As humans become the dominant race of Tyria, the ancient serpentine Forgotten retreat from the lands of men and settle in the Crystal Desert.

The Forgotten were ancient, upright serpent-like beings placed on Tyria by the Six Gods long before humanity to guide the other races. As humans spread across the continent and grew dominant, the Forgotten withdrew into the Crystal Desert, where over the centuries they slipped from memory — the reason for their name.

There they came to serve the dragon Glint and to act as the testers of Ascension, posing as a threat to all who sought to become Ascended.
