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. Registration is fast, simple and absolutely free. So please. join our community today!

Default New Character Submission - Raidoun Shadowood

Character: Raidoun Shadowood
Age: 110
Gender: Male
Class: Rogue
Race: Elf
Alignment: True Neutral



Biography:

Raidoun is the product of a country torn by war. He does not know where the location to his previous home is, as his family fled it in some distant battle that eventually took the lives of both of his parents; his father fell protecting them from undead in Gloom Wood, his mother, poisoned from the encounter, later died from sickness in their new home in Silkwood Forest. A young elf then at 92, he stayed there for a short while longer and witnessed the blotting of the sun before taking to the road; both to survive the death of the vegetation and to seek solace in the hard-packed dirt. He lives from inn to inn, taking whatever job pays. Raidoun has become canny in order to insure his own survival, and whether he was born dead of heart or made so through his trials is unknown. He cares neither for laws nor does he try to break them, survival is key; his only constant. He is unlikely to act on another's behalf, his heart is empty of compassion, but neither would he hurt someone with cause. His actions, while not so much random, are difficult to predict. Arriving in this new city is just another step in the travels of a lost soul seeking something he doesn't understand.

Hello Raidoun,

This is a great start on your character. If we could see a little development into his character I think you will be set to enter the world of Layonara. There are a few portions of recent history that have with out a doubt affected one and all across the lands. For instance from 1402 to 1420 the whole of the skies were darkened bringing out about starvation and the deaths of millions.

Another bit to help flesh this character out would be to choose the city or area where Raidoun began his life. For aid here is a map of Mistone, but please feel free to explore any of the other continents as an option, but please be certain to look into the Layonara of the area a bit before diving in.

Thank you in advance for your extra work on this!

I would approve this now but for one little issue. He cant be from the Hallowlight Forest (you will find out why when you are in game). May I suggest the Silkwood forest instead?

Ok, I have changed the location. Funny, because Silkwood was my first choice anyways.

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!

Default Edit- Raidoun Shadowood

Sorry, made the character and misspelled the name as 'Raidoun Shadowod' I'm not sure if it's an easy fix or if I have to remake the character. I tried to contact a DM in game, but since that didn't work, I have posted here. Sorry again for the inconvenience.
