Exodus: Shadows of the South is a Neverwinter Nights 2 persistent world project set in the Lands of Intrigue and Shining South of the Forgotten Realms. Exodus' game play is based on the D&D v.3.5 ruleset and is strongly role-play oriented. Play is designed for parties of 3-6 Player-Characters who interact in-character, and are led by a Dungeon Master in regularly scheduled campaign sessions. Exodus plans to offer a highly immersive articulation of the settings of Amn, Tethyr, and other southern Faerunian regional settings in a 'book' and 'chapters' model of epic story development.
