Pandrea and sampling the goodies. Have you ever had another Kiamara you'd consider a friend help you with something?
What problem do you need to overcome and how does your friend help you?
- Perhaps your friend helped you through a tough life event?
- Did someone throw away an object you hold dear and your friend got it back?
- Your friend bailed you out of an uncomfortable situation?
- Did you thank your friend for helping you? How did you thank them?
- Were you backed up in a fight or did you get talked into your senses?
- Maybe they helped you recover an item from a sneaky little Lampyre?
Minimum Art Requirements:
Must at least be a sketched half body with flat colour of the Kiamara. Must depict the situation in which your friend helped you.
Minimum Writing Requirements:
Must be at least 400 words in length. Must mention both Kiamaras' names. Must be written from the first-person perspective. Must describe the situation between the two Kiamaras.
All characters that go through this quest will acquire the buff listed below.
You can read up more about how to use this buff from the Perma-Buff Guide.
Buff: Best Friends
Buff Ability:
Allows you to draw/write two linked characters together in a single quest entry and be allowed to submit it twice if they meet the requirements for both the quest and the buff; once for each character. This means if you tend to write entries where one of your characters interacts with another or you like drawing pieces with two characters, they can now be accepted twice!

Oh, hey there Riftie! Most of Solaria is celebrating Estertide at the moment while I'm busy working on a surprise for Masie. The job board had shut down for a while due to a partial collapse of the building. It has been abandoned for quite some time and efforts to get it cleaned up and repaired has been put on hold for so long to focus on other important matters aroun Solaria. However, I've heard quite a few people asking when it'll be rebuilt again recently and I know Masie has been itching to get back to work running the job board.
So, I'm wanting to spend the time while everyone is distracted with the Estertide celebrations to get the repair the building, clean it up, and have it ready to open as a little treat to the community but also for Masie! Would you mind lending a hand if you have the time?
You have until the 31st of May to submit your entry!
How does your character help with the job board repair?
- Do they help rebuild the collapsed part of the building?
- Maybe they spend an afternoon cleaning up some of the debris?
- Perhaps they help repaint the walls?
- Maybe they bring in new decorations to help spruce up the place once it's repaired?
- Or maybe, they simply make sure everyone on the repair team is provided with snacks and drinks!
Standard Art Requirements:
Must be at least a sketch, flat coloured bust. Must show how your character helps with the job board repair. Must show how your character feels about the job board re-opening (this can be as simple as a thought bubble with a smiley face)
Standard Writing Requirements:
Must be at least 200 words in length in total. Must mention your character's name. Must mention how your character helps with the job board repair. Must mention how your character feels about the job board re-opening.
You will recieve TWO of each of the following for your submission.
This collectible is given out at random to one lucky user who takes part in this quest at the end of each month!
