Special Rules for the event

- If you are entirely new to NWN, Ravenloft or the concept of actual, true roleplay, we have a FAQ here: http://www.nwnravenloft.com/forum/index.php?topic=29190.0 - For those new to the server looking for basic info about how to actually play, get all info here: http://www.nwnravenloft.com/forum/index.php?topic=862.0 - You can create your character pre-event and still use it for the event, as long as the character hasn't passed through the intro-cutscene.- If you've created a character before the event and have passed through the intro-cutscene with it, there will be ordinances available that allows converting pre-played characters to be eligible for taking part in the event. This however entails loosing all acquired items and XP.- Remember that while finding people to revive a friend or the sufficient gold to have an NPC do it will be hard during the event, the XP loss of using the shaft of light in the Near Ethereal to restore you to life is very small at lower levels.- All pre-existing characters have their starting points relocated to points outside the zone of the event if logging in while it's running. If you would like to avoid this, simply refrain from logging on to that character during the event.- Players that prior to the event own characters that are members of a faction is allowed to make a new character for the event that starts out as a member of this faction. The exception to this rule is characters of the Ba'al Verzi, the Dawnslayers, the Van Ritchen Society and the Fraternity of Shadows factions.- Players that prior to the event own a AMPC or MPC character can make new characters for the event that start out as AMPC. They will have a maximum lifespan of the event.- Players that do not prior to the event own an AMPC or MPC character but wish to make one for the event can apply for that on the usual AMPC terms. We will however be more lenient toward accepting such AMPCs compared to usual.- Players who do not want to take part in the event but rather roleplay their existing characters outside the zone of the event is allowed to, but have to make up their own IC reasoning as to why they ended up outside the zone.
