"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?

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!

Ok so these last few weeks-months have not been the easiest and it seems that I have lost a lot of muse for rping. I have contemplated the idea of leaving it altogether but I really love my characters and want to try and give them a chance. Instead of giving them away or killing them off I have decided to give this one more try and hope that somethings change and improve to help keep my guys active and busy. I always like staying active but when you have zero posts my characters just tend to sit there unnoticed and lonely.
What I really need is plots since nobody I have has anything going on that will help keep my muse on them for too long.
Ciceron: Has been sparring and doing his duties but I need something more for him. He is a single bachelor so he could use some mares in his life to see where things might go
Brisa: Has been stuck up on one relationship that has been barely stringing her along. Will likely not be into any love like relationships but could use some crafting jobs, friends, socialization
Aeolus: No current plots for this guy so can use everything and anything.
Kalona: Has no current plots, just joined the Basin. Needs to meet people that will help to bring out his emotions for him to begin to discover what they mean. Having been raised practically alone he needs lots of TLC.
Rhea: Again has no plots going for her. She is currently in a mid life crisis where she is confused about as to where she really belongs. Is debating on rejoining the Basin but is unsure, may stay as an outcast but she needs interactions and lots of them. Might actually be open to love for the first time in her life so that could be a fun point.
Hera: Needs threads with everyone! She is still quite young and really needs anything
Um, when Merlin is born she can terrorize all of them and use her flashing horns to confuse them!!! @Nickel
I'm sorry you're feeling that way btw, I understand it gets rough when you have things to do and then you forget about your charries, but when you finally get back there's nothing for them to do so you just sit there and twiddle your thumbs. So hmu if you want, I can offer any of my charries really that you would want to interact with.
Any force is permitted aside from death or maiming
I'm going to try and offer up as much as I can for all of these! Let me know if any of these ideas pique your interest?
Ciceron ::
- Aleta is a HF filly that he could meet, maybe teach her some things? I dunno, she's going to need a gentle soul to help her given her issues in her early life (she's a dummy foal). She could really use a mentor/someone to kind of give her some extra attention.
- Persephone is a mare from the Rift that is terrified out of her mind of everything and has obsessive compulsive tendencies. She could really use a lesson that not all men are evil (yay for daddy issues)!
- Quilyan - maybe we could get some bachelors together and start up a "bachelor herd" of sorts? You know, get the guys together for a night out, Quil can be a bad influence and give Ciceron some kind of hallucinogenic plant to loosen him up, Idk. Could be fun?
- Sohalia - she'll be residing in HF for the time being to raise Aleta, so they could meet up and talk. Soh would probably have questions about HF and Kaj, dunno how much he would know but it could be a conversation?
- Xolani - mute, but super sweet and easily excited. Potential love interest?
Brisa:
- Aleta - crafting job? I'd have to give some thought to what she would want, and Idk if Brisa would be the type to take pity on her since she's a struggle bus of a foal, but Aleta would probably be super interested in any sort of crafting that wasn't her mother's and really curious. She's pretty shy, though.
- Persephone - needs friends. Badly. Someone to draw her out of her shell and help support her.
- Quilyan - he's pretty flirty, but he doesn't press for a relationship, so he might be kind of interesting, especially if he flirts with her and gets shut down. xD
- Sohalia - could really use a friend. She doesn't really have any and I need her to do something other than mope about men.
Aeolus:
- Literally any of mine for any reason. They all need friends and socialization, so really anything would go. Anything else listed for the others could probably apply to this character as well.
- Aleta - because she doesn't need to be a baby hermit forever.
- Sohalia - had kids with Note a looooong time ago (all dead - sadface), so would probably be interested if she found out who his daddy was.
Kalona:
- Oh, wow, he's gorgeous. <3
- Sjal - friends? or potential love interest? She's not the best at emotions either, but she could certainly try to understand him. She might be a bit standoffish or explosive at first if she just really didn't understand him, but she would apologize and try to help him. :3 She's also been more or less raised alone, so they could bond over that. Would LOVE to thread them together, really.
Rhea:
- anything and everything.
- Själ - hasn't seen a hybrid before that I can remember, so she'd probably be like WOAHHH LOOK AT YOU. Also very unsure about life, so could discuss their mutual crises if they become friends.
- Sohalia - would love to be a therapist sometime. xD
And I'm sure there's other things that could be done! Any of my babies are up for anything!
I would love for Cheveyo and Brisa to become friends! She's going to need help when she is raising her step-son Brendan and the foal that she will be having eventually! She's never had children before so is pretty clueless on the whole thing. And she is going to be a healer for the Falls~
Now waking to the sun
I calculate what I had done
Like jumping from the bow
Just to prove that I knew how
</style>
Semper: Brisa and Cheveyo should easily be able to become friends as they have met before <3 Bri is also a softie when it comes to babies so she would gladly help out
I offer Rikyn for any of them you think he'll serve a good nudge to! He is:
- Arrogant.
- Know-it-all.
- Supremacist.
- Humorous and playful - he's still a colt deep down.
- Has a religion he likes to share if people ask.
- Often mischievous.
Or just read through his profile. He seems to have a lot more people who think he's a butthat than a friend though. x3

I don't have much to offer, but my characters need lives and friends, so maybe they can help each other?
Lyanna in the Edge, and she's super sweet and nice and knows nothing about Helovia, and needs lots of friends and things to do
Syrena, who's bitter and angry, and just wandering around Helovia without a purpose. She might go back to the Falls or the Basin - maybe you have a character that wants to convince her to join up and help her be vaguely normal? That could be a project to keep you entertained, lol.
Most of my guys are just twiddling their thumbs hooves. I have got Keidajen who is joining the Aurora Basin and she will need someone to teach her the Helovian language. So if any of your guys want they could teach her. She is the only one needing something specific.
You can browse my list and see if anyone else catches your eye.
Maybe Merialeth could discover her crafting magic with guidance from Brisa?
The only one I have in the basin right now is Kalona. He is still new to the helovian nature but maybe they could figure things out together if you wanted. His personality is a little standoffish and strange but he isn't a bad guy ;p
Brisa would love to help Merialeth she absolutely adores foals and loves crafting

I'm pretty much up for whatever, but maybe...
One of your falls characters for Syrena? Maybe it'll convince her to do something with herself. She's probably not going to be good for a love interest (though we could try, it would be hilarious). But with that in mind, maybe Brisa?
And Lyanna can totally meet Hera, since they live together. Lyanna also might be decent at teaching Kalona about emotions. She is patient and kind and all that, so that could work too.
I realize I just suggested a lot of potential threads. But if something catches your eye, we can start there. Lol. Just throwing out a couple options :)

@Nickel
Oh that sounds awesome! I'd love to get him around some non-unicorn characters who are moderately sympathetic to his causes. :D
I can start a thread if you don't feel up to it, or I also have a couple open threads with tags that didn't get replies (been over a month! It's probably safe to assume they ain't comin' lol): here and here.
