               â€œValstiir, one of the more recent cities to take to the
skies in the mighty empire of the Netheries. A spectacular sight to behold, yet
darkness even here creeps in. Rumours of dark cults spread through the streets,
shadowy organisations lurk in the twisted allies and dark corners of the citadel.
And to make matters worse a new castle floats just of the horizon literally appearing
overnight. In the low lands of the empire beat the drums of war. Barbarian
raiders are growing bolder and stronger putting strain on those that protect
the frontiers. For now the militia hold the line, but for how long? And why
this sudden change in the tribes of the outlands? All the while the political
games are played out all over the city as houses and guild vie for greater control
and more power.”

 

Come and join in on the excitement that is already building
in Netheril Rising. You have the ability to help guide and shape the stories
and alter the outcome or be crushed under the political intrigue that is ripe
in the setting. Rise to power, work for or against the city. Look for it’s
downfall as a dark villain or shape it’s fate as hand of the Lady Arch Mage
Valstiir. What part you play is up to you.

Netheril Rising. A NwN1 Persistent Roleplay Server.

               â€œThe majestic city of Valstiir, floating above these lands; the Netherese are ever content to live in ignorance of those below. But they do so at their own peril, for it is the lands below that supply not only meat and grain for their stock-holds, but materials to build the very homes they shelter themselves in.  It is undoubtedly these lower lands that support the Floating Gargantuan above and all is not well in these untamed lands.

Hadrian sits as a perfect example of lower Netheril life, perched on what is claimed as the “Netherese Frontier”. This town is resilient, and it’s people more so. But barbaric hordes lie within the surrounding plains and mountains making life a short and brutal affair for many leaving Hadrian’s palisade walls.

West of the frontier town, fierce goblins amass within a decrepit fort, constant raids and skirmishes upon their settlement from adventuring folk and armed frontiersmen have not slowed their population, nor thirst for blood. Hadrian’s Imperial force is undermanned and spread thin; defense outside of the town’s own walls is simply not an option.

Taking advantage of this defensive stalemate, savage orcs stir across the river. The unnerving sounds of war drums haunt the residents throughout the nights. Had the orcs one strong and willful enough to lead them, death and war would surely follow, and Hadrian would be swallowed in a sea of blood and fire.

If not of enough concern, a perpetual green and poisonous fog has settled across the nearby Marshlands to the East, local farmers and tavern-folk claim that at night, the hazed light of campfires can be spotted throughout the noxious fog, accompanied with the sounds of scraping, digging and cursing, only to have been extinguished by dawn’s break...”
