"Where brilliance is good and madness is better..."
Helovia Info
Helovia opened in February 2012! We are an active fantasy equine RPG
Where once the world narrowed into naught but gray dust and desolation, the gods called for life. Wielding the elements of fire and light, dark and wind, earth and water, spark and time, they have created Helovia. The realm is set within the mythical globe of Loorien, a planet rich with all variety of creatures and blessed with all manner of magic. Originally populated by nomadic, tribal characters, they've since grown into massive empires saturated with culture and history. Separated into four distinct segments of Helovia, called "The Regions," each band of horse strong enough and capable enough, took up the power and responsibility of leadership. Unicorns, old, wise and mysterious, took to the north, hidden in forests of mists and shadows and rarely making themselves known beyond their cliffs of the World's Edge. Equines, vast, organized and militaristic, split into two, one group went north to the Windtossed Foothills and the other group went south to the Dragon's Throat. Pegasus remained nomadic, making their homes in various parts of The Wilds in a migratory manner. For many generations, the land was peaceful and calm, but peace was never the way of the gods. With a clash of argument, war and bloodshed massacred Helovia, and in the aftermath, the realm was eerily quiet. Now, as newcomers sweep into this land, they are met with the lingering bitterness of the gods and the struggle to reclaim what was lost. Nothing remains safe or certain while sorcerers and soldiers alike brood and bide their time for revenge, honor and glory.

Endless Night :: Dead Magic Plot ☼ - 6/22/13 - The gods of Helovia, in order to protect the world, have disappeared into the rift, leaving the world sunless, moonless and magic-less in their absence. Only the herdlands have a source of light, but lamp-trees with glowing leaves and branches sporadically line the popular roads and paths from place to place.
Doppleganger Plot ☼ - 6/20/13 - The God of Time is still struggling to close the rift though which the dopplegangers have come. He has requested that his brothers and sister assist in closing this hole, but without knowing why it opened, the task is proving difficult. Magic still remains faulty and hard to control, but the herdlands continue to be places of refuge for those who are fortunate enough to call these lands home.
ORANGEMOON cools off the lands with a a viscious force. Colder than normal, a sign of things to come during Frostfall, Helovia is bathed in a rich tropical lushness - albiet a cold one. The coastlines of the Dragon's Throat are pelted constantly by tidal waves, and the desert climate is humid but chilly. Ice begins to form early in the Aurora Basin leaving the winding trails slick and dangerous. The mists of the World's Edge coat everything in a glistening crystalline shine which encourages mould to grow everywhere. The Spectral Marsh is the only area which remains fertile, blissfully temperature and lush.

WEAVER, Corporal of the Aurora Basin, is a relatively recent addition to Helovia and has taken it by storm.

Though she is assuredly beautiful, her sometimes sharp personality reveals that there is more to this uni-peg hybrid than meets the eye. Proving herself able on the battlefield in the Basin’s warrior ranks, we can’t wait to see her test her mettle against the looming Kaos happenings! Congratulations!

Himitsu is a tri-color paint. Her Brody is decorated by a dark deep bay, a sunkissed dun, and a crisp white. One of her forelegs has a sock that is a much lighter dun than the rest of her dun markings. On her hocks and knees There are splashes of white. Both of her ears are outlined in black but one is white and the other is the same light dun color as her sock. Her muzzle ende with pink showing through a white splotch. For specific placement of her markings check out here reference.
Himitsu's mane is white and brown and her tail is brown and black. Although she can get around well despite her blindness she will often get her mane and tail knotted by the things that get caught up in them.
Born with no eyes, not even eye sockets, Himitsu instead has to extra horns where her eyes should be. With three horns in total the middle is like every other unicorn horn. It rests in the middle of her forehead and is rather long, it will grow a little longer for every year that she is alive. The middle horn will grow higher on her face than the other two; making a triangle shape. The other two will be shorter, about half the length of her main horn, and grow where her eyes should have been. Her horns are like ivory with a pearlescent shine.
Personality
||Mischievous||
Himitsu feels as though her life is largely out of her control so she gets entertainment from seeing others experience a little chaos. Himitsu will be the type to play pranks with the severity depending on how much she likes the target.
||Secretive||
Being unable to see takes more of a toll on her personality than what she would ever care to admit. Himitsu feels as if those around her know more about her than what she herself does in some ways. They know how she looks even whenever she has no way of telling. So in her own form of retaliation Himitsu keeps as much about herself secret as she can. There will be no gut-spillings from her unless it is her twin she speaks to.
||Cool Headed||
It takes a great deal to get Himitsu worked up. Nothing else really holds a candle to hearing her mother's murder. It annoys her whenever others fall apart over little nothings. If they press her too hard then she will give them something to fret about.
||Arrogant||
Himitsu has never seen the world for what it is. Having never seen anything she has created her own imagining s of what the world must look like. And she has no desire to know what things actually are. Why should she whenever she has her own world?
||Racist||
After her mother's death Himitsu will be weary of and racist towards pegasi and equines. Due to never having seen one in their true real life appearance she pictures them all as terrible monsters.
||Sharp Sense of Hearing&Smell||
Having no sight her senses of hearing and smell skyrocketed in strength. Because of this she will love music and will want to be surrounded by sounds that create what she perceives to be musical. Himitsu will judge someone a lot by the sound of their voice. She will be unnerved about sleeping since she cannot see and will search to find what sound lulls her to sleep the best.
||Devoted||
For those that she considers to be family she would do anything. And for the most part she would do it without question.
History
Taken from Tora's profile:
"Born to a sperm donor of a father and an absent minded mare who tried hard to care for her twin daughters, even with the one's disabilities. Tora and her sister had a rough start to the beginning of their stories. So far there isn't much to tell other than their mother being murdered by a band of equines and pegasi that lead to the young girls being orphaned not far from the threshold of Helovia.
Their mother's death only lit the spark of their racism towards other species. Soon after the death of their dam, the girls ran into a band of unicorns that told tales of a wonderful land full of superior unicorns that would take them in with open arms. So there they went."

Vision: I love Himitsu dearly but I have never been able to hit that big clicking moment with her. I really just want her to be played.
If she is adopted and it is decided the adopter no longer wants her I would want for her to be returned to me.
