"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.

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'm like the end of a hitchcock movie; a little dark and a lot deceiving
Was it only because Ampere was back after her prolonged absence that Tae suddenly felt a prickling all along her spine, as if invisible hackles there were raising? Certainly the two massive canines at her sides reflected this feeling for her. But the ghostly girl couldn't quite place where this defensiveness was coming from. Was it merely her Father's hard-inbred sense of loyalty to her family? Whatever it was, the girl could feel ire raising in her veins.
Without needing to, but doing it anyways, Tae leaned against Grusha just briefly. She knew full well that her twin would have noticed the change in the girl's stance, and that she would always be there to back her play, but uncharacteristically Tae needed to touch her larger twin. To know that she was still there, maybe.
Tae wanted to look to the other side of her, to see Nizho. To apologize? To say goodbye? To wink mischievously? She didn't know, but winging it, when it came to her feelings for the colt and the odd pitter-patter that his presence inspired in her, had never been her strong suit.
So, Tae quickly departed back down the sand dune and towards the assembled gathering.
Her pale eyes were locked upon the grievous smear of life currently addressing her mother. Tae's magic had fully taken over her body, and as the larger filly neared the smaller one, she appeared 99% ghost and only 1% girl. She looked as though a strong breeze might blow her away in wisps of nothingness, but her pale eyes blazed even sharper now. At her side, the two large black canines snarled, snapping their teeth angrily. They enjoyed feeling this sense of blood lust from their bonded and were happy to allow her emotions to wash over them.
"Who do you think you are?" Tae breathed, her voice bizarrely steady and low. It was unsettling. "You're a nobody, a child who was contributed nothing to this herd, and you would speak so to our former Sultana and Gladiator? Do you know so little?" Tae advanced forward with both Mal and Hel matching her step. "Magic is literally the one thing that could keep death away," she continued, ears flat against her ghostly skull. She expected the girl to spout of some nonsense about not needing to know who Ampere was. What the fuck was it with this generation, that made them think they were invulnerable to consequences? If she had no respect for Ampere's political pull in this herd, the magic that literally sparked from her body should have been evidence enough that perhaps a more respectful tone would have been appropriate.
"This is my Father's death bed now, you pitiful shit." She snarled, mocking the girl's early use of the phrase. "And you will leave." Magic wafted around the girl - a large eagle seemingly composed of the same phantasmal body as Tae currently had. It hovered by her shoulder, easily the size of one of the wolves, with its piercing eyes and talons fixed upon Val. At her left side, the Hellhound's fire markings began to deepen. With a word, he would rain hellfire down upon this pathetic child. Mal however added his own magic to the fray, conjuring up a _______ [*it's terrorize, so insert Val's greatest fear here], to set up the indignant child.
"Now."
@Amara because Tae is addressing/attacking Val ;-; The only real attack is from Mal, who uses terrorize. The other magic is just threats at this point.
