General Discussion / Leaving/Won't Be On As Much
« on: July 13, 2005, 03:08:00 pm »
  Yeah, title says it, but it'll only be for a little while. This Friday my family's heading to the beach, we'll be back late Saturday and I'll have enough time to finish planning my quest on Sunday.
    Then starting monday the 18th I have a Highschool Police Academy that lasts until the 23rd. Meaning that from 8AM to 5PM I won't be home or have access to a computer.
    Sakura I'll still try and make your quest on Wednesday, assuming I can shovel down food and take a shower before it starts, however I'll be running no quests, and probably won't be playing much in between that time.
    I'll still try and approve characters but only in the evenings (and not at all on Friday/Saturday. Hmm.... yeah that's it.

General Discussion / Drow
« on: July 13, 2005, 08:43:00 am »
The Drow, The Dark Elves, The Acursed, Those Below, Those Who Have Turned Evil.
  [SIZE=10]Does it speak to you? No? Let us continue.[/SIZE]
  Ages past, The Drow were already known as a warlike race, attacking neighbors for power, wealth, or more insidious gains.
  [SIZE=10]Little light bulb gone off in your head? No? On we go![/SIZE]
  In the early days of the rule of Pranzis a company of horsemen were sent to settle into the wilds of the southern plains to make the land liveable by common folk. A massive drow invasion in the prior century had drawn all of the capitol's attention and left the south, despite being so close, to fall into shadow. The towns of the southern plains were quickly overrun and the people either fled further south or went missing.
  [SIZE=10]Still not convinced? Follow me...[/SIZE]
  Dark Elf Deities: Prince of Hate, Lord of Spiders, The Left Hand of Black, Mother of Darkness, Quaravalsharess.
  [SIZE=10]Hmm hmm... this is getting fun so let's move along. [/SIZE]
  Dark Elf Deity Dogmas: "Worship the Mother of Darkness or die. Destroy the weak and the faithless. Strive to better yourself even at the expense of others; in this way you will gain and keep the favor of the Mother of Darkness. Dark Elves are the supreme race, and females are better than males. Dark elves shall reign supreme in the Underdark. Annihilate the surface elves and take their land from them.
  "Vengence is an art, it is sweet and should be savored, a pleasure not to be rushed. Nothing is more satisfying than watching your plans of revence come to fruition and have the object of your retribution realize that you were behind it... but too late. The Prince of Hate will look down favorably upon you if your subterfuge remains hidden to all but your target. The weak and the faithless should be destroyed."
  [SIZE=10]Getting good eh? Just a bit more.[/SIZE]
  -105
  Dark Elves stage their first major attack on the Humans that live "topside." They held the city of Wesgate for over a decade before being defeated.
  -834
  The great city of Port Hampshire was destroyed by an army of dark elves and chromatic dragons. Nearly 5 million gold is sacked and the famous "City of Gold" begins to rebuild.
  Also I've counted at least 4 Drow attacks on Hlint including at least one occourance that I was present for, where a drow assassin took out near half a dozen PCs and probably every patron in the Wild Sturge single handedly.
  [SIZE=10]Anyone NOT feel like hating drow now please tell me.  :)[/SIZE]

Just for Fun / Coincidence? I think not.
« on: June 15, 2005, 06:17:00 pm »
  Well, I figured I'd post this since it was kinda creeping me out, so here goes...
    I'm on Sakura's quest... we're fighting water elementals and bam! Elemental uses drown attack and me with no death protection... well I make the save 13 + 7 = 20 Vs. 20 whew! Shadow Sheild then comes up... we run around and rest...
    Shadow Sheild comes up after rest and we're running round again... bam! Water elementals all around! We defeat em... Shadow Sheild blinking... shadow sheild gone... no problem I'll just re-cast... well I'm standing in water so I move to get out of it... water elemental at Eight O'Clock! Drown attack (creepy part has arrived, time for stats!)
  First Drown Attack: No Shadow Sheild make the save 20 vs 20. I live
  Second Drown Attack: Shadow Sheild farts out 10 seconds before. The save is 19 vs 20.
  Save vs the Soul Mother: 1 vs 17 Death Token Number 5
  Next we fight Primal Water Elemental... I crash before what would have been my first group defeat of a Primal... ever.
  Next and right as the quest is reaching the end and the climax... I have to leave... by the cruel joke of some twisted divine individual I make the perfect save... followed by what I consider to be a horrible string of bad luck that is topped off by nothing more or less than an angry mom... *sighs* Knew I should have done the dishes before the quest...

NWN Ideas, Suggestions, Requests / Horrid Wilting
« on: June 14, 2005, 06:22:00 am »
  I figured I'd post here since it's not really a bug or anything... Horrid Wilting does magic damage though and that doesn't seem right. I dunno, I understand what the spell horrid wilting is supposed to do but it still seems like it should do Negetive Energy damage to me (especially cause of the Fort Save that needs to be made).
    Oh, also I remember that the spell was changed somewhere along the way to 1d6/level of damage to a maximum of 20d6, is that right?

General Discussion / Step It Up...
« on: June 12, 2005, 12:07:00 pm »
  I'm really proud of Layonara, and proud to say... "Yeah, I've played there for eighteen months." However recently I've heard some not so good things about Layonara. Some I know to be flat out lies, while others I know to be somewhat true.
    While many people are generalizing and basicly saying the entire player base is full of bad RPers, and nothing but hack n' slashers, I know that not to be true. So what I'd like to ask is...
    Think before to speak. ie: Try not to ask the first person to meet to go kill things. Try not to use their names until they're given to you. React to the different races as your character would. (Drow especially) Play your class, intelligence, wisdom, and charisma. And if you have a few minutes, head to Hlint and RP with some of the new players. I know you guys have it in you... it seems all I ever see is the good stuff... I just wonder why few other people are.

General Discussion / Xantril...
« on: June 12, 2005, 11:10:00 am »
  Yes, more praise from a Layo junkie...
    I recently made it to a level where I was able to cast Greater Sanctuary, a spell I've waited a while for, and with it I've explored Xantril today. Not all of it mind you, but in the, oh... three hours I was wandering around I saw a lot of it... and may I just say, it's amazing.
    I'd been there before and seen quite a bit, but it was really the Crypts/Dungeons that blew me away. The Demon Mountains, those Plains (I can't remember what they're called) something that has to do with death. That Viper Temple, the Crypt around all the Fire Giants was amazing! And the other Crypt out on the plains nearly made me faint. Then I got to the Crypt of Walay the Fallen(?, was something like that). I have to say, I've been intimidated before, but all those crypts were a dream and nightmare come true.
    I was spotted a couple times (even though Greater Sanctuary), but it was all worth it. Some great building, great spawns, and even better custom creatures. Great work guys, hope to see even more soon.

Wild Surge Inn / Venture to the Underdark
« on: June 09, 2005, 10:34:00 am »
*written in a spidery calligraphy this notice is posted in Hlint, Hampshire, Point Harbor, Pranzis, and Lorindar*
  Explorers and adventurers,
    An expedition is being organized to explore the vast reaches of the Underdark. Gloin, a great cleric of Vorax has agreed to lead this expedition and I intend to help. We seek three things... adventure, a better understanding of the terrain, and Mithril so that Gloin may better equip the defenders of Mistone with weapons and armor. If you choose to come please leave your name here as we decide upon a time.
  Tathnolu Rilyn'val-
  Note: Clerics Requested
  \\\\ We're thinking of venturing down on a Saturday (the 18th works best for me as I won't be readily available this weekend. Also we're thinking about doing this in the early evening EST around 7:30-8:30 for a starting time. A quick OOC warning, this is a very dangerous place, if you're lower than level 12, bring a bow, also we don't want too many people as it's a cramped space and it will get cluttered so as much fun as this sounds no more than 15 people please.

General Discussion / The Underdark
« on: June 09, 2005, 05:36:00 am »
  Well... what can you say about such a place. I probably explored through a dozen or more areas on my own and I have to say every inch of the way scared me to death. Very nicely done guys, the spiders, the drow, the duergar, the ithilid, the beholders, and the Rothe. :) It was absolutly wonderful... well build and well placed spawns.

General Discussion / Thanks and Praise!
« on: June 05, 2005, 11:20:00 am »
  I've been here on Layonara for almost two years, and I am very grateful to have found such a community. We get to play here for free! Such a realistic world, with such custom content, such a wonderful story line, and such great people, for Free, they even pay to let us play here! Have you ever heard of such a thing. Paying to let other people play!
    The quest and content teams do so much for Layonara that it's not even funny, but all of us (even I) need to remember that it's a community. The people who put their valuable time into Layonara, aren't a gaggle of high school nerds that run this persistent world in their spare time. These are people with families, jobs, work to do, and social lives. They take time out of their schedules to make this place enjoyable for almost complete strangers!
    Think really really hard... these guys put in hundreds of hours every month. Not just when they feel like it. If you need help they're "on the bounce" (as one of my favorite books put it). They don't just fix the bugs they deem urgent, they fix em all, and then they add more!
  So Thank You! Everyone... the content and quest teams. I'd name you all but chances are I'd miss some so just thank you! :)

General Discussion / Death By Demoness
« on: June 05, 2005, 08:38:00 am »
  Right well I have a feeling this will be one of those "Greater Sanctuary" bugs, but I'm gonna try anyway. ;)
    Ahndar and I cast Greater Sanctuary in Arabel. We went exploring and came upon a Bloodwar Vetran Sucubus, it has True Sight, and spotted me and cast Meteor Swarm. Now, it killed me, but I made my save so no real harm done. However after I died Ahndar went in front of her and was not seen. I was wondering if I could get a mercy raise to save me the trouble of running from Dalanthar back to my grave in Arabel. If the answer's no, that's cool. Just wonderin.

Fixed Bugs / Neutral Elf Mage
« on: June 04, 2005, 07:40:00 pm »
  On top of the hill in the area called "Hurm Outskirts" (I think) the first Hurm area just outside the area called "Near the bay of Carocsa" (or whatever), there is a female mage who spawns has neutral and it killed by the archers there as they fight. Happens every time for some reason, and it doesn't seem very fair this 4 against 1 match up.

Fixed Bugs / Familiar Portraits
« on: June 04, 2005, 07:38:00 pm »
My wizard's familiar, a pseudodragon has the portrait of a fairy dragon. I have not downloaded anything that wasn't required from Layo, bu this has happened so I assume a hak bug.

Fixed Bugs / Tenser's Transformation
« on: June 02, 2005, 02:21:00 pm »
  I've only tested this on Central, but when the server automaticly saves while one is in Tenser's form, they lose the extra attack bonous that comes with the spell. The strength, dextarity, constitution, and Temporary Hit Points stay, but the attack bounous goes back to what it is for a normal wizard.

Just for Fun / Names, Where Do They Come From?
« on: May 30, 2005, 08:44:00 am »
  Title says it all. We have a lot of weird forum and character names out there, so lets here how you thought em up. (Bound to be something interesting in there)
  ZeroVega- Zero was the name of a character in the Megaman X game series. Always liked him cause he was a sword's man so I picked that. Then Vega is  one of the first stars I learned about in Astronomy and when I first heard of it I thought it was the coolest thing so... Vega.
