Hey everyone!
We know that saying goodbye to Helovia is a sad time for everyone and that many of us wanting to continue writing the characters whose lives are based in Helovia.

Thus, Neo and I have partnered to create a sequel site for Helovia that will be based in the Rift! At Helovia’s final SWP, Kaos will open a Portal to the Rift, and those who wish may transfer over at that point.

Brief Premise: Originally, the Rift was a beautiful and light place created by magic’s powerful force to inhabit and exist within living creatures and land. However, eventually the gods that were created out of this land grew greedy and corrupt, causing light to fade and shadows to take over. In this dark and wild land, only an eerie neon light was left that leaches light and magic from everything around it.
So corrupt were the gods that the mortal inhabitants of the Rift looked and prayed for help, finding and bringing Helovia’s god to save them. However, the Helovians gods stole away the hearts of the Rift, leaving it broken and riddled with ominous forces; Helovians and gods alike killed the Riftian gods that had the ability to control such forces.
Now, in the wake of total deicide, only Kaos reigns.
(Here is some Rift inspiration and here are some creature ideas to look forward to!)

If you have any questions about this new site (or any ideas that you'd love to see), don’t hesitate to post below or contact myself/Neo!

Note: We are wary of forcing changes on your characters! However, we want to lend a creative realism to this new site—the Rift is filled with a magical sickness, dangers, and darkness, so all magic is bound to be affected! BUT questing/seeking fixes will be very available in the Rift!
The light—it was dying.

It faded from the very skies that once shimmered with energy. Once tall, lush grasses were now shriveled and blackened with greed. Water, once so sweet, now darkened with depravity. A sun that once bathed all in warmth, now scalded what it touched and left the world frigid when bereft of its presence.

It was corruption. Corruption of gods. Their greed sundered the land. Their greed leeched the light from the sun, leaving only an ominous and gluttonous florescence in the earth to light this world. A shadowed place - where nothing was safe.

The Gods are gone now, though, killed on foreign shores; as if deicide could somehow heal how they had wronged the Rift.

But the death of Gods did not prove who was right; only who is left. And this land is far from healed.

Transfer Information:
[updated 6/26]
- Characters : There will be a 5 character cap in the new site.

- Magic : This will be affected by passing through the Portal! All Helovian characters will receive 1 ‘Magic Pass’ that allows you to choose a magic to remain ‘safe’ in the passage. All other magics will either be kept, lost, or mutated (decided by the roll of a die). You may opt for a neon marking to appear on your character if their magics are mutated/lost!

- Enchanted items : The enchantments of items will be affected like magic will be! All Helovian characters will receive 1 ‘Item Pass’ that allows you to choose an item to remain ‘safe’ in the passage. All other enchantments will kept, lost, or mutated (decided by the roll of a die). You may opt for a neon marking to appear on the item if they are mutated/lost.

- Prizelists : These will not be transferring onto the new site. So use them as you see fit!

- Amulets : Will not transfer over, but will affect your character in transfer >;D

- Regular Items : Will transfer over; there will be no 'item cap,' in the Rift but having a lot of items will affect gameplay! ;)

- Companions : They will be be made ill with a “Portal Sickness” that can affect them however you’d like (i.e. silencing bonds, physically ill, etc). However, this will resolve shortly in the Rift!
You may only have 1 companion in the Rift. Those already with 2nd companions will have a way to 'earn back' a second companion over an allotted time period, BUT must choose one companion to become 'wild' and un-bonded until earned back. "2nd companion slot mutations" must be filled with a companion to be grandfathered in.
Companion magic will be stripped- but don't despair! It will be re-vamped and you will be able to re-earn it in the Rift!

- Character alterations : Your characters are allowed to have appearance alterations during the passage through the Portal to the Rift!

- LTs : These will not be transferring into the Rift.

- Species :
(1) Horns may only be retained by unicorns, so 'horn items' will be lost; we understand if horn(s) are integral to designs, and there will be an option to become 'hybrid' during transfer if this is the case (hybrids will be mostly infertile).
(2) Wings may only be retained by pegasus
(3) There will be no 'gliding rule' pertaining to transformations

- Tables/images : We will host Helovia as a database, so posts/profiles will be viewable! But we cannot host images uploaded to Helovia's server, so please save your images!
