"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?

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!

It wont be long until Arah and Tilbert are ready to be parents!
Ideally we would like someone else to write this character with us on Helovia and become a part of the family; it already has a name, gender and entire design worked out mostly.
I have chosen NOT to reveal much info yet as I am worried all previous interest in this character was because she has artwork from prominent artists, and I am worried people may not in fact be dedicated to playing the character but just want to use the art if that makes sense.
I cannot emphasise how important it is to me that I find the best match for this character, and that they wont fall into AA. If a match is not found, Frostie or myself will play her.
Here's what I can tell you though;
The character is female
There IS a chance there could be a male twin - This might depend on how much response we get from this.
She was designed by an incredible equine artist you have all heard of, but I will not say who because again this is not about 'omg i want some of so and so's art', this is about actually committing to a character.
The characters personality IS somewhat customizable to what you'd preffer as this is not final yet.
How will this work?
This will work exactly the same as how Tamme will be playing my character Byron/Viktor. He's still my character, but she plays him and I am only leasing his rights to her.
This character will be leased to the successful applicant in the same way, she will however NOT be owned by you in anyway. This was also one of the requests her designer made, that she is not to be resold or given away, etc. (I wouldn't anyway)
Please message my OC account OR skype (murdoch.paddy.chaya) with the form below to register your interest; those who have done so will be sent a reference of the character and a brief.
You will then have a week or two to come up with an audition post AS the character which can be sent to me via message, or perhaps we could see about having a thread for this audition in the growth center? (ill ask admin about this)
Frostie and I will then work out who we'd like to play her, simples!
What am I looking for?
Someone who doesn't already have 87 characters to write
Someone active and totally willing to participate
Someone GENUINELY INTERESTED in playing the character, not just wanting to get their paws on some art!
ABOVE ALL; DEDICATION TO THIS CHARACTER
Form to send to me;
OOC Name;
How many characters do you have?
How much time would you be able to spend on this character?
Why should we pick you?
Thanks fellas, I'll send all applicants information re; audition on the 13th April.
That would definitely be more interesting! I filled in the form anyway, I'm awfully curious but I think I'd like more information before saying yay or nay either way <3
Okay, so after sucking on the thought for a while (like a lollipop 8D) I have come to the decision that I do very very much want the twin if you decide he will be a go <3 I have all sorts of ideas, and it's at the level of me maybe making him happen even if it turns out not to be a Tilarah baby. :D

You can still apply @Zandora.
We will accept all applications and while reviewing them take into consideration the amount of active characters each applicant has.
And I ain't afraid to die, I’m afraid of going to hell.
