Im surprised that he hasnt taken some offer from any entity out there for more wealth and power. At this point the horde has to be broke and cant pay for his stuff any more, not that it was all that great of quality.
It would be easy enough to uncover some half wit scheme of betrayal, unless the plot needs it to be a super-covert-mastemind plan of subterfuge.
You have killed enough horde characters for nonsensical reasons. If he doesnt deserve it now (he does) it would be no stretch to make it warrented.
Gallywix isnt even a charcter you love to hate. He is boring and lame, he offers little to nothing for goblin lore, and is holding the entire goblin cast of characters back.
Also, start developing more horde characters. Even after killing off half the nightelves in that mess teldrasil, it feels like they still have a larger roster than the entire horde.
Make it part of a horde redemption arc. Goblins can build the night elves a new tree, a better tree, a mecha tree.
How can you say that about Warchief Gallywix! (who will come after 1 expansion of Warchief Baine before they kill him offscreen so they can do the faction war again)
Gallywix shouldnât be killed. Just cosmically shamed and made bankrupt. Personally, I like the idea of him becoming Trade Prince Gazloweâs bootlicking yes man who plots to usurp him behind his back, even though Gazlowe knows full well what the plan is every time.
Gallywix has got good instincts. Considering all heâs done and gotten away with, he has to. He seems to know exactly where âfar enoughâ is, which stops him from going all in on completely evil messes that are doomed to inevitable failure. Canât make money if youâre dead after all. You can bet that if/when Sylvanas goes down, sheâll look to her side for Gallywix and find heâs already on the other team.
Gally is the little slime ball who is concerned with profit and comfort more than power. Heâd never want to be warchief. Let someone else set the world on fire- but heâll happily sell them the matches.
Of course, Warchief Gally would probably result in a massive amount of exploitation and annihilation of the natural resources of a world that seems remarkably fragile most of the time.
On the other hand, the average Horde citizen would probably enjoy a significantly higher standard of living- provided they werenât being worked to death. Also, youâd only be able to pay for anything with Bilgewater script. Fortunately, thatâs also what youâre paid in! Gally will take gooooood care of you.
Whatâs not fun about Gazlowe or Mida? The Mechagon intro was one of the most fun story moments in years, ingeniously using a gnome as a human shield to prevent imminent vaporization.
I was never much of a Gallywix fan until Before the Storm.
"Oho! I know that seal!â Gallywix exclaimed, then sipped his banana cocktail. Sylvanas knew it, too. She tore her gaze from the scroll and impaled the goblin with a cold stare.
âYou will excuse us,â she said.
Gallywix made a face and heaved himself out of his chair. âTake your time,â he said. âIâll be in the hot tub if you want to join me when youâre done with this fella.â He waggled his eyebrows, then trundled out.
Pray Gallywix never comes around to collect the staggering debt the Horde must owe him at this point.
After supplying the Horde with massive, flying battle fortresses; enough war engines to match even the great forges of Ironforge and azerite-powered demolishers capable of destroying a world tree faster than an arch demon ever could, Iâd imagine said debt is pretty high.
I like Gallywix as a character. Then again, Iâm a big fan of comedic protagonists who also happen to be total jerks. Always Sunny in Philidelphia, Curb your Enthusiasm, Archer, etc.
I knew there was something going between them! I mean, just look at this cut scene!
Everyoneâs sitting around chatting/drinking. Then this sleezy goblin character saunters up to the female elf Dark ranger and starts to whisper her. Next thing you know, they both get up and walk off together without a word to anyone else.
Anyone whoâs been to enough Roleplaying events knows exactly whatâs really going down.
Pretty soon, Nathanos is going to be sending Gallywix threatening private messages, telling him to leave her alone and insisting that since heâs been devoted to her from the beginning, that he deserves her more. Itâll all culminate with Sylvanas banishing Nathanos for being creepy, at which point heâll call everyone out by posting a notice to the Warchiefâs Command Board in Orgrimmar.
The Horde then collapses. A new Horde is born from the ashes. Itâs one and only law: No Drama.
Thats because no other charcters get expanded on. Horde Intro to mechagon shows a whole varity of goblin charcters that could be tapped into but arnt becuase gally takes up all the govlin screne time.
Youâve met Noggenfogger i assume. That a goblin who not only has a massive tottally legitimately earned fortune but has furthed goblin sciences with his alchemy.
This. He took out the competition but had the forsight to keep one alive. All in the name of finding an island of advanced tech and explosives. True goblin hero.
Gallywix generally takes up very little screen time as far as Goblins go. Heck, BfA is the most screen time heâs gotten since his introduction in Cataclysm as he was virtually absent in MoP, WoD, and Legion.
Weâve spent most of our time since then hanging with Gazlowe, the Gob Squad, and a smattering of other Goblin characters. When we deal with Goblins at all.
