Some Gortash headcanons for the fics I'm writing...

Gortash is older than much of the fandom that ship him like to think. I've given him a birthdate since Larian failed to do so: the 6th of Alturiak, 1447 DR, making him 45 years old during the events of Baldur's Gate 3.

Gortash wasn't a 'hateful child.'

Highly intelligent children have special needs, even when they aren't neurodivergent with insecure emotional attachment, which he was/is. I see him as on the spectrum and extremely high masking. I think he was told to shut up enough times shortly after he learned to talk that he went almost completely non-verbal for a while, and his parents didn't notice or care. When he stopped talking as much, he got into more trouble because he went looking for answers to the questions he wasn't allowed to ask. He started talking more after years of watching Raphael make people magically do what he wanted, sonetimes using nothing more than words.

Gortash can NOT handle rejection.

There are no instances in-game of Gortash being needlessly cruel, of his actions having NO purpose other than the suffering they cause. There are two in which he is excessively cruel, however, and based on the first one I mention, I suspect the second had a similar motivation. His parents rejected him completely, sent him away, and he sentenced them to a fate worse than death. They were probably not happy when he returned, deepening the rejection. They still have a use, promoting him, but Sally is trapped inside her own mind, while Dravo is just a shell.

The other instance of him doing something 'with extreme prejudice' is the Gondians. He's horrible to them, wants them unhappy about everything he has them doing. For this reason, I think that brilliant little boy with a penchant for tinkering dreamed of being a Gondian one day. I think he kept that dream all the way through his enslavement at the House of Hope, and when he was finally free, he tried to join them. And they refused. They rejected him, so he doesn't just use them for his purposes, he ensures that they suffer, too.

Gortash doesn't have time for kisses, he goes straight to the point

Oh you can bet I’m gonna try and do some stuff for this 👀

GORTASH WEEK FAQ

What is it?

A week-long event celebrating Baldur’s Gate’s shortest reigning and only Archduke. 

When is it?

22nd July - 28th July 2024

Where can I find the prompts?

On THIS handy graphic!

What do I need to do to participate?

Simple - create! Use either both or one of the prompts to create something involving Gortash as the main focus of the piece. Then, when the time comes, simply upload your piece/s on the corresponding day using the tag “#gortashweek” so I can reblog it here for the world to see! Closer to the time I will make a collection on AO3 so fanfics can all be neatly organised and in one place.

What can I create?

All artforms are welcome here, from digital art to 3D art to fanfics to creating a shrine in the middle of the forest! (Please do not disturb the wildlife, no matter how much you think it would appease the Archduke.)

If you create it, it’s welcome!

No AI “creations” will be tolerated. If you are caught using AI for anything, you will be rounded up by the Steel Watch and brought in for eternal imprisonment. 

Any limitations?

None at all! The prompts are designed to be vague enough to allow complete freedom all while sticking closely to things related to Gortash. Take these prompts and run with them!

Both SFW and NSFW creations are allowed.

Posts, when reblogged here, will be tagged correctly so that if there’s any content you don’t want to see you can filter it out.

Want to only use Gortash in your wicked schemes? Go for it! Wish to bring in others to ruin his life? The more the merrier! As long as Gortash is the main focal point of the piece, feel free to wreck his day with whoever you see fit.

Great - what now?

CREATE IN THE NAME OF ARCHDUKE ENVER GORTASH.

Ahem. Start planning or working on things you wish to create! There’s just under a month between the prompt list going out and the week of the event, so don’t feel pressured to wait to create things on the day. This is a low stakes event, you don’t have to commit to making something for every day. If you wish to only use one prompt on one day, that’s completely fine! If you want to do all seven days and all thirteen prompts, please make sure you stretch and hydrate yourself while working!

Once it gets closer to the week I’ll put out reminders so that you can, well, be reminded of the event. 

Any other questions? Feel free to ask!
