The dervishes worship the "Five True Gods". Thus only 5 from skills are in existance. As far as Varesh is concerned...you can call her 2nd form Avatar of Abbadon...because she does kinda change form a lil....and comes back from the dead.

Also aggree with him. It would spoil the ending...only way to keep ending a secrete is to cap Avatar of Kormir in DoA AND only make it useable in DoA

Admit it, you would want to play as an Avatar of Abaddon

Those..Claws? Should be tentacles/tendrils restricted to the head and appearing sort of like dreadlocks.

Just to clear up an earlier misconception:

AbaddonThe God of Secrets .

Kormir was the Goddess of Truth. (not Secrets)

Secrets can be truths, and truths can be secrets.

Kormir won't play a significant role until Gw2 is my guess.
But she does have an avatar-thing. Go /kneel at her shrine in chantry of secrets.

Komir is said to be one of the true gods . If she was she would be worshipped all over tyria and cantha not just chantry of secrets in elona. lol i never like kormir
so i chose to think her as one of the other gods:Abaddon • Dhuum • Menzies • Goddess of Truth(kormir) • Great Dwarf • Great Destroyer.
Not one of the Five True Gods:
Balthazar • Dwayna • Grenth • Lyssa • Melandru
who have their monuments swept across Tyria Cantha and Elona.

Kormir is worshiped all over Tyria, Elona, and Cantha. In the NF end-game cinematic, you see a statue of Kormir in somewhere other than the Chantry of Secrets.

In the Dragon Festival 08 and 09, you get Kisu talking about Kormir (would quote but wiki doesn't have his little speech).

Kerrsh talks about Kormir in his quest The Cipher of Kormir.

Again: Kormir is one of the six true gods and is worshiped all over the known world of Tyria.

Kormir doesn't have any known statues outside the Chantry of Secrets because storyline wise, the only place we go to after her rise is the areas in Eye of the North which has either no statues of the true gods or the statues are ancient and of unknown origin - thus Kormir wouldn't have a statue there.

I once more repeat myself in saying this.

now about kormir, it's a different story, but still, i wouln't use it coz i h8 kormir ^^

What about evil dervishes, like, say, Margonite Reapers? (Incidentally one of the best signs that the Dervish profession didn't first arise during the Shattered Dynasties era, but which was instead... rediscovered.)

I tended to think of her as a D/P (she was a war leader, after all, and even as Commander Varesh she wears Dervish armour). Given that according to the Nightfall preorder disk every Paragon has had an event in their life where they should have died but some god took an interest and they didn't, it's also possible that Varesh's first 'death' was in fact the trigger to propel her into Paragonhood.

Indeed. They're both aspects of what is basically the same portfolio - a different emphasis, maybe, but both basically stand for 'knowledge'.

Personally, I suspect that if Chapter 4 had been completed (or if EOTN had elite skills rather than PvE skills that look suspiciously like they were cribbed from plans for elite skills) there would have been an Avatar of Kormir there. ANet didn't seem to have been particularly concerned about avoiding spoilers about past chapters when making new ones.
