Roleplaying Discuss tips, resources, and concerns with roleplay both inside and outside the Layonara community.


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 Mistone PC-based Newspaper

I wanted to do something like a newsrag. Something on the forums where a team of "reporters" can post interesting information about quests, Plot NPCS, etc. Just wanted to bounce the idea and get some help before I put any effort into it myself.

Key will be doing this for sure, however.

I think it is a good idea. I know it was tried before but one never even got released as it is a long, tedious job. I would certainly support it.

Well, it would just be putting what I do with Key on paper. She sells information. And I spend a good amount of time going around town just listening to whats going on.

Also a good way to keep people updated on quests. Guess I'll keep this up for a week or two, see who is interested, then get to work.

Nice idea. It'd really help out those who can't/don't get IG enough to get the scoop. It'll be convenient to know what evil guy is going to try to destroy the world next. Kinda likeÂgiving outÂwarning leaflets before you drop an Atomic Bomb.

Perhaps a particularly charismatic rogue or bard could be an "information broker" my cleric would pay some gold to get the facts of Lucinda's tumult with some kind of confirmation.

Just a RP idea.

Devinion the humble bard is apt and well skilled for such a venture, he would make a fine addition to a information gatherer. We shall see.

I tried to get people going on this, and I'd rather not do it alone (personally because Id rather write a paper for my classes, than write a pretend newspaper here.) If one of you two want to pick it up, please do so.
