Born into nobility, your adventurous spirit eventually leads you to the arenas of Waycross, an unlikely place for a Lady of the realm. Fame and fortune await in the midst of danger and treachery. Your success in the arena will soon be noticed by a mysterious, secret organization that has need of your talents, but your decision to assist takes you down dark paths.
WARNING: This module contains explicit sexual content. There are times when sexual encounters are played out and animated to their full extent, however, the player has the option to opt out of those situations based on decisions they make in the game. The module also contains full nudity and sexy, fantasy armor. If any of the above offends you then do not play this. This module is for adults only. Do not download or play this unless you are over the age of 18.
FEATURES:
- Custom and unique scripting, particularly in regards to arena contests featuring a no-kill system
- Your win-loss arena stats are recorded by the in-module statistician
- Extensive use of CEP creatures and content
- Nearly 90,000 words of dialogue
- Several possible ending romances
- Fully animated intimate encounters (Warning! Very little is left to the imagination.)
- Custom armor and clothing, some from the community and some of my own design
- You can play as Sierra Westhaven (found on the download page) or you can create your own character.
- Over ten months went into the development of this project.

See the Gladiatrix_Readme.txt file for installation, gameplay requirements and tips to enhance your playing experience. I've also included a Troubleshooting section on how to deal with problems such as areas not loading properly. I also included a link below to the Critical Rebuild, which I think will fix most of those strange problems.
**SOME IMPORTANT PIECES OF ADVICE**
- Never escape out of a conversation
- Save often. Just don't save in the middle of a conversation
- Don't speed quickly through conversations. You could cause an important script to not trigger leaving you stuck in your area
- A fighter type build with a focus on strength is highly recommended. There are a lot of solo arena contests and you will need to build a character that can perform well in those. Two feats I highly recommend by level 4 is Weapon Focus and Weapon Specialization.
These are the weapons that will be available to select from in the upper arenas:
Longsword, Greatsword, Bastard Sword, Katana, dual-wield short swords, 2-bladed sword
I hope you enjoy the adventure!
Don't forget to play Gladiatrix II - In the Shadows of Darkness and Gladiatrix III - The Hand of Destiny when you complete Gladiatrix.

Couple of points there are script issues, not sure what you can do about them, but specificly when you fight the red dragon at the scourge base in no 2 the scripts fail often, I had to reload about 6 or 7 times to make it work properly, when you get overpowered in the male Gladiator baths, since it doesn't actually make any checks the Str etc checks are irrelevent it should just be a cut scene(this is somewhat irritating when you have a charater with Str 19) I understand the story logic but the conversation serves no purpose.
Also you have this fancy house and you specificly ask if Tessa can stay with you but she never does and the whole time your in Waycross nothing happens to advance your romance with her it seem like a bit of a waste.
Overall 9.75 except that I feel like the charater should be equiped with boots of speed by default because of all the walking but that is a minor point
Niccceeee.....
Adding III now - assuming I haven't missed that too in the new vault. :p
Just played through all 3 Gladiatrix modules. I really enjoyed them however, the ending wasn't quite the ending I had hoped for.
I'm really enjoying this mod so far! I've run into an issue, though-- spoilers ahead, for those who haven't played!
I have the quest to eliminate Renshaw, but whenever I enter his room, he's not in there. I've tried reloading multiple times, and when I turn on debug mode I can see the area where I would trigger the conversation, but no matter what I try, I can't cause the event to trigger. There seems to be an area outside his room where an event is also supposed to happen, but the same issue occurs-- no matter how many times I walk into the highlighted area, nothing happens.
Ideally, I'd like to find a way to get the NPC to spawn, but if that fails, is there some sort of console command to get the quest to finish?
*Minor Spoiler*
I did some testing and discovered you have to do something VERY counterintuitive to have everything work correctly.
You have to talk to the innkeeper. Then go upstairs and let Tessa unlock the door for you and keep a lookout, leaving your partyfor the time being.
Everytime I go into the room alone, Conner is there sleeping on the floor as intended and the dialogue goesoff without a hitch.
Hi, I just recently redownload the mod and attempting to play it once more, but this time, I kept getting an error when loading into a new area. I checked the log file, and this is what came out:
1st Instance is when I try to enter the apothecary's basement to take care of the things in there to retrieve the heirloom:

How do I fix this?
Nice module! I was just wondering (noob here), Is there a way I can use the armors and items here into the Original Campaign? I tried transfering the items by character export but it wont work, it will just appear invisible.
You need to open the module/campaign you want to play in toolset and insert the .hak files in the right order. Still armors.. could become really messed up. Not the ones you had on PC, but the ones in loot and shops I think.
Wow, thanks for replying that quickly good sir. Okay, so the problem is, I cant seem to find or open the campaign modules, it doesnt show in the module viewer when i click OPEN @ the NWN Toolset.
They are in nwm folder, just rename their extensions to .mod and put in modules folder. Wise to make a backup beforehand
Ty so much. Great help! +
Hi,
I recently downloaded Neverwinter, with arc, but i can't play this Gladiatrix mod(i downloaded the CEP too), because i don't know really how to install all these stuffs. I read the instructions but i'm french, and as i'm not super good in english, maybe i missed something. I tried few things, search on the net how to do it, but nothing, the game is still same. There's no module folder in the game directory(no hak. folder, no erg. folder either...), and when i create one, it doesn't works.
So, if there's a good person to explain me, in easy way, how to do, please help me.
Thanks per advance, and have a good game.
Hav you installed Neverwinter or Neverwinter Nights? 2 different games.
Two different games?! Oh my! I believed i was the same. I have donjons and dragons Neverwinter, by Cryptic, installed via Arc. It's a f2p mmo, with the foundry available at lvl15. It's the good game?
This site is for Neverwinter Nights by Bioware and Neverwinter Nights 2 by Obsidian Entertainment.
FP!
I bougt nvw nights diamond on gog. I installed it, and the gladiatrix mod, but when i try to load it, it says me this mod has been made with an updated version of the game, and to update my game. But i've done it, there's no more update to do, and the mod still doesn't work. What i have to do?
Thanx by advance :)
Run this patch: http://neverwintervault.org/project/nwn1/other/patch/169-critical-rebuil...
Thanks! It works at least!
This game and this mod looks awesome!!!
Found the module interesting, with varied combat and decent story. I found the area design wanting (large empty spaces, unifrom layouts, too few details etc). But definately a worthwhile module (if you can live with the sex-scenes).
This wasted my time from the old vault. I played as a level 40 male as I could until a certain point.
Redoing it correctly, I found the race to be pressure some (used mylittlepony) and some actions to be unethical and made this module depressing.
You were supposed to play as female...
Doesn't matter; pre-describing/pre-warning the description module doesn't change the module itself.
Class specific modules I'm lenient on because there are many classes.
Race specific modules I am less lenient on, will not dock points IF I feel the story of the module is specific to the race.
But with only 2 sexes, sex specific mods are docked on sight. Sexism is a predjudice and if you wrote a college paper with predjudices, you'd be docked points as well.
If you won't vote on this type of module fairly then why give it a vote? You're displaying a bias yourself by taking off points from the start for what amounts to an author's personal choice, and one which they notify you of in advance before downloading the module. The author just wanted to develop the story around a female character instead.
I mean, it's understandable not liking overly sexual content or what have you, but then just avoid that sort of thing since it isn't preferred.
People are entitled to be puritans, to live their lives accordingly, but not to impose their way of life on other people.
The notion that erotica is "sexist" is totalitarian feminism.
Tolerance is a two-way street. If puritans are allowed to troll erotic posts, what is to stop liberals from trolling religious and feminist sites? Pretty soon the internet would degenerate into a Tower of Babel.
Remember, we live in a world where writers like Salman Rushdie are under sentence of death from bigots, so protecting authors from harassment remains a very high priority in my book.
Turkeys, please describe "fair."
Is it fair that some modules are race, class, and gender specific while others are open to everyone?
Is that fair?
My definition of fair, as far as this sort of thing, is not down-voting based on something explicitly stated in the description, and if someone wants to make a class, race, or gender specific module then that's their freedom of choice. You don't have to play it if you don't like it.
Seriously, you're insinuating that authors should change the entire basis for their modules just to satisfy some unspoken rule that modules must be accessible to all characters. They aren't going to and they shouldn't either because that is censorship.
Nobody's saying that you have to like this sort of thing, simply that it is within personal choice to download and then vote based on that content. How would you feel as the author in a situation like this?
This is an act of fiction, not a straw (wo)man for you to set on fire.
Then how are voters supposed to downscore then?
Assuming that you're being genuine with this question:
Was the sexual content well-implemented? Did the module feature good area design? Was the dialogue fleshed out or barebones? Was scripting used to make the module interesting?
That's just examples of different criteria that can be looked at in a vote, and depending on how you feel upvoted/downvoted. If needed, this would probably be better talked about elsewhere. It's starting to clutter up the comments page.
I guess I'm not being clear.
What I'm asking is how is it fair to vote for a module that's specific when you have all these other modules that any character to play in? How is that fair to those mods that offer freedom of character choice?
It's predetermining from the beginning, not at the end after the module is played... different frequencies on the wavelength: one is looking at it from the peak of the wave, the other the trough.
I guess you're not reading.
The authors aren't your personal module-makers, and can choose to restrict their modules in any way that they wish. Be that making it gender-specific, race-specific, or class-specific. It's fair because you have something called freewill and can choose what you want to play, as well as what you vote on; be that voting on the module itself or the content contained within.
If a module places you in a specific role, whether it's a pre-generated character or by other design, then that's the choice of the author. You can choose what criteria you base voting a module on, and docking points on a module which clearly labels that it has sexual content/requires a female character is bad form.
If you'd like to discuss the intricacies of voting, then make your own thread. This is not the proper place to discuss this and does not directly pertain to Gladiatrix. Leave the wavelength garbage out of it.
Your a twat,, You cant complain about the mod sexual content when you were CLEARLY warned. You, being a twat, decided to do it anyway and expect to down mark BECAUSE OF THE SEXUAL CONTENT. Get a grip you moron.
It CLEARLY STATES "A WOMAN FIGHTER" Not A Male
It's Clearly a story Made for a Female main.
There is No legal requirement to have ANY other factor in these as they are mods made by private people in their own time that people may and do enjoy.
The ONLY mark downs you can do are based on things withing the game Not because you and to play a bloke and get raped in the mens pool.
It must be based on eg: She is in arena and theres a glitch which made you loose the fight and you had to redo. THAT is a fair mark down.
I didn't enforce the female-only option as a sexist ploy when I designed the modules. The intimate encounters were written so that the male and female participants could be properly defined in the encounters. I would have happily made the main character gender-neutral if I could have properly written the intimate encounters as such. The intimacy would have been really dull and generic if I had to design them gender-neutral. Hopefully, you will judge my module for what it is and not based on something trivial as wanting to play different genders and races.
Rayne,
If you changed the mod to just gender neutral, I wouldn't have downscored you so much.
If my male gnome says female dialogue to another male (gay gnome), I may actually upscore you.
I think you put more work enforcing legal gender by tagging clothes "female only" and sticking in recognitions in NPCs that break the mod when played with a male.
Take this module here: http://neverwintervault.org/project/nwn1/module/3rd-edition-adventure-wa...
The dialogue has your PC saying you're trying to rescue your wife, but playing as a female doesn't break the module. It just means you're playing as a lesbian.
That's what I'm getting at. You can make the NPC lover a man and let the player choose if they want to act as a gay person or not.
And then you have http://neverwintervault.org/project/nwn1/module/harpers-tale-3-selgaunt-... where the NPC changes depending on gender.
Again, those are my thoughts. Perhaps other people would have downscored you if you allowed same sex module.
So if I downscore you, perhaps other voters will upscore you, making my own vote insignificant.
Besides, you already hit Hall of Fame on the old vault and old vault status is transferred over here; my low vote won't change that. You're in the Hall of Fame regardless of my vote score.
Trixter, downscoring for impossibility of "same sex module". Wtf? Oh boy, you have some serious problems with self-esteem. Gender-specific modules are not something bad per se, especially if a fixed gender is necessitated by the plot.
Idiot,, IT's FOR A FEMALE,. IT WONT WORK any other way.
Dont feed the troll Fallyn,, we love you.
This is bullying, pure and simple. Time these comments were removed.
Totally agree, he needs banning and send him the men in white coats.
I enjoyed this trilogy, but it is very linear, more like reading an enjoyable book than a truly interactive experience.
Many areas are too big, but the only real fault, imho, was in part 2 when you can commit evil acts, but then pay money to become good? I abused this system to add a couple of Blackguard levels to my otherwise human fighter/paladin. This made my PC far more capable, especially concerning saving throws, but a failure in rpg terms.
Just for the record, I went 2 Fighter levels at 1 and 2, 2 Paladin levels 3 and 4, a 3rd Fighter level at 5, Paladin at Level 6 and a 4th level of Fighter at level 7. After level 7, I only went Paladin, apart from a couple of levels when I followed a darker path.
This meant I had cleave, exotic weapon proficiency, weapon specialisation in Katana and Divine Might as feats at level 7. While fights were very difficult up to level 5, from level 6 onwards, combat was not a problem.
NWN erotica is anything but, and didn't ruin my enjoyment of this series.
FallynRayne These modules were amazing.. I loved watching your skills improve from Part 1 to Part 2 and again to Part 3.. You really found your footing and made better and better content.
I am not finished Part 3 yet.. but my favorite part so far has to be the beginning for Part 2 where we enter an unexplored city with just tons of buildings and options for exploration.
I would die for more modules from you..
Also I love the female based Erotic RP! :)
10 / 10 all the way!
I remember when she was making them,, eagerly waiting for part 2,, then part 3.. You can see the improvements in each one.. Love the trilogy.. WE WANT MORE :D
Guys, are there any haste items in this module or should I invest in spells myself (like cleric's travel domain?)
Yes you can buy potions off Beta, though you will loose them if you dont store them before arena.
Very decent start of the trilogy (I would grant 8-9/10), quite linear but fascinating. The whole trilogy gets 10/10 as a whole. There are some disadvantages however in this module:
-no items that allow you to run fast (I don't mean boots of speed necessarily, but items that give you dm_mylittlepony/expeditous retreat effect.
- ugly city of Waycross, really, I mean it: it's bloated, lots of empty areas, interiors with empty rooms etc. Bad. Running through it without haste was tiresome. Maybe the players should play cleric and choose "Travel domain" in order to get haste? This may be worth a shot, as the only weapon that gives you permahaste in the whole trilogy is a certain bow your acquire later on.
- bugs:
/1/ dialogue scripts do not trigger (eg. Forest west of Waycross), my character stops for a moment, and then nothing happens, this occurs more often if companions who are supposed to talk are set to be at medium or farther distance (so I had to set all companions to "Stay close"), /2/ when you enter to cavern on west island, and then return on surface dialogue window about you and katani is triggered wtf?? /3/ after i kicked dante's ass on my first try thanks to darkness and darkfire cleric spells, in conversation with Raina I still claim that "I could barely get a hit". /4/ It happened that meeting with Cypher quest did not triger after 2nd fight with dante, /5/ When I made opponent dazed on the arena, I somehow killed her, with no end of the match, which means getting stuck.
