| Absolutely brilliant visuals. Victor, I think you secretly know somewhere hidden in you that the Sylvari are infinitely better than the Norn  |

| I'm sure you do, only because you know that I am right  . It is rather upsetting that the Norn, being the almighty race have to resort to raping people while out on a wholesome camping trip. Shame. |

| You shouldn't be able to create a GW2 account for disrespecting the all powerful Norns. |

| Doesn't matter what skill ANet provides, the Norn will simply crush everything non-Nornish. |

| Not true. Humans our natural destoryers and will probably destory the Norn's natural habbit and become extinct like many other animal specis  . Not to mention the Sylvari will just simply out smart the norns natural brutish approach. |

| They can't Blood, Norns will transform and fool the Sylvari into thinking their cute animals, when night comes, they'll eat their heads and take a crap in their backyard. Same with humans, the only 2 races left would be Asurans and Charr, Asurans are too small to survive against proud Norns and vicious Charrs. At the end, the Charr and Norn will mate with each other and have babies called Narrs, who will later rule all of Tyria. The Norns will eventually notice Narrs are to kind and have lost their pride and lust for power over time. So now they're not worthy to roam Tyria, and even though they're their own children, they will destroy them. Charrs already have problems with the Flame Legion so they'll eventually end up killing themselves. Destroyers...we took care of them in EotN so they're long gone.
You know, I should write a book about the greatness of the Norns.
And as you can see I took the slogan "Whats your story?", very, VERY, serious. |

| It has long been known that the first Norn was the offspring of a Yak and a horny goat herder named Bunneh. Over time, other cold land creatures such as the bear, wolf, raven, and (to a lesser degree) sturgeon, got in on the action with their eventual offspring. There is nothing romantic or redeeming about the Norn: other than Jora's large chest. Just saying...
Victor, I hate to be the one to break it to you, but you will be a Norn about the time Zephy figures out the great mystery of Norgu... |

First, your story doesn't make sense, plus being romantic is a sign of weakness and vulnerability, so of course theres nothing romantic about Norns. And according to GW2 game developers, I'll be a Norn as soon as GW2 comes out, so I just proved you wrong. You're just trying hard to ruin the Norns reputation and unfortunately, failing badly at it.
You all can try as hard as you want, but unfortunately for you guys, Norns will always prevail. It's like trying to kill Indiana Jones: bullets, explosions, sophisticated death traps, poison, even an atom bomb...it simply WON'T work. 
Zephy...sigh...your obliviousness is amazing. |

Victor, realization of the truth can be quite horrifying at times there are support groups for these kinds of things. His sotry speaks the truth the tablets were uncovered by Tyrian Archaeologists long before we had come to meet the Norn. The Yak in Yak's bend was the next of Kin of the Yak which bore the first of the Norn. People have been through experiences like this and it can be traumatizing when people come to the truth that the Norn are not as powerful as they think they are, nor as powerful as Indiana Jones. Too be honest, pretty sure Indy would be a Sylvari as well. |

| You're right, I read the tablets and found the truth behind everything. However, in Lion's Arch history museum I also found out that the so called "horny goat herder" is named Carlos Ray Norris. The Yak that Carlos had sex with was the result of a massive sex party that took place at a Lynyrd Skynyrd concert. It involved some rednecks, goats and of course cows. Basically, its the representation of all the most powerful beings on the planet, cows are big and have strong bodies, goats have powerful horns, rednecks have a strong pride, hence the reason they sleep with their families or barn animals, their so proud, they don't want any other race to damage their intelligence and DNA. Of course you add the very essence of power and manhood, Chuck Norris, and you get a Norn. You see, their offspring is so complex, it's impossible to be understood but a lesser creature like you, which explains why you prefer a more simple race like a Sylvari.
Yes, in the REAL history of Tyria both Chuck Norris and Lynyrd Skynyrd exist. |

| I would say the complexity of an entirely new race of biological planet-like beings being hardly simplistic and would make a Norn's head spin in circles. Seeing as you just stated that the Norn are a bunch of inbreeds, who found a cox and a yak attractive seems rather 'icky' to me.
I will concdede that a Norn can take a lot of hits and that is useful as one can simply tell a Norn to attack a giant Dragon and they will go do it. Possibly a side effect of mating a redneck, horny goat herder, a yak, a cow and Chuck Norris together. It does seem to be good for those playing the classes of a more 'pure' bloodline. =] Fearlessly stupid <3 |
