Sylvari week continues and today ArenaNet released a video with Continuity & Lore Designer Ree Soesbe who takes a look at the unique background story of the sylvari, how the race has grown over the years from the initial designs and where it’s heading in the future.
Four years ago, the Guild Wars 2 writers and designers came to the artists with a crazy direction for a new race. They are a brand new species to Tyria—less than 25 years old—innocent to the world, they nevertheless possess a collective wisdom. They have a certain noble quality, incorporating Arthurian chivalry as well as all the secrets that the darker places may reveal. They are mysterious. They are unusual. They are unique. They are the sylvari.
