If this is out of game, I would be interested in participating.
'Ristaron' (the character) is a follower of Melandru, my IGN is Lord Ristaron.
If this is for in-game, I don't think I shall participate, though, so please clear that point up.

This dates back all the way before the first seed of the first tree was sprouted in the new land of Tyria. Where battles raged across the land as each of the gods fought each other for total domination. Balthazar, the powerful, attacked Dwaynas servants of the light. Grenth attacked Lyssa with all the minions. And Melandru just attacked them all from above. The battle raged for many days and nights. Months went by, and soon years went by. Finally the last day of the battle came upon them. "Warrior flank them!!" said balthazar. "Yes'm lord." said The Knight of Dark. He was one of the very few warriors left alive who could fight off 3 groups of enemies with a skill he uncovered. He called it The Hundred Blades. He ran behind the followers of melandru and dwayna and started to attack. Balthazar sent some others so they were trapped. As they fell he started to have confidence. "Now take out the rangers pinning us down. We make for the god Lyssa!" said balthazar. Dark did so as he rushed up the mountain and used his sword in one hand and axe in the other. He jumped up and the rangers all shot at him but he was to quit. He yelled ENDURE PAIN! and at once all of the attacks were nothing. He rushed and killed the rangers and saw the god melandru. She sprouted melandrus stalkers everywhere and he put his sword through the ground. An inferno lept out and all of the stalkers fell to their demise. Balthazar saw this oppurtunity and swung at melandru forcing her to return to the rifts as she watched the battle. "Good job with the distraction warriors" said balthazar. "Thanks M'lord. They pushed on and found dwayna in a battle against lyssa. Balthazar muttered something dark did not catch. Dark rushed in and started to kill mesmers and monks everywhere. Balthazar took the chance and sent dwayna and Lyssa back to the rifts. Balthazar swung behind him and got grenth. Grenth fell down and was sent back to the rifts. "Well done warrior!" Balthazar said. "But I am afraid that you are exiled." balthazar finished. "What?" Dark said but it was too late. Balthazar stabbed dark through the heart. Dark awoke in a dark and misty place. He was not a ghost, or yet a zombie. But just as he was when he left. "Welcome my child...." an evil voice said. "Who are you..." said dark. "I am the god Grenth.....and I feel anger in your soul....tell me my child. Why are you angry..." grenth said. "Did you not see for yourself? Balthazar betrayed me!" dark said angrily. "Well if revenge is what you want....than become my follower. I shall teach you the ways of the dead.....and you can train an army to kill the one you seek...." grenth said. "How long will this take...." dark said hesitantly. "It will take 10,000 years..." grenth finished. "So be it....." he said as he kneeled to the god grenth.

Hm... for continuity purposes, my character cannot be in this due to it being so far in the past. Ristaron was born roughly 850 AE. (Yes, he's about 220 years old by the end of the Guild Wars.)

However, may I substitute another character? Noriam Grayblade, a ranger who lived centuries before the Guild Wars, was the role model for my character (my character's hero). He was a follower of Melandru... one of the first to ascend under her guidance.

In any case, Noriam is the character I'll be using for this roleplay.






And I have a friendly critisism: if the war has been waging for months, Balthazar and one servant would not be able to just up and defeat all other Gods...

<We interrupt this broadcast for an input of Crow's two cents>

Firstly, I find the fact that anyone allows someone else to run about, using their thoughts and creation, is completely and udderly absurd, however, there are many that do so, unfortunately. Secondly, these characters were created in a time after the Guild Wars, why put them in a story that takes place centuries before, when they weren't even thought of?

This is why I changed which character I was going to play. Ristaron wasn't born until the 800's, but Noriam was one of the first people to ascend. Ever. I.E. Before the Elonians tried.

However, I may withdraw if it continues that warriors are as rediculously overpowered as the only roleplay post so far has portrayed them. Not intending to be harsh, but when Balthazar can defeat all the other gods so easily it lends the image of warriors completely dominating a battlefield... something that seems quite one-dimensional to me.

Balthazar has a secret source of power that you will uncover later in the story so u find out ok? and this battle took back a long time ago and now its 10,000 years later right after the guild wars. And it doesnt favor warriors but the prolouge did.

Oh, the time we're roleplaying in is 1070ish AE? I can use Ristaron, then.

I still have a question: if it was 10,000 years before the Guild Wars, why are there humans in the battle?
If you read the guild wars manuscripts, you'll see that humans appeared in Tyria in 205 BE. And they weren't anywhere else before then according to the way it's said in the Manuscripts.
And if you read the different inscriptions for the Gods (go to ToA for the best place for it), you'll see that they didn't seem to get followers until around that time. Look at Grenth's for solid support of my point.
Unless everyone in that battle was either a god or an avatar, there's no way it could have happened.

Well, there is a way, but it's complicated. All of them would have had to go through the mists. Since there are places where time moves forward, and places where time moves back (and the rift, where time doesn't move at all), it would be possible for all the armies to have entered and gone back in time to this incredible battle 10,000 years ago.
That would mean that all of the soldiers were from the future of Tyria, as currently (1072 AE) there are very few gates into the mists, and fewer of them are known. All of the ones that are known are fiercely defended.

Excuse me poking holes in your story, I just want to make sure it's a solid story before we start.

All these army guys are the souls of people awakened by the gods to come into the battle. After awhile the souls will develop and become into bodies. So ya. They didnt get followers for awhile but these are just incarnations.
