It’s November very soon and I was thinking about posting a list of NWN/NWN2-centric general prompts for each day in November! (Get it? Neverwinter + November? Never-vember?) It’s tricky to figure out since not everyone has played both of the games and all the campaigns in them, so something more general you could choose from to create seemed like the best idea.

You can write the prompt. You can draw the prompt. You can do a combination of both. Comics? Hell yeah. Everything is welcome!

If you decide to do these, please feel free to tag me in each one you do so that I can give you reblogs.

This challenge is not in the least bit binding and it is by no means an obligation or a contest - you can do few, you can do all, you can even do only one if you want. It’s entirely up to you!

Prompts listed below (take artistic license in interpretation if you need):

Day 1: your hero's home in their childhood days

Day 2: Your character meeting your (personal) favorite party member for the first time

Day 3: Your character meeting your (personal) LEAST favorite party member for the first time

Day 4: Your character and chosen party members lounging about at camp or in a tavern

Day 5: An embarrassing situation during an adventure

Day 6: your character's final (or most recent) positive memory from their childhood home

Day 7: Meanwhile, in ____... (this is your chance to write/draw the "other side" or the "b-plot" while your character is off doing something else!)

Day 8: The most impactful event your character went through

Day 9: A party member finding a way to cheer up your character

Day 10: The moment your character formed a (romantic OR friendship) crush

Day 11: Something little-known about your character revealed

Day 12: Your character or a party member is caught red-handed! (By whoever you like, doing anything)

Day 13: Your character saying something they end up regretting later during an argument

Day 14: Your character in a lesser-known location in the games (because some of those places need a little more love) (from the illustrious malgriff)

Day 15: Bridging the gap between campaigns if you keep your hero through any of them (even the lesser-known campaigns) (from the ultimate jorvach)

Day 16: Your hero or one of their party members in therapy (from the fantastical fable sage)

Day 17: Wrongly accused of something they didn't do (you can go with the obvious or not if you like!)

Day 18: Long-term consequences (of politics, society, inter-personal relationships, etc) (from the beauteous the-great-elwisty)

Day 19: Your character stuck with the most annoying party member

Day 20: Unexpected middle ground

Day 21: "Just in case we don't make it-"

Day 22: If Volo (or a newspaper like faerunian TMZ) did a news report on something your hero did (inspired by the wondrous malgriff, songofmadness, and lergahin)

Day 23: Uh-oh! Your hero (or party members or both!) suddenly got affected by a curse which turns them back into children for a day. How do they react or cope? Who looks after them? (from the stupendous songofmadness)

Day 24: Doubts

Day 25: A diary entry or scene described from a side character of your choice (inspired by the glorious songofmadness)

Day 26: In ruins

Day 27: How one of your party members views your own character

Day 28: What happens to the characters long after the game has concluded? Are they still in touch with one another/are the events still relevant to them/have they moved on? (from the mysterious the-great-elwisty)

Day 29: How the adventure should have really ended

I assume you mean NWN1: it's gotta be Valen Shadowbreath, personally.

I like how the person you get to know contrasts with the "outside impression," and I appreciate the potential sides to explore in his character. I admire his sensitivity, his youthful gullibility that's been twisted into hardened cynicism through lessons learned the hard way, the sense of empathy that peeks through the outer carapace of that armor.

Look, I’m just saying that if when Beamdog remade Neverwinter Nights and the DLC they had upgraded some of the portraits we’d all still be talking about this guy (Xanos) like we do about Valen Shadowbreath 

Sometimes I really want to read a short summary of what to expect from a game with a very particular description that CATER to my OWN SPECIFIC interests, so here we go.

what to expect from NEVERWINTER NIGHTS: ORIGINAL CAMPAIGN

isometric rpg, classic DnD fantasy world and lore (Forgotten Realms)

You can play as male or female, a hero just appointed in Neverwinter by Lady Aribeth. You can play any of the classes and fantasy races of DnD

you have to save Neverwinter (city) from the magic plague, then find more about the weird cult behind it

demons!

classic quests, sort of linear storyline (you move from area to area once you start a new chapter, section)

the map is not great, the fight is... not great either, very slow

you can recruit henchmen, some of them are actual characters and have a personal story 

when you travel and fight: only one henchman at a time with you!

betrayal! mysteries! magic!

I remember really enjoying the music

a nice quest (my favourite) where you have to do some detective work and collect clues

Daelan for best orc companion

plot? find out who are the... villains?? Also where did Lady Aribeth go?? gameplay? classic almost isometric rpg, DnD based fights characters? the henchmen have some characterization, but don’t expect Bioware levels. Lady Aribeth is probably the most complete character sadness level? medium low (but it’s been a while since I played this) happy ending? deaths? (spoiler under cut)
