Hi there and welcome Forum people. I do not know if this have been posted or have not been posted on the forum before but I sent a Mail concerning the above issue to the Guild wars faction.
So I was on last night and then someone saw my Guardian and stroke me with a odd random question that was formulated in the depths of boredom.
Option of a Change.
We all leveled our toons and enjoy them pretty much but some where along the line we would awe, and see something better like female character armor looks better or the Norse being bulky.
I think that the game developers for a price to let us change our characters From male to female and if they are comfortable with the idea we can even change races from human to Norse and so forth.
Good luck in your battles.
