"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 :: 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!

Ruske might not have possessed the same extroverted joy that Kahlua and Alysanne displayed upon greeting one another (and him, for that matter!) but he was nonetheless quite polite! But at the mention of a debt between him and those that were there, she just shook her head with a kind smile. “Oh no, there is no debt between us. Resplendence was the one that healed you. Your health and friendship is certainly enough.” Alysanne had only been one of the crowd, had only complicated things by getting in the way. Certainly there was no debt between them for that! If anything she should be apologizing further to him for not helping, maybe she could have taken some of the weight from Resplendence. But this may not be the best time for ‘maybe’ and the other worries that were popping up.
She was so incredibly delighted to hear that Aurelia was enjoying her move to the Edge. As the young, golden dappled mare spoke she mentioned a white mare that helped her recruit a new member – and in the same moment that Kahlua quietly mentioned the name, Alysanne did as well: “Brisa.” Her smile widening at the thought of their friend and as a result of thinking of her in unison.
And it seemed that she was not the only one with a new companion – Aurelia had a small, adorable little snake curled around her head. “She’s lovely!” Alysanne offers truthfully, wondering at how coincidental it was that both she and Aurelia would have found companions after their conversation with Ampere in the caves. Hemlock only buried himself deeper into his makeshift nest on her back to escape the sound of the voices, happy to be sheltered once more from her wings. Perhaps when he was older he would be more curious about the world.
Perhaps!
The others offer their responses to Kahlua’s question about the wall – and though all those present (except Kahlua) had become members of the Edge after the decision to built the wall had been made, they all had about the same answer. Just spoken in different ways.
Kahlua’s laugh was something Alysanne would never tire of hearing – she was certain that it would lighten any dark mood. And it certainly brushed aside the topic of the wall with ease. “Happier things indeed!” Just as she was sure that they had all experienced enough walls for some time, Alysanne was equally certain that happier topics were desperately needed for most of the population. The painted pegasus went with the first thing that came to her mind. “Do any of you know anything about baby birds?” She gestured with her head towards the spot where the sleeping Hemlock rested on her back. Maybe the topic of her companion would be more interesting to her than anyone else but she snatched the opportunity to think out loud. “I’m learning as I go, and though Nayati has been helping me with food I can’t help but worry! I was thinking of making him a little nest with some plants and feathers… maybe a couple! One I could keep on my back and one where we sleep.” The idea of making a nest probably sounded easier than it actually was – maybe someone would pipe up and tell her how ridiculous this plan was. “I was planning on looking for some soft materials in the woods if you guys want to give me a hand! It’s a wonderful day for a stroll with some company.”
Well, maybe this wasn’t the most exciting opportunity (especially for Ruske, she imagined) but it was an option! If no one was interested she’d keep an eye out the next time she went looking for herbs to help replenish the garden.
