The embodiment of purity, this is one Guardian who's resolve is unwavering and who seeks to purge all that is unholy from the world of Tyria.

It all began, like most things do, with the Inquest. Pyr tracked the corruption within Asura society all the way up to the Arcane Council. Despite this, Pyr has not stopped and will never stop until all that is vile, tainted and evil is scoured from the world of Tyria through the cleansing purity of holy fire.
