Today, to celebrate the launch of EverQuest II's newest expansion, Rise of Kunark, we present Part Two of our RoK Creature Feature, an article that looks at some of the new monsters that players will run into in the expansion.

 

The Fishman have long kept to the depths of the deepest oceans, far from the reach of surface dwellers. In the past, they never raided the shores of Norrath. However, something has brought them to the beaches and grottos. They hide some of the most ancient secrets of Norrath. Could some ancient secret called them to the surface or forced them from their homeland under the sea? 

Below, you will find images representing: concept art for the Fishman's armor and a look at the completed Fishmen:

 

Read the whole thing here.

Read Part One here.

Cheers,

I like the idea of the Fishermen, it sounds lovecraftian, the Sokokar on the other hand look too cartooney

Ok the fishmen kinda sound like "Murlocs" from world of warcraft.  Giants are giants and now even more little dragons....I know there has to be something in this expansion thats new?  Oh yeah, they have a new lizard-dragon race, but wait weren't they the ones we used to kill on the zone into Skyfire in the Overthere?

These all sound cool lorewise. I like the look of the Frogon or Draglock or Sonys' funny name for them. Some might say too cartoony but to me is something that actually looks like what I will enjoy in the game. The fishmen look stupid and that is cool since they are not. Hope can get faction with the giants because would be cool to see what one could get from them.
