Trakanon = Deathtoll Tarinax??

[neon_24]

<DIV>is that possible if the lore from </DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV><A href="http://eqiiforums.station.sony.com/eq2/board/message?board.id=lore&message.id=2363&query.id=178474#M2363" target=_blank>http://eqiiforums.station.sony.com/eq2/board/message?board.id=lore&message.id=2363&query.id=178474#M2363</A></DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>is correct could Tarinax be the undead Trakanon. and if so would that imply that KoS is the shatterd Kunark (just gettin into the Iksar lore so pardon any idiocy) </DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>and also Fitzpizzle is a mob in DT i could have swore i saw a refrence to him in that thread linked above i cannot find it agin though and do not have allot of time at work to dig it up.</DIV>

[Cusashorn]

<DIV>It's possible, but I don't think so. Trakanon never cared to follow any dragon factions in EQlive. He claimed Sebilis as his own domain and everything in the surrounding area under his rule. He didn't care about the Ring of Scale or Claws of Veeshan, and even though he laughed and said that dragonkind would final get what they had comming when Kerafyrm woke up, he doesn't seem like the type who would follow Kerafyrm for any reason. He has all he wants.</DIV>

[Tamat]

I really don't think they are the same dragon. I thought it to be a possibility in beta but now I'm pretty sure this is not the case. I know this isn't a smoking gun but I can't see the skeletal structure of Taranix matching Trakanon. Furthermore like was already said, Trakanon didn't care about the different dragon factions. In KoS Taranix is the dragon that united Sont, Gore, Harla and Vyemm. Maybe Vhalan has more to say about this but like all things, it will only happen when the Gods are ready to reveal it to us. <div></div>

[neon_24]

<DIV>is there any lore on Tarinax that i am missing that links him to the Ring of Scale? </DIV>

[Sinect]

<DIV>I think someone said that Tarinax was known by Naggy and Vox, I could be mistaken</DIV>

OOC: According to my understanding, Trakanon was already undead to begin with <img src="/smilies/8a80c6485cd926be453217d59a84a888.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" /> His bones were showing for petes sake! :p I'll see if I can dig up something on this... <div></div>

Wasnt there an Undead Dragon in EQ1 in the Western Wastes which guarded <STRONG><FONT face=Verdana size=2>The Dragon Necropolis an ancient burial ground for Velious dragons which all The Awakened are.  So DeathTolll = Dragon Necropolis ?</FONT></STRONG>

[Tamat]

Deathtoll is a Dragon Necropolis, just not the same one from Velious. I believe the dragon that guarded DN in EQ was <a href="http://eqbeastiary.allakhazam.com/search.shtml?id=20907" target=_blank>Klandicar</a>. <div></div>

[Jindrack]

<DIV>No, Tarinax is not Trakanon, he is his own entity with his own history.  Also, Trakanon has a huge history with the Ring of Scale, he was even a founding member of that faction and hotly clashed with the leader, Jaled Dar, over differing opinions regarding the rising Sebilisan Empire.</DIV>

<P>I find it interesting that in Deathtoll "Primal Velium weapons" drop they even have the proc of Velium Shards so to discount that Deathtoll is the Dragon Necropolis from Velious would be a rash assumption I would presume. I am not sure if we know for sure if it is dragon necropolis or not. We know that Keraphym had a lot of interest in the place and that he kept his treasures there perhaps he just stored the velium weapons there because they are one of his treasures who knows.</P> <P> </P>

[Vhalen]

<P>Tarinax is his own person. His history is little known. Most likely you would not have access to his history, but you should knwo a bit about what has passed. I can tell you only this, for now:</P> <P>Tarinax existed in the early days of the Age of Scale.  He was the first dragon named as handler of the drakota, a post most recently held by Darathar.  As handler his duties were to apprehend and punish renegade dragons. To serve his duties The Destroyer had the demi-dragons known as the drakota. Employing the drakota forces to execute the harshest punishments upon their fellow dragons circumvented some of Veeshan's laws. Tarinax served as the master of the drakota and executer of punishment among dragonkind during the seizure and incarceration of the _____. The crime ____ committed against the laws of Veeshan were so severe that Tarinax and the drakota army were charged with overseeing the imprisonment of the lawbreakers. Although the crime was great, the criminals could not be destroyed. The reasons were clear to the dragon elders. So, for decades the dragon warden watched over the two criminals all the while keeping the lesser races of Norrath from interfering with the incarceration. But something happened during this final duty of Tarinax. No Norrathian can be sure what happened, but it is rumored that an alliance was formed between the warden and his prisoners. Tales began to spread, tales of drakota overseeing the construction of drakota citadels all throughout what was then known as Tunaria. A great plot was in motion that might see a new dragon led empire rise, an empire like none ever seen. This new empire would be led by dragonkind, but comprised of many lesser hordes of evil. This new empire was secretly being built beneath the land of Tunaria, veiled from the eyes of the dragon elders. Tarinax would oversee the construction of this new evil empire until the day he could release the criminals he was charged to oversee. Together the three would rule over this new empire. But the rise of this new evil dragon-led empire would be thwarted by the meddling of the lesser races. The drakota citadels under construction were threatening the villages they rest near. The horde forces were not as clandestine as hoped. The temptation of pillaging nearby villages was too great. A call for heroes was sent into Tunaria, a call from various villages far apart, but with a common threat. This call would be answered and soon every drakota citadel would find itself under attack before it could be properly defended. The interference of the lessers brought the unwanted attention of the dragons elders upon Tunaria. The dragons learned of the betrayal and flew to Tunaria to stop the plot of Tarinax and his prisoners. Before Tarinax could be captured by his masters, he would be slain by a mortal using _____ called _____. This was no doubt a better ending to his life. The Claws of Veeshan would not have destroyed him, but whatever punishment they would have executed would have been far worse than death. Tarinax's soul ____ upon his death.  Although the whereabouts of his soul are unknown, his body now resides in Deathtoll, most likely placed there by ____, to be used as ____.</P>

Be nice if they created a quest-line out of that. I mean, it is Tarniax's soul, sounds kinda important. As for the text on the quest, it's obviously a ploy to make it seem like you're getting an orc's soul, when in reality you're recovering the soul of a dragon.But who is Fandrak, and what is he going to do with the soul. Maybe it'll have something to do with the next adventure pack, but we won't know till they release them.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but wasn't the Soulfire originally in the hands of the Avatar of War?  From what I heard, Lucan seized the Soulfire after the Avatar of Tranquility had killed the Avatar of War.  It seems unlikely that the Avatar of War would have killed Tarinax, but I don't know how the sword came into War's hands or what its EQ1 backstory is--anyone mind filling me in?

[Tarkin-Wretch]

<DIV>ok so tarinax was the first handler of the drakota.  Darathar was the handler afterwards.  wasnt darathar the handler who sent the drakota after vox killing her?  he also sent them after nagafen before he could reach his lair and they battled in lavastorm.  heres where it gets interesting.  i dont recall who it was from sony that remarked on this in a previous thread i read recently but he did not describe the battle entirely as i have come to understand it.  najena came to nagafen's aid during that battle which solidified their alliance.  i use the term alliance loosely here folks.  a bit off topic but interesting.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>i dont think it was soulfire.  the "a sword" called "something" sounds more right than using "weapon" called "person's name".  if he intended for a person's name he would have used the word named so and so instead of called so and so.  UNLESS its not a person's name but rather a person's title.  so how about, a mortal using Wyrmslayer called The Champion of Neriak.  im going to assume the Avatar of War is not a mortal.  if he was mortal then it could very well be a mortal using Soulfire called The Avatar of War....but i dont think so.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>anyone shed some light on Wyrmslayer's past?  someone who may have wielded it that was significant.  even though soulfire fits better with the soul absorbing thing, that doesnt explain how his soul got in OoLS.  and wyrmslayer just sounds so right when you consider a mortal used it to slay a dragon.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>last part is prob, most likely placed there by the ring of scale, to be used as a guardian.  </DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>any thoughts?</DIV> <DIV> </DIV>

There was a 1HS quest weapon in EQ1 called <a href="http://everquest.allakhazam.com/db/item.html?item=355" target=_blank>Wurmslayer</a>.  The players had to kill two wurms (both in Burning Woods) and then did either a hand in to/or killed a named gargoyle guard in the Overthere.Wurms in EQ1 were draconic in nature, but weren't considered true dragons. They looked like a dragon except they lacked wings and were far less powerful.  There were wurm mob variations in the dragon centric zones Skyshrine, Temple of Veeshan, and Skyfire Mountains to name a few.I don't know if the EQ1 Wurmslayer is related to the EQ2 varient, but they do sound similar in name.<div></div>

<P>So far i have gathered that Tarinax is this big badass dragon that used the Drakota to do his bidding and to punish other dragons like Naggy and Vox under Veeshans laws (Fire and ice dont mix or u get supermegaultra dragon of doom) so he had them locked up in LS and Permafrost.</P> <P>Tarinax was slain by Kane Bayle? Lucan D'lere? Antonius Bayle was a guy right? with soulfire in KoS and his soul was sent to the Obelisk and his body remains in KoS where it wanders around and kills everything.. i bet he did somthing bad before he was slain so he knew it was coming, so he told one of his most powerful Drakota suckups to throw on an orc disguise and get one of us honest adventurers to retrieve his soul from the obelisk so he could get less "Dead" and continue to tell drakota what to do and whatnot and defeat all of norrath the end.</P>

[TheGReddy]

Im not big on Eq2 lore so what i mgoing to say may not be much. Anyway i think that the sword was probably the qeynos claymore was the sword because why else would the sword be in KoS.Also to finish the claymore quet u must kill Tarinax.Any similarities.Also the dragons are interested in it.Not sure who the guy who killed tarinax was but it was probably one of those Bayle people.Maybe Tarinax wanted revenge so he had to destroy the Sword that slayed him.Also the Claymore has something to do with nagafen.I saw a picture on the forum that shows the qeynos rapier and in the background was Nagafen.Thats all i got to say for someone who hasent played eq1 but knows a litle something something...Unless that is all wrong.

<hr size="2" width="100%">Verry interesting...Im thinking there is more to tOOLS than people realize....First off the link between orc and dragon (or orc Drakota) is not new in the prismatic 1 quests the orcs kill one drakota and obtain the ring u have to go and get at DFC (which is now ruled by the guy you did the SBS from lol...he just used u to get rid of the weak orc leader and put himself as leader)<div></div>
