A story would be good:) Better yet, has anyone noticed her golem sounds like one of those turrets from Portal ? :P
i have yet to see her talk to her golem, or see the golem talk. maybe i should sit next to her for a while.

I’m sure there’s a flame legion charr somewhere baking some fine human ribs.
There’s books of the Flame Legion, I think in Sunken Halls of Clarent on the hill, one of which is something along the lines of “A hundred ways to cook human.”
Er . . . I never did ask what meat they were using in that stew of theirs. Hmmm. Excuse me, I need to have a talk with some Ash Legion.
Modern charr – sans possibly Flame Legion – don’t eat sentient beings anymore.
Dear ANet writers,
Stop treating GW2 as a single story. Each Season and expansion should be their own story.

You can’t talk to her golem, BUT, in Marionette event fight in lane 1 and you will hear her!
i said see (or hear, i guess) her talking to the golem :P
only heard her talking from inside it.

If you believe that, I have some prime farmland to sell you. Of course, there may possibly be a minor issue with centaurs . . .

I always assumed that the claims that they ate humans to begin with was propaganda – the charr leader telling the tale of Stormcaller to the cubs on the Perimeter Loop of the Black Citadel claims exactly the same thing about the humans, which
- Tells us that charr are repulsed by the idea of humans eating charr (and so, presumably, are repulsed by the idea of charr eating humans), and
- Reminds us that claims of cannibalism (or whatever you’d call it, since humans and charr aren’t the same species) should be taken with a grain of salt.

Not unlikely. But do keep in mind that as I said, you can find a Flame Legion cook book on how to cook humans. And then there’s:
“I spied some Charr a few days ago dragging a sack into their cooking tent. A wriggling, talking sack. What do you make of that?”

A charr-loving human might say it’s obvious lies from a pathological liar like Vael.
I say it’s more evidence you can’t trust him if he wouldn’t even try to go for a mercy kill on the thing in the sack.

That she’s Omadd’s daughter.
This isn’t a serious reply, more of a random thought. What if she’s the daughter of Zojja and Kudu?
On that note it entirely possible she Councillor Yahk’s daughter and Zojja attempting to guide the young asura away from the Inquest line of thought.

I did say it was a random thought. Also that could be one of the reasons she hates Kudu so much. Honestly I’m surprise someone took it serious I was expecting the response, if any, to be that this is a serious discussion and such nonsensical replies aren’t allowed.

well the devs kinda made it sound like it’s a big deal to her character that she’s orphan, sooooooo that’s why it’s being discussed in the first place.

Exactly

Well then there only two ways I see this being important to the plot.
The first is Scarlet unintentionally, or intentionally, rescued her in the past leading to her interest in the Sylvari.
Or
During her stay at Rata Sum Scarlet acted like a surrogate mother to the orphan Asura.
Of course there are countless other ways this can be important that I’m just not seeing.

and zojja’s the mother. she was pregnant when they fought kralkatorrik.
they grow so fast :,D
LegendaryMythril/Zihark Darshell
You can get a fair bit of her back story from Taimi herself in EotM. The golem makes a lot more sense now. Taimi is becoming one of the best written characters in the Living Story.
probably because she arrived right when the writers took control of the characters :P
but yes, i sat there for a good while, she gives a lot of exposition both on herself and leylines, surprisingly.
apparently leylines are somewhat common knowledge among casters, because marjory and kasmeer seemed well versed in it, and even braham had a rough understanding of how they worked.
LegendaryMythril/Zihark Darshell
I had no intention of setting one foot onto the new pvp map to get the scattered pieces of Taimi’s golem. None….
But then I learn that her legs don’t work and spend the next hour getting it. Curse you ANET, I can’t leave her like that.
some men aren’t looking for anything logical…
some men just want to watch the world burn.
Who was writing the characters prior to now?
the writers write dialogue, but scripting was up to content designers. this led to a lot of story being pushed to the background so gameplay content could be done. at some point, the designers taught the writing team how to script, so now the writers can just add all the text walls they wanted by themselves, instead of having to ask a content designer to do it between tasks.
that’s my understanding of it.
in other words, the writers are able to push more story into the releases without affecting the gameplay density much. hence all those dialogue branches and voiced dialogues that pop if you just sit around.

She does not get to go anywhere near Scarlet until I finish “borrowing” a charr wood chipper.
