Everquest

   Everquest is one of the first few MMORPG to be rather stable and successful. It has managed to stay afloat for some 15 years and is brought to you by Sony Entertainment Online. The game also made a successful transition to the d20 systems with the help of White Wolf. Everquest itself is divided between three campaigns; Everquest, Everquest II, and Everquest Frontiers. Everquest is the main campaign world, while Everquest II takes place sometime in the future in which he moons breaks up and crashes into the world. Everquest Frontiers takes place before Everquest, where Antonica is still in the hands of the elves.

   The world of Everquest is called Norrath. It has several continents; Atonica (Tunaria), Faydwer, Kunark, Odus, Taelosia, and Velious. There are two moons, named Drinal and Luclin. Drinal takes 24 hours to orbits Norrathas it travels from north to south. Luclin on the other hand is inhabitated, and is farther away showing only the light side of the moon at all time as it hangs in the sky. Within the Ro system, there are at least three other worlds known.... Anbeal, Cordan, and Trorsmang.
   The peoples of the world also worship varies gods who form one pantheon. The first creatures of the world were dragons, created by Veeshan. Soon the gods put their own creation on the world as well. The elves were created by Tunare, the dwarves by Brell Serillis, the ogres by Rallos Zek, and the kedge by Prexus. For centuries the Ogres ruled the lands, but heir empire was to large and soon collapsed under itself.

   As the giants fell a new race was born, created last by Mithanial Marr and Erollisi Marr. The barbarians would be he precursor to humans. Soon the barbarians spread, some became more civilized and begun to fill the void left by the ogres. They soon found the Combine Empire, during this time the Erudites came into being. Yet like the time before them, Empire soon feel, but the people still endured.
