ArenaNet:Guild Wars 2 suggestions/"The Possessed" as Enemies

THE POSSESED

I'm not sure exactly what type of enemy this race was supposed to be, but it looks like they really worked hard before abandoning this one. I think they'd make spectacular enemies for a jungle or a watery underground environment. It would be interesting if they had attacks that actually possesed player-characters and caused them to attack each other. As far as background goes, they don't look so much connected to the dragon as they look remminicent of the dark gods (Abaddon, Duuhm, and Menzies; possibly others) and the Titans. Thier story line could follow what Duuhm and Menzies have been up to for the past 250 years or envolve the Founery of Failed Creations once again. Then again, they could also be humans who have been twisted by the dragons, like the corsairs, but I think that's more of a long shot.


 * Why this is a good idea
 * We'll need enemy races for GW2; why waste good concept art?


 * Why it may not work out
 * May not appeal to all players as enemies
