| Description |
Version: SoU + HotU
Description: This module starts with the most traditional of beginnings on your farm, but nothing is as it seems. The Borderlands are being overrun, and soon you are caught up in it as your farm is attacked. When you discover your father is not really your father, who can you turn to to trust?
Designed for: Non linear, starting module, for those who like a Baldur's Gate style go anywhere world. Single or single party play. No HAK required.
Not designed for: Not for those that prefer a strong central plot, linear play, or feel lost with a lot of choice. Not for those who need strong henchman characterisation.
Rules: Limited Rest (optional), Death options included, xp for kill and for skill/alignment/class/ability/deity use. You are recommended to take at least one point in several skills by level 3 (see readme)
Tasters: Plenty of custom content, illusions, crafters, rumours, language...
Comments:Feedback, especially from multiplayer, will be very well received. There will however not be a part II until NWN2.
Last Update: October 2006 - cloak update.
