Overview
Drawn from Kuua — compiled history.EQ1Community article · best available source
Kuua is the ruined home world of the noble Dragorn. Though the Dragorn were once the dominant race on the world (perhaps the only intelligent race, at least in the areas explored by Norrathians), their civilization was crushed by the armies of the Discord slaver, Overlord Mata Muram. Beasts indigenous to Kuua include Bazu, Ferans, Chimeras and Murkgliders. Interestingly, Kuua also has a noticeable rat and bat population, though it's not clear if these are native or if they were somehow brought there from Norrath. As they are visually identical to Norrathian rats and bats, and found only in Dranik's Scar and Dranik's Hollows, the areas closest to the portal to Norrath, there is some evidence for the latter theory. The only undead found in Kuua (aside from those brought there by Norrathian necromancy) are small groups of undead murkgliders.

…"As you may know, my kin believe that all the dragorn were created by the death of a single dragon, Dranik — the great father. The first dragorn to walk Kuua created many things in his honor. Among these creations was a fearsome battle standard painted with a drop of blood from each of Dranik's firstborn sons.
