Dark Hour is a Zombie Survival creative project with many systems, old and new, that can be markedly different than the average NwN server. Here are our systems in place and details on things enabled or disabled: - Survival Time XP: Your character earns experience the longer they survive.
- Badge System XP: Your character can earn XP for discovering certain spots on the server, or battling certain things.
- Spawn Kill XP: Disabled. XP can still be earned for fighting certain things.
- Disease System: Your character can be struck by zombies and required to make a saving throw to resist disease. If you fail you acquire a 'disease token'. Don't collect too many, or you'll be weakened along the way, and eventually turn into a zombie!
- Hunger System: Your character will need to eat to survive. Our hunger system fires automatically, no need to manually consume food. Food can be Searched for.
- Search Spot Supplies: Your character will search in specific spots on the server for their food and supplies. This uses the NwN SEARCH skill.
- Death System: There is no respawning. Death begins with a rapid bleeding stage where someone can be quickly healed. Potions do NOT heal other PC's on this server. Otherwise death is permanent, unless another character can Raise you with a scroll (no character can cast Raise Dead at max level 8), Heal you with a very rare tool which relies on a skill roll, or bring you back from the Fugue with a collection of very rare items. It is frowned upon to OOCly ask strangers or characters nowhere near you to come save you. We have some forgiveness for crash or lag deaths but do not abuse this.
- Subdual System: For PvP. Because death is permanent and serious, it is recommended to fight to disable characters. Use the Subdual Widget in your inventory. See our PvP Rules
- Party System: Joining a Party is disabled unless your character possesses a Ring of Kinship .
- Profession System: Use your Profession widget upon starting to pick a Background/Profession for your character. Some professions are class or ability specific- not all are available to all characters. Some of these professions require local Sirandian characters- please read our Lore. Professions give characters varying bonuses such as specific gear or creature skins. **This system functions but is currently being worked on/overhauled, more details to come soon!**
- Crafting System: We have a crafting system allowing characters to make simple and low magic gear using the Craft Armor/Craft Weapon skill. This system requires scavenged Crafting Points to use.
- Tailoring/Dying System: CEP tailoring systems available from Cignet in the start area, and through the OOC lounge in the Rest menu. Clothing, cloaks and helmets can be dyed with a 'Dye Kit' item.
- Disabled: Brew Potion/Scribe Scroll: Disabled for now, this system asks for more gold and xp than you may be able to earn.
- Disabled: Pickpocket: We don't support the Pickpocket system at this time. If you'd like to pick pockets, roleplay and make some rolls, but keep in mind Pickpocketing is grounds for PvP. See our PvP rules.
- Enabled: Craft Armor/Weapon: Used for the Crafting System above.
- Language System: Your character can learn race and class languages and one more per INT modifier. Use the Language Selector to choose these. Use the language widget and type /dm [Blahblahblah] to speak.
- Prestige Classes: Standard NwN PRC's are unlocked and enabled
- Paladin Horses: Horses cause lag and are currently too unbalanced for our server. If your paladin reaches level 5 they can request a replacement summon/thing instead.
