Qeynos
 Qeynos |
| Qeynos One of the two human settlements in Norrath. Built on the far western coast of Antonica, Qeynos is one of the favored settlements for magicians, clerics, and enchanters alike. With ships that sail out frequently to the continent Odus, Qeynos is a prime location for many humans interested in the arcane arts. Here lies one of the beginning cities that characters once began their EverQuest experience in. |
Creatures of Qeynos
| Bats Some of the first creatures that many fight will be bats, skeletons, rats, and other low level creatures. Bats are a constant critter to flit around the entirety of Qeynos and the Qeynos hills. They generally peaceful creatures, unless provoked. These creatures range from level 1 to 4 and characters as high as level 6 can gain experience by killing these. |  |
| Drones Drones are beatle like creatures with hard shells, and nasty clamp claws in their front. These creatures are considered lower level, but be careful. Many have died to these guys. They may be small, but they can definately pack a quick snipping bite when provoked. |  |
| Gnolls Who doesn't love the crazy character, Fippy? The gnoll that screams about taking back his rightful land and charges through the gates of Qeynos only to be killed every time by one or more of the guards. Fippy and his brother, Djerr, roam the estates just outside the Qeynos walls. These are the only mobs who will attack on sight, so if you're not prepared, and you're lower level, run for the gates of the city gates! |  |
| Rats Sewers systems mean rodents, and what other rodent might you find most commonly in cities of humans, no matter what culture, than the common rat? Be sure to equip a large stick when attacking these suckers, for their heads are hard, but they can be killed by one who is willed. Rats will not attack unless provoked. |  |
| Rodent Tiny rodents run ramped through the city proper, and have become such pests that there is even a merchant who will offer you a quest to kill one that has been ill and causing mayham in his warehouse! Collect these guy's ears and sell them to merchants for a nice bit of change, good for lower level characters. |  |
| Skeleton Your standard undead baddie. You'll find Skeletons throughout Norrath and the other lands of Everquest, but none quite so tame as the decaying skeletons in Qeynos. It's not uncommon to find rusty weapons or cloth armors from them. The bone chips that they drop are used in Necromancy and Shadowknight spells to summon pets. |  |
| Snakes These little slithering creatures bite with a venomous sting, literally! If you don't die by the end of the battle, hope that your health is high enough that the poison can run through your system without killing you off. These guys have been known to do odd things in battle, including the mysterious snake kick that nobody has figured out exactly how a snake could have an ability to kick. |  |
