I will try to cover all the bases, please don't think I am being condesending. I just don't know how familiar you are with all this. So please bear with me.
None of these use Hak Packs. If you do want to use a hak pack just unzip the file into the "c/Neverwinter Nights/nwn/hak" folder or cut and paste it from the unzip location. Generally they only work with the module they were designed for or one that uses the same hak.

Penultima series 1 you start with a 1st level character. You can use a higher level character if you like, I think I used a 3rd level fighter/2nd level Thief. In Penultima Re-Rolled you should use a character that you have used to complete the first campaign, though you don't have to. Preferrably with the stuff you got from that first campaign still in their inventory. Just Save the character from any game with a character you would want to use. To do that you just select "Save Character" on the Options screen. Then just download and unzip the files for the new modules into your "c/Neverwinter Nights/nwn/modules" folder and then start the game and choose "New", "Other Module", select the module and hit "Load", then "Select Premade Character" and "Play".

These are the 1st series modules to download. In order.

Penultima City
Pest Control
Hazard Pay
Dewey's Decimal
Clucking Hostile
Home Sweet Home

These modules are very toungue in cheek and have loads of smart alec answers to choose from. They make fun of all sorts of things. I really enjoyed them.
In Penultima city you can level up a 1st level character to 4th at the House of Payne. Go to the Guild of Middlemen and launch any of the other modules from there. Very niffty. You can also purchase things you'll need (Grandma Skullsplitter has some niffty stuff) and complete a couple of side quests.
Not to metion the Dragon in the Pit. Make sure you speak to the Plot Fairy.

For Penultima Re-Rolled there are only three right now.
PR0: Penultima City Redux
PR01: Party Crashers
PR02: Below the Root

I have just started Party Crashers, so I can't say too much good or bad about them. But Stephan Gnagey did a great job with the first series so I expect about the same with this one.

Lone Wolf
Chapter 1: Test of the Sun.
Chapter 2: Mysteries of the Night.

These require you to use one of the pregenerated characters from the list the creator of the module provides. You Start at 1st level.

The is also the "Legend of the Faded Moon" if you like Monks. Start a first level monk and go from there.

You could also download and play Chewies mod "Dark Days The Begining beta v0.6"
I enjoyed it and he would like the feedback I think.

If I haven't answered something or if you were asking about something else completely and I missed the boat let me know.
