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.

Default The Paladin and the Minstrel

Hi there

well here is a little thing i wrote after trying layonara for the first time. This is based on a trip to the crypts in Hlint. Look me up in-game and i am sure Geir will tell you all about it over a mug of ale at the inn


The Paladin and the minstrel

In a town so serene,
a plague was growing unseen.
Undead roamed the crypts of town,
and most men did upon that frown.

Two strangers met and thought,
to end the plague they sought.
One a paladin strong and bold,
the other a minstrel who a story told.

Into the crypts they went,
with light from heavens sent.
Sir Rolf held forth his sword,
and forward strode the courageous lord.

In the darkest crypt they found,
a creature there was bound.
A creature dark as night,
with eyes that were glowing bright.

Undead servants it had,
but it mattered not a tad.
Into the fray they went,
so the creature to darkness could be sent.

But alas the minstrel fared not well,
the creature took him to hell.
As the minstrel was torn from this place,
Sir Rolf smashed the creatures face.

As dust settled the plague was no more,
the essence of the creature the paladin bore.
A hero, fair and strong he is,
the minstrel we sure will miss.

Their names will sound in every hall,
the minstrel and Sir Ridderwall.
