History

This is one of the instances with flavor text. In EverQuest, Quillmane was an rare named mob that spawned in South Karana, and her cloak, which was a rare drop, was required to complete the Magician Epic 1.0 (so basically, a rare drop from an already rare mob!).

Players came up with insane theories on how to get Quillmane to spawn, from killing certain mob "cycles" to killing everything in a certain direction as you run through the zone. It's unlikely that anyone ever quite figured out the true way of making her spawn aside from "kill everything and have a tracker!".

(upon moving up after zoning in)

a ranger says, "If you are looking for Quillmane, he hasn't been seen in a while. Try killing the placeholders around the area... Anything can be a placeholder!"


(upon killing Quillmane)

an angry magician says, "I turn my back for a second and someone swoops in and steals my kill... RAGE!!1!"
an angry magician says, "That's what I get for going afk... Oh well, there goes another week of camping..."
an angry magician says, "Nooooooooo!!"
