Whole family jumped in
A couple weeks after launch, my whole family jumped in. I remember running into freeport as an Ogre warrior with no knowledge of factions, I never got that body back.

I started right after luclin, its nice to be able to go back and see what eq was like during its first few years, and watch it grow tward the game i fell inlove with back then. That music in kelethin will pull you into the game so deep. you cant see daylight anymore.

I remember making a wood elf warrior on my friends PC who just got EQ just after Velious was out. . . . I remember putting lots of points into charisma. . . . . it sounded reasonable for a noobie trying to make money hahaha....
Most of my time playing that character (only got to level 5) was spent in the tunnel begging for handouts. There were some generous players . . . =) | ||

I started mid kunark. Made a high elf cleric. Got to about 15 and headed off to the commons for my first trip to EC. The chat spammed by so fast, it seemed. It was a surreal experience. Then next thing i knew, people were just giving me stuff. I was like" this game is great people help each other out". then i met a friend of mine and we discovered I was a female high elf. I never saw the male/female tab. It was a good laugh. Being a female toon got me free stuff.

My older brother got into EQ when I was in 5th grade because of a few of his friends. We shared an account for about a year before he drifted away from the game, and the account effectively became mine.
Some of my best memories from middle school involved playing EQ with my friends, especially when Kunark was released. My dad had just upgraded us from dial-up to cable, and it became something of a new game because of it. I remember the Kunark box came with that cloth map that I held onto for many years and is now probably somewhere crumpled up in my attic, sadly. I also remember getting the official Kunark strategy guide for my birthday. Looking back on it, I'm not sure why anyone would want a watered-down EQ strategy guide... One of my fondest memories was during Kunark era, I believe, when there was an event in Qeynos Hills that filled the zone with mass amounts of undead, including massive skeletons. We were all like level 9 so we just kind of ran around dying over and over, hoping to get some free stuff from the lvl 60's that began filling the zone. The utter mystery and fear that originally made this game so epic has waned a bit. My main was a 65 high elf enchanter on Cazic-Thule named Yuroshi. | ||

I started playing EQ about 2 months after it went live and got my first account in October of the same year. Veteran all the way.

Got a mage to lvl 8 on the Tunare server. Found my way into Lavastorm, died to a pair of red con fire elementals while burning down a fire drake.
Decided I wanted a wizard and the fact I couldn't attack other players (hey I was a dark race) was kinda gimp. From there? I logged into Rallos Zek for what was undoubtedly the most unique and best experience I think I'll ever have in an MMO. | ||
