Sylvari - What are they?
Hello guys, I'm going to just straight in with the awesome basic details of all the profession's and classes on guild wars 2 that I have heard about and have any evidence I can find for them... Enjoy :)
 Long ago, a weary soldier planted a strange seed in the depths of the  Maguuma Jungle. For centuries, the Pale Tree grew, branches arching  over the forest, until at last--twenty five years ago--it bloomed, and  the Firstborn stepped into the world. They were followed by their  brethren, season after season of sylvari, wide-eyed with wonder and  searching for purpose in this strange land. Shaped first by the Dream  that nurtured them before they awakened, the sylvari now travel Tyria  seeking adventure and their place in the world. They struggle to balance  curiosity with duty; eagerness with chivalry; and warfare with honor.

 The Dream still lingers in their souls, like an echo of a distant  song. Through it, they can sense the ebb and flow of their race, feel  the empathic connections between all sylvari, and share their  discoveries and knowledge like water into a river's current. They have a  deep connection with the land and the riches it bears, and know that  all things which grow and blossom are their brethren. Guided by the  lessons carved into the sacred Ventari Tablet, they have built a city  within the forest, and created a culture that blends the mystery of  magic with a steel-tempered resolution to do good.

 But not all sylvari are noble, and not all Dreams are pleasant. Some  of the children of the Pale Tree walk a shadowed path, devoted to a  Nightmare that boils beneath the surface and whispers of dark moons,  wicked revels, and terrible secrets murmured at midnight. The Nightmare  Court rejects the virtues of their brethren and seeks to draw all  sylvari toward their sinister philosophy. If they are not stopped, they  will taint the Dream with their evil deeds and corrupt the Pale Tree  herself, condemning the noble race of sylvari to a future of vice and  corruption. In the battle between Dream and Nightmare, the fate of the  newest race in Tyria will be determined by heroes.
