Ok so the first dungeon where you run like hell from destroyers. A couple things in there caught my attention and I want to ask about them.

First one, doesn't resemble any god from what I can tell or any significant figure I can think of. I know there are many new things like this with unknown pictures but I was wondering if it was some previous god.

Second one looks sort of like a dragon, but there's is a light coming from it. Is it the Final mission area where Primordis is? That glow has to be something...

Third one slightly resembles a Norn I think but I cant tell. What do you think?

Fourth one is Grenth. I think. I don't remember seeing another picture like that though. It COULD BE, if it isnt grenth...and im really pulling here, Dhuum since I think there is a good difference between this picture and most Grenth pictures. I figure these caverns are supposed to be really old, it could have been before grenths time....

Fifth and Sixth...I know its a different game....but whats with the Chaos emerald in the middle of the dungeon? My GUESS, is the structure above it reminds me of asuran structures...so maybe its a power crystal for one of their floating box statues with no purpose other then to float and look cool? No idea honestly.

And seventh, I was always wondering why there was only One statue and it is always running, favor or not. Did whoever build these caverns favor melendrue more? It's probably just the way the programmers built it but...I like to think otherwise.

Any ideas?

First one is a slyvari(sp?) or melandru, your interface is mostly in the way so i cant tell. and i really cant be arsed going in there and finding out myself.

The rest imo your just trying to make something big out of something that is little.

This answers all your questions and ideas.
Most of the art on the walls and the different structures are just re-used items and art from all of the Campaigns.

Refering to "jiggles's" post:not sure, but i think it can't be a sylvari, because the sylvari don't exist when u enter the cave...
they exist after u stop the great destroyer, in GW2...

id rather all those by part of lore..it might make that place more interesting than just a place to look at pretty pictures.

Number 4 is early dervish concept art. Dervishes were originally supposed to wield flails, but were changed to scythes.
