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 - Goinus Ironfar

Character: Goinus Ironfar
Age: 40
Gender: Male
Classes: Fighter
Race: Dwarf
Alignment: Lawful Neutral



Biography:

Goinus Ironfar grew up perhaps like any other common dwarf born into these dangerous times. He was kept cloce to the halls and quarries burrowed deep into the earth watched over by his father or his breatheren of the clan. He was taught the dwarven traditions of mining, smithing, drnking, and fighting by his father as well as other members of the clan. He was also taught the dangers of duergar and the other races and creatures of the underdark and a healthy distrust of magic. He sat many a night with his father in the great halls as dwarf after dwarf bought him drink after drink while listening to others tales of his fathers battle prowess and bravery with the occasional input from his father himself. He listened intently into the night to the tales of forgien lands riches and terrors, dragons and giants, orcs and ogres, golbins and kobolds and the times that he helped defend his clans halls and communities from the duergar and their allies who seek to raid their stores kill their families and bring an end to their way of life.

Although it was fourty years ago he rembers it as if it were yesterday he was only a boy of fifteen as he stared with wonder at his father dressed in his battle gear. Their clan leader Legnus comitted himself and his best fighters to help reclaim the dwarven halls under Mt Norand from the evil that befell it. Goinus being only a boy he couldn't go with him but his father gave him this advice he said "Live life to its fullest work hard for the clan drink and make merriment with your clans men and defend our way of life even if it requires you give yours for that is the strength of dwarven kind and why we will always persevere." After the battles Legnus and most of his clansmen returned Goinus franticly looked for his father in the ranks but saw no sign of him then Legnus walked up to him and gave him the news that his father came to his end saving his life and was given full honors and burial rights for defenders of the dwaren ways such as his father and assures him that the clan will watch over him and his mother and his father will be always remembered by the clan it tales and song.

Goinus a proud and staunch defender of the Dwarven way of life begins to feel his fathers yearning for adventure. He wants to cary on his clans name, uphold his fathers ideals, honor and his memory in the bravery he displayed in the battle to reclaim the Dwarven Halls under Mt Norand from scores of undead and the bloodpool. Goinus took the loss of his father and uses it to fuel him to do his best at everything he does and inspired him to strive to become a Dwarven Defender as his father before him. As the veil of the dark ages has lifted it inspires a new hope in him as if he feels his father is looking down upon him watching his deeds with pride like only a father can.

Good start! Just a couple of things.

1. We dont approve PrCs on submission. After you meet the reqs you can apply for the PrC. You must also keep a CDT (character development thread) covering all he does that has to do with learning about DDs.

2. Please add a little more info about him. Such as a bit more about his father. How old was he when his father died? how long has his father been gone? what has he been doing since?

3. Please add a line stating that he does not come from royalty or any privilege.

Thanks

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.

have fun!
