Then did Balthazar, god of war and fire, appear to the soldiers, carrying with him a grand sword that did glow with such brilliance it blinded any who looked upon it. When he spoke, His voice was like thunder, and it shook the ground with force. Then saith He, "Lift up thy weapons. For you are my soldiers, and must you be steadfast, strong, and brave of heart. They who neither hesitate nor stumble shall be rewarded. Then shall you have glory. Then shall your deeds be remembered for eternity." And then did release from His sword a hundred thousand flames, which encircled the soldiers. For this was the fire of courage, and forthwith did they follow the god into battle without fear or hesitation. Thence was the enemy struck down. Scriptures of Balthazar: 48 BE And it was, that a stranger came to the village of Wren seeking shelter and employment. Though young in years, her body was stooped and twisted, her flesh eaten by disease. "Ye have the mark of plague upon ye," said the citizen named Gallrick. "Leave this place lest you sicken our people." "I've lost my family and my home," cried the desperate woman. "Have you no heart?" Yet each person, in turn, did look away. Then from the crowd came a young woman, Sara. She looked upon the woman with pity. "If you need help," said Sara, "I will give it." And Sara did approach the gnarled, bent woman and did offer her a helping hand. Then the sickened woman pulled from her body the robes of plague, revealing Herself to be the goddess Lyssa. The people of Wren fell to their knees, begging Lyssa's mercy. But lifting Sara gently, saith She, "True beauty is measured not by appearance but by actions and deeds. Many have eyes, but few have seen. Of all here, you saw the beauty behind the illusion. And you alone shall be blessed with My gifts." Scriptures of Lyssa: 45 BE A Warm Welcome! Hello and welcome to my user page. I've been using the GuildWiki for an enormous stretch of time but have never gotten around to creating a space here or contributing. I thought it was more than time to change that. Me and GuildWars I've played GuildWars since it's open beta, yet sadly have not accomplished 'much' in terms of titles or phat lewtz. Indeed I've spent the bulk of my time enjoying the small details that have been poured into the game and especially the environments. Ironically despite my love of the environments I do *not* have any maxed cartographer titles.. (Though I am 97% done with Tyria!) My Characters My main character was for many years a mesmer, following the will of Lyssa and hailing from that damned city of Ascalon. From the lowliest beginnings of hauling apples and various other fruits from Fort Ranik to the surrounding outlands, Kirin Savras grew to immense power. All of this growth culminated in the proud foundation and leadership for at least two years of the Rock Guardians guild. After reaching a ripe age and having lived a luxurious life of adventure, the venerable Kirin retired to a small cottage somewhere within the greater reconstructed remenants of Ascalon. In Kirin's wake I decided to take a change of pace and created a Dervish, whom I vowed would be loyal to the teachings of Balthazar himself. Unlike the ponderous and sharp tongued Kirin, this upstart Dervish known only as the Auspicious Avatar if full of fire and desire to prove himself. He fights relentlessly to conquer and vanquish all that lays before him. He seeks endlessly to devour all the achievements possible in one adventurers life. To this day he focuses his efforts in his homeland of Istan, where he serves as a Spearmarshal. His campaign to conquer and unite the small outposts of Istan is almost at an end and already plans are being drawn to look toward Kourna in the wake of the defeat of Abaddon and the Ascension of Kormir. What the future holds is altogether.. uncertain. User page, element templates scavenged from Alien. Thanks so much!
