If this is a totally inappropriate pimping for this forum, I'll stoically take my spanking like a good boy. I figured with so many excellent writers around here, a link to today's penny arcade might be worthwhile:

Bottom news post.
Good luck to anyone giving it a shot.
I'd like to give it a shot, but I'm not familiar with NWN. It sounds like NWN is a tool to create rp scenarios. Is it the kind of thing where a computerized NPC speaks and then the gamer is presented with 2-4 possible responses, each of which leads to a different course of conversation/action? What is a NWN 'module'? Is it a single conversation, a scene (a bar filled with NPCs for example) or a whole adventure?
Is it even possible to submit without owning NWN? Thanks!

This ad is going around the boards over the last couple days but they posted it on the Wizards boards over a month ago in the jobs section. Fantastic job if you can get it. I'm surprised the position is still open.

NWN = NeverWinter Nights, the award-winning D&D game produced by Bioware. NWN came with a module builder (the Aurora Toolset), in which you could create your own adventure scenarios to play in the computer game. (Many of the classic modules were converted.) A piece of the toolset includes a conversation builder. The NPC doesn't "speak" (unless you tie a sound file to play at that moment, which is something totally different), but does display the text you wrote. "Module" can be anything you want it to be - conversation, scene, adventure or campaign. In this instance, it's a means to display your writing skills.
It does not look like you can download the Toolset separately, so my guess is that "Yes", you need to own NWN.
Edit: And ditto on the "This is still open?"
