Guild Wars 2

Well, I thought this might be a good idea to lessen the Trahearne hate. Create a dungeon into the Dream to let us see Trahearne’s past, maybe add a conspiracy or secret hints to make it more interesting, so we can actually witness the great feats he accomplished, though this time try not to make him feel so… “Perfect and Bland”. This might help us get a better feeling for Trahearne and why he was chosen to lead the pact or why he’s most fit to lead. Other things that might be cool would be :
-How Trahearne earned the recognition of the 3 Orders of the Pact
-How Trahearne met Sayeh and how he helped
-Trahearne acting the “big brother” to the other Sylvari

Now, by no means do I like Trahearne, but as others have said, he had/has potential as a character and seeing as it is unlikely ANet will drop him, I want to be able to like him more or at least put some depth into his character.
@ANet: Another thing, can you make Trahearne more… charismatic? Just maybe more militaristic or leader-like and feelings and things like a personality?

Anyway, I’m just thinking this will help us cope and accept him more. Ideas or opinions?

We can already determine through inference why the Pact Orders respected Trahearne:

He spent most of his life alone in Orr, surrounded by Undead, and survived. Even if he were a great fighter (which he most certainly is not), this implies significant stealth.

He is Tyria’s foremost scholar on Orr – thus he would have been a natural fit for the Priory, undoubtedly a Magister, if not future Steward.

He possesses valuable knowledge of the Undead and how to fight them – where to find useful fortifications. How to navigate the continent. If this, with a little training, wouldn’t have made him an invaluable tactician to the Vigil, nothing would.

Now, the incident with Sayeh is one of more interest. This could be referenced better but doesn’t necessarily demand new content.

I’m less interested in Trahearne’s PAST than with his FUTURE. If they aren’t going to kill him, they need to develop him.

I think this idea would be a bit tricky to add because as far as I remember Trahearne has a different story depending on what order you choose. Trahearne has a story to explain why he is so valued by each of the 3 orders which you get to know a little about when doing the story quest on claw island (can’t remember the name of the story mission). So unless they was able to come up with a story that didn’t involve any of the 3 orders then it might be hard for them to fit it in around the lore.
