Asura
From Guild Wars 2 Wiki
The Asura are a race of diminutive artisans, who secretly dwelled below-ground for thousands of years, until the minions of the Great Destroyer forced them out of their underground homes 250 years ago. Since then, they have adapted to surface life and quickly established themselves as one of the most powerful races in Tyria. They control a complex Gate system which links all the areas of Tyria together via magically-created wormholes. They have good relations with all races, and guard their neutrality and trade routes jealously, never allowing the Asura Gates to be used to gain the upper hands in the wars between the other races.
The Asura believe that they are destined to rule the world, with the taller, less intelligent races under them. Instead of an organized government system, they prefer to utilize krewes, which are small, efficient task forces designed to let each individual Asura reach their own maximum potential in any particular task.
