Some Sarv snippets/wips/whatever-to-gotta-complete-anything

Sarvius gripped tightly to his ritual staff, the magical flame at its tip giving some well needed warmth in the frigid morning air. His sire, who even now was watching proceedings dispassionately from above, was getting more and more frustrated as each day went by with no improvement. Sarvius’ trials had devolved, where a few months ago his instructors had been trying to get him to light a fire or raise a dead rat, now he was tasked with producing anything except the ravenous shadows that surged forth whenever he tried casting a spell.

He heard his sire’s tired and slightly annoyed voice sound out from where he was reclining a safe distance back,

“Sarvius, begin.”

Sarvius grimaced, ready to expect the worst as usual, but he knew more than better than to disobey a shaman, let alone one that was his sire. He began a chant that was half ritual and half fervent prayer as he focused on the flame burning atop his staff. And for a brief, hopeful moment, it seemed as though it was burning brighter!

And then Sarvius’s tail curled right between his legs as he recognized that the fire hadn’t changed, the world around him was just rapidly growing darker. His fur stood on end as corrupt power surged from within. He reached out, trying desperately to assert control over the torrent of darkness…

But he failed. His awareness of the world outside faded as the void’s cacophonous song filled his mind, dark whispers demanding to be free, to be whole -to be nothing!

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Sarvius grimaced from his perch in the iron rafters of the barracks, his target was finally alone… if only he could get past the guard stationed outside her room. There was nothing for it them, he silently offered up a prayer to the eternal flame to guide him true and reached for the darkness within.

 Void jaunting was one of the harder tricks he’d learnt over the years, requiring full immersion in the void sea. But beyond the risks of madness and death, it was one of the spells that forced him to confront the vastness of the darkness he channelled… or rather, it forced him to confront the fact that he had no damn idea the full extent of it.

I dunno I wanna believe in my own headcanon that the Elder Dragons weren't always these all-consuming forces of nature, but instead were once benevolent and well-meaning forces of Tyria that just succumbed to dragon madness due to the high volume of magic they had to consume in order for Tyria to stay stable, much like that of the dragons of Fire Emblem franchise

Enlightenment always comes at a price. Now you must pay for what you've learned.

Today's catrat fact: Lu and Kudo's workbenches are directly across from each other to make it easier to chat.

So pretty often they'll be working on their personal projects and Kudo'll stare at Lu and she'll smile and slowblink at him and his heart will start racing and he'll blush and oh god Kudo not again your papers are on fire

World 2 contains many personal nemeses of mine, but none more so than these damn faces. Every. Single. Time. They launch me right off the mountain, and the worst part is they don't even kill you. They just yeet you back to the start of the stage making you do every thing allllll over again.

Boltzmann brains and the true cosmic horror of the mists.

The fractals of the mists, for some they're an infinite loot farm, and for others they're a wheel of infinite torture. Their status as 'kinda horrifying' is pretty well known but I wanna go into the true depths of what they imply to the world of Tyria, and to do that we need to look at the Boltzmann brain.

So, the Boltzmann brain was a thought experiment that suggested that over an infinite period of time, it was far more likely for your brain to be the result of a random fluctuation of entropy hallucinating past memories. Essentially it was saying 'what's more likely, that your one of the people who lived and died on earth, or that your one of the infinite brains (again, given infinite time) that randomly spawn into existance before degrading back to nothing (I am VASTLY oversimplifying here and I'm sure anyone actually educated on the topic can point out innumerable misundersandings in this paragraph alone.).

Now this can kind of be applied to the world of Tyria and the surrounding proto-reality of the mists as well. We don't know how many fractals there are in existance, they seem to form naturally and the world of Tyria alone has spawned countless fractals as it marches through time (and this isn't even getting into the artificially created fractals that the wizards and similarly powerful entities can create). So essentially, my argument is, what's more likely, that you are a true Tyrian mortal, born and raised in prime Tyrian reality, or that you're a denizen of the infinite fractals that have echoed out from Tyria like ripples on a pond? Statistically, you're a fractal denizen, cursed to repeat the same day over and over until you fade back into the mists. And you'd never even know.

Honestly I don't know how Tyrian citizens sleep soundly at night.

GW2 people - Pitch me YOUR idea for an Expansion!

What's the theme, where are we going, what lore threads are we picking up on, what's the story premise, what mechanics do you think it could have.

I love spitballing ideas when I'm talking with friends so I'm posing the question To Everyone because I know everyone has some pet concepts floating around. As self-indulgent as you'd like, as unrealistic as you like, just throw ideas around, I wanna hear them!

The One I think I have the most rounded ideas for would be an Underwater Expansion. Picking up on the threat of whatever is terrorising the deep oceans, having some exploration of the Largos and bringing back in the Quaggan and the Krait maybe!

I love the sort of depths we get in maps like Frostgorge sound, and underwater combat has badly needed a rework and a tune up - there's loads of skills which straight up don't work and break entire builds underwater, and this would be a perfect excuse to try bring it up to speed. Maybe even make the underwater weapon sets function on land, to satisfy those who're after more weapons. You could make the maps a mix of true underwater and perhaps giant air bubble caves so you still had some land exploration even in maps otherwise set deep under the ocean. A map meta split with land phases and water phases. Additionally as personal bias wish, I'd love map event/meta design more like HoT. A map-wide Story with a few chains with specifically Build into the actual true Meta. I also simply love the idea of having a bunch of enemy designs based of the ocean and the abyss, there's so much incredible inspiration and interesting marine life. and biomes too! Give me a hydrothermal vent section in one of the maps, hell underwater 'water' in the form of brine pool 'quicksand'.

The Turtle might get some more use out of it's underwater, and skimmer would absolutely get spotlight as a skyscale isn't going to get you too far here - hell maybe even some speedy new underwater mount could be a fun addition to the roster.

I can see a plot being around trying to work with the Largos, The 'Terror of the Deep' being a danger and learning from them about how to survive the hostile environment and also convince them work with you to Hunt the 'Terror'. Maybe you come to the area of the ocean with the Quaggans and it's convincing the Largos to take them seriously as allies against whatever you're fighting? A quaggan companion character would be really fun, and you could easily bring back Sayeh al' Rajihd from the personal story given Largos involvement. I think not only would it be something very different in terms of the maps, which granted quite a few people might not like (thalassophobia reasons, or general Dislike of Water Gameplay reasons), but I think a rework of the underwater mechanics would benefit a bunch of places and it's something that really doesn't get touched outside of base game and maybe like, the Leviathans in EoD. There's so much neat creature design inspiriation swimming around out there, and I know so many people love the largos and even if not playable getting to see more of them could be neat! Also - it'd finally make all those legendary full people happy. A Legendary Aquabreather :P.

And a new suite of legendary underwater weapons since the G1 set. (and not themed pretty please make them all Unique.)
