"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.

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!

The mare once again let her curiosity lead her to places. She was surrounded by lush grass that were adorned with stunning mountains. The wind had built up once more causing her chain to dance around her neck and her loose strands to tickle her face. The frosty air had begun to fade, had the mare gone too far away from her new home already? Would her curiosity soon get her into trouble…again? She shook the thought out of her head, not wanting to overthink or stress about it. Her eyes wandered off, looking at the gorgeous surroundings. It wasn't warm, but warmer then everywhere else the mare had voyaged off to. This Helovia revealed its charming secrets more each day. Her stones sunk into the damp grass that only had a thin layer of snow covering it, a much different feel after walking in the Basin’s much more icy tundra for so long. She noticed the white flowers that quietly sat in the grass, dancing around in the breeze. It reminded her of the flowers once kept in her hair but soon had died and been snatched from her mane. The mare seemed to be alone in the foggy, vast meadow. Once again she had a deep desire for a companion, whether it be a friend, lover or another animal. She just wanted someone to fill the lonely void in her heart that was left by her brother. The mare let a quiet sigh escape her mouth, the white air quickly faded. Her muscles slightly ached, even though it was a short trek to reach the field. She took the silence of the land to give her some thinking or relaxing time.
"SPEAK!" | Tagged: | OOC: Sorry for this crap post, I'm just recycling an old one that the person didn't reply to. Anyoneee is welcomed to respond!
The mare's cream colored hooves struck the earth with soft thumps, scattering pebbles in all directions. The path up the mountain was becoming easier for her to traverse despite it's toils. She enjoyed the field that lay at the end of the path. It was solemn, but tranquil in it's somber tone. She felt safe there. Eden felt safe in the Basin as well, but it was inhabited by other horses as well. It's not as if she didn't love the Basin members, they were her family, but she needed to enjoy her own company sometimes.
With a final heave the light ashen mare sprang into the field. A dizzying sensation came about her, coursing through her veins in a single instant, but it was gone as soon as it came. She shook her head, deciding it was just fatigue or a need for oxygen. She shook a light layer of precipitation off her coat, a light breeze catching the tendrils of her mane as she did so. Her muscles were sore, but it was a good sore. The kind of sore that let you know you're getting in shape.
Eden's golden gaze surveyed the field as she took a few steps deeper into it's heart. A chocolate colored shape caught her eyes amidst the fog of the field. The mare took careful steps towards the horse, the snow crunching beneath her creamy hooves. The figure had pale spots on its rump, it's hair colored similarly. It was decorated with swirled horns and golden hoops. The horse intrigued Eden. She had never come across such a sight. Despite her yearning to be alone, the light ashen mare approached the unfamiliar figure. Her curiosity was stronger than that desire.
But..what would she say? She needed a conversation starter. The one that had worked best for the pale mare was getting her horn stuck in a tree, but this field had a definite lack of trees for her to get caught in. Eden bit her lip, her golden gaze flicking to her hooves, then back up to the stranger. She smiled, taking a deep breath before stating the only conversation starter that she could think of.
