Faithless: The Making of an NWN2 Module

While idly browsing through the forums today, I discovered that four years ago, someone had posted an NWN1 module called " The Lord of Terror - The Diablo Campaign ". Here's an excerpt from the description of the module. This module is a remake/reimagining of the original Diablo game published by Blizzard Entertainment in 1996, as well as its expansion Hellfire published by Sierra Online in 1997.

Still, with a bounty on the goblinoids that infest the place, an adventurer could do worse than hunt down goblins for five gold pieces per head. Far more sinister things than goblins have started to threaten life at the border, however, so much so that the goblinoids have offered to ally with the Damarans against this new foe....
