Player Policies
We welcome new gamers and experienced gamers. Role-playing in games involves developing a character’s background and motivations. With the character in mind, the player than responds in-character to the game environment and other player’s characters. There are no winners or losers. The goal of the game is to have fun. Gaming style is a personal matter. We recognize there exist different styles of gaming. It is not our purpose to deem one style better than another. With that said, Annakolia is a role-playing server. This is the preference of the hosts, DMs, and designers of the server.

There are ample opportunities for battle in Annakolia, so if you want to solo and fight, feel free to do so. Be forewarned however the server is balanced to encourage role-play. Soloing in Hell is not recommended. Some Definitions Powergaming: Gaming with an emphasis on developing powerful characters to the exclusion of character development, motivation, and personality. Pking: Repeated killing of a player character.
Griefing: Repeated threats, bullying, and attacks of a character with the intent to torment a player.

Muling: A single player transferring items from one of their own characters to another of their characters.
Twinking: This refers to higher-level characters giving lower-level characters gifts that are beyond the lower-level character’s realm of experience. This tends to unbalance game play.
In-character (IC): Dialogue, actions, or reactions that are within a game character’s personality, skills, knowledge, and worldview.
Out-of-character (OOC or ooc): Dialogue, actions, or reactions that are not within a game character’s personality, skills, knowledge, or worldview.
Notice: DMs are empowered to take whatever action is necessary to curtail rule infractions, including, but not limited to the following:
Stripping all gear and inventory
Reducing levels
Banning from server

Server Rules
1. Although there are areas for powerful characters, powergaming is not consistent with philosophy of this role-playing server. Powergaming is not acceptable.
2. Pking and/or Griefing are prohibited.
3. Muling and/or Twinking are not allowed. This is not to say a character cannot give a gift to another player’s character. There must be a good IC reason for the gift, and the gift should be of an appropriate level for the recipient. If you’re not sure, consult a DM.
4. Bad-mouthing or arguing with a DM is unacceptable. Annakolia’s DMs are open to suggestions and discussion at the appropriate time.
5. Special character types (brownies, goblins, wemics, etc.) are subject to DM approval via pre-application. Vampires player characters are not allowed in Annakolia.
6. No hostile actions against NPC’s without a DM in attendance as this will cause faction problems for your character and any other party members. There are some areas where hunting is allowed. When in doubt err on the side of caution or ask a DM.
7. To protect our younger players, cybersex or explicit sexual behavior is prohibited on Annakolia. This does not preclude characters having relationships or getting married. Public displays of affection are acceptable, however any sexual activity that most people would customarily practice in private is considered to be behind closed doors and not to actually be role-played. Just for the record, Neverwinter Nights is
sold with ESRB Teen rating, as such Annakolia falls under the guidelines of that rating. ESRB definition of Teen: Titles rated T – Teen have content that may be suitable for persons ages 13 and older. May contain violent content, mild or strong language, and/or suggestive themes. ESRB
