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 At the gates the enemy drew...

At the gates the enemy drew,
Hacking and slashing many they slew.
Hinges buckling, wood splintering,
At the gates the enemy drew.

A cry of terror from the wall,
The gates did crack, and down they fall.
Swords were drawn, bows were strung.
At the gates the enemy drew.

Through the gate they did flow,
Impossible to stop, impossible to slow.
Defenders stood firm, was it enough,
The enemy alas was too tough.

Many were injured many were slain
Their relentless assault continued again
They purged the keep, killed the lord
Snapped the spear blunted the sword

All was quiet on the hill
The old man stood watching still
The burning keep upon the sky
Brought a tear to his eye

On that eve the sky was red,
As though it remembered the dead.
As the keep burned and fell,
As tolled the midnight bell.
