Cynn is a major NPC (non-player character) from the CORPG, Guild Wars. The player first meets this female elementalist in Ascalon City, Pre-Searing Ascalon near the Great Northern Wall. She promptly tells the player to leave her alone if he/she decides to talk to her. Cynn, along with Aidan, Devona and Mhenlo, accompany the player on his/her adventures throughout the Guild Wars storyline during various quests or as a "henchman" to be used in general PvE exploration.

The hot-tempered Cynn lost her parents when her home in the city of Surmia, was incinerated during the Searing. She was trapped under the rubble of her home for several days until a Charr looting party managed to find her and dig her out. The Charr, planning to make a meal of her, were instead killed, thanks to Cynn's natural talent in the magical arts. These events during her childhood, including the fact she was born into nobility, may explain her stubborn and fiercely independent nature. She is also over-protective of Mhenlo (and perhaps cares for him more than she's willing to admit).

She is aged 20 in 1072AE when the game is set.
