How Tall Is Our Gods?
Abaddon was pretty tall in GW1 so I believe the other gods may be too.
Not sure. I know Abaddon (a former god) in GW1 appeared huge. However, Khormir was an average human once, and Grenth was a demigod. I’d imagine their height is a matter of preferance similar to King Thorn.

I think it depends.
Kormir is probably around the same size, considering she was originally just a human in GW: Nightfall.
Abaddons head alone is way bigger than any human in Nightfall.
aaand i cant think of anything else.

who is Kormir again?
R.I.P Kumu <3
who is Kormir again?
Komir, Elonian woman of Guild Wars 1, Nightfall expansion, who in the battle with Abbandon, sacrificed herself, but in turn, absorbed his power and was reborn as the new God of Secrets. (Is it Secrets? I believe that’s what she called herself, I could be wrong)

God of Truth, preserved in secrets. Abaddon and Kormir are the only ones that could have theoretical known dimensions but they’re (demi)gods so it’s just subjective. The Avatars of the gods (skills in gw1) were only slightly taller than Norns/Charr today but again, the size of a god can’t be determined by mortal means.

The kitten that body blocked you the whole way through the realm of torment before stealing all the credit.
who is Kormir again?
She was an Elonian woman who became a god and is one of the gods of gw2. This video give a quick 3 minute run through on how she did it. Basically she was the Traehearn of Nightfall.

who is Kormir again?
The greedy one who stole Abaddon’s power after we, the players, did everything for her while she sat back and barked orders. And then she had the audacity to say we could do what we like now that Abaddon’s gone. That’s the pot calling the kettle black.
Tbh it would be epic if Abaddon returned to GW2. Would be good to stir up a bit of chaos. I say down with Kormir!!!
Forever a supporter of more male skimpy armor
Dwayna, on Tyria is represented as a young girl
Melandru, a druid spirit
Balthazar, a humanesqe Warrior
Grenth, a reaper
Lyssa, a two faced woman.
Kormir was human, same size
Hope these help

Malchor has supposedly seen (and loves) Dwayna, and sculpted her as a winged deity.
No one has a clue what Melandru looks like.
Again, no one has a clue. I mean, we sculpt him as a armored warrior but that could be just to symbolise him as a war god.
Grenth yep.
Wasn’t Lyssa actually a pair of twins?

Plot of LS S2: Trehearne: ’I’m actually Kormir’
Dhuum was only about two times the size of another adult, so he is about the size of a norn.
On the other hand, abaddon was HUGE.
For Dwayna, we can assume she looks like the statue malchor made of her, since malchor tried to make an exact copy.
As gods, they may not have a ‘true size’. May just be however tall they choose to appear to us at any given time. There may still be a limit to how tall they can be since they aren’t omnipotent but they may not have a true size as gods. Even calypso in Pirates may not have had a true size.
Their size varied. Both Dwayna and Lyssa appeared before humans in normal human sizes (under illusions mind you). Abaddon was huge while Kormir normal human size when we saw her as a god, and Dhuum was about Risen Giganticus Lupicus size. Balthazar and Grenth are also depicted as very big in their scriptures, Iirc.
It seems to me that they could change their sizes at will, but their “natural” size was gigantic. Arab was built for them so the giant doorways that the Giganticus Lupicus is a few heads from hitting the top of is probably the best measurement for natural god size.
Dear ANet writers,
Stop treating GW2 as a single story. Each Season and expansion should be their own story.

Malchor saw all and made statues of all (except Kormir, but there seems to be an Abaddon statue in the temple of the forgotten god – personal story).
Slow clap for the great puppet player.

Trahearne doesn’t steal credit. Neither did Kormir, just the godhood. Which if players had gotten it would’ve thrown the entire story into a bad loop. Expansions would be hard to pull off (Because they are a god. And if the person goes into it without playing nightfall, how the hell did they become god like?) and 250 years later, GW2, how do you have the god when a player character became it? You either make a random npc to take the spot and have a description, or have it be so vague nothing is known about them besides they exist…

See above.
Also, Abaddon is dead and gone forever. It’s why the gods withdrew, it was the final thing keeping them around and actively interacting with mortals.
A few things across the comments:
Dwayna, Melandru and Blathazar all have wings (both in sculpture and representation), Dhuum and Grenth have shadowy green tentacle “wing like” thingys which make their “cloth/cloak” float around; tho for grenth it are a bit more ghastly skeletal green wings as seen from mural of Grenth (http://i109.photobucket.com/albums/n61/Knight_of_Eonia/Lets%20Play/34.jpg and http://www.sold-guild.com/sold/media/articles/guildwarsgods/pantheon_mural_grenth_ad.jpg)
Dhuum wasnt even at a tenth of his strength when we fought him in the underworld (tho even at that power level he strong enough to kittenslap everyone in there because of Grenths absence) AND based on most encounters in gw, active lore power level does translate to scale, thus his more accurate size (and for all gods) would be the hall of judgement (where they didnt collapse).
Personal estimate would be between the height of jade maws maw and shadow behemoth, just because both cities/locations where we could judge the size of gods are mostly in ruins/half sunk.
When life gives you lemon, ask if its from a anime or manga.
Uhm, Andele, Balthazar is never shown with wings (I’m guessing you’re mistaking the fur-shouldered cloak in this depiction to be wings?). Grenth is, however. But Dhuum is never depicted and his actual self has no “shadowy green tentacle ‘wing like’ thingys” (nor does he have cloak, really) – and Grenth doesn’t have such either. Of the two links you gave (both being Grenth), the first are wings – the latter just has a cloak. Better images on the wiki: http://wiki.guildwars.com/wiki/File:Grenth_mural.jpg and http://wiki.guildwars.com/wiki/File:Grenth_mural_%28Ascalon%29.jpg
And we can’t say how much of his power Dhuum was at when we fought him, since we don’t know how strong he would be usually.
And I don’t think “lore power level does translate to scale” – while it is true that bosses are scaled larger, this is more so that they can be seen, rather than that they have a stronger ‘lore power level’. I mean, for example, there were champions in the Scarlet invasion that were far bigger than any other champion of the same race (even the charr being larger than Gaheron, or the humans bigger than Mai Trin). But they’re certainly not stronger than the others – it was done so that they could be seen over the huge number of players and skill effects.
