Hello
Longtime NwN player who has played primarily City of Arabel for the last 13 years or so but has also dabbled in Escape from the Underdark. Look forward to RPing with you all soon.

Re: Hello
So a few questions
1) Is there any particular forum to put IC corrspondances?
2) What are the rules governing PvP? I checked the rules section and didn't see anything
3) Do you have an IRC channel in addition to Skype?
4) How much can players influence the world? Do you support in game politics at all?

Re: Hello
1) I'm guessing the Offline RP section would do. Of course if it's public correspondence (?) then The Messageboard would be more suitable.
2)These may be outdated/excessively detailed, but I took the liberty of digging them out of the old forums considering rules are lacking in the new ones here.
The vibe I've gotten from the folks that run this place so beautifully is that they do not want to encourage a rule-heavy playground and honestly in my opinion if someone can't handle themselves in these situations without major hassles or without drama and specifically being unable to have fun at it, then this is probably the wrong server for them. Though admittedly I have not seen much PvP done here at all.
3) viewtopic.php?f=1&t=10
4) To me the server feels like a more authentic DnD adventure experience in the Forgotten Realms and as such there is not so much intrigue or behind-the-scenes politics RP that you might expect from a server where PvP or even RP/dialogue-based conflict between parties occurs consistently, like say, in a Ravenloft server, though I've only heard others' experiences of such and haven't played myself in them. Of course the server is relatively small in population (though in recent weeks it has grown substantially) and as such some liberties can be afforded with much less hassle in terms of impacting the world development wise in reaction to player character actions.
Hope this helps, have a good one. Pony out.

Re: Hello
As Pony has kindly provided answers to most of your questions I will only elaborate further on Point #4.
TER does cater to a variety of players, some who prefer to go adventure-heavy, while others enjoy the more social aspects of roleplay. There is no right or wrong in either of those ways to enjoy the server and we like for you to be able to indulge in what you want. It is certainly possible to influence the world and to have your character get involved in local politics. For a player-driven example, see CopperDragon's initiative here.
These currently would largely be confined to NPC interactions where necessary. You can of course gather your own group, form your own faction and politick the day away with others. But influencing the world will not happen overnight and may involve a lot of hard work, money and numerous setbacks - in no particular order.
We encourage players who are interested in politics RP or dialogue-based plots to contact our DM team so that we can help you bring TER alive for your purposes. This helps us to know what you'd like and to create opportunities for your character and other players in turn.
