"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.

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 sheer brute appearance of the stallion does not faze me one bit. If anything,it only made adrenaline pump though me faster. It was sharp and quick against big and powerful. It would be a interesting spar to say the least and hopefully it would prove well for my quest,if he had magic that was useful anyway and if not at least it would be a it of practice. Still though,I wanted this to be worth the effort, especially with this heat I am having another battle with but,much to my delight,it wasn't just affecting me. The stallion's bay coat was covered in dark patches between his legs and his chest from sweat that was forming on him from the sun's unforgiving heat.
The brute's neck lowers as I leap aim my leap at is chest,which now turns out to be his head. I grin to myself,wondering what his reaction would be in my claws caught on of his eyes and although it doesn't (anyone I expect he shuts them to protect his blue orbs) A back claw catches the end of his muzzle and I suspect it was enough to cause even the slightest bit of blood. A feeling of slight success washes over me but soon it tumbles out of my system as I am chucked up and back by the stallions head as he throws me up. I scrap by the top of his antlers causing the slightest bit of pain as the blunt point scraps across my skin. But before I could think I am coming back down onto the stallions back as vapor pours out from behind. My jaw opens wide so that when I come down on his back (unless he moves of course) I can bite his fleshy back.
*I land on the ground to be greeted by heat on the pads on my paws. I quickly turn to be greeted by a wolf at least twice the size of me and it didn't look exactly 'real',more like a foggy substance in the form of a wolf. It lunges forward but I had already taken a snarling step back from the beast,a unknown feeling settling inside me that I was not used to. Fear. I was submerged like a ship in water by the emotion but it wasn't the only feeling. I need magic to be used upon me right? And this was some magical wolf thing.,that counts doesn't it? great. I needed it to touch me in some way,not matter what and so I take a step forward and feel the cold touch of a paw on my skin which immediately turns numb and cold. It was a strange feeling that nearly makes me miss the sight of hooves above me,Flicking round my tail brushes past the wolf behind,numb and coldness now in the tip of my tail as I dart under the stallion but I don't just dart,I leap,jaws flashing to grab the flesh under his chest.
