Into the depths of the Desert of Ro

We've been keeping track as the EverQuest Players site wanders through the history of Norrath's most famous locations. From the depths of deep dungeons to the highest tips of fantastically tall trees, we're right there. Today we're walking the arid dunes of the Desert of Ro, a fantastically large area of Norrath situated near the Commonlands and Freeport in the North and Innothule Swamp in the South. Split by the Oasis of Marr, you and a group could adventure in those areas from the very earliest levels to level 30 or so.

The writeup details the history of the region, which at one point was a huge and verdant forest. Now a baking wasteland, wits and a strong swordarm are needed to survive here. Surprisingly, the writeup doesn't detail one of the most legendary of Ro denizens, the famous Fansy the Bard. Sand Giants in the Southern desert still tell tales about this mythical figure, though those tales are most likely NSFW. You've been warned.
