| 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.

|  That time of the year again: Daylight Saving
Hi,
It's that time of the year again, the switch to Daylight Savings. Unfortunately, it doesn't happen everywhere at the same time, Europe switches the last Sunday of March (so tomorrow), but most ofNorth America switches the first Sunday of April. (And to make things more confusing, in 2007, the US will change the second Sunday of March, long live standardization...).
So it's going to be that week again where people show up early, or arrive late for quests  Next week, all will be well again!
For more info on when countries switch, go here: http://webexhibits.org/daylightsaving/b.html

Ah! DST... Love that!
(to be even more confusing, some countries use "double DST" and some haven't got it at all...)

Is it any wonder why we still fight wars? We can't even agree on time changes.
Why cant we all just get along?

Zen - Don't you miss the fact that Hawaii does not observe Day Light Savings?
