"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!

Dearest Lady Deliverance, are you an artist too?
- Gender Ref
- Name Ref, Najya translates to "Liberated, Free" 0 | Lady Deliverance is an actual figure in religion (Mary) and though Najya herself is free, she's not exactly known to be a great liberator of people's, so this is a 0 from me: confusing.
I can see the ink stains on your body and well I know the signs.
- Appearance Ref - Gold Tattoo on leg +1 | Guessed it!
Do you live and die in symphonies and stories like me?
- Profile says Najya is inspired by Sheherazad, a fictional storyteller -1 | Scheherazade actually lived, according to the lore by telling her story to the king and making him wait night after night for the ending! This, to me, is misleading because "live and die" makes me think more of Ophelia from Hamlet or a tragic fictional character from the classics who did die.
Do you stand under stars to gaze like me?
- Appearance Ref, white spots on her back +1 | Pass!
Did the gods tell you they would keep your safe in this world?
- Parents names translate to “Sign of God” and “Safeguard” 0 | There is nothing leading me to parents here :( Maybe if you had said "did your ancestors tell you..."
That’s what they told me, but I don't think it’s true
- No additional clues

Dearest Lady Deliverance, are you an artist too?
- Gender Ref
- Name Ref, Najya translates to "Liberated, Free"
:: 0 : Lady Deliverance is a proper noun, pointing to Mary. :: 0 : One clue per phrase, lady deliverance cannot count for a gender reference if it is also counting as a name reference
I can see the ink stains on your body and well I know the signs.
- Appearance Ref - Gold Tattoo on leg
:: +1 Appearance Ref
Do you live and die in symphonies and stories like me?
- Profile says Najya is inspired by Sheherazad, a fictional storyteller
:: 0 : Ehhh, it sort of works, but the symphonies part made me think of a storyteller AND musical character, which Najya is not. I don't think it is misleading, but I don't think it's a true clue either.
Do you stand under stars to gaze like me?
- Appearance Ref, white spots on her back
:: +1 appearance reference.
Did the gods tell you they would keep your safe in this world?
- Parents names translate to “Sign of God” and “Safeguard”
:: -1 : This clue has no reference to her parents/family but instead to religion and gods, which is misleading.
That’s what they told me, but I don't think it’s true
- No additional clues
