Heavily dependant on the player. So if you start with a new character, the game will take longer, of course. Most of the quests don't need to be completed for the storyline. Another point is that you may follow different campaigns.

Description
>>ABANDONED:Due to various problems (beside others including a massive server crash, a lost team member, and the loss of my motivation) there is no further work done on this module at the moment. It *might* be done some work on it some day, but I really doubt this.
Condasil - The Island
*UNDER DEVELOPMENT VERSION*
This version is playable but far from complete.
IMPORTANT NOTE:
This module requires the new bioware official haks released as part of the 1.67 update. You can get them here (the bonus tilesets).
The Condasil island chain... A miasma of despair and broken dreams lingers in the air. War and betrayal has left no island untouched. Even now a conflict of immense proportion goes on in the dark places of the islands. An artifact of incredible power has been rediscovered and the scales of destiny have been tipped. An unlikely individual has taken center stage in this power struggle.
You...
The choices are both simple and awe-inspiring. Which path will you, a student of the Academy of the Isles, choose. Will you join the aloof, patrician yet sinister ranks of the vampires, or unleash the fury within as a werewolf. The mortals too need champions... Will you ignore the needs of the people or stand as a light for the islands of Condasil?
This module is in the early stages of development. We believe in the Open Development approach and thus we continue to update our module as new quests are made and bugs are stamped out. The project is of an epic nature so please keep checking on our progress. We are quite dedicated to our module and intend that it succeed. That being said we are always on the lookout for assistance.
Visit the Condasil HP!
v0.29a
This has some general fixes and additions. The two main features of this update are the resting tutorial added to the "Welcome to our module" area and the intro movie (seperate&optional download).
So...
well I finished civil service, but it's not mandatory for university/college, I just had to do it because people here think one should do something for society at least once in his life...or whatever.
However I'm done with that, and will probably start my studies at the local university this autmn...
As far as the module is concerned...
The server crash last year caused great data loss. I had backups of the site itself, but not of the postings in the forum. Unfortunately, we planned the module via the forum, and with the crash everything not allready implemented into the module was lost.
As I allready had quite some problems concerning time management as far as the module is concerned-module building takes a LOT of time-I experienced a sudden drop in motivation.
As I probaly won't have more free time when I start studying in a few months, I doubt I will continue this project. I'd like to see it finished, but as ShrikeKnight posted earlier, this project is (or was) very ambitous...this plus the massive data loss is reason enough to let it be good, I think.
I apologize for taking so long to answer your question.
The team leader, RM had to do civil service for a year(mandatory for those who wish to attend college in his country) and thus had little time to work on this. Our other partner, wwdragon had lost interest, and thus it was left to me. Unfortunately this was too ambitious a project for just one designer and thus I can proceed no further. I try and help people who come here with question abt what has been finished but I am not developing any new material for the mod at this time. Thank you for downloading Condasil and for voting. I really appreciate that. I do hope you will try what has been done as a lot of hard work was done on this module. _________________________ Where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is Liberty.

Oh and you would be wise to ignore the pre-area and just jump to the module. That was just intended to show off some of the special features of the module... _________________________ Where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is Liberty.
I apologise for not getting back to you sooner. RM's forum has been down for a while and thus the small walkthrough is down as well.
To answer some of your questions...
You can catch the boat as soon as you have gotten the advanced primer. The advanced primer must be gotten from the basement of the library from the flying books.(Talk to the headmaster, then Wonder the librarian, descend to basement, get primer, return to headmaster and then head to ship if you wish.)
The garden --- Dame Fallaria wants you to kill the two myconids. On one of the bodies is a green gem. This is proof that you did the deed so to speak.
To become a vampire, reach Condasil, speak with the town council and then head to the crypt. At the bottom is a young lady that will grant your request so to speak.
Alignment shifts are quite present and if you finish all the quests in the Academy you will run into at least one before you even make it to Condasil proper.
To become a Werewolf, you must reach Condasil, get to the area called Werewolf camp decend and meet with the head werewolf therein.
The NPC henchmen all start at least 15th. This is because we were still working on a manner to grow them so to speak. 15th was abt the lowest level they could be and still survive some of the dangers further into the module.
I still keep an eye on this mod though it seems in a bit of disarray at the moment so feel free to ask other questions. _________________________ Where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is Liberty.
Not sure if I will explore this one a bit more at this stage. The pre-module area is a bit odd already (why such a large area with some monsters at the back?).
Next you walk up in your room to find your student garment (that one is better than all the equiment I lost). Next you can recruit a friend (gee she's 15th level!). You can walk around (not much to do really) unless you know how to catch a boat and/or how exactly you may join the vampires/werewolves (sorry the external sites where you may find the readme are dead ATM). I tried this module because somebody mentioned that alignment shifts have been included here. Too bad I did not see anything related so far. The garden quest cannot be completed (what else need to be done to make her happy?). Once you get your book(s) what/where to go? Thee whole thing feel a bit like a PW. Sorry I am no fan of PWs. Sorry.

Ireally wanted to like this but there was entirely too much backtracking to hold my interest. I must have gone to the mage in the cave 5 or 6 times.
I just downloaded the latest version, along with the hak. I've updated to version 1.67 and have the cep1.53 hak installed. However, when I try to load the module, I get the error that I'm missing some haks. These haks are:
This is directly from the nwclientlog file. Where do we get these haks or since you've recently updated the haks can I edit the module and remove these haks before playing?

I had no problem accessing the forum...I logged out and back in, then posted and deleted some test message, worked fine. Maybe a temporary server error, try again.

I logged in today to rmvirtual forum and went to reply to the first message and poof: Connection refused. :-O
oh, by the way, If anyone reading this is interested in contributing to the module, we need some help building it. if you want to help, please visit the forum following the link in the module description above...

got some server problems...but everything's back to normal for some time now...
I did a bit of looking around and found us primitive firearms. There is a hak called Issig Flintlocks that fits the bill. It doesn't replace other ranged weapons but is its own stand alone entity. Looks good actually. Right now it works under HOTU but the guy says that there is a beta in his PW that is both HOTU and CEP compliant. It is supposed to be a few months but then he'll upload the CEP compliant to the site. I'll give him a polite prod. :)
The flintlock would be researched at considerable cost at the Naquerrian Outpost. I am thinking that perhaps it might be Male PC Teresa Romance only but we'll see. _________________________ Where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is Liberty.
won't be much work...i allready mada a forum some time ago, but had no use for it...my friends allready had 2 forums, no need for a third one, and there never were enough people on my site...it was always quite empty, so i deleted it to save some webspace...but i still got a backup version on my pc. I'll set it up again, it should only take me a few minuites...
The turning ability would be equivalent to an 8th level Cleric.
Ability #2 Field of the Fallen --- The PC Valkyrie would be able to create a blade barrier 1/day
Ability #3: Call of Heroes --- PC would be able to summon an Einherjar, a hero that sits in Valhalla. This hero would fight for the Valkyrie for a set amount of time then depart.
Ability #4: Valkyrie Ascension --- The Valkyrie would go ethereal for a time.
Ability #5: Recall the Fallen --- Resurrection 1/day
Ability #6: Heal the Brave --- The Valkyrie would be able to cast Cure Critical Wounds 3/day
Valkyrie Assault(Final Ability) Valkyrie unleashes a Sunburst upon her foes.
Each of these abilities would have to be earned on different islands. Basically each would be an item given power.(Since we really don't want to deal with the hassle of creating a new prestige class.) The male PC will be given special abilities based on romance he is following. With Teresa it will be more technological abilities(Naquerrian heritage) and Hali's romance will allow Secrets of the Swan which I am still pondering... Basically my reasoning is since this is a hero of destiny he/she might get some extra tricks so to speak... _________________________ Where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is Liberty.
Shalinar:(smiles) Her love for you allowed her to transcend. She called you back with her new gifts.
PC(blushes): Ahem... Perhaps that part should be between Fynolt and I.
Shalinar:(smiles) As you wish, Sister. As you travel you will find opportunities to expand on your new abilities. For now be content with your new equipment and our blessings. Farewell.
Valkyries #2 and #3: Farewell Sister.
The three valkyries vanish. Fynolt and the PC stand in the final area alone. There is a portal where the dracolich once stood.
Fynolt: So you do love me.
PC:(shy) I guess I must. All I know is that I am lost without you. You complete me.
Fynolt: (Insert PC name), Lady Valkyrie, I am honored. I love you as well with all my heart. I will continue to stand by you come what may and then even beyond.
PC: Let me try something...(PC makes casting motion and two rings appear.) To symbolize our bond, I have made these rings.
Fynolt: I will wear mine with honor, beloved.(dialogue ends, major experience awarded)
(Engagement Rings---
Valkyrie's Rings of Engagement: Woven from the air itself, this ring symbolizes your dedication and love to Fynolt and his for you.
Both Rings have:
Improved Evasion, Armor Class Bonus +8, Resist Slash/10 Bludgeon /10, Piercing /10)
The two take the portal and arrive at the spectral knight.
SK: Congratulations Champion!
(At this point, Fynolt gains the levels to become 17th Level Paladin/9th level Champion of Torm. He would still have any gear the PC had given him but Trueheart would be back and enhanced.)
Fynolt: I feel different, stronger.
SK: The test does that. You may take your gear from the chest. I have returned True Heart to you already. Thank you Lady Valkyrie for your part. After milennia of seeing such tests, that was interesting... You may leave the same way you came in. Blessings be upon you both.(Experience granted)
Sir Neville is overjoyed.
SN: Congratulations Fynolt. I should say Brother Fynolt. Welcome to our ranks. Thank you for your part counselor. You both have done well.(end dialogue)
---
The quests of the Valkyrie
On each island there is a possibility that the PC may see Shalinar. This is an indicator that the PC can expand their abilities by going on a mission for Shalinar.
Such ability increases
Limited turning(Tame the unquiet dead) --- An item(like your raise clay golem, skeletal mage) will allow the PC Valkyrie to turn undead.
Have to go... Continue this later. _________________________ Where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is Liberty.
Shalinar(heh, I checked, that's her name alright) We must equip our sister appropriately.
Valkyrie #2: Indeed. I give her the Valkyrie's horn. With this she may call forth the valiant to aid her in her cause.
Valkyrie's Horn:(Miscellaneous Medium #1, iit_midmisc_180)
Casts 1/day: Aura of Glory, Aura of Vitality, Battletide, Bless Weapon(17), Greater Planar Binding, Mordenkainen's Sword. Undeath's Eternal Foe, Word of Faith
Limited Good, Female
--- Allows the Valkyrie to call forth heroes to defend her. She may then further aid them with other enchantments on the horn.
Valkyrie #3: I will give her the Helm of the Valkyrie to shield her thoughts.
What you might do is when it is further along open a new site called Condasil alpha version. This would be where the module in its far further along state would reside. Then we would continue our work here... _________________________ Where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is Liberty.
i just got the idea that i should place a warning in the mod desription not to read the comments...after reading all this the mod should be quite boring...;) maybe i should set up a forum instead...developing and comments sections...do you think it would be worth the effort?
ps.: i started working on the ghost ship today
