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.

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!

*Ellis passes by the poster and reads it carefully. There is a distinict smile on her face and a noticably more vigorous spring in her step*

*She quickly writes at the bottom before departing*

Don't count out the half-orc Muhkuman; I bet it's involved too.

* Barion reads one off the posters on his travels and sighs shaking his head *

" so now even one off the faiths hero's chooses to take things in his own hands instead of reporting to the officials off Rofirein and letting them handle and investigate the case , using their resources and man-power . I wonder how this will be looked upon by the clergy and Knights "

* he copies the poster and sends it in to the Rofirein officials *

*A hooded man in blue reads the notice a few times under the cover of night and shakes his head a bit. Someone near enough to him might hear him speak a few words under his breath.*

Foul deeds, my friend, but after all these years you still call it witchcraft?

*There's a slight smirk that fades as he takes down the three names, and a description of one of them.*

Dear Mr. Kobal,

I am writing this in response to your accusations. I have spoken to one of the hardened criminals as I was leading him to one of the strongholds. He confessed everything on our long trip there.

He said that he and the others were going to go digging for some old ruins. Now if he knew they were yours or not, I don't particularly care. If they were yours, then you should have gotten them already. But anyway, he said that you rudely interrupted their meeting before they left for the dig site. Perhaps if you had explained yourself in a more intellectual and polite manner, they would not have gone.

I was also thinking that maybe they were not clear that the area they were going to dig in was a sacred place. If this is true, maybe some signs of warning would be a little more appropriate.

Just because you follow Vorax, doesn't mean everyone does nor do they agree on his ways. What is sacred to you is your business and may not be sacred to others. Why put out a bounty to try to draft other people in to do your dirty work? This is a job for followers of Vorax, not the general population.

As for witchcraft, I think everyone uses the Al'noth these days; even the fighters on the frontline. Heck, I bet you use it too.

I was told that only one dwarf fell, the captain. The others ran like little puppies with their tails between their legs. However cute that sounds for puppies, it is neither cute nor honorable for the followers of Vorax.

After hearing his side, I think this is a way that you have come up with to restore some of your pride from running.

In the end, I found his side more believable, so I let him go.

Thanks and have a great day!

In Ilsare love,
Ami

Shiff, honey bun, that would be a 'no'. I think he showed you that at the crossroads when he beat your insides out with about a one and one-quarter swing of his axe. From what I heard, you fell like a wet rope. Please, do not try it again.

Take care and be smart,
Ami

* Lin'da sends a letter to the Runic Anvil - Attention Kobal Bluntaxe *

I am glad to hear that you are alive and well. Further it troubles me that these indiviuals would turn to force to try and escape whatever punishment they had in store.

If you need any assistance in the Al'noth, in either apprehending or finding these criminals, please do not hessitate to draw on my expertise in this matter.

Sincerly
Lin'da Sul'kolindo
