Introduce Yourself Take the time to say hello and introduce yourself and maybe ask a question or two.


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 Greetings and all that

Hi there. I'm considering submitting a character for approval and all that, so I figured I'd stop by and say hi.

So... Hi.
There we go. Wasn't that hard.

I've been roleplaying in City of Heroes for about a year now when suddenly a friend of mine mentioned good ol' Neverwinter Nights. Another friend of mine came to me, totally unrelated, and asked if I wanted do a little RP in NWN. Long story short, I got this place recommended, did some reading and I must say that I like what I see.

Expect to see more of me, sometime soon

Things move a little slower here than in City of Heroes, but if you like story and a rich world that you can actually affect and change, then you'll enjoy Layo. Check out the quests on the calendar, and if you have any questions, feel free to PM me.

Both the fact that I can actually affect the world, as well as the fact that it simply is more immersive than an MMO, speaks in favor of Layo.

I'll probably be reading up on some lore before I really get started though.

Thanks for the attention, see you soon

Just a quick question and a comment.

First, how long does it usually take for a character to be approved? Not to stress anyone, I know the approves have plenty on their hands and a life outside the game as well, I'm just curious

Secondly, I've been reading a lot of the lore, rules and that kind of thing and I must say, I'm VERY impressed and looking more and more forward to being a part of this immense project. Especially because this world is open to change; characters who try hard have a good chance at actually leaving their mark upon the world which is not something you see everywhere. Furthermore, people seem eager to help and very friendly.

Major kudos to the community, the DMs and Leanthar for creating and contributing to what seems like the best RPPW around

To answer your question: minutes to days, usually less than a week.
