The Mursaat Rally 2: Mursaat Rights for Guild Wars 2

Hello my friends. I am Kailden Jera, a seasoned player of the entire Guild Wars community and former Leader of the Blade And Rose Guild.

As you may now as of know, last year the player named Quintus Antonious organized an event to show ArenaNet our apreciation for the Mursaat, how much we care about the Mursaats Rights and our clamour of not allowing them to be overcomed by the Asura.

But even so, we are making this celebration happen. Because no matter how evil they are, they proved their worth in Guild Wars lore because they are a living Paradox. They are beyond good and evil for all the right reasons.

And so, in the name of the Mursaat, in partnership with the Lore Forums of the Unofficial Guild Wars Forums and it's ever spetacular Moderators, we want to fight for the rights of the Mursaats to be respected and not allowing them to become extict during the next "two hundred years".

As such here are our Intents:

Sylvari or Asura Debate

Do we want this to be a common sight in the future game Lore Characters? Maybe... But we want the Mursaat! For their incredible charm and Soothing Manical Laughter we must save the Mursaats from their undeserved Doom.

The Fate of Saul

We want the truth about the unseen ones. We want to know their true intents and their reprisal at Guild Wars 2.

The true intentions of the race of the Seers. Their fate and their where abouts.

The truth must be set free!

Become one with the Unseen Ones

We want their blessings and their gifts. We want their power, strenght and magic. We want them to have better roles in Guild Wars 2 rather than just being Foes.

We want to be a Faction joined together for the Mursaat Cause!

That resumes our Intents. And as we are prideful of the cause we stand for I just have one thing to say in the name of the Mursaat loving community.

Pretty please ArenaNet, with sugar, spices and everything nice on top.

Ahem...

The event will be held at April 12th 2008 at 5PM GMT, at the Maguuma Stade International Districts.

Join us brother, in the path of the Unseen.

i don't mind the Mursaat being more around aslong as they keep the silly noises they make when they die

.... could also use them for a laughing emote " ho ho ho ho " ... they sound so robotic XD ... oh if they would become sometime .. a playable race ... it would be awesome to float all around the place :3

Have you considered trying to get this on the front page of guru? It'd be great advertising.

Tomorrow is the day of the event. A goldish color on your armor would be liked, but is not required. Eye of the North did not kill off the Mursaat, it showed their possible survival as a race.

This is my post from the thread on GWO, as I'm one of the organizers of the event.

Try to make sure your armor is gold/yellow similar to last year, if you can't, no worries.

I don't see any reason for White Mantle Badges or Mursaat Tokens, to be quite honest. So if others want to hand those out they can, but of course, it's not necessary.

Do not use the Trade Channel. That will be used for organization purposes such as please be quiet, speech will begin, sit down on the steps, etc.

If you have any armor that you think gives a fanatical feel, that would be excellent. Last year Quintus gave the event a theme of fanaticism.

Don't try convincing me to start earlier. I want everyone that plans on coming or wants to be there, there. I'm not a fan of disappointing people after such a wait.

Fireworks, if you have any, would be excellent to shoot off after or before the speech. Have fun with them.

Last of all, enjoy yourself! This is a game, not a job, this is enthusiasm, not forced presence.:grin:

It isn't clear in this thread, but the rally is also to support the Seers, this is indicated on the wiki page.

I have a transcript of the speeches this year. However, no mursaat turned up. But not to worry, our words will surely be heard. Long live the Mursaat, and may the Krytan Royal family forever fall!

I love the Mursaat too!!!
oh and 1 thing I hope but doubt GW2 will enable is to choose between playing the "good" campaign or the "evil" campaign. with the good having the good races like deldimor dwarves, shining blade, etc while the evil have the Mursaat, Titans, etc.
that would be awsome but it's not going to happen

I took about 100 or so screenshots of the event---from pre-people to one in the LA invasion.

If you want them, I can post some and/or all. Perspective is the ele side and me though---primarily.

was just getting warmed up at the converting thing...
Ah well thank you very much to everyone invovled, even the little elf.

Try to pick out the ones you like or think are the best and post them.

All right, I tried to pick out some of the best.

A follow-up to the Queen's early comment of: "Mad Queen Malafide: Or one of those mass-hug-the-Queen sessions. My delicate necro body cannot take it."

Of course, this was before I knew Grodiuse would be quite so......loud during the event. Generally her reply just was what amused me most of the pre-event proceedings:

This occurred before I knew Daniel Frozenwind was helping. I had just assumed he was starting a dance---so having spoken of the Unseen One's glory--I tried to organize the elementalists unknowingly:

Ele sync after I moved over by Daniel in International:

Attention by multiple-classes during the speech from the Ele corner POV:

Conga!:

Ele Dance in the Secondary American Presentation of the Speeches, plus it held the wonderful compliment of being compared to our Unseen Gods:

Only Decent Prize Picture I got turned out to be my own:

Finally, the one screenshot I had of the Lion's Arch Invasion:

It's also hard to get a division ready, with half of them AFK or just not listening :P

The Queen also appeared in a lot of the photos as well; I'm guessing that's due to the ele division being so close to the necromancers. Probably between these and all the others I didn't post---most people could probably spot themselves at some juncture. It was basically like a slideshow at points---didn't know I took that many. ^^; Especially during speech time.

But yes, I see how it was difficult to get the divisions set-up. Which is why the event was lucky to have such dedicated handlers.

Cool pictures, if only I was in Int dis 1! Oh well, should have got there earlier. Well, looks like a great event. Is there going to be one next year? If so, great! I will nag Anet staff like hell to get Mursaat to raid towns next year.
And by the way, sorry about the abuse on the talk page on the wiki. Im over it now. My fault for not being there earlier.
By the way, I dont see why we had AFKers. Why would you afk in an event? Its onyl good when your in Wintersday or a special event when a hat drops into your inventory, not when yo have to open tarde to recieve a prize. Its a stupid idea.
