"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. 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!

Feel lucky for what you have, when you have it. Happily ever after doesn’t mean happy forever.
Things have settled back to normal- mostly anyways. Elsa had gained most of her weight and muscle back after the past couple of weeks. Having Darwin around was a bonus, she didn’t feel so helpless and unwanted anymore. So for once in their entire lives the duo, zephyr and all, were content to just exist.
So much had happened while she was away. There was a gate now- and the fucking defenses. An unimaginable sense of dread and anger washed over her every time she saw the pristine defenses so poignant against the setting sun of Birdsong. It seemed so wrong, and knowing the bloody, horrifying extremes the Edge went through to get them made it seem all the worse. They may see protection, but all Elsa could see was death. The screams, the pleads, the want to just survive.
And all it took was one selfish soul to set the whole thing ablaze.
Elsa’s heart lurched in her chest, as Edgar cooed quietly from his perch atop her head. ’Elsa it over. No pain. We can’t change it.’ Edgar, ever the level headed companion satiated her sudden desire to seek out the king and take the last of his manhood away. Catching wind of Elsa’s thoughts, Edgar did let out a choked beaky laugh at the thought of Elsa fully castrating the Elephant King. Oh how fun of a time that would be explaining to the world why his (unbeknownst to Elsa) fervent baby making suddenly ceased.
But in the clamor of it all, Elsa’s thoughts lingered on her successor. Alysanne had been an odd choice- not one that Elsa had expected. The hate the broiled during that appointment was astounding, and Elsa had the right mind to teach them all a lesson right then and there. The Devoted was kind, and thus far the Edge seemed to flourish beneath her rule- something Elsa had failed miserably to do. Maybe a kind heart was the leader Helovia needed, even if it didn’t want it. So much good had burst forth from the Healer’s ascendance to the throne that Elsa would actually have the guts to beat in another mouthy face should they make an appearance again.
The duo wondered just how well she was fairing, maybe it was time to do a little house call and check up on the queen. Elsa knew just how much she needed a friend in those times, that maybe this little gesture would help boost her morale should it be low.
Alysanne had heard that Elsa had returned to the Edge but had not yet even so much as glimpsed her friend. The Edge was a large tract of forest, she shouldn’t be surprised that they just hadn’t happened to cross paths yet, but it bothered her a little bit. Were the rumours even true?
She had only just begun to doubt when she stumbled across Elsa in what seemed a very accidental way - not being aware that the former queen had been looking for her. “Elsa!” She called, her voice closing the gap between them while her legs worked to do the same. She had never been particularly close to the other mare but she felt a kinship with her all the same. Not many others knew what it was like to rule alongside the Elephant King and all the stresses that he introduced into the world.
A smile broke out in the green eyes of the painted pegasus and she hurried over to greet the other mare, coming to a halt before her. She reached out with her muzzle to gently nudge Elsa's in greeting, if she would let her. Regardless though, her eyes were absolutely shining when she pulled back. “My dear, how are you?”
just let my love throw a spark
