#Gilear is the chosen one

[embraceweird]

Gilear's speech after having his luck returned had me in tears 😢

The arc this man has had. From having Fig use magic to make Gilear feel better to him genuinely loving his life curse and all!

He has his daughter, his partner, and his STEPSON what more does one need 💛

Ally: that made me so mad it burst my stitches

Brennan: oh no!!! Are you okay?

Ally: I'll be *fine*. They're mostly healed. But the ones that aren't are in trouble.

The Bad Guys!!! + Gilear ( cuz he's extra special)

Sorry for taking so long to do the rest of the bad kids!! I'm super excited for junior year, so please I would love suggestions of other characters you guys want me to do!

Y’all he went full Gilear.

I never eat breakfast, but I had some time this morning, so I had some yogurt and joked to myself about having a Gilear moment.

I played a Gilear game and won a Gilear prize- my pants ripped as soon as I got to work and sat down 🙃

[mothsgotghosts]

Can't believe Gilear has reached legend status. This is the same man who didn't know what mash potatoes or whatever were in freshman year.

GILEAR CATBOY!!

We're gonna begin initiative with Bill Seacaster steering the ship, blasting Gilear Feath in the chest. Gilear Faeth is fully dead. X

Gilear (Faeth) Lavellan DA:I Playthrough

Was talking to pals in a server about Gilear RP playthroughs after we all freaked over the Veilguard reveals, because the Dragon Age-Dimension 20 fan venn diagram has a laaaarge overlap.

And playing as Gilear in any game is a fun challenge because the Fantasy High GM (Brennan Lee Mulligan) has been fighting the Intrepid Heroes' insistence that Gilear Faeth is the chosen one by killing him repeatedly, allowing him 0 weapons, and creating a character completely unfit for combat.

Gilear is cursed with bad luck, depression, and lemon yoghurt. He is my babygirl. And he WILL be the Inquisitor, savior of us all. Or die trying, repeatedly.

For this playthrough he is an elven mage because I want him to have the necromancer specialization (for the bit, of course) and because he would 100% bumble his way into being Keeper of Clan Lavellan. He was Vice Principal of Aguefort Adventuring Academy, after all. And, far more importantly, he was Lunch Lad.

The plan is to romance either Cassandra or Dorian. Cassandra because she's most like his ex-wife Sandra Lynn. Dorian because he's most like his new wife Hallariel. Leaning towards Dorian bc we wanna keep that divorced step-dad to the daughter he thought was biologically his background.

Technically, I could also go for The Iron Bull or Josephine. But The Iron Bull would eat Gilear alive and leave no crumbs. And I think Josephine would stress him out, reminding him too much of when he was a diplomat (in DA canon, a Lavellan clan ambassador ig)

For actual character creation (this totally didn't take me 2 hours. totally not) I tried to make him as wet, pathetic, and close to his FHJY design as possible.

Easter Eggs:

I picked the design for Gilear's vallaslin (Dalish facial tattoo w/ big significance) that would be closest to his daughter Fig's horns

The vallaslin design corresponds to Dirthamen, elven god of knowledge that taught the elves about loyalty and filial piety (afaik)

His inner iris is yellow, in reference to lemon yoghurt and the Armor of Pride

Okay I had to get this out because I put WAY TOO MUCH work into this guy! Will update more about the playthrough, probably under the "#gilear faeth lavellan IS the chosen one" tag.

Okay time to get to a point where I can fucking save.

[gotsnoonetotalkto]

If Gilear feels like this everyday I feel so sorry for him.

He should be the chosen one cause no one who feels like this everyday and get through a whole year isn’t in some way super strong

[baileyondemand]

Brennan really said season of the witch? Nah, this is the season of the bit 🔥

[gloomyhallway]

every time a new dimension 20 campaign is announced and it isn't fantasy high i cry just a little inside

[grandwretch]

you know its so weird because literally just two weeks ago i was thinking about how gilear canonically disowned fig and called her a demon, even though by the time he calmed down he regretted it and walked it back-- and how that is so, so out of character for the gilear we grew to know. and brennan has referenced that before.

but, now i'm like... is it?

because we're watching gilear abandon a kid right now. and sure, the kid doesn't like him very much. but that's a kid he signed up for. a kid that isn't his, but a kid he knew about, and you don't abandon a kid because they aren't nice to you.

so, like, is it out of character for gilear to abandon fig, ignoring how shocked and hurt she was about her own parentage? is it really out of character for him to prioritize his own pain above fig's?

or is this just who he is, when things are going well for him? was he ever a good person, or just a person resigned to patheticness and mediocrity? now that's he's back in the saddle, is he willing to do anything to stay there?

and even worse, when he falls back off, is he going to lash out again?

[poppy5991]

No matter how brilliant of a DM Brennan is, he will never manage to anticipate the antics of the fantasy high crew and successfully avert them. 😂

Brennan: Taking pictures will weaken her and I have conveniently given Riz a video camera on his tie, plus told you how to remove the curse before battle

The gang: Viral shrimp charity party to get viewers for our battle livestream. Gorgug and Fig will give away their entire net worth.

(instead of removing the curse on themselves with their remaining time)

Brennan: Ok

[chungleallthewaydown]

Yes.

[greatestwizardofthisage]

ok what the FUCK

[sleeperagentclone]

I'm gonna cry, what the fuck is going on?????????
