Human

One of the most widespread and influential species in Tyria. They are unique in that they can have two professions, whereas it seems other species cannot. Tyrian Humans generally associate themselves with one of three factions, Ascalon, the White Mantle or the Shining Blade. There are other minor autonomous factions, such as bandits, but these parties are too small to have any real influence on the shaping of Tyria's history.

During the Guild Wars, the Human empires of Ascalon, Kryta and Orr were at war. Thanks to the Charr threat, the Guild Wars ended. The Krytan Royal family was replaced by the White Mantle. The White Mantle and Ascalon are on peaceful terms, although King Adelbern of Ascalon does not trust the Krytans. The Shining Blade is opposed to the practices of the White Mantle and aims to remove them from power.
