They are the only monster type that was trademarked by TSR (now WotC)
actually TSR/WOTC trademarked shit load of creatures many of which now confusingly considered to be part of classical fantasy. I can't find the link atm, but there were a good 2 dozen of creatures on the list. - one I remember for sure are Illithids, which EQ stole over and renamed in their DoDH expansion.

The people who invented the first space ships were brilliant. That doesn't mean anybody should actually want to use them 200 years later. Ideas are limited by means of execution. Everquest has amazing ideas that need to be completely reworked in their execution, in order for classic Everquest as it was envisioned to actually exist and continue to be relevant as things have evolved.
