For those who have only played since The Fall of Oriath (2017): Original Character Intros

It occurred to me that, with an influx of new Exiles to the sunny shores of Wraeclast, many have never seen the original character selection screen for Path of Exile, nor truly know what happened to their characters before they washed up on the Twilight Strand. Here is a video with the first six characters on the Templar prison ship, speaking for themselves, rather than Dominus:

...And here is the Scion's intro:

A lot more interesting start, even if it not a big part. Strange they changed it. I liked that screen :D
A little bonus:

The Templar - Path of Exile

At the time, the Templar was sort of the "poster child" for Path of Exile, his story hinted at as being the one with a real purpose. And keep in mind that, at the time this trailer came out, Act 3 was still yet to come. =^[.]^=

They should really bring this back :S
"For we are not now that strength, which in old days moved Earth and Heaven. That which we are, we are; one equal strength of heroic hearts, made weak by time and fate, but strong in will: to strive, to seek, to find, and not to yield." - Ulysses, Tennyson
Here are updated versions of the Marauder, Ranger, and Duelist intro speeches:
