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 The Riddle

Soggy steps shall trail thy way
Weeping shall thou start thy day
All shall perish in thy midst. Many which have cometh before
Prayeth that they could leave once more
Oh returneth from whence thou came! Filled with horrors
Swamped in rain
Try not, for it shall be in vain. Oh return from whence thou came!
Return or thou shall be ashamed
Mark these words, and heed them true Smartness might just see thou through. Call the lightning
Answer thunder
Vortices shall tear asunder Eternal unrest will be your doom
Once one enters this place of gloom Fear the water
Ware the air
In this place thou shall despair None can rest in blissful sleep
Despair will make the heavens weep
Smartness might just see thou through. //if you don't know what this is, ask around

Only thing I'm annoyed about is that I actually tried the first letter thing first after we left Pranzis. Missed the first "soggy..." thing from my journal though so it started with a "wampof" instead of "swampof" so I left it at that.. Doh.

Fiend and I thought I had it too LOL ;-)

Does help if you put it into your journal with the right line breaks. Probably still would not have got it though. No idea where those places are :-(

Can you imagine if we would have gone back to the rift... He was probably already sitting in his chair laughing at us.
