"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!

Cheveyo I went down, down, down as the flames went higher
I watched, amused as the brightly winged mare did as the purple antlered one told her and wandered carefully into the body of water that wasn't far from the clearing in which we had found the blue roan with the odd piece of metal hanging from in between his nostrils. Of course, I wasn't much of one to call anyone "odd" with the painted markings that were strewn across my already naturally painted frame. I drew some odd looks with the fact that I was a canvas both naturally and unnaturally, and I had only met one other so far who's frame was painted like mine. But from his shoulders sprouted massive black wings while antlers sprouted from his forehead much like the purple healer's.
It seemed that the bright bird took non-too kindly too my comment on her herd being a loony bin, but what else did she expect? "I have never heard of these other lands before, but I can tell you about my own. We are as secretive as our title suggests. We are as strong as we are productive. And we are as passionate as we are inviting. We are no loony bin. We are all perfectly capable, able-bodied citizens." My chestnut harks swiveled about as she spoke, the last part obviously pointed in my own direction as I allowed the corners of my rosy kissers to turn up in a grin. Maybe she was right, they could very well be able-bodied, but that didn't mean they were able-minded and clearly my comment had gotten under her skin.
It wasn't until the baffled stallion began to speak that I allowed the thrill of making the mare annoyed to subside ever so slightly. "My choice? I don't even know where anything is. You seem to know the most- no offence, ladies, Cheveyo? You think it'd be best if I go to World's Edge or Hidden Falls?" I smiled softly to the stallion as the healer took a step closer and began her rant on the Throat. She seemed a bit thrown off when I mentioned that Bellona came from a land full of loons, but that didn't stop her pressing the idea of living in the desert down the stallion's throat. I shook my skull slightly as my long blonde tail slapped gently at my ankles and my rosy kissers parted ever so slightly.
"I wish it were as easy as telling you which would be best for you brother...each of the herds is different in their own way." As I spoke I looked between the three of them, as if to show how each of us seemed to stand out a little differently than the other whether it be in looks or personality. I rolled my painted shoulders up into a shrug as I turned my orchid gaze back to the stallion. "I know that the Edge would welcome you with open hearts, and if you chose that it isn't the proper fit for you. You would be able to leave without any hard feelings." I smiled as I allowed that offer to hang in the air, surely he would take the open ended proposition over the binding arrangements that I was nearly certain that the other two would be offering.
"blah blah blah." Tag;; @[Bellona] Words;; 547 OOC;; Sorry it took me so long guys, was busy and then muse failed for a few days.
