"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?

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.
Cotm
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!

Like Icarus
Like John List
But they can't compare to the paradox of your title
Momma never got to teach you that physical similarities don't ensure happily ever afters
Don't confuse me with the voices in your head
Though it looks like you've had trouble hearing before
Like Icarus Species reference; Icarus is depicted to have had wings
Like John List
But they can't compare to the paradox of your title
Momma never got to teach you that physical similarities don't ensure happily ever afters History reference; her estranged/dead family members
Don't confuse me with the voices in your head
Though it looks like you've had trouble hearing before History reference; broken bond with Sitka
as changing as unforgiving as the wind, as bitter and chilling as the cold, as warm and deadly as the heat
I enjoy being tagged.
please do not feel pressured into mirroring the length of any of my posts I write what I feel at the time and hope everyone else does the same c:
Like Icarus Many defeats caused by pride like Icarus being too close to sun and not heeding warning.
But they can't compare to the paradox of your title Your title; has a LT.
Don't confuse me with the voices in your head Has a companion old enough to speak.
Like Icarus
Icarus is a symbol of failed ambition. He created false wings from real birds, but still failed to reach the heavens.
Could reference Reyniers ambition as an emissary of the gods, his taking the role of something other than what he is (a horse).
Like John List
John List committed several murders.
Could reference Reynier’s natural propensity for violence and/or the necessity of violence in his mission.
But they can't compare to the paradox of your title
Paradoxes are based on contradictions.
Reynier is an ordinary herbivorous horse, yet he kills in more abundance and with more viciousness than any predator.
Momma never got to teach you that physical similarities don't ensure happily ever afters
Don't confuse me with the voices in your head
Could reference Reyniers habit of conversing and interacting with his own shadow.
Though it looks like you've had trouble hearing before
Could reference the scar on his right shoulder.
He worries that it may be a previous punishment from the gods.
Like Icarus <-- foolish (icarus was foolish by not listening and flying to close to the sun)
Like John List <-- is a murderer (according to profile)
But they can't compare to the paradox of your title
Momma never got to teach you that physical similarities don't ensure happily ever afters <-- lost bother her mom and adopted mom
Don't confuse me with the voices in your head <-- hears voices
Though it looks like you've had trouble hearing before <-- wasn't able to hear her companion when she was a wraith.
** we still have three guesses xD
Let the heat of the sun
Reignite your memory
Because if we just turn and run
Let them fire the gun
❚ Force permitted, just don't kill her :3
❚ Please tag me!
❚ Pixel by Nyte
"Mother tells me I must be safe." And so Nymeria is safe.
Like John List Could allude to her predisposition to murder.
Momma never got to teach you that physical similarities don't ensure happily ever afters Has the same marking as her mother (skull mask.)
Don't confuse me with the voices in your head Has a companion.
Yes I lied, don't think about you all the time
All my switchblade words ain't aim to cut your sweet delusions
Like Icarus
Like John List -- Murderer, Archi has killed
But they can't compare to the paradox of your title
Momma never got to teach you that physical similarities don't ensure happily ever afters -- Mother was gray and so was his mate, both are dead
Don't confuse me with the voices in your head -- Bond with Loretta
Though it looks like you've had trouble hearing before -- Archi/Loretta were around for the companion blocking eclipse
Permission granted to use magic or physical force with Kahlua at any time
for any reason to any degree, with the exception of killing her.
Please do not tag Kahlua unless it is in an opening post
"You don't need to steal from us to get my attention again."
Gaucho blocks Meg
Like Icarus - History ref. burned while getting to close to the Heart, is also a Pegasus
Like John List - history ref. killed a family member and fled
But they can't compare to the paradox of your title - no LT but is refered to as the 'little warrior'
Momma never got to teach you that physical similarities don't ensure happily ever afters - mother abandoned her early, Meg favors her mothers build and appearance making her I'll suited for the cold climate
Don't confuse me with the voices in your head
Though it looks like you've had trouble hearing in the past
Please tag me in every post! Magic/Force is allowed on Gaucho at any time.
Like Icarus
Like John List Has witnessed a murder, and will undoubtedly kill when he's older
But they can't compare to the paradox of your title
Momma never got to teach you that physical similarities don't ensure happily ever afters Has face marking like mother, leg markings like father
Don't confuse me with the voices in your head Desires a dragon companion, and has ability to bond to 2
Though it looks like you've had trouble hearing before Can be closed-minded
[ 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 ]
Like Icarus Afica's wing was removed by Crash Course, Icarus lost his by flying "too close to the sun"
Like John List John List assumed another life after murdering his family; Africa came back to Helovia and assumed a new family with the Hidden Falls
But they can't compare to the paradox of your title Starry-Eyed:naively enthusiastic or idealistic; failing to recognize the practical realities of a situation; Africa has become more paranoid as of late and her profile says that she is now "wary and frigid at first"
Momma never got to teach you that physical similarities don't ensure happily ever afters She used to believe in the best of everyone but was proved wrong in visiting the Basin and quickly learned the truth about their racism
Don't confuse me with the voices in your head Her bond with Silas
Though it looks like you've had trouble hearing before
◄ Please tag Essetia in all replies! ◄ Force permitted, but no maiming or killing ◄ Pixel @ SongsOfInfinity
Sorry for the delay on revealing, had a party at my school!
Windwalker's Moon Amulet was sought!
Like Icarus --- Icarus escaped in place of his father with wax wings, only to fly too close to the sun and have them burn away. Windwalker tore his own wings off, fitting the old fable. This was a physical clue, not a personality one like some assumed
Like John List --- John List was a serial killer that murdered all of his family. Windwalker drove his family off a cliff to kill them all in his history
But they can't compare to the paradox of your title --- His name is "Windwalker" and yet he has no wings, which is a paradox as he can no longer "walk on the wind" or fly
Momma never got to teach you that physical similarities don't ensure happily ever afters --- I only included a relationship clue because it is stated very visibly on his profile. "He loved Africa, but ended up hurting her instead of showing her love." This is a complex clue. "Momma never got to teach you" implies his dead mother. His physical similarity with Africa is the fact they're both missing wings though hers is singular. Though he loved her it wasn't a happily ever after as stated by his profile which says "And then he ran away from everything"
Don't confuse me with the voices in your head --- Windwalker is a schizophrenic and heard voices in his head, particularly his dead brother
Though it looks like you've had trouble hearing before --- Has a deep notch in one of his ears, as stated by his profile. Ears are attributed to hearing. "Cuffing around the ears" for not listening but in an equine fashion is what I was thinking privately lol
::Strong like the sea is stormy::
Please only tag starting posts, spars, and threads collecting dust! Plot with me here!
Like Icarus
--- Icarus escaped in place of his father with wax wings, only to fly too close to the sun and have them burn away. Windwalker tore his own wings off, fitting the old fable. This was a physical clue, not a personality one like some assumed +1| Good job- a pegasus who doesn't have wings anymore. Excellent.
Like John List
--- John List was a serial killer that murdered all of his family. Windwalker drove his family off a cliff to kill them all in his history +1 History| Straight-forward enough
But they can't compare to the paradox of your title
--- His name is "Windwalker" and yet he has no wings, which is a paradox as he can no longer "walk on the wind" or fly +1 Name| Cool! Great clue!
Momma never got to teach you that physical similarities don't ensure happily ever afters
--- I only included a relationship clue because it is stated very visibly on his profile. "He loved Africa, but ended up hurting her instead of showing her love." This is a complex clue. "Momma never got to teach you" implies his dead mother. His physical similarity with Africa is the fact they're both missing wings though hers is singular. Though he loved her it wasn't a happily ever after as stated by his profile which says "And then he ran away from everything" +1 History| I like this one a lot. Great job!
Don't confuse me with the voices in your head
--- Windwalker is a schizophrenic and heard voices in his head, particularly his dead brother +1 Personality| Clear enough
Though it looks like you've had trouble hearing before
--- Has a deep notch in one of his ears, as stated by his profile. Ears are attributed to hearing. "Cuffing around the ears" for not listening but in an equine fashion is what I was thinking privately lol +0| Meh, a notch in his ear wouldn't particularly make him hard of hearing, but I can see how the clue was pointing to something to do with the ears, so I don't think it was particularly misleading
Like Icarus
--- Icarus escaped in place of his father with wax wings, only to fly too close to the sun and have them burn away. Windwalker tore his own wings off, fitting the old fable. This was a physical clue, not a personality one like some assumed
+1| Yep. I was looking for either fake wings, or wings that had been removed.
Like John List
--- John List was a serial killer that murdered all of his family. Windwalker drove his family off a cliff to kill them all in his history
+1| Yep! Awesome.
But they can't compare to the paradox of your title
--- His name is "Windwalker" and yet he has no wings, which is a paradox as he can no longer "walk on the wind" or fly
+1 | Definitely was thinking of a LT or a rank, so this is SUPER clever, because now that it's revealed, it makes perfect sense.
Momma never got to teach you that physical similarities don't ensure happily ever afters
--- I only included a relationship clue because it is stated very visibly on his profile. "He loved Africa, but ended up hurting her instead of showing her love." This is a complex clue. "Momma never got to teach you" implies his dead mother. His physical similarity with Africa is the fact they're both missing wings though hers is singular. Though he loved her it wasn't a happily ever after as stated by his profile which says "And then he ran away from everything" +1 | Very complex, but spot on!
Don't confuse me with the voices in your head
--- Windwalker is a schizophrenic and heard voices in his head, particularly his dead brother
+1 | Very clear.
Though it looks like you've had trouble hearing before
--- Has a deep notch in one of his ears, as stated by his profile. Ears are attributed to hearing. "Cuffing around the ears" for not listening but in an equine fashion is what I was thinking privately lol
-1 | Mmm.. this was super misleading. Having a notch in your ear doesn't in any way imply you have, or have had trouble hearing.
Like Icarus
--- Icarus escaped in place of his father with wax wings, only to fly too close to the sun and have them burn away. Windwalker tore his own wings off, fitting the old fable. This was a physical clue, not a personality one like some assumed +1| [Appearence ref] pretty easy peasy.
Like John List
--- John List was a serial killer that murdered all of his family. Windwalker drove his family off a cliff to kill them all in his history +1| [History ref] es bueno
But they can't compare to the paradox of your title
--- His name is "Windwalker" and yet he has no wings, which is a paradox as he can no longer "walk on the wind" or fly +1| [Name ref] love it!
Momma never got to teach you that physical similarities don't ensure happily ever afters
--- I only included a relationship clue because it is stated very visibly on his profile. "He loved Africa, but ended up hurting her instead of showing her love." This is a complex clue. "Momma never got to teach you" implies his dead mother. His physical similarity with Africa is the fact they're both missing wings though hers is singular. Though he loved her it wasn't a happily ever after as stated by his profile which says "And then he ran away from everything" 0| [Relationship ref] the clue itself was worded a bit confusingly to me, and didn't lead me to your result.
Don't confuse me with the voices in your head
--- Windwalker is a schizophrenic and heard voices in his head, particularly his dead brother +1| [Personality ref] yuppp
Though it looks like you've had trouble hearing before
--- Has a deep notch in one of his ears, as stated by his profile. Ears are attributed to hearing. "Cuffing around the ears" for not listening but in an equine fashion is what I was thinking privately lol 0| [Appearence ref] you already have an appearance ref that passed, and also although I definitely see how this points to his hurt ear, does he say that his hearing is worse because of it? Though I probably would have passed this one, since it would have clued me into ears enough. 4/3 necessary to pass
