Hythum is a world comprised of islands and small to moderate sized land masses that float in the sky with no land below. Heat grows more intense towards the relative core of Hythum and cooler as one ascends. Kingdoms, free cities, and tribes comprised of every race and alignment imaginable populate the countless islands of Hythum. As the story opens, you (and your companions) are in the employee of Eyvinder the Sage, a diviner. It is several days before the alignement of the three moons of Hythum, a time when the magical energies of divination are greatly enhanced making powerful, detailed and far reaching visions possible. Eyvinder is busy, as are you, and celebrations are taking place in many lands in anticipation of this important occasion. Visit http://enoa.rpgs.sytes.net/hythum.htm for more information.
Hi Randalish, Thanks for the post. I am glad you are enjoying the module. I recently replayed it and was surprised at a number of times. I really liked the module when I first released it, but it seems dated to me know, although still enjoyable. I think I could have allowed resting in the swamp, I had that thought myself. The gold... I have actually cleaned up the balance there considerably. There used to be more and it was harder to find items for monks and other classes. I think the sequel to this module is my favorite, although there is a pretty big henchmen bug in it. Thanks for playing it and thanks for posting.

Enjoying this module so far. It's quite amazing how much more natural the NWN tilesets look in this world... kudos for cleverly turning the game's weakness into a strength. Not finished yet, so no rating, but I'll just note that I would have appreciated a place to rest in the swamp. Why can't I ask the captain to watch over me and rest? As it is, my wizard was forced to beat up a black dragon in close combat. And much to my surprise, he succeeded. Admittedly he's not your average wizard as he can use swords and has high strength, but still, a level 5 wizard with AC 17 should not be able to beat a dragon in hand-to-hand combat. It probably had something to do with the fact there's so much gold in the module he had gloves of AC +4 and haste... at level 5. Hmm. I'd prefer a bit less loot and one or two more places to rest. I imagine the module would be rather easy with a class that doesn't need resting if you get items like that.

Thanks, Enoa4, It's wonderful to see such a responsive author. I like the look of your blog; it goes in my favorites, and I'll check out Hythum II soon. Send your offspring to art school. =) _________________________ Regards, DS _____________________ Don't worry about avoiding temptation. As you grow older, it will avoid you. -- Winston Churchill

Enoa4, I actually downloaded your mod quite some time ago (v3.9, I think), and just recently got around to playing. I have to say that I found this module to be very enjoyable. While fairly linear, the storyline was very dynamic and seemed to generate its own momentum. It also seemed to be very well written and conceived overall. The areas were not too large and were well designed. Henchmen were scripted better than average and sometimes (after an apparent trigger) had their own things to say. I started with a 6th level Sorcerer (one level higher than recommended) and finished at level 11. The scripting seemed well-polished as I encountered no bugs at all. Thank you for posting Hythum and sharing it with the community! _________________________ Regards, DS _____________________ Don't worry about avoiding temptation.

Hey I have had the problem with missing the required custom talk table with two of your modules I've tried, but I have the most recent CEP. Any suggestions?

Faderaven, I think I understand where you are. You are either in a room in the SW or SE corner of a dungeon/lava map. If so you've got a couple of options. If you are a theif you can figure out what to do with the buttons and disarm the trap. If you are a spell caster, cast dispel magic. I think you need to cast it on the pillar in the pit, not the column with the buttons, but it's been a while, and I can't remember. Final option, shoot at or otherwise destroy the pillar in the near by pit. This will open a door/gate in the opposite corner of the level. If you need more help or if I have answered the wrong question please let me know, I'd be happy to help. take care ENoa4 _________________________ ENoa4 http://enoa4rpg.blogspot.com

I also have just gone thru the Great Portal. I have found two columns with buttons on them but cannot figure out what to do with them. I can't seem to find anything else to do.
