Hi

They’re not “risen”, though. They’re Palawa Joko’s weird Undead zombies.

Yes…. but I believe the answer the OP is looking for is…

We don’t have any risen centaurs for the same reason we don’t have any…

Undead Kodan
Undead Tengu
Undead Ogres
etc.

Which is not due to any lore-related reason…. the developers simply forgot about them.

I disagree and think it’s more of a lore/home region thing.

…so you are attributing this to all the races which do not have undead versions?

So… the dredge for example…. (who have had some of their home areas ravaged by undead.) do not have any of their race turned into undead because……..?

Risen dredge would be even uglier than regular dredge which is impossible, that is the real reason they aren’t in game.

If you think of the bandits as White Mantle cultists( which some are revealed to be) it becomes a bit more interesting. But I agree,the human story is a bit lacking in impactful plot and memorable lore charters( pretty much just Logan,Anise,and Queen Jennah over and over again). I feel like Anet could of handled the political intrigue a lot better(which is what sold the humans as interesting in the earliest blog posts),all of the human nobles come off as snobs and I get no emotional attachment to any of them no matter how many times they feature in the story.

I’m a fan of the theory that Anise is actually the Queen herself in a mesmeric disguise while the Jennah we see her “protecting” is either a loyal companion in a similar disguise or just an illusion. What better way to protect the last heir to Kryta then through a solid misdirection like that? It also makes our time with the Countess much more interesting imo.
