"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!

Jorogumo The hurt the head forgets, The heart will always remember
What walked the cold soil of the Basin was but a mere figment of what once was a bright and solemn child. Her very being had been consumed and distorted by darkness, and the foul monster had already infected others. It was time to head home and greet her ‘family.’ The ones that didn’t come when she screamed. The ones that left her when the darkness came. The ones that wouldn’t even reach out and let her grow bored. So, the black widow came with a sheer need for the flesh of the crowned. Let the others taste of the liberation. The spider child no longer feared anything or anyone. All that she wanted was the sweet taste of flesh upon her tongue.
She appeared in a cloud of black vapors. The child swiveled her ears against her skull and a wicked smile passed over her lips. Voices, and one of them was familiar One minute she was at the border, the next she appeared in front the trio. First her gaze drifted over to Kisaki. The temptation to rip her flesh was growing inside of her, but that ghost of her former self lingered. There was still a bit of her true self trapped inside the polluted mess. “Kisaki…” For a moment her old self came through. “YOU LEFT ME ALONE! BECAUSE OF YOU I GREW LONELY AND LEFT THE BASIN! I BECAME THIS BECAUSE YOU’RE JUST LIKE EVERY OTHER ADULT!” These twisted words were both the monster and the true heart of the child, but fueled by the hatred of the living by the wrath. “I WAS CONSUMED BY THE EVIL, AND NO ONE EVEN BOTHERED TO LOOK FOR ME!!”
For a moment she was heading toward the golden mare, but something flickered in her gaze. All that admiration she felt toward the queen hit her. Her eyes flickered over toward the stallion with markings of blood. Without any hesitation, the child evaporated into a cloud of black and appeared before the stallion. She grasped his neck and jerked her head about in a canine manner. The force was supernatural and beyond any strength a child could have. She then jerked her head back, and hoped to take with her a good chunk of flesh. As the blood dripped down her decaying face, she moved herself a step away to get a good look at her work. It was such good fun to witness the mortals being completely consumed by death’s sickness.
“Everything has an end,” Jorgumo said with sheer glee, “And your light is ending. Soon you’ll be just like me.” A fit of giggles and the legs at her side twitched about. “Sun comes up, we live and we cry, sun goes down… Then we all die.” The filly pranced about in a circle, and once she watched the red maned stallion shift she would begin her games with the others.
