So, in the original mythos, did Gilgamesh really have a set of gold armor (and why did he have blond hair in F/SN anyway?), or was that some sort of shoutout to Gil's gold armor from the old Tower of Druaga arcade game?

no, he isn't specified as having gold armor nor blonde hair.
Hell, I doubt blondes even existed in ancient sumeria.

>> No.549347

The way he's depicted, he didn't even HAVE armor, let alone gold.

I don't even think this kind of armor existed back then.

Only chainmail existed back then.

No. Just bronze armor.

And btw, Nasu ripped off the gold armor idea from Tower of Druaga. Yes OP you are right.

Wasn't it mentioned that in the last war, Gil was given some kind of elixir that made him physically younger?

Doesn't really explain the blond hair or armor, just wondering if Fate/Zero showed what he looked like before hand.

I think the gold armor and blonde hair was also meant to drive home the whole "I am a conceited chauvinistic supremist asshole jerk" thing gil has goin for him.
