Lets face it, humans in RPGs are usually the most boring race you can have.
When MOX was released I loved the prospect of one more member in my multi-race party. Him being a golem was just icing.
But heck, it isn't all about my personal preference. Having Heroes of different races would allow ANet to easily tell us or hint at the future of these races, through (hopefully interesting) sidequests similar to MOX. And who isn't interested in the future of the Forgotten, Tengu, Dredge, or other major races in Tyria? I know some won't give a toss either way, but it would be nice to find out.(Especially for the Forgotten, lots of hubbub in the Desert in GW2 by the sounds of it, how do they react?)
I know the GW Devs have lots on their plate and something like this is pretty low priority and lots of work, but it would still be pretty nice to see them pay a bit more attention to some of the cool races inhabiting the world.
P.S. The following classes have only humans reps:
Mesmer
Necro
Assassin
Paragon
P.S.S. I'm not sure if these Heroes would be allowed for PvP, for the same reasons MOX isn't - height/bulk in particular.
More non-human Heroes please!

I've been waiting for a Tengu hero ever since heroes were introduced! I know i'm not the only one who'd love to have a Tengu in their party. I could definitely see a Tengu hero being an assassin...
MOX coming out after it being so long since new content made me think it was possible there'd be more new heroes in future but I don't want to get my hopes up...

Non-human paragon....hrm. Not sure that would work very well.
I'd like more non-human heroes so my party doesn't get affected as much by disease all the damn time, and Zhed annoys the ever-loving crap out of me. I guess that's what Vekk is for.

WTB Ghostly Paragon Hero..
My idea is better.

Margonite paragon hero, fits PERfectly to the storyline, because the margonites want thier freedom.
Most of them do, I think.

There is room for 4 more professions:
Mesmer
Paragon
Assassin
Ritualist
What I see, in profession to species is:
Mesmer: Tengu (Queztal/Avicara) or Forgotten
Paragon: Margonite (I want The Lost!)
Assassin: Dredge
Ritualist: Forgotten or Tengu (Angchu)
Of course Forgotten/Angchu are mutually exclusive.

I am curious as to why the non caster forgotten take on the different form.
http://guildwars.wikia.com/wiki/Forgotten_Champion
http://guildwars.wikia.com/wiki/Forgotten_Avenger
it does say that the species is "Enchanted" that might be it however unlike the enchanted, they leave exploitable corpses.
they are definitely separate from the enchanted bow and enchanted swords.
But i agree that a margonite would make the best paragon. with the wings and all. The margonite should also be lvl 24
just because Ive never seen a margonite less than lvl 24.But having a margonite and a forgotten in your party??? thats a bigger conflict than Gwen and Pyre.
wind fire and ice
forgotten mes
margonite paragon
tengu assassin
and for rit,Razah isnt human really so we have a non-human rit,though he does look like a human so i guess another wouldnt hurt,no clue what it would be though..

On discussion now: Yeah, I've been wanting mroe non-human heroes since Zhed, and Pyre isn't helping any. I'd have a tengu for an assassin, margonite for a paragon, forgotten for a mesmer, and djinn for a ritualist or dervish. Don't know about any others.

well, enchanted spëar as para hero...

/Notsigned as long as we can only use 3 heroes at a time.

I really don't think we need more heroes honestly, given that we can only use three out of the huge number of them we already have...

Same goes all the way arround.
For each profession, there should be:
- 1 human male
- 1 human female
- 1 non-human.
So, what's left?
- Human female Warrior.
- Human female elementalist.
- Forgotten One Mesmer.
- Dredge Ritualist. They are a short-sighted race, almost blind. Blind fits ritualist.
- Tengu Assassin. Sharp claws.
- Undead or Margonite Paragon.
With that, we'll get 1 hero for each non-primary attribute of every profession, and it would be perfect then.

Well he would obviously be a rebellious "forgotten?" that got kicked out of Caster Academy for shouting and throwing sticks at the other students. He then was forced to join up with humans to prove his worth and that Forgotten can be rough and tough physical characters to.

I can see what your saying Upier (Goddam I want Anton's armour...), but I just thought it would be nice to give the Devs a chance to show us firsthand what could be happening to the other-other races.
Also, it's cool to see that people had the same Margonite idea that I had.

i'll probably catch flak for this, but i think it's good that npc's don't have our armor. it at least brings some originality to them. plus they all come from different backgrounds and such, they have reasons for their armors, it wouldn't really fit for the player to have them. i'm mostly just playing devil's advocate here because i do love the armors and it would be nifty to have them for myself, but i don't mind that we can't.
ot - while non-human heroes would be amazing (margonites, tengu, etc) there are just so many already. there has to be something like 25 now, right? that just seems like so many to begin with. adding more would easily push it to 30 or perhaps 35 or 40, which would be overwhelming to say the least. at least for me.

Jup, but there is no need to add 'much more', just the 'remaining ones'.
Just enough so 2 players can make parties of one profession. Whatever the reason they have: Testing builds, Fooling around, just fun...

Might as well send this suggestion to the GW2 forum because there is no way we are getting anymore heroes for this game, not ever.
MithranArkanere
GW2 will not have the same Hero system. Just a companion system.
Phoenix Tears
when we are at it, give us finally 7 hero parties
