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.

Default Aelayenn Hathwaynn char submission

I hope this has everything I need I saw a post about rangers I think but can't find it now. If not let me know and I'll tweak it.
Concept Forest avenger: primal ranger type who avenges nature
Bio:
Aelayenn Hathwaynn grew up in the Ulambree Forest. Her tribe wandered the area from the tower of Fire to the tower of Earth. As is the way of her people Aelayenn follows and worship Kithairien the runner. She took his teachings to heart at an early age never relying on others for survival since she was first able to draw a bow and hunt. She embraced nature in all its forms never killing more then she or her tribe needed. Always following the laws of nature no man. Patiently waiting for opportunity and when it came acting swiftly and wasting no time. She developed a natural affinity for nature, animals, and the bow. Often she would cull the sick and weak animals to ensure the herd remained strong being merciful to injured animals helping if possible and offing a swift painless death if not. Spending allot of time alone hunting Aelayenn developed a high level of stealth and cunning as well as unsurpassed tracking skills for her tribe.
Remaining true to Kithairien and wanting to live free Aelayenn slowly grew more and more distant from her tribe spending more and more time alone in the woods hunting and communing with nature. Many in her tribe were sure she would grow to become a druid and she had the makings of a fine druid, but Aelayenn took a more militant stance in the defense of nature and instead follows the path of a Dark stalker of primal ranger.
When Aelayenn was the tender age of 55 nearly a lifetime ago it seems she came upon a band of goblins defiling her forest as she saw it. They were slaughtering many animals and cutting down a great many trees to form a new village after they had split with their former village and their were about 30 goblin capable of fighting and another 15 women and children. Alone and ready to lay down her life to protect the forest she prayed, “Oh great hunter, grant me your wisdom to know how and when to strike and your speed and strength, that I might be swift and scatter these many foes of the forest.” Kithairien answered but not as she expected. Instead Kithairien showed her how to become death incarnate to the goblins with hit and run guerilla tactics. Hiding in the shadows and moving among them undetected and striking with a few rapid shots and vanishing and switching to a new position in the confusion. Moving with near blinding speed and riding the shadows. Following Kithairien’s instructions she was able to throw the goblins into a panic striking first from the rear then the left, constantly moving before the goblins found her. Quickly the goblins broke and fled. Aelayenn spent the next week tracking each goblin down and killing it. For a short time it was like she was the living embodiment of the forests vengeance. How ever with the death of the last goblin her newfound skill faded but she was changed forever. The forest had a champion and Kithairien a devout zealot set to defend nature with her dying breath. For the next 35 years she would put everything she could remember of that time to practice and became a accomplished tracker and hunter but has so far never been able to match her speed or shadow movements again. A natural ranger Aelayenn has since perfected her skill in the forest and plains. She has also studied the ways of the rogue and shadow dancer trying always to attain that level she once possessed for a few short days. Aelayenn knows that in stealth and shadow lays the way of the forest avenger the primal hunter. Knowing this and having spent the remainder of her childhood trying to recapture it she has decided to strike out to other lands and see if she can learn the skill elsewhere seeking those that make their living in the shadows the rogue and shadow dancers.

Full Name: Aelayenn Hathwaynn
Age: 90
Classes: Ranger5/rogue5/shadow dancer10 if SD is approved then otherwise 8/12
Race: Elf
Subrace: Wild Elf
Alignment: CG
Deity: Kithairien
2 Domains (if cleric):
Description: Still very young at 90 she slowly drifted farther and farther away from her tribe and has decided to seek her answers else ware. 4’6” tall and 92 lbs. Aelayenn has wild uncombed hair or raven black and dark tanned skin. Her eyes are very keen and light brown. She has many tattoos most depicting animals she has hunted or befriended and one of a shadow hunting a goblin on her left shoulder. She always has her bow and a full quiver with her usually on her back unstrung unless she is hunting or suspects danger then she strings it. She is fond of small quick weapons such as daggers and short swords but also favors the spear and scimitar. Her clothing and armor is hand made or animals she hunted and killed, and the tribe tanned and made the clothing. It is fine looking in dull browns and grays with a few streaks of black. She has tied feathers to the ends of her weapons including her bow. Most feathers are eagle or hawk thought the feathers on her dagger is a ravens for she thinks that is fitting that if reduced to fighting a prolonged fight with a dagger you will pry need that raven to guide your spirit. She likes to run and runs when ever possible because Kithairien is The Runner. She is even tempered and generous to those she likes and earns her trust. Aelayenn is brave, fearless, optimistically happy, arrogant, proud, a bit haughty as is the way of elves but she really tries to understand others and not belittle them, she also has a curious streak and can be contemplative and withdrawn especially before a battle while she prepares herself and uses the Elvin revelry to relive the goblin battle. In battle or when dealing with evil she is very focused and has little mercy on evil or the enemy.
Favored enemy 1 is of course goblins

Good Bio.
Approved as Ranger/Rogue. You will need to apply later to be a shadowdancer and only if the RP in the game brings your character in that direction. You will have a better chance of having a shadowdancer approved if you keep a character development story. At the time you got to a shadowdancer you will need to have a CDQ run.
