"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!

I chewed on the inside of my cheek until the metallic taste of blood slid across the back of my tongue as I tried to stop from giggling as the gold and white lunged to his feet, startled by my appearance and the disturbance of his nap. Electric blues shifted amusingly across his frame, taking in the pale green that lit up his white hairs like a neon light, and the bits of flowers and grass that clung to his sleep tangled tresses. A smile flittered across my ink stained features as I tried to catch his emerald gaze, wondering if he would recognize me once the initial shock of being woken up had faded.
It had been so long since I had seen the gold and white that I was nearly surprised by the stallion-like muscles that rippled beneath his two toned pelt as he lifted himself from the ground, where was the lanky colt that I had known so well as a child? Back then he had been nearly a brother, but now he was simply a memory, a friend. Pale wings shifted as I leaned back against a cocked hoof and tucked my feathered appendages in close to my body in feeble efforts to hide the womanly form that I had been cursed blessed with in the time since we had last actually spent time together. Cera had grown much, and grown well in our time apart. But the smile that lit up his boyish features brought me back down to a more comfortable level around him and his bonded. "Zenobia!" His deepened lyrics filled the air as the shock of waking up turned to an expression of joy and surprise as he realized who it was that had woken him from his peaceful slumber.
"You've grown so much," he smiles and I can't help but allow a big smile to stretch my inky lips as I take a couple steps forward to pull a flower from his tangled forlock. Realizing how much he had grown, how tall and broad he had gotten in contrast to my petite, girly shape. "You are the one who has grown! You are nearly as tall as some of the cactus that grow back home now! I hope you have been well." Before I could ramble on anymore his deep voice broke the air once more, stilling the thoughts of how much we had both changed in the past.
"How are you? Are you well?" Dark rimmed ears flicked forward as I listened to his deep voice, soaking in the gentle baritone that reminded me of simpler time when I wasn't the Wildfire's first born I was his only and ma and pa still cared about each other deeply. But things were different now and there wasn't much I could do about it other than keep smiling and doing my job. "I am well! Staying busy with random missions that da sends me on, how are you? Still in the Throat?" I nearly felt foolish asking about his home, but for all I knew he had met some stunning mare who had dragged him back to her home and there they had a beautiful family of their own.
"Speech."
