"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!

FROM THE SCRAPES AND BRUISES TO THE FAMILIAR ABUSES I'LL KICK AND SCREAM BUT IT NEVER CHANGES ANYTHING
The pain was just about gone. Zarina had rushed back to Quil to calm any anxious nerves he had about Res's state of being, and Res was now limping along closer and closer to the center of the Edge. Kahlua was, hopefully, not too far behind but Res couldn't be sure with the mists shrouding her tiny frame and not providing her with a clear vision, especially behind her as the mists were of a much thicker substance.
It was time to find Smoke. The herbs she had found were definitely dulling the pain - and probably most of her nerves as well, which she couldn't exactly place as to why - but it was pertinent that both Kahlua and herself got some attention before anything became infected. She had seen what it had done to Quil - the way he had been much warmer than he was supposed to, how his eyes had glazed over with a red tint, how he had been easily exhausted and simply wanted to lay down all the time. She couldn't allow that to happen to either of them. While she was willing to go through the pain and torture it, truly, would do her no good. After all, her renewed purpose was definitely to help others, and if she could not stand or function how was she to help anyone else who might be in need.
Flickering her audit around she chose a spot that was relatively mist free before letting out a small, weak whinny into the surrounding air. "Smoke? Are you around here somewhere?" Concern was definitely beginning to flood through her features. She could have sworn she'd seen the grulla mare fighting, but in her panic she had not really taken in the situation of their brawl before running to cower in the grove of trees. Could the mare be injured badly? Could she be laying somewhere, dying, and leave Res with the inability to save yet another equine who she cared dearly for?
Please... don't let her be hurt...

Following faithfully behind Resplendence, Kahlua looked back to the foot-long gash that and torn open her thigh and shuddered. Where she had been limping before, pain with each step, now she could walk with relative ease. Resplendence had done her job well, finding them herbs to dull the pain and give them some relief. Still, the relief did not prevent her from thinking how ugly and terrifying the wound looked on her limb. She was not meant for the warriors life; if she wasn't certain about it before, she certainly was now.
An invasion... she could hardly believe the thing. So separate from politics, Kahlua had hardly realized there was any tension between the Basin and the World's Edge. She couldn't imagine why anyone would want to attack the peaceful members of the herd land she called home. After all, what had they done? They wished for peace, Kahlua knew... what was wrong with a dream for peace? She shook her head with a sigh. She would never understand the workings of the world the way their burdened leaders did. That's why she had Mirage the DragonHeart and Thor the GentleHeart to lead her, right?
As Resplendence called for Smoke, Kahlua picked up an uneasy trot, catching up to her new-found friend. She was looking forward to meeting with Smoke again. She had found the mare most accommodating on every occasion she had met her. Reaching out her nose, in an attempt to brush it up against Resplendence's shoulder and remind her of her presence, Kahlua otherwise remained silent. She was in no rush to yell out and announce her presence to any errant attackers that may be left behind.
