Veeshan's Peak

Overview

Veeshan's Peak is the sacred home of the Ring of Scale, which is the society of dragons that reside on the continent of Kunark. The first dragons of Norrath were placed upon the planet by the Wurm Queen herself, Veeshan. Legend states that a political disagreement led to the dragons dividing into two separate factions, and the Ring of Scale being the faction that decided leave the dragon's original home and claim Kunark as their own. The Ring of Scale built a massive lair within the largest volcano in the Skyfire Mountains. Their leader, Jaled'Dar, fell in battle with the Iksar many centuries before the Age of Turmoil. Veeshan's Peak is now governed by Jaled'Dar's daughter, Phara'Dar, and a council of ancient dragons of unfathomable power. Entering their lair requires the completion of one of the longest, most arduous quests in all of Norrath. Those dedicated enough to complete this task, given by the ghost of Emperor Ganak in Trakanon's Teeth, can join a legion of friends in entering one of the most dangerous locales Norrath has to offer. Upon entering, there is no immediate exit, and teleportation does not work here. The only way to survive the magnificent, ancient lair is to slay one or more of the legendary dragons in order to reach a teleporter behind them that will deliver one to the relative safety of Skyfire. The exit behind Phara'Dar herself is said to lead directly to the Plane of Sky. For the most elite of adventurers who are able to fell any of these ancient guardians, they will return with weapons, armor, and various other items of unimagineable power. Veeshan's Peak is the true test for Norrath's greatest champions.

In July 2004, the extensive quest required to earn a key to Veeshan's Peak was made unnecessary. A short, relatively easy quest replaced it and Veeshan's Peak was revamped slightly to allow more players to experience what relatively few had in the four years since it debuted.
