The Story Of Gildedguy
Before we discuss how to get the Gildedguy skin in Fortnite, let’s find out who is Gildedguy.
Gildedguy is a Dojo Duelist character created by Michael Moy who goes by the same online name Gildedguy (Michael Moy). For the uninitiated, Dojo Duels is a system, much like RHG (Rock Hard Gladiators), where one animator or artist challenges another to battle each other’s Duelist character.
The backstory of Gildedguy goes something like this: He was once a house painter resident who took pleasure in little things but also wished that his life was a bit more exciting. One day, he uses a slushy substance on his paintbrush to draw knight armor and a sword. Mysteriously, the art turns into life with an actual golden armor for him.
Surprised by this, Gildedguy sets out to know more about the mysterious paint. He ends up quitting his job as a painter and turns into an artist. In his current state, he experiences takes part in battles with other such fictional characters. (Source)
