| 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.

|  Giants in the Silent Watch mountains are gone!
* This poster is posted in Hlint, Fort Hope, Fort Llast and Port Hampshire. *
Because of a rift between our world and the world of shadow, immense destruction was wrought upon the Silent Watch Mountains and the surrounding areas. No giants survived what happened there. Be careful when travelling through these places. Something we do not know about might have come through, and could still be there.

*derrick looks over the dozen or so empty ale mugs on his table
Well... the giants are gone for sure... but so is everythin else. It's like when that rift was open it slowly drained away all life from that place... The giants... at least the ones we seen were staked to the ground and the shadows were slowly feeding off their life force. . . Now I killed a few giants in the Silent Watch in my time... but it were always a clean death... nothin like what them shadows done...
Yer might want to give it some thought afore plantin yer flag there... something not of this world may have already laid claim to it...
*drinks down another mug
Jus sayin... | | | | |

It would be wise for most to avoid the mountain near where the silent watch tower used to stand. ...well, it may still stand but i have not been able to verify that.
When light is lost do not travel further, for death awaits. | | | | |

*reads the notes and adds her own*
I have traveled into the Silent watch, heed these warnings with your life. The giants are gone, Satyrs I believe they are called roam the far reach forest, and near what was once the summit of Silent watch is an un-natural darkness.
This area is nearly oblivious to sight, and magic does not work properly. It is chaotic, and wild. Within the darkness lies Medusa that are un-natural, these creatures have the ability to see in this pitch blackness easily, and move with great speed through it. I was nearly killed by one I did not see before it's hissing head spat at me with it's deadly gaze.
There are also shadows, similar to humans moving about that strike with deadly accuracy. These are no mere undead, but something ... different ... I cannot say what exactly, as if they are a part of the un-earthly shadow that permeates the area.
Something is brewing within those mountains, and it is something powerful. Avoid them at all cost.
