Harvest Hunt!

Prizes! Adventure! Rewards!

Join us on Realms of Annakolia for a month-long scavenger hunt.

Dahlia Priestess of St. Marcus, Flora Priestess of Yondalla, and Mistress Trader Rose announced a hunt to celebrate the bounty of the harvest. With the help of Queen Rose's pixies items have been hidden in the countryside around Annakol and the Shire farmlands. Even some merchants are involved.

Hunters will be given a list of things to find. Everyone who completes the hunt will get a prize and reward. With an entire month to search, there's a good chance that anyone who puts his or her mind to it will succeed. It's a sure thing that everyone will have fun.

So put your traveling boots on. Saddle up your horse and get going. The Harvest Hunt is on!

 

What is Realms of Annakolia?

Realms of Annakolia (RoA) offers over 1700 places to explore. Beautiful views, magical glades, snowy mountains and more. You will meet pixies, giants, halflings (hobbits), dwarves and more. Ride a horse, cast a spell, meet other adventurers, and go on a quest. Settle down in your own apartment or join the nomadic Horselords. Realms of Annakolia offers adventurers a world of magic and wonder to explore. Our friendly Game Masters offer campaigns, impromptu and scheduled sessions, as well as character quests.

Realms of Annakolia is based upon the Neverwinter Nights game. Our game features custom monsters, player classes, and many other additions to the basic game. Realms of Annakolia is a different game world than the original Neverwinter Nights world.

Playing on RoA is free. The owners and Game Masters/Dungeon Masters (DMs) make no profit from the game. Our Game Masters (DMs) are volunteers. Any donations go towards running the forum and maintenance of the game server. Donations are voluntary.

New classes add more fun and variety to the game experience – the Pencil & Paper feel being the goal of the server in a multi player environment. Role play is very much a part of the PnP D&D game as is combat – we have both role play and adventure in a very large and rich environment.

With the new developed Sparky Spawning system, use of D&D tables are now being implemented in areas – this creates a very different game environment. With a complex table rolling the encounters every time a player enters an unoccupied area, the placement and type of creatures are so varied that one cannot learn where a trigger to spawn is located, and know what to expect – it is always different.

Annakolia is now about 1,600 areas in size and expanding – new and exciting areas are being constructed and old ones being remade, updated and improved daily.

Annakolia history is deep and rich with many facets – the political structure is interesting and in conflict with wars and strife.
