So that time has come once again to pick up the pieces of this beautiful game and throw myself to the wolves in an attempt to craft a world we can all enjoy. I want to make that the #1 goal this time around: Make a server that is fun. Unfortuneately, I can't do this alone. So what do I need from you? Not much. A desire to play and enjoy yourself on the server is most important. Other than that, throw in some suggestions! If you're interested in being a DM, let me know! What's Scarn?Scarn is a Neverwinter Nights 1 server/module/Persistent World, loosely based on the Sword and Sorcery setting at: www.scarn.comIts a roleplay oriented server, with a ton of custom content. What do I need to play?Here are the files required to connect and play on Scarn: Neverwinter Nights:EE!You can find this here: www.beamdog.com/products/neverwinter-nights-enhanced-editionPreordering any edition will get you into the headstart, which will let you see the server in the browser list. You also need this to play: tinyurl.com/y8bosjqjThe hak files go in your NWN/hak folder. The tlk file goes in your NWN/tlk folder. If you don't already have one of these folders, just create it in your base nwn directory. Server IP: TBA Server Name: Scarn |

Sounds good to me. I bet you don't still have that map a drew up from the PnP days, eh? Would have made this all a tad smoother.
Anyways... Suggestions. Goblin Worg/Spider Riders (on Striders with Lighters, etc), Vampires, Werewolves, Minotaurs, blah blah blah. Same ol' shit, just better. I'd also like to see samurai and ninja shit done right for a change, if possible. Guilds/clans for characters to join with RP value (not just for bragging right or some clan-specific robe). Merchant guild. Theif guild. You know, the good stuff. With actual induction rituals RPed out instead of some lame "go find this and you're in" entrance task/quest. I'll tell you what I'd REALLY love to see too, is more done with that Shapeshifter class. That class has the highest RP potential of any other, but no one ever plays them. I'd like to see shapeshifters able to change into ALOT more creatures, whether they get special abilities from them or not. Just stick a wand on em. I RPed a shapeshifter who had no natural form on another server once. Was the most fun I ever had. He couldn't speak anything but animal languages (grunts, growls, fowl odors, it was hella fun to RP) and I had inadvertantly captured the awe of half the server.
Anyway... I'll let you know if I think of anything else.

Hey, Folks!
I'm new to this forum and online gaming but have played NWN for about a year and a half or 2. Looking forward to playing and interacting with some of you. I have a few questions that I hope you will answer (and please forgive my newbishness if they sound stupid).
My 1st question is, will we have to create characters that are brand new in Scarn or will we bring our existing characters over?
Will we need a password to get into the server?
Will PvP be available from 1st level on or will lower levels be protected?
If spells require components to balance the use of magic in gameplay, then will magic users have hit points to equal those of other classes and be allowed to wear armor?
Also, will exp requirements for magic users be lower since it takes so much more exp for magic users to advance?
Thanx for indulging these questions. I don't get to play a lot but I look forward to the first chance I'll have!

My 1st question is, will we have to create characters that are brand new in Scarn or will we bring our existing characters over? You'll be creating new characters, and starting from level 1. Nope, the server will be open for anyone to connect. For the most part, the server will be full pvp all the time, but we'll have town defenses in place for lower level players. No, the restrictions are in place because the server is low magic. So spells will be harder to cast, but mages will be more valuable. Everyone levels using the same XP scale (except for subraces with an ECL) Hope that answered your questions! Hope to see you there! |

Ran into a snag hosting the server from my home connection. Since I'll be relocating soon and often (I'm active duty), I'm going to just shell out the $ and rent a server host. This is going to take a bit longer though, so I'll have the server up as soon as possible. I"ll keep you guys posted here. Thanks!

Haven't given up on this. I've been working on making the server compatible with the 1.69 patch, and the CEP v2.1.
