Guild Wars 2

I keep looking for this thread, I’m sure it must exist, where is it? Sure some people like them better as a pal-mance, but you have to admit that whole jealousy dialogue over her wanting to join the famous warband would have read romantic if they weren’t different species. And a Norn and a Charr, why not? They’re both large.

I like them better as best friends.
I think Braham is way too immature, which caused the jealousy dialogue. Note, jealousy doesn’t imply attraction. To me, Braham just didn’t want to lose his best pal.
I’m not saying that it can’t happen. They are both available, after all, and Braham deserves something better after that selfish, material, ungrateful monster of a woman left him like that. Ugh, I hate Otillia. I would be so happy to casually find out that she was eaten by a bear or a pack of wolves, or maybe trampled by a dolyak… I almost lost track of what I was saying while bashing Otillia.
ehem
Anyway, it can happen, but I don’t ship them. I think that Rox is frequently mothering Braham, since he is so immature. I mean, he should understand how important it is for a gladium to be accepted in a new warband. But no, he only thinks of himself. What a brat. I love him, but still.

I agree that it’s more a case of them being very close friends than true romantic attraction (in Braham’s case, he lost his father when he was young, his mother was always distant, lots of his friends died during the Molten Alliance assault on Cragstead, and then he got his heart broken by Ottilia, so it’s kinda understandable he’s freaking out over the thought of losing yet another close friend).

That said, I wouldn’t be upset if it became something more.

If your best friend was from, say, another country with a very different culture than yours and would suddenly ditch you entirely for something you don’t believe is important, wouldn’t you get upset?

^^This^^

To me anyway, it seems to be a bromance with a conflict of cultures at the moment.

The Norn culture puts heavy emphasis on individualism and the building of one’s own legend. This is in conflict with the Charr’s culture that puts heavy emphasis on warbands, since Charr find their place in society through them.

After having lost her own warband and becoming a gladium, Rox has been trying everything to get into Rytlock’s Stone warband, so she can find her place back in the Charr community. Braham doesn’t understand any of this, since he views her as an excellent fighter as she is, and he thinks she doesn’t need to be apart of a group of people she doesn’t even now to find a place in the world.

Oh those two…
Enough with chitty chatty friendship, give us the Norn-Charr hybrid and let him be the first Guardian-Ranger of the game, unlocking double professions for us all XD

Interspecies coupling can’t produce children in GW.

Couldn’t.

Remember how Scarlet’s been all about mixing A with B? And how everyone in LA has been breathing in air that she’s tainted with some strange “toxin”?

Well, of those that get a good dose of it, about 50% die from it. (Source is an NPC healer near Vigil Keep.) But what if what’s killing them is the toxin trying to adjust them so that they can be more easily “mixed” with other races? What if she’s trying to play god and remake Tyria on more than one front at a time?

Rox and Braham have both been in LA after the attack, by the way.
