Poll Information:
The above poll is for data gathering purposes only to gauge interest in if players would be interested to see a successor to the Isles of Styss theme of modules. Keep the following in mind:
This is not a direct remake of Isles of Styss - rather it is a remake in SPIRIT, meaning it will be essentially like IoS, but not exactly the same.
The premise of this server is to remake the popular Isles of Styss server (or it's many various named alternatives) with the broad customization and amazing scripting available to the Sinfar server.
This server would have a separate server vault from the main server.
Characters who would join this server would be level 40 instantly. Character progression would be done by way of itemization. Gear would drop from various creatures in the realms, and better gear would help players fight tougher monsters, and thus attain even better gear.
Gear on the server would be colorized in name much in the way most multiplayer rpg's do loot: White named items are common. Green is uncommon. Blue is rare. Purple is epic. Orange is legendary. Tan is artifact.
The server would support a neutral city for rp - along with 2-3 other cities "at war" with one another over the server's plot and setting. Characters in the world will have influence on how the story of the server progresses. The server will have a "living story" - meaning that every couple of months a major update based on happenings would be pushed through and change the world you play in depending on the successes - and failures - of it's inhabitants.
PVP Balance on the server would likely be returned to a mostly basic nwn balance, with some quality of life changes to provide some balance needed to the basic game. Discussions on the balance would be up for community discussion and staff would eventually set in stone the most desired changes before the server launches.
Any questions can be asked below. As stated before, this is merely a general seeking of "Desire" for such a server to be made. Specifics will be hammered out later if the interest is there!
