Neverwinter Nights 2: The Frontier PW Announcement

The frontier was first created as a Pencil and Paper D&D campagin several years ago by myself and my brother. It was instantly a hit with all of our friends, having a world that the characters built themselves as you went from day to day. While you started out as a simple colonist with big ambitions, you could soon realize your potential, and what you were willing to work for, could easily be obtained. Players soon ran their own Inn's, Taverns, Shops, even took part in the politics, defense, and expantion of the colony.

From there things only improved, players begin exploring the world around them, cleared out dense woods to build outposts turned villiages, turned cities. Named them after their characters or great heros of their time and continued about the world uncovering secrets, riches, and power.

As much fun as this was, we wanted to bring it to more people, so when Neverwinter Nights hit the shelves, we had our chance.

I quickly built several modules and learned the toolset quickly, and with the help of several friends, got scripting down to a science and we built the Frontier. Sadly this was already some years after the first NWN was released and had a hard time attracting the ammount of players we needed to run the server at its optimum. So we just had alot of fun with this project instead, and looked to the future.

Now that NWN2 is on the verge of being released, it's time to grab this project and make it once more. The new systems, toolset, and player base will make this one of the most unique, and fun Persistant worlds out there. And sticking true to our original PnP game, players will be the driving force for the development of the mod. with a rapidly growing player base it is sure to be one of the most enjoyable roleplaying experiences you'll ever have!

Here are some of the main features:

Players will be able to own their own buildings that they collect the matierials for. And a sum of gold for construction.

Players will own businesses such as Inns, Blacksmith shops, Market places, hunters guilds, banks, etc. which will result in weekly income.

PLayers will make up the "Key" Characters int he world, such as Guard Captains, Mayors, even a King as the world expands.

Collaberative efforts between players can result in the expansion of the current colony as well as new outposts which will turn into cities over time.

Player to monster relations and factons depending on actions.

The ability to play a Minotaur sub-race. (minotaurs are a prominate race in the new world, some friendly, and some not)

Heavy DM interaction with many quests and side-adventures

A rich roleplaying Environment

And so much more.
