Greetings,

This is Legasus from Rogue Dao Studios.

I am a part of a team that is putting together a new single-player campaign for Neverwinter Nights 2 named the Planescape Trilogy. We are visiting all of the most popular NWN1 Roleplay worlds and letting everyone know about a new concept our team has in module development.

Basically, we are casting the Planescape Trilogy campaign like a movie.
There is an open casting call on the forums. Anyone can "audition" to have their character included as an NPC in the modules of the campaign. Some players from the community will have their PCs cast as potential adventuring companions for the main player character. Other players' PCs will be cast as major and minor NPCs in the storylines, as well as in a variety of cameo roles.

As the web becomes a more powerful tool for individuals to create virtual personae, people will begin to recognize the value of socially-networked artistic creations. Casting a NWN2 campaign with NWN community members' player characters is the next logical step. That's the scoop.

So, if you are interested in applying to have your PC converted to use as an NPC in this campaign, here's what you do:

1) Go to our website at http://www.roguedao.com

2) Post up your vitals in the PC-NPC Conversion thread on the forums.

3) We'll notify everyone sometime around mid-to-late October regarding all of the casting decisions.

Thanks for taking an interest,
Legasus

Here is some info on the project itself:

Rogue Dao Studios announces the Planescape Trilogy

September 25, 2006 -- Rogue Dao Studios announces the Planescape Trilogy, a massive campaign set in the Infinite Planes for Obsidian Entertainment's Neverwinter Nights 2. The Planescape Trilogy will deliver up to 45 hours of gameplay, 16 adventuring companions, an epic main plot and a slew of dynamic side quests.

"We expect the Planescape Trilogy to be the must-play adventure once everyone is finished with the NWN2 Original Campaign," - Montgomery Lee Markland, Executive Producer.

The first module, PT: Purgatorio, will hit the vault in December 2006, just in time for the holiday season. PT: Inferno will be released mid-Spring; PT: Eschatologia will be released next Summer.

The Development Team

We've put together a twelve-person team comprised of some of the most practiced designers and custom content generators in the community.

The team counts a half-dozen PW admins among the ranks. We've got the lead designers of a Hall of Fame PW, Myth Drannor, the lead designer from a PW that should be on the Hall of Fame (Gatecrashers); and some of the best and brightest level designers, sourcebook material experts and jacks-of-all trades available in the community.

The team members have, collectively, around twenty years of NWN design experience between them. Thousands of NWN players have enjoyed the fantastic worlds that these individuals have created. Now they are going to turn their collectively energies towards producing the finest single-player campaign possible.

Hi folks, get those submissions to them. It would be cool to see your characters in a single player module.

@hellblazer. You didn't follow their request on the format.

I know you didn't enter the server and yours looks different than others so not sure what to tell you.

Was going to submit Karn, just for flavour, but first, is this set in the planes, if so I assume we would submit PC's from various worlds? Basically I'm wondering whether to submit Karn as is, or to alter his backstory to incorporate what they are looking for?
Any advice?
Thanks

Done.

As good an excuse as any for Zug's disappearance.
