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 Krais Kerwind

Name: Krais Kerwind
Age: 170
Class(es): Wizard - Transmutation
Race: Elf
Subrace: Gray Elf
Alignment: Neutral Good
Deity: Lucindra

Short Bio/Description

Description:
Krais stands no taller than the average Gray Elf. He is young in terms of elfish life spans, but he is far smarter than most gray elves. He’s hair is a pure white, and he’s skin isn’t as pale as most of the gray elves.

Personality/Attitude:
Unlike most Gray Elves, Krais loves learning about the world around him. He is not very sociable, but those who know him well know that he is very protective of those he loves and holds dear and is actually a very nice guy.

Background:
Krais Kerwind was born in the year 1217, a time that Sinthar Bloodstone was forgotten. Krais grew up in the peaks of Voltrex, hidden from the rest of the world by the powerful illusion’s that hide the proud and noble race of Gray Elves. Krais loved to learn, and spent hours on end listening and learning from the mountain villages elders.

Krais was 127 when Bloodstone returned to Layonara. In the many hears after he heard many tales of Bloodstones return, and that’s when he’s interest in the outside world began to grow. He knew though, that if he was to go out and adventure, he would need to be able to defend himself, and he could not with just his vast knowledge of history. It was in the year 1354 that he began to try and work out what form of fighting still he wanted to learn.

Krais knew that he wasn’t as strong compared to the other Gray Elves, so he knew straight away that it had to be a magical form of protection that he needed. It wasn’t until 1358 that he decided which school of magic he would train himself in. At first Krais was split between illusion and Transmutation. He knew that all the Gray Elves he lived with all studied illusion, and he realized, that if he was to become known, and to become more powerful than any Gray Elf had ever been, he would have to make he’s own footsteps in the sand of time, and not follow those that have already been left and learn transmutation.

Krais was forced to leave the peaks of Voltrex, as if he were to learn the arts of transmutation, he would have to find a teacher. After saying he’s farewells, Krais headed for Amluarial as he had heard it was a great city full of powerful wizards, but first he took a detour and went to the forest of Dartoriadin as he wished to collect some herbs to give as a gift to the wizard that was prepared to train him. Upon entering the forest, he could sense something was watching him. He walked cautiously to where the herbs were growing, and it was then that he remembers that Dartoriadin was protected by wood elves. As he stood there thinking of a way that he could take these herbs with out upsetting the wood elves, an arrow pierced the floor in front of him. Krais quickly realized that that had been a warning shot, so as he turned quickly, he’s caped fluttered, covering he’s body, and it was then that we grabbed a handful of herbs and walked out of the forest without the wood elf noticing.

Upon arriving at Amluarial, he was amazed to finally see in person this great wall of wind. He stood there dazed for a good 10 seconds before a figure appeared, as from no where. The strange figure looked at Krais up and down and then said “I know why you are here Krais” Krais stood there stunned for a few seconds and then replied “Then will you allow me to enter Amluarial and find myself a master?” Many days past by, full of many tests. It wasn’t until the fifth day of he’s arrival that admittance into the city had been approved and he entered the great city in search of a master to teach him Transmutation.

Finding a new master in the great city of Amluarial was no easy task. Many weeks did it take for Krais to finally find a master that would teach him and he soon got into he's new masters good books by supplying the herbs from Dartoriadin which he had kept fresh using a secret he’s grandfather taught him. He’s master was a wizard named Tel’rai Lifos. Krais trained under Tel’rai for 29 years. Krais was an extremely fast learner and was brewing potions and practicing spells faster than most apprentices in Amluarial.
It was in the year 1368 that Krais first learned to summon a familiar. A pixie named Kray. Krais and Kray soon became good friends, although Tel’rai was shocked at first that Krais would become friends with he's familiar, but he soon got used to it.

In the year 1387, during the evening that a great shadow had covered the world, his master Tel’rai died, leaving a letter on the mantle piece for Krais. In this letter, Tel’rai told Krais to travel to a small town called Hlint on the island of Mistone, as it would be here, that he’s adventure would truly begin.
Krais knew that if he left Voltrex, he would never be allowed to return, so he made sure that he's family knew that they would never see him again and so he left, heading for the island of Mistone.....

Approved as long as you remember that Voltrex is a closed continent and when Krais leaves it, he won't be able to return. The server IP is 64.127.106.68 and the password is layoplayer
Layonara can also be found under Roleplay on gamespy.
