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!

Default Towers of Dregar: Xora's Vial nominated for 2007 Module of the Year!

Hello Everybody,

I am very happy to announce that the module created by the Single Player Module Team (Towers of Dregar: Xora's Vial) is up for nomination for Module of the Year (for 2007) at NwVault. The team worked many long and hard hours on the project and their efforts have been very much rewarded in both the score and the number of downloads the module has received as well as it now being nominated for Module of the Year for 2007.

Voting begins on March 1st so please vote on the module. This would help to further enhance and grow the Layonara community if we were to receive the award. It would also help even if we get many votes and do not win (but we will win if everybody votes!! *smiles*). This is a golden opportunity to download the module, play it, and then vote for it. It could bring us many more quality members to the community and they would tend to be RP type members due to the module itself being heavy on RP.

Get out there and vote, we need every vote we can get!

This is the direct link to the module:
Towers of Dregar: Xora's Vial -- Neverwinter Nights 2 Vault

This is the direct link to the annoucement of the vote:
VN Boards - 2007 NWN Module of the YEar

I want to say thank you once again to the team that created this excellent module, good job folks.

Been playing it since last week - incredible writing, engaging plots, but I'm stuck on two . I'll post that in the proper forum though!

Overall, so far, great work guys!

Hi folks,

Today is the day to go vote for this module. It would be a HUGE benefit to the community if we are able to pull off first place. It will bring a flood of players in and most of them would likely be RP'ers. Please take a few minutes to vote for this excellent module.

Thank you.

It doesn't look like voting has started yet, as you can only rate on the standard module ratings, not a separate poll/system.
And it wouldn't make sense if they continue with the ratings that got us nominated, it'd have to start from scratch.

if we get everyone to vote on the poll or not then we will get hall of fame status which will help too

we have the required downloads but we need more votes people to qualify for mod of the year and hall of fame

Hall of Fame would be important I do believe, perhaps not critical but it most certainly wouldn't hurt.

Can anyone explain to me how I am supposed to vote? I ended up voting for the module as per the normal vote, but I can't find any poll.

Or did they postpone the voting?

I do not think they opened up the voting yet.

If you check the "front page" of the website, and click on Module of the year, it only leads to a link for the list, not voting.

On the front page of the vault you'll see The module of the year logo on the bottom where you can click and then vote.

I just noticed as well that your vote will count if your login name was registered before Feb 1st 2008.
