"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.

I yelled back when I heard thunder, but I'm down to one last breath
"Leander..." Redux relayed softly, almost to herself, as if trying out the name on her lips. She smiled to the winged stud and listened intently to his voice. The mentioned position of being a warrior confirmed Redux's thoughts about the stallion before her. He carried himself the way a warrior would. Redux's vivid orange eyes kept him in focus while, every so often, checking on the state of the unicorn stallion. Her attention was instantly captured by Leander's words. There were unicorns out there who hated the wings settled on the backs of these equines? The idea was absurd and belittled by Redux instantly. At the back of her mind, she knew there were winged horses who hated the unicorns as well. Redux glanced between D'artagnan and Leander for a moment before settling her attention back to the winged stallion.
As Leander began speaking of their surroundings and the layout of Helovia, Redux's eyes were alight with a vibrant fire of curiosity. This place she had stumbled upon was much bigger than she had initially expected. To be able to explore such a wondrous, large territory made Redux swell with optimism. Would she finally find the place that was calling her? Redux's ears were strained forward to listen to every detail Leander was giving her. She smiled exuberantly up to the handsome stud as the pride in his voice swept his features. The horned mare had no intention of making small comments while he was talking-- the stud did manage to consume her entire attention-- and Redux was better at listening than talking anyhow. She nodded slowly as if to digest the last bit of information he gave her.
The tension he showed for a moment caused Redux to shift her gaze away from the stud and look about their surroundings. The skies were still cloudy but open. For a swift moment she was jealous that Leander was able to reach such heights. The only times Redux's cloven hooves left solid ground was to jump over fallen trees in the forests she explored. Her optics gazed back to Leander in time to return his smile. "I trust that you have, Leander. Thank you for taking the time to tell me all of this. I shall definitely keep it in mind throughout my time here in Helovia." she said in a warm, cheerful tone. Redux quirked her ears back towards Leander as he asked her a question. A thoughtful look came about her features as she thought of what to say to the stud.
"I have forgotten where I hail from, truthfully." she answered softly, her voice quiet now as she spoke, "I do not know what I seek quite yet. I'll find my calling soon enough, though." Redux smiled up to Leander and then took a moment to look wistfully around them. "I've spent my years trying to find a place that truly felt like home... So I hope that Helovia may have a place for me in it's depths." she said thoughtfully. She turned her gaze back to Leander and smiled sweetly to him. "What about you, Leander? Were you born here in Helovia?" Her own curiosity shining through as she asked, hoping to get to know the stallion a little better.
