When your character dies you will be sent to another area (fugue plane, or simlar.) Respawning from that area will send you back to either your home town or your house (if you own one.)
Setting
Alvaeus is a custom world created for the purpose of this module! The main advantage to this in addition to a completely unique experience, is that the players will actually be able to have a dramatic effect on the history and future of the world!
There is a main storyline behind Alvaeus, but in the hopes of not spoiling too much I will simply say this:
In a world full of turmoil and confusion the adventurer is king. The cities of Amaranth, the continent in which the players experience the world, are divided and there is no strong central government. The world is harsh and cruel and the people are cautious and wary of outsiders, but the wilderness holds riches beyond imagining and secrets long since forgotten. When you discover an ancient and powerful culture is not as far removed from current society as previously believed, your adventuring talents will become a priceless commodity.

This is a PvP server, but we would ask that people act mature about it. We do not plan on having strict rules about this, but if it becomes a problem we may instate some.

Description
Alvaeus is a world created specifically for NWN 2. It is a part of the larger D&D universe, but the world is entirely created by the DMs and builders involved in this project.
The aim of the server is to create a completely immersive and changing world. We will allow the players to change the course of the world, towns will grow or die out, or even burn to the ground depending on what players do.
As far as gameplay goes. The server will be PvP, with some "safe" no-PvP areas such as towns, but for the most part this is a full PvP server and people that join the server should realize this.
In addition, it is our goal to have the server be fun for both hardcore gamers and RP gamers. There will be plenty of dungeons and items to collect, but the nature of the story, amount of DM influenced events, and ability for the character to affect the world should be big pluses for RPers, and we will welcome them. RPing will not be required, but it will be encouraged.
