What do you do when you can’t go adventuring outside? Go adventuring in Guild Wars 2! 

Featuring:

J. Vendrahl (Human Warrior), now a Berzerker with a completed Astralalia and a nifty Devoted torch, Warlord’s chest/leggings, and an updated colour scheme

Noriya Fieldborn (Sylvari Druid) with new Blossoming Mistshard armor and Illuminated Boreal weapons

Malthael the Wise taking in some Verdant Brink scenery

A sneak peek at my Norn Revenant redesign into a Death Maiden

Grothmar Valley being gorgeous as usual

Vili?

The most obvious answer would be her mother. Oh sure, most of it’s leftover childhood idolizing, when parents are infallible in their eyes.

But Vili grew up in the halls and rooms of diplomacy, and watched her mother time and time again walk into a storm of shouting and papers and end it all within seemingly minutes, without having to raise her voice.

She’s also watched her walk towards the most barbaric and violent of Mulinee tribes and clap them on the shoulder like an old friend, and leave like she was leaving a family reunion rather a negotiation.

And Sanctuary is not without it’s dangers, in battle her mother is a carefully controlled beast. Both a shadow on the field and a raging bull, enemies usually dead before they realize or fleeing in terror.

And all on top this she sees how much her mother cares for her and her siblings, making sure she has time enough for them, rarely budging on interruptions of said time. She sees her compassion for her neighbors and friends, helping them whenever she can.

1: Bi or Demi-bi? She’d rather get to know someone first before bedding with them, but that can be as far as “friends with occasional benefits” than “I wanna have a relationship with you”

2. She currently doesn’t have an official S/O. More longtime friends-with-benefits than anything else

3. She and Pris are thicker than thieves. She confides in her troubles and also is a shoulder for Pris to lean on as well, along with some elbowing and general teasing on both ends. Chialnaoth does get along with most of the other Heads and Hands of the other clans, though only a few she would actually invite over for dinner.

4. I’m not really sure. She would probably never take on a human partner for personal reasons, but given she’s not actively looking for a relationship, probably anyone at this point

5. For the longest time she couldn’t understand why she was picked to be the Right, until Ki Kanol explained he needed someone who could read people, get inside their heads, predict if they didn’t have the right intentions. Being able to adapt to situations quickly and read the room before entering were even bigger bonuses in his book. He didn’t want a diplomat that merely was going to parrot his words, he wanted someone who could easily gain the knowledge needed to negotiate a fair deal for everyone involved without having to go into a three hour session of back and forth.

6. I wanna make sure my friends and family are safe too.

7. She carries the equivalent of a wallet with pictures of her daughters, and shows them off whenever she gets the chance. She also is guilty of taking a while to catch up with someone she hasn’t seen for a bit, which may take longer than she intends much to her daughters’ chagrin.

Chialnaoth, direct Descendant of Tal’Vazen, Right Hand of the Kiga, Mother of Ada, Takoma, and Vilinaya.

Originally a spy, she became disillusioned with her order’s mission, and was soon recruited by Ki Kanol to serve as his Right. She currently officially oversees and participates in diplomatic missions on his behalf. Her skills are not going to waste however, as she is the unofficial spymaster of the Kiga, keeping her ears open for whispers in the dark that may prove a threat.

Have a few Charr ladies as I procrastinate actually doing stuff in game

It be fine! You can always call her Chial if needs be! :3

Chialnaoth regularly has nightmares, kinda expected with what she’s been through and her age.

The most frequent one is that she’s back with her mother, small and weak, trapped and unable to escape this time. It varies with who else is there or what else happens, but it’s enough to make her get out of bed and not want to fall asleep again until the next night.
