"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!

I'm ashamed that I'm barely human
I'm ashamed that I don't have a heart you can break
I'm just action and other times reaction
Solace stared out at the vast mass of water out in front of him. All throughout his life he had heard stories of expanses of water this big, but never before had he actually seen it for himself. Now all that expanded out in front of him was water that simply seemed to go on forever. It was a simply captivating sight, and in all of his travels over the years he had never seen anything like even remotely comparable to this.
He also had wandered from his ‘home’. Ever since joining, it seemed like the herd was simply falling apart, and he needed to get away from the stress of it all. Still being a stranger always made him feel awkward, while all those around him mourned for the losses.
Off in the distance, he could see the sun beginning to rise. Perhaps this was symbolic of what was in store for his herd in the future, but Solace just couldn’t be sure. “I’m getting to sympathetic,” he grumbled to himself while shaking his head. It was ridiculous how sentimental he was getting toward a herd where he was still a foreigner. Not only that, he had proven himself to be incredibly useless, the wounds on his body had proved that.
What was he thinking joining a herd of warriors? Many associated his potential just with his size, even he himself had confidence in his ability by his size. Now, he got his ass kicked and a part of a family that was crumbling a part. Maybe it was time for him to change, time for him to stop trying to live life in the background. After all, how he managed to get through life is to simply remain invisible, and just keep on moving forward. Was that a healthy life to maintain? In the end, has it proven itself to be worth it?
A long sigh escaped from Solace’s nostrils. He was feeling rather sore for being stupid enough to wander all the way out here. His wounds were still rather fresh from his spar, and truly it was foolish for him to wander so far with his wounds still. Yet, he still found it to be a refreshing to wander his way here. It had allowed himself to just simply think.
Solace walked toward the water and got in up to the top of his hooves. He had no intentions of walking into the water, instead he simply started walking. The water made a sloshing noise, and created small splashes with each step he took. He wasn’t sure how long had passed before he stopped, his gaze turned out toward the horizon. Solace gave out another sigh as he simply watched the sun beginning to rise.
“I think for the first time in my life, I feel completely lost and unsure.” He muttered to himself. This land had sent him for a complete and utter tail-spin, and he wasn’t sure what to do with himself anymore. Inside of him something was starting to change, what exactly he didn’t know.
