"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!

No problem, I worked out they were the Foothills anyway. :)
The bay knew he had asked quite a few questions and thus the silence that followed from the grey stud was not unexpected. The Spanish stallion bent his muscular neck downwards and rubbed his baroque shaped muzzle against one forward-placed leg, scratching at the newly healed scar on the inside. He could feel Terra growing tired of the equines beneath his fluffy form, his mind drifting - Garnock did not mind. He felt sure that Solace was a gentleman rather than a cold blooded mercenary that he'd mentioned about carefully before. As for Storm whom was still rather tense and uneasy, the stallion would keep his judgements on her and likewise of the young secretive filly whose name he was unsure of. Finally his ashen muzzle rose from his fetlock, ebon forelock once again overflowing across his line of sight. The stallion's gaze was drawn back to the more vocal of his acquaintances as his ivory lips parted in speech, his tone calm and unwavering. The bay didn't look at him, instead his gaze was off in the shadows of the forest as his mind too wavered with the silence. Although he sought not to be rude, therefore forcing his attention more fully to Solace as he looked to the bulky stallion. Garnock allowed a slight smile to curve his lips at the male's answer, taking a liking to his honesty. I can tell you're honest Solace. You don't over-speak of your herd yet you don't downplay it. The noble, deep tones rang forth, a hint of happiness tainting otherwise neutral chords.
He answered the following question in the similar tone as before and Garnock smiled at the answer. It told him exactly what his crowded mind wished to know, and as his long banner flicked idly against his dark hocks, the male mulled over the answers, his mind sifting through them in detail. He calmly examined the nuts and bolts of each answer Solace had given him before the relative stranger offered to answer any more questions the bay outcast might have. Tilting his skull upwards so that he could examine the ivorine faced brute closer, Garnock looked between the other ladies, ever so slightly confused by their silence. Perhaps they had no herd and wanted to only here of Solace's...but that was unlikely. Shaking his mane out, Garnock sighed quietly to himself as it parted madly over both sides of his thick neck. What could he do though? Focusing on the matter at hand, the stallion nodded to the grey stallion, one uncovered emerald hue gleaming at the prospect of a potential herd. I think the questions can be laid to rest for now - perhaps visiting the herd and your leader would be a good idea? Garnock offered the suggestion to see if Solace would take the bait and take him to the Foothills. He often found that the feeling emitted from a leader and the herd itself could write books on one herd rather than a member's words that'd simply fill one or two chapters.
