What are the Evil races waiting 4?

<div></div><div>ok so... i kno Norrath isn't calm enough for races to go out and start to rebuild their cities and i kno Antonia is wanting to do that but what about the evil races. The iksar was all tough and i think they shouldnt even be in Freeport now. They complain about their neighbors and the fact they live in a human city. And i kno the Erudites and the Kerrans arent likeing their new home fo sho. The ratongas must get tired of every1 blaming them about the "disease". The gnomes are being blamed also about this disease the ratongas are spreading. And i am sure the Trolls are getting [Removed for Content] off at the Ogres for calling them weaklings for losing their city to frogs. So we kno that the evil races arent having the best life in freeport but they had it their way in the homecities. I kno they are smart enough not to leave the safe area of Freeport yet but they are all might n brutes i am sure they can handle it. Why dont they leave the city and rebuild their old cities. cept for the trolls who lost their city to puny little frogloks... ha</div><div> </div><div> </div><div> </div><div>New Char.</div><div><div><strong><font color="#d7a04e">Othi</font></strong> <font color="#d7a04e">(Antonia Bayle)</font></div><div><span class="race">Ratonga</span><span class="separator"><font color="#d7a04e">|</font></span><span class="char_class">Brigand</span><span class="separator"><font color="#d7a04e">|</font></span><span class="level">5</span></div><div> </div><div>DOWN WITH KERRANS! them with their filthy lies.</div></div>

[TorturedOne21]

<div></div>I think Freeport's continued survivability is a testament to the fiery charisma of Lucan D'Lere. He is a master orator, and it is well within his capabilities to whip up a crowd into a furor. Perhaps it is this reason alone why one of the sneakier races of Freeport (Dark Elves or Ratonga) haven't made a move to remove him; they understand that the city would splinter and thus become easy pickings for the numerous Orc clans that are beating their heads against Freeport's walls, as well as the city of Qeynos, who could move into the exposed city and do a little "cleaning" (dang it was coming up with a word that didnt have genocidal connotations attached to it.)

Well in the history of EQ all the other "evil" races where somewhat sociable with eachother.. living together etc..  Except Iksar.  They never liked anyone and IMO probably would have killed all the softskins or just left Freeport by now.<div></div>

[MarrGardian]

<div>those dark elves think they are the dominate race... if so they woulda been rebuilding neriak n riding the undead that roam the place there now and start an army of their own... would be nice since i kno if the dark elves are safe there then us ratongas can go ban to where we belong. Gnomes are great but are alwayz stressin.</div>

[vikingthug]

Yes, yes, this is all well and good, But what about the expansion where the Vah Shir get reintroduced in all theyre feline Glory!  Perhaps they are still here, in the floating Citadel, acting as elite shock troops for the Overlord Himself!  I know, Im reaching here, but I gotta keep my Vah Shir hopes and dreams alive.<div></div>

Iksars havent been able to find Cabilis? Pfft.  We dont even need a boat to find it, just remove the invisible zone walls.  I'll hop in the ocean, and SWIM to Cabilis and if I have to take the water out of cabilis back to Lake of Ill Omen bucket by bucket.  If push comes to shove, we can always just rebuild Cabilis like we did after Sebilis was destroyed by Trakanon and his band of leather luggage.  After playing an Iksar since the first day Ruins of Kunark came out in EQ1, I have become quite intimate with the knowledge about the Iksar lore and I can firmly say that the Iksars would rather DIE than live with softskins, the same softskins that didnt help us when we were slaves to the Shizzar. The same softskins that didnt help us when Trakanon attacked us.  The same softskins that didnt even bother looking for us after the shattering! They just happened upon us by some freak occurance and selfishly Lucan thought how to twist our strength to his advantage! No more!  Give us back Cabilis or we will take Freeport by FORCE and rename it Cabilis! Infact I think thats a good idea, it would look much better with some canals. Send the Erudites to go live in Feerot because its about as dense a jungle that they are used to.  Send the steroid taking barbarians to Everfrost to work out their differences with Lady Vox.  Send the Darkelves back to Fallen Gate.  Send the ratonga back to the sewers where they belong or in our Iksar's mouths!  Send the trolls and Ogres to live in Wailing Caves cause thats where they belong, in a deep dark cave never to see the light of day again! Last but not least send the humans to us! We could use some slaves like we had with the Sarnak.Now that the guards are attackable, siezing freeport is within our grasp fellow Iksar!! I say we rise up and take what is rightfully ours, leadership, respect, domination!!!</SOAPBOX><div></div>

<div>ok wait there. the eurdites to feerrott what makes u sure that odus is all under water. i have a 25 conjuror eurdite in Oasis and i hear a lot from my friends in my last guild and they been saying how do we kno Eurdin isnt all ruins, that it aint there. so far we cant venture to Faydark Odus Kunark or Velious maybe there are parts of the island afloat.

I never thought I'd agree with a talking disease carrying rat but nevertheless I have to agree. Show us these busted up cities, let us, the players, reclaim our rightful cities and reuild if necessary.  If we can make wizard spires that havent worked according to lore in over hundreds of years in a matter of a few days, I'm pretty frigen sure we can rebuild our cities in equal or lesser time.Now are you going to tell the pirates to give us transportation to the last known locations of our cities or are we going to have to take over the boat by force, throw the crew overboard with boulders tied to their ankles, sail to our homes ourselves, blow up the boat and spit on the ashes? Personally I'm all for the latter, I'm a bit bored.At the VERY least make it all into one big expansion, where several races rediscover their cities as the ocean recedes or something, anything. Or maybe the gods come back and they raise the cities from the water.  The O-N-L-Y thing that keeps me playing EQ2 is the hope that one day I will be able to walk along the paths of Cabilis once again and I promise if that day came, you'ld have a life time customer because then my game experience would be truely complete and I could enjoy EQ2 that much more!You have the story writers and the artists and the modelers, get thy butt in gear and crank it out, we don't care how.<div></div>

Hey a iksar agreed with me. normally they get a hungry look on their face and hey wait what... Aliquo... he called me a diseased rat. look at your kind. You iksar are 'pose to be great swimmers why dont u leave Freeport to see what is left of Kunark and rebuild your city and empire... oh wait your to lazy to.

Unlike the Ratonga we didn't need Lucan's help to defeat the rallosian army! Our god Cazic-Thule's appointed avatar, the green mist, saved us! We stood our ground while you hid behind the nearest box of Velveeta cheese.   As far as swimming to Kunark we would but some how someone more powerful than the gods themselves *cough* developers *cough* *cough* put in invisible zone walls preventing us from searching on our own. In reguards to taking orders from a human, we take orders from NO ONE!  You little gerbil with an identity crisis, I'm gonig to drag you down into the sewer then bite your head off.  You were born in the sewer, I'll personally see to it you die in one.  Just watch out for that mousetrap outside your apartment, oh, right, forgot.. Ratonga are BLIND.  When we take over Freeport or make our move to retake Cabilis, I promise you'll be the first to go. Then we'll serve up your diseased bodies to Lucan as a disguised dinner and he'll get the black plague and die as well! Hmmm how delecioussssly evil!<div></div>

The rate that human is going every race in the city will rip him limbs to limbs. oks wes are doing ours part in rebuilding the Ratongas ways of life but all yous iksar do is complain about the human overlord, yous living with barbarians and the stinch of the human city.</p><p>Like i said you iksar are pathetic... almost as pathetic as the trolls, but yous are close.</p><div>Othi</div><div>10 Ratonga, AB</div><div>Birgand</div><div> </div><div>Xicica</div><div>25 Eurdite, Oasis</div><div>Conjuror</div>

[Raider Hat]

Fine fine, so the lizards and rats want to go at it, thats all well and good but lets back to the freaking subject shall we? The issue is one home city have been found, River Vale. Yet despite the hundreds of adventurers slaughtering the forces of evil on a daily basis the Halfings still haven't been able to reclaim their homeland, and until they do no one else should either.<div></div>

[Kondul]

Back on Topic.I think the major reason the evil races haven't moved on to try and re build their cities or build anew is because, while Antonia is actually trying to help rebuild the Norrath of old, Lucan is probably doing everything in his power to keep those "under his protection" from leaving. They go he's left with the humans and Boomba (cause Freeport will always have Boomba). He'd lose control over all those that left, and Lucan isn't someone to allow another being to slip out of his grasp without a fight.And overall, he's probably not having that hard a time of it. Those members of the other races that join the Militia or the Lucanic Knights get to be in positions of power, and know that without Lucan's backing they'd be one more target. Unless you are nigh-immortal (as Lucan has become through lich-hood) the best place to be isn't on top of the heap, it's one below the top of the heap, that way you're not the main target. I'm sure that, if given the opportunity, the various evil races would break away from Freeport and head out on their own.That's actually an interesting angle for RP. Someone betraying to Qeynos not because they've seen the light, but because they know that the only way to reclaim their races lost glory lies in not being permanently crushed under Lucan's bootheel.

<div>Hahahaha yous thinks ratongas are here to seek protection when it was us who helps yous after the shattering.....Why do we do this....??</div><div> </div><div>There is more to our sudden aparition on the surface than yous furrless ones would think....</div><div> </div><div>Soon....Verry soon</div><div> </div><div> </div>

[MarrGardian]

<div></div>You sees. I dont understand why wes have to waits. Theres nothing that human can do to stops us from leaveing. Now that i believes that Faydark is still heres soon the Dwarves, Gnomes, most of the Elves will be gone from Qeynos trying to returns to theirs homelands. maybes this  is what the human had in minds, waiting for the rights opertunaty to attack Qeynos. I am done waitings wes should all just leaves i mean the militia and the human himself cant stops us from rebeling. plus them trolls are stinking up the human city. The iksar could of left, the ogre trolls barbarians. i just dont kno what are they waiting fors. yea i hope an expansion pack comes out to wheres the other fours island are reachable.

Were it not for Lucan your kind would rival the Lizardmen of thule in primitivism, assuming the shattering didn't finish what the Shissar should have started!

Just for that I'm going to kill Lucan over.. and over.. and over.. and over.. and over.. and over.. and over.. and over again just like I did in EQ1 as soon as he's .."human" enough to show himself in public.  Then I'm going to take the boot of his foot that you so fondly love to lick and staple gun it to your tounge.  It was Lucan's ships that found us at sea, we weren't at the walls banging trying to get in, and shortly there after Lucan tried.. and failed I might add, to enslave us.  When I get done with Lucan I'm going to rip off his head and put it on a pike outside the newly found walls of Cabilis! Also let us not forget, in EQ1, Lucan's militia and he himself were held at bay and in check by the Knights of Truth in N. Freeport.  Lucan had East and West Freeport and almost twice the size of a militia than the Knights had and they STILL kept him from complete control.  PALADINS! The saddest tanks in the game for EQ1!  Then he backstabbed them after he came on hand and knee begging for help, and after they did, they got the axe.  Sure they were stupid, they were paladins, but unlike Lucan, and even though you dont deserve it, I'll atleast let you see it coming right before your tounge is ripped out through your... oh how do you retched humans say.. ah yes, through your reproductive organs along with your ovaries.Fear the Faceless and the Green Mist, and no, not the green mist that comes out of Lucan's mouth from being so full of .....(role play limit reached, not going to finish that sentence lol)<div></div>

[RiverAssassin]

There's probably tension inside of Freeport between the other races as well. Notice that in the Scale Yard the Barbarians and Iksar don't get along at all? There's even quests to turn Barbarians on each other to cause some problems for the "soft skins". The Dark Elves just hate everyone in general, it seems. The Ratonga... I never know what they're thinking about, probably just waiting for a good opportunity to get some treasure when everyones fighting everyone else in Freeport. The Trolls are just disasters with axes waiting to happen. The Ogres will probably ally with the orcs again and try to attack Freeport (ha...). And humans? That's the embodiment of corruption and foul play. They'll start an uproar just to cause problems......and that's when Lucan smites everyone. The End.

<div>i am not trying to say that. i am not assuming that all the evil race wants to take over the world. i am trying to figure out why they aint going back to try to find their or rebuild their cities. The iksar race hate living in a human city. they are [Removed for Content] enought that other races are now starting to look down at them and not up. Trolls have nowhere else to go. them living with the dark elves didnt work unlike the ogres they had the mind to leave them. the ogres are mindless ne wayz. the half elves have nowhere to call their own so i understand why the ogres and half elves are there. the gnomes dont need to live there sure they met a race they can understand and i am sure they might even let the ratongas live with them in their city. there is enough proof that the cities on Faydwer werent completly deystroied. ok the races kno what the overlord wants and i for one think they want nothing to do with it so  i just want to kno why they are still there under the human laws. i am not assumeing that they want to take control of the world.</div><div> </div><div>P.S. i am never going to talk like this again... back to roleplaying debate about this topic for me.</div>

[vikingthug]

Look at it this way, in Freeport, Lucan himself wants ultimate power...What Lucan wants, he gets.  You cant live in Freeport and thumb your nose at the Overlord.  You do that and the next sound you hear will be the trode of metal clad feet marching down your cobblestone street.  Most of the races living in Freeport arent evil.  People need to get that notion out of theyre heads right off the bat.  The people living there are survivors.  Sure, some are wraped a little to tight around the axel, but so are some of the folk in Qyenoes.  Face it, as a faction we are judged by our Leadership, and unfortunatly for us, our leader just happends to be an evil Lich...(Not sure if thats redundent havent seen very many good liches.)     Freeport is basically a mini empire with the Overlord as the Emperor.  Like they say, his word is law.  Now, if He descided to go to war full scale, he would most likely do it in stages.         Stage one. Planning.  Descide what he wants to do and when.    Stage two. Preperation. Begging making seige engines, training more troops, dispatching long range recon. Stockpiling food, and all the other neccesseties an army on the move requires.  Remember, he is a Lich, he lives a long time and doesnt have to rush.    Stage three.  Move out!  Begin a slow measured campaign, or a Blitzkrieg style campaign.  Either way will work.  He can go slow and steady, taking over new lands, and encorperating those he conquers into his society.(It worked very well for the Romans.) Or he can blitz and stun the enemy into submission through brute force..As long as he doesnt go all wack job and extend himself or try to fight a war on several fronts its feasable.    Bottom line, people automatically assume the Freeport is Evil and Qyenos is Good.  When basically it boils down to it, Freeport is a Totalitarian society while Qyenos is a Quasi Democracy.    Either way it wont matter when  G.O.B. takes its battle to the streets and wham!  Its all over but the crying.. Then the Trolls, rats, and Iksar will have nothing else left to do but find new homes, since they wont be welcomed in FP!<div></div>

Hideous excuses for sentients! Barbarians can do all the manual labor an Ogre can, and they don't have any of the superiority complex that comes from being the illegitimate love children of Rallos Zek! Even the orcs are capable of building empires, your kind had to beg Lucan for a section of his city!</font></p><p><font size="2">Ratongas? Ugh, the fact that your kind spread the plague is enough cause for me to send you scurrying back to the holes you came from!

It reaffirms my faith in humanity when they think they are so slick, cowtowing and licking Lucans boot, thinking we are playing into their reindeer games! Lucan is all-knowing, you think your sneaking around goes unescaped by his magnificent eye? He is playing your kind with the suble finesse your silky elven bodies could only dream of! Dark Elves are good for only one thing; filling brothels. And while I am on the subject, it has come to my attention that the [Removed for Content] children of elves and humans actually consider themselves a separate race! Bruhahaha, I laugh at their pitiful attempts at individualism. There are no individuals in Freeport, only Lucan! If it were up to me I'd conscript them all in the Militia, and teach them some good old fashioned discipline!</font></p><p><font size="2">Now that I think about it, I love Kerrans too. They make nice pets. Except they can be unruly sometimes because they live in the glorious presence of humans, and they think mimicking rational thought makes them intelligent. Wow, you speak common, now go fetch this stick before I turn you into a rug! Oh how it pains me when I think of how many Kerran I've had to put down over my life due to their restlessness as pets. I think I'll get a Ratonga next time my Kerran pet talks back and gets itself thrown in the executioners square. I've heard trolls make amusing pets, but ugh, how can anyone tolerate their mind-bending stench!?</font></p><p><font size="2">And the Iksar! Let me tell you about those slimy lizards. You'd think the scale yard was Cabilis, the way they parade around. They think because they ruled a pathetic continent filled with weak-willed Sarnak that makes them worthy rulers of the world. Lucan was gracious beyond words to your kind, and now you grumble and scorn! Were it not for Lucan your kind would rival the Lizardmen of thule in primitivism, assuming the shattering didn't finish what the Shissar should have started! At least the lizardmen still <em>have</em> a civilization, with buildings and society to call their own, not to mention a god that actually cares about them enough to grant them a civilization! Thule laughs at your kind now, just like I do. Haha, being a noble is great, you should try it. Oh yeah, you're not a human, guess you should go back to looking for Cabilis now!

[vikingthug]

<div></div>We, the members of G.O.B (the Gnome, Ogre, and Barbarian League) had contemplated using the Iksar as shock troops.  However, after much thought, and a few pints of Halasian lager we have descided they will instead fullfill the role as footwear, belts, and lampshades.

[Kaitar]

<div>Hey hey hey...can we stop with the Iksar hating here? Honestly is this an IC post or are people really that ready to flame everyone?</div><div> </div><div>Now. I'm on an RP server. There are quite a few 'old school' lizzy's there that go around 24/7 talking about Cabilis and we will kill soft-skins and all that stuff. My own Iksar is quite young, and the Shattering happened when they were just 'children' as it were (or whelplings/hatchlings, whichever you prefer.) He's not entirely been raised with that mentality. He spent a few YEARS on the isle helping Lucan's soldiers push back the goblins blah-de-blah (hey, on the Freeport side it seems the goblins have been wiped out finally and now the outpost is dealing with some Qeynosian invaders...so, I'm sticking to my story <img src="/smilies/69934afc394145350659cd7add244ca9.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" /> )</div><div> </div><div>The guy not only has no real beef with 'soft-skins' ...he's married to one. Yeah, how's that for taboo? <img src="/smilies/69934afc394145350659cd7add244ca9.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" /> needless to say quite a few of the Iksar that RP on my server really do not like Dsarisz. So even IF Kunark was found again...he'd be staying in Freeport.</div><div> </div><div>My point being, I would find it very interesting to see what would become of the Iksar that STAYED in their new places rather than going back. I'm sure the vast majority would run home asap, but what about those that were young and not raised in the old ways, or have just seen a new path in life for themselves?</div><div> </div><div>On this note, I hope they do release a Kunark expansion some day.</div>

[vikingthug]

Hey now, we dont hate Iksar...As a matter of fact one of my favorite shields is bound with nice sturdy iksar skin.<div></div>

[Aliq]

And there is no hard feelings towards gnomes either. <span>:smileyvery-happy:</span>  As long as you are around, I will be able to pass on my "Gnome Sandwhich" recipe from my EQ1 days to future generations in EQ2.  We love gnomes cause they proudly give their lives for the cause .. of feeding us.  Nothin like thinly sliced gnome (preferably while they are still alive, just fresher that way) between 2 pieces of bread, or 2 other gnomes can substitute the bread, and mustard! Cant forget the mustard! Ohh yeah, the trick is to eat at the feet first and work your way up the body and chew or bite down slowly as to cause the sandwhich meat ..er.. gnome, to cry tears and thus flavor the sandwhich.  Thats why it gets better with every bite!!!So Viking, if you would be so kind, please let me know where in Freeport you live, and what times you'll be awake.Sincerly,Wolf Gang Iksar<div></div>

<div>-_- Why does it always end up coming back around to 'I love Iksar! they're a great pair of boots!'</div><div> </div><div>*sighs*</div><div> </div><div>......yeah, well, we might make nice shields and boots but we do NOT...taste...like...chicken. LIES!</div>

[MarrGardian]

<div>hey theres, i dont wear iksar boots. i have them at home but never waers themes. i dont hate the iksars and i am not not afraid of themes. sure they eats us but not in freeport, wes safe in the walls. i pretty much lost respect for the iksar. now i sees them as a normal... preson.</div><div> </div><div>Othi, AB</div><div>16 Brigand</div><div>Ratonga</div>

[Kaitar]

<div>Some Iksar don't want to admit all we are is ' normal people' *winks* It's a lot more difficult to be just another person than it is to be someone so blind and bull-headed a rock to the skull couldn't knock sense into them.</div><div> </div><div>And I don't eat Ratonga...or any creature that I could carry on a conversation with. I don't want my food to talk back, as it were.</div><div> </div><div> </div>

[vikingthug]

Ive had several Iksar or as I like to call them "super gekos" try to eat me...However for those of you who are short of stature, this is a full proof way of dealing with those nasty lizards.. First sneak up from behind..The as you run between theyre leggs grab the tail and just keep truckin!  They allways fall over backwards and then its time to update your wardrobe..Can you say Iksar socks?  All joking aside, if they werent soo bloodthirsty and creepy, they would make nice shock troops, but couple that with the fact they taste like chicken, well, tis a recipie for disaster.  However, we did find an excellent use for them.. Introducing the Flaming spiked Iksar Projectile!  Yes, it slices, it dices, it burns and its glows...Simply set one ablaze, strap them to your trusty Mark V catapault and let er rip! My ogre friends prefer to roast them over an open spit, again they do taste like chicken..But I cant bring myself to do it.  If you want double your pleasure, strap a plague infected Ratboy to your flaming Iksar and the real fun begins.<div></div>

<div>Ankle... who said anything bout ankle. i aim somewhere, were it hurts so.... HEY that gives me ideas. us ratonga and gnomes can have trolls and ogers as pet. just threaten to hit them in the only place we can reach and we have thems under controls.</div>

[vikingthug]

<div></div>Trolls yes, Ogres no.  They are an important faction within the grand ranks of G.O.B.  We needed the muslce. Its not easy lifting and strapping a squirming leezard to a rocket.  We have however been entertaining the idea of encorperating certain Ratonga into our fanks thus becomming G.O.R.P.  But we will have to convince the Ogres not to eat you or let the Barbarians sacrifice you....More news at eleven.
