Recovering old EQ characters

[Forsh]

Is there a way outside of Everquest to see if a character still exists? I know some of you played lots of EQ so I wanted to see if any of you might know this -- how to see if it's still there but inactive. If my Ranger is still around I had considered resubbing and just seeing what things look like 13-years later. It's sorta bizarre how I have always found myself emotionally attached to my Ranger. Not sure it that's normal. Probably not.

A friend I used to play EQ with from 2000-2007 he told me that his character was never wiped and told me to check and see if it still exists. That was a very long time ago and I can't remember everything related to my account because I was in the U.S. Marines and moving from duty station to duty station which means my addresses, phone numbers, etc kept changing.
