Thoenen Helios, in Babkha naturalized as Cyrus Aftab Zad, was a Helios-born naturalized Babkhan, Hurmu, and Feianovan politician and businessman. Erstwhile Strategos of the Republic of Helios, he moved to Babkha and quickly became naturalized. As a Babkhan citizen, he founded the Qermez Party, a left-wing party with support and funding from socialist and anarchist movements in Feianova. After it was alleged by Antican dinarch Delphi Augustus, in 1493, that he was a spy in Babkha on behalf of Feianova, Theonen Helios moved to Hurmu as a political refugee. There, he could not stop himself from engaging in politics once again, and he was elected Leader of the Thingy (the legislature of Hurmu) in 1495, a position he formally held until his death in 1505. However, from 1497, the Thingy was rarely in session, with more and more power being centralized with the baronial government.

He died in Huyenkula in 1505 and was given a state funeral in the same city in the rites of his native religion from Helios. He is buried in the Gardens of the Palace of the Elenaran.
