"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.
Site Wide Plots
Kaos :: The Beginning of the End ☼ - 6/2017 - Kaos placed Helovia in a time-bubble for a short period of time, but the Helovian gods are fighting back. But Kaos is powerful- far more powerful than anyone thought. This may be the beginning of the end of Helovia as we know it.
Kisamoa :: A New Kind of Kaos ☼ - 3/2017 - Kisamoa asks Helovians to help him restore the Spectral Marsh. Which side will you choose?
Invasions :: All Out War ☼ - 5/2/16 - New layout and the brand new invasion rules are up! Thank you for your patience and we look forward to getting started with this new adventure.
The Rift :: Gods Do Die ☼ - 8/2015 - Helovia Gods are saving the Rift from corrupt gods! Can Helovians band together against these foreign deities?
The Literal Ship ☼ - 2/8/15 - Oh no! You have to pair up for Valentine's day!
Sky Island :: Murder ☼ - 10/25/14 - Vesta has been found dead on the island, and the gods have called to you to solve the murder!
Sky Island :: Peace ☼ - 7/7/14 - An island has appeared in the sky! Clouds carry Helovians from the Veins to the sky.
Restoration :: We Welcome the Dawn ☼ - 9/21/13 - The sun has finally risen on this day, giving the land new light, but the Time God and the Sun God have yet to be seen.
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!

Thor & Evangeline
Well, as many of you know, Thor and Evangeline have hit it off recently and since we both wanted a foal from the match, we decided to use twin stats. I can't speak for Ali but this last foal will most likely be my last character. However, I can speak for both of us when I say that we want these characters to be well thought-out.
We both decided (after pouring over numerous designs on DA and the like) that we wanted to run a contest ending on Valentine's day (how sweet xD) for twin designs. But don't worry! We have an amazing plan for the winners (since we don't have a lot to offer concerning Helovian items). First and second place winners (since there are two foals) will each be rewarded with a surprise manip.
In the case that two separate desgins are chosen, each creator will receive a manip and in the case that only one design for both (should you decide to give both a shot) should win, the creator will receive two manips.
Our chosen artists will be revealed in the midst of the contest and a little closer to the end-date. Now on to the foals!
Last night while helping Roni, I came across a really good idea. I made sure to alter it so that I wouldn't interfere with her motivation, hence the theme: Archangels & Guardian Angels. Our twins will consist of one male and one female.
Uriel the Archangel of Salvation [Male] "The Archangel Uriel is one of the seven Archangels that stand at the throne of the God Creator and one of the four major Archangels that serve humanity. Uriel rules the mental plane, our thoughts and ideas, creativity, insights, judgment, magic, alchemy, astrology, universal consciousness, divine order, the distribution of power, the cosmic universal flow and the Earth's environment. Uriel is humanity's link to the spiritual realms and he can show us how to find our inner power through a process that will help each individual Shift in consciousness and therefore accelerate the entire human kingdom's shift into higher realms of consciousness."
■ I have no design specifics other than I want a few unnatural markings
■ I would prefer a dark colored horse (but am not against lighter deviations)
■ Would prefer for him to be VERY mildly draft-like with a bit of feathering around the hooves
■ He's a hybrid EquiPeg (using Ali's Hybrid stats)
■ Beard would be nice
■ No loin tail
EDIT: ■ Braids are cool, very cool
Sariel the Angel of Guidance/Death [Female] " Also known as angel of death Sariel works alongside of Raguel. Sariel is a seraph who is given the role of deciding the fate of angels, which stray from God’s path. He is also credited as being an angel of guidance and knowledge, and one of the leaders in Heaven’s armies, his name being written upon the shields of one of the fighting forces. He is responsible for the lot of angels that violate God’s sacred ordinances. Sariel is considered the prince of presence and an angel of healing." [Clearly we switched the gender roles]
■ Ali wants markings as well (plenty of pretty fanciful mare markings)
■ Also an EquiPeg she wants the wings to have white feathers in the mix
■ A bit of feathering around the hooves/on legs but not a ton
■ Lion tails are accepted, but not preferred
■ Also braids
This will end on February 14, 2015 so everyone has plenty of time to debate. And a huge thanks in advance to anyone who participates! If there are any questions, please post below or PM Ali or I via Thor and/or Evangeline.
Silver Blood Bay w. white points on knees and ear tips. Wings start white and fade to dark brown (almost black). Eyes are half hazel, half brown. White marking on face forms an X when viewed from front.
Wild Bay w. two stockings, one sock, one cornet, and a large snip. Mane and tail have frosted tips, and a wing mark on the left tip. Hazel & green eyes.
Silver Bay w. splash paint markings. Green eyes, white cross marking on face.
Just for a random question for future references (as I may participate)..
Do you and ali prefer the babies to resemble the parents in some manor or do we go all out on this? :)
- I'm very forgetful sometimes, so please tag me in all posts related to Mal, if that doesn't work.. feel free to PM this account.
- Magic allowed, just no killing, harming, etc. without my permission.
We're trying not to stray too far from possible parental genetics but SOME deviant designs are accepted because we have the hybrid and foal stats to accommodate them.
Run towards the stars, or make them shine. Fight the tide, until the day we die.
▌ Please tag Atlas in all replies
▌ Force permitted, but no maiming or killing

I tried, even though I don't usually tend to do designs. Instead of giving them wings (since Thor always had really small wings that wouldn't let him fly anyways) I had them grow feathers in other places ;3
Sariel - Blood bay with white facial markings (like a gladiator mask) and some leg markings; gold eyes; feathers instead of a mane, some white ones strewn throughout (couldn't draw them |: so imagine them in the height pattern of the red lines it forms a mohawk) and has feathers like shoulder pads where the wing joint would have connected to the shoulders. There are also tail feathers, and braids in the tail (too lazy to draw those in). Light feathering on all four hooves; black tail that fades to the bloody colour of pelt at the ends
Uriel - liver chestnut with white facial markings (white taking over right side of face which isn't shown, and curling over to the other side) and some leg markings; blue eyes (right is light blue and left is dark blue); feathers instead of mane with white feathers near the poll rest are a reddish-black; feathers at wing joints like shoulder pads; tail feathers that are white; braids in tail; beard; light feathering; flaxen tail colour
❂
What are you afraid of? 'Cause it can't be that bad
Being friends, beneficial ties
They're basically inverted versions of each other, kinda, on different base colors.
Uriel - Dark bay, ermine dots, blaze with inverted star, golden eyes. Dark brown wings with black tips.
Sariel - Mealy bay, sock with inverted ermine dots, star, green eyes. Lighter brown wings with cream tips.
A baby for Linds! I'm working on the female foal for Ali as well. ^^
You can't see some of my writing on the image (it's the same color as the darn layout e.o) but the purple wing is the underside and the gray is the top side.
Dark dun complete with leg barring. Dark feathers on tips of wings. Light feathering around feet, nothing too extreme. Two coronets on front legs. Right eye orange, left eye blue, with 'angel wing' white marking on face.
Female: COMING
[ you can't stray from what you are, you're the closest thing to hell i've seen so far ] [ use of force/magic on him is permitted aside from death/maiming ]
