"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!

Scars heal, glory fades
Pain hurts, but only for a minute
'Cause the chicks dig it
Silver fur swirled in the breeze as large paws pounded at the ground. The she wolf hadn't seen her bonded in a very long while, but if her nose was correct he would be back home soon. Ilios had been out searching for his sister,completely consumed by the need to find her. He had asked Isabella to stay behind and watch the herd and his children, which she had willingly agreed to. Now her heart longed for him, they had been apart for much to long. Of course the stallion had checked in regularly, but both of their hearts felt empty and heavy. The wolf pushed her paws harder into the ground accelerating to shove away the dark feeling. She knew he was coming home could feel it in their bond, but he was about to be moving a lot faster. She topped a sand dune golden eyes settling on the mare her brother had been searching for. She screamed the news in her head desperate to let Ilios know what was home, 'SISTER!!'
Far away Ilios heard a whisper in his mind silver eyes looking around curiously for the source. His shoulders rose in a confused shrug before he continued moving north again.
Frustrated Isabella lowered herself to the golden sand her eyes watching the mare as she prepared to take wing. Carefully the wolf lifted herself up and shifted to her Preyton form and took flight after sister. As the mare landed beside her golden wolf, Bee, Isabella floated away trying not to look to interested. She called again to her brother, 'Sister!' But Ilios was to far away to hear her calls.
The duo below drifted away and she dove for the ground her body shifting to take the form of her cheetah self. She slunk around behind them carefully trying not to be detected. Once she was sure they spotted her causing her to run off a ways. She wans't sure why it was so important for the mare and wolf not to see her, but it didn't feel right. Retracing her steps she spotted the duo and held back so she could only catch glimpses of them. They made their way north towards the Hidden Falls and she called again to Ilios, 'Sister come!'
This time the words came through loud and clear and he realized who it must be. Excitement flooded him at the thought Isabella could finally speak to him, and he was about to be reunited with his sister! With a squeal of pure delight the stallion wheeled and raced south. 'Where are you?' A pause, 'Thistles.' He knew just where that was, 'Hold them, I'll be there in a minute.' His wings snapped open and he launched himself into the air. Limbs grabbed at his sides and blood leaked from several cuts while twigs stuck in his tail.
Her orders were clear, she had to hold them in one spot, make them stay until he could get there. Her shifted to that of a silver coated wolf. A howl of pleading ripped from her lips as she raced ahead. She ran to the side praying she could cut them off before they reached the other side. Snow grabbed at her paws and bite at her pads, but she ran on desperate to stop them. As she burst from the tree line she prayed the pair wouldn't think they she was a wild wolf hunting them. She ran past them then swung around and stood panting in front of them. She turned her head so her ivy markings, so like Ilios's, were in plain sight. Her eyes begged for her to stop and her body langue begged for Bee to not attack her tail lowered and ears shifted back.
