"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!

Moments after his call was out another answered and his head raised ears pricked. Zafir saw the strange mare heading their way and quirked her head curiously. Astarot couldn't help but look over the odd but beautiful woman. She had horns on her jawline and one on her nose that were red tipped. Her body was shorter than his but what did that matter? In fact he liked slightly shorter mares, not tiny of course, but smaller. It made him feel more masculine; as messed up as that was. She is thick built, another plus in his mind. A warm smile falls easily into place as she speaks.
Before he can reply a whale shows up and sends out a few whistles. Zafir's attention turns fully to the strange creature and she whistles back a deeper pitch than the whale's. He smiled up at his dragon for a second before Tiamat arrived. His eyes travel quickly over the ocean mare's gracefully body. His throat tightens slightly as a rush of hormones fills his body. His bone marked head lowers in greeting, to both mare's in turn. Zafir carefully lands in front of the two mares and the whale. She croons softly to the strange companion wanting to see more of her. Astarot smiled watching his dragon, sure she wouldn't feel the need to dominate such a strange animal. She was clearly no threat to her standing.
"Hello Miss, and Tiamat." His smile never faltered as his gaze flicked between the two lovely ladies. "I've recently been promoted to Alchemist, a healer, and I've come to offer herbs." He grinned sheepishly for a moment his tail flicking, "I was also hoping I could learn a little about other plants." It sounded strange to say it out loud, maybe it wasn't such a good idea to say that, but it was to late now. He wondered if they thought he didn't think the other healers in his herd were adept in plants.
Zafir shifted her attention to the ocean mare for a moment before turning back to her whale. "Thank you Tiamat, her name is Zafir. It means Sapphire in Hungarian." He chuckled at his lame attempt at a name. Zafir liked it well enough, it matched her body and left her personality a mystery, which she liked. Another appeared, with yet another interesting companion. Zafir was thrilled at meeting so many strange creatures in one day. This one was white and looked like a fox with several tails. Astarot smiled at the new mare and dipped his head warmly. "It's a pleasure to meet you Miss Lena. I'm Astarot." He noticed the plants she set down and eyed them curiously.
"I brought All-heal to trade for knowledge." He looked at each shorter mare wondering what they thought of him. He was younger than all of them and had just admitted to not knowing much about his field. His tail swished nervously around his hocks. Zafir couldn't careless what the others thought of her bonded. In her mind he was the best, eager to learn, willing to admit his short comings, but willing to defend what he was good at. She glanced back at him her scarlet eyes flashing as she pulsed pride into their bond.
