Description
-- NYMRI IS NO MORE --
Sorry folks, but we had to take it down due to lack of NWN2 players for this server.
Very Sad!!!
=== === === === === === === === === ===
"Welcome to me fire stranger. Drop yer pack by that rock there and warm yerself. Tis a cold night out and with the clouds so thick, it'll be pitch black before long. If ya na want to end up on the bloody end of some Uraak's spear, ye best rest here til morning. Me? Oh, I am Durin Girmok. Ye can call me Girmok. I'm a watcher in the third shield of Durin. Tis me cycle to be on patrol. I been patrolling one cycle out of seven for ner eight years now. Me primary duty is to watch the eastern hills for Uraak movement. They usually keep to the sands, but come cold weather, when food be sparse, they come up into the hills here. They na care if'n they eat boar, deer, wolf or man. It all be meat to them."
"With all the wars going on, Nymri has become angry and troubled. Karakungor is always trying to destroy the Uraaks. Ireth be warring with their swamp demons and Durmont has still got troubles from the goblins. I mean, how hard can a hill of goblins be anyway? You�re headed to Durmont ya say? Well that's good, cause I be head'n there too. I need to report to the Shield Master there. So, we can travel the road together then. There's always strength in numbers. Durmont's na too bad a place - if yer a human or ya don't mind them. But life is hard there. For some reason, ever since the humans came to Nymri, they have been plagued with bad luck. I think the gods be sport'n against them. Well, get some sleep. I be keep'n watch. There be plenty a time for me to sleep when we reach Durmont tomorrow."
Server Overview
Nymri is a war-torn, low-magic, role-playing world, with consistent time and a realistic player driven economy. Hack 'n' Slash will probably get you killed and death is very costly. Expect to find your character initially crafting and doing odd jobs for the town folk to make ends meet. Eventually, your character will establish a good relationship with some NPCs and be offered more difficult tasks. Your personal relationships with various NPCs will determine the path for your character. The DMs will be aware of these relationships and use them to spawn DM-Driven plots specifically for your character.
Nymri has a realistic crafting system designed to allow the characters to produce almost every item in the world. Nymri also has a slow level progression. It should take a player 450+ real hours of playtime to get to 20th level. And that is provided the character never died along the way. There is a Task For Level (TFL) system every five levels which means that in order to advance to levels 5, 10, 15 or 20, your character must perform a DM assigned task appropriate to your character's class and level.
Nymri is an Ultra Hard Core Rules (HCR) server and our mantra is that we will do everything within our power to make the world as realistic as the game engine allows. If you enjoy a challenge, great story and love to role-play, then Nymri might be the place for you. Come check us out at [url]http://www.WizardStorm.com.[/url]
There is a ridiculous amount of flaws with this PW. First, they expect you read through the Player's Guide before you connect which would be fine if it was actually compete and accurate. Half of the sections in it are completely blank. Of the information that that is there, I found 4 inaccuracies after just 30 minutes of play; Example, the in-game crafting system does not function anything like the way it is explained in the Guide. This brings us to the Second flaw, you'd think the more experienced players and DMs would be more helpful towards the new players. God forbid you ask somebody for help, because most of the players and DMs are elitist snobs. I asked 4 people about the crafting system, only 1 actually answered the question, 2 just ignored me, and the DM threatened to ban me for not reading the Player's Guide and not following the RP rules. Flaw number 3, if there is no DM online there is nothing to do, unless you like spending days on end just standing around talking to other PC's like a bunch of old men at the Hardy's early bird special, or crafting sub-standard items over and over again. There are supposed to be generic starting quests, but they are incomplete. Bottom line: Good concept, poor execution, and zero support.

I took a look at this server and it seems very solid

Best PW I've ever played on. Tons of heart put into the custom systems and extremely large world. Try it if you're into NWN!

A fantastic world with diverse deities, not your typical D&D, new monetary system, CNR crafting, low level magic and great RP. If you enjoy RP please join us. Sinjin Kane

Nice PW, alot of potential. If you like poor boy adventuring this is your place, I myself prefer greater rewards for the challenges I face. _________________________ The Grouse Ruffler

@ thorolac - Thanks. We have been working very hard for several weeks to finish up the new crafting system. We took the work that was started on Craftable Natural Resources (CNR) for NWN2 and completed it as well as integrated it into the Hard Core Rules 2 (HCR2) system. Of course, there were some tweaks to get it right for Nymri too. All in all, it had been a big undertaking, but I think it was well worth it. _________________________ Peace, Jim AKA Urlord Visit the Persistent World of Nymri

Great world, The crafting system is very good. The DM's are very friendly towards new players. I will be playing on the server for quite some time.

Thank you all for the great comments. As far as Nymri being so hard, it can be hard if you don't take it slow. You must remember that normally simple creatures on some servers (like goblins) are tough here. Their AI is improved, they are organized from decades of war and they have decent equipment. The are also a culture, complete with classed characters. At first level, PCs are considered to be green behind the ears. They should tread lightly, practice hunting animals and small things like beetles and don't engage in hand to hand unless you have to. Get a missile weapon and use it. Another hint is to find a higher level PC and offer to assist them in exchange for training. Basically, find a mentor. They may have you doing the crappy things that they don't like doing, but isn't that what the apprentice is supposed to do? If you haven't given Nymri a try, I suggest you do. It just may grow on ya! _________________________ Peace, Jim AKA Urlord Visit the Persistent World of Nymri
