 A Land Far Away—a magical term that gives rise to mental images of exotic lands and exciting adventures. A Land Far Wway—the setting of countless fairy-tales and myriad bed-time stories. A Land Far Away—that special place that we all go to when we need to escape the pressures and vicissitudes of life—A Land Far Away.

Welcome to ALFA, A Land Far Away, a persistent world where the vastness and wonder of the Dungeons & Dragons™ universe takes on a virtual life all its own. A place where like-minded role-players of all ages, races, cultures, and creeds gather together to experience the wonder and glory of a thousand shared imaginations. A place where the raconteur reigns supreme while holding others spellbound; a place where every decision has consequences; a place where the games unfold before your eyes.

ALFA recreates the Forgotten Realms in digital form, through Bioware's Neverwinter Nights and its expansions, Shadows of Undrentide and Hordes of the Underdark, and most recently Obsidian's Neverwinter Nights 2 and its expansion, Mask of the Betrayer. ALFA servers dot the map of Faerûn, both above ground and in the shadows of the Underdark. Each server represents a distinct area of the continent of Faerûn, from Icewind Dale in the frozen north to the Baldur's Gate on the Sword Coast. Each server is linked to those nearest it by a portal system, so that player characters may cross the dangerous marches of one server to its border and travel far away, if travel be in their nature. To play on an ALFA server, a player must apply and be accepted to ALFA.

Our players believe that adventure lies in playing out a character's life in all its depth: honor and depravity, love and hate… and the blood and sweat that comes with existence in embattled Faerûn.

Hail and Well Met, traveler, the roads of ALFA lie before you, their infinite destinations missing only the unique imprint of your footsteps. Enter—we await you inside.

• ALFA and Exodus Merge - Extending a Hand

A Land Far Away and it's sister world, Exodus, have recently begun talks about ways in which we can work toward bringing our two communities closer. Our worlds already share a lot in common. We both have very similar outlooks on roleplaying; both worlds thrive on DM propelled adventure; and both worlds even share the same base haks. All these things makes ALFA and Exodus obvious partners in building our communities of gamers in lands of adventure.



As such, Exodus and A Land Far Away have set in course a plan to set down the road of intergration for our communities. As of today, ALFA and Exodus have decided to combine membership pools.



That means if you are a member of one community, you are now able to play in either one at will! Meaning more DMs, more players, more great worlds to explore.



With Exodus and A Land Far Away joining forces, it brings a total of three massive servers, spanning areas of the Silver Marshes, the legionary city of Baldur's Gate, and the exotic, war-torn state of Amn. Not to mention a large pool of active DMs, a fantastic, friendly community (or two), a dedicated support team and countless hours of brilliant adventure and roleplay.



We consider this the opening of the first gate on the path to a more integrated, closer working community in which persistent worlds such as ours can thrive.



If you are not a current member but would like to find out more about either of these two top-notch Persistent World roleplay servers, don't waste a moment to head along to either website and check us out.

A Land Far Away has added a fourth Live server, this one covering the Western Heartlands of Faerun. This covers the lands along the Trade Way from Dragonspear Castle to Soubar, including Boarskeyr Bridge. Congratulations to HDM Teric and his team for bringing this area to life.
