Rumour Has It This forum will be used by players and GM's to post gossip (in character) about what is happening in the world as it happens. IE, outcomes of quests, attacks on towns etc.


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.

Looking for information into the murder of Sil'via In'Darsus

If you have any information regarding this case please report it to the authorities immediately.
One named Jon Heinrich has been arrested under suspicion of working with others which led to the death.
A trial will be held at a later date when more suspects involved have been confirmed.

Your help and assistance looking into this is most welcomed.

*tacked on below the notice*

Information Update:

There were two others involved in the murder, Jon Heinrich had confessed to conspiring to murder Sil'via. The two others and Jon proceeded to take shelter in the ire mountains, within the a temple there.
Jon confessed to worshiping an evil god and has not confirmed if the others are, although suspicions point to Jon and a robed man most likely being part of the same religious group.

Any details in relation to shi, again would help our investigations.

// Never said temple of Corath or anything like that, said, I have an unfavored deity, and I fled to a sort of "safe" area, one that is like a temple to me

aka- Never said anything about Corath, the guard "knew"

My apologies on this matter, hopefully it gets cleared up.

// I hope this clears things up further, Jon Heinrich from the information gathered has been determined from what he had said that he took shelter in the temple in the ire mountains.
Also stated he worshiped an unfavoured God, an unforgiving, evil one.

I think this leaves little for the guard to guess about the corathites being involved.

It's not hard to put 2 + 2 together.

i can point out one of the others, but i doubt he's stupid enough to go near me. But if he shows himself i will drag him to hempsted and to the guards. I never seen his face, but i remember his voice.

// Eh, I though the Corath temple was secret? So the guard wouldn't know?

My character did not rat out the temple or say others worshiped the deity.

I guess they do know then, otherwise the guard wouldn't have asked my char. questions about it.

// you guys are forgetting some things
your always together
the temple location may be a secret but rumors have been around for years of one someplace in the ires
anyone who has ever seen jon knows he runs about with a mage and a paladin, and maybe a soon to be fallen paladin since he has been aiding suspected now known to be evil god followers

just my two cents though

its makashi who has the final say over this as its from his quest

Dalan wonders by and sees the notice that has been posted. His eyes light up with a firery rage as he strokes "Tempest".

De foul creatures have harmed de lass. Me thinks they might not make it to justice though I suppose dat be what should happen to dem. I wonder if dis be de same temple lookin buildin I found buried in de mountains on one of me trips? It had a most foul stench about it and evil creatures parading around de double doors. It turned me stomach so when I entered dat I dinna go but a few steps within.

With these words to himself, he moves off to find Captain Trent and the family of his "niece".

the proof is in hand, though you may not wish to see and hear such

the third was seen, spoken and known to be around those now in question

a tunic aquired from his temple, shall be given upon a meeting place

//Although you "found" the temple mechanically, you have not found it technically and therefore cannot get into it or know the location therof. I'm sure a GM would be happy to explain this to you. As was explained to me more than once by more than one GM, despite having easily found it in the mountains mechanically, I have not actually found it myself, until I was shown, it is also to be treated as a guild house, with no entry allowed by non members without permission, just giving you a headsup.

//hum all guild hall are given keys to the guild leader (must be purchased from the real estae agent) who then makes copies of the keys, where the door are closed and locked (the option to leave it open is still there). I seem to remember a post somewhere about the one who had the temple built wanting it to be closed off and locked, and it was refused because it was a temple.

Every where in game there is temple that can be found either by pure luck or by being shown. It would be total nonsense, unless there is a precise warning message ICly in game stating that the person does not see the temple because it is warded by illusions, that it would not be found by anyone that is not from that faith.

I go by this line of thought, unless there is precise GM notes in game or on the forum, Icly, that says something isn't there, then it is until proven otherwise.

So based on that it is highly probable that the temple would have been found. Now would Dalan know that it is exactly a temple of Corath unless he went deeper and talked with the people inside? Probably not, but with the things he is hearing now, he could make 1 +1 = 2
