"wyll is boring" "wyll is bland" "wyll is one dimensional" shut up and consider:

wyll is

underdeveloped

and while we shouldn't have to read between the lines larian gave us to this extent, there are enough lines there to extrapolate from. if you use your brain

call wyll boring one more time and witness MY blade of the frontiers swinging toward your face

#i'm so fucking mad at larian. i am So Mad #i'm not trying to give them undue credit because the neglect of hus character absolutely STINKS #but yk. the framework of a character is there. especially if you blend ea and current #use your brain and think about his inevitable internal conflicts. think about how he got where he is. think about the emotional impact of #his lived experiences #think about the pedestal(S) he's been stuck on and his dirty shameful secret that he has no choice but to hide #lest he be ostracized by the people he wants so desperately to protect #think about the compromises to his values that mizora forces him to make. think about how the Line for acceptable risk or sacrifice #must shift as she continues to exert influence over him #think about how rejection drove him into the arms of a DEVIL and the effect that must have had on his 17yo mind #think about the horror of facing the father who rejected him when he was a CHILD. think about the agony of having to choose between #saving that very same shit father or freeing himself from mizora #think about his disillusionment. think about his sense of duty. think about that sense fracturing #think about what might have happened if he hadn't met The Squad. if he'd never received unconditional acceptance #the first unconditional acceptance of his life i might add #we don't send him away if he's not useful. we don't reject him for being a warlock. we don't hold him to an impossible standard #has he ever had that before?#USE YOUR BRAIN #think about how important this group must become to him. think about #RAUGHHHHH #think about. if he would sell his soul to protect strangers. think about what he would do to protect the people who accept and care about #and respect and enourage him #THINK about what extremes he could be pushed to #bg3 #wyll ravengard #leo.txt
