Players still caught in the iron grip of EverQuest will rejoice at today's announcement of a fresh expansion that not only raises the level cap, but introduces the Drakkin - an entirely new player race.
A new race is something that hasn't been seen in EverQuest for over three years. In a last desperate measure to save their dying race, dragons bred with humans to protect their future, and created the Drakkin. These half-breeds mature extremely quickly and match the appearance of the dragons that sired them.
The world will expand high into the Serpent Spine Mountains, where players will find the long-abandoned, ancient city of Ogres called Crescent Reach, now home to the Drakkin. While all Drakkin adults make a pilgrimage to Crescent Reach to find their creators and the rest of their kind, the city promises new quests and items for all adventurers.
