"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. 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!

The heat of the day beat down upon the young stallion as he glided carefully back into the Falls making sure not to hit any trees or anything of the sort. He was still not one hundred percent when it came to flying but he had gotten so much better at it once he managed to figure out how to get off the ground. It was difficult growing up without his dad there to teach him but thanks to Kaj and Cirrus he had managed to pick up the basics without too much difficulty. Granted he only learned this stuff a few months ago when most other pegasus he had met had been flying long before he had. Mother had done her best to help him from the ground but it had really been those extra lessons that had paid off in the long run. Shaking his head to clear away the long tendrils of his forelock from his eyes he paused to look around and see if there was anyone nearby. Spotting nobody for as far as the eye could see he set forward carefully folding his golden wings along his sides on his search for a mare by the name of Ranjiri.
Throwing in a playful buck in a show of his excitement the brindled stallion could barely contain himself. Just prior to arriving here in the Falls he had spoken to his mother and had gotten the news of the century. Two new Mason's had just been appointed and he was one of them! He had been absolutely thrilled by the news just to think that anyone would think of him to take on such a daunting task. Sure he had helped mother out when she had been the herd's Mason but in reality he hadn't done too much with crafting. This was the reason he was trying to hunt down Ranjiri, to try and get a handle on what all he had to do. He had big hooves to fill and he didn't want to disappoint anyone by screwing up on his very first project. Mother had said that this other mare had experience crafting so she was the perfect one to ask without having to drill his mother for everything that she knew. He wanted to feel grown up and this was the responsibility that would prove it, no matter what he could not fail or he would be back to square one.
There were so many things that needed to be done and I didn't even know where to begin. I had ideas on things that we could build in the Falls, but I didn't even know who to talk to besides Brisa and Uncle Archi. Compared to the Throat there was relatively little in the way of things being built in the Falls. I'd passed some prison cells and a healer's hut, but that was pretty much it. There was something that was halfway built, I think it was the sensory deprivation room, if I remembered the brief descriptions of the things that I'd been given. It was actually a little disappointing that there was so little going on. I wasn't used to such a laid back herd, in the Throat everyone had a job to do and they got it done.
Here ... not so much.
I was standing under the shade of one of the trees, looking out over all of the empty land as I mulled over everything we could build in my head. We could build temple for the Earth God and a place for the storyteller to ... tell stories, I guess. Maybe an arena for the warriors to meet and spar in, another small building for the healers to use as dry storage for their herbs, a fireplace of sorts that we could use to keep warm during the winter ... the ideas kept coming and it was frustrated because I didn't know where to start. I didn't even know if I could start without having permission from someone.
My thoughts were interrupted when I heard the rustle of feathers as someone flew over the tree I was standing under. My gaze lifted from the rolling hills toward the sky and I watched as a pegasus landed further down the hill away from me. The way he bucked and ran around it was obvious that he was excited about something and I couldn't help but wonder what it was. Besides that, I also still needed to meet the others horses in the herd. There was no point in me not trotting down to introduce myself to him, so that's what I did. I left the shade of my tree and made my way over to the bucking, running, playful stallion. "Hello!" I called out to him. "I'm Ranjiri ... I'm new here. Who are you?"
"."
Mother, make me
Make me a big tall tree
So I can shed my leaves and let it blow through me
