"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!

The glue that tentatively held the fissure that the pale mare had caused so many seasons ago was not so strong that their bond was impenetrable. Even now, even after he had forgiven Ophelia - a gesture that not many received from the God - he felt the cracks in his heart shift, grinding away into dust the binds of her exoneration. That in her thoughts he now found the presence of another, one who surely could never rival the God of the Sun, and yet when it came to airtime in Ophelia's mind, was pulling ahead. And quickly. It might be nothing but ... then again Ophelia had come here under the guise of moonlight. Perhaps it was to accentuate the way her coat - adorned with silver and the sheen of the stars glimmered in the pale light, or perhaps it was to emphasize that the God's light could triumph even the darkness. Perhaps she wanted to ensure the two were alone ... but perhaps she wanted to ensure they were not seen.
But the God would accuse Ophelia of nothing. Although the words would never be spoken, he too was fearful that Ophelia would somehow force him to relinquish his adoration for her. It would be her doing of course, for the blame could never fall with him. He was a God, and she was just ... just Ophelia. But she was his Ophelia.
A small spark flickered in mid air, casting light upon the ground and illuminating the vibrant grasses. It was quickly followed by another, and then another! as if some invisible firework was noiselessly exploding before her. These sparks did not fall to the ground however, but began to swell and brighten. Flames licked outwards from the light, gently wrapping themselves around the molten form of the God. His body burned perhaps more vibrantly in these midnight hours
"Ophelia." He greeted her warmly. The flowers she had brought for him so long ago still blossomed as if only placed in his mane yesterday; still fresh and vibrant. His muzzle extended outwards towards her shoulder without hesitation, to touch the softness of the flesh there. The God was surprised to find more muscle beneath her pristine coat than he had remembered. Was his memory faulty? Or had she grown stronger since last they had met?
"Whether or not your efforts are worthy and whether or not you are worthy are two different questions." He mused, perhaps trying to get a rise out of her mind - one that he knew intimately to be complex and wise. "Are your efforts worthy enough to grant the power you seek?" His burning gaze flashes with adoration and temptation as he nodded decisively. "Yes. But are you worthy? Worthy of what Ophelia? You who have bore the child of a God-" (his teeth visibly clicked as he said this. Clearly he underestimated the anger that would rise at the mention of what the God of Time had done to her. In that small regard, perhaps he and Torleik could find common ground) "- and have lead herds in the past and continue to lead one now. You are bonded to a royal soul and when you leave here you shall do so with more power than when you came." His voice had become much softer and warmer as he spoke, dispelling the irritation thoughts of Roskuld and her conception brought.
