EQ:Races There are sixteen playable races in EverQuest, and a considerably higher number of non-player races. There are several notable differences between races beyond the visual; several races get enhanced night vision, forage, slam, hide, or sneak. The races also start off with different statistics, something that is now fairly irrelevant because of the ease of capping your stats.
