Since that time, the charr have had to fight on multiple fronts. The Iron Legion, for its part, took control of Ascalon. Together, they cast down the Flame Legion shamans and regained control of the fate of the charr race. The Iron, Blood, and Ash Legions joined the uprising after the insurgents’ leader, Kalla Scorchrazor, won the support of the Iron Legion Imperator. The charr females defied the rule of the Flame Legion, gathering with them rebellious factions from the other charr legions. The Flame Legion won the battle, but their victory condemned the charr to an eternal insurrection. In the end, the charr did take Ascalon, but its maddened human king chose to invoke his own dark magic, the Foefire, which stripped the souls of his people from their bodies and left them to eternally guard their land as ghosts. As the war lengthened, each success was attributed to the inherent rightness of the Flame Legion’s crusade, while each failure was used as an excuse for others to sacrifice for the good of the Flame Legion shamans. The Flame Legion also subordinated the charr females, who had previously been equals to the males. The charr paid for their success dearly the old High Legions (Ash, Blood, and Iron) were put under the yoke of the Flame Legion, who researched forbidden magics and worshipped dark, false gods. Distant Kryta resisted their incursions, but both Orr and Ascalon ultimately chose self-destruction over defeat by the charr. However, they rallied and eventually invaded the human nations. After they were driven from Ascalon, they engaged for centuries in a war with the humans, only to have their efforts stymied by the power of the human gods and technology. The charr made the open lands east of the Shiverpeaks their home for many long years before the arrival of the humans. Yet despite their success, they are challenged by divisions among their people, the power of the Elder Dragons, and the ghosts of their own victories. Their mighty fortress, the Black Citadel, dominates the surrounding ruins of the human city of Rin, and their non-magical technology is the mightiest in the land. They have returned, reconquered, and rebuilt their original homes. They have survived defeat, oppression, and civil war. The feline charr of Tyria are a victorious race challenged by their own success. “With the roar of engine and the thunder of guns, we rip each day from life’s teeth” More from the Guild Wars 2 official website:
