Hello everyone, I’ll make this short and sweet.
Largos are probably the top third most suggested races for play-ability, after Tengu and Kodan. However every time Largos are suggested the idea is often shot down by, “basically sea elves” and I agree, for a game that boasts uniqueness of the world it sometimes fails to deliver and, while I’m sure my idea will be much less unique than the designer’s I think bringing fresh ideas would be nice.
Largos: suicidal, mysterious, assassin sea angels. Essentially all we know about the Largos
So, here are the changes I’m thinking of.
Background changes:
The Largos state that they left the depths of the ocean because of an unknown terror, the terror, for my Largos is a disease. The disease only affects certain Largos, it turns their “hair” white, lower’s their immune system and shortens their lifespan drastically. Those affected are called “Reavers” (no connection with the other Reavers) once diagnosed “Reavers” are given a loving fair well , allowed to return at any time, but most only return when they believe they have completed something worthy. Reavers use a large Quaggan/Largos outpost called Aequor as a home base. You will never see a Largos guard, merchant or soldier. They are usually adventurers, most of time alone. Therefor the city is solely populated with Quaggans.
Physical Changes:
I like the white hair it seems a little generic though. So, my idea is to use some of the old sylvari super spiky hair. Largos hair is thicker than human hair, think every strand as a dreadlock. Largos hair is often dual-color like the longer hair Caithe concept art
Reavers all wear masks and cover all their skin to prevent infection, often with baggy silk with japanese-style patterns and the signature black armor.
I was inspired by the Quarrians a little and I think it’s a little too evident.
Thank you.
