Good day,
Let me first say that I have only been aquainted with the server for a few days - having returned to NWN1 after being sorely disappointed with NWN2 (for some reason I missed the boat on PWs the first time around with the game - I was too busy building I think).
At any rate - I want to say how impressed I am with both the atmosphere and the setting on the server. This really is one of the best I have seen and I have looked at quite a few over the last few weeks. Well done players and GMs.
I have one quick question, born of my own ignorance. Quite simply - is there any way to change a character's bio once in game? I have since creation flushed out my backstory and wanted to add some general notes - if possible.
Thank you for your time,
Moranthus

Yourself personally, your only option is to remake the character with a different name (which, if you're level 2, is pretty much the best option) but there's a program called 'leto' which can allow the DM's to change your bio if there's something radical which needs adjusting, or alterations which are required on a characters physical features.
You'd have to be really nice and persuasive in an e-mail or whatever though, because it's a right hassle to do!
And er, welcome!

Changing your description is something I always hoped for in a patch to nwn along the way but it never came in, leto seems to be the only way.

It takes an admin going through the database and changing it (while the player isn't logged). What they did on another PW is start a thread for "Character descriptions change", and after enough replies, one database admin was kind enough to take her time to modify/add descriptions according to the posts. If the database admin/s here don't mind doing this for the players who either botched their descriptions or simply need a drastic description change, that'd be a great deal.

A "different name" could be as simple as adding an extra space between first and last names, or tacking a period to the surname. that way, you get to keep all the allies your PC has made since creation the first time. (And rebuilding wealth at the level 2 and 3 levels is usually easy-peasy.)
Also, welcome to the Underdark.
