"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.

☼ - 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!

His father turned to him with always present kindness, never judging Cera for his questions. The words of comfort and wisdom never came, and instead a loud rumbling took place, the earth trembling beneath his hooves. At first he was scared, but one glance to seek understanding from Midas showed trust in this sudden change in events. Something eased the colt's temporary anxiety, a mixture of his trust in Midas and the bond he so desperately wanted to have with the one his father looked up to. Wide emeralds looked up in childish awe as a great stallion formed from the earth, shaking himself free of it as if it were nothing. Cera felt a mixture of respect and something close to fear at the power he had. But his eyes were kind and smoothed every worry from his mind, leaving instead a bright and adoring smile directed at the immortal. His words brought immense pride within his breast and caramel striped wings fluttered. "I hope! I wanna be like daddy!" The little colt wanted to be just like Midas, and hoped he too could find peace in prayer and worship to the Gods.
At the mention of that name falling from his own lips Cera turned slightly to see his father a few steps behind. Comforted both by his obvious closeness and the tender, robust nature of the God of the Earth, Cera turned back to the celestial being as if he was a close uncle. No longer as fearful with the peace on his father's face. Cera knew that he would never put him in danger, and recieved a similar vibe from the God. His words struck warmth into the patchy Pegasus, the fact that he wanted to know what Cera wanted being a noble and kindly gesture to the innocent foal. "Well...daddy is away sometimes and I get lonely..." tender face crinkling with sadness as he confided in the God. Feeling as if he were speaking only to him, a secret between the two of them. "But I love daddy! I don't want to be with the others. I want a friend that will always be with me, so I won't be lonely! And we can play and make things!" Previous sadness fading into excitement at the thought of such a creature. The other adults in the Throat were kind, but Cera was adamant in staying away from them. Midas was all he needed and wanted, and he feared their bond would weaken if he shared one with another adult. Only now realizing he didn't know if the God could produce such a perfect friend, wings shuffling in embarrassment and peering up at him with a little smile. "Can you help? Daddy says you can do lots of great things! But I know it is rude to ask for too much." Appearing proud that he remembered this lesson from Midas. One of many that he recited to try and live by his father's ways. Unaware of his incessant talking as Midas had never been impatient with his need to speak and make friends. And the Earth God seemed so friendly too!
OOC: Cera is asking for a Red Panda that can fly with him but is big enough to nurture and aid in his tinkering as his passion for crafting grows stronger. And my apologies if this post is a tad long or rambling!
