"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!

Such bravery impassions your heart. Personality reference: Straight from her profile: Iona is brave and passionate.
Though there is nothing else special about you. Magic reference: "Special" to refer to magic, Iona has no personal magic or abilities.
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:
Speed and warmth becomes you. Breed reference: Thoroughbred x Warmblood
-- 0 :: The speed makes sense for the thoroughbred, but I don't think that "warmth" equates to Warmblood. While they share the same base word, warmth is not a descriptor of a warmblood horse like speed is to thoroughbred or strength is to draft, etc. This clue would have held its own with just the speed reference, because Iona is mostly thoroughbred and has a very high speed stat (9).
Look in the mirror – we are the same. Appearance reference: "Look" to refer to eyes, "we are the same" - Grim and Iona both have green eyes.
-- +1 :: Both have green eyes.
Such bravery impassions your heart. Personality reference: Straight from her profile: Iona is brave and passionate.
-- +1 :: Yep.
Though there is nothing else special about you. Magic reference: "Special" to refer to magic, Iona has no personal magic or abilities.
-- +1 :: Yes! I thought this clue was referring to an equine or unranked/outcast or no stuff, etc. character!
Speed and warmth becomes you. Breed reference: Thoroughbred x Warmblood 0| [Breed ref] far too vague to nail down a specific breed much less point to breed at all.
Look in the mirror – we are the same. Appearance reference: "Look" to refer to eyes, "we are the same" - Grim and Iona both have green eyes. 0| [Appearance ref] Just having same colored eyes isn't the same as saying 'we are the same' I would have looked for larger similarities like species, gender, rank, body color, etc. over eyes. If this had some way clued into to seek out eyes, then it would have worked, but it was too vague for that.
Such bravery impassions your heart. Personality reference: Straight from her profile: Iona is brave and passionate. +1| [Personality ref] yup
Though there is nothing else special about you. Magic reference: "Special" to refer to magic, Iona has no personal magic or abilities. 0| [Asset ref] HMMMM I thought about this clue's reveal for a while. In the end I feel like 'special' is too broad a term to specify magic/assets. Because asset wise she has two items which is 'special', but she has no magic or companion - but I also look at special and I see that she's a pegasus not an equine, that she's a paint and has scars, not a solid color etc. Those things to me make her special. Again if this clue had somehow pointed to direct people to look at magic, or lack thereof, it could have worked. 1/3 necessary to pass
Speed and warmth becomes you. Breed reference: Thoroughbred x Warmblood 0 | Same reasoning as the other two - I would have agreed that speed=tb, but warm is not the same as warmblood.
Look in the mirror – we are the same. Appearance reference: "Look" to refer to eyes, "we are the same" - Grim and Iona both have green eyes. +1 | Eye colour was one of the things I was looking for here.
Such bravery impassions your heart. Personality reference: Straight from her profile: Iona is brave and passionate. +1 | Yep for personality
Though there is nothing else special about you. Magic reference: "Special" to refer to magic, Iona has no personal magic or abilities. 0 | Similiar to blu's comments - there are special things about her. Her coat isn't plain, her species isn't plain, she has items, has a rank, etc.
