"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 :: Broken Magic Plot ☼ - 8/30/13 - The earth god has returned and is walking across Helovia to heal the land. Every area can now be considered lush and prosperous, but the sun has still not risen.
☼ - 7/19/13 - The moon has risen in the sky, heralding the return of the Goddess of the moon. Lamp trees which light the paths have grown brighter, moon flowers which grow in dark places have begun to grow and prosper and the world is brighter, filled with a new hope.
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!

Aurelia Keep your head up, keep your heart strong.
"talk talk talk"
“A new opportunity. I haven’t had one of those in a long time, especially of this variety,” I smile at the red mare. "Variety can be good, Delly..." I pause for a moment, realizing I have given her a nickname. "If you don't mind me calling you that." My smile beams wider and my pearly white teeth become exposed. They are straight, with not one crooked tooth (except for one in the way back, but no one can see it, so why bring it up?). "I get the feeling of it all from your voice alone,” It pleases me to know that I have been able to be so honest that it spoke volumes in this mare. She honestly believes I am a good girl. Perhaps she is the first to think this, but I am happy to have someone on my side, a friend. I've had a good year of struggle, perhaps it's time to grow up.
"Might you lead the way?"
I nod my head softly to her. "We can fly, so it'll be faster. It would stink to have to be out in the dark. Plus, you'll want to see my home in the light, when the dew glistens on each leave and hugs each piece of bark. At night, you cannot see the vibrant greens of leaves and blue of the sky at night. Of course, some members of the World's Edge must prefer the dark over the light, but there is that type in every herd." I nod as I begin turning away from her. With a swoosh of my wings, and the subtle movement from walk to trot, I let her know we shall be on our way now. Just to make sure she understands I nicker at her. "C'mon! It'll be a fun fly over, and I finally get to stretch my wings!" With that, I bat my wings upon reaching a wider section in the path. I lift off into the air, hoping she'll follow me.
* * * After the Flight, in World's Edge * * *
I land when I start to see the familiar trees and the grey fog. Upon landing, I fold my wings neatly at my sides, not a feather out of place. My long mane is still holding the Earth God's feather in it's clutches... thank goodness. I would not want to disappoint the God by losing his feather. I begin speaking, hoping Delly has already landed. "This is the World's Edge, or what I like to call..." I pause for a moment before continuing. "Home."
ooc:; @[Delsolea] welcome to the World's Edge! You must be accepted by a higher ranked member, who will request the rank change for you! :D Glad you've decided to join us, and you have a lovely character! We can begin this as a new, regular thread, and the Tier II or Tier I member will hop in a little later! I suggest you read this! It's just the Herd Rules, but will be useful for you to know! <3
delsolea the static on your arm - it is the catalyst
Delsolea had never been given a nickname before. The pegasus tilted her head to look at Aurelia with a confused expression on her face, but it was gone as quickly as it had come. The moment she realised that it was just a shortened form of her name, she gave a little chuckle and turned her head away. It was nice being able to relax and be her normal, true self with Aurelia. It was something she was no longer accustomed to and she felt herself feeling a little out of place. It would pass in time.
She then listened intently to what she had to say, as she calls for her to come and to fly with her. Delsolea moved off with the other pegasus easily, longing for a chance to fly again. She had never flown much before truly, never wanting to as keenly, but she had never had the chance to fly with another either.
“I will be right behind you,” she says lightly, as she then shortened her own stride to fall behind Aurelia. She gave her the clearance to fly without her having to worry about where she might be. With one strong leap and a mighty downstroke of her wings, the maroon woman is airborne quickly and on the tail of her, headed to her new home.
Home. Perhaps it will be different to last time. She hoped so, very much.
The flight was a good one, giving her a good vantage point to view the world of Helovia, to see where she might want to try to visit, to be around others. With a little snort, she missed Aurelia’s descending path, too wrapped up in the sights.
Quickly adjusting herself though, she follows the other down to the earth. The World’s Edge unfolded beneath her, the forest growing tall and old, and right along the edge was the large cliff overlooking the great ocean. Delsolea saw the cliff only for a moment, then she was below the trees and landing, with a light touch of hoof and letting her wings fold to her sides.
The word she heard then was home. A home, and she wondered if it was even possible for her anymore.
“Home. I wonder if it will be for me as well, in time,” she says, then looks about. “Are there many others here?”
[ooc] Read and all <3 Many apologies for taking so long to do this, I had my exam and then my weeks off Uni waiting for results, some more bad things happened in family with an uncle in hospital in our town, but hes donig better and now I'm finally feeling more like posting again <33
The sound of wings had stirred Resplendence from her rest by the side of her herb garden. In fact, it stirred her enough to get her to quickly trot towards where the sound was coming from. She wasn't sure if she should be concerned, or if she should just keep moving. So, she decided to call for Valiance in a low whisper. And, as he wiggled his way out of the hole he used as a bed (though not for much longer as he was getting pretty big now), he gave a short grumble of distaste at this whole situation. Muffled speech reached her ears before she sent Valiance to the sky, awaiting the return of the mental images on who was here, at our borders.
What was returned was a mare she thought she'd seen before and one she definitely hadn't. So, she slid in tentatively. Limbs are cautiously moving and trying to make as little noise as possible. However, as the mare falls into the meeting all she can do is peep out a "hello", take in a deep breath, and wait for Valiance to curl up upon her withers. He lets out a warning hiss to the two near his bonded and fluffs up in an attempt to appear far larger than he was.
A few breaths in and Resplendence finally manages to find her voice. "I am Resplendence, one of the Moon Doctors here. May I be of assistance?" Still quiet, shy, meek. But, that was Res in a nutshell and she didn't suppose that would be changing anytime soon.
Aurelia Keep your head up, keep your heart strong.
"talk talk talk"
“Home. I wonder if it will be for me as well, in time. Are there many others here?” Immediately, my voice starts after hers finishes. I'm very eager to get her accepted. To prove my worth to the four-two K's. King Kaj, Kahlua, and I've changed queen to kueen so it'd be the for k's instead of the and a q. King Kaj, Kueen Kahlua. Suiting titles for them, in my opinion. "Perhaps it shall be called home soon." I pause for a moment and think about all the members in this herd. Quite a few, but I haven't met all of them. "In all honesty, I've met quite a few residing here, but I'm sure there are more. Plus, more get accepted every day. Like you." I offer a humble smile and add something else. "And we loooove new members. It's like another opportunity to gain a friend, if that makes sense." I giggle softly. Maybe I'm nervous that I'll fuck this up and she'll leave and no one will be impressed with me.
A mare joins us, and the first thing I notice is about her ears. Or lack of an ear, really. I don't see one ear. What happened to it? I wonder if she got really mad one day and tore it off in rage.... or maybe it's a new look. OR maybe she was fighting and a pegasus swooped above her and yanked it off and flew away. Her voice is gentle, like a rose. "I am Resplendence, one of the Moon Doctors here. May I be of assistance?"
"Hello, Resplendence! I'm Aurelia, and this is Delly.. orrr Delsolea. I'm an Acolyte Philosopher, and she is a mare I brought from the Threshold. She wants to join our home, hopefully?" I glance at the red mare. My eyes lingering for the approval of her. Her approval of my words. She wants to join, right? One of my audits flicks backward and the other forward as I wait for some sort of noise from either of them. It doesn't even have to be a noise... a gesture would be perfectly fine.
With a hiss, I see Shilva slithering out of the trees. I let my head drop to her as she decides to curl up in front of my legs. My whiskers sliding across her scales in a sort of greeting. Her beady eyes shut and she seems to fall asleep. I don't question the fact that she falls asleep so quickly. Nor do I question the fact that she somehow found me in this enormous land. It's as if she's connected to me and her brain is a tracking device. With a soft sigh, my head rises to it's previous location and I glance at my friends. Are they okay with having a snake around?
ooc:; @[Delsolea] <33 :\ i think i forgot about Shilva before? >.> lol, how embarrassing. I just added her in her now. XDD
