Guild Wars 2

Finally it is within my grasp! I have acquired the ultimate in treasures!!! It's Guild Wars 2... And I have been waiting in agony for at least a year for its release.

Okay, so that last sentence probably gave away how "hardcore" a fan I am (meaning, hardly at all). To be quite honest I only found out about the game at this amazing expo, rAge, last year. Apparently the real fans have been waiting for YEARS! But it does not mean that I was not waiting in anticipation.

First of all the land is called Tyria. It is a wonderful world filled with strange and wonderful beings. Unfortunately it is under siege of the Elder Dragons and their undead armies. Now all the races must unite and lay aside their petty feuds or else be consumed.

I am Sylvari. A race of plant like sapient beings born of a tree that has become sentient. They learn all they need to live in this world by the dream given to them by the Pale Tree. Unfortunately the dream is in peril, threatened not only by the infamous Nightmare Court (a rogue group of Sylvari who wish to corrupt the dream with Nightmare) but also from Zaithan (the Elder Dragon and beginner of all evil) and his undead army, threatening to destroy all that lives, all that grows. And according to the Sylvari, Everything has the Right to Grow.

My profession is that of a Mesmer. A scholar type known as a trickster and illusionist. My abilities cause chaos. I add random effects that damage my foes and can add random effects that give bonuses to me and my allies. I summon illusions and clones that attack my foes and distract their attention from me. Best part of all, when an illusion or clone shatters, they burst into a storm of butterflies!!! 

This is Me, Elanuin. I am Sylvari, I believe that all deserves a right to grow, I am a Mesmer, I confuse and trick my foes with chaos and illusions, I dreamt of a Wyld Hunt to go and slay a Great Dragon before my people die. This is me and this is my story...
