The Moonsea is rich, indeed . . . gold and jewels, valuable pelts, and old ruins ripe for plundering. But it is a hard place to live — cold, brutal, and dangerous, and it makes the men who live there into something much the same, tempering the soft iron of their spirits into cold, sharp steel. The people of the Moonsea are hard and unforgiving because if they weren't they'd be dead at the hands of monsters, tyrants, or the cruel turns of nature herself." — Khelben "Blackstaff" Arunsun

Welcome to Moonsea Adventures, an NWN2 persistent world, based on the region of Forgotten Realms known as the Moonsea. We use both AD&D and D&D 3.5 sources for reference, and the fertile imaginations of our design team, to bring you an immersive and exciting experience in this harsh, unforgiving, conflicted, and intrigue-filled region. Check back here for updates as they come.

4/19/09 The Server is currently offline and on hiatus, we are no longer an active persistent world, and will be a private campaign server with weekley sesssions. Our bulletin boards have been changed to reflect this, so stop by if you are interested in joining the campaign.
