Hello fellow Norrathians!
Just like the Reanimated Hands, the Evil Eyes are a very memorable monster of Norrath, but I had absolutely no idea where they could have come from until the Monsters of Norrath book gave me two incredibly vague sentences about their possible origin maybe. It states that they are a 'hold over' from Rallos Zek's failed war, but since they don't seem to have suffered the gods curse like other races I don't think they actually worked wit his army. This is pure speculation but this might be implying that a portal was opened on their plane and they used it to enter Norrath. The only other theory is that human enchanters were messing around with transmogrification and goofed it up badly enough that their now permanently floating eyeballs. Its interesting to note that the book specifies 'human' enchanters here.
I even managed to get King Xorbb to make an appearance just for the occasion and it wasn't easy, he's a very busy eye.
I wanted to do more with this video but apparently replacing my hard drive isn't enough to save my old computer, so let this be its swan song, it was a good 12 years but alas all things come to an end. I'll be seeing ya'll for Halloween! Planning to do an old favorite of mine just for the occasion.
Big thank you to itsPuz, here's a link to his twitch: / itspuz - เกม

Love these! Keep up the good editing!
MOAR! this content is great! I look forward to seeing your next video.
Thank you for your support! I'll be doing my best to get the next one out before Halloween :)
Love the videos. Shared with EQ Facebook group, your channel needs to grow!
These are amazing please do more!
Thank you, I defiantly plan to continue!
@@lorewhoregalore1393 please do one about Firiona Vie. There's really not much about her on any of the wikis.
@@griffca4814 You'd think the game mascot would have pages of lore but I've literally found more on the Allizewsaur then her. I'll keep looking around and see if I can find more history on her than just her battle in Kithicor and the outpost that bares her name.
@@lorewhoregalore1393 I saw some stuff from the comics. There like 30$ a pop so too rich for me. Apparently her mother was married to the king but had an affair with the leader of the high elf paladins and Firiona Vie was born. A scandal like that would ruin the paladins and the king so the king pretends she's his daughter while encouraging the "princess" to lead a life of a common adventurerer. Far and away from Felwithe.
That's what I got from synopsis of it.
@@griffca4814 I didn't even know these comics existed! I'll definatly have to look into them.
What always freaked me out was that sound of their eye lid when you get close to them Yikes! Also the named ones in the gorge anyways had round objects in their names like Sviir, Syrkl love that zone
King Xorbb is one of the hardest mobs to spawn I have camped. There is no known pattern to spawning him. I found circling the zone with a ranger darting everything that moves seems to be the best practice and may still take days to weeks to get the King up.
What about the eyes stolen from the sea giants to turn them into cyclops? The giant hands got reanimated. The eyes... I blame Gnomes. It had to be the Gnomes.
I was thinking the exact same thing as I was watching the video!
Love your videos
These fellows exist in EQOA in an area known as Elephant Graveyard, they go by the name of Child of Xrag, and there is an Overlord Xrag with a headdress that's at the top of a temple. Some are undead but most are not. Not sure if EQOA offered any insight on them, i think their Overlord was part of a quest. Not sure. I just know that people very frequently pulled him into other groups downstairs lol, because i had been killed quite a few times by him.
A popular spot for Enchanters who would charm a VERY OP, nearby mob in Kelinar known as an Ebony Recluse. Sadly the site cleared out for a while after SoE added an extremely powerful caster mob known as Sphere of Annihilation and also decreased the charm time of the recluse if memory serves.
We largely went back once acquiring more levels and arcane resistance gear.
lol great video I'm glad I found your channel
They all float down here
I just found these. They are great. TY LW.
sweet. eq lore
Praise Ro!
Praise Innoruuk!
According to everquest 2 lore they are creations of cazic thule born in the plane of fear.
Just sleep and staaaaaaaaaaaaaab! Lmao
Could the evil eyes somehow be related to the eyes that Prexus plucked from the seafury cyclops?
I thought that too! But they can see me while I have the Invisibility vs Undead spell on me, so at the very least it shows they aren't undead. But that optic nerve/tail they have hanging from them does make me think that might have been their original origin story. Maybe?
I didn't realize they had to be undead to be eyes from a cyclops but it looks like you're right. I did a little more digging and found this old post about evil eyes from EQ 2 (forums.daybreakgames.com/eq2/index.php?threads/i-guess-even-the-evil-eyes-have-thier-myths-legends-and-gods.422545/ . I believe the third post is from a dev for EQ1 and EQ2 (Vhalen).
@@malek351 Great find! Because of the way EQ history was recorded (alot of its wasn't officially written down from what I understand) some aspects of EQ lore have completely different explanations depending on the source your looking at. For the purposes of my videos I'll be trying to limit the information I present to what I find in EQ1 and in the published books, but forum posts like these are still really interesting!
In your video about the Reanimated hands you determined they were the severed hands of giants still able to wield magic. In that same video it was mentioned that Prexus plucked the eye of each seafaring giant. Possible they were reanimated in a similar way as the hands?
Do Like!
By that Tunare screenshot, I assume you are old school Reso (or current as well)? 2016 was a great year for Phinigel server :D
