"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!

It seemed like more than one from World's Edge had ventured to the Threshold this day. Heavily pregnant she may be, be that did not stop Solstice from wanting to wander. If Torasin knew of her walks outside of World's Edge, well she was not sure what the father to be would say. Surely from a healer point of view she needed to stay safe with in their own boarders. However she was restless with the news of an oncoming invasion to the Foothills. Her son, her beloved and only son lived there. The only comfort the painted lady had was that he had promised to send his bonded pup to her once the invasion had begun. Until the pup he called Alanna arrived Solstice tried not to worry. She did however try to stay in shape given the now larger than normal belly. Her belly was even larger than her last two pregnancies. Of course being a twin it made her wonder if it was possible for her to be carrying twins as well.
However all of this was pushed far from her mind as a warm TallSun wind brought her a familiar scent. It seemed there was more from her herd out in the Threshold today. Eagerly Solstice moved their way, her trot looking more like a waddle. She could not move very fast for long, as tiny hooves on the inside of her belly would begin to kick in protest. The golden and ivory mare found herself walking again very soon, but was thankful that it did not take her long to reach the others. It was a strange group that was for sure. Two unicorns, one she recognized as the Seer of World's Edge, a pegasus who also was from World's Edge, and two equine fillies. One filly was standing near the pegasus and left solstice to assume he was her father. Ah how lucky the little girl was to grow up with such a devoted father...
Quickly she shoved those thoughts aside as she caught the last of the conversation. It seemed one of the fillies was homeless, and the male unicorn had seemed intent on taking her out into the winds of Helovia. Hazel eyes flashed in his direction. Some males were so stupid. However it seemed lucky that not only the father and daughter pair but the Seer had happened upon the situation and were trying to bring the filly home to World's Edge. Even in her current state of pregnancy, Solstice was protective of those that she called family... and that included all who called the World's Edge their home. Without a word the golden fem moved to stand between the unicorn stallion who was so indecisive and those of her homeland. All children were safer with family, and that was something the World's Edge could provide that this loner could not. Perhaps you should put some thinking into your choices, before so hastily jumping from one choice to another. Hazel eyes were cold as stone as the mother looked at the male unicorn. However the moment she turned her head to face those of her home they softened in an instant. I do not believe I have formally met you all. I am Solstice, one of the Philosophers of World's Edge. She smiled warmly before turning back to the outcast once more as he did not carry the scent of any other herdland of him. Her eyes returned to that of stone as she spoke to him again. Before you think next time of taking a child into the wilds of Helovia, think of what is best for the child instead of your own loneliness. Her voice had the tone of a mother scolding her child, even if this stallion was not much younger than she was. In fact he should know better and if he did not he had some maturing to do.
