| 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!

|  Using Layonara RSS with Feedreader
The forums are equipped with RSS capabilities now for registered users. It used to be only the forums that were guest viewable were accessible, but I've changed it so you must pass in your login details. This way you will get notification of new posts in all the forums in which you have access.
Here are some steps for feeding new posts with the popular RSS reader called Feedreader. - Download and install FeedReader.
- Press F12 to bring up the Options dialog.
- Under Behaviour on the General tab, set When I click a weblink to Open link in default browser.
(Optionally set any other preferences you like.) - Press OK on the Options dialog.
- Press F3 to add a new feed.
- At the top of the application window should be a text entry line, copy and paste the following URL into it:
http://forums.layonara.com/external.php?type=RSS2
- Press the Ok button to the right of the text entry field.
- You will be prompted for your username and password, which are your forum credentials.

Also, for the Unix-y folks out there, you can use "liferea" which is almost identical to FeedReader in look and feel though obviously it's not the same application so the shortcuts are different and so forth. Should be fairly self explanatory though.
Ubuntu/Debian: Quote: |
sudo apt-get install liferea
| RedHat/Fedora: Gentoo: Mandriva: Mac OS X (via MacPorts): Quote: |
sudo ports install liferea
