Forgotten Realms 4D?

Post by Katze » Sat Nov 08, 2014 6:24 pm

With the planer layers and what not, would it also be possible to have an alternate reality rather than just this? is their already some sort of alternate reality in place?

Many things are possible with the help of a DM.

A great postulation to base a mad wizard on, and surely a topic that could spark a lot of debate in-character. I don't see what sort of actual event you could base on this, to be honest, and I am fairly certain the DMs would rather leave this matter of speculation to be a matter of debate, rather than confirm it with any sort of tangible, IC evidence. Correct me if I'm wrong.

Your character is welcome to believe in anything they like.
It might even be true.
It also might not be.
We won't provide any mechanical evidence either way, but if everyone comes to believe something ~is~ true, and you can't prove that it isn't people just assume it is. (See - Religion)

Amia is a Neverwinter Nights roleplay persistent world that was started in December 2004 as a clone of another roleplay persistent world named Arelith. The split between the two servers was caused by different views on how things are done between the Dungeon Masters at that time, and relations between Arelith and Amia are good at the moment. The original Arelith module has been changed a lot. The modules share some common names and areas, but the bulk of the content is new.

Probably hard to play out, depending on what you do with that. It's pretty common for characters to exist on many servers, actually. Having them all be a part of one storyline can be problematic though. Even my very very first character on Arelith was actually my old character from the previous action server I used to play on at the time (Three Towns). I imagine many players here have the same experience.

The reason I say its problematic is that I encourage players to play within the backdrop that we've ALL set up (yes, definitely including the 146,000+ characters that have walked on the isle). It doesn't help to reference things that are outside of our backdrop. Characters that do so dilute the rich world that has been built up here over the last hundred or so game years.

They would have to have goatees, and since Arelith doesn't support the modifications necessary for those, it probably won't work.
