I woke in the darkness of a mist-shrouded jungle with no recollection of my past. My surroundings looked barren, desolate, but they were not. I could hear the screams of anguish all around me, some calling me to join them. I ignored them, they roused no sympathy within me, I only felt a slight sense of relief and a need to leave, to get out of there as fast as I could.

Escaping from what I later learned to be called the "Forsaken Thicket", I found myself no less lost than I was before. Who am I? No one recognised me, no one could tell me who I was. There were beings who seemed similar to me, but I could not share in their bond of kinship, their "Dream"; whatever connection I may have had with them, it was lost. Then they even started to regard me with horror when they found out that I did not bleed or feel pain; it was as if I wasn't even alive, they said.

I wandered on my own to seek clues to my past, it was the sole thing that drove me. I met giant frogs and toads and people of gold, but none could give me my answers. Then I met him, another lost wanderer of the jungle, a giant cat-man, a "charr" who knew no more of his past than I did. Yet he wandered only to explore and to revel in the fight against the Mordrem. He did not care to go searching for answers. Seeing him, I let myself wonder: Why did it matter? What if it didn't matter?

It felt like my eyes finally opened to the world—and I was overwhelmed. The things I could do instead, the possibilities... Who cares about my elusive past? From now on, I will forge my future.

This looks amazing, it's an original look. The only thing that I would change is the glider, I maybe would use the default one with dark dyes.

Nice dyes and armor mix, good job! :)

That sure as hell is a damn interesting look and I really like what you did here!
Starting with your armour: I really really like the armour mix. The Bladed Vestments in combo with the Exalted Pants looks so neat together as if it's from the same set! The mask is giving me a very voodoo-ish vibe and yet at the same time it's not really voodoo like but somehow alien and unknown and I love that mysterious- vibe it's giving me. The story adds more mystery to your character which is really great. Love the shouders here I think it's a nice and rare choice for this kind of look.
What I might love the most are the Spectral weapons and your outstanding dyejob. It's dark and swampy looking and yet not too dark to not be able to recognize all the wonderful details of your Sylvari's armour. Really great job here.
Your screens are looking very nice though I would love to see some more of him!
Overall it's a great upload with a nice presentation and a mysterious story and it deserves gold! :3

So perfect. Although I wish the location of the screens where in a swamp area or something.
