Welcome

Well, Berk, you've really done it now. One way or another you ended you rear up here and here's where you're staying for now. Look, I don't care how ya got here. I don't care that you planned and prepared for years and used powerful magic and powerful favours. I don't care that yer blasted gnome pushed the button again, even after the first push sent your cleric to the-gods-only-know-where. I'm gonna tell ya something, berk, so bar that and listen good. The bashers out here? They don't give a toss how you ended up here either and chances are they're looking to bob you or put you in the dead-book, so you'd best watch your step.

First things first. You wanna survive, berk? Don't go stepping on no toes.. or tentacles or claws, or whatever them bashers got for feet, cause, sure enough, you step on their foot, they're gonna implant it in your ass, hear?

What's this all about?

Gatecrashers is a Neverwinter Nights Persistant World Roleplaying Server, using the D&D Planescape setting. Gatecrashers is intended for serious roleplaying and high adventure in the Outer Planes connecting the worlds of Aber-Toril and Krynn. We are following the Great Wheel cosmology used in the Manual of the Planes and Second Edition Planescape material, not the new half-assed cosmology set out in the 3rd Edition Forgotten Realms Campaign Setting. We also are not planning on using much (if anything) from the default Greyhawk setting.

The Gatecrashers Development team is committed to using only the highest quality and most progressive player-made content for NWN. As such we have large Hak Paks, to provide our builders with the content they need to bring the exotic locales to life. We do not use the Community Expansion Pack. We do not use Bioware's standard item or creature templates, and the options for models and tilesets have been greatly increased over the standard fare that came with the game. In addition to the highest quality player-made content available on the NWN Vault, Gatecrashers also uses a few things unique to our server.

Gatecrashers is a collective of roleplayers, builders, developers and dungeon masters, who seek to simulate the Pen and Paper feel of a high adventure D&D campaign, only our game group meets over the Internet instead of around a coffee table and has a graphical interface to enhance our storytelling and give fuel to our imaginations. Players can shape the future of the campaign and gameworld with their actions, and can also contribute to the gameworld itself by applying to become Builders to add new areas to the Cosmology. And perhaps one day even become a mighty Dungeon Master, able to wrangle the gods themselves and guide adventurers on journeys beyond dreams and the real. Gatecrashers is intended for mid to high level adventuring. Sorry berks, your level 5 character with no magic items would be little more than meat for the grinder in the Outer Planes. Or in the Port of Shadows for that matter.

Gatecrashers is an open RP server. There is no application process for players, though there will be a short application needed for characters with nonstandard races or subraces

For more information on Gatecrashers and its campaign setting, please read the Game World section of the website.
