Character Approvals The characters on this board have been approved by a GM and may be played online, in the world.


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. When you join you'll also be able to communicate privately to other members (PMs), establish and respond to polls, upload and download content and access many other special features.

Default New Character: Anika Ryverwynde

Ani Ryverwynde

Name: Anika Ryverwynde
Age: 45
Class(es): Rog 8/ Wiz 26/ Fight 6
Race: Deep Gnome
Alignment: Neutral Good
Deity: Beryl
2 Domains (if cleric): N/A

Bio:
Her birth was much like her temperament... reclusive, reserved and rescinded. Her silvery locks were like a rainbow in the eyes of her father, Anitor although he didn’t have the foresight to see that this would be his only child, he had the wisdom to understand that this was the greatest blessing from Beryl.

But with every blessing comes a curse. Before Anika had even taken a step or spoke a word, her mother abandoned her, her father and their entire village. She knows little of why she left, and much less of where she is but she senses from her father that she’s still alive. Somewhere.

She grew up in the mines with her father, tirelessly picking away at the cavernous walls in search of gems so that they and their village could afford food to eat and weapons to defend themselves from the monsters of the Underdark. Ani was typically deep in thought and used her spare time reading anything she could get her hands on, and was renown for her impressive reasoning skills.

At the age of 37, Anitor realized that his daughter’s talents were being wasted on menial labor, she was destined to be greater than he was, he had come to accept that but feared for her path, knowing that her path you flow against Ryver... against their adversaries, the Dark Elves. She became the youngest female of the village Ryver to ever be inducted into the Guild of Eyes, a thieves society. She thrived for several seasons, learning the skills of espionage (which included deciphering Drowish notes, and learning the Guilds’ soundless language) and had developed a capacity to utilize Illusionary magic to defend her homeland.

On the eve of her 39th birthday as she was conducting a scouting mission away from the village, she was approached by a young helmed cadet and given word of an approaching troupe of Dark Elves, she gather herself and her hammer, began to travel down the dark, stone pathways to the centre of the village Ryver...

She became a febrile flush of fawning... she fell to her knees as the smoke singed her nostrils. Her village, the village Ryver lay in ruin. She heard the wails of the children and the pleas of the women trapped in the flames slowly welting away, then instantly caught a glimpse of the young cadet unsheathing his blade. She turned and with more fortune than skill thwarted a quick strike from the stronger gnome. Ani stepped back and dug her boots into the stone preparing for another attack... but it never came.

The cadet removed his helm revealing the long tresses of silvery hair and pair of piercing blue eyes. She knew who it was... but she didn’t understand why. The figure breathed a few words that Ani had never heard and the young gnome was knocked backwards several yards into the Ryver and the blackness came to her.

She awakened on the surface, a place she had never seen but had heard, read more stories of than she could remember. Her body battered and her spirit broken she has finally found civilization and has come to the realization that she needs to move on with her life... that it would be the greatest way to bring honor to her father.

~*~*~*~
1. This is my first proposed character of this server but Ani is a character from a story that I’ve written (so some of the things had to be adjusted into this world... one that I have little knowledge of) but if there is anything else you need me to add I’ll be happy to.

2. My character casts in full platemail (not sure if this is consider non-RP in this world or if casting with Expertise is) but switches to a robe occasionally. I will RP this... she wears the robe and clothes in cities (doesn’t wield weapons either) but protects herself when she travels. If this is not acceptable, she’ll just wear a wizard robe.

3. My pre-epic build is Rogue 5/ Wizard 10/ Fighter 5... I assume this is okay, it never takes a multiclass penalty either (not sure what the rules for that but it’s not an issue)

4. Gets 4 languages (18 Int, Gnome- Natural, Drow- Learned to spy on them, Sign- Learned to deliver messages stealth fully, and Thieves’ Cant- Natural)

5. Because of Min/ Max rules she’ll have 8 Wis and 6 Cha along with the 18 Int... that’s it.

Any suggestions would be nice.

http://www.layonaraonline.com/forums...osts=1&start=1 Please change the age of the character.

Your 5 points above are just fine. Make sure you keep in mind that the racial skin is given AFTER your character is created so stats will be adjusted and must abide by the rules (including the intelligence since you are getting four ears).

You are approved for the ears, ask in game for any ears you do not have and point them to this thread.

Once you change the age this will be approved--you should make the character at least 40 and judging by what I read here probably 45 or more.

Default Re: New Character: Anika Ryverwynde

K... Can't wait to join. I guess double checked... she'll get +2 Wis and -4 Char... it's okay to have just 6 Char, right?
Base (gn +dpg)+(CP) = Total
Str 8 (-2+0)+(6) = 12
Dex 8 (0+2)+ (0) = 10
Con 8 (2-2)+ (6) = 14
Wis 8 (0+2)+ (0) = 10
Int 8 (0+0)+ (16) = 18
Cha 8 (0-4)+ (2) = 6

That's correct right?

Yes, that would be fine, you can't have anything less than an 8 on any other stat though so keep that in mind. And that is after the adjustments.
