I started playing a few months before Kunark. The game wasn't retailed in Sweden, so I had to order from the US. Took a few weeks and the package arrived torn to bits (thanks postal service). The CD was intact though.
I had decided on a barbarian shaman, cause the EQ website had this awesome character wearing a polar-bear cap. A RL friend of mine made an ogre, and we were gonna hook up in Innothule swamp. I pulled out the (somewhat torn) poster map included in the box and plotted a south-ish course from Halas...at level 5. I made it all the way to lake Rathe without SoW. The sheer size of the lake and the previous nerve-wrecking ordeals through Blackburrow and what-not made me /wristquit on the spot and never log that char back on again.
