The Ten-Minute Background
In an attempt to get all the information I need to create stuff from character backgrounds without having to continually push for information, I am asking that you create backgrounds the following way:
Step 1: Write 5 background and concept elements that you feel are important to your image of the character. These can be a concept overview, a list of important life events, a physical description, a personality profile...whatever you need to get an image in your mind. 5 is just a minimum...more elements are encouraged!
[Example: Martin Tenbones]
1) He is a former pirate and retired adventurer and now owns a tavern in the city of St. Clarice.
2) He is outgoing and charismatic, and attempts to keep abreast of all the local gossip and juicy secrets that pass his way, because he believes that knowledge is power.
3) He and his former adventuring band fought against the forces of the pirate captain Craven, who was a major lieutenant for the current Dread Pirate Hellbeard. He used the wealth that he acquired to build his tavern, but he sometimes worries that the pirates may one day decide to find him and extract revenge.
4) Though he is still friends with most of his former adventuring mates, some of them parted the group on bad terms. His girlfriend went back to the sea to fight pirates once more, but he received word that her vessel was taken by Hellbeard and believes she was killed. He mourns her death.
5) Although he is retired, he can be convinced to adventure again if he hears that Sasha (his lost love) may still be alive, or if he is contacted by the White Foxes during a crisis (see secrets).
Step 2: List at least two goals for the character. At least one of these goals should be one that the character has, while another should be one that you, as a player, want to see developed over the course of the game.
[Example]
1) I would like to see Martin reunited with his lost love and perhaps able to mend fences with some of his former adventuring buddies over the course of this campaign.
2) It would be cool to have Martin face and possibly defeat the Dread Pirate Hellbeard once and for all.
Step 3: List at least two secrets about your character. One is a secret the character knows, one is a secret that involves him but that he is not actually aware of yet. This will help me in creating plots that center around your character. I will also be creating a third secret which you as a player will not be aware of, so expect some surprises!
[Example]
1) Martin is a member of the White Fox Society, a secret society dedicated to keeping Coralton free of tyranny and evil, as well as keeping local governments honest. He provides information and rumors to them, but can be convinced to take a more active roll if pressed.
2) Sasha LeBell, Marin's lost love, is still alive. She was captured by the Dread Pirate Hellbeard and has been kept as his captive for all these years.
3) (Example of a secret I might make up about your character): Not only is Sasha alive, but also she has escaped captivity and killed Hellbeard. She has taken over his ship and crew, and has turned to piracy out of bitterness. She now IS the new Dread Pirate Hellbeard!
Step 4: Describe at least three people that are tied to the character. Two of them are friendly to the character, one is hostile. If you like, you can include an enemy of yours here as well, so I have an instant NPC nemesis to throw at you.
[Example]
1) Martin's friend Audric Cwellen was one of his adventuring mate. Audric, a holy warrior in the service of the Goddess of Love, is the leader of the local cell of the White Fox society, and provides Martin with information and adventure hooks.
2) Another of Martin's old traveling companions, Aubrey LeVaine, is not as helpful as Audric, because they quarreled over the love of Sasha, and Aubrey is still bitter about losing her to Martin. Still, he can provide some magical support if Martin can convince him to let go of his hate.
3) Yebin Thistledown is a strange little creature from the Feywild called a gnome. Martin met the gnome in the Shroudmist Forest and saved him from a pack of Howlers. The Gnome makes all sorts of alchemical items and gadgets, and loves collecting odd souvenirs and items, as well as "recreational herbs." He operates a bizarre patchwork shop in the Rue Angélique district.
Step 5: Describe three memories, mannerisms, or quirks that your character has. They don't have to be elaborate, but they should provide some context and flavor.
[Example]
1) Martin remembers growing up in a tavern as a young boy, helping his mother with the cooking. This started his own interest in the culinary arts.
2) Martin remembers the panic he felt when he discovered that the ship he signed on to was a pirate ship after a brutal attack on a merchantman. He vividly recalls the smell of blood and burning timbers.
3) Martin often recalls the goodbye kiss he gave Sasha when she left him. No kiss he's had since ever compares to that memory.
[design notes for the example character] Martin began life as an atypical barkeep. He was a retired adventurer, but still young and vigorous enough to accompany the party on their adventures. His tavern became the party's base for a while, until the BBEG of the game let off a necromantic bomb that killed most of the townsfolk and turned the town into a Zombie Apocalypse nightmare. Martin survived, and he turned into a secondary character for one of the players as he became more important to the ongoing storyline. Most of his background came from this transition from NPC to part-time PC. After the campaign reboot, Martin returned to his role as the barkeep of the party's favorite hang-out, but the players like him enough that he might return to adventuring status in the future.

Unconventional Player Characters
This series was originally written for the online zine, RPG Times.
We have plenty of articles on specific techniques or areas of roleplaying, but we've also written things that apply to gamemastering (GMing) in a more general sense. We'll start with A Few Quick, Fluffy Guidelines of Gamemastering which summarizes some of our major points that we make in more detail in other articles.
The State of Free Will in Roleplaying: Since we believe that many of the arguments about free will stem from misconceptions and confusions, you should read this article first. Once you understand exactly how we're using our terminology, as well as why we feel so strongly about these issues, the rest of this will make a lot more sense.

Just saw this by OldTimeRadio and think it deserves its own little prop and shout out.
NWN Omnibus
An ENORMOUS collection of searchable NWN reference material in one place!
View the introduction on YouTube, HERE
What is the NWN Omnibus?
It is an attempt to gather the majority of NWN reference material together in one place and allow very quick keyword searching against all of the documents at once. It includes reference documents as well as forum threads.
Who is going to get the most out of the NWN Omnibus?
Any NWN Custom Content creator or NWScript writer who finds themselves frequently searching through the old BioWare forums using Google, the NWN Lexicon, or the BioWare "For Developers" documents for specific topics. Since so much raw information is available for searching, those who will get the very most out of the Omnibus are individuals who already have a decent working knowledge of how Custom Content and NWScript work but who often find themselves needing to look up specific keywords or topics to further advance their pursuits.
Is it complete?
No! This release of the NWN Omnibus comes with a huge amount of information to search through but I still think there's more useful information which can be included in the future. Offline versions of the DLA Custom Content Wiki, a few more of the old archived BioWare forums, reference sheets for BioWare tileset textures...and so on, and so on. I encourage others to experiment with their own combination of reference materials, customizing the Omnibus so it is most useful for their needs.
What program drives the NWN Omnibus?
The Omnibus is a customized version of a portable DocFetcher distribution. You can also find the Wiki for DocFetcher here.
What programs were used to make the NWN Omnibus?
Since DocFetcher works best with html, most of the programs involved were tools which converted (whatever) to html. For PDF conversion, I used pdftohtml. For CHM, CHMDecoder. For downloading the BioWare forums, I used ForumD
Does having the NWN Omnibus mean I don't need to download all that other reference material, individually?
Well...yes and no. It depends on how knowledgeable you are in the first place. For the most part, you shouldn't need to download the information separately. But because there is an enormous amount of material in the Omnibus and because the material has been converted to html from various other formats (like PDF or CHM) some of the material might not look as good as it does in its original form. Good examples of material which didn't convert as well as I would like are portions of Eligio Sacateca's Custom Content Guide and script snippets from the BioWare Scripting forum. In cases like that, the NWN Omnibus helps at least pinpoint whether a particular resource has information on the topic one is searching for. Remember, the NWN Omnibus is a powerful topic search tool. Trying to learn the basics of Custom Content from the NWN Omnibus' version of Custom Content Guide is going to be quite a bit more difficult than just reading through Eligio's guide directly.
Can I add my own information into the NWN Omnibus?
Yes, DocFetcher is extremely flexible and allows adding or removing indices quite easily. Download the portable version and play around with making your own customized distributions. If you release DocFetcher-friendly modules to the Vault, just drop me a PM on the BioWare social site (or write me from my Vault profile) and I'll try to add a link to your entry.
How do I install and run it?
Just unpack it to a folder on your hard drive with about 500 megabytes free and you're good to go! It should also work perfectly from a USB thumb drive. Just run DocFetcher.exe (or DocFetcher.sh for Linux, I believe)
What information does this release of the NWN Omnibus contain?
2DA 169 - All 575 .2DA files, current to the 1.69 release
3DS Max Export Scripts - BioWare 3DS Max export scripts documentation, which includes a good deal of information on NWN Custom Content in general. Downloadable separately here
BioWare For Developers - All 22 documents covering NWN file formats (and other things) from this page
BioWare Forums - Offline archives of the following forums from the old BioWare website, each thread in its own .HTML file. The following full forum archives from the old BioWare site are included in this release: NWN Custom Content (ARCHIVE), BioWare News Discussion, Custom Content, For Developers, Scripting, Server Admin & Toolset. Also Stickied threads for every forum were included.
Custom Content Guide 3.0 - The "Bible" of Custom Content. Downloadable separately here.
GMax & Maxscript Help - Help files for GMax (3DS Max 4) and Maxscript, downloadable separately here
Lexicon 169 - The "Bible" of NWScript (and many, many other things as well!), downloadable separately here
Tileset Construction - BioWare's NWN Tileset Construction Tutorial, downloadable separately here. I don't include any of the files, just index the information.
TXI - Every TXI officially released by BioWare as part of their content, segregated by the bif they were found in. Extremely useful for looking up how certain TXI commands were used by BioWare and whether other commands or setting were typically paired with them.

Hello all fellow NWN:ers! Wanted to bring to your attention that we have this guild/community thingie over at the X-Fire site.
The aim of this community is to help players joining and finding servers by communicating with each other. No one wants to play alone... We have a couple of tips on servers on the front page but we play on any other good servers as well. You are welcome to post your own favorite servers in the forums over there and you can ask me if you want to make announcments in the news section.
X-Fire is a chat software with a serverbrowser and many other features:
- See what game and on what servers your friends are playing. Join them with one click.
- See where the friends of your friends are playing.
- Chat directly. Messages will pop up in-game. No need to ALT+TAB anymore to check your MSN.
- MSN support and others. So you can send ye' ol' Microsoft application into the grave.
- Voice chat ( 1on1 or group)
- It automizes taking screenshots and video and putting them on the webb. You can even have live streaming from your gaming session from your computer onto the website.
- Join guilds and get access to all the members in your friends list.
