Who is your favorite npc and why?
Shiro.
The old fortuneteller
Count zu Heltzer
Dinky.
Yay another person that loves Sieran <3
Honestly been tired of everyone being all about Tybalt.
I love Sieran because she is what I really expected from sylvari. She loved adventure, loved the world, so curious and happy… a bit careless. I felt more pain for her than Tybalt and Forgal, because she unlike those 2 were so young, almost like a child and had this pure innocense and a wonderful desire to see the world.. now she never will :ยด(
Now if I had not been driven mad by all the Tybalt this and Tybalt that and Tybalt everywhere leaving no love left to any other (notably Sieran) I really liked him too, he was an interesting character I will give people that (even though it was rather ruined for me because no one knows how to shut up about spoilers)
I also loved Dinky, the oldest friend of my charr, he is not the brightest around, surely, but he is a loyal friend and he means well. I actually loved talking to him in the missions he was with me in. Loved his Ink Quest comment :P I am however a suspsion that he is the reason I never see my warband again… placing him in charge might not been the best idea… even if he is a good soldier.
I really liked Tonn too (Asura you meet if choosing the fear of leeting someone innocent die when the pale tree asks your greatest fear)
Then I like both Quinn and Faren, they are ridiculous and you gotta love their silliness.
And hate me if you must, but I like Trahearne and don’t get why people hate him so much, but this was not going to be about him so I will leave it at that.
I like all of the Destiny Edge folk, but mostly Caithe (I am sylvari main afterall).
Now for villains, that you would obviously not be friends with, but kinda like in the way they are written and stuff. (Like the Joker from Batman is pretty insane, everyone loves him, but I am just gonna assume I would kittenting my pants if he were real and lived near me) I quite like Faolain, can’t think of others tbh.
I think tybalt left me with strongest impression.
still in the process of playing more pre-trahearne storyline though.
Countess Anise, because she’s hot
My two favorites are Countess Anise, and Sieran.
Siera is fun loving, outgoing, and just happy.
Anise is mysterious, seductive, and dedicated, yet sweet.
I think tybalt left me with strongest impression.
still in the process of playing more pre-trahearne storyline though.
I don’t really like Tybalt the further I get from having played alongside him. He’s a Lightbringer and yet the first mission you handle with him is something which doesn’t make use of his strengths. Instead, it pretty much makes him a loadstone wrapped around your neck and pulling you into stupid positions.
Yes, the amusement is there and it’s entertaining. But it shouldn’t have happened and it raises questions about how effective the Order of Whispers can be if they overlook sending someone without field experience to train someone with arguably much much more covert training. (Ash Legion charr for example.)
Forgal on the other hand, I enjoyed for basically going “sure, you’re a big hero but we have a system in the Vigil and you’re going to work inside it rather than run off and do your own thing”. I bought him a lot more as your instructor and companion.
. . . and Sieran makes me think maybe the Priory needs to screen its recruitment better and tell some people “no”.
However, my most favorite NPC so far in GW2 really is going to fall to either Braham or Rox. Mostly for being actually useful, and entertaining, and having story/lore which doesn’t make me go “wait, what?” more often than “well that makes sense”.
My most favorite NPC in the entire franchise? Still Nicholas Sanford.
