"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!

I've got all the baggage,
And drank the pills,
Yeah this is living,
Without the will

The day was young and the sun had not yet reached his throne upon the blue horizon to watch the antics of the mortals below. Warm was the gentle sea breeze that brought in scents of salt mixed with that of a horse and his dragon. A leathery wing drifted downwards and speared the ocean to create a spray of water which left trails of white wherever the brown went. He trilled in glee as he felt the wonders of flight and the open space, no trees to swoop round and the scenery was splendid. Kiba truly did like days out to the beach, he remembered clearly the water fight he had with his motherly Queen Akaith. They had played all through sunset and the brown dragon dearly wished they could play like that again. No matter how old he became the dragon would always have a child's heart and Torasin loved him for it.
The palomino paint was only just making his way onto the sandy beach, his bonded having flown ahead in his barely contained excitement. Though Torasin didn't like to leave the herd much, such was the importance of his duties, he did have to take a holiday someday or another. Otherwise he himself would become ill and be of no use to anybody whatsoever. He also needed some time to think, his mind had been plagued with doubts and fears for days and he thought that the sea air might do him some good. The gentle Doctor also had many memories tied with the sunny beach, most of them consisted of Mirage like nearly all of his memories. He smiled at that thought, he would not be the stallion he was today without Mirage, their relationship would seem a complicated one to anybody on the outside, but Torasin knew they both shared a common love for each other and that in itself was enough.
He quickly picked his gait up into a trot and powered on towards the lapping sea, emerald eyes growing distant as if caught in an old story. Within the tale was a mare of painted heritage, her body patched in white and seal brown, her personality like a double edged knife. She was mean, ill tempered and highly impatient, but he was gentle, considerate and caring. A match made in hell but Torasin liked to think they completed each other, him and the fiery Brooke. Yet fate was cruel and took her away too young with no explanation, he would never know how she died and all he had left of her were two sons who had seen their mother's corpse. No child should have to see that. Was it his fault Brooke had died? He hadn't been there to protect her or to heal her. Had she died peacefully or in agony? Each thought was like someone striking him in the heart.
Hooves left the sand and entered the glittering ocean, his pace slowing to a steady walk as he moved through the soft waves. By then his thoughts had raced on to his more recent struggle. Solstice. The beautiful mare who had been in his life for a very long time. First when they were of the same herd in the Oasis and now here in Helovia, the seeds of their friendship had blossomed into love. Yet Torasin couldn't shake the foreboding that he was somehow cursed, that he had been unable to save his two previous lovers and both had perished was the damning fact that he was never meant to be happy. Was this the same fate that now lay before Solstice? Had he put her life in danger? All he wanted to do was love and protect her, he prayed every night that her life not be taken. That this area of haven would always remain. For if Solstice was taken from him then Torasin knew the even more damning truth that it would be the end of him.
A great sigh left his velvet lips and Kiba landed upon his rump, flicking droplets of water from his spike ridden tail. The healer turned to regard his friend and smiled gratefully.
My friend I am glad to have you by my side.
I will never leave your side
Torasin's smile widened at his bonded's reply before he turned to look out across the sparkling sea.
