"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!

The Thief had visited the Rotunda throughout her stay in Helovia, through various points in her life. For some reason, she was always drawn to the beautiful marble columns and the way the stained glass cascaded colored light upon the ground and the world around her. So many things had happened here for her, each one vivid and just as bright as the stained glass’ creations. From when she first came across Rohan and he admired her in her naïve state of uncertainty to when she fought with the Prince of the Basin – a spar that inevitably left her in pain for many days and nights afterward, remembering how hard her shoulder had collided with the stone that made up the very building she loved; to when she met Alysanne and Ampere and they bickered and spoke of lost love. Oh, if only she knew how stupid and naïve she was all this time. To think that Tembovu didn’t love her was wrong, and despite how many arguments, harsh words and punishments, the Thief would always be drawn to the Elephant King like a moth was to flame.
And so she continued on, ashen dipped hooves carrying her ivory and gold body along the marble. Her hide twitching as it came in contact with the surprisingly cool feeling of the building as she sought out the steps. Her hooves clicked with the stone as she made her way into the very building that felt more like a recollection of her heart – something so beautiful, so strong, and yet so easily breakable. A soft sigh slipped past Rexanna as her oceanic gaze looked up to the colored fragments of glass, feeling the heat of Tallsun as it slipped across her back and glinted off the golden chains that lined her body from head to toe. It was times like these that she felt as though she was alone, her children off on their own way refusing to stay confined to the icy fortress of her home, nothing demanding her attention back home. It was a never ending cycle of wanted to be wanted, but never actually being needed. And the gilded mare was growing sick of it.
She flicked her dual toned tail against her ashen hocks as she lowered her head. Ears flickering as she heard the little pitter patter of paws as they skirted across the stone. Her companion Marembo had been out searching for food, returning ever so diligently to his bonded. She passed him a soft smile as he squeaked and skipped his way over to her, his stomach full and his eyes bright and blue with content. The polecat was much like his bonded, perhaps a bit inverted. The creature was much like a ferret, black with golden dapples and a white mask along his tiny weasel-like face. Rexanna thought she knew what unconditional love was before coming across the tiny egg the creature had hatched from – but she had been wrong all her life. Never did she experience so much love like the one her companion always gave her, and it was something that was at least worth living for. He made her happy when she was having her darkest days, and despite his small size he often did his best to protect her. He’d do anything for her, and likewise, she would for him. The Thief only hoped it never came to that point. "What did you get for lunch, Remy?" She asked him quietly, lowering her head to the floor of the structure so the polecat could climb his way up her face and onto her neck. In response, the polecat squeaked and sent flashes of the lizards he had caught nearby the Rotunda.
