Today ´The Archive of Ik´ was announced in our community forums by Dreyco, the Iksar Historian. The archive is a collection of lore from both EverQuest and EverQuest II, and is a gathering place for Iksar players everywhere. I thought that the launch of a new and focused fansite was an interesting opportunity to dig into the mind of the man behind the Iksar, and see what brought the site to life. After a quick exchange of information I was able to secure a quick interview with Dreyco and explore his hopes for the new site. Grimwell: Why don´t we start with you telling me what got you to build the site? What was the moment where you went from "Wouldn´t it be cool if?" to "I´m going to do this!" Dreyco: Back when I first started playing EverQuest II, I led an Iksar Role-playing guild on the Antonia Bayle server. The goal was to create an Iksar Community, and bring the Racially Proud Iksar above and beyond the stereotypes that might be painted within Freeport. It was not just to be a guild, but an inspiration to others to role-play the Iksar as they were depicted through lore: Getting others to participate from many guilds/servers in gatherings and other community events. |
