Arasai

[Creat]

Pretty newbish when it comes to EQ and its lore. What in the world does an Arasai look like? Anyone have a link?

You'll have to wait till the content is pushed to Test. =P

So they aren't from a earlier Everquest?

[Snowdonia]

Not that I ever heard of. But I'm way old school. Anything after Planes of Power I wouldn't know. But there's definately nothing in the old lore of EQ about Arsai.

I never played EQOA and my memory for EQ1 is faint. I can't really answer that question. Nontheless I'm sure they will have a different look for Eq2... whatever an evil fae will look like. <img src="/smilies/908627bbe5e9f6a080977db8c365caff.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" />

If you read the story you'll see that the creation of the Arsai took place less than 300 years ago, actually probably after EoF came out/ and EQ1 ended 500 years ago so nah they weren't around at all.

They were a mutant race engineered by Queen Thex, after Neriak proper was sealed off from the Leatherfoot Brigade (the section that we now know as Fallen Gate is only a small part of the city).  And, they <b>do </b>have wings like their Fae counterparts.

A "purified" version of there respective flawed orginal forms... atleast from Queen Cristanos Thex's point of view. Just like Inny Created the Dark Elfs though torcher so to did Cristanos create the Arasai from the Sprit Buds of Fae.
