It is strongly recommended that players who wish to participate in this event log on to Karador prior to the event to make and equip their character, as well as familiarize themselves with the custom rules.
Long ago, the city state of Phlan was over run with a great army monsters driven by a dragon warlord, and the survivors fled across the sea. A generation passed and the former folk of Phlan yearned for what was once the wealth that was their family’s. With the Dragon gone and the monster army deteriorated, the descendants of Phlan have hatched a plan to retake their ancestral home. Mercenaries, merchants, ships and craftsmen were hired and the Harbor of Phlan was retaken and rebuilt. Further efforts to liberate more parts Phlan are currently underway. The city Counsel has much work for mercenaries and adventures who would come to their aid and sell their services.
For too long has the old city graveyard been neglected. Since the return of people to Phlan they have know that something wicked had taken up in the Valhingen Crypts. The old graveyard across the shores of the Barren River is the place where for 100 years the massive city buried all of their dead. Now something dwells there that calls the dead to rise up again and roam. Though at the moment the undead in the graveyard pose no direct threat to the great walled city of Phlan across the river; there is another consideration. The residents of Phlan and it’s leaders are deeply troubled at the thought of their forefathers being defiled in such a way. They ask themselves if life ever after or the resurrection in the world to come will be impeded by this desecration. A quest has been ordered by the city council. 5000 gold has been offered to destroy what ever it is in the graveyard that bring the resting forbearers of Phlan into undeath.
The Pool of Radiance was a classical AD&D computer game by SSI. This epic adventure is being recreated for NWN on the World of Karador. Each week, Negalith will present a single stand alone adventure which takes place as a quest in Phlan. Though all of the single adventures together make up a campaign based on the Liberation of the once great kingdom, participants are welcome on an adventure by adventure basis.
In addition to the CEP, Karador also utilizes The CCP, The Community Creature Project. Please have this HAK pack before logging onto Karador. It can be found on the vault here. http://nwvault.ign.com/View.php?view=Hakpaks.Detail&id=7121
