Charr need no gods....but who can resist the temptation of becoming one!
While Ares may already have many years under his belt and has sired a cub or two, he's still fighting with the force of fresh blood. His eyes are already dimming and failing but the grip on his weapon doesn't loosen.

For my first entry here I found it fitting to share my first and favourite character Ares. Even before hitting lvl 80 I had gotten the idea to play with the 'charr need no gods' voiceline and started to work towards a bit of a angelic / cheesy-greek-god look. It drove me to many things I hadn't imagined, like crafting my first legendary and many more after that just to make him a bit more 'godlike'.
/A huge thank-you for my precious friend who not only pressured me to finally make an account and this post but also helped me a great deal with the pictures https://gw2style.com/profile.php?id=17550

gold from me
Really loving how powerful you look on those mountaintop pictures.
Overall, I'd say that's a pretty cool character, the Winged Headpiece looks slightly out of place and I do think there's better face-options for the "greek god" feeling out there. Still, I really like to see a Charr that isn't using the standard Cultural armor looks, so extra props for that.
Nice dye choices too, even goes with Astralaria really quite nicely!
Thank you!
I think you have a point there. The headpiece is something I've been changing from time to time so maybe I shouldn't get too comfortable with this one. While I think you're right about the face options, I decided to go with this one because it has the battle-hardened look to it that I found fitting for a god of war. It sadly doesn't show in the screens but this face option is also the only one I know of that has naturally reddened eyes which is the closest to showing signs of blindness. But thank you for your kind words and critique!
