| 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!

|  Donate Your Level Day
As I have mentioned before, these are an excellent idea for supporting Layonara Online. I am scheduling our next Donate Your Level Day for this coming 16 June. http://www.layonara.com/calendar.php?do=getinfo&e=203&day=2007-6-16&c=2 I am hoping we can hold these events quarterly. So I have scheduled Level Days for later in the year, September and December. Please join me in supporting our wonderful on line world! -Ylly |  |   | | The Following 12 Users Say Thank You to Yllyrryon For This Useful Post: | Chongo (05-18-07),

Donate Your Level Day is today. I hope all of you join me in participating. http://forums.layonara.com/calendar.php?do=getinfo&e=203&day=2007-6-16&c=2 Myself, I continue to donate because I am very enthusiastic about Layos future. I am very keen about this idea of developing software independent of that offered by the big gaming software companies. From what I understand, this step L and the team will take in the near future will keep Layo around long after Nwn is long gone. High on my wish list as a Layo player is this - that we can continue to enjoy Version 3 of Layonara right up to the time when we switch over to the new system presently being developed. And one very effective way to ensure this is by donating. One way to look at it - making donations is more like a good habit that you must first acquire through effort. And by this I mean that it is all too easy to spend a significant amount of time here without paying a single penny. Yet you clearly get some value or benefit if you spend a lot of time here - participating in all Layonara has to offer is something that you want to do. Now most people can be very innovative in obtaining something they really want, overcoming impediments such as being a minor, not having a credit card, or not trusting e-commerce, to name a few of the rationalizations folks have given for not donating. The short of what I am getting at is that every single one of you reading this has the ability to donate, and I ask those who do not do so to make a simple paradigm shift and start getting into the good habit of donating to support Layonara Online. You can find a way to donate; it is affordable and money well spent; and like all other good habits, you will have wished that you had cultivated the habit should you ever have to face the consequences of your failure to do so.

Tia level 11
Jacee level 10
Lisse level 7
Eve level 4

Thanks folks. I really appreciate drives like this, it goes a long way with helping to keep the costs of the game servers, database servers, forum servers, lore servers, character servers etc. under control.
This drive raised $595 over the weekend. Around the cost of 1 month of payments for all of our servers mentioned above. This really does help.
Thank you! | | | | |
