"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.
Site Wide Plots
Kaos :: The Beginning of the End ☼ - 6/2017 - Kaos placed Helovia in a time-bubble for a short period of time, but the Helovian gods are fighting back. But Kaos is powerful- far more powerful than anyone thought. This may be the beginning of the end of Helovia as we know it.
Kisamoa :: A New Kind of Kaos ☼ - 3/2017 - Kisamoa asks Helovians to help him restore the Spectral Marsh. Which side will you choose?
Invasions :: All Out War ☼ - 5/2/16 - New layout and the brand new invasion rules are up! Thank you for your patience and we look forward to getting started with this new adventure.
The Rift :: Gods Do Die ☼ - 8/2015 - Helovia Gods are saving the Rift from corrupt gods! Can Helovians band together against these foreign deities?
The Literal Ship ☼ - 2/8/15 - Oh no! You have to pair up for Valentine's day!
Sky Island :: Murder ☼ - 10/25/14 - Vesta has been found dead on the island, and the gods have called to you to solve the murder!
Sky Island :: Peace ☼ - 7/7/14 - An island has appeared in the sky! Clouds carry Helovians from the Veins to the sky.
Restoration :: We Welcome the Dawn ☼ - 9/21/13 - The sun has finally risen on this day, giving the land new light, but the Time God and the Sun God have yet to be seen.
Endless Night :: Broken Magic Plot ☼ - 8/30/13 - The earth god has returned and is walking across Helovia to heal the land. Every area can now be considered lush and prosperous, but the sun has still not risen.
☼ - 7/19/13 - The moon has risen in the sky, heralding the return of the Goddess of the moon. Lamp trees which light the paths have grown brighter, moon flowers which grow in dark places have begun to grow and prosper and the world is brighter, filled with a new hope.
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.

Character of the Month for
June, 2017
WEAVER, Corporal of the Aurora Basin, is a relatively recent addition to Helovia and has taken it by storm. Branded with the seal of Death on her chest, intrigue and interest follow both her past and present. 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!

Maybe I'll go check the mail today, by myself, check out the scene and see new sights I never could before, take the route once blocked by electrical work to the clunky alloy P.O. box I haven't checked in years, you know, the kind that you picture all empty inside 'cept for shadows and cobwebs, who knows!
So I went, what a mob, took forever to get through that line, felt like four hours before it was all said and done. And would you guess what I found in the mail: an old plate wrapped up in cloth and commemorating times of old, and more than just a little cracked!
I'd write to the sender, you see, tell them about the crimes of the post office and try and get their money back for them, but here's the kicker: I've got no family to write to!
Maybe I'll go check the mail today, by myself - Is an Outcast
check out the scene and see new sights I never could before - Has participated in all SWP discovery threads
all empty inside 'cept for shadows and cobwebs, who knows! - Empty inside = reference to dark personality, shadows = black fur, cobwebs = white forelegs

So I went, what a mob, took forever to get through that line, felt like four hours before it was all said and done.

(Reference to his father, a long-time Helovian and leader)
I'd write to the sender, you see, tell them about the crimes (Has murdered on site) of the post office and try and get their money back for them, but here's the kicker: I've got no family to write to!
Holy water cannot help you now

Edit Reason: Edit for clarity + proper points.

PASS
Maybe I'll go check the mail today, by myself, +1 | Yep - Rank ref.
check out the scene and see new sights I never could before, take the route once blocked by electrical work -1 | It wasn't blocked by the God of the Spark - if anything, it was the 'electrical work' which unblocked it. And like mentioned in your last stealth, mentioning electricity like this seems to suggest something about the character. Since he has no spark magic, this was misleading for me.
to the clunky alloy P.O. box I haven't checked in years, +1| Okay as an appearance ref.
you know, the kind that you picture all empty inside 'cept for shadows and cobwebs, who knows! 0 | Black mist isn't the same as a shadow or a cobweb.
So I went, what a mob, took forever to get through that line, felt like four hours before it was all said and done. +1| Yep!
And would you guess what I found in the mail: an old plate wrapped up in cloth and commemorating times of old, and more than just a little cracked! 0 Good as an appearance ref again, but you can only get points for one type of clue.
I'd write to the sender, you see, tell them about the crimes of the post office and try and get their money back for them, but here's the kicker: I've got no family to write to! +1| Yep!

---No herd, & came out of the Rift alone/knowing nobody there +1| [Rank ref] solid
---Blood Falls was unavailable before Time God "fixed it" 0| [History ref] too vauge
---Artorias is part metal/has metal items (specifically steel, which is an alloy) and shadows come from inside him 0| [Asset ref] hmm, I just really struggled with this, because cobwebs felt like a reference and shadows isn't the same as mist or fog. Also the alloy metal reference was super short compared to the mention of mail and 'haven't checked in years all empty inside' it just doesn't feel focused enough for me to say yes.
---Clunky is a reference both to his larger size and his build as a result from being fused with metal. 0| [Build ref] because his profile doesn't really describe him as clunky I don't feel this can apply. Who knows he could be a ballerina.
So I went, what a mob, took forever to get through that line, felt like four hours before it was all said and done.
---The first SWP fight had a lot of people and there were four threads to it. 0| [Thread ref] doesn't apply to the character
And would you guess what I found in the mail: an old plate, wrapped up in cloth and commemorating times of old, and more than just a little cracked!
---From appearance: "A grand figure of steel and cloth, mail and plate. " +1| [Appearance ref] Niiice

---The plate is "more than just a little cracked" because Artorias himself is described as broken in personality. +1| [Personality ref] was a bit ont he fence with this one, but I think in the end it's clear enough.
