Character: Gilgamesh
Current Canon Point: post-Camelot
Updated Canon Point: post-Shinjuku
Updated Background:
Background events like Chaldea Summer Memory/Heat Odyssey, Prisma Codes, Return of Nerofest, Super Ghouls'n Goblins, The Little Santa Alter, Moon Goddess Revival, Vengeful Demon's Wall, and the Valentine's event happened. Gilgamesh doesn't participate significantly in any of these events--Master likely gave him chocolate during Valentine's and he ended up giving them a fancy goddamn bracelet and making fun of their effort to give him some substandard chocolate... while pigging out on all of it. He sends his present from an anonymous king, and while that could've potentially worked given Chaldea has like five kings running around at various times, none of them have quite his level of 'get that bitch lapis lazuli and gold' going for them. At least he didn't try to send master to a sexy lady only waterpark... filled with hot dudes.
He also shows up briefly in Nerofest to be part of a team of bash brothers with his
friendfellow king and acquaintance, Ozymandias. They have a scene where they're both very obviously praising themselves, but Ozy thinks Gil is praising him and vice versa because they are too egotistical (Gilgamesh) and dumb (Ozymandias) to realize any different. This is why they'refriendsclose acquaintances.IN TERMS OF ACTUAL CANON, when we last left off, Chaldea had just headbutted its way through the Camelot singularity, paving the way for the final Singularity located in Gilgamesh's hometown of Uruk. Gilgamesh's Caster version took center stage here, trying desperately to stop the goddess Tiamat from overwhelming his version of Uruk. Archer Gilgamesh aided his master if called, and ended up making an appearance as Chaldea and King Gilgamesh (Caster) tried a last, desperate gamble to stop a sea of primordial rot from overtaking and destroying every living thing--Caster Gilgamesh ended up taking a shot meant for Chaldea's master, guaranteeing his demise... and as he plummeted into the underworld with the defending servants, Chaldea's master, and the gargantuan form of Tiamat herself, Caster made a last, desperate wish to call Archer Gilgamesh's essence into himself, becoming the vessel for himself at the height of his power in order to give Chaldea the one of the last edges it needed to defeat the goddess of destruction.
With Uruk saved beyond Caster Gilgamesh's wildest dreams (500 people left alive, instead of no one but Gilgamesh himself), Chaldea scarcely had time to catch its breath before it was being drawn in to/hunting down the true final Singularity--the Temple of Time, Solomon's Throne. Chaldea's final assault was a desperate, all or nothing coin flip, and Gilgamesh once again stirred himself to come out of the
space where F/SN characters go to not be relevant in the storywoodwork, fighting with other servants against the Demon God Flauros. Flauros, dying and desperate, railed against the servants and the fact that they cared about humanity, despite being mere magic and unfulfilled wishes themselves--and Gilgamesh laughed in the pillar's face (eyeball... thing?), calling it a fool that had already answered its own question and failed to accept that fact.He saw parts of himself in the pillar--in the distant man who'd been a tyrant king far removed from the people he was meant to rule over, the man who'd never had a friend, or realized the worth of humanity itself; but where the demon pillar could only see pain and sorrow, Gilgamesh had come to see the value of life, of humanity as one big, flawed tapestry. He laughed at the pillar's dying, anguished confusion, relished in the delight of battle itself, and then faded to leave the rest to the humans. It was their lives to save, after all--and even at his most helpful, Gilgamesh was still a watcher. The stronger side would prevail, right or wrong; and ultimately, the human desire to live overpowered the sorrowful decision that they must be destroyed.
Roll credits, get a fancy badge, thank you for playing; the servants return to the throne, and Gilgamesh gets to go back to rolling in his treasury, right?
Wrong, it's Nonsense pt. 1.5 time; the rest of the world suddenly exists again, and Chaldea has a lot of explaining to do. While the Heroic Spirits supposedly faded away, Chaldea stored their Spirit Origins just in case shit happened to go down--and guess what? Shit happened to go down. While Chaldea was in the middle of doing some creative accounting in order to protect its lone master, a whole new Singularity cropped up--and considering that the sources of Singularities are supposed to be hella dead, that's a problem. Gilgamesh, drawn away from rolling around naked in conveniently placed golden flowers, helped his little idiot master as needed as she tried to help good Archer of Shinjuku fight bad Archer of Shinjuku while an extra demon pillar popped up like heeey, didn't get all of us, it's weird wiggly roach time! He probably breathed heavy like a big ol' creep because Altoria showed up, and he's weird about Saberfaces, but that's all in a days work for Gilgamesh.
Updated Personality: Gilgamesh's remains an egotistical tsundere with a heart of garbage that's tinted gold. Part of him has warmed up to his little idiot master, with the end of the false Uruk and the defeat of the demon pillars; he remains aloof in his way, loathing and adoring humanity's nuances in equal, confusing parts.
Why should all of this hold such value to you? the demon pillar Flauros asked.
Fool. You have already answered your own question.
With the 'last' great battle, Gilgamesh stands firmly on humanity's side, declaring humans to be worth something--even if he did have a lot of fun destroying the one set of creatures with an ego to rival his. A hero is a hero, even if there are times when he stumbles, and fails, and tries to kill everybody... but that's a different timeline. Gilgamesh remains a jerk and a mentor-figure, in love with himself and probably yelling in the corner with Ozymandias while people try to keep him away from the fifty-odd Artoria's running around.
Updated Abilities: Nope. He's got all his strengthening quests did.
Other: Not that I can think of.
Questions: How much wood would a woodchuck chuck if a woodchuck had access to a chainsaw and a trebuchet? Nothing!
