    I'll definitely be a Sylvari for sure. They're a unique and colorful race, plus I like the whole jungle feel with all the bioluminescent plants and such.
    1. Sylvari Ranger (Your typical nature "roots")
    2. Sylvari Mesmer (Might as well since it's said that they can communicate with their minds o_O)

    2. Female Asuran Engineer

    1.Human(Subject to change) Elementalist

    I will get main to at least 20 before starting an alt, thinking Asura Ranger.

    i'm now leaning towards a Norn Guardian more so than the warrior or human.

    I picked Norn over Human because they're bigger, i'm usually into the more bulky races in games that pack more muscle, so the pick is strictly on looks lol.

    I'm still not positive on the profession but i am leaning towards the guardian a bit more than the warrior atm. I feel the guardian will have more survivability than the warrior in a solo perspective. I usually play warrior type professions that are adrenaline type based in other games so a change would also be nice.

    Very nice, only things in my mind that are changing now are race. Human,Asura,Sylvari. All seem like a good fit for an Elementalist. Excited to see more racial abilities revealed,whenever that may be. I will have to save my solid race choice for then.

    1. Human Necromancer (Noble & Ferocious)

    I like the Necromancer in Diablo 2 so I will probably try this out. :D

    Planning two characters:
    - an Asuran mesmer
    - a Norn warrior

    Haven't really figured out the biography for either yet, thank god I have a little bit of time.

    1. Human Thief
    --> I've played a rogue class as a main forever, and ANet's iteration of the Thief is definitely a breath of fresh air. Shying away from !DPS! !DPS! !DPS!, and replacing it with mobility and guerrilla tactics has me twitching with anticipation. No, seriously, I have an erratic twitch now thanks to GW2 :D

    2. Human or Sylvari Ranger
    --> I just got done watching some Ranger vids, and they look great! There's something about pew pewing that has me intrigued.

    3. Norn or Charr Guardian
    --> This choice swaps places daily with the Mesmer. The Guardian's unique weapon skills give a wide range of paths that a person could really have fun with. I'm really looking forward to the crazy builds that come from this class.

    4. Human or Sylvari Mesmer
    --> The misdirections and illusions of a Mesmer provide creative possibilities on the battlefield. A good Mesmer will be incredible to fight/watch, but if I'm watching while I'm fighting, I'll be in a lot of trouble ;)

    ---------

    5. Norn or Charr Warrior
    --> This melee machine has me foaming at the mouth with bloodlust! Sadly, it isn't as unique as the other classes.

    6. Necromancer

    7. Elementalist

    8. Engineer
