Hmmm .... it's Warmarshal Varesh Ossa, most likely.
I would have hoped for a little more fearsome and distinct species than a human. Kuunavang pwnz Varesh any time.
[edit]By the way, Varesh is the guy on the left in this offscreen photo from GC 2006.[/edit]

It also mentions special 'dances' in the CE. Is this at all accurate? Can we trust this?

Human pets are cool, but not as cool as a flying dragon. If this is true I'm happy, I just hope the new dances aren't Paragon/Dervish exclusive.

sweeet, I never doubted you CE dance tear*. I have a feeling the Varesh pet wont sell nearly as well as Kuunavang as he's just some ugly human.

I, too, wonder whether the info comes from NCsoft. That's because the text doesn't use the official nomenclature:
* ANet would never call it "Vareshpet". Even "minipet" isn't official. Officially it's called a "miniature".
* Similar for the "signature dances". Signature?? The official nomenclature is "dance emote".
So in any case DiscShop re-worded what they got from NCsoft. Or they simply made it up, guessing based on the Factions CE content.

well it does call it a collector miniature then says Vareshpet in parenthesis

That, too, doesn't sound like something NCsoft would write. Why "collector"? I'd expect NCsoft to call it an "exclusive miniature" or something like that.
mega_jamie
rememebr that CE NF is comming with Miniature standees, and Gaile said herself in her last visit she knew not of any in game content for CE yet.
Not trustworthy imo

Good point. They dont' mention the standee. But the problem with that is it say it's a miniature (Vareshpet). Unless it's a standee of a minipet...

do you really think if something of that magnitude were added to the CE that ANET would not have it plastered all over the GW site to help sales?
think of the added minidrag and the forum flood that caused.
they add a minipet to the CE and nobody notices it?
how about something got lost in the translation along with a big dose of wishful thinking
double sheeshhhh
Mordakai
Well, to be fair, didn't the Heroes thing leak before being officially announced by Anet?
But you have a point. How would this Swedish company scoop the rest of the world, when Anet is based near Seattle?
I, too, file under "wishful thinking" and will patiently (or not), await an official Anet announcement.

- Many (infact most) features of GW Nightfall revealed in previews are not mentioned on gw.com yet, let alone "plastered all over the site to help sales".
- There is no complete content list for Nightfall on any official website yet, neither for the standard edition nor CE.
- The official Factions CE content listing still does not even mention the CE exlusive Kuunavang miniature.
Tripple sheeesh.

That ugly old bloke? bleh doesn't excite me =/

Well they aparently know something i mean they even list the name of the minipet...so to me its true till we hear otherwise.

We know it's supposed to come with a standee. But nowhere does it say it's a Varesh standee and it refers to a Varesh pet so it seems to be something seperate.

If I remember correctly the Miniature Kuunie was added after or just before release as a bonus for the delay/shortage of the CE. But I hope those things that site mentions are true. The official statement from Anet did say "more" at the end. This could be the "more".
Mordakai
Kuunivang was announced after Factions went on sale.
I know because I bought reg. Factions, and would have bought the CE had I known about the dragon!
The fact that even PC Gamer is handing out mini-pets now, gives me hope that the CE will have a unique mini-pet - but I hope it would be something more exciting than Varesh.

I know it's incredibly boring, but I can only repeat what Gaile has said when asked about rumours in the past: Until we confirm something, don't set your heart on it being true. If it's a rumour, chances are it's going to be wrong. That's the way these things go, a lot of the time. Someone will talk about something they'd *like* to have, and overtime as more people talk about it it gets twisted into "I heard they are going to do this..." __________________ Alex 'GhostRaptor' Weekes Guild Wars Community Relations NCsoft Europe |

To clear thing up I read the guide pdf from bonus pack, Varesh is a female dervish, descendant of Turai Ossa (the ghostly hero in Crystal Desert). It's also in guildwiki:
http://gw.gamewikis.org/wiki/Varesh_Ossa
So judging from that picture, she should be on the right. There are already male minipets like Rurik and Shiro, this time would be female one ^^

The woman in that pic has been identified as Morghan (or some other wierd spelling). I suppose we don't really know who's named what. lol
Mordakai
Well, according to PC Gamer, Morgahn is a male Hero... (I think PC Gamer is wrong, but I hope Morgahn does end up being a Hero, if she is indeed the character we all think she is).

Seems like much of what we see leaked on store sites is truth. Kinda makes you wonder, eh?

Which one is Varesh again?
I dont like human pets, they smell. Gonna sell it for sure, and Im not one to sell a pet.
edit-> found the wiki link above-> so Varesh is the female dervish on the CE box?
Why does Varesh sound like a man, while Morgahn sounds like a girl?

Yes, this CE is packed, I just hope they're still in stock for the next two days so I can pre-order with a bonus pack.

1st Off, If you look at the art on the CE Box and the picture at the bgeining if this thread, we see the Person on the CE box weilding a Scythe.
Secondly it would only make Sense the the MiniPet is a Woman, I mean Shiro and Rurick are males.
