Scott 'Gallenite' Hartsman has just made this post in the Developer Roundtable forum:

The EverQuest II team is extremely happy to announce the following addition for update #35, expected to launch toward the end of May.

Coinciding with the release of the dark elven city of Neriak as well as the new race to be found therein, the Arasai, your EQ2 and/or Station Access account will be gaining at least one new character slot.

We will be adding one slot to the standard EverQuest II subscription, increasing the base number of character slots available to 7.

Station Access members also see their limit increase by an additional slot.

To summarize, with update #35 the EQ2 subscription plans will have slots available as follows:
  • Standard EQ2 Subscription: 7 character slots
  • Station Access Subscription: 12 character slots

Good hunting, be it in Darklight Wood or elsewhere.
