FEYN - Ranger, Cycle of Noon, Vigil, Pact Commander, Wayfinder
Where Feyn would once have been content to remain in Celedon Forest her whole life, the call of her Wyld Hunt pulling her into the wider world could not be denied. Destiny would lead her to joining the Vigil and later the Pact, but her rise to Commander would not come until the death of the original Commander during the campaign against Mordremoth. Though the weight of her new responsibility weighs heavily on her, she knows that with the help of her friends victory is always possible.
Since the end of the Dragon Cycle, Feyn found it difficult to adjust to "normal" life. When the Astral Ward offered her a place in her ranks, she jumped at the chance to use her skills to defend the world once again, but her eagerness has begun to fade the more she sees of the Ward's history.
BATO GHOSTCLAW - Deadeye, Ash Legion, Order of Whispers
The life of a charr is never easy - especially when your father is a known Flame Legion traitor. Bato spent much of her early life proving her worth through strength of claw and force of will, making enough of a name for herself to be selected by Imperator Swordshadow to join the Order of Whispers (and later the Pact) specifically to keep the Imperators informed on their dealings. As time passed, however, Bato found herself more and more torn between her loyalties to her people and her duty to help protect the world from danger, but deep inside she knows she would do anything for her newfound friends.
Bangar's civil war was a trying time for all charr, but in the end it brought Bato the clarity she had been searching for years - that her nature as a charr between worlds was exactly what the legions needed to rebuild and find purpose in a world without war. Though she is not a member of the Ward, she is always ready to lend her rifle and dagger to any cause Feyn believes in.
PATHFINDER GHELI - Elementalist, College of Synergetics, Durmond Priory, Astral Ward Operative
Gheli is the quintessential asura: ingenious, insufferable, and introverted (at least at the start of our story). Her quest for the ever-elusive invention that would put her name in the history books drove away every krewe who would take her, leading Zojja to loan her to the Priory, where she was partnered with one Magister Sieran in hopes that the twoβs conflicting personalities would balance each other out and teach them both to mellow out. Against all odds, the two became nearly inseparable, which only added to the tragedy the attack at Claw Island. Forever marked by the memory of her first true friend, Gheli works to honor her legacy alongside her new companions.
After a decade of fighting dragons and saving the world, Gheli was eager to return to lab research and development. The sudden appearance of the Astral Ward introduced new avenues of research and unparalleled resources, and Gheli jumped at the chance to join their ranks - though the sudden reunion with a post-ascension Zojja has undeniably dampened her spirits.

It sure is a good time to be someone who is very chill about games, because with the fact we're getting more GW2 alongside GW3, plus probably extra stuff for GW1, I really feel like
There's a spot in GW2 that's a surface asuran settlement with little to no information known about it. There's a renown heart there, with the Priory investigating the ruins. The only things known are a) it's asuran in origin and b) it has artifacts dating to when Orr was a thriving nation.
anyway i just want to say i 100% understand people being unhappy about gw3. i am too!! i've seen it happen so many times where a company thinks they can handle just one more live service game and it becomes their downfall and takes what they had going with it.
but all we have is a cg trailer. anet has already promised development on gw2 will continue, we'll get more details tomorrow. let's be a little afraid together, let's keep playing the game we love, but let's not jump straight to doom and gloom so soon.

gw3 announcement, it's a prequel to 1, so there's no charr sylvari or asura.... i feel like im taking crazy pills where a bunch of big games/companies are like "you know what will make this next venture sell more? if we take out all the stuff people loved the most in our other products and called it a day."
Vloxx and Ankka are really interesting to me in extremely different ways, and that's because their motivations and their end goals are so wildly different from one another, but they're compelling in their own way.
Ankka is a nihilist who got overwhelmed by the Void and Zhaitan's magic, and jaded and pretty messed up from killing her Fractal duplicate over and over again for - as far as anyone is aware - no really good reason. She came to believe that to struggle against life was meaningless, because why is there a point to existence if it could end at any given moment? And her takeaway became "all existence is meaningless; the only thing that exists is this endless, pointless cycle of death and recreation, so why don't we hurry things along to utter nothingness." Creation, destruction, life, death, all of it meant nothing. She felt nothing for it, for herself or anyone else (except arguably Mai Trin though that isn't heavily explored). Life had no purpose. So end it and start over.
Vloxx, on the other hand, is an extremist idealist. He sees power structures in the world and believes that the only way for people to be safe and free is to destroy the power structures that limit them. Monarchies, organizations like the Tyrian Alliance and the Arcane Council, Isgarren and his wizards, all of them exist to impose their own ideas of safety and freedom on the populace, and all that's come of it is more violence and death. His end goal is not to hurry the world along to destruction. His end goal is ending that cycle by removing the structures he believes further suffering, to give the power back to the people to protect their future. It's why he believes so deeply in the Commander, not as a person but as an icon.
And the biggest similarity is that they are both partially right, even if it's not entirely. It's the same with Joko, who was also partially right but missed the big details. It doesn't make them the same, or even similar with their goals and ideals. But it's an interesting thread GW has explored time and time again with regards to how others view our deeds and how we move forward in light of it.
We influenced Joko. Ankka. Vloxx. It's interesting.
To Feyn: "Your friends are acting irrational. The whispers must be getting to them. Send them home, you'd be better off alone."
To Bato: "They're not giving Ryland a fair chance. The Commander's made peace with enemies before, why not now? Will you let fear decide the future of your people?"
To Gheli: "It's so cold, and you're all so tired. Lie down and rest. It's the smart thing to do."

Skyscales can find vertical surfaces to cling to that the six, the spirits of the wild, the eternal alchemy, and all the mists have never even conceived of. The concept of a mime was invented by skyscales
