"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!

His words continue to catch her off guard as their perpetual misunderstandings continue.
He seems to speak to her with such familiarity--to come and stand at her side and address her as he has--and yet she does not know him. Certainly she recalls having seen him at things; he is far too big of a presence to have missed him all together. But this?
Unless it's political.. she thinks, furrowing her brows slightly. Yes ... if he knows who she is and holds some sort of rank that she should be aware of, then he might well dispense for the formalities and jump into ... whatever it is he had on his mind. He asked if I trusted him...Idiot! Silently Isopia cursed her ignorance. Surely this had to do with the herds...he was asking broadly about what they all ought to do, not just what she thought.
His next comment seemed to solidify what she was already presuming to be true. Though she didn't know the language or meaning of the name he called her, she let it pass over her. She didn't know what language Czarina was either, though they sounded passably close to the same language ... Yes. Surely he is here in a political capacity.
With that leap improperly made, Isopia could only assume his next comment was in relation to her recent challenge of Alysanne and Tembovu. The Mountain's dark lashed fluttered softly as she closed them, taking a breath, and shaking her quad-horned skull ever so slightly. "I did what I thought I had to." She answered, her voice level, taking no notice of the softening of his own. After all, she was not one to notice such things. "And now it is over. It is done with and we can all move on." She was almost dismissive, not wanting to justify her actions any more than she already had.
She almost said, And I'm not sorry. I would do it again, but she refrained. Regardless of what herd this red-eyed stallion hailed from, she didn't need to make her situation any worse than it already was.
He accepted her offer to help clear, and although Hubris seemed noticeably less enthusiastic in his greeting than he normally would have been, the demi-goddess shrugged off his odd behavior, and walked with Volterra deeper into the Rotunda's expansive forests.
Meanwhile, Hubris had taken to the air and was wringing his hands in front of an incredibly anxious bronzey face. This was bad, very bad. He bit his tongue for every word Isopia said to Volterra, knowing full well what Volterra was asking, and wincing at how the stallion would likely understand the answer she had given him. It was clear that Vérzés was not getting through to his bonded, and Hubris was horrified to think what Volterra might do when he found out. He hadn't really fought Isopia last time ... but what would he do now? Would he still be able to hold himself back?
The dragonling swallowed hard, and continued to trail behind the duo.
"You see there?" Isopia said, casually, nodding ahead to where a number of trees had partially fallen over. They were held up by the others, but blocked out the sunlight causing a significant portion of the ground below to become moldy and rotten as water lingered on the surface of the ground. "Seems like a good place to begin."
