4 legs good, 2 legs bad.
Centaurs must be fed.
Humans make the bread.
Asurans are a fad.
Norns like the Mead.
Djinns have brains containing rats.
Nagas are the rats.
Mursaat are monster crack.

Even accepting the fact that the humans are to blame for the Charr war, that doesn't make the Charr "good". Going back to "Are Charr Evil?" thread: Torture, kidnapping and mass slaughter is always protrayed as being bad in Guild Wars. I understand the Charr don't view humans as worthy of respect, but still, that doesn't excuse their actions, it just helps explain them.
Ascalon are noobs. They deserved to phail.

It's their fault they prolonged their defeat

It would depend on the stats and abilities.

Like other RPGs, there are positives and negatives for certain races. Such as, some are stronger, others are more intelligent, some races cannot be certain professions, etc.

If there are no restrictions to professions, attributes, levels, etc. then I'd go with:

Charr, Mersaat, Human as my first 3. Reason? Looks. Charr look really cool, hunched back, beastial, could look cool in tatoo armor.

Mersaats... let's see what is actually behind the mask.

Humans, let's repopulate the species.

My best guess, I'm one of these
^^Ahahaha! Win!


I think I'd be Human first... Just because, and Tengu second because I LOVE the way Talon holds his blade. On top of that I just like they're lore/background and general attitude towards the world.

I'm only buying Guild Wars 2 to become a Charr, I'm kind of disappionted that i spent $195 dollars on this game (campaigns, bonus pack, and EotN) and now they're making a new game.

unless they can transfer, I'm disappionted. But, as I said, I just want to be a Charr, and maybe a Tengu.

For me human First: (Athy's gotta have a daughter right?)
Second: Asura ( Vekks my favorite GWEN hero take him everywhere regardless of who I'm playing at the time).
Third: Either Sylvari or Norn ( don't know too much about the Sylvari yet other than what we're read).
Fourth: Charr (just for something different).

Probably Human to start out with, then charr. I just think if my ancestor was a charr he would wonder how his great-relative was a human.

Sylvari.

I love their 'logical thinking' concept. Like Data or Spok in Start Trek.
And I also like the 'plan being' idea, like in Gin-iro no Kami no Agito.

1)a human monk for sure.

What did you say Charr warrior? You blew up my home? No heals for you!

2)Murssat

Though it will in all likelihood not be playable in GW2

3)a charmable pet

(preferably a dune lizard)
