North Karana is the "nexus" of the Karana Plains. Despite the dangers of the roaming lions, wolves, bears, griffons, and occasional hill giant, this place is quite the player-friendly area: Here, you'll find a few guard watch towers for aid, a gypsy camp with vendors, and a druid ring and wizard spires for porting.

Speaking of guard watch towers, North Karana is home to what may be the most active guards in all of Norrath. The tower in the center of the zone is in the path of many a wandering animal and keeps its guards fighting off trouble on a steady basis. They win most of their battles, but occasionally lose, particularly when the opponent is an upper level hill giant, griffon, or GrimFeather.

Myself and two other level 39'ers ran into him in WEST Karana. Not North Karana. Wondering if it is the same mob and he travels zones? He was near the zone to NK and beat the snot out of us before we could do much to him. Again, very resistant to snares and roots, as well as most other spells we threw at him.

Killed him myself just now on AB... although I'd heard of him before the Jagged Pine patch (he'd beaten down another druid who'd been hunting HGs)

Looted 4gp and the Feather.

Ensnare and Grasping Root bounced off him every time... and 1 out of 4 Drifting Death was resisted. Level 40 sounds about right... hits a little weaker than GrimFeather, casts SK spells (Fear and low level Lifetap... but dind't use Clinging Darkness line, thankfully), and is only a little slower than SoW speed.

oops... double posted...

Anyways... earliest reference to this critter I can find is a post on Alt.Games.Everquest dated June 14th (nobody there knows what the feather's for, either)

I have a suspicion that this beast is tied to a JaggedPine Forest quest. My druid spends a lot of time in NK and I never saw him before the patch. I killed him and got the NoDrop silver feathers as a drop. A 40 druid watching my pet beat him down said he conned even.
