Default Gwen: the Real origin?

If you watch the Making of GW there is a little girl in the credits that looks just like Gwen...

You have it wrong. When the five gods cam forth, so did another darker power come too. It was Gwen. A creature of the mists so powerful that it killed stuff.

#SPOILER#
Gwen created Abaddon......

ok enough with gwen being the anti-christ. just because she beat the heck out of everyone after the prophecies beta testing doesnt mean she is abaddon or realted to abaddon in any way. she is just a little girl who went missing after the searing. even if it just started as a joke, the joke got old.

The fact that they used Gwen to kill everyone was a joke to begin with. Its stupid how people think she is some sort of powerful thing. It was simply the dev teams sense of humor.

But, if Dhuum, Balthazar and Menzies are brothers, they also have a mummy and daddy...

Possibly, it could be kind of like Greek mythology, where Zeus was the son of Cronus, son of Uranus, etc. There could've been some old pantheon before the current gods, much like how Grenth replaced Dhuum (although, why don't we hear about Melandru beating up some other nature god? Doesn't make sense).

Also, where does it say that Dhuum is related to Balthazar?

Gwen is actually a henchmen. After extensive surgery and psychological interviews/sessions, she is now known as "Little Thom".

I have never seen Gwens parents in the game, though i think they are in the Underworld somewhere, because there is a dead Ascalon Guard down there saying "I died defending the wall, and this is my reward?"
So i presume her parents lie in there.
If ANet ever do finish the Gwen story, then i should think that her origins shall be linked in there somewhere.

Well, we haven't seen a realm for Melandru yet, or Lyssa or Dwayna for that matter. So it might be that she did beat up an elder nature god(dess) and we just haven't had the chance to see it yet.

Or it could be that, while the original pantheon had a balance of good and evil gods, the good side has been slowly weeding out and replacing the truly evil gods like Dhuum with more benign replacements - a gradual replacement of the gods that go crazy rather than wholesale replacement of the pantheon.

First of all, he was clearly joking. So cool down a bit.

Secondly, I'm not sure where you got your information, but it becomes clear later in Nightfall that Abbadon is not one of the eternal gods. So by a little induction, we can assume that the 5 true gods ARE eternal, and so by definition older?
