Welcome to the Layonara forums!

Layonara is so much more than a game. We started off as a tabletop Dungeons and Dragons campaign more than a decade ago. Since then we have developed into a fantasy world with as much compelling and engrossing detail as you will find anywhere.

Our current showcase is a Neverwinter Nights version of Layonara, where our world comes to life in a finely polished persistent world which you can play free of charge. These forums are set up to support and accentuate our player's experiences, but it goes far beyond that.

After years of passionate effort, our world is so well developed, so detailed, so refined that any of the handbooks, maps, historical accounts, legends, descriptions of artifacts, creature reports, character biographies, short stories, novels, movies and original art which populate these forums can surely serve as resources or inspiration for your own fantasy endeavors, whatever they may be. And our world is endlessly evolving, so resources are frequently added and updated.

There are also years of sage advice and commentary on role-playing, gaming and online community development stored in these forums. If camaraderie is what you seek, we offer that too. Our community is as active and supportive as you're likely to find on the internet. In short, these forums are a resource for you to use for whatever purpose or project brought you here.

We're confident that you will find what you are looking for, and likely, substantially more.

Please be our guest and browse around the forums which are available to you. As you do, keep in mind that you are sampling only a portion of what Layonara has to offer. Membership in our community is free, and allows you to establish a Layonara identity to pose your questions and share your thoughts on the forums.

Default New Character

Full Name: Alv Quicksilver
Age: 20
Class: Sorcerer
Race: Human
Subrace:Tieflin
Aignment: Chaotic Good
Deity:
Bio:

Alv was born in a small fishing villge, not worth any map, in the north of Mistone near the High Forest. His mother, a simple goat farmer, died during Alv's birth. Nothing was knw of Alv's father as his mother came back from tending the goats on the high hills bearing child and would not say anything to anyone about it. Whetn Alv's mother died, her sister Lorena, took Alv under her wing. This created a lot of talk amoung the other villagers who called Alv a devil spawn due to the small goat hornes on his skull. They blamed him for his mothers death and would have killed the babe had not Lorena taken him into the forest with her to her tower.

Lorena was a powerful wizard and saw great potenial in Alv. She gave him is secend name to go along with his first name, Alv, the one his mother gave him befor she died. Quicksilver Lorena called him as his eyes burned with a silver light when he was angry. Alv was a cheerful child, full of life intill he reached his teenage years. His power came from natural ability, rather than study which caused Lorena to wander about him as his maother had been quite unmagical.When he reached 13 though, he began to hear desturbing vocies that caused him to have fits of deperessiotn and he in turn, spread his mood around anything that came to close to him.

Lorena became worried about this along with the other powers he was developing that were not normal. She hopped this phase would pass in time, then somthing happened on the night befor Alv's 20th birthday.

Alv had grown very tall, standing 6ft 4inches. The villagers had grow fearful of Alv and called a young paladin of Toran to destroy Alv's evil taint. Mean while Lorena had gone into medition to descover the sorce of Alv's deperession. Alv found her burnt and twisted corpse on the ground and wepet over her.

The young champion of Toran then found him moments later, causing Alv to belive that the paladian had killed her. Alv fell into a murderes rage, silver light pouring from his eyes, he then tore the paladin limb from bloodied limb. Afterwards realising what he had done, he fled south to escape the wrath of the villegers, hoping to somehow discover who his father realy was and to find answers to what the vocies in his head were.

What Alv was never told was that his father was also a Tiefling, named Azamoth, and that his mother had been seeing him when she went to tend the goats. She never told anyone as she was frightened that the local priest would condone her. After Azamoth descovered that Alv's mother was with child he fled as he was fearful of what he was bringing into the world. He didnt want his tainted bloodline to continue. Alv never knew any of this and grew up blissfully unaware that his father was out there ashamed of him.

Hello,
You have an interesting story here. I am afraid however, that chaotic nuetral is restricted. I assume you realize that, hence your note. There are several options: you could change the race to simply human, and change the story around a little. (His summoning "tainted" spirits is a bit of a concern anyway)
You could change his class a bit (and thus his alignment) perhaps to ranger and keep the same spirit of the story. You could also hold on to this character and play another for awhile until you meet the requirements to play Chaotic Nuetral.

hmm...How about I change his class to sorcerer, his Alignment to Chaotic good and give him no starting off deity so he can descover one as he learns about the world. Also I'll change his bio so that Lorena is a sorcerer instead of a druid.

Ive just edited the bio. I thought that Alv should descover where his tiefling blood came from as a personal quest later on in the game, as it is one of the reasons why he is traviling.

while your character may not know where the blood came from it needs to be at least outlined in your submission. Tiefling is a special subrace, we require these to be fleshed out and very detailed.

Having a Demon lord for a father is far too powerful. Even an average demon would make your character a half demon. The reason we require so much extra information on these special subrace is to insure that you know the subrace and will RP it properly. The closest the outsider blood is allowed to be is grandparents and that is still almost too close.

Here is a link on Tieflings. Please read it though and update the bio with where in his history the demon blood has come from.

ok, I think his bio should be fine now as I've got rid of the demon lord bit.
