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.

|  Question about CDQ's
With the new system, how long does one have to wait to request another CDQ after the previous one is done? |  |   | |

I would think that it is never too soon to start the planning stage, the DM you choose will let you know where things fall into thier schedule of events, and you can both come up with something that makes sense.
Just what I would assume.

| RE: Question about CDQ's
The waiting period is 1 CDQs per 2 months. That meaning 1 CDQ shot can last a couple of sessions. So even if you request only one it doesn't mean that you only get one scheduled session but as long as that series of "events" is running then you are good.
However when the DM dictates that that series of events is over you will have to wait the two month period to apply again. And that means that it can be at any stopping point even if you did not achieve your ultimate goal.
Example:
Johnny wants to become the best chef in lower mistone.
The DM schedules the event. He has 4 objectives to defeat in his head for Johnny to become the best chef.
Johnny is told of objective number one (or he finds out, whatever). He spends 3 sessions doing objective number 1 and finally he is succesful.
Johnny is still not the best chef in lower mistone, however for this 2 month period no more quests will be run for Johnny to reach that objective since the DM deemed appropriate to end it there.
In addition to this there is a maximum on sessions that a player can have during that 2 month period, that max sessions, well hehe that part I haven't thought about but I'll generally just ask the DM whats up and why are they running so many for that one player and so on. Sorta of a one on one basis.
So I hope that answers your question.

| RE: Question about CDQ's
 Does that count for ECDQs aswell? Like suppose I'm level twenty and I have submitted my ECDQ request and they say it may take a month so I decide that my character needs to get sorta a kick start towards his ECDQ, so I do a CDQ. Would I then have to wait two more months for the ECDQ or no?

It's 2 months for the player, not character. So you can't first have a CDQ with Bob the fighter and then another with Rob the rogue in a week. Gotta wait for 2 months.
Just because the team would rather not get too swamped with CDQs. As much fun as they are, we need to be able to run other stuff too. | | | | |
