Lady Vox

Overview

Lady Vox, an ice dragon formerly of the Ring of Scale, resides in the deepest depths of the ice in Permafrost Keep. The stories heard in the taverns of Halas state that she was exiled centuries ago by her kin for attempting to mate with a dragon of a different color. Armies comprised of both good and evil adventurers have banded together on countless occasions in attempts to slay the mighty ice dragon, but few have returned. Those few to survive her lair return with some of Norrath's richest treasures, but also with horror stories of friends encased in ice for eternity or slaughtered by massive bears after falling to Vox's traps.

EverQuest

Lady Vox, along with Lord Nagafen, and Phinigel Autropos, is one of the three original raid bosses in EverQuest.

Not long after the release of the game's first expansion, The Ruins of Kunark, the rules for fighting Lady Vox and Lord Nagafen were changed. Since the level cap had increased from 50 to 60, Lady Vox and Lord Nagafen, who are both level 55, were now much easier to defeat. So, the developers decided to institute a mechanic that would teleport anyone over level 52 out of the dragon's respective dungeon if they tried to attack Lady Vox or Lord Nagafen. This was done to ensure there was challenging raid content for players who had not yet reached max level.

Permafrost Keep: Hardcore Heritage

During EverQuest's annual anniversary celebrations, beginning every year in March, there is a period of time called 'Hardcore Heritage' where Permafrost Keep, and other select dungeons, are increased in difficulty. Permafrost Keep is increased to challenge level 90 players during Hardcore Heritage. Also during this time, a raid instance involving Lady Vox is available to players in which she is exponentially more powerful and uses different abilities than before including being assisted by a small army of frost spiders and ice goblins throughout the encounter.

Similar to the "Ancient Heroes" version of Lady Vox, the Hardcore Heritage loot items are identical in name to the original items that she drops but the stats are once again increased, comparable to top tier items found during the House of Thule era of the game.
