On April 1, most characters in the Guild Lobby are invisible, except for their primary / secondary items and their name (Shadowman illusion). Some are tumbleweeds, vases, or treasure chests.

Bristlebane tells you, 'You'll be MUCH easier to draw like this!'

Bristlebane Day, 2009 - Beastlord name change. (Image: massively.joystiq.com)

The classes got a rename.

The EverQuest team said this was "to correct some inconsistencies with many player's perception of class roles compared to their intended roles...[they] hope that the new names will help alleviate any confusion there might have been about their intended roles and class vision. We've also modified the various class titles as they change over levels in order to more accurately portray their progression through the game."
