"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!

What if God was One of us
Tears swelled in the child’s violet eyes, feelings crushed as she had turned away from the God of the Sun, as his liquid fire pooled her attempt to aid his request. 'You ask someone to help you, and when they try to spit liquid fire at their attempt, so disrespectful!' Her mind thundered in anger, a single tear streaking down dusted cheeks from angry narrowed eyes. It wasn’t the fact that she had lost, nor won- it was the sorry grace from a golden god who himself was not worthy of her presence. And it was her brother, chosen to stay to bask in the light of the lord. This was irritating, she had tried twice and been nothing but defeated. There was nothing worse than feeling alone in the world, left in abandonment only to be scooped up into the arms of a stranger and her kids.
In her aimless wandering, she paid no attention to where she was headed, nor did she really care at the moment. She was throwing a tantrum; her feelings were hurt, her heart broken, feeling alone and lost as she continued to walk along the lush green grass that sprouted at her feet. 'I’m a failure.' She cried within, violet eyes clenching shut over run with emotion. 'I was not worthy.' Cream flints moved along the changing terrain, her mind trying to focus on other things. Day dreaming in and out of her twin brother and her parents that one solace week they spend together.
How she missed them, how guilty she felt she didn’t take off after them as they were dragged away into oblivion. Maybe, they didn’t want her. No one else seemed too, is that why they had left her alone? Dual toned tiara shook in disbelief, 'Daddy said he’d be back for me.' She assured herself, eyes glancing upon the ground, as the surface slowly faded from soft green to a grainy white. A roar in the distance, liquid- and lots of it; distracted for a moment her tiny cranium lifted nostrils breathing in the salty water substance with curiosity. Never had she seen anything like it; then again there are many things she has not seen. Taking a deep breath, she worked up the courage to walk out upon the sandy beach and into the open. No one else was around, and these strange creatures scurried along the sandy surface.
"Hey!" She bleated out in a girly muffle as she eyeballed one of the red many legged creatures bump into her hoof. Staggering away, she lowered her plush muzzle to get a closer look at the alien creature. "Why you have so many legs? You only need four!" Of course, because naturally everything was compared to herself, or her kind; and she had never seen an eight legged horse wandering around. "You must be an Aliem!" She spoke with sudden joy, of having found such a creature. Dancing around it for a moment, she soon left it be as she gazed to the flock of white birds above; their cries rather annoying. Lobes shook, as she turned to gaze upon the rolling waters. Her mind blown at such a large body of water; She just had to touch it..
Prancing forth, ivory limbs struck the salty white wash as it rolled up the beach weaving around her hooves as they sank in the sand. She had seen water before; but none this vast and open- none this blue and smelly. Thirsty from her journey, she lowered her lips to the surface, doing her best to disregard the smell as her tiny pink tongue dipped into the water eager for a drink.
Violet eyes shot open, frozen in a shocked state her head retracted in a swift elevated motion against the sky as the rest of her body followed into a half rear; hooves striking out against the liquid substance."EWWWWWWWWWW!!" She shouted, shaking her head protruding her tongue in and out of enclosed lips to rid of the horrible taste. This wasn’t any sort of water she had tasted before, it was horrible, disgusting; way to much salt. Gazing around her feet, she watched as the sands crumbs glittered with the suns reflection. It was beautiful- in a nasty sort of way.
