Talk:Khan-Ur

From Guild Wars 2 Wiki

Every time I see something that says "mysterious circumstances" or the like, I get the feeling we'll find out more about it in game. On another note, who thinks we'll 1v1 the Khan-Ur at some point? :P -- Armond Warblade 22:54, 5 January 2008 (UTC)

Except he died like a thousand years ago. Lord Belar 00:01, 6 January 2008 (UTC)

One of them did. -- Armond Warblade 01:53, 6 January 2008 (UTC)

The Khan-Ur is the ruler, not a specific person. But I wouldn't be suprised if he was a main antagonist if you were human. Calor (t) 02:56, 6 January 2008 (UTC)

No, the khan-ur was the ruler, there aren't any anymore. After they died out, the charr split to four legions, of which you'll probably have to chose one, if you're a charr. Lord Belar 03:57, 6 January 2008 (UTC)

If he was, then why does the article say is? — ク Eloc 貢 17:10, 10 January 2008 (UTC)

Typo? Lord Belar 00:23, 11 January 2008 (UTC)

Or horrible wording. Calor (t) 01:26, 11 January 2008 (UTC)

I'm not sure that anyone is disputing that the contents are wrong. :) Khan-Ur is always referred to as 'the Khan-Ur' and as a hereditary title in the Ecology of the Charr. I'm fixing the article by copying the content from gww. --Aspectacle 03:13, 11 January 2008 (UTC)

theres the wikipedia page that talks about Genghis Khan. Dont know how to make the link Farwind 20:49, 21 January 2008 (UTC) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Genghis_Khan#Death_and_burial

We're talking Charr, not Mongols. Lord Belar 20:56, 21 January 2008 (UTC)

Khan was a Mongol title for king. Genghis Khan was the title for Temujin. Calor (t) 21:22, 21 January 2008 (UTC)

Its been put under the "trivia" section and seems to have had a huge influence on the history of the char. it just needs a link for the source. Farwind 21:25, 21 January 2008 (UTC)

...I hate mostly unrelated triva. Lord Belar 21:33, 21 January 2008 (UTC)

I do too. It really shouldn't be there. Calor (t) 21:39, 21 January 2008 (UTC)

It's not really unrelated. read the history of the charr and the history of the mongols. as I said up above, the Charr history seems to have been based off of the mongols. Farwind 01:34, 23 January 2008 (UTC)

It's a typical scenario. They could've been based off of any of dozens of medieval and pre-medieval societies, The Mongols being one of the better known ones. Take Europe after Charlemagne's death. Suddenly there are hundreds or thousands of nobles with small armies fighting each other for all the power after their leader's death, though none become full rulers, and each believes they are the best.

The Ghengis Khan connection makes sense, and though I don't agree with that whole big history lesson being on the article, I left it alone. But I did remove the bit about Star Trek: The Rath of Khan in the Trivia section. It makes me picture the assassin who killed the last one yelling "KHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAN!" --Cjad the Nord 07:51, 27 January 2008 (UTC)

KHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAN! Cress Arvein 04:47, 21 August 2008 (UTC)
