In this week's Guild Wars 2 Column, David North muses on a topic many of us probably think about... what would the next race added to the playable races be in Tyria? Read on for David's thoughts and see if you agree.

I could start things off with the most obvious choice, but let’s start things off weird.  This request from players really caught me off guard, but the Quagan has captured the hearts of players everywhere.  A special plush Quaggan backpack has even been thrown into the gem store!  These cuties have become a big hit, but why play as one?  The Quaggan don’t look like fierce warriors such as the Charr.  Maybe it’s the way they speak.  I could see players now typing in chat, "Quaggan plays as Quaggan."  Players sure are weird.
