Guild Wars 2

To the mysterious Scarlet,

You may be brave enough defacing Queen Jennah’s likeness on a webpage, but do you dare show your presence here in the nest of vipers that is an MMO community forum?

I dare you. Heck, I double dare you.

:)

But seriously, I have to say this is an entertaining way to build up the storyline for the 20th. The poems and gifts sent to gaming sites were a very nice touch as well. I hope the story turns out to be an engaging one. We’ve needed a good, memorable villain and I think there is some real potential here.

To sweeten the pot, the forums offer DoctorOverlord.8620 as a pawn in your dastardly deeds.

I was totally ‘blah’ about this upcoming update until I looked at the Internet today and saw the poem, wind-up watch, and webpage defacement. It really has me thinking… and that is getting me excited!

Oh please ANet… deliver something Earth-shattering, something amazing and awesome that will change the game forever. Something that will make jaws drop and possibly hearts break. I need a REALLY good story! =)

and to Scarlet…. I’m gonna kick your butt!

If you’re looking for an Arenanet dev to post a response pretending to be “Scarlet” I think you might be setting yourself up for dissapointment…

Bah! I am too preoccupied with my own schemes to aid in other’s plans! My intent is to see whether this Scarlet truly warrants the classification of ‘Villainous Mastermind’ or if it is just graffiti and poems. This mystery entity has shown a skilled ability to avoid a charr ranger’s arrows but how will they deal with the venomous barbs of an MMO forum?

@Dan.2940 – Actually I’d be fine with one of the CM’s who has a sense of humor

Scarlet is really Jennah’s emo sister, jealous of her popularity and Logan’s attention for Jennah. Her way of acting out is to write threatening poetry about Jennah, and fan-fiction about Logan. The final conclusion is Rytlock is brought in to baby-sit where they both bond over their feelings for Logan.

Babysit who? Logan or Jennah and Scarlet? If Logan I think it going to end up with Logan annoying Rytlock too far with his obsession with Jennah that he’ll probably chase him around the ring threatening to cut him to ribbons.

So if they are sisters, how do you figure Scarlet being made of leaves?

I’m rooting for you Scarlet! Please rid us of Logan!

And Trahearne!

The idea that Jennah has siblings makes even the fiercest shudder.

I do hope Rytlock and Logan stay nvolved in the story somehow even if Rox and Braham remain the main NPCs companions for our characters.

So if they are sisters, how do you figure Scarlet being made of leaves?

A clever disguise utilizing asuran thaumaepoxy and a trip to the farmer’s market.

One sign of a memorable villain is when they start to spawn fanclubs

To Scarlet:

Can I join your side?

Well, I am German, everybody knows Germans have no sense of humor

I also have no idea who this Scarlet person is that you are talking about * whistle *

Martin ist ein gott!

Snaff is stuck in 1885.
Lion’s Arch was demolished by a 50 foot tall holographic woman.
Queen Jennah is a killer android sent from the future, by Aethernet, to kill Logan Thackeray.
Evil Future Zojja is behind the Steam Mech invasion.
Livia (aka ‘Scarlet’) has come out of hiding and raised Orr to use Zhaitan as a tool to stop Zojja, Aethernet, Jennah and Holo-Kiel and to rescue Snaff from a certain death at the hands of ‘Mad Karka’ Kasmeer. But you ruined it, all of you. You just had to kill an undead Elder Dragon that wasn’t harming anyone. He was only trying to help.

Now Scarlet will turn all of you into undead. It’s the only way she can defeat Aethernet and Future Zojja. I hope you are happy.

Tick tock goes the clock.. made me think of Dr. Who, so excited!!

Wait… Scarlett Johansson is the Big Bad?

Martin Kerstein.3071:

Ah ha, an inside accomplice! Clearly Scarlet didn’t hack into the Queen’s Speech webpage. They were allowed to alter it!

:)

Livia (aka ‘Scarlet’)

Now there is an interesting possibility lol

Don’t be ridiculous, now we know Half Life 3 comes out Aug 20th.

I was going to warn about the attack on the announcement page, but I see everyone is already onto it.

So it was made in house…..

Looks like the queen might not survive this.

Probably other similar sites too.
I really want one of those watches.

I just want to find out where I can buy one of those watches.

If you start your own website that happens to get really big and you do a lot of Guild Wars 2 coverage, ArenaNet might send one to you for free.

you can buy one of them on amazon.

It was mentioned off-hand by the Whispers rep in the human personal story that Jenna may not be the only person with claim to the Krytan throne. Not sure if it’s Scarlet… but who knows, the leaves could just be an illusion…

To Scarlet:

We’re not afraid of your feeble posturing. Bring it.

-House Draxynnus

I think he’s reffering to Commander Wade Samuelsson of the Ebon Vanguard, as he is descended from Ascolonian royalty.

O wow.<3 for bringing this to my attention. Placing my order now.

To Scarlet,

Your tech is really good at killing humans. Can we study your stuff?

Ascalon and Kryta are separate kingdoms with separate royal lineages.

Khalija over at GW2Guru got one and she is giving it to the Pink Day in LA group so they can auction it off for charity. If you want one of the GW2 ones, you might want to consider bidding on it.

Scarlet , if your plan is to assassinate queen Jennah, I would be more than happy to provide my engineer’s services. Send a message to Arkantosxx on Desolation and we’ll get rid of Logan and Jennah!

Dear Scarlet,

Things are going exactly according to plan muhahahaha
Your floppy eared squishiepoo,

Grand Vice Admiral Shodd

PS: xoxoxoxoxoxo

Time to polish that Berserker’s gear.

If you need help give me a call. I can also aid you in removing other obstacles such as Trahearne the Salad. I’ll bring a bear too.

Whoever this Scarlet is, I sincerely hope she has a very messy end….and I’d like to see Queen Jennah deal with her personally!

Scarlet is a White Mantle. >:)

I knew it, actually it was pretty obvious that there is something going to happen. I am still jealous because those community sites get nice letters but they deserve it!

Does anyone got a Picture of this Scarlet?

Dear Scarlet,
please kill Traherne and you can do whatever you want with Tyria.
ktnxbai!

Add some Logan/Rytlock bromance and I’d read that crackfanfic.

To Scarlet,

Can I help?

Someone Tired of Jennah

Now this is starting to look interesting.

To Scarlet,

I heard Sylvari taste nice.

Sincerely,
Vegetarian society of exotic foods.

To Scarlet,

Logan’s hair is an excellent landing spot for an airship.
Make it happen. I will be there to point him out for you.

Sincerely,

The Mad Queen

To Scarlet,

Kill Logan first, I will pay you 40 gold if you do this for me.

Your Biggest Fan,
Soulstar

To Scarlet,

The Order is watching.

To Scarlet,

If you really are Countess Anise I hereby pledge all of my characters to supporting your goals. However if you are not and try to harm her all of them will hunt you down.
