These are all the new faces that were made during 2023 and have made it to the end of the year! I've put their names, race, and profession in the description box but I'll also attach it below with a bit about them!

Row 1 (left to right)—Shiori Konu is a Human Necromancer who is the youngest of the Konu siblings, and the one that's going to inherit their family's noble title once she's proven herself. Yunru (eldest) is a member of the Shining Blade and Ryon (middle) is the Commander, he was also formerly a Necromancer before he died and became a Revenant. Both of them are keeping the fact that Ryon died a secret from Shiori but neither of them realize that she...already knows. Since she's a Necromancer as well. Shiori also has a secret she's keeping from them—she contracted Scarlet's Rattle during the battle for Lion's Arch and is using her abilities to keep her lungs functioning while investigating a cure.

Nilo Liberti is a Human Mesmer who I'm planing on making a Mirage, and he's part of a twin-set with Nicoletta Liberti. They're both part of the Five Commander Guild, making up the Human portion of it. He's the elder of the two and the more reckless one of them. He lost his hand rather stupidly during a battle—which one I haven't decided yet—and thus he's been tempered a little in holding back from throwing himself into the wind.

Row 2 (left to right)—Tarsicia Ghostpyre is a Charr Guardian who's destined for Willbender eventually. She ends up being the Mom Friend of the Five Commanders when it's all said and done, but the road to get there is hella bumpy. Right now she's in her grump stage, still attempting to mend herself after Claw Island and ready herself for all that comes now that Zhaitan is gone.

Emrys the Sly is our Sylvari Thief who's already been dumped into Deadeye. He's the charmer of the Five Commanders, he knows he's handsome and a smooth talker to boot so he uses it to his advantage more than oft. He's formerly Nilo's lover without the romantic entanglement of it all, mostly because he and Nicoletta are plotting to get Nilo and Izar together somehow.

Oiba Pathfinder was the last of the Five Commanders to be made, she's our Asuran Ranger who will eventually find her way into Soulbeast. An unwanted secondary child, Oiba's made her own way in the world and found a new family with her guildmates. She's eventually going to be able to merge with her pets in their form via Soulbeast (as well as vice versa) but enlarged by like...3-4 times the pet's normal size. She's going to become an absolute terror on the battlefield.

Row 3 (left to right)—Elara the Seeker is a Sylvari Elementalist whom found her way to Elona right after it opened up to northern Tyria again. She had a pull there and while outwardly prickly herself, she's more than kind to her apprentice whom she's teaching/has taught to be a Weaver, aka Zivis.

I Want Uppies is a meme of an Asuran Thief, she runs about permanently miniature'd so she's no more larger than the Progeny that've been sized down in that one Metrica event. You'll become a climbing post for her to scout from if you stand still long enough. And she gets away with it too, because she's just so darn cute!!

Fiszél is another Sylvari Elementalist, this one styled after the Koi weaponset that we got this year. I haven't done much with him yet story wise, so for now he's just a pretty plant to look at.

Row 4 (left to right)—The Ever Given is another meme character, a Norn Warrior of the largest model we can do. And embiggened permanently much like Uppies' opposite. Again, not much of a story for him just yet other than he likes to lay across the track in the races just before the finish line.

Ethrreana is a Sylvari Ranger who's story is not what you expect. Move those letters of their name around and you get...Trahearne???? Yep, that very same Pact Marshal is locked inside a body that is not his own and now has to wander about the world learning a new set of skills and doing all the Commander things. Oh boy...

The Strange Voice is a Kryptis Sylvari Mesmer who has Mirage as her Elite. She's a cosplay of Peitha and thus, the character ought to be well enough known. This is what I interpret her to look like if she was trying to disguise herself as a Sylvari to wander about Tyria without attracting too many looks. But she's also permanently embiggened so...

Row 5 (left to right)—Comndarem is in a situation similar to Ethrreana, however this Sylvari Necromancer is the (once again, unscrambled:) Commander! The opposite of what happened to Ethrreana happened to Comndarem in their universe and so the former Commander has to try and become the Pact Marshal and lead the new Commander around.

Edgelady Vineflower was supposed to be Vineblossom but guess what was one character too many. Still, this Sylvari Revenant is another weaponset inspired take! So we don't have much story for her yet.

Oighrig thë Atlas is a Sylvari Necromancer who is a clone of a Sylvari of the same name/profession. Mostly because I missed the initial coloration that he had. I want to say this set of tones is pre-death for him, so pre-Zhaitan. The richer yellows/greens coming after his resurrection by Trahearne not willing to let go of him so soon.

Row 6 (left to right)—Spirït Halloween is yet another meme character, this time the Asuran Revenant-Herald was inspired by the Halloween pop-up shop that takes over the corpses of dead department stores every October. He's just...borrowing this body for the time being. No one was home anymore so it's more than fine. Right?

Nichneven of Lilac is our last one, a Sylvari Ranger who is the new Commander for Comndarem! She's the one who's taken over their previous spot, all of this information is in the post from yesterday about her for Dreamcember.
