| 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.

He's dead, Jim.
Sorry, someone had to do it. 
Yeah, besides the over-the-top portrayal of Capt. Kirk, Scotty was definitely among my favorite characters in the entire Star Trek franchise.
Rest in Peace, Mr. Scott |  | | |

| Nah, they'll just get a nameless guy wearing yellow to do it every time. And they'll all die to a static discharge resonance burst each time too. You know, because they don't have a last name and nobody loves them anyway. | | | | |

Definitely sad to see the man go. Scotty was one of the most entertaining characters Star Trek has ever had; always getting drunk on the job, flipping out on the bridge during negotioations, getting into bar fights with klingons and arguing with the captain about every time he wanted to gear the ship up to overdrive. Furthermore, what I liked most about him was that even though Kirk was the captain, Scotty always called the Enterprise his ship, his baby. He'd probably take it to fisticuffs if Kirk slapped a bumper sticker on the hull without his approval.
*sighs* some very memeorable moments with this man. I certainly hope that he is happy now free from that horrible, deabilitating disease. There are few things more emotionally deveastating to a person than losing their mental facualties to Alzheimer's. | | | | |
