"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.

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.

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!

I tried to sell my soul last night, it's funny he wouldn't even take a bite.
Oh it was chilly outside. My coat was thick, but not so as to hide my female curves. Oh no. I was still distinctly mare. And I didn't hide it one bit. In fact I was flaunting it. Desire seemed to burn in every muscle, like red hot coals. I had certainly had... experiences before. Brought on by a fucking hot hunk (Kudo's Mauja), or anger (God-Damn Caleb). It has been a different situation each time. And it was no different this time. This time was much different. I wasn't brought on by a certain aspect of someone's looks or anger. It just happened. One moment I'm minding my own business, and the next? I needed to find a studly stud. I just needed it. Honestly I didn't particularly care who, just as long as he had a.. Well you know.
But at the same time I needed a scenery. A hideaway. I may be full of raging girl hormones but I had some class. But only some. It's honestly a minuscule amount at the moment. Honestly, It was taking everything I had to travel to a much more remote place, instead of finding a stud to jump the bones of.
Which is why I was here. It smelled like there had been other creatures here, enough traveled that I'm sure someone would smell and come running, but not enough to worry to bad that we would easily be found. I don't know. I don't even really care. Two studs come? By all means. I'll do you both. Three? Probably would still... Well you get the idea.
Honestly I felt so warm, I didn't even feel the cold. In fact there was steam rising from my black coat, as sweat curled the thick hairs on it. Why was I sweaty? Well, a huge portion of it was from exertion just getting to these blood pouring falls, the other ah. Anticipation I suppose. And so I waited. Steam rising, tail flicking and snapping. It was a rather impatient wait, and with a burning look I studied the roaring falls, and the tree surrounded area. There had been blood shed here, a battle had raged, and I had been part of it. It all seemed so long ago, when it really wasn't to long ago at all. Funny how time seems to fly.

Red is a pulsing color: it is the shade of blood and passion. It throbs around the basilisk, though he does not know it. Serpents do not take head to the color of the world. It fades black and white and grey, and it is the heat that pulls him closer, the faint trails of the vermin that lead him to his kill.
He glides in the underbrush. It is a new land, but he does not take heed in the boundaries he crosses. He is mindless when he hunts; calculated and cunning, yes, yet there is no thought there. He is a slave to the urges of his snakeflesh as he crawls on powerful coils, slithering through the current of his most raw, current desires. He craves for meat.
It is only when another sort of pungent odor reaches him that he gives pause to these animal urges. He pauses, knowing what it is he picks up—reveling in the detail of such a scent, for his snake’s sense is superior in that regard. He tastes it in the air, hot and throbbing, and it is enough to pique his interest, to bring some semblance of the man back into the body of the beast. His hunger shifts, changes; he remains ravenous, though the targeted flesh is altered, now.
He changes.
--
The process is always long, and arduous, and yet he has taught himself how to muffle the groaning discomfort as he retreats back into horseflesh. He lays there for some moments, hidden in the underbrush as he pants through the pain in his limbs that slowly ebbs away. It is a sharp pain, the sort that bursts in great, sickening waves—yet it never lasts long.
He stands upon pillars of obsidian, and he can still smell her (for it is a mare) though his senses are muffled by the cloak of a horse. He knows she is not near—and wonders, then, how it is that a mare could smell so strongly. Is it the ridiculous reds of the forest that has gotten her blood pumping so?
He goes to search for her; she is not so difficult to find. Like a great black pearl lost
in a great trove of rubies, she stands out, an abyss in the blinding crimson brilliance. She steams; her skin seems to burn hot, her form taut as she regards the roaring falls. He tilts his head as he regards her. He wonders if he wanders into a trap.
“You seem vulnerable,” he accuses. The temptation is too evident.

I tried to sell my soul last night, it's funny he wouldn't even take a bite.
"You seem vulnerable"
The words cause my head to turn from the falls to look behind me at the grey behemoth. I studied him with a rather sultry look, before my lips curled up, crinkling the soft skin. "You mistake me for a damsel in distress..."
My head turns from him, looking back at the falls, before sighing deeply. My tail flicked back and forth at my hocks, before I turned my whole body around, to face this grey, stallion. My soft nose breathed in his musky scent. Oh yes. I had reeled in a good catch. He was thick of build, with such lovely eyes. And the hair. The thick tangles of black hair.
Oh my god.
My mind wanders to nether parts, thoughts like if he's huge, is he also?...
"Or maybe you mistake vulnerability with intentionally waiting for someone just. Like. You."
My eyes dances with the imagined fun I might soon be having, and the smile, turned into a grin as I danced closer, my head lowering and ears flipped forward. "Are you a hero, my dear? Can you help me full fill my quest?" My head lifted and tilted to the side, and my eyes flicked sideways before back at him. "Or maybe you are a villian. In which case, you should help anyways." My voice lowered to a soft whisper. "It's a fun one." I winked slyly at him.
I was all out there. I was so ready for this it was ridiculous. My body felt hot and sticky, and my tail wrung and whisped through the air constantly. I'm sure he could smell me from five miles away. I could smell myself, and that didn't happen often.

[I am a trashcan and I am so sorry ;-;]
He wonders, even then, if he should have eaten her.
She sidles to him, sticky with her sweat and her woman-scent, her eyes fluttering everywhere except towards sense. She is displayed before him, speaking in sultry tones that turn ribbons in his head, bowties and loop-de-loops and everything that refuses to secure the knot. Ridiculous ribbons, he decides. Her scent is overpowering.
His eyes obey the wishes of a dancing body, and prey upon her flesh intensely, shamelessly, appraising a body thrown at his feet (for that is what she is doing, yes?). He decides she is--inadequate. Not quite an ugly specimen, but she could’ve done without the absurd blue hues on her legs (ridiculous ribbons) the unseemly splashes of white against her face, her rear hocks. A solid black would’ve been much more appropriate, he decides. Her form is correct, as well, although it is smaller than he would like, thin and boney, his taste for the female body spoiled by the sweet rolling hills and valleys of his herdmate Shida: he is forever ruined by the lewd, arbitrary pleasure of a fleshy mound that ripples when struck.
He settles back on one rear hoof; his brow is cocked, pleasantly so, and he sighs a deep, purring sigh. To stall for time to allow his brain to work, to placate her dazzling, expectant blue eyes (always, always blue eyes). Before, perhaps, he would’ve bedded her and been done with it, washed of her company and forgetful of the incident within hours—but some caution whispers in his ear, perhaps from Ka’Ora’s slender chest, her worrisome, careful heart. The results of his conquest now walk the earth—powerful Oizys, sharp Enyo, savage Merlin— and their births have stirred something within him, an awakening, the dawning of a new age and destiny. He has learned his sperm is valuable, and he must cast the seed carefully, in fertile grounds, where the monster that grows from it is great indeed. He must be fastidious.
This mare here—this black harlot on the verge of ugliness, skating the borders of ridiculousness, of stupidity—could she bear him a child that is worthy of his seed and blood? And if not, how hard would it be to kill it—and her, if it should come to pass? Would it be worth the effort, the trouble, to, perhaps, rear a child born by this sweaty creature?
He wonders again: perhaps he should’ve eaten her?
The growl that erupts from his throat is a purr, a thick sigh of subtle longing. “I’m not sure about hero,” he teases, and his tail curls behind him, and his eyes are handsomely set beneath those strong brows of his, “or a villain, or anything such as that. Perhaps—I am just a lost little boy, just as you are a lost little girl.” The words twist on his tongue playfully, skilled in timbre, in volume and tone. He strokes her velvet spine with his tongue—studying her, deciding where she would fit in his plans, if she were to fit, indeed.“You must’ve wandered far from your home, wherever it may be, just to find some…help…for your dilemma…”
His eyes are sly, the light sparkling with a wicked light as they fall upon her. Predator's eyes. "How is it that you've failed to find someone from your home to help in your...problems?"

Beating to your funeral song
I tried to sell my soul last night, it's funny he wouldn't even take a bite.
I studied his body language, as he studied me. The way he rocked back and cocked a brow. The way he took a deep sighing breath. The waiting was torturous. But under his studious gaze I lifted my head, and raised a brow, to peer at him with my left dazzling eye. I wonder if he found me beautiful? I figure he would be gone if he didn't find me marginally attractive (little did I know that he found me inadequate, bordering ugly).
So I'm left hanging, waiting for an answer. Ears are flicked forward, waiting for words to drop from his mouth. I cock a hoof, and if I could, I would probably whistle a tune. Just when I am about to decide he is to daft to realize what I am offering he growls, causing my wandering eyes to slip back to his giant form. Words slide easily from his masculine mouth, they twist in the air. Not hero, not villian. A little boy and a little girl? Little girl... I was far from a little girl. A laughing snort escapes my nostrils, but I decide not to comment.
Instead I comment on his following words. He watches me with his predatory eyes, and it causes a shiver down my spine. "Mmmm, Not to far. I'm a northern lady, though I suppose through all my... Well, heat, you might not smell it." I smirk, as I finally reach his last question. "As for that, well. One of them would kill me should I ask, and the rest are all unworthy maggots. And might I mention, unattractive." A smirk plays on my mouth, as I look him up and down. No, none of them are nearly as gorgeous as this hunky predator. I almost feel like he could eat me.
"Are you game or what? I don't have all day. I'm sure you could understand." My brows raise, and honestly I had no patience for twenty questions.
She doesn’t call herself “wild”, or alludes to the life of a gypsy. No, she is of the north, that harsh place of ice and glaciers, and Reginald knows there is a herd there. The Basin. It is a key that quells the easy, tempting option of just eating the poor soul.
A child in the Basin is appealing.
He knows his eldest children shall reside in the Edge when they are old enough—their paternity secret, their identity safe so that tiny bodies may nurture themselves into cold-hearted, useful maturity (Enyo knows her duty). Merlin was borne by a countryman, and so she shall be reared by the blazing hot winds and sand of his homeland—it is just as well, for he feels Merlin will be one that needs to be watched.
To have another pair of eyes and tiny feet in yet another corner of the map incites his curiosity so much more, his sense of pride and a growing force of driving purpose. His actions leap before his schemes, and he must catch up. There is an opportunity in those sable, boney hips.
As for that, well. One of them would kill me should I ask, and the rest are all unworthy maggots.
Does she speak of the stallion Öde?
Reginald remembers how the child (the man) had stalked those icy halls in their youth—he wonders if the brute had decided to stay there after all. He wonders what it means for the red-eared lord to have found this woman distasteful, while Reginald stands here himself considering whether to take him to bed. He wonders which sort of ramifications he might have in the future, to plant his seed in the fields of an ally? Should he be told? Should Reginald keep the secret safe against his breast, like he does for all others?
His thoughts are cut short.
Are you game or what? I don't have all day.
He could’ve eaten her, just for that smug comment. It takes all of him, every iota of his focus, his self-control, to keep the ease in his features, to stop his ears from pinning themselves against the bulk of his neck. This beggar finds herself a chooser--and where it not for the virtue of her homeland, the possibilities of a foal borne by a forgettable, replaceable womb. He decides for now—it is worth it.
And if she proves herself detestable, and the child worthless—why, it would bring him that much more pleasure to tear her apart, to shred the child before her very eyes. He would revel in teaching that lesson.
“Of course I understand,” he breathes to her—and it is his smokiest voice, his most tantalizing purr that he uses, so that he may set the immediate mood, “If you would…?” He does not wait for her to invite him forward—he approaches the sweat-soaked mare, and he takes.
He is never a gentle creature—he has never tried to be—although he cannot stop himself from his roughness, his meanness after her petty words, and he hopes she is sore and broken somewhere.
