Karana  

Quest NPC

Uploaded July 24th, 2007

After killing Agnarr you must head upstairs to Karana and:

You say, 'Hail, Karana'

Karana looks down at _____'s face. He seems so insignificant next to the massive stature of the Rainkeeper. 'Don't worry mortal, Askr is unharmed, I have set him on a journey that will take him to all corners of this reality. He will either find the balance of the Fallen or he will die trying. And what of you champions? Do you wish to (follow the path of the Fallen:I will follow the path of the Fallen.)? A more dangerous path has never existed. Defy the will of the Pantheon at your peril.

You say, 'I will follow the path of the Fallen.'

Karana begins to laugh quietly. You seem to notice a great storm cloud brewing once more above him. A sudden arching bolt hits you, but you are unharmed. Instead a tome written in the language of the gods appears in your hands. 'Then let what I know be yours to know as well. Your path leads you onward _____. The path to power or ruin, the choice is up to you. Speak the words and I will (send you on your way:Send me on my path.).'

You've received a character flag!

New lore discussion between Karana and Askr

From the January 18, 2017 patch notes:

Quote:
- Karana the Rainkeeper (Raid) - Restored a dialog that was intended to take place between Askr the Lost and Karana at the conclusion of this event.

Some new lore text was added, and some new [bracketed keywords] were explicitly bracketed that were not before.

After you defeat Agnarr the Storm Lord:

Quote:
[Sat May 27 15:51:56 2017] Your faction standing with Agnarr has been adjusted by -150.
[Sat May 27 15:51:56 2017] Your faction standing with The Rainkeeper has been adjusted by 30.
[Sat May 27 15:51:56 2017] Your faction standing with Askr the Lost has been adjusted by 30.
[Sat May 27 15:51:56 2017] You gain party experience (with a bonus)!
[Sat May 27 15:51:56 2017] The storms surrounding Agnarr grow silent for a moment before erupting into a violent fury. They then calm as suddenly as they erupted. Small swirls of wind and power dance over Agnarr's body as his last breath escapes his lips.
[Sat May 27 15:51:56 2017] You have slain Agnarr the Storm Lord!

Then a version of Askr the Lost climbs the stairs up to Karana and they talk:

Quote:
[Sat May 27 15:52:47 2017] Askr the Lost shouts, 'Rainkeeper!'

[Sat May 27 15:52:48 2017] Karana stirs from his place in the shallow pool and rises up. He appears to grow several feet as he stands to his full height. He turns to Askr and smiles weakly. 'Hello, Askr. How long have I been asleep?

[Sat May 27 15:52:48 2017] Askr the Lost says, 'Many months Rainkeeper, the giants have destroyed the towers of the Bastion while you have slept. I have failed you, your trust in me has been misplaced. Much of the plane outside lies in ruins from the uncontrolled rage of the storm that my weakness allowed to happen.'

[Sat May 27 15:52:48 2017] Karana nods solemnly. 'The fault is not yours Askr. It has been a troubled journey for me, but I have found the clairvoyance that was hidden from me. The past, present, and future are aligned in my mind once more. The power of mortals is growing, and the pantheon will not be able to stop it. Knowledge is the key to true power, and the rifts between the plane of Knowledge and the mortal realms that have been opened by the Fallen have put things in motion that cannot be stopped.

[Sat May 27 15:52:48 2017] Askr the Lost says, 'The Fallen?'

The conversation appears to end here, with no reaction to hails to Askr the Lost, and only Karana giving responses now. I could not get a reply from "who are the Fallen?" from either Askr the Lost or from Karana. (Replaced Character's Name with "_____".)

Quote:
[Sat May 27 15:53:49 2017] You say, 'Hail, Askr the Lost'

[Sat May 27 15:53:54 2017] You say, 'Hail, Karana'

[Sat May 27 15:53:54 2017] Karana looks down at _____'s face. He seems so insignificant next to the massive stature of the Rainkeeper. 'Don't worry mortal, Askr is unharmed, I have set him on a journey that will take him to all corners of this reality. He will either find the balance of the Fallen or he will die trying. And what of you champions? Do you wish to [follow the path of the Fallen:I will follow the path of the Fallen.]? A more dangerous path has never existed. Defy the will of the Pantheon at your peril.

[Sat May 27 15:54:00 2017] You say, 'I will follow the path of the Fallen.'

He doesn't stay around for that long of a time. DO NOT take your time getting to him. By the time I was done killing adds and loaded up Zam to see what to say to him, he had despawned.

You get the flag by saying to Karana : I wish to follow the path of the fallen. This is the progression flag.
You get gated (bind point) if you say to Karana : send me on my path.
Getting out
# Feb 21 2006 at 6:18 AM Rating: Decent
So what is the proper way of getting out of the zone. Raid killed Agnarr and we all tried to respond to Karana, 'I will follow the path of the fallen' but had no effect. Either we gated, ported or xloc out...

Try this Casefighter.

The information obtained from Karana is written in a language that you cannot comprehend.

Agnarr flag done. You have not hailed librarian after completing Mithaniel Marr path.

As you think back to your meeting with Karana the Talisman in your chest warms and a light rain falls from the sky. When you look down, a small book written in a language you can not read, rests in your hands.

Agnarr and Karana completed, but you have not said "what lore" to librarian

I've beeen reading some posts saying that these gods look better than others well thats because Inny, Tunare, Briste Bane Ect were created before Luclin... And well to be honest the best place to go (If druid) PoG no KOS mobs no lag noone is ever in the zone (Unless raid but most plare don't raid PoG) So yes they need to update the old Gods but before you put them down before going in the zone don't post )

Actually, all gods had a model in the game when it shipped. It's just that they only used a couple, because there weren't many planes in the game when it shipped (PoFear was the only one, and it might have been added shortly after the game shipped).

It's just that the old models, pretty much look like old models. That's why Luclin models were introduced; because the old models dated the game, and SOE wanted it to remain fresh and new looking, even though it's an old game.

The original god models that are used in the game now are:

Cazic Thule
Innoruuk

The rest have had complete make-overs since the orginal game shipped.
RE: For most morons
# Sep 02 2004 at 11:36 PM Rating: Decent
Bristlebane still appears as the origional model I belive.

And since Brell has never appeared other than in GM events I'd imagine he doesn't have a revamped model either.
RE: For most morons
# Aug 10 2004 at 5:24 PM Rating: Decent
Luclin was not SoE, Luclin was Verant. Though it IS the last thing Verant ever did with EQ. Planes of Power was SoE's first expansion for EQ.

Edit: Just to clarify, yes, technically Verant was bought out before the time of release, but it's still Verant's release, really.

Not true; Tunare doesn't have a new model.
RE: For most morons
# Jul 21 2005 at 2:41 PM Rating: Default
There is also an old Solusek Ro (I think, might be Fennin) model that used to exist in the pre-vamped Plane of Mischief. He looked quite silly. It was a little doll of him and there were several of the gods that ran around. He's technically the only one that changed since he never existed during Velious.

RE: Karana flag
# Jul 22 2004 at 4:32 AM Rating: Default
You need the Mithanial Marr flag to "understand" what Karana told you. It's the information mentioned when you did the plane of justice trial. Where they told you to seek out Marr and Karana

"Mavuin tells you, 'So you have pleaded my case to the Tribunal, I am most thankful. I hope that they will listen to my case soon and release me. The knowledge that I promised you is this. The followers in the Plane of Tranquility are trying to find information on what has happened to Zebuxoruk. What I know is that he has been captured for a second time. If you want to find out more information I believe you should seek an audience with Karana and Mithaniel Marr. I can only assume that they were present at the time of his capture and know why this has taken place. Also seek from Marr a way to translate the divine language. Only with it can you understand the writing of the gods. There is no more that I can tell you, but thank you once again for your attempt in returning my freedom.' "

I get the same message, Jenali. But I just maxed out all my languages, in hopes that this makes a difference. I will repost here after I go see the Seer and find out if I needed some language to change this or not.

(I'll send you word in-game as well, if I see you on)

The short answer is that you now need the Rallos flag to access Water/Earth/Air planes.

No amount of norrathian langage learning will give you knowledge of the "divine language" (which is what the message is written in).

Wow, I always thought Karana would be female

Just sounds like a girl's name, doesn't it...
Maybe Sony/Verant are hiding something about Karana lol
RE: A....Male?
# Jul 21 2005 at 2:53 PM Rating: Default
I assume you're pronouncing it like "Kah-ran-ah" (like banana) or "Kay-rah-nah" (like "they ran, ah") when I do believe it's pronounced "Kah-Rah-nah." Emphasis on the second syllable.

I'm just an English freak and that's how I've always said it.

If you ever read ANYTHING about the gods at all karana is described as a male, Actually if you read the post right before this one you can see that.

I also thought that Karana was a women...but know i see he's a guy...I think that it'd be a really really cool GM event if Tunare and Karana got married. Lots and lots of people would come to the wedding and then Karana could be like "Ahhh!! Where is the wedding ring??!!! Well lets see...I was walking through North ro on the way here...and then i went to...blah blah blah", then someone would have to go find the wedding ring that he lost by the clues he would give about where it might be, then the person would find "the sacred wedding ring" or something like that, bring it back to Karana, turn it in..and get something like Oakwynd...or someother amazingly uber artifact...
Now THAT would be cool =P

"Karana is allied with Tunare and Mithaniel Marr. Bertoxxulous is his enemy. Followers of Karana, the Rainkeeper, believe in the absolute power of storms. They worship the life-giving power of the rain and respect the destructive force of a sandstorm or hurricane. Typical followers of Karana are rural humanoids - farmers, ranchers, hunters, and the like. They will often offer strangers shelter from the elements. Many of Karana's followers live a nomadic lifestyle, travelling where the winds take them. They are humble, generous people who value strength and honesty and brook no disrespect of Karana or of his work for they know it is only through his wisdom and kindness that all of Norrath is not consumed in an eternal tempest."

Why would you think Karana is female? In every drawing and text reference to Karana throughout the game, including the manual and strat guide listing all the gods, Karana is a male.

You don't kill Karana, and even if you do for some reason you'll get nothing.

You kill Agnarr the Storm Lord, and as soon as he dies Karana wakes up from his coma and you get a flag from him. Agnarr drops the Crystallized Rain not Karana. I know cause he dropped it for us tonight.
