Gamzee Makara: The Bard of Rage and Puppet of Faith

I've seen a lot of people talk about certain characters classpects and how it plays into their characters. Usually, it's about how Eridan as a Prince of Hope is destined for misery. But I wanna talk about how it relates to Gamzee as a Bard of Rage. Rage is described as this: "Those bound to the aspect of Rage are bringers of chaos. They possess great contempt for lies or false ideas, including the stability that false ideas can impart. To them, the true is far more important than the good; they would tear down a system just to destabilize it if, by their reckoning, it is built on faulty premises. Often the Rage-bound prefer anarchy to any of the alternate forms of civilization, which they believe to be riddled with lies and foolishness and obedient masses. They are bringers of confusion and doubt, and they can be frustratingly difficult to convince otherwise when they have attached themselves to an idea. If they sound dangerous, they are. The Rage-bound tend to be the most volatile and unpredictable of the aspects. At their best, they are original, revolutionary, and fearless. At their worst, they are cruel, uncompromising, and vicious." To summarize; Rage is quite similar to Light in a way, but instead of wanting information, they want the truth. They are skeptical until all possible doubts are not just cleared, but destroyed. So how does this apply to destroyer classes like Bard and Prince? Well, for a Prince of Rage, destroying rage is like destroying skepticism. Obliterating motivation for questions until there is only one true belief, which we see in Kurloz through his unwavering faith. But for Bards, as a passive class, instead of destroying rage actively, they destroy it passively. How do they do that? Simple. Through belief in everything. Saying that Gamzee is gullible is an understatement. As long as it's under the guise of "mIrAcLeS" he'll believe it. As he's dragged along for the ride, his aspect manifests as his observations and passively noting things that don't add up, which we can see through his breakdown during Act 5 Act 2, when Dave shows him the ICP video. He's also shown to be easily mind-controlled and manipulated and that's where the tragedy of the clown shines through. Gamzee is destined to be nothing more than a means to an end. His purpose is to serve and nothing more. If he dares not to do so, he is punished severely. As a Bard of Rage, he is relegated to that of subservience to everyone and everything, due to his lovingly gullible nature. He is more of a puppet than Lil Cal. His breakdown in Act 5 Act 2 was the beginning of his loss of freedom, being controlled by Lord English to kill and bring about his arrival. Gamzee Makara is a character who pleads to have free will and is given nothing but neglect because he is nothing more than a plot device to a cruel story. His own.

i know you've talked about broquerelsprite (crazy thing to type out) before so i'm wondering... what are your thoughts on a sprite fusion between him and davesprite. or just bro and ds in general

hm. for them to fuse, theyd have to be a ^2 sprite making them an ultimate, but thats an insane concept so i will be moving that thought to the side unless asked for lol.

he would be like. so fucked up.

im half convinced he would sprite-splode himself out of self loathing and grief. the insane amount of passive aggressive jealousy he would be lobbing dave’s way is inconceivable, but in the same breath he’d like die for dave with zero hesitation AND in the most traumatizing way. dude is gonna be SO stuck living in the past, i take back my sprite-sploding comment, hes not like actively suicidal for ds’s sake, but he’s looking for an excuse.

yeahhh, turns out if you put two people with generational trauma and insane daddy issues in a sprite, it doesnt turn out so good o_o’

basically tv sucks because all the really good writers are fucked up recluse hermits that spend all day alone, vividly hallucinating about imagined worlds, and don’t have any industry connections or even earthly tethers

i felt a little bad for drawing these guys and their ancestors in awful and terrible situations recently, so i took a break for a second and drew them having fun and being friends.

i’d like to think nepeta and gamzee are fairly good friends in this au. i think they’d have a fun dynamic.

calm and orderly discussion regarding the execution of the disciple

i like the idea of the grand highblood’s typing quirk being like sober gamzee’s in that he alternates between all capital and all lowercase between sentences.

i’ve been thinking about the ancestors a lot recently. if you couldn’t tell. by thinking i mean writing entire scripts in my head of hypothetical scenes they’d be in and how they’d talk to one another

(edit: i completely forgot to add the grand highblood’s face paint. it’s there now. i just now learned you can edit images in a post.)
