Guild Wars 2

I understand that there are graves dotted around Tyria but I was wondering if people “new” what happened to these characters.

Gwen:
Vekk:
Odgen:
Dunk:
Jora:
Pyre:
Salma:
Zhedd:

Zhed’s dead, baby.

*knew
The ones that have graves usually have people nearby that tell what they did, or on the grave itself. Someone more knowledgeable than me could fill you in more, but I can say that Ogden is still around, a Magister of the Durmand Priory.

Gwen’s buried in Ebonhawke, the city she founded in 1080 AE atop of an abandoned mining village, having reinforced it and stopped many charr sieges.
Vekk has one or two references in the game but no grave.
Ogden works with the Durmand Priory after being stoned.
Dunkoro was in Elona, so who knows.
Jora… well, all we know about her is that she had kid(s) and her actions as fighting Svanir is well known.
Pyre continued his revolution after a while, beyond that unknown. He already had a child before we met him (as Kasha Scorchrazor was born a year after we met him – during the year of War in Kryta/Hearts of the North/early Winds of Change).
Salma held a long and prosperous life ruling Kryta (how long unknown), having unified Kryta for good in 1088 AE.
Zhed was Elonian so who knows really. Heck, he may even still be living – Ventari was called old in GW1, but lived for another 50+ years and Zhed was a mere teenager (17 iirc). There is a centaur catapult with the same name in a Gendarran Fields event though.

I think the catapult was named zhed as in the British word for Z since the other catapult is called alpha. I agree it was likely a double meaning or something, but that was my take on it.

This option makes more sense, because of the fact that the Zhed we knew didn’t spend much time amongst Tyrian Centaurs, and (unless his story changes) was more willing to work with humans…

As far as Ventari goes, he died in 1180 and was called old in 1072. If an old centaur can still live for a hundred years, Zhed could easily still be in his natural lifespan. Rather he survived Palawa, well, that’s another issue entirely.

Sadly he was killed attempting to set Joko in Fire. Although he did get to see the mummy run around with a few garments ablaze, so he at least got a nice laugh in before dying. “dumb two-legs”

Ask Livia when we see her.

Well…

Zhedd could be amongst the (un)living. I can easily see Joko going out of his way to kill him on principle, and then bringing him back for laughs. lol

Pretty sure Livia will be dead after 250 years..

Infact – I’d like to find her grave, if you know what I mean ;-D

We know for a fact (Sea of Sorrows spoiler) that Livia was alive in 1256 AE. It is believed that as she had lived for an additional 177 years since we saw her last- with no sign of apparent aging, mind- that another 70 is likely no difficulty.

So she could be still alive and kicking somewhere – didn’t sure acquire the staff used to summon undead at the end of EoTN?

Livia never summoned undead (as a plot device). She obtained the Scepter of Orr sometime after Eye of the North – possibly after the War in Kryta too.

We cannot really be certain that the Scepter of Orr allows control of the undead, given how Khilbron already had control over the undead before having the Scepter of Orr (he’s the one who summons undead while having the Scepter, and claims that the Scepter gave him control of them).

Konig Des Todes.2086:

Vekk has one or two references in the game but no grave.

Makes sense given Asura cremate their dead, then disperse their ashes (as Vekk did with his father).

I wouldn’t be surprised if “Zhed” simply happens to be a common centaur name, and they used it as a placeholder for the letter “Z” in that context – similar to “Oscar” and “Romeo” in the NATO radio alphabet.

Livia might still be alive like Aaron Ansari suggests; seeing as she was probably in the vicinity of 200+ years old in 1256, what’s another 70 years or so.

Being in possession of the Scepter of Orr, with unknown powers attributed to it, other than some control of the undead, maybe the wielder also gains immortality while the weapon is in their possession?

It would’ve been very nice to meet Zhed again if/when we return to Elona; could he have survived with his Veldrunners, disrupting Palawa Joko’s current rule of Elona?

Going by what Livia herself said, she’s not in possession of the Scepter of Orr anymore, and she only studied it for a matter of time.

…Whether or not you can trust that information, is another matter onto itself.

Ree Soesbee herself said that Livia only had the Scepter for a short time. So that’s accurate unless they’re going back on that one interview.

Given how all indication is that the wielder of the Scepter can only maniphlate the spiritual, I doubt that it gives eternal youth.
