"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!

Pregnant. How can this be?! I could of swore I was to young for that to happen, or at least the fact that I am not in heat... Well, that it wouldn't of happened. Lady pads along at my side. She's still so little, but she's already becoming protective of me. Her white fur is getting thicker now, and my coat is too. The cold air of OrangeMoon should give way to FrostFall here soon... But will it? With the Gods all gone, would we all still be around for FrostFall to arrive? I have heard of the mists taking over some of the lands already including the Edge. I haven't seen any of my newfound family since then, and I fear the worst of course. Little Sapphira and Ceto, Calypso and Brendan's twins.... Uncle Aaron's daughter Sarai... Don't get me wrong, I worry for the adults too. Even Farah.
But as I enter the grove, I try to focus on the good and not the bad. Stress will not be good for the baby. I think of his or her father too. The pearl beads in my mane and tail catch the dying light, as the sun is beginning to set. Looks like we'll stay here for the night. Hunt if you need to, i'll be alright. At the thought, the silver collar I had found a few weeks ago sprung to life, silver armor with teal silk lining covering my frame. It was a bit strained around my belly, as it has begun to swell just ever so slightly with the life it holds. Lady darts off, taking the chance to hunt. I knew she was hungry. I could feel it. Meanwhile, i'll just hang out here. Just sit and think... and hope that my family is okay.
Scars heal, glory fades
Pain hurts, but only for a minute
'Cause the chicks dig it
Ever since he had come across his abandoned son the stallion had been hunting for the other mare he had spent a night with. He couldn't stand the thought of another possible child being left to fend for itself. Fear sent a shiver racing over his body as he looked down at his young son walking beside him. He had grown quickly under the watchful eye of his father and Isabella. He knew his mother had left him, but that didn't bother him.It was just a fact of life that he had been left to his father. There wasn't any reason to be angry or cry about it. Ilios smiled down at his happy go lucky colt. Isabella strode beside them in her silver wolf form enjoying the way the colt still played with her.
Suddenly the silver wolf stopped her nose and tail raised. 'I smell her.' Ilios pricked his ears sharply, "Come Kyros, we found her." His voice was tinged with excitement and anxiety. What if the pretty heart speckled mare wasn't even pregnant; would she be angry for hi assuming? Sure she would understand when he told her Kyros's story. The trio picked up the pace Isabella raced a head of the father and son leading the way.
When they neared they slowed and Isabella took on her Peryton form, figuring it was best to appear none threatening. She stood beside Kyros her golden eyes bright with curiosity. Cautiously the ivy marked stallion nickered softly before stepping out into the open. He dipped his head and smiled taking in the armor that covered his body. His eyes flicked quickly to her stomach noticing how they were wider now. "Hello Sansa, how are you today?" Curiously Kyros stepped into the open followed quickly by Isabella.
Ilios glanced down at the pair smiling warmly his eyes softening, "This is my son, Kyros. Actually he is why we are here." He glanced nervously up at the pretty mare. "I... I found him abandoned by his mother in the Heart Caves." The colt bobbed his golden ivy marked head his black eyes looking curiously at her pretty armor. "Hello miss." His voice was warm and shy as he blinked at her. "Mama left me and Pa and Bella found me." He shrugged as if it didn't matter, and to him it really didn't.
Ilios reached down and gently nudged his grulla hide his eyes shinning with pride and pain. He knew what it felt like to be abandoned. His own father had allowed him to be lead away moments after his birth by his mother. Of course Ciceron had eventually come back, but the damage had been done. He still regretted how he had handled the whole thing. 'If only I could talk to him one more time.' He sighed softly and turned his sad eyes to the pretty mare, "I wasn't sure if," He paused glancing down at his son and clearing his throat, "Had come from our time together, but..." Damn this was difficult, how could he say it without sounding like he assumed she would do the same thing as Imogen. "I had to talk to you, to uh, see how you felt about it. I only want all of my children to be safe..." He looked at her pleadingly, and Kyros copied his father hoping this lady would not leave his sibling alone.
