Important Layonara Announcements / Server unkown to us
« on: March 25, 2020, 11:05:19 am »
Hi guys,
 
I re-installed NWN:EE on Steam and Layonara is greyed out. I tried the solutions here but no good.

This message appeared:
Direct Connect and UDP hole punch failed.
Requesting Relay token.
Relay Access denied.
Relay said Server is unknown to us.
Connection to server failed.

Is this a compatibility issue?

Introduce Yourself / Hello old and new friends!!!
« on: June 10, 2019, 10:39:15 am »
After quite a few years and with the Gamespy snafu behind us, Kyle Pandorn is back. I'm almost a year in retirement and it is good to be back on Layonara. Kyle is semi-retired, but is still willing to put the armor on and get into trouble.  :)

Ancients Legacy / A letter to Baroness Athalia Imjam
« on: July 12, 2015, 12:22:09 pm »
*After sending his short message to Kurn..he writes another letter to be sent to Erylin and Baroness Imjam*Your Grace,I travel to the Ulgrids to fufill my promise and I write this message of knowledge and warning.The whole ordeal of the stars re-aligning...the latest being Grannoch's Giant's Supremacy...the disappearances of people of the five main races...and the disease called "Fastrot" was part of a scheme by none other than our old friend...Milara...to achieve godhood. This would have been...disasterous for lack of a better term. There is an ancient tale that is long and would be best told in person should you wish.Be assured it did not occur...as myself and other adventurers found ourselves at the Mountain of Madness...which we encountered prisoners on which he was performing some experiments on using a device that was fitted to extract divine engergies from them if they were inclined to have such.  We freed and tended to the prisoners with the help of some troops from Bloody Gate and re-inforcements as best we could.Upon finding the device...we encountered many undead and Milara himself. He was...in my opinion...preparing either to conduct another experiment...or actually attempt to become a god. Either way we fought him...disrupting whatever it was he was attempting and sent him to retreat...which is what he does when he is directly challenged. You will be glad to learn that he lost his Triumph and his vaunted Pet so he is now weaker than he has ever been. The device is secure and is now being prepared for transport to it's rightful place. Again...part of that ancient tale.This will not be the last of Milara for sure. Since he was responsible for your family's past predicament...you should watch the area near the Mountain as Milara might re-ignite conflict in the area once he is able to.I will give the Ulgrids your regards when I arrive there.Always in your service,Kyle Pandorn

Development Journals and Discussion / Stiven Roland - Fugitive
« on: June 28, 2014, 10:43:32 am »
Ok...it is done.I took advantage of the situation and escaped custody. At least the guards were just knocked out. So I helped myself to a uniform and escaped.It is the only way to try and prove I didn't kill the woman I was found with. My mind is still a blank. All I can remember is dancing with her...Caroline I think her name was...going to the room...having some wine...then darkness. Then being led away to prison by the guards. I have no way to prove I didn't do it. Stroke of luck the horses got spooked and the transport overturned.Now...It won't take long for them to find out I've escaped. I must keep a low profile as I hunt for answers.My life depends on it...

World Leader Development Quests (WLDQ's) / Kyle Pandorn
« on: February 13, 2008, 05:44:33 pm »
Application for WLDQ

Character: Kyle Pandorn
Classes: 12 Fighter / 8 Weapon Master

Updated bio (with references to journal posts):

I've had a good life so far. Well...certainly didn't turn out as I thought it would. I've had many an adventure since the dragon called me to Mistone...I'd better get it down so my grandchildren can know about what that "crazy old grandpa" did.

Let's see...there was that time I helped preserve a ceremony which created the Blade of Shadows. Believed to be the blade that struck down Sinthar Bloodstone...I literally gave my all so that the ceremony that transferred a soul to a gem was not interrupted. I fought demons and was even sent to the Void for a while till I was brought back by Quantum Windward. Ayla Bineau said it was a success and my effort had not been in vain. (Kyle Pandorn: Stranger in a Strange Land posts 48,57,59)

Then...the event that sticks in my mind. The Battle for Stone...as I call it.(KP: posts 33,65) Here...I was among a small group bent on freeing the town of Stone from the occupation force of Bloodstone's troops. Although Stone wasn't 'freed' as we know 'freed'...the town was totally razed by the demons guarding it...but there are a few gnome families that are around today because we went and delivered a blow to the enemy there. And...in my opinion...it was the beginning of the end for Bloodstone.

And then there were the Riders. 5 women bound to horses that kept certain emotions in check while they were near. This halfling named Anxiety wanted to unseat Koralawyn. She was the Guardian of Pandemonium...and had gotten there under dubious circumstances. And from what I gathered...she did not want just Pandemonium...but Celestia as well. We had to get Koralawyn to bind to a horse call Insanity to defeat her. The way to do that was to find an amulet that we could couple Insanity to her. I had located the amulet in a run down temple in Arnax. Ozymandias infused the amulet with Insanity's energy and we set out for Pandemonium. We battled elementals and demons and finally came to where Koralawyn was. Ozymandias tricked Koralawyn into putting the amulet on herself. This saved not only Pandemonium...but the ladies were freed of their bonds with the horses. I actually missed the horses when they left. The halfing Anxiety was in reality the rightful Guardian of Pandemonium...Elezandor. He was restored when Koralawyn bound to Insanity...and the horses unbound from the Riders.(KP: posts 69,70,71,75,79,80,81)

And I had a hand in restoring water to the arid region of Audira and restoring balance between Shindelaria and Mist.(KP: post 124,140.144,148 ) It was part of a expedition with the Mistone Archelogical Foundation which saw us finding the lost city of Estibana. And releasing a long dammed river by piecing together a musical puzzle. My friend Jharl had sung his heart out to get these globes to open the dam and get the water flowing again. Now Audira is an oasis because of it. I was proud to have been a part of that.

And the High Priest of the Rofirein Church Barvanth is at his post today because I was among a group who rescued him from the clutches of insurgents against Prantz and Rael. Now...I'm not a fan of Rael...but kidnapping the head of the Church of Rofirein definitly wasn't the way to go about it. It would have brought every Rofireinite against any resistance...even if deep down they do not approve of Rael or his rule. Rael will get his...eventually.

And the Kingdom of Erylin is restored. (KP: posts 189,199,200,201,202,203,204,205) Not exactly the way we wanted...we had created a rift in the planes while investigating the reason for King Briant's disappearance. He disappeared to a curse placed by Milara which caused the entire nobility of Erylin to become immortal. Honora...a very dear friend...was determined to see that we correct that mistake and restore the King to his rightful place. We first had to restore a portal mirror that was put itnto a pool of water that was also a portal. We had to fix the mirror in the rift...and then remove the intact mirror from the pool. This sealed the rift and gave us access to where King Briant was being imprisoned. To break his curse...we had determined that certain family heirlooms held the key to breaking the curse. The heirlooms were the most simplest of craft...and put in the right order by spelling out 'Estibana' using a poem we had...freed King Briant from prison...broke the curse...and gave Erylin her King back. Honora is also a decendant of one of the King's Knight's Councillor and now holds that position today.

And Katrien Hommel has gained the ability to be very persuasive in her music and speech. Her father had this ability to create beautiful pieces of music...but was unable to sing or play the music and therefore unable to express himself through it. Kat made the music her own and was able to persuade Cassandra...A Tide of Mist...to leave us be.

I hope that my grandchildren can look upon this and be pround of Grandpa Kyle.

The following is a possible starting point for a WLDQ should I be approved. I hope it will give the GM who will run it wide latitude to come up with a worthy quest for Kyle. Not to mention a total surprise to me.[/b]

Approximately 45 years ago...[/b][/u]

Krindo Pandorn was tired. He and his wife Darcee been travelling for days. A tip that their persuers were close forced them to leave Arnax in a hurry. They were going to try North Hampshire on Vanavar. That would take another three days. Time to make camp and rest. As they were setting up the tent and starting a fire...their son stirs and starts to cry. Darcee picks him up and gently rocks the baby.

"Hope we got away unseen...Krindo...are you sure we did the right thing? I mean...I'm proud of you for defying orders and not killing him. The very thought of it angers me...but you could have put Kyle in an orphanage..." Krindo just shook his head.

"No...he would have been found and killed. And the orphanage as well for harboring him. We are in danger for doing this. Defying orders doesn't sit well with that...that..." He composes himself befor continuing. "But...I am at peace with my decision. How Kyle could be a threat escapes all reasoning...." His voice trails off. It was a few moments before he spoke again. "Let's rest. We are off before dawn." Krindo douses the fire and they settle in for the night...but he couldn't sleep. He goes into a pocket and pulls out a pendant. He runs his finger over the engraving of the word 'Rowan' on its face. "Let's just hope Kyle never finds out..." he whispers to himself as he settles in to sleep.


There you have it. It is what I came up with after many thought on how I could possibly make Kyle a World Leader. It is actually what I wanted to do with a former PC (since deleted for bad RP). Kyle is a fairly successful businessman in a guild...but he has the heart of a warrior. And a possible threat to someone.

That title should wait until the end of a hopefully successful World Leader quest.

Development Journals and Discussion / Cole Pandorn - Beginnings
« on: May 14, 2007, 06:30:57 pm »
*Cole opens the new journal his father Kyle had given him. Not quite
sure...he begins to write*
[/b]

I love my Mom and Dad and my sister Aylana. While I am glad to have a home....I feel more at ease in the forest...the animals there are more friends than beasts. I try to take the hurt ones home...but Mom and Dad and Aunt Jenna just frowns and say no...I shouldn't be around these dangerous critters.

Bah...they just have to get to know them like I seem to. Like Mr. Rain and Mr. Dalan and this girl Abigail. The four of us would go into the woods...and Mr. Rain would show us how to 'talk' to the animals and shoot the bow while Mr. Dalan would show us how to track things. And at home...Dad tries to teach me how to use a sword...but it drives Mom crazy.

But...if I thought I was nervous around Mr Rain and Dalan...I'm really nervous around Abigail. I mean she is cute and all...but her dad is a very...BIG...man. A warrior like my father...but more powerful. And my dad is no weakling. I wouldn't want to make Abi's dad mad at me. But Abi is nice to have around and we have fun when we aren't training.

Here they come for another trip in the woods. And Abi is smiling at me again. More like chuckling...since I almost put an arrow into Arwin's...that is Mr. Rain's wolf friend...backside during bow training. Mr. Rain said to focus and not be so distracted...but Abi is always in my line of sight for some reason...

I seem to be missing my ox pack. I didn't leve it anywhere and I can load/unload the pack...but when unloaded...the pack is no where to be seen. I loaded the pack and logged off then on and still missing.

Two questions:

What happened to my ox pack and can it be recovered? and

Can I get the 3 iron Full Plates back?
