Avatars are representatives of the Gods of Tyria that interact with players in the game. They are summoned by approaching a god's statue and issuing an emote command. The most frequently used is kneeling, and would be keyed as:


 * /kneel

If your territory currently has the Favor of the Gods, an avatar should appear. Clicking on them (as with any other NPC) will bring up a dialogue box, which may or may not have further options.

These are the gods' avatars available in the game right now:
 * Balthazar: Champion of Balthazar (a Ghost Knight)
 * Dwayna: Avatar of Dwayna (an apparition resembling Dwayna's statues)
 * Grenth: Voice of Grenth (a specter)
 * Melandru: Melandru's Watcher (a Druid)
 * Lyssa: Lyssa's Muse (a face in a wreath)

If you talk to a god's avatar, he may offer you special tasks and services:
 * Avatars of Grenth and Balthazar in Temple of the Ages and Lornar's Pass offer access to the Realms of the Gods.
 * Avatars of Dwayna in other outposts sometimes offer quests.
 * Avatars in explorable areas offer blessings.
