I'll remain a Braham defender. He had the most unique story arc for an NPC in an MMO. A guy who was constantly out of his depth trying his best while being stuck in the shadow of his very famous parents, and in the shadow of his closest friend. Doing everything he can to live up to the epic heroes in his life as well as trying to navigate a culture that despises failure. He has a falling out then reconciliation with the PC, losing another BFF, being forced into a world-altering destiny he clearly didn't want, and somehow making it out alive. Him finally finding his place in the world as the leader of the same town he started his journey out simply trying to defend? This guy had an actual textbook hero's journey. (All the Wayfinder does is kill anything that gets in their way. They're more a force of nature, like an Elder Dragon, than a character.)
Describing the player character as a "force of nature" is pretty succinct. By virtue of it being an MMO with limited potential for storyline derivatives and a focus on combat, our heroics are essentially just the universe responding to other "negative" stimuli- mundane stuff like immoral scientists and suspiciously coordinated bandits, all the way up to interplanar deities that filter and consume magic radiation or the very fabric of existence.
I agree with you. I feel that Braham is a well written character and that people never actually take the time to think about why he does what the does.
Thank you for the video. I haven't played any of the LWS (apart from 1) so some characters were unknown to me. Also, your video cleared a doubt about Caithe, regarding her "new" look (had no idea she was branded by Aurene). By the way, LXXV is 75 (had to Google it lol)
I made sure to talk to everyone I can talk to and you can bet on it I blanched when queen chrii'kkt V made a comment about the demise of her mother 😂😂😂😂
There are some comments about Largos and Quaggan. Iirc in the second meeting someone talks about the Largos declining to attend and the deep sea Quaggan having weirdly gone no contanct recently.
While playing through the story mission where you first meet the council, there is a book that talks about the Quaggan and Largos dealing with 'something' deep in the ocean so they declined their invite. The book also mentioned Canthan and Asura techs working together to build a stable underwater base. I smell a future underwater expac lol

Btw LXXV is 75 in roman numerals. So there have been quite a lot more skrit kings than queens.
Eeeeh, Henry VIII was the eight English king NAMED Henry, though he was certainly not the 8th king of England.

Werent they like King 15 or so in Skrittburg around core game? Damn 😂😢
Love your videos my man, so much to learn and take in. Relaxing to listen to also.
I was about to comment about the lack of information about the commander/wayfinder until the end of the video
Part if me wants to tease about us being the commandfinder or the waymander.
Thanks for covering known info about this important council. Evan is my favorite GW2 lore guy.
I made sure to talk to everyone I can talk to and you can bet on it I blanched when queen chrii'kkt V made a comment about the demise of her mother 😂😂😂😂
Oh nooooo 😂😂😂😂
This is VERY helpful! Thank you very much for putting this up!
They forget the Largos, Quaagans and Exalteds
There are some comments about Largos and Quaggan. Iirc in the second meeting someone talks about the Largos declining to attend and the deep sea Quaggan having weirdly gone no contanct recently.
Also Hylek seems to be forgotten altogether
About that Jennah theroy, that she might be a part of Lyssa, what if she is her secret daughter, could be a possibility
Man, I can't believe they didn't elect Shashoo
I know you said "Zhaitan's rising" but I heard "Zhaitan's Ryzen" and now I can't unsee Zhaitan as PC Master Race dragon.
Awesome lore video 👏🏾
No Quaggan representatives?
Tsk tsk tsk...
At least we got the Skritt, so that's good
Ayumi mentioned 🎉🎉🎉
We eaten good tonight boys
No Quagaan?
