"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!

For the most part, Ghost still lingered in the shadows, except, it wasn’t for their simple company and instead she enjoyed the relief from the heat. The banshee’s biggest reservation about joining the Throat was exactly that; the heat. She longed to find a job, something, that would take her away for a few days if only to have a little respite. Yet, she knew, the more time she spent melting in the desert the more accustomed she would get and the less it would feel like being thrown into a furnace. Of course, she was exaggerating for the most part, it wasn’t that bad, but the grumbling and the moaning made her feel better somehow. Fantöme was also dishing out the looks, the grey wolf that much preferred the cold mountains and looked very much like a fish out of water. Ghost did worry about him from time to time, though he appeared to be coping for now and she knew the wolf was not one to simply give up. Even if his bonded friend sent him to the opposite end of the world from where he should be.
Today she stood under a rather impressive looking tree that stood in an oasis whilst Fantöme stretched out in the grass, taking a moment to rest before he ventured out once again. He did that a lot, venturing out and exploring everything that was new to him, the scents and the prey. Ghost had been doing something similar, though she flew to the canyons more often than not, surveying her new home from a greater height. It was a nuisance to keep in the skies however; the ever so handy pocket watch that could encase her in armour at will was also a demandingly heavy watch at that. She was building up muscles in areas that weren’t meant to have that much muscle and it put her in a surly mood whenever she thought about it. Ghost quite liked her slender body.
The sound of panting reached her sleek, black ears and the sprite cast her gaze down to her furry friend on the floor. It was past noon by now and increasingly becoming evening, it was hotter earlier, but the thick fur on the mutt’s body was keeping him warm for no reason. With a sigh, Ghost sent a trickle of her ice magic out and onto the floor under him in effort to cool him down. The wolf gave a content muff and rolled his long tongue out to lick the surface. God help him once Tallsun rolled around. It wasn't even that warm.
"What to do, what to do" Ghost hummed to herself, casting her gaze around to see if anyone else lingered nearby. She rather hoped someone did, the days of keeping her own company had become tedious and the Cadaverous found that she missed a good conversation.
@Einarr and anyone else who wants to have a go at a GLL cure!
the heat isn't that bad, but I'm currently melting in my apartment writing this so it may have leaked into my writing xDDD
