"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!

Kiri
Kiri looked at every minute detail around her. The tress all had new growth beginning in shades much more green and bronze than the older growth. Small pine needles peeking out from the ends of branches and small flat green leaves from the various broad leaf trees that grew in this area. A sudden movement in the trees just ahead of her caught her attention. A small fuzzy reddish rat thing with a massive fuzzy tail was leaping between trees making the most disturbing ruckus in and otherwise peaceful forest. Her head tilted in complete amusement of this small strange creature she had never seen before. Unfortunately, Kiri is young, she still has the mental capacity of a filly. On her island there are no squirrels. She quickly trotted a few paces to get a look at it. Greenish brown eyes opened wide as she watched it dance over branches and seemed to almost fly to the next tree but it had no wings. The biggest open mouthed grin burst across her lips as she nickered to this fuzzy friend.
It’s amazing how her panic can subside so quickly with something so small but for Kiri it doesn’t take much. Hello..
Upon hearing the deep male voice Kiri shot right back into her defensive mode. Her head dipped down, eyes narrowing as she looked in the origin of this voice. Long hairy lion like tail flicked and curled like that of a lizard when it is suddenly surprised. The stallion was blanketed in the shadows of the early morning peeking out through the trees. She could see feathers of various hues like the Circinae bird. His feathers were better though. It’s his wings that awed her. Separating from the males side she could not help but get a stupid look of astonishment on her face. Raising her head again and staring at him through curious eyes as she replied in a tongue like his own.
Ke! Do those wings work? Many wings on my island do not.
Kiri snorted for she doubted that something so pretty can fly. All the pretty birds don’t fly on her island. Her mind finally snapped back to reality and her body went cold. Stupid flying fluffy thing had distracted her.
You! Feathered man! Have you seen anyone else run by? I have lost my family in the woods!
Kiri trotted towards the male for she really hated to shout. Stopping a comfortable distance away she stared right at him. Kiri’s long tail flicked back and forth similar to that of an animal showing enjoyment. She doesn’t even realize it as she tilts her head and eyes him up and down. Maybe he knows what the fluffy thing was! Kiri! Stop! Where is your family? Her internal dialogue tried to keep her on track.
