Title: Character Creation and submission
Post by: SamualACarver on December 23, 2007, 11:52:04 AM

I am totally new to NWN.  I found Layonara from another web site.  It looked totally awesome.  So I purchased NWN so I could play on Layonara.  I havent created a character for NWN before.  Where do I create a character to submit to Layonara?  Do I make the character on NWN then upload it to Layonara?  I found the Submission Wizard, but where/how exactly do I create the actual character that I will play on Layonara?

Thanks in advance for the help

Make sure you have NWN and both expansion sets
 
 Download the haks from the download page and place them in the right place in your NWN files - [not hard I'm a PC dufus and I figured it out] From here : http://forums.layonara.com/local_links.php
 
 Check out the New Player tab above for the FAQ http://forums.layonara.com/faq.php?faq=layonara#faq_layonara_faq
 
 Cruise to the submissions forum and look around.   You need to come up with a backstory for your character. One that fits the world and is appropriate for a level 1 character. Check out this post for information : http://forums.layonara.com/character-submissions/114377-guidelines-characters-submissions-prestige-classes-other-information.html
 
 The FAQ section will tell you how to connect to the game.  Your character is created on your computer but stored in our Server vault.
 
 If you are new to NWN I suggest you play a bit of the single player to get a feel for the mechanics - both moving and fighting but also using the chat bar and creating differnent types of characters to see what you'd like to play.
 
 This is a good resource if you are new to Role playing in general:  The Role-Player's Guide to Multiplayer Neverwinter Nights -- Neverwinter Nights 2 Vault (http://nwvault.ign.com/View.php?view=Other.Detail&id=501)
 
 Settle in, check out the  Lore section of the forums to help flesh out your story and get thinking.  
 
 See you in game :)
 
 Remember you cannot play a character until it has been approved
