"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!

Mesec hadn’t exactly been able to race after Roskuld full-tilt after the meeting where they found out Mauja had been missing but he followed as soon as he could. First he had to deposit two very reluctant children with someone because, as much as he despised leaving them, he would move faster without them this time. He left Lucius behind with them to keep an eye on the pair and it made him feel better knowing that at least a part of him was there.
Then, once that was figured out, he had to find out where Ros had gone. With one side of the Edge bordering the ocean, there were only a million other directions she could have started her search. Fortunately, Chico had stayed behind (or been left behind) and was some help showing but, fortunately, Chico had stayed behind and was some help there. She had gone north so Mesec quickly set out to catch up - keeping his silver eyes peeled for both Mauja and the young Kianzo along the way.
In the end, however, he just found his sister. Which, really, wasn’t so bad but he already knew she wasn’t missing. Calling the shadows toward him, Mesec teleported to her location instead of wasting time catching up. Once there, he realized she was shouting the name Lee. Was there a third someone missing? Well, whoever she was looking for - he was here to help. Through his own worried expression, he managed to find a comforting smile for his little sister. “We’ll find him, Ros, don’t worry.”
After a few paces, his silver eyes scanning the land where Frostfall had come early, Lucius interrupted his thoughts by suggesting something.
Become the warg.
Before Mesec could freak out, his companion pointed out the benefits of having the senses of a predator while they were searching (hunting) for someone. For the moment, the shouting of his sister being worried for someone she cared about drowned out the memory of Zero’s screams and Mesec was able to realize the benefits of this plan. “Uhh… Ros?” He called out to her, stopping his search momentarily. He didn’t want to distract her but he definitely didn’t want what was about to happen to be a surprise. “Don’t freak out, okay? But I think we’re going to need a strong nose to sniff him out.”
This was it, he was actually doing this out of his own free will - for the first time ever. Not because of some heartache, there wasn’t even an echo of Ampere in his mind. She had always been involved with his triggers before this but now his mind was filled with a different family - his actual family. And they needed his help. He definitely had second thoughts, but in the end he knew it would help so he transformed there in the snow - there near Roskuld while Lucius fretted leagues away in the Edge. The grunts of pain during the process turned into growls but those faded away as wings and flesh turned into fur. He was still a little taller than her in this form - the mass of his horse body transforming into something that wasn’t quite a bear, wasn’t quite a wolf.
For a moment, he lingered awkwardly - blinking his silver eyes, but quickly remembered that they had come here for a reason. Not able to find any words to say, and afraid of what he might dredge up if he did, Mesec just shrugged his new hairy shoulders and started to pad off, his muzzle lowered low to the ground and he sought out any signs of Mauja - unwilling to entertain any outcome that did not see him home safely to the Edge.
