Women in GW2

[Sliske]

All of those names i still remember from my time in GW1 . Good times.

[Adoris]

I mean come on. Most of the heroes in fantasy worlds would've given up on life after the first few points.

Indeed, but she did like to remind everyone of how she had suffered. Kind of like a vegan, letting you know of how he doesn't eat anything normal people would.
I still liked her tho. Even if she was a massive cow more often than not. NO YOU WILL NOT MURDER PYRE, GWEN! NOT ON MY WATCH D:<

Eir reminds me of Lucy Lawless, my childhood heroine:

[DrakeWurrum]

chances are she's either killed off (Lillian Voss)

Wait, they killed her? Last I heard of her was Tirisfal, and then we never heard from her again.

[Vahaal]

Lillian Voss will be a boss encounter in scholo, Mind controlled btw.


I dont remember to kill her there, but you never know.

Ghosts of Ascalon also had 3 strong female characters. And they all had a healthy amount of depth. And they were from different races. Killeen was a good introduction to sylvari, and the female charr was equally multifaceted.
Another female chaar hat a minor role as a commander of one of the three organisations you can later choose in your story.
Did I mention Rytlock is perhaps the grandfather of the female chaar protagonist?

Almorra Soulkeeper is Ember's grandmother. It really isn't implied that Rytlock is the grandfather- just that he knows Almorra.

Her story is pretty awesome- she survived the Dragonbrand- the only one of her warband to not be corrupted. She was a legionnaire for the blood legion, and then founded the Vigil.

And we indeed never do hear from her again. Until MoP that is. She's a big quest-giver for the revamped SM, and makes her final appereance on Scholo.

(Spoilers) where she tries to kill the grandmaster of the school of necromancy, but fails and is mind-controlled. We then have to put her down. So sad, she was a character with some potential, but the cries of some people screaming MARY SUE! proved to be too much and now they're killing her.

Not true. That was rumors/speculation/hints. She only temporarily has a fit.

Not that I don't trust your word, but do you have any proof?

in the book of Tides of War, she goes pretty much berserk, admittedly, those were unofficial spoilers, so I also have no way to know if those are true either

Either way, have you seen any evidence of her returning to her diplomatic old self?

Of the 6 gods, 4 of them are female.

That's why the world is going to shit :P

I didn't say implied. I just got the feel that rytlock and her grandmother were involved and thus there would be a probability of him being her grandsire. As it is, I have no Idea how Charr handle relationships exactly, but they strike me as the sort without much family bonding really, more the mother-raises-child type.

I too like Heroine.

i have brought shame on myself and my family for literally laughing out loud at this :P

Is any thread really necessary? I've seen far more frivolous ones pop up one these forums.
