So, I can’t stop thinking about handsome charrs. I am Asura and proud to be. I just can’t help but to think how cute charr are and how I want to hug and cuttle their soft fur. Do you think it’s romantic? Or do you asura and/or charr think the same? Do you even think a romance is possible.

Me thinks you aren’t looking at charr from a tiny asuran perspective. All teeth and claws and hot breath breathing out flecks of spittle as they rend their enemies limb from limb while towering above you.

So this is the kind of people that lurk around this forum? No wonder I don’t take you folks seriously.
I don’t want to be offensive, but fantasies of romance between childlike midgets and big angry furries seem like the kind of thing you should seek some help for…

But to answer your question, the only way if there would be any attraction between the two is if the Charr took a mortarshell to the head and the Asura suffered from so much radiation his brain went numb… And the charr had big ears…

@Audrixy: It could happen. Most Asura are attracted to brains, and Charr are attracted to strength/ferocity, but it’s a big, wide world out there. Somewhere out there I’m sure there’s a Charr who wants a cute little Asura partner for his very own.

For the record, my male Charr is currently in a relationship with a female human.

If you know anything about the lore, you should know that both of those relationships are near impossible. Please don’t confuse possibility with personal desire…

Asura are ‘childlike’ in height alone.

Please don’t confuse (and I see it a LOT) height with maturity/intelligence/‘childlike status’.

Asura and Charr? Very unlikely, but not 100% impossible. Hell, could be two engineers who are very interested in the other races tech.

Charr and Human? Well that hatred is not anywhere as bad as it was in GW1. Charr in LA live alongside humans just fine. We have several cases where Charr and human Orphans work together and play happily. In LA before the battle we had a charr and human child who gladly went to play games with each other and didn’t think anything about “Oh she’s an evil charr!”

HELL, there is a literal case ingame where a major Ebonhawke scout/siege weapon saboteur and the head siege weapon builder for the Charr siege forces became friends immediately after the cease fire was called, and still are friends.

YES, charr-human relationship is out there and definitely would be looked down upon in certain areas (DR, BC, Ebonhawke, a few others)… but I don’t see it as impossible.

Charrs aren’t purring fur ball !
You try to hug a Charr, he scratch and howl back.
Asura like intelligence, big forehead, big ears, small size, huge head. Charr don’t look like small feline teddy with huge head.
Charr like their partner tall, strong, ferocious. What an Asura is not !

You will never see a Charr and an Asura hugging together except in lore-out fan mind.
I’m a fan of these two races, and a romantic relationship between an Asura and Charr is like a sign of the Apocalypse (the death of the game).

Any Asura, including the dumbest is way more intelligent than every non-Asura and while talking to them will have the same feeling than when you talk to someone with a “syndromic intellectual disability”. Asura are short and lack of physical strength while compared to others races.

Charr are the tallest playable race (but their hunched posture make them shorter than Norn). Every Charr is a killing-machine, the puniest Charr is physically as strong as an human fighter. They are living swiss army knife. Claws, teeth, horns, balancing tail, four ears.

It’s as stupid as if IRL a human bodybuilder marry with a 3 feet martian floating brain that can make a teleporter out of a microwave oven just because he has basic martian knowledge like are multiplication tables for a human. They would have sooooooo many common activities and soooooo interesting discussions.

Charrs and Asuras can have different tastes like fur pattern, eyes color, voice pitch, size, fat, muscle, intellect, horns/ears shape… But you’ll never see one whose tastes is the complete opposite of what millenia of evolution have put in their DNA and primitive brains.

With your logic, why not a Human in love with a Skritt ? Or a Centaur and a Quaggan ?

Societies have tendencies. But those tendancies don’t dictate a cookie cutter personality for every individual. That’s like saying “Westside Story” or “Romeo and Juliett” could never happen because of the tendacy views of the two subculters in the musical and play.

In the case of a Charr and an Asura, they can’t find each other attractive.

They can. We see inter species attraction smattered throughout the game. This idea that only humans can deviate from their societal norms is flawed.

edit: We also so societal norms deviated from throughout the game. Both from asura and from charr.

Before DNA confirmed that all RL humans were all the same species, it was commonly thought that they were different. There was still mixed relationships from members of societies that placed import on aspects that the member of another society didn’t. Societal views matter less than the circumstances individuals are living in. Especially if those individuals are removed from the greater society.

I never said that interspecies relationship isn’t possible. I said that Asura/Charr romance is impossible. Norn/Charr or Norn/Human is possible, but not Asura/Charr.

There are racial combinations that arent possible.
An Asura can’t be attracted by a non-Asura except by gravity (joke time !).
A Charr can’t be attracted by a Sylvari or an Asura.
A Norn or a Human can’t be attracted by an Asura.

Show us how it is impossible. The societal tendancies of asura is to look down on other species and to value intelligence. we see that both of these things aren’t hard truths in every member of the society.

We see that charr while valuing war and the farar also deviate from this. What evidence is there that any of those interests is impossible?

edit: Basically, you’ve narrowed each specicies into one personality each. The charr a steriotypical body builder marrying an asura, a martian genius and the two have nothing to talk about. You fail to accept that the charr and the asura are also individuals with their individual personalities.

We can’t base possibilities on general societal norms that are clearly guidelines that have plenty of confirmed exceptions.

I’ve included any variations like from warrior to mesmer and it’s impossible. By impossible, I mean that the probability that it happen is infinitesimal. There are more chances that Queen Jennah marry with Smodur the Unflinching than an Asura and a Charr could be in love.

The smartest Charr is like an intellectually deficient people even for the dumbest Asura ever. They can’t share anything because it’s too simple to interest the Asura or too complicated for the Charr. It be like talking quantum mechanisms to a peasant from the VI century.

The flaw is on your side, you assume that they are human-like inside with a wide range of body type known as “species”. It’s not how it work. How could an Asura and Charr fall in love ?

The smartest charr is not intellectually deficient to the asura. In fact, in the black citadel near the tanks, the asura NPC can’t comprehend how the charr tech works without the use of magic.

Then you base personality on profession. But we see that the same proffessions vary from individual to individual.

Then you imply that smart people can’t form relationships with … uneducated people. RL humanity shows this is completely untrue. Pocahontas, are woman from a primitive tribe of Native Americans marries John Smith. Even though the Caucasian features were generally considered “ugly” by Native American standards. And even though she had none of the education or breeding that many of John Smiths other options would have offered.

So, I’ll answer your question as to how it could happen. Two personalities are thrown together through a combination of circumstances and personal choices. They become friends (as is directly shown possible) and later that friendship developes into a romantic interest. Even if one of them is considered “not as smart” we see in the PS that an asura is able to over look this for romantic interest. We also see in Tybalt that a charr is able to appreciate the physical form of another species in contrast to their thousands of years of evolution.

If you only think people can connect on an intellectual level in order to fall in love you’re wrong. They may well connect on an emotional level. that’s really all that’s needed. And both species are capable of connecting on comparable emotional levels as the lore has shown us. it’s not an assumption on my part. We see it in the books.

Because Asura don’t learn technology. The Asura is smart, but he know nothing about technology. Asuran technomagic have nothing to do with technology.

You assume that I classify Charrs by their profession. I said “from warrior to mesmer” because they’re opposite. But if you can’t understand what a variety range is, I’ll not loose more time with you…

And “emotional connection” or “intellectual connection” is not something that make people fell in love. It’s what make them appreciate the other. Zojja isn’t Rytlock mate you know ? Even in Disney movies they don’t make ridiculous interspecies pairing…

If “friendship” next step is “love”, I would be in love with dozen of people…

I hate to get into edgier real life topics, but there are real life people who fall in love with creatures (or even objects) that aren’t human. Suppose we have a Charr or Asura who, whether due to birth/cultural circumstances, physical brain trauma, or a magical accident, finds themselves attracted to different species. Can you also rule out this scenario never occurring?

As to size issues, there are alchemical/magical solutions if the partners are determined enough to overcome the problem. (For instance, there’s an event in Harathi Hinterlands where you help Fen the Giant gather special mushrooms that lets him brew a potion that shrinks him down so he can enter a cave.)

Many romances start off as friendships.

Again, you disregard the fact you may have two engineers who are truly interested in the other races tech, and thus form a friendship then relationship because of that. It’s entirely possible.

Also… Asura “magitech” is technology. It’s not the same as Charr tech, but it’s still tech.

Asura magitech isn’t technology. Charrs use cog, pump, etc. Asura use crystals and “anything”. Golems are just stone blocks with magically programmed crystals.

Also, you could be the most intelligent people in the world, if you don’t know what is a cog, it’ll be harder to understand how mechanisms work.

I’ve never said that it “revolve around an intellectual connection”. I said that the gap is too wide. Do you understand the subtelty ?

And for “extremly special case”. Yea if you want to see an atrophied dwarf Charr with a lobotomised Asura in love, do as you wish…
But with all the “if” needed, Jennah could became Jormag’s mate too.

A shrinking / growth potion ? That should reduce the rate of accidental injuries during recreation session. The size ratio as shown below is just the right fit. (Picture courtesy of another deviant unique Asura.)

I guess the only issue left is prejudice from both races .. but I believe that can be resolved with the Asuras by yelling “FOR SCIENCE!”

Again, you aren’t really providing any evidence of your claims about how truly impossible it would be. We see many personalities for Charr ingame, from loving baking COOKIES and PARTYING (Engineer ally in personal story if you pick her) to loving apples and jokes(Tybalt), to being very serious and taking situations that could endanger the local area with a effective response (Rytlock)

We have an Asura who doesn’t care about science, wanting to sell baked goods/flowers in DR and that’s it. Another which is friendly and helpful. Another who freaking uses a hologram (with voice booster) to announce at pit fights (and NOT anything else sciency)… to Zojja who is angry, harsh, unforgiving, and who goes absolutely crazy if you mention somebody using Snaffs work.

Why can’t we have two engineers teaching each other about the way both races technology works form a friendship, then a relationship? You’ve yet to disprove that.

If your hear says charr then do not let the other asura or char stop you.
