Guild Wars 2

Hello, i was wondering why Asuras have shades of brown and black as a skin colour when on the wiki it states that they normally have greyish skin. Is there a lore reason for this, such as they are from different places such as Humans. Or is it just that they have a tan?

Idk maybe their skin evolved to produce more melanin to adapt to the sunlight hitting them in their new above ground home

^this
back in GW1 they were all pretty grey, but they were also new to the surface
250 years gave them a bit of a tan

I’d also agree with adapting to the sunlight. Take note that their eyes have also changed (smaller pupils), and that even norn have changed due to moving to warmer/bright climates. Most underground races will have lighter skin tones due to the lack of sunlight, so it’s only natural that they’d get darker by being on the surface for a few generations.
