Hey, I just wanted to say Hi to all the people who've come into this place in the one year that I've been out of it. I'm back now and I look forward to meeting and making friends or atleast aquantences with as any of you guys as I can.
My name's Jess, I'm gonna be 20 this December (oh gods Im OLD >.<), and I like...well ..Roleplay obviously. My other interests are music (singing, playing violin and viola), writing of any kind, and....I need some outdoor hobbies bad. :( I need a bike again *nodnod*
As for who I played. I really just had one character: An Illusionist named Rhynnala Asantiani with an astounding hatred for the slave trade. She's actually in hiding from the remnents of the Silver Crescent, and where she is she hasn't yet gotten the news of Sallaron's victory, though if she did she'd be proud.
Ill be playing a Mistite wizard as soon as she's approved.
I'm a 3rd year magazine journalism student, and I want to wind up writing for videogame magazines. I actually hope to, sometime before my career is done, be able to interview some of the developers here on what they're doing >.> and get a peice out about them. Who knows, maybe I can pitch it to game informer or something.
Whoah, tangent.
Anyway, I also happen to work in gaming retail , its hell, but it can be fun. No, you can't have my discounts =P!
Anyway, Ill put some contact information here, so if anyone wants to talk or anything feel free :D I don't shun anyone! =P
MSN: lynnjuniper@msn.com (lynnjuniper@msn.com)
PS: To L: Bummer about the whole server thing. That sucks. Hope you find a new host.

Hey Jess!
Glad to see you about. Probably see you IG with one of my various people.
-
Holy cow! I remember when you were in high school I think! And the times they are a changing... Can't wait to see you back in game.
-
Glad to see you back as well. I'll never forget the times Treana and Rhynn had together back in the days of the Hlint benches and such.
-
Welcome back Jess! Woo!
-
Welcome back Jess :) Always good to have a Vetern RPer around. Look forward to Rping with yah if I see yah.
-
Hey jess, I'm glad to see you are back. Hope to see you soon in game, when my new comp is up and running.
-
What can I say? Welcome back. Look forward to RP with you when you are back.
-
hey Jess and welcome back :)
-
Glad to see you around again! :) Been quite some time!
-
Nice to meet ya! *waves*
-
Glad to have you back. :)
-
Welcome back Squishy! ;)
-
Glad you're back!
-
Don't worry about Rhynn... Tyrian hides in her Inn now due to 9 Dts...
But welcome back for sure!
-
Welcome back :) Hopefully will see you about in-game, and on a few of my quests I'm planning over the next few months.
-
If I have time Ill try and come :) always liked your quests from what I saw, but I don't think I ever had the oppertunity to participate.
-
besides the one you morphed into a spider like thing. :)
-
The...You mean that creepy thing that ran at about 3 thousand mph and then everyone decided that now was their chance to seal the hole while Rhynn was inside therefore eradicating her forever?
Right...
Really hope those icky things bit it.

I thought you guys deserved my reasoning for why, even after I said I'd be playing once more, that I'm still more or less just lurking the forums. The reason while completely my fault, is what is making it harder to reintegrate into the server.
The server I still play, and DM on, is a Forgotten realms based server that is basically PG-13 border lined on R. We're allowed to get away with more in terms of grotesque evil. Our Xeenites (Sharessans if you want to get technical) Are allowed to well..be what they are, more or less. Our Loviatarans (Goddess of pain) Are allowed to hurt , and torture in the most insane ways.
Now this doesn't say anything for one server's maturity versus another's, but I'm finding it very hard, especially with my only character being neutral evil, to get myself back into the habbit of censoring my words and actions, and the longer I put it off, the harder it'll become.
The character I play on my other server is a Sharran, (Think wanting everything destroyed P-tech style, only turned into a dark void, wanting everything to be lost, and believing that to be true peace alla Buddhism.). A spiteful, harmful, cruel woman [I know right, sort of like a neutral evil Rhynn!] and an enchantress [Sort of the opposite of Rhynn!], so not doing the blatantly evil thing will be hard.
So I want to say that I've not shafted (is that a bad word, I don't even know what it means but it sounds iffy) you guys, and am not ignoring you. I do enjoy this server, I just don't think that it suits me at this time, nor will it until I can get myself into the habbit of being a PG Role player once more.
Thanks for understanding.

nice to meet you :D im new here :)

Back again...again...again
I'm 23 now...Actually made the mistite (sorc) this time...graduated college...did all of that lovely stuff. Work in the IT dungeon now....(very journalism related I know) and work for Comic Booked | Comic Book News, Reviews, Interviews and More. (http://www.comicbooked.com) as a writer and team lead for tabletop games (there's the journalism thing)..
Good to see you all again...again...again.
-
I'll keep an eye out for ya. Welcome back. (Again, again.)
-
Welcome back (again)
-
*waves* *again*
-
*waves again*
-
*waves for the first time* New dark elven blood in my case.
-
Well welcome back once more.. again.. :)
-
Welcome back again, to gain something again? gaingain gahh...

Hey,
Lurking again; I put in a new character to be approved because this is literally the only steady server I've seen in NWN that's lasted so many years now. That stability has to mean something and I'm getting bit by the NWN/D&D bug again. Let's see , what have I been doing.
Trying to live on my own as a 20something, playing Shadow Run and other pnp games with my friends, and getting my face stomped on in League of Legends pretty much makes up for all of my hobbies right now.
I'm doing technical writing now, bit of a step away from journalism, but hey, it pays and I like it....
Anyway,
Hi all of you new layonarans, Layonarans that I don't know that came after me and have been on this server longer than I have, and the few of you I actually still recognize...
Sup?
-
Welcome back... agian :) I look forward to torturing your new character mercilessly ;)
-
Didn't Shadowrun just come out with a new print of their PH?
-
@Ice: Literally that's about 80% of my reasoning for coming back. When asked by my friends and by redditors what my most memorable D&D moment was and what kept me coming back I always answer something like "Well it would have to be somewhere between the time I had a character become a Knight of Insanity representing anger...and the time that same character pissed off an extraplanar demideity so much so that she literally had a Balor thrown on her head in the middle of town" ;)....was it a balor? Or was it a pit fiend?
@Milty : no idea, tbh I literally just started with shadow run. I know next to nothing about the setting or the rules, I just mostly act the way I want my character to act and depend on other players and the Dm to help me along. :) I'm playing a "Face" right now, which is basically like the Bard/Social skills/Talk-y person. Fun times!
-
I think it was a Balor :)
-
@Milty - yes they just released 5th edition to much alcolades thus far. (and a SP video game, with an MMO to follow, all kickstarted I might add. Pretty cool.)
@Ice and Lynn - It would hav been a balor back then but now the accurate thing would be to call it a Pit Fiend. *wobbles hand* Lore change up makes some of that stuff hazy. We don't have "Balors" anymore. Speaking of that line of events they would be Pits instead of Planes etc. If it comes up IC of course. Which.... *eyes Ice* No telling... *eyes Minerva* ...seriously...

I remember that during my small stint as a writer, I attempted to make a 'plane'/'pit' that actually encompassed all of the Planar Gaurdians and Veirffey (sic?) just so that the plots would make sense in the grand scheme of the way things were changing. I don't know if anyone else ever did that after me, but if characters like (Lets see if I can do this!) Elezandor, Koralawyn, Tik'Valhulla (again, not sure there), Bao'somethingsomethingsomething, Murelle, and , of course, Keaira'tynen show up again..that would be awesome (I know there was one in Carceri too but I forgot her name :( )
-
Welcome back!
-
I know they aren't accurate to current lore. I was already looking at them to see what we could do because I absolutely loved playing all of them. Murella and Keaira were my favorites though. You were pretty good on the memory there Lynn.
They need A LOT of tweaking to their stories before they would fit to the current scheme but I as I said. I am looking into it.
Keaira'tynen - Baator
Bao'Almira - Mechanus
Zippolorania - Abyss.
Dwin'itrin - Carceri.
Koralawyn - Pandemonium
Maurelle - Abrorea
Tikvah'ulla - Celestia
Aranna - Celestia

Because I don't know where else to put this:
I'm popping back in for my yearly, semi yearly, whatever post. Not coming back or anything but wanted to basically let you guys know that I do occasionally lurk here and it is heart warming to see the same names that I remember from 10 years back. I even caught glimpse of Rowana making a mention of Sinthar Bloodstone and the war and was proudly recalling to friends "Yeah! I'm a veteran of that war" (of course , with many 'o.O' type glances and such).
I just wanted to take my podium topic here and say: Layonara is uniquely awesome in NWN servers in that it managed to maintain a feeling of family and belongingness that many servers that dropped off (and even a few that remain) never really got right. And I think that the community here is to thank as well as the awesome DMs and admins who keep it running and who for 10+ years, have managed to create an ongoing campaign that still keeps running that doesn't even base itself on an established canon (Such as Greyhawk or Forgotten Realms) but was completely born in the hearts of the creators. That's just amazing and something I can hope to emulate with any project I work on (whether it be tinkering in NWN or in a real life campaign).
So keep on playing, you beautiful awesome people, and thanks for some of the best NWN/RP/Story telling experiences I've ever had.
