But there are 3 chessboards if I can recall in the game. The first you see in the picture is the lowest level area one. There are two more in two different tier 2 areas(Lvl 20+). I will leave those for you to discover. :) Good luck out there Brackish. :) I am LOVING my return to Norath as well. Now don’t take this a truth.

Granted, I played it at release, but things have changed quite a bit since then. I haven't done much crafting since returning, but I understand there was a relatively large tradeskill revamp some time back, so what I know is probably obsolete. I haven't seen that chessboard yet. When I came back, I decided to start over in Qeynos since that is where I started at launch. I figured my best incursion back into the world would be by first seeing what all had changed in the areas that I already knew. Still, way back in EQ, there were 2 chessboards that I recall... although, both were considerably larger than this one. The one that would be close to this area you are in was actually a hunting spot populated by very large skeletons of various degrees of difficulty. (http://everquest.allakhazam.com/scenery/butcherblock-chess.jpg) Kelethin was in the original game. It was the home to the wood elves and was constantly under attack by the Crushbone Orcs. (http://everquest.allakhazam.com/scenery/gfaydark-podlift.jpg) I died more times than I care to admit falling out of that city back in my early days. That is one thing that I have always appreciated about EQ2... they seem to have done a really good job at keeping the lore in tact between the games. I'm hoping to be back online tonight. I nearly have my cold licked, so hopefully I will be able to see you soon in game. I would love to shed some light on your questions for you, but I’m still figuring EQ2 out myself.
