Getting reacquainted

[Renter]

Greetings all - I'm so pleased that Layonara, unlike a lot of other NWN RP servers, will not delete characters from the vault no matter how long they have been idle.

I'm trying to get back into Layonara with Abraham Salt, the character I created when first playing on Layonara 3 years ago, and to catch up and get the lay of the land once more.

I think the maps have changed a little bit, and there has clearly been a lot of history. It isn't obvious from the forums how to get current on events in-game without a lot of skimming. Any threads I should be especially mindful of, or forums that announce major events, especially regarding Aragen's worship?

Well [lore]The Layonara Timeline[/lore] would be a good place to start...
Some of the place names have changes, so if you reacquainted yourself with the maps, that might also be a good idea.

I understand that aging has been discussed else and nothing decisive was agreed upon, but you might wanna have an excuse why your character has been gone and returns now, hardly aged, after 49 years and 9 days (layonara time). I imagine that some of the people that he used to known must've aged quite a bit and the world is very different from back then (with the major events and all that). Just a heads up, as I imagine it could lead to some weird situations if you don't readily have an excuse

Also, welcome back. Glad to see more people joining.

Dont bring up aging the human PCs dont like it

[Mr. Erth]

Sorry, I'll keep that in mind. Just thought I'd mention it :p

[Renter]

I'm actually glad you mentioned this, because I was wondering if the PC in question ought to be played as though he were... 35 years older? This would place him in his 80s.

His hair be grey and he be a codger anyway, so old beyond old is not beyond imagining.

I am thinking about new backstory that would fill in all this missing time. Thanks for the bump!

Hello all!

I have registered on the website and am eager to submit my character for approval through the Wizard, but it keeps telling me "No thread specified" or something similar. I am using a MacBook Pro running 10.5.2 and have tried both Safari and Firefox. What might I be doing wrong?

Thanks!

[GrathnarGKrall]

Now I am really embarrassed. The Wizard worked just fine on the third try. Sorry all! Although I do not think I did anything different.
