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 Submission - Perigrin Janger

Character: Perigrin Janger
Age: 20
Gender: Male
Class: Rogue
Race: Halfling
Alignment: Chaotic Good



Biography:

You see, Perigrin Janger was a normal halfling child, with a normal halfling upbringing, in a normal halfling house on the rolling plains of Dregar ; but Perigrin didn't see it that way. To Perigrin the world had been unfair to his father. After all it had taken his wife in childbirth and left him to raise a boy on his own. The world had beaten down a good man with good morals for no reason but cruelty... at least that is the way it seemed in Perigrin's eyes. He had watched his father struggle year after year with the harvest to have nothing to show in return. It became too much for Perigrin to bear.

His father always talked of the goodness inherent in man and how a man should always follow his heart. His father taught Perigrin his limited knowledge in the ways of the world and how to be handle himself in rough situations. The world taught Perigrin that life isn't always fair. His limited years had shown him that one can't wait for something good to happen. And experience had proven if an opportunity presents itself, no matter how small, it must be taken immediately.

Perigrin learned early in life that sometimes a person would have to do anything necessary to survive. He would sometimes sneak off the farm at night and into the local merchant's shop. He would take just enough of what was needed to provide for himself and his father but never more. His father didn't say a word but Perigrin could always see the shame in his father's eyes when he would awaken to more than he went to bed with the night before. Perhaps it was one too many of these days feeling his father's shame that finally inspired Perigrin to leave. Perhaps it was that he wanted to find his own way in life. Or, perhaps Perigrin's feeling that the world has been overlooking him too has driven him to leave. No matter the truth now. The halfling is already 10 miles from home and only a few steps away from his first adventure.

This is nice and concise. Could you add just a bit more to stress the alignment because when I read this I get NG or CG not LN.

Also when putting a deitiy in the deity field you are declaring that one above all others - not a pious as a cleric but one step down from one and one above those that might only pray to Prunilla for home and hearth related subjects. Characters that are not clerics or paladins do not need to have declared deity. But if Lady Comfort does guide him - she is Chaotic Good in nature - a long ways from Lawful Neutral.

Your character has been approved.

Server address is west.layonara.com
Password is layoplayer

Some final notes on character creation:
  • Please note that racial adjustments for players with subraces are skin based and thus get applied after getting in game.
  • Only two ability scores can be less than 10 and only one can be less than 8 after racial adjustments
  • Brownies, when selecting a head, the head you choose on the halfling selection will correspond to that numbered head for elves (for example, clicking right 6 times on the head selection during character creation will take the 6th head when clicking right on the elf creation)
  • Half-giants and ogres, please ask for a GM (type /dm Anyone here?) if you would like to change to a custom skin.

Welcome to Layonara
