Love this

in my personal opinion gortash is sort of the middle ground between gale and astarion. like he has the same type of ambition as gale, but i do think is motivated by different reasons (also, unlike, gortash i think gale is wayyyyy more likely/capable of taking responsibility for the consequences). while he has the same underlying motivation as astarion (abuse making him want to have as much power to prevent that from ever happening again), but astarion is way more incompetent and less resourceful (i say this with love) than gortash. and here i introduce, inelegantly, the gortash sliding scale:

in the sense that I think a lot of ppl have different proportions for the gale/astarion ratio. personally it's 50/50 for me

In the game files, this is his eye color. Very dark brown. I'm so sorry.

What color do you think Gortash’s eyes are? Black? Because they look like a deep dark navy blue to me but idk it might just be because I’m Cuckoo Bananas.

I don't know, anon, when I stare at Gortash, it's just not his eyes that I'm looking at, you know :P

(that's my joke answer. here's my real answer.)

I've stared at them longer than I stared at my masters thesis, and i'm torn between a very dark dark gray and black. but they could also be hazel, which reflects a lot of colors?

his eyeliner is too dark, too slay! I can't tell that easily.

I need to get to act 3 again and inspect him carefully like a fine work of art I intend to bring home.

but going off pure memory and what I can find quickly on Google search... dark gray.

maybe dark blue, but. that's not really a normal eye color for humans. neither is dark gray but. that's what it looks like to me?
