Kazi the Fiery

My what-if version of the Charr Personal storyline "My father was a flame shaman" -------------------------------------------------------------- "We've been expecting you, cub. And watching you. Now that you're closer, I sense the family resemblance. Are you a traitor – or a double-traitor like your father? Convince me, cub. Renounce your former legion and swear allegiance to Flame." "Slow down. Forktail said I'd retain my rank. I join as legionnaire or I don't join at all." Earlier that day, my younger brother and I was fronted with a problem at hand. Our sire, Clement Forktail; a renegade shaman of the Flame Legion, warned us of an upcoming ritual that may call upon the end of Black Citadel as we know it. We made it out decision to confront a Flame Legion recruiter to get the better grasp of the details. I volunteered to confront them and try to hook out the details of the identity of who may be in charge of the ritual instead of my younger brother who was the actual legionnaire, since he was more valuable to the Citadel and it would be a shame to see another legionnaire of our warband to fall so soon after another if we were to fail. I was ready to be the scapegoat for greater cause. ... But when I finally went up to the recruiter and said the line, it wasn't all just a petty lie. Deep inside, I did feel underappreciated. Both of us went to the fahrar and trained hard, both of us fought alongside Tribune Brimstone against Barradin, but only one--my younger brother, Izak--seemed to be awarded of what he deserved. "Hmm, yes... I did do a little research on you before I came here... You've got some astonishing accomplishments under your name. Yet, the Blood doesn't recognize you that well, do they? The Flame is more than welcome to prevent such talent to go to waste. If you join, you will be granted the power beyond what you could've ever imagined to achieve. But in order to become a Legionnaire, you will have to challenge one and take their place. Legionnaire Flarekin is the one nearest to this vicinity." I could feel the uneasiness of my brother behind the tree. 'Kazi, what are you doing?' is probably what he is thinking. Without a moment of hesitation, I charged at the tree of which my brother was behind to fell it over. One after another, my old warband tried to attack me. But it was to no avail. "No, I'm not going to kill them, yet. They were my old warband mates, after all. But if I see them ever again, I won't be shaken." was my reply to the recruiter's suggestion. "So, about this Legionnaire I'm about to challenge, is this the one that's leading the ritual?" "Yes." "Perfect. I'll be glad to take that honor for myself. I'll make the Citadel pay for their disrespect." ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Hello! I'm IDKismyname, and this is my first entry ever. :) If you've noticed that one of the picture has a differently styled character on it, is because I'm about to create my second entry pretty soon. I've had these looks for a while now, and the reason why I'm finally posting it on GW2 Style is because there has been a number of people who's been asking me about which armor part or dyes I use and all along with their compliments through whispers and messages (many thanks to all of them!) Since I've only begun taking screenshots for my characters today, I'm still very clumsy with picking the right angles and backgrounds for their concepts, so helpful advice for next entries are ALWAYS welcome! I'm using a Poly-Luminescent Undulating Refractor (Orange) on one of my trinkets, which is why my Berserker looks like he's glowing. I was debating whether to use it for the entry or not, but settled on using it because it gives that optical illusion of his head being a giant torch, perfect for my "flame" concept! For the Gauntlet, I've debated between Glacial Gauntlet and Fused Gauntlet for the longest time, but Glacial won in my book. I'm quite happy with this design, so I don't want to post up a "Help Wanted" sign, but still any suggestions you might have to improve this are still welcome. :) (unfortunately, most of the backpiece will not fit well with this, not-so-many-thanks to the nature of Poly-Luminescent Refractor)
