Now, we get to the lastbut not least of the five playable races, the Asura.
The Asura are the smallest playable race of Guild Wars 2, with the average of four feet tall, only stand up to a Norn's belt. Male and female Asura are very similar in body, with slender builds, the head, hands, and feet are slightly exagerated, and large, flappy ears on the sides of thei head. They are differentiated by their voice and ear structure. The best part of Asura are that they bounce when they jump or stops moving quickly. The Asura live in a floating cube called Rata Sum(rahtah soom) west of The Grove, on the Tarnished Coast.

The Asura believes in the Eternal Alchemy, which all beings and magic are a part of a greater purpose. The three major colleges of Rata Sum, specificly, Statics, Dynamics, and Synergenics, study the Eternal Alchemy and how it works. There are many who claims that the Eternal Alchemy is not areligion, but a science.
The Asura utilizes krewes, or small groups of Asura, with the most experienced as the leader of the group. The Asuran government is the Arcane council, who are responsible for the mudane parts of city life, though not many choses to be a member of the Arcane Council. Being in the Arcane Council means that they are not able to participate in normal everyday research, since the Asura pursuit technology and improvement.
Most Asura believes that the Eternal Alchemy cannot be changed, however, there are krewes that think the Eternal Alchemy can be controlled, just like any other machine, they're called the Inquest. The Inquest tries to contain and control dragon energy.
