Details about Verossa and nation of Drotid for a new pc

Post by Sola » Sun Jun 29, 2003 8:20 pm

After getting used to NWN engine and roleplaying in net I'm planning to make a new character and I have few questions regarding details in the world of Avlis. I've made a little biography for my character. It would be nice to hear of this sound completely impossible.

First I choosed a half-orc as race for my character and I have made an assumptations that half-orcs are not as stupid as in 3 ed. as orcs are intelligent creatures in Avlis.

He was a slave in the nation of the Drotid since he was born. As a strong creature he was assigned to physical work which was harvesting and same kind of work. There was a lot older coworker who taught him how to survive in the harsh conditions of local nature. As time passed he learned more about coping and cooperating with nature until one day an attempt to redirect a marsh failed totally. During the confusion some slaves, including my pc, managed to escape.

Travelling trough challenging nature of Drotid and and an oppurtunity to escape sealed the decision young half-orc has been pondering and finally he decided to devote his life to nature and worshipping Verossa. His decision was rewarded quickly as he gained a companion from a spider which guided him trough the swamps.

At the moment he is near the city of Mikona ...

I would appreciate if someone could provide a little more information about Drotid so that I could adjust little details.

And after all that the hardest part: character name :)

Ps. I've enjoyd my stay in Avlis and can't express my gratitude to the team which has made this world come true.

Yes I have already read that. By details I mean, for example, climate which affects to skin color color and so on but thanks anyway.
I would gladly hear comments on oveview as details can be adjusted only after the basic idea is functional.

Climate in Drotid is moist jungle, and some swamps. By inference, you could definitely say it rains a lot there.
