homestuck au of legend of zelda but Zelda, Link, and Ganon are all time players and there's not a single space player so it's basically an endless invalid session

[freevibedotcom]

went back and read over the brainstorming notes for a homestuck au of my ttrpg campaign i was playing around with a few months ago, and i managed to predict a major plot twist. dismissed it entirely as mere convenience for the au at the time and forgot all about it. i feel insane.

i am still the only person at the table who has ever read homestuck

Spidertroll! Part 2

[nekropsii]

Ok the more I think about it the less it makes sense.

How the fuck does Trolls have last names????

Like they dont have parents and dont have a direct family tree

Like how does that work?? Is there even an explanation in-comic??

Do they just pick at random???? But how do they have the same surnames as the danscestors then???

Honestly, I think they have last names just because it’s cooler, and adds to the vibe. You know how it is with “Looks Cool Logic.”

Plus, it helps link certain characters together. Maybe it doesn’t make sense from a textual standpoint, but I can definitely understand the decision from the perspective of a writer. Sometimes you just gotta bullshit it. It be like that sometimes.

Godtier analysis/headcanons

I’m gonna start with Knight of Life because that’s mine, then I’ll go with people i know and then I’ll do other ones. (I’m more likely to do ones that aren’t explicitly described in the comic)

Knight: gender neutral. exploits their aspect as a weapon, usually for the benefit of others. usually uses their aspects in unorthodox ways as well, utilizing what they already have. at the start of a session, a knight lacks their aspect in some way(like dave’s lack of patience). knights have been known to assist in the breeding of a genesis frog. exact abilities are unclear, and lean more towards being an active class. a knight’s session often lacks their aspect in some way(the danscestors’ session wasn’t well planned[lacked mind], the beta session’s reckoning came early[lacked mind], and the beta trolls were divided by their differences and blood color[lacked bonds/blood]) so their duty is usually to compensate for that in some way(dave fixing the timeline, karkat stopping gamzee’s rampage, etc).

Known knights: Dave Strider (Knight of Time), Karkat Vantas (Knight of Blood), and Latula Pyrope (Knight of Mind).

Life: empathy, healing, improvement of self and others, plants. life players are nature oriented and creative.

a Knight of Life would likely have some sort of health condition that negatively impacts their quality of life, such as asthma or EDS. they would also likely lack physical energy. A Knight of Life’s quest would likely revolve around improving their physical condition and restoring life to their land(solving a famine that was harming the consorts or something like that). Their session might be barren, or the other players might lack the energy and/or motivation, and the knight would have to find some way to remedy that(although there’s not much you can do for a barren session). Knights of life would do anything to protect their friends’ lives, even take on serious injuries/conditions or give their own life. this knight would definitely assist in frog breeding, moreso than any other aspect.

Personality wise, Knights of Life are likely realists, seeing things the way they are. they would see a broken system and say “hey, that’s a broken system!” they would not just recognize flaws, but they would be upset by those flaws and do everything in their power to fix them. like any life player, these knights love nature, but their view on it would likely strongly revolve around the desire to protect that nature and/or use it to protect their friends. if you are a knight of life, you probably like hanging out in the woods and gardening, even if you’re not exactly the best at keeping plants healthy or remembering to go outside. you might cry when anyone dies, not just your loved ones. knights of life definitely love animals too, even the ones that could be considered “ugly” by others. nothing makes knights of life angrier than when someone intentionally harms an innocent life/lives. 

a Knight of Life’s abilities may include but are not limited to:

-bringing someone back from the brink of death(no resurrection though; knights can only work with something that already exists)

-transferring someone else’s ailments to themself

-plant manipulation(speedy growth, shapes, weapons, etc)

-quickly healing themself and others

-maximizing someone’s performance, including their own

-increasing cell production(to the extent of making someone develop lots of tumors very quickly)

-curing illnesses

-extending someone’s life beyond the natural span

the extent to which these things could do would depend on the knight’s level, and almost all of them would likely not be available/fully available until they reached godtier. it’s likely that a mortal Knight of Life could heal others, at the expense of part of their lifespan or general health.

this was mostly just for fun, but please feel free to recommend which one i should do next! i’ll probably reformat this later, but i’m too lazy to do it now lol

[ask-the-seer-of-breath]

I just noticed something, but it's probably already been noticed, and I figured I ahould ask. The fact that the kids and trolls and their danscestors have alined claspect differences, is that taken into account? For instand, Equius is a Heir of Void and Zahhak is a Page of Void. Same goes for John being a Heir of Breath and Jake beong a Page of Hope. The Heir abd Page thing is juat... coincidence? Or is it something to think about?

It’s not explicitly true, Dave and Dirk are Knight/Prince but Karkat and Kankri are Knight/Seer. Same with Rose and Roxy, they’re Seer/Rouge and Terezi and Latula are Seer/Knight. Now, do have in mind that John’s counterpart is Jane, not Jake. He’s Jade’s.

It’s not much of a coincidence, in my opinion, just a very similar approach. There’s probably not much to look into here. If I had to guess I’ll say it is because of the similarities between characters. Not to mention there are only 12 classes to pick from (if you’re not hardcore like the cherubs). And honestly, Hussie just likes to work with certain types of characters. On top of the fact that the dancestors were probably unplanned, but don’t quote me on that.

Hope this helps with that particular question! It is a very good observation nonetheless.

D --> Ohh? I've seen those around but I don't know if its safe to use around kitties I read once about an oil diffuser making pets sick with mint oil I think it was?

D --> And it made me too nervous to try haha

D --> And oh gosh. Most? Zahhaks are very sweaty so I poked a joke at our collective smell of a gym rack haha

[z-paladin]

late homestuck was racist too the way meenah is is barely an improvement and don’t get me started on damara

Damara is supposed to be satirical of Weeaboos, not the actual Japanese, just as many of the danscestors are supposed to be digs are other internet subcultures.I will say I haven’t finished Homestuck (cause holy shit its long as all fuck) so I can’t speak for the tail end of the comic.

[monggay]

i just remembered that i have. like. almost a full set of alpha beta danscestor fantrolls.

[unbeholding]

Let’s count

Humans: Beta, Alpha, Guardians, Alt. Guadians, Dad (17)

Trolls: OG, Ancestors, Danscestors, Alt. Ancestors (48)

Misc: Black/White royalty, Davesprite, Nannasprite, Midnight crew, PM, AR, WV, Caliborn, Calliope (15)

IGNORING alt iterations of chess pieces, and alt dream bubble selves, and sprite^2s AND lusces AND the felt AND HUSSIE we have 80 characters. With three pairing quadrants and one three person quadrant:

You have 3(80 choose 2) + (80 choose 3) possible ships or

jesus christ, over 90 thousand possible ships

fandoms: wow, we have a lot of different ships!

homestuck: you are like little baby. watch this.

[outragedslime]

this is the first homestuck fanart i ever drew in my life its so fucking old ill put close ups below the cut im only posting this bc i wanna delete the file already but the guilt to my old self is too much to do so without first publishing this

babby kolo had 0 headcanons and knew 0 proportions. babby kolo also thought roses colour scheme was pink and not purpleish. babby kolo used to be so proud of this but never finished it until they hated it

it already was a clownless zone. my young ass knew ..... see the clown always had a bad Vibe for me even before the whole ‘’hey lets murder equ and nep’’ thing. i havent read that far then, most of the stuff here was from the wiki tbh

okay hhghg i had no idea how to draw nep. this image still haunts my nightmares. look at that coat.what the hell. this is not my baby (okay it is but its diffenet... its complicated.........)

o h yea babby kolo also didnt know that the alpha kids or the danscestors existed then

[daydreamingtomatos]

If i have time this weekend I'll write my theory on how the danscestors are made to be the fandom misinterpretations of characters But Cannon has anyone heard this before.

[karkats-longsleeves]
