The shell for a vampire/werewolf/ghoul/zombie/wraith PW type world...
Description
Anne Rice vampires, nature guardian werewolves, ghoul lackies, mindless zombies, and the restless wraiths. I liked the Fallen vampire system, but wanted something more along the lines of the White Wolf World of Darkness. A world where powerful PCs can Masquerade as humans even to each other.
In this PW shell, everyone starts human or humanoid (I'd recommend humans only, actually). Vampires and werewolves are mostly created by other PCs, and gain powers as they go up in levels. PC vampires can create ghouls out of other PCs or NPCs to serve them. All vampire powers are fueled by a Blood Pool, which they can only fill by feeding off others. PC werewolves have 4 different beast forms, and can smell different types of creatures nearby, even invisible ones. Unlike the other horrors, a werewolf can Step Sideways into the Spirit World to seek refuge and gather power. Meanwhile, the civilians of the city are all infected with The Sickness. If they die, they rise as zombies. If you fight a zombie, they could infect your open wounds as well. If you don't find the cure soon...
And finally, if you die the True Death, you are sent to the Shadowlands to wander as a Wraith. At night, you might be able to cross back over to the land of the living, completely unseen. You could harvest their dreams for power, create poltergeist effects, spy on them, or perhaps summon enough strength to actually manifest before them.
This Prefab contains a few mandatory areas (underground, The ShadowLands, and the SpiritWorld) and two others to demonstrate what all this prefab can do. Spells work differently on PCs who are undead (vampires, zombies or wraiths). Some zombies can appear human only in daylight, but reveal their true nature at dusk (like Pirates of the Carribean). Some Wraiths can manifest forms close enough to real that they actually appear alive, but only throughout the night. Ghouls are humans who can drink blood for power and serve vampires, and all vampires and werewolves look normal too, until they want to appear otherwise... I created this to beta test the scripts for a PW I hope to create in NWN2. It is a shell to create a world designed for role-playing hidden secrets and fighting the beast within...
Also, I accidentally uploaded the 'backupmod' the first go round. Now it is just the mod itself...
Fixed first bug that kept "haunts" from working (Thanks chaos_theocrat!)
Updated -- Fixed the 2nd bug on "meld" and "step sideways" (again, thank you Chaos), and, just for you Rapid, I've added a second version. This new version I THINK is now persistent. It is my first go at making a persistent world system, so rather than replacing the first one, I made a second version. That way we can trouble shoot the second without damaging the original. Both versions have the Chaos bugs fixed.
Updated 12Sep06 -- Now the zip file ONLY contains the persistent version, which has the meld, step sideways, and haunt issues fixed...
Incidentally, this mod's persistence is built around Knat's Natural Bioware Database Extension 1.0
Updated 22Sep06 -- NOW 13% more Persistenty! Added a "limbo" room that will send you back to your last location if someone resets the module, and also will only allow humans to play (but can be adjusted to allow other races). Up to 5 henchman will reform with you if the module resets as well. If you were a staked vampire before, now you'll stay staked when the module resets. Also, if you are a Wraith in the real world, it will make you ghost-like again after a server reset. If you were a zombie, you'll be one again after a server reset. If you are a vampire melded into the ground, or a vampire in wolf form, you'll be after a server reset. Also, fixed the bug Maerik discovered about fangs getting blood from the floor.
@Absol13: Yeah my guess is that you have the latest version of the Cep which isn't compatible with the older version (1.62 and older), so also try to downloading an older version should fix your problem. I also have two version of cep installed 1 for older and one for newer modules.
I'll check this out and come back with a vote. I have been looking for WW mods for nwn to work off for some time now, hopefully this one will do the trick. _________________________ NWN1 Head and body pack NWN2 Headpack.
7 times they came and 7 times they died who can say what the 8th will bring.

by the way, this is like the 5th whitewolf thing made by someone and submitted to the vault. I'm not sure if this one is the best, cause truthfully, none of these whitewolf hakpaks or modules I've come upon while surfing here has interested me. _________________________ @===============================================@
Vinchenzo made a post here.
Plz check out my entries. I'm currently making a few simple modules, designing 3 special characters, and hope to someday be good this stuff.
This is Vinchenzo, finishing his post with the following advice:
Don't use Latin improperly (Lupis means grey, Rufus is red, Canid is dog, so on.) Furries annoy me with their improper usage of such. And I'm a furry!!! Ugh...
Don't vote for Beta things unless told they are finished, unless posted specifically by the author.
Don't abuse the vote and post function, don't vote for your own/friends stuff just to get a high vote. Don't flame vote either just to be an ass.
There is a voting system for how the points are used, even I forget, but we should follow it (and tattoo it to our forehead, lol)

How the hell did a comment on a hakpak for a whitewolf server I made get onto this submission? sure, this submission is talking about a similar topic, but this submission I did not EVER put that comment on here.
I still checked out this demo, it seemed OK. truthfully I found the use of a mistletoe ritual to become a werewolf one of the most moronic things I've ever heard, as well as a few other features of this demo, but thats all my opinion and I'm sure other people disagree.
oh, and if the maker of this demo can tell me who moved my comment from another submission (a hakpak submission) over here onto this module submission, I think I might actually want to give this a vote. _________________________ @===============================================@

Yes, the Garou being born not created was a puzzle, but since Garou don't usually KNOW they are Garou until they get older, I created the ritual as a way of "discovering" people with latent Garou genes. Couldn't figure out any other way for someone to have built a character and not know what they were... Good feedback though...
Hmm... nice. An update from the origional WhiteWolf - Dark Ages RPG server. Superior scripting and functions, AND a better way to explain why undead and the like exist.
Like to point out that in WhiteWolf Garou (werewolves) are born, not created. Tho there are rituals and rites that can be performed. ;) Simple fix.
This looks neat, I'm gonna check it out. _________________________ @===============================================@

I wanna play whitewolf, I got all the hakpacks and such, all of them the versions needed, but my connection must not be fast enough or there is a secret thing preventing me from connecting to the server.
At least with this I can test 'what would that server be like' by myself.
Oh, does some-one know how to get faster than a cable hook-up without getting those certain exclusive Comcast customer bullshit stuff where you pay an extra $70 a week? Comcast is so damn expensive with a bunch of crappy extra fees... glad I'm not comcast anymore. Good ole' DSL with Broadband at a inexpensive $15 a month with no extra costs ever is far better. _________________________ @===============================================@
