This is Vives Refreshed. To understand what that means you first need to understand what Vives was.

Billed as a "poetic and breathing world" by its creators, the Vives PW was a place for roleplaying and storytelling. Half the experience was in-game, the other half happened on the forum where players and dm's embroidered upon in-game action and spun new yarns. Vives was one of the first persistent worlds, beginning in 2003, and running until early 2010, when Cecil the (sea sick) server died. By this time the original team had gone on to other things, but the memories remained, and a few crazies lingered.

We are so crazy about Vives that we resurrected it six months ago, and have kept the torch lit. And now, we have renewed its look with two recent hall of fame projects, Project Q, and NWNCQ. This is our relaunch of Vives. We call it Vives Refreshed.

We get together for periodic game nights, and in between game nights players romp across the world impromptu on adventures of their own making. Vives comprises 700 areas, every one of which is significant to Vives' story and game play, has a well developed body of lore that you can discover in game, and is well loved by its builders and players. Vives is also a very dangerous world. Adventure with a friend and don't feed the undead.

We use a number of hak packs. We have links to downloads in the Files section below. In additon to these downloads you will need Project Q, and the modular version of NWNCQ. Project Q is awesome. You should download it. Check it out.
Both Project Q, and the NWNCQ modular hak system are listed in our required Hak Paks.

Our new forum where we gather is at lefora forums.
