"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.

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!

Since she had left Nocturne, Aly had been thinking about how to try to get back. She left so much of herself there; making a new life here in Helovia did not seem possible. That was not to say that she did not adore World’s Edge and Kahlua was so marvellous – but they were substitutes for something she had somewhere else.
Oh she had dreamed about waking up to find that they were all here, that her new and old friends could meet one another and life would be wonderful. Always the optimist but the realistic (though smaller) part of her did not really believe it was possible.
And then.
Her breath caught as soon as she sees the black figure. It had done so often, whenever she saw someone from a distance that could be him, but in another second it was always released because she just knew it wasn’t. But this time, could it really be?
She had come here on a whim. After getting settled in and accustomed to World’s Edge she decided to explore. Finding the shore, she followed it to the north. She had never seen a true tundra before – Elysium had occasionally disguised itself as such but it was not the same.
“Have I stumbled into a dream?” The question to herself came with a laugh – both at how ridiculously poetic she was being and the situation in general. Could it really be him? She knew him, knew him so well. Knew him well enough to be able to recognize him from his brother.
Identical, they almost even smelled the same. But Alysanne knew. Oh she knew him. And oh her heart would break if this were some trick. There was magic here, she knew. She had seen it performed by Kahlua upon their arrival in World’s Edge – the product a glass chain headband encircling her ears, with a small heart dangling down beneath her forelock. She had even heard that there were Gods though she did not yet know what to do with such knowledge. Were there Gods? Were they similar to the angels and demons of her former home?
At that thought, there was a prickle of a memory concerning those demons but it did not stick. Everything off topic was slipping from her mind as she approached, the dawn light washing over her pale body. With every step the fear that it was someone else faded and her pace quickened – stopping only when she was close enough to touch him. “Oh Aleksandr, are you real?” She asked even though she knew.
No caution (had he left first or had she?) as she bridged the gap between them with her nose, moving to brush against his neck in an affectionate greeting. Also to confirm that he was not a trick of this land.
She was different – less adorned with flowers than she had been in Nocturne – but they were the same emerald eyes that were bright with all the love she still had not confessed. She cannot even think of what to say or what to ask. How was he here? Where was Kostya? His twin was undoubtedly close but she couldn’t bring herself to check – just in case Aleksandr disappeared when she looked away.
The full weight of how much she had missed him was slamming into her now as tears began to cloud her vision.
