Guild Wars Nightfall Chartacter Details  by Craig D at 22:12

PC
I missed these image earlier, here's a couple of Guild Wars Nightfall chartacter renders. They show 'The Dervish' and the 'The Paragon', explanations of the two characters are below.

The Paragon:
The Paragon is a brilliant battle commander who wields a shield and throwing spears, using a variety of verbal chants and shouts to provide temporary empowering boosts to themselves and their allies. Through their insight, Paragons can also help allies resist hexes and conditions. The Paragon's armor is ornate and usually made of a mixture of metal and leather inset with ivory, mother of pearl, and other semiprecious materials. Paragon armor has an angelic motif, usually in the form of wings engraved onto the metal plates. Paragons are the guardian angels of the Elonian people, chosen by the gods to serve as emissaries among mortals and serve as that land's champions against malevolent threats. Each has experienced an event in their early lives where they should have died, but did not. They ascribe their survival to the gods themselves, and dedicate their lives as the gods' servants in the
mortal world.

The Dervish:
Dervishes are scythe-wielding holy warriors who can attack multiple enemies at once. Because the broad sweep of a swinging scythe can strike multiple foes at once, the Dervish seeks the very heart of a battle. The Dervish will calmly and intently cast spells on themselves even while surrounded by foes, and suddenly unleash a flurry of devastating, whirling, scythe attacks. The Dervish has a variety of combat-related enchantments and inherent healing and protection abilities. Their greatest power, however, is that of transformation. The Dervish, when roused, may channel divine powers and change their form to temporarily become the physical embodiment of a god.

The Dervish's attire is a testament to the dual nature of the Dervish as both a priest and a warrior. They wear a robe to show their faith in the divine, bracers to demonstrate their prowess in combat, and a hood to mark their humility before the gods. This garb provides limited armor, but the Dervish is shielded in battle by their agility and by the enchantments that they cast upon themselves. These enchantments make them resistant to injury, turn aside the attacks of their foes, and lend elemental power to their attacks.
