"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!

VADIM
all i see turns to brown as the sun burns the ground and my eyes fill with sand as i scan this wasted land
He only listens as his sister speaks the name of her daughter then proceeds to answer the question he had posed to her moments before. He doesn't understand why she would think her daughter would be better off with a different family. Even with as screwed up as their family is he doesn't think he would be any better off, but maybe that was his lack of self confidence that was leading him to believe that. He is confused at her reasoning because he and Varath had left their parents shortly after being weaned and their parents had not stayed in the same herd. "Mother did the same thing." He finally points out, brow furrowing as he stares at his sister in confusion. "You don't want to be like mother?" He did not spend a lot of time with their mother after leaving the nest, but he still loves her and thinks she is the best.
He takes note of Ophelia's reaction as Valsi changes her shape. He thinks that the look on her face must have mirrored the look on his the first time he saw Vlasi change. Vadim is not sure if Ophelia is correct about Vlasi being powerful because she has only demonstrated her ability to defecate on individuals that annoy her. Like himself. "No." He answers when he is asked if he can hear her thoughts. The idea of hearing her thoughts, of her living more intimately inside his head is rather frightening to the young stallion. "Her feelings, yes." He answers and looks down as his sister's dragon lands in the grass.
Vlasi lifts her head and looks at the dragon who now sits and listens to his bonded speak of how she acquired him. Slowly, the white feline uncurls her fluffy body from around Vadim's leg and inches toward Tinek. Her body is kept in a crouch and when she is close enough she stops and stares hard at the large reptile. One paw is lifted and she slowly reaches toward him, her confidence increasing with each passing second. She stretches and taps at the dragon's nose then turns and scurries to hide behind Vadim's right foreleg. She is still for a moment then peeks her head out, blinking brilliant emerald eyes at Tinek.
Vadim's head tilts when Ophelia says his other sister's name, remembering only that Varath said she looked like their father and that he didn't like her. He thinks that if she is willing to give away such an extraordinary creature that she can't be as bad as Varath had claimed her to be."What is she like?" He blurts out his question at the same time Ophelia asks Vlasi's age. "One season." He answers. "I found her in the caves when the world went dark."
