What options do we have at character creation?

When you create your character in EQII you choose your race, customize your features, and select a name.

 

What features are we able to customize?

At creation players are able to customize the character's body and face as well as the size and shape of the nose, ears, eyebrows, cheekbones, chin, and more, plus select from a multitude of hair styles and skin tones. Males can select from a wide array of beards, and there are many racially specific customizations as well. For instance, gnomes and ratonga can wear a variety of glasses with custom-tinted lenses.

Further customization can be attained through the equipping of specialized weapons, armor and items.

 

 

Am I able to alter my character’s height and weight?

You are able to adjust your character's height within a limited range. In order to maintain the integrity and distinction of each race, giant gnomes or miniature ogres will not be allowed.

 

 

Are there clothing options beyond armor?

There are a variety of casual clothing that can be worn for fun or roleplay purposes. With new graphics and game engines, EQII does not have the same limitation EverQuest did in terms of the number of armor/clothing appearances that can exist in the world.

 

 

Can I transfer my characters that I created in the original EQ to EQII?

No, existing EverQuest characters will not be transferred to EQII. EQII is a completely new game with an advancement system quite different from the original EverQuest.

 

 

Can I have multiple characters on one server?

Yes! 4 characters per account will be allowed.

 

How many levels are there?

Currently there 50 levels of advancement available. 50 in combat, and 50 in artisan, both of which are leveled differently. However, levels aren't tied to experience alone, so every character will have to undertake certain quests to advance in the game.

The Desert of Flames expansion, due out in September will raise the upper level limit to 60.

 

 

Are last names allowed?

At creation you are only allowed a first name. Level 20 brings the /lastname command which can be used to give your character a bit more depth.

Note that once given, a last name can not be deleted or modified in any way.
