The Marquise of dark arts - she calls upon the dead to fight for her, channels blood energy and is the mistress of poisons.

No way could she look like a cute little barbie, so this is what I went for: a gothic horror doll

The idea of a cute Asura looking like an innocent bunny whilst running around roasting enemies with a flame thrower or firing bullets from a rifle was too tempting to be neglected.

Proud, swift and beautiful - my Khaleesi. Taari whispers to the spirits of the wild and is always accompanied by one of her loyal pets, as well as her sun and stars.

Nothing much to say about Phanta - she'll introduce herself:

So there I am, finally back home from my holiday and able to log the game.
First thing will of course be some character creation - I have been making a plan during holiday as to what race/profession-combos to start with:

Norn Elementalist
Asura Engineer

one of those two will likely become something like my main toon.

Since we have five character slots, I'll also create:

Asura Mesmer
Norn Ranger
Human Necromancer

So today is the official launch of Guild Wars 2 - my hard copy should be arriving home today.
Problem is - I am 2k kilometers away on a holiday and wish as I want, I can't play until I'm back home.

Well - the only thing that remains is following some forums

For the lucky pre-purchasers Tyria will be accessible from ... NOW ...
Enjoy, guys!
