| Wild Surge Inn This forum is to the place to go to speak in character about things in the game, spin tales, or...Please keep this In Character (IC) at all times. | | 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.

| A Warning!!! *posted at all the Inns*
Two nights ago I passed through the Broken Forest; I have never seen the oak trees so butchered. This has to stop before something is done about it. Before nature does something about it!

| RE: A Warning!!! *Posts a note attached to this one*
Butchered? Howso? By what? What has to stop?
I humbly suggest that the author use more precise and descriptive language to articulate their point, rather than leave vague annonymous messages that could be interpreted as implied threats to beings unknown for actions unnamed.

| RE: A Warning!!! *An silver haired gentleman stops and reads the note and laughs* Dear me, I say... for all the seriousness of this notice, I wonder how our "benifactor" missed the absurdity of this claim in light of the paper it's written on.. *chuckles to himself and leaves the notice unmolested for others to enjoy it's humor*

| RE: A Warning!!! *Reads all the notes on the wall and shakes her head, then makes her own note*
I must agree with Lushen on this. The balance is being disturbed when the trees are cut to the ground instead of taking just what you need and leaving them to heal so that they will always be there to be used again and again.
Oh and in reference to snickers of where the parchment comes from: Some of us have the skill to look down and find the wood that has already fallen to the ground and use it to make parchment instead. As i did for this letter.

| RE: A Warning!!! //Hey Kae ... Lushen did not sign his name to the letter  iIt is a na unknown author.
*Vellyn notcied the letter and the replies and wondered why people would be so willing to remove the life from the Forests just to make wooden weapons. Especially since those of nature had said there was a way to get the needed pieces without killing. It may only be a tree to some, but to Aeridin everything was life and thus held his love. Vellyn shook his head and walked away* | | |

| RE: A Warning!!! I agree with the warning to many trees have been taken down in the prime of their lives to make silly artifiacts for man. Be careful nature has a very strange way of defending herself. It is not to say if you can not find loose peices of wood by all means cut a FEW branches off it will help the forest to grow strong and beautiful, just don't chop the enitre tree down.
