"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!

Her cry startled the black, and he twitched but froze into place as she wished, eyes wide. The look of fear and distrust on her face... It was fitting. Did she know him? His gaze focused to her shoulders. No...she couldn't. She bore no wings or scars from missing wings. She was no pegasus. The realization that no, her fear was not borne out of knowledge but rather the lack of it relieved the black, and he dipped his head to her. The arrival of another winged one caught Bucephalus's attention, and he blinked at the sight of a horn gracing her brow. Gaucho had previously been the only one he'd met that was both winged and horned, and the black believed him a freak of nature. This mare just broke that conclusion. Intriguing.
"Pardons for my forwardness." He said back to the first equine, wings tucked tight against his back, warding off the chill. The black one spoke, introducing herself as Rhea and moving her muzzle in a traditional sign of greeting to the skittish one. But the latter shied away. She certainly was a...rabbit-ish one. Then she introduced herself. Ayleid... it was a name unfamiliar to the black, as were all the names in Helovia. They had such queer names.
Realizing his thoughts were wandering, and that Ayleid had asked a question, he spoke up. "You've strayed into Helovia, into a place known as the Threshold. It is where newcomers enter to join a herd or roam alone." He said, gesturing to himself and Rhea at his last sentence. "That is...a healthy fear. Sadly, no place is free of deceit, but from my experience, most of Helovia appears to be decent." Of course, he'd only sampled from the personalities from some of the herds, but it was enough for him to settle that the fouler folk were outcasts. Or so he hoped.
"I have come to try and recruit members to Dragon's Throat, as i suspect Rhea has as well. I can give you more information about my herd, if you desire. But your choice is entirely yours from here on out on where you go. You can go with me, or with Rhea, or go your own way and examine all the other herds at your own pace." He said, dipping his head to her before falling silent, gaze mildly puzzled. He still wondered why she had been so..distraught. His mind flashed to his own experience crossing into Helovia, of the shock of the silence, the terror and despair and grief. It seemed this place stripped one of what one had before in another land. It seemed...cruel.
