What is Netheril?
This question has circulated around the server since its inception, and has been pushed back, and alluded toward different answers for long enough. We are a Roleplaying Enforced server, where players are encouraged to have their own brand of fun. We aim to facilitate the tools to create interesting personal stories, and to also drop in exciting moments as Dungeon Masters that you won't see coming. We want to have goals players can work towards, but we also want other players to push each other towards some of their own personal goals.
We want you to have fun, to put it simply. If you prefer killing monsters, or if you prefer sitting in the inn, sharing your bards tale. If you prefer politics, or if you prefer crafting. We want to facilitate you having your own brand of fun. The mechanics of the server are as follows however:
Level Range: 2-20, with XP being fairly easy to come by from levels 2 to 10, and then slowing down to a reasonable challenge from 10 to 15, and having to be dedicated toward the cause from 15-20. This is the curve we WANT, it is not the curve we HAVE. This is being worked on.
Item Level: Low-Medium to Medium - We want magic items to be common, but good magic items to be hard to come by. This means +1's are common, +2 (and equivalent) are uncommon, +3 are rare, and beyond is quite the treasure to have. We are working towards addressing this too, many of you may have noticed +1 items popping up in shops.
Magic Level: Medium-High to High - We are the age of Magic. This is why we chose this character level, we want to see cool magic from both the world and the PCs that inhabit it. We're looking towards making a new spell hak soon, similar to how we added the 0-2 circle spells.
Feature Heavy: We want to knock your socks off with the amount of content that is in our server. We don't ever want you bored, or wanting. Class content and balance is coming. Player housing is coming. New exciting quests are coming. Just be patient with us, and you'll get everything as soon as we can get it out.

New Features / Crafting Addition: Brew Potion
« on: June 19, 2018, 09:16:10 am »
As of now you can brew potions at the appropriate workstation. Enjoy, and report any weirdness.
Characters with Brew Potion can learn how crafting works by using the workstation.
You may ask a DM for a one-time relevel to take Brew Potion, if you wish to brew since the system wasn't in the game when we started.

Messages from the Enclave / A call for resources...
« on: May 02, 2018, 03:14:17 pm »
By edict of Archmage Vyctoria Valstiir,
It is time for the Houses which reside within our Enclave to start pulling their weight. Valstiir is currently in need of raw resources to build and expand on the Enclave. Whichever house proves to be the most beneficial shall be richly rewarded.
[A flourished signature, wherein only two 'V's are exceptionally readable..]

OOC: As of next reset a new resource collection system is in. It will track not only your donations to the houses, but also the houses total contribution. Coming very soon will be a way to exchange the Resource Points you accrue for interesting goods, and boons from the houses.

Mechanical Changes / Re: Netheril Reputation and Prestige System
« on: April 08, 2018, 10:24:02 pm »
It is very important that you the player, make nominations for reputation shifts if you see someone doing something interesting regarding a faction! It is through these nominations that characters can gain fame, or noteriety!

Mechanical Changes / Netheril Reputation and Prestige System ( ON HOLD )
« on: April 08, 2018, 10:22:18 pm »Reputation and Prestige System (RAPS)
Within Netheril, there are a number of factions that make up the Powers of the city and the surrounding regions. These are at the time of writing this: House Skettus, House Dukarrus, House Reschotti, The Arcanists Guild, and the Knights of the Lady. Each of these factions have a scale from -100 to 100 regarding how well you are known by them as a whole. While a person with -50 reputation would be seen as a villan against their cause, +50 would be someone who has time and again proved to be their champion!
All PCs start out with 0 Reputation. They are totally unknown by the factions, and unassuming! As a PC starts doing things around the world that the powers would notice, they’ll start either growing, or reducing their reputation. This is done though Player Recommendations.(That’s you!)
Before we get into how to nominate a player for a Reputation Shift, let’s first dive into what Reputation means realistically in the game. When a player accrues positive Reputation, so too do they gain potential to earn a currency called Prestige. This Prestige is something that can be earned without a DM in some cases, and can be rewarded to players likewise. Throughout the module there are different ways to spend your prestige, from acquiring a deed to buy land, to small shops that let you get some faction gear. You may also spend Prestige on DMable Actions. (Things like speaking to a minor noble, getting someone to vouch for you, etc..) You may only have as much Prestige as you have Reputation with a Faction. Think of Reputation like a wallet that can only hold as much Prestige as it is large.
Negative Reputation is different. Sometimes you are required to get negative reputation to fulfil a task. Negative reputation is also notoriety, get it too high and you might just find some of the factions Thugs putting a bounty on you, or trying to beat you up!
Now that you know what these things are, how do you get them?
Reputation is earned SOLEY through actions that are witnessed by others. If you see someone doing something interesting for (or against!) a faction, you should nominate them for a Reputation Shift. This is done by simply clicking them with your player Tool and following the prompts.
If you want to nominate an offline player, you can use the /raps command in game to bring up a wizard that will let you find the player you’re looking for. You can also use /raps to check your own situations.
Prestige is earned through doing tasks for a faction. Some quests may give you prestige as part of the reward, or a DM might hand it out for helping a faction.

Hey there, I'm deltaTime. I've been a part of Neverwinter Nights, and Neverwinter Nights has been a part of me for over 10 years. I am the servers Lead Scripter, and I enjoy DMing in the times I am not in the toolset. Some of my biggest interests are faction rivalries, and small things to make them feel more alive.
Feel free to approach me about anything the server is lacking, and I will happily look into it.
