"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.

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.

She had journeyed further through the threshold, crossing creeks and carefully tumbling over fallen trees. The mission to entomb her dead sister had been lonely indeed, so the odd doe subconsiously longed for company.
"If this Helovia, Where Helovians?"
Her question was directed not only rhetorically at her own mind, but to each bird in the trees or every little mammal burrowed in their roots. It was almost a challenge in fact. Coincidentally, it was at that very moment that her audits captured hoofbeats among the birdsong. "Ah, Here helovians" Was Tuppences next smirk, turning her stained maw to face the approaching stranger. She made no attempt at all to further acknowledge the spotted doe; only gazed numbly at the mare through her own hazel sight givers. Studying her quickly Tuppence noticed that this does spotted coat was certainly not her most distinguishing feature. She was winged, these were not your average not bird-like pennons. These were the delicate wings similar to that of a butterfly, a whole kaleidoscope of colours making up their palette. "Hello Miss! Welcome to Helovia! My name is Myrrine, it's a pleasure to meet you!"
The line sounded almost rehearsed to Tuppence's slightly simpler ears. Would she to get a tour of the sights and attractions Helovia had to offer? But now her thoughts were turning unpleasant, and she always hated her ability to make an incredibly quick, assumed judgement of strangers. Tuppence had absolutely no clue on Helovias customs, or any other land for that matter. Softly turning on her haunches she paced towards the stranger. "Myrrine" She tried her best at pronouncing the faes name as she neared, then reached to the mares forhead and pressed her maw softly against the whorl in the center of her head in a kiss. It was the traditional greeting in the land she had travelled so far from, and she really didn't know any different. "I Tuppence" was her next deep murmur, her brown eyes now only inches from Myrrines.
Anothers hoofbeats filled the air and soon another doe was present among them, but that didn't stop Tuppence from gazing into the spotted faes intense hazel eyes. She heard the shatter of a birds beak, and that was just enough to pull her gaze to the newer stranger. There was something about this mare; She held herself more fiercely, more daringly then the pied girl. The Eagle that piped from a branch above sparked Tuppences curiosity, wishing to reach out and touch him; She had never seen one so close. This new stranger held a similar appearance to herself; Dark and exotic. She was beautiful, and for that Tuppence felt a challenge almost. “Gwaihir and I are always eager to meet new faces. I am Megaera, of the Dragon’s Throat.”
Her nares turned to the golden eagle once again, wishing to greet him with a kiss like she had the other speckled stranger. Instead she turned to the dark mare and stepped forwards, reaching up with her stained lips to kiss the whorl on his strangers head, hoping she would accept her introduction. "I Tuppence... From far away"
