"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.

☼ - 7/19/13 - The moon has risen in the sky, heralding the return of the Goddess of the moon. Lamp trees which light the paths have grown brighter, moon flowers which grow in dark places have begun to grow and prosper and the world is brighter, filled with a new hope.
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!

give me your eyes for just one second,
give me your eyes so i can see
everything that i keep missing
As Rasta smiles she can feel the tiny upturn in winged mare's maw before she gently bumps her maw against the shoulder below the wing in welcome. Her voice making sure she is saying hello to the correct winged creature. And, the response only proves that she has at least managed to pinpoint the mare who had led her to this new land that she could call her home, the gesture of welcome returned by a gentle brush against Rasta's nape as the smile widens her maw even more.
Again, Rasta says that the Miss is not required. After all, she is not leading anymore, it serves no purpose. The winged one says she wishes to retain the miss, calling it a form of habit and making a light joke of it. Though, Rasta can tell that she is a little shy in her speech. "I suppose if you cannot get rid of it is fine. Though, I do not wish to make it seem as though I am in a leadership position when I have just joined." she explained, her brows furrowing slightly before shrugging it off and questioning her well being. Something seemed to be bothering her, but of course Rasta could have been wrong in reading her stride.
It didn't take too long for the mare to admit that she was worried. Carefully, Rasta bobbed her head, audits perked tall in an effort to urge her on. She knew from experience spilling what was eating one up inside only aided the process of healing. The words that are uttered from Sohalia's mouth is understandable. She has lost the one thing that defined her. And it seemed as though she had done quite a good job with the thing that defined her, as the wall that was near the two mares was definitely sturdy.
Carefully, she pulls herself forward just a little, snatching a piece of the mare's mane and giving it a light tug to pull out the knot that was in it before I ever so delicately kick my hind leg into the metal wall, listening to the way it echos strongly until the resonating of the metal clanging cannot be heard. "Sohalia. You will contribute just fine. I am certain the endless night will very much so end. Do you hear how sturdy that wall is? There are a few weak spots, but they can easily be fixed. You built this - without any way of really telling just how strong it would become. You are not weak. You will find ways to protect your family." Rasta paused, her blind eyes closing for a moment. "Have you considered actually listening to the world around you and feeling everything it has to offer? Taking in the vibrations? They offer more information than one would believe..." She explained, delicately stomping her hoof in the dirt and feeling as it sent out the vibrations to the metal walk ways, nothing else around them except perhaps a few random animals scuttling around in the night. "It will aid you more in the dark - where it is more difficult to see... I can try and teach you if you'd wish..." Rasta finished, tilting her cranium ever so slightly to the side so that her forelock covered her eyes which were still straining to lock upon the mare which was in front of her. The winged one was stronger than she knew. It was all a matter of getting her to believe it...
