| Layonara MMO Please use this forum to discuss the Layonara MMO. |
| 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!

I am not sure I do either. But if you are asking us to post answers in a thread that is always in the same place then check out the FAQ. I update that thread from time to time with answers that we are fairly sure will not change, or not change much *crosses fingers and smiles*
If you are asking for something else then please elaborate. | | | | |

| Re: Names
These questions should be considered important enough to answer (  ):
Will be support for at least two (first and last) names, if not more?
Can there be shared names?

Yes.
Can there be shared names?
By this I think you mean can two different players have characters with the same name. Right now, as it stands one can not have the same name as another character; they must be unique. However, Orth just implmented a new feature about a month ago that may allow us to change this answer to a yes. The real question is, do we really want it to be a yes, and I am thinking we probably don't. There are a lot of issues, engine wise and community wise, with two players having the same name; more than most realize. So it will probably remain that characters can not have the same name. | | | | | The Following User Says Thank You to Leanthar For This Useful Post: | | |

I'll comment a bit more on this when I iron out a few more details.
