!Trolls: Equius, Gamzee, Eridan, and Feferi

[[quoteright:153:http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/centaursTesticle_7937.gif]]

---> ''You love being STRONG. You are so strong, you would surely be the class of the elite legion of RUFFIANNIHILATORS. And while such a calling would be quite honorable, you would prefer to join the ranks of the ARCHERADICATORS, perhaps the most noble echelon the imperial forces have to offer. Unfortunately, you SUCK AT ARCHERY. You have not successfully fired a SINGLE ARROW. Every time you try, you BREAK THE BOW. You are simply too strong. You have broken so many bows, it has developed into a habit BORDERING ON FETISHISTIC. You have to stop. But addiction is a powerful thing. ''

A traditionalist troll who staunchly believes in upholding the noble customs and beliefs attributed to [[BlueBlood his blood colour]].

In Sburb, he is the '''[[color:#112554:Heir of Void]]'''. His Trolltag is "[[color:#000056:centaursTesticle]]".

He has filed three [[WeaponOfChoice STRIFE SPECIBI]] in his STRIFE PORTFOLIO: [[GoodOldFisticuffs FISTKIND ABSTRATUS]], [[TheArcher BOWKIND ABSTRATUS]] and [[DestroyableItems 1/2BOWKIND ABSTRATUS]].

----
* TheArcher: In keeping with the Sagittarius theme, considers the bow a dignified weapon of the upper classes. He even begins every line with a symbolic bow and arrow: D -->. He's actually terrible at archery, though, to the point where he's never successfully fired an arrow.
* AntiquatedLinguistics[=/=]SesquipedalianLoquaciousness: He sometimes types like this.
* {{Badass}}: His hobbies include programming robots and TEARING THEM APART WITH HIS BARE HANDS.
** JUMPED INTO HIS GATE. PUNCHED AN OGRE'S HEAD OFF. YEAH HE'S BADASS.
** This exchange.
-->[[color:#e00707:TG: how the fuck do you even wield a broken bow]]\\
[[color:#e00707:TG: did you go around clubbing shit with the two halves]]\\
[[color:#000056:CT: D --> Yes]]\\
[[color:#000056:CT: D --> Sometimes]]
* BattleCouple: With Aradia for a while.
* BigBrotherInstinct: His protectiveness of Nepeta.
* TheBigGuy: [[http://mspaintadventures.com/?s=6&p=004117 Whoa.]]
* BlessedWithSuck: He's incredibly strong, to the point where he can decapitate an ogre with a single punch. He also cannot control this strength, so a "gentle", appreciative pat bruises his lusus (which itself was picked for its own strength), he cannot handle a bow without snapping it in half, and the only person he can hold an intimate relationship with has a robot body that he built himself.
* BlueBlood: Figuratively and literally (indigo, to be precise). He looks down on those from the lower classes.
* CombatMedic: He's frighteningly STRONG, but at the same time, he's kept the more unlucky trolls patched up with robot prosthetics, including Vriska's arm, Tavros' legs, and Aradia's soulbot.
* TheComicallySerious: [[color:#000056:CT: D --> Humorous insincerity is for pedantic wigglers]]
* CulturedWarrior: He collects fine art (or at least what ''he'' considers to be fine art), has an appreciation for nature, and displays a penchant for slam poetry. If you piss him off, however, he will literally punch your head off.
** He also objects to 100d language, leading to GoshdangItToHeck.
* DeathByIrony: He wants so badly to be an archer, but he always breaks the bows. So naturally AxCrazy Gamzee brings him to his knees with an arrow, then kills him with a broken bow.
* ADeathInTheLimelight
* DoesNotKnowHisOwnStrength: He's terrible at archery due to always breaking the bows and he [[AndCallHimGeorge bruises his lusus]] (''one of the strongest creatures on the planet'') when trying to give him "a grateful pat, as gently as possible" for bringing him a glass of milk. Also, he can't drink without breaking the glass.
* EroticAsphyxiation: He starts grinning as he's being strangled to death by Gamzee. He's always had "bloodshot bags" under his eyes (petechia, for those who love ForensicDrama[=s=]), which is probably a hint he doesn't mind his killbots going for the neck.
* EstrogenBrigadeBait: Memetically, thanks to fan association with Nicholas Cage. However, in-universe, he's mostly seen as an intensely creepy pervert by everyone but Nepeta and possibly Aradia.
* {{Fetish}}: Equius gets off on being [[http://www.mspaintadventures.com/?s=6&p=004121 ordered around and chastised by highbloods]]. And by what he considers "depravity" (subversion of the caste hierarchy, such is lowbloods being disobedient or holding authority over highbloods, lowbloods acting dignified and highbloods acting undignified).
-->[[http://www.mspaintadventures.com/?s=6&p=004180 ''D --> It's so magnificently depraved.'']]
** And from getting strangled by highbloods.
* FingerlessGloves
* FurryFandom: His "art" collection.
* GadgeteerGenius: He likes building robots, usually just to destroy them, but he made some prosthetic legs that he let Tavros keep, as well as Vriska's mechanical arm, and a ''robot body'' for Aradia.
* GeniusBruiser: He builds strong and sturdy killer robots, and beats the shit out of them in caged brawls.
* AGlassInTheHand: Happens ''every time'' he picks up any glass because he is so STRONG.
* {{Gonk}}: Has mouthful of broken teeth, blue circles under his eyes that are often visible even underneath his sunglass, frequently sweats profusely and in the Alterniabound segments his hair is particularly stringy-looking. Needless to say he's probably the least attractive of the trolls.
* GoshdangItToHeck: [[color:#000056: CT: D --> Fudgesicles]]
* GotMeDoingIt: He makes horse puns when flustered, much like Nepeta does with cats. Take both of them roleplaying as each other while flustered and you have quite a sight.
* GoodOldFisticuffs: And he's a bit grudging about it, given his preference for archery. But WhenAllYouHaveIsAHammer...
* GoOutWithASmile: Played for both laughs and {{Squick}} at the same time, like everything about Equius.
* HairTriggerTemper: He gets mad pretty easily, which is why he builds robots. He needs something to take his anger out on.
* HiddenDepths: He is, of all things, a pretty good rapper. He even wins a rap battle with Dave (though Dave wasn't taking it super seriously). There's also his [[LikeBrotherAndSister moriallegiance]] with Nepeta and his hobby of making robots.
* HonorBeforeReason / [[InternalizedCategorism Internalized Classism]] / LoveMartyr: Even though he wants to stop Gamzee and save his friends, and he's STRONG enough to [[http://www.formspring.me/mspadventures/q/158881785575405344 easily snap the bowstring with his neck muscles]], doesn't even try to resist when Gamzee strangles him to death because of his STRONG belief in highb100d supremacy.
** [[http://www.mspaintadventures.com/?s=6&p=005331 And this is how reacts upon learning of Gamzee's killing spree]]: [[color:#000056:"Are you saying the highb100d has finally embraced his position atop the hierarchy ... I'm not entirely positive I can raise a hand to the highb100d".]]
* InASingleBound: STRONGJUMP!
* IneffectualSympatheticVillain: He may be a racist asshole, but it's hard to really hate him when his obscene strength prevents him from doing pretty much anything. Plus he's still racist in situations where it doesn't benefit him or even goes against his interests. And he does question it sometimes, and it's almost more like a fetish for him.
* {{Jerkass}}: First-class, at first. He's a genuinely nice person though, although he buys into racism a bit much
* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: As much as he looks down on the lower classes, he readily provides robotic prosthetics to the crippled Vriska and Tavros, and looks after Nepeta as best he can.
* JokeCharacter: WordOfGod himself confirms this. Introduced with his "[[PornStash Fine Art]]" and died as a SenselessSacrifice.
* KilledOffForReal: Godspeed, you lovable deviant bastard.
* KneeCapping: Gamzee forces him to [[KneelBeforeZod kneel]] by shooting him in the knee with an arrow.
* {{Leitmotif}}: [[http://homestuck.bandcamp.com/track/horschestra-strong-version Horschestra]]
* [[LooksLikeSheIsEnjoyingIt Looks Like He Is Enjoying It:]] Rare example that it is [[http://www.mspaintadventures.com/?s=6&p=005346 without sound,]] but [[http://www.mspaintadventures.com/?s=6&p=005347 still]] [[http://www.mspaintadventures.com/?s=6&p=005348 apparent.]]
* MachoCamp: The author has associated him with [[UpToEleven incredibly]] [[FetishFuel eroticized]] [[HardGay masculine imagery]] since his first full appearance, mostly [[PlayedforLaughs for comedic purposes]] or to deliberately {{Squick}} out fans. Of course, he's bi like all trolls.
* MadScientist
* MadeOfIron: Implied as a RequiredSecondaryPower for his SuperStrength, but made more explicit in [[http://www.mspaintadventures.com/?s=6&p=004184 these]] [[http://www.mspaintadventures.com/?s=6&p=004185 pages]], where he STRONGFALLS a significant distance and suffers no noticeable injury. So naturally he's strangled to death like the Hercules' Nemean Lion.
* MeaningfulName: Equus is Latin for horse. Zahhak is a villain in Iranian folklore, who has an older name that means "[he who has] 10,000 horses". He's also known as "Aži Dahāka" in more ancient folklore, a name derived from the Avestan word for "serpent," which would roughly translate his full name to "Horse Serpent." [[http://www.mspaintadventures.com/?s=6&p=004079 Think on that for a moment.]]
** He's the Heir of Void, [[IncrediblyLamePun now devoid of air]].
* MythologyGag / CreatorInJoke: More than any other character in ''Homestuck'', Equius is a reference to Hussie's older work, like his satirical blog post on the paintings that would later became Equius's "fine art" or his death being a WholePlotReference to ''Whistles''.
--> "He was always the troll personification of everything like Humanimals I ever did and put on the internet. [...] I used to do all sorts of weird stuff, reviewing obscene furry pornography, making weird collages involving horses, and just a whole lot of bizarre shit that didn't make much sense, but I thought was funny. The whole span of these endeavors was quite trollish in nature[...] The fact that it puts some people off is part of what makes it funny. So Equius was that entire arena of trollish content, rolled into a character."
* NeverGotToSayGoodbye: He's ''very'' upset that Aradia only said goodbye to Sollux before she exploded, hence why he makes it a point to say goodbye to Nepeta before confronting Gamzee.
* NightmareFuelStationAttendant / CovertPervert: "It would always make everyone uncomfortable when he just stood there. And watched."
* NobleBigot: Towards both Lower Castes and Seadwellers.
* OverprotectiveDad: He seems to have something similar going on with Nepeta. Most notably, he doesn't want her to talk to the "lower-class" trolls (based on blood colour, of all things), and she feels the need to ask his permission before playing Sgrub.
* PetTheDog:
---> [[color:#000056: CT: D --> You e%terminate beautiful, innocent creatures by the hundreds]]\\
[[color:#000056: CT: D --> I can't condone such wretched behavior]]\\
[[color:#000056: CT: D --> Beasts are meant to be 100ked upon with adoration]]
** Later, we find out [[FurryFandom exactly what he means by "looked upon with adoration"]].
** His deceptively NON-abusive relationship with Aurthour might count as this also.
** [[http://mspachan.net/artarch/src/12898624368.png And he prevented Nepeta from playing FLARP, which could've gotten her killed by his neighbor.]]
** Also, he sets aside his racism to build a pair of robot legs for Tavros, who is near the bottom of the blood spectrum.
* PossessionImpliesMastery: Averted with bowkind, played straight with fistkind and ½bowkind ([[DontExplainTheJoke because his freakish strength makes him good at breaking bows]] ([[http://www.mspaintadventures.com/?s=6&p=004727 and killing things with broken bows]]).
* PowerOfTheVoid: Equius' mythological role is the Heir of Void, which may or may not have this trope in effect. Darkleer, his ancestor, was naturally surrounded by a void in Doc Scratch's awareness -- a PsychicBlockDefense against scrying and omniscience. UU mentions in Act 6 that Void powers are about the destruction or obfuscation of knowledge, but how it manifests in an Heir is unknown.
** This isn't so much an extension of his power but rather an ironic subversion, but UU's book that contains Rose's description of what happened in the kids' session was censored by Gamzee with Equius' blood used as ink.
* PrecisionFStrike: Equius considers swearing beneath him, but that doesn't stop him from dropping an F-Bomb when he [[http://mspaintadventures.com/?s=6&p=004178 realizes]] that Aradia, who is at the very bottom of the blood hierarchy, has authority over him as his server player.
* PungeonMaster: Starts making horse puns by the dozens when flustered.
* PureIsNotGood: He doesn't condone foul language (such as "what the hell") or the killing of animals and refuses to pollute his body with "sugary beverages and [[FantasticDrug soporific to%ins]]". It doesn't stop him from being a JerkAss and elitist bigot, though.
* ScaryShinyGlasses: His SinisterShades have this appearance in the dark.
* ShipTease: With Nepeta, although this turned out to be more of LikeBrotherAndSister.
** And with Gamzee [[http://mspaintadventures.com/?s=6&p=004121 here]], to [[ReadingsAreOffTheScale truly astonishing levels]].
* SinisterShades: Broken ones, at that, because he is too strong to ever put them on without breaking them
* SleevesAreForWimps
* SunglassesAtNight: Out of style apparently. And they fall off when he dies.
* SuperStrength: He can't fire arrows because he always breaks the bows, and he's capable of destroying robots with his bare hands.
* TestosteronePoisoning: He loves being STRONG, DoesNotKnowHisOwnStrength, wears a muscle-exposing tanktop and unleashes his aggression by beating the shit out of killer robots.
* ThemeNaming: Equius's Zodiac sign is Sagittarius.
* ThoseTwoGuys: With Nepeta
* TooKinkyToTorture: Getting strangled by a highblood gives him a big smile on his face when he dies.
* ToothyIssue: Some of his teeth have been knocked out in his fights with his robots. (Luckily, they usually grow back.)
* UnfortunateNames: Albeit one he picked himself, for [[FurryFandom obvious reasons]].
* UndignifiedDeath: Why on earth is he [[http://www.mspaintadventures.com/?s=6&p=005347 smiling]] as he is [[http://www.mspaintadventures.com/?s=6&p=005348 strangled to death]]?!
** On the other hand, Hussie maintains that Equius "died a death of supreme integrity." Which is true -- he remained loyal to his ideals of highblood supremacy and extreme squickiness even as he died.
*** "He died as he lived: Sweaty and inappropriately turned on."
* UnstoppableRage: The only safe outlet for his anger is beating up robots inside a steel cage.
* WesternZodiac: Sagittarius.
* TheWorfEffect: Equius finds Sgrub to be a somewhat effortless affair thanks to how incredibly strong he is naturally. Gamzee manages to dominate him completely and utterly through several means, to show us just how dangerous he is now.

[[quoteright:224:http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/terminallyCapricious_799.gif]]

-->''"You get pretty excited by [[Music/InsaneClownPosse CLOWNS OF A GRIM PERSUASION WHICH MAY NOT BE IN FULL POSSESSION OF THEIR MENTAL FACULTIES]]. You belong to a RATHER OBSCURE CULT, which foretells of a [[Music/InsaneClownPosse BAND OF ROWDY AND CAPRICIOUS MINSTRELS]] which will rise one day on a MYTHICAL PARADISE PLANET that does not exist yet. The beliefs of this cult are SOMEWHAT FROWNED UPON by those dwelling in more common lawnrings. But you don't care, you got to be going with what feels right at where your heart's up in, you know?"''

A rather spacy troll, perpetually high on sopor slime, who holds a deep and spiritual awe for all life's miracles, great and small.

In Sburb, he is the '''[[color:#412385:Bard of Rage]]'''. His trolltag is "[[color:#2b0057:terminallyCapricious]]".

He has allocated his [[WeaponOfChoice STRIFE SPECIBUS]] with the [[JokeWeapon CLUBKIND]] [[CarryABigStick ABSTRATUS]], and later the [[ConfusionFu JOKERKIND ABSTRATUS]].

----
* TheAggressiveDrugDealer: Acts as one by the time he meets Jane, trying to push her to buy "potions" that [[TheSecretOfLongPorkPies suspiciously bear the same (blood) colors and promised traits as the dead trolls]]. Answer however you want, ButThouMust buy them from him.
* AGodAmI: When crazy, he proclaims that both of his formerly-subdued split personalities are ''both'' of the Mirthful Messiahs in his religion.
* AmbiguouslyEvil: After the Scratch, it's not ''entirely'' clear if he's still working for Lord English (even though it looks as though he's leaning towards being evil again).
** Though Kurloz gave him a part of the Godtier outfit, the scene in question appears to have happened after Gamzee killed Nepeta and before he reconciled with Karkat.
* AnimeHair: Most ridiculous hair style of the trolls, and pretty much any character in the comic.
** FunnyAfro: More or less.
* ALoveToDismember: He was romantically interested in Tavros and dismembers his corpse, sporadically kissing his severed head and saving the body for over three years.
* AlwaysChaoticEvil: Averted. His particular blood caste essentially was AxCrazy, and his Mirthful Messiahs canonically are essentially the Devil and Grim Reaper equivalents in Alternian culture, but Gamzee himself is pretty okay when he can control his insanity.
* AscendedExtra: His solo appearances that weren't as part of the CastHerd prior to going crazy can be counted on your hands.
* AxCrazy: His FaceHeelTurn in Act 5 Act 2 single-handedly turned the trolls' asteroid into a slasher flick. [[HeelFaceTurn He got better]] before the end of the act, though he's still pretty nuts.
* {{Badass}}: Once he goes AxCrazy, he becomes incredibly lethal.
* BerserkButton: The "Miracles" music video by Music/InsaneClownPosse, which he describes as [=BlAsPhEmY=] is what sets off his plunge into insanity.
* BewareTheNiceOnes: Prior to his FaceHeelTurn, Gamzee was easily the most laid back member of his session, but also dealt the most damage out of his entire party during the final battle against the Black King. In a single blow.
* BewareTheSillyOnes: [[MonsterClown Hell.]] [[AxCrazy Yes.]]
* BloodLust: [[http://www.mspaintadventures.com/?s=6&p=005354 Inherited]] [[http://www.mspaintadventures.com/?s=6&p=005355 from]] [[http://www.mspaintadventures.com/?s=6&p=005356 his]] [[http://www.mspaintadventures.com/?s=6&p=005414 ancestor.]]
* BlueBlood: Actually purple blood, but has the same implications, as he's the highest on the hemospectrum aside from the nautical royality. Averted in that he's pretty chill for a hereditary aristocrat.
** Played straight later on when he accepts his role as the heir to the Subjugglators, a line of trolls meant to subjugate the rest of the troll race, and starts calling people peasants and commanding them to [[KneelBeforeZod kneel before him]].
* BreakTheCutie: Averted. His descent into insanity was shown to be incredibly emotional for Karkat, but Gamzee himself ''really'' enjoys it.
* CatchPhrase: [=mOtHeRfUcKiNg MiRaClEs=]. [=mOtHeRfUcKeR=] in general is pretty commonly used by him.
* TheChessmaster: He's capable of some shenanigans once he goes insane, and helped manipulate Vriska's death. He currently is manipulating Jane in ways that have yet to be explained.
* ChekhovsGun: The Vast Honk prophesied by his religion turns out to be [[ApocalypseHow the summoning of]] [[EldritchAbomination Lord English]], the counterpart to the Vast Croak.
** CerebusRetcon: And his Mirthful Messiahs are actually Lord English and Doc Scratch, i.e. the BigBad and his [[TheDragon Dragon]].
* ClusterFBomb: Drops swears incredibly often (mainly "Motherfucker", and any derivative of it).
* ConfusionFu: His Jokerkind Strife Deck gives him access to any weapon he carries, so he's pretty unpredictable, though he never uses a weapon twice. Nobody is quite sure what he did to The Black King that messed him up so badly either.
* CoolBike: [[http://www.mspaintadventures.com/?s=6&p=004374 A rocket unicycle.]] He never uses it but it does exist.
* [[CoolDownHug Cool Down Shoosh-Pap]]: Gets [[http://www.mspaintadventures.com/?s=6&p=005986 a very comforting one]] from Karkat. As moirails, Karkat continues to be a stabilizing influence on Gamzee.
* CuteAndPsycho: His quiet personality, the one that speaks in lowercase, is cheerful and polite, but is still equally as psychotic as the loud personality.
* DangerouslyGenreSavvy: Which is what makes him an especially good [[TheChessmaster Chessmaster]].
* TheDitz
* DissonantSerenity: His usual personality. He's pretty chill with the fact that Sollux died. When he's talking in lower case, he's pretty much chill with everything including his desire to murder everyone he knows. [[color:#2b0057:hooooooooooonk ;o)]]
* EasilyForgiven: [[http://www.mspaintadventures.com/?s=6&p=005996 At least by Karkat]]. Kanaya still wants to murder him however.
* EruditeStoner
* EvilCostumeSwitch: Or at least, typing style switch. When sober, [=He GoEs FrOm TyPiNg LiKe ThIs=] to alternating between all lowercase THEN GOING ALL MOTHERFUCKIN CAPS KARKAT STYLE.
** After his FaceHeelTurn, he remains scarred from his self inflicted injury from Nepeta's claws.
* EyeTake: [[http://www.mspaintadventures.com/?s=6&p=005422 Shared with Vriska]] in surprise to...[[CrowningMomentOfFunny someone]] [[CrowningMomentOfAwesome walking]].
* FaceFramedInShadow: In the two parts of ''Openbound'' that he appears in, his actual face can't be seen. His blood's visible, though.
* FaceHeelRevolvingDoor: Gamzee has gone crazy, become sane again, and currently seems to be crazy again. He's also been suggested to be working with Doc Scratch and Lord English, and is very fond of Cal.
** His codpiece outfit that he's been seen wearing in Act 6 was given to him by Kurloz Makara, who explicitly stated that both of them were in service to Lord English.
* FaithHeelTurn: Seen [[http://www.mspaintadventures.com/scratch.php?s=6&p=005927 here]].
* FanNickname: Gamzee's God Tier Bard of Rage outfit has been referred to as "Cod Tier", after it's notable codpiece.
* FlashStep: [[http://mspaintadventures.com/?s=6&p=005618 Rivals]] [[http://mspaintadventures.com/?s=6&p=005620 Dirk]] [[http://mspaintadventures.com/?s=6&p=005621 in this]] [[http://mspaintadventures.com/?s=6&p=005622 regard.]]

** As it turns out, he's also in a Spade-Quadrant relationship with Terezi.
* FluffyTheTerrible: "Gamzee" is a real-world Turkish name that means "Dimple".
** GenderBlenderName: And it's typically a female name at that.
* FromNobodyToNightmare
* GagPenis: His cod piece is rather large; however it serves primarily as a MythologyGag to ''Bard Quest'', as it's not even known if Trolls '''have''' penises.
** If Kurloz's mission is of any indication, it's part of something more sinister. No, really.
* GodNeverSaidThat: Popular {{Fanon}} holds that Gamzee went crazy in part because of ParentalAbandonment from his lusus and finding Tavros's corpse. Neither of these things were shown in canon. Hussie attempted to [[{{Jossed}} Joss]] the former by showing the wild seagoat on Jake's island to be a monstrous animal intent on chasing and eating Jake, while Gamzee was shown to be crazy before he possibly could have found Tavros's corpse.
* GoodScarsEvilScars: Evil and self inflicted.
* GroinAttack: [[http://www.mspaintadventures.com/?s=6&p=005424 The victim of one.]]
* HeroicComedicSociopath: While he's sober and trying to help Jane, he skirts around on this line. Namely, he calmly throws the corpses of Tavros and Vriska into Jane's Sprite in order to help her out. While she screams her lungs out.
* HeterosexualLifePartners: Initially with just about everyone. When he goes crazy, it's subverted, as the only thing he wants to do with them is make fingerpaintings out of their blood.
** Subverted between him and Tavros as shown in [[http://www.mspaintadventures.com/scratch.php?s=6&p=005886 this update.]] Gamzee has a crush on him but Tavros did not reciprocate. Eventually turned into {{Yandere}} on Gamzee's part, as he's seen kissing Tavros's ''severed head'' while crazy.
*** And then ultimately DoubleSubverted, as the power of moiraillegiance ultimately reintegrates his two personalities and makes him sane-ish again.
* IAteWhat: Likes to sneak tastes of SOPOR SLIME PIE, which shouldn't be eaten by trolls. In his case it's a good thing as it kept his split personalities merged.
* ImpossiblyTackyClothes: Lampshaded by Jane when she see his "[[FanNickname Cod Tier]]" outfit, which includes a polka dot, peaked, clown hat/hood and the ostentatious codpiece from ''[[MythologyGag Bard Quest]]''.
* InTheBlood: While crazy, he follows the path of the Subjuggulators like the Grand Highblood more closely.
* InventoryManagementPuzzle: He doesn't understand how it works, nor does he care to learn. He just captchalogues stuff to watch the lights. He deserves points for being the first character to use [[http://www.mspaintadventures.com/?s=6&p=003923 the most obvious solution]] for such an abstract modus.
* {{Irony}}: Unlike the rest of the trolls his personality is the polar opposite of his zodiac sign -- Capricorns are supposed to be [[CorruptCorporateExecutive greedy]], [[LonersAreFreaks antisocial]], and [[AmbitionIsEvil ambitious]] while Gamzee is a FriendToAllLivingThings LoveFreak DefectorFromDecadence -- when drunk on sopor slime. When sober, it's straight as can be.
* {{Juggalo}}: The troll analogue/parody of one. Dirk lampshades this by finding the idea of an alien Juggalo ridiculous.
* KneelBeforeZod: His request to Equius before killing him.
* LaserGuidedKarma: He kills a troll nicknamed "centaursTesticle," then Kanaya appears, and [[GroinAttack nut shots him]]!
* {{Leitmotif}}: [[http://homestuck.bandcamp.com/track/miracles mIrAcLeS]] and later [[http://homestuck.bandcamp.com/track/blackest-heart Blackest]] [[http://homestuck.bandcamp.com/track/blackest-heart-with-honks Heart]].
** Even just honking in general is very associated with Gamzee.
* LethalJokeCharacter: He seems harmless enough, but [[NoodleIncident apparently what he did to the]] [[EldritchAbomination Black King]] [[NoodleIncident in the troll session]] was the single most damaging move in the battle, outweighing even [[{{Munchkin}} Vriska's]] final blow.
** During Act 5 Act 2, his descent into insanity slowly showcased the development of him going from Joke to just plain Lethal.
* LightningBruiser: Master of FlashStep and capable of catching a pouncing Nepeta out of midair with one hand.
* LoveFreak
* MadArtist

* MeaningfulName: Makara is the Indian equivalent of Capricorn.
** Makara means blessed. He is a self proclaimed DarkMessiah.
** His Trollian account name is terminallyCapricious, where capricious means "prone to sudden mood swings." Given his sudden turn for the [[AxCrazy quite insane]] now that he's gotten all the slime out of his system, and the likelihood that he has (or will soon have) terminated the lives of some of his former friends, his name seems quite appropriate...
** Karkat gave the kids' universe cancer, but Gamzee [[http://mspaintadventures.com/scratch.php?s=6&p=005929 made it]] [[http://mspaintadventures.com/scratch.php?s=6&p=005930 terminal]].
* MeasuringTheMarigolds: Takes this attitude toward any kind of knowledge, from computer science to lemonade recipes.
** He also has a captchalogue that operates via "Miracle Modus"; he has absolutely no idea how it works, and doesn't want to know.
* MessyHair
* MindRape: His innate psychic power due to his indigo blood is to insert things into people's subconscious, usually in the form of hatred, which also makes said thing real in their DreamWorld. He's done this twice that we've seen, which instilled a fear of clowns in John (creating the Imp Doll in his tower on Prospit) and a fear of puppets in Dave (creating Cal in his tower on Derse). He was not shown using his power on Rose or Jade, suggesting that they might have some immunity to this power. However, seeing as he essentially never interacted with them it may just not have occurred to him to do so.
** HeartIsAnAwesomePower: It's implied that with proper application of his powers, you can make a person go ''insane''.
* ModestRoyalty / RebelPrince: He's only a smidge away from Eridan and Feferi's castes, but he doesn't act or look like it and doesn't seem to care about blood color -- until he's sober.
* MonsterClown: Looks the part, and collects posters of them. He also has juggling clubs, a unicycle and a load of horns. Subverted, however, due to his genial, friendly personality.
* MoodWhiplash: Suddenly appears for a second in the otherwise silly "[S] All: Behold the glory of [the Warhammer of] Zillyhoo" flash, appearing before Karkat just before Gamzee kills him. This was shown later to be an alternate timeline where Karkat never ran the ~ATH program that blew up his computer, which resulted in Gamzee killing everyone save Aradia, who went back in time and corrected the problem.
** At the very end of his MotiveRant at a very confused past Dave for ruining his faith (which he will do later, [[StableTimeLoop as a result of this conversation]]) he suddenly starts flirting with him and asks if he wants to rap. '''"They both then proceeded to have one of the best rap-offs in the history of paradox space."'''
** He unexpectedly appears after the very atmospheric and spooky ''{{Myst}}''-esque puzzle session on Jane's planet in full God-Tier regalia that includes a [[GagPenis codpiece]] and sells/gives her potions that are strongly implied to be the blood of his friends. Just when the audience as gotten used to Gamzee acting silly again, he reveals he ''stored Vriska and Tavros's bodies in Jane's fridge'', tosses both of them into Jane's kernelsprite [[CameBackWrong creating Tavrisprite]], and adds a [[OhCrap "honk."]] for good measure.
* MythologyGag: Gamzee isn't the first [[http://www.mspaintadventures.com/?s=4&p=001195 clown bard]] in ''MSPaintAdventures''.
* NiceGuy: He's pretty polite and friendly in spite of how profane he is. Even after going AxeCrazy, he still has some shades of this.
** FauxAffablyEvil: Became this during Act 5 Act 2. If Act 6 Act 3 is of any indication, he's closer to acting AffablyEvil or even being a NiceGuy ([[AmbiguouslyEvil depending on which team he's playing for]]).
* NoMedicationForMe: It may be improper for a troll to eat sopor slime pie, but Gamzee needs it... or else he remembers that he's one of the descendants of the Subjugglators, and ''both'' of his [[SplitPersonality Split Personalities]] are evil.
* NoodleIncident: How he achieved God Tier or got a hold of Aradia's time-travel music boxes is so far, hand-waived as "shenanigans."
* NotSoHarmless
* OmnicidalManiac: While insane.
* OrwellianEditor: Gamzee apparently went through Rose's tome about the events of the story and censored bits about Lord English and himself by [[http://www.mspaintadventures.com/?s=6&p=007010 covering them up with Equius's blood.]]
* ParentalAbandonment: Gamzee's lusus was never around to teach Gamzee ''anything.''
** AwLookTheyReallyDoLoveEachOther: Gamzee holds his lusus as he dies.
%% There's no indication that by leaving Gamzee alone, the old goat was leading him to become psychopathic. In fact the opposite seems to be the case.
* PluckyComicRelief: Was before graduating to full fledged cast member.
* PowerCopying: A God Tier Gamzee from some unknown timeline (possibly even the alpha timeline) stole Aradia's MagicFeather time crystals and gained the ability to travel in time too, just in time to visit Jane. Credit to him being the first person to actually think to do that.
* PowerLimiter: The sopor slime that Gamzee was shoving down his gullet kept his sociopathic SplitPersonality in check. Turns out to be literal in the case of his MindRape abilities.
* ThePowerOfFriendship: How Karkat [[http://www.mspaintadventures.com/?s=6&p=005996 cured]] his [[AxCrazy ax craziness]].
* PunctuatedForEmphasis: His response to seeing Insane Clown Posse's music video for [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_-agl0pOQfs their song Miracles]].
--> [[color:#2b0057:This. Is. Motherfuckin'. [=BlAsPhEmY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!=]]]
* ReflectiveEyes: Shown [[http://www.mspaintadventures.com/?s=6&p=005119 here]] fondly regarding Jadesprite's prototyping off the computer screen.
* ReligionOfEvil / KillEmAll / TogetherInDeath / MurderIsTheBestSolution: This is what (sopor) Gamzee actually belives.

** Subjugglators make "humorous" sacrifices [[http://www.mspaintadventures.com/?s=6&p=005414 in anticipation of the Vast Honk]], which was ultimately revealed to be Lord English.
* ScarsAreForever: When he shows up on Jane's planet he still has the scars from Nepeta's claws despite an unknown amount of time passing.
* SerialKiller: When sober.
* ShipperOnDeck: Appears to ship Karkat/Terezi [[http://www.mspaintadventures.com/scratch.php?s=6&p=005743 here]].
* ShoutOut: He's become a murderous MonsterClown who caused one of his victims to die with a smile on his face, wears smeared makeup all over his now scarred face. Oh, and his trademark colour is purple. [[{{Batman}} Sound like anybody you know?]]
** After taking a graceful swan-dive off the deep-end, he describes his former "mental instability" and sums up his new-found "lucidity" to Karkat thusly:

* SignatureSoundEffect: honk HONK
* TheSlacker
* SlasherSmile: With his FaceHeelTurn, his partially-shown grinning smile [[http://www.mspaintadventures.com/?s=6&p=005119 here]] qualifies.
** Let's just say that Gamzee has [[http://www.mspaintadventures.com/?s=6&p=005342 completely]] [[http://www.mspaintadventures.com/?s=6&p=005344 mastered]] the art of the SlasherSmile.
* [[InsaneEqualsViolent Sober Equals Violent]]: But it's justified in that according to troll society's expectations of his blood caste, Gamzee as a murderous sociopath is actually more normal than as a blissed-out spacecase.
* SnakeOilSalesman: While peddling his "potions" to Jane.
* SplitPersonality: The reason for Gamzee's writing style is because he has two personalities, both of them evil, but normally kept in check by his consumption of sopor slime. Too bad he ran out of slime...
** SplitPersonalityMerge: Inverted. He began with them merged, but then he ran out of slime.
* TheStoner: All the potions he sells/gives to Jane are 420 Boonbucks, and that update came out around 4/20/2012.
* StonersAreFunny
* SuddenlyShouting: His trademark speech quirk when sober. The other characters even [[LampshadeHanging complain about it]].
* SuperpoweredEvilSide: Subverted; he has ''two'' evil sides, and sort of has a [[LordOfTheRings Smeagol and Gollum]] type of thing going on. They're normally [[SplitPersonalityMerge merged together]] thanks to his constant consumption of sopor slime.
* ThemeNaming: Gamzee's Zodiac sign is Capricorn.
* TokenEvilTeammate: Slaughtered several of his friends, mutilated the corpses of others, and is implied to still be working against them with the help of his even eviller ancestor.
* TotallyRadical: More than half of the things he says.
* TrademarkFavoriteFood: Faygo, like many Juggalos.
* {{Tuckerization}}: Inadvertently. Gamzee was named after a Turkish fan who had been roleplaying as him on Formspring. Her friends repeatedly suggested her name as a joke and added an e [[note]] Her name being only five letters long as Gamze. Other suggestions included Gamzel[[/note]], and Andrew assumed that it was a MeaningfulName and used it. That's right, the terrifying unstoppable killer's name means "Dimple". That does however make Gamzee the only troll with a an actual real world name.
* TheUnreveal: Fans demanded to know Gamzee and Eridan's titles in Sgrub. When Gamzee's came up in his conversation with Dave, he'd actually ''forgotten'' half of it. The title remained this way until it was stated by Karkat to be The Bard of Rage.
* UnstoppableRage: Presumably his power as Bard of Rage.
* VitriolicBestBuds: Calls Karkat his best friend. In return, Karkat loathes him like hell. [[JerkWithAHeartOfGold Only not really]].
* VoiceOfTheLegion: [[color:#2b0057:[=HiS uSuAl WaY oF tAlKiNg/TyPiNg=]]] sorts itself into [[color:#2b0057:SMALLCASE OR ALLCAPS EVERY OTHER LINE, which gamzee claims IS HIS TWO ALTERNATE PERSONALITIES. oh, and THEY'RE BOTH EVIL.]]
* WallOfWeapons: Jokerkind consists of [[http://www.mspaintadventures.com/?s=6&p=005352 stacks upon stacks]] of weapon cards, including ones that belong to members of The Felt and The Bunny.
* WesternZodiac: Capricorn.
* WhamLine: [[color:#2b0057: TC: shut up.]]
** To a lesser extent, [[color:#2b0057:TC: honk]] Considering his previous claim that typing in all lowercase feels unnatural, seeing that one word in the picture before even looking at that troll log instantly indicates something is wrong.

* WildCard: Typical of the Bard class, apparently, who UU says "[[color:#929292:are typically known for their spontaneoUs and dramatic story-altering inflUence on the fate of a party]]" and are sometimes known for being "[[color:#929292:single handedly responsible for their spectacUlar downfall or improbable victory. or both!]]" Gamzee was partially responsible for their success against the Black King and definitely a factor in their party coming unglued. UU concludes that the Alpha kids are probably fortunate for not having a Bard in their party.
** And then he inexplicably appears as a God Tier on LOCAH waiting for Jane. On the other hand he seemed to have Aradia's timetables on hand so [[FridgeBrilliance he probably jumped to the past after the meteor arrived.]]
* WoobieDestroyerOfWorlds: He's directly responsible for the creation of Cal and was used by Doc Scratch and Lord English to help destroy the Human Universe.

You have amassed resources and deadly weaponry from around the world for this ambition through many sweeps of EXTREME ROLE PLAYING, while pursuing a working DOOMSDAY DEVICE which will bring armageddon to all those on the surface. Haven't had much luck with that, but maybe tonight's your night."''

A noble of the troll Nautical Aristocracy with a borderline-genocidal distaste for land dwellers, which he's perfectly willing to overlook should it serve his purposes.

In Sburb, he is the '''[[color:#c7a419:Prince of Hope]]'''. His trolltag is "[[color:#6a006a:caligulasAquarium]]".

He has allocated his [[WeaponOfChoice STRIFE SPECIBUS]] with the [[HarpoonGun RIFLEKIND ABSTRATUS]].

----
* AnimeHair
* AnythingThatMoves: Eridan's continual failure at romance leads to a downward spiral of neediness and desperation that causes him to gradually regard matters of blood colour, species and crippling sociopathy as inconsequential downsides to a prospective romance partner.
* AssholeVictim
* AxCrazy: He made it a point to kill his session's ''allied'' constructs despite the fact that they didn't give any grist.
* BadassCape
* BadPowersBadPeople: Revealed well after his FaceHeelTurn, Eridan's title, the "Prince of Hope" is "one who destroys hope, or destroys using hope." Eridan decided to go with the former.
* [[BitingTheHandkerchief Biting The Scarf]]: When he realizes that his Caliginous feelings for Sollux are pathetically obvious.
* BlackMagic: Inverted in name as "White Science" due to Eridan's insistence that belief in magic is for wrigglers but otherwise played completely straight. [[http://www.mspaintadventures.com/?s=6&p=004947 Kanaya claimed to have trained him]] in White Sorcery to rival Rose. Or at least, she made him a light-based magic wand to shut him up. However, Light & Dark symbolism is inverted for trolls, and his "Empiricist's Wand" is entirely used to destructive ends.
* BlatantLies: In one of his memos, Karkat accuses Eridan of still trying to kill the angels. Eridan denies it, while his AHAB'S CROSSHAIRS are in his hands. [[CompletelyMissingThePoint He also thinks Karkat is hitting on him]].
* BloodFromTheMouth: When [[http://www.mspaintadventures.com/?s=6&p=005435 cut,]] and [[http://www.mspaintadventures.com/?s=6&p=005437 dead.]]
* BreakTheHaughty: He tries so hard, thinking he is the best, leading him to get rejected by [[strike:every female]] [[AnythingThatMoves everyone]] he tries to hit on. Then he gets a White Wand, KO's Sollux in a possible duel to the death, and blasts Feferi to death through the chest. And that's just for starters...
* ButtMonkey: Poor Eridan just can't seem to catch a break. He's a giant bundle of insecurities under the regal pretensions, and getting pre-emptively rejected by Feferi only to develop blackrom feelings for the guy she chose over him didn't help. He might just be the most pathetic out of all the trolls, since while even Tavros eventually got his robot legs and slightly less antagonism from Vriska, Eridan is still stuck with everyone thinking he's a tool.
* CannotSpitItOut: Averted when he reveals his flushed feelings for Feferi early on. They've both been carefully considering their feelings for a long time, and independently resolve that for good or ill, this night is the night upon which they each pour out their heart to the other. Unfortunately for Eridan, Feferi is emotionally burnt out from keeping him in check and staving off his constant attempts at genocide upon the lower social classes, and wants to downgrade the relationship from moirallegiance to [[LetsJustBeFriends platonic friendship]].
* ClarkesThirdLaw: Despite his own aspirations to be a wizard, he's convinced at this point that magic is not real, and that anything that appears to be magic is just highly advanced technology. Even after Kanaya makes him a science wand, he simply proclaims himself to be a "[[color:#6a006a:mighty wwizard of wwhite science]]"
* ClusterFBomb: He swears quite a lot, though not as much as Gamzee.
* ContinuityNod: Resembles a "lame gothy supervillian" which Dave jokingly aspires to be.
** His rifle was first seen with the Uber Bunny.
* DeathWorld: Turns his world (Land of Wrath and Angels) into this by killing the titular angels, enraging them to the point the rest of the trolls were too scared to even consider going on it. This is a race of people who thrive on a complete CrapsackWorld, and they were scared shitless of his world.
* DespairEventHorizon: As the Prince of Hope, he believes he knows when there isn't any, and now? Well, the trolls have no chance whatsoever - their only option, as he sees it, is to join Noir and pray he doesn't kill them. It's reached the point where he dooms his own race to extinction, just to prove there's no hope left.
** It is later revealed that the "Prince of Hope" title can literally mean "the DESTROYER of Hope" meaning he was meant to cause this all along.
* DeusAngstMachina: In essence what happens to him over the course of SBURB. On any other day his quest would have been his perfect power fantasy; an enemy to destroy utterly, angels of death at his command, and a world of temples dedicated to his ego. However, breaking up with Feferi makes him miss this, driving him to reprehensible behavior that isolates him and eventually leads to madness.
* DiabolicalMastermind: He aspires to be one, at least. He's plotted to wipe out all the land dwellers and Feferi feels a need to keep an eye on him and his "nefarious schemes."
** He also modeled himself after famous trolls in history, particularly the diabolical ones.
** Subverted in that he really just wanted to hang around Feferi and the threats were a good excuse.
* DidNotGetTheGirl / IfICantHaveYou: Kills her with his wand after his fight with Sollux.
* DoggedNiceGuy: Was evidently trying to be the patient type, although we join them not too long before the confession, which is rejected because he's a genuinely unpleasant person. He doesn't take it well.
* TheDragon: Wants to become this to Jack Noir.
* DuelToTheDeath: Challenged Sollux to one offscreen earlier. It didn't wind up going anywhere.
* EmoTeen: To a small degree, given his appearance and exaggerated emotional theatrics.
* ErmineCapeEffect: Wears rings and a cape, but that's about the extent of his royal attire. Even without them, though, his outfit is less simple than most trolls.
* EverythingsSparklyWithJewelry: Wears a lot of rings.

* FaceHeelTurn
* FamousAncestor: [[http://www.mspaintadventures.com/?s=6&p=005408 Orphaner Dualscar.]]
* FantasticRacism: He wants to kill all land dwellers, except some of his friends. But at this point it's probably safe to say that he absolutely sucks at being a racist. He only ever says he wants to kill all land dwellers, but he never actually goes through with it and given that he knows that Vriska's superweapon wouldn't work and doesn't care, it's probably safe to say that it's all just a charade even if he did want to do it at some point. And beside that he is genuinely friendly with Kanaya, Karkat and Gamzee and is as genuinely taken aback at Sollux' death. Up until he decides to kill them himself.
** His fish-themed Moirail points out that he's practically a land-dweller himself; he's barely even spent a full day under water in his whole life.

* FoeYay: [[invoked]]Has blackrom feelings for Sollux, his [[LoveTriangle rival in love for Feferi]]. He also had a ''very'' potent rivalry with Vriska back in the day whom he seems to still have lingering feelings for.
* FourEyesZeroSoul: NOW that's he has [[http://mspaintadventures.com/?s=6&p=005243 destroyed the Matriorb,]] which held ''the infant Mother Grub that could repopulate the troll race'', he's got the cold, emotionless, and soulless part down pat.

* TheFriendNobodyLikes: Becomes this by the time the trolls arrive at the meteor, having managed to disturb, piss off, or annoy everyone but Karkat into disliking him. The isolation drives his breakdown.

** Used as a sort of LightningGun / RayGun however.
* HighCollarOfDoom
* HopelessSuitor: In every quadrant, though he pines mostly for black romance.
* IJustWantToBeLoved: And he keeps getting rejected.
* IneffectualSympatheticVillain: As [[http://mspaintadventures.com/?s=6&p=004348 Feferi points out]], none of his plots to kill the land dwellers ever succeed, and every doomsday device he gets his hand on is a piece of junk.
** [[http://mspaintadventures.com/?s=6&p=004339 Your penchant]] for mass murder notwithstanding, people tend to regard you as a BIT OF A TOOL.
** Then we find out that everybody else abandoned him in his game because of his {{Jerkass}} tendencies and the fact he kept killing everything in sight, including whatever the angels were. And then he stops being ineffectual. Or sympathetic.
*** [[DracoInLeatherPants Not that majority of the fans ever caught on to the second part.]]
* InsistentTerminology: Magic isn't real. He practices ''science''.
* ItsAllAboutMe: Eridan is an amazingly self-absorbed character, often whining about how hard he has it or how no one understands him and never really listening to criticism. He can even forget stuff people said ''in the same conversation'' if he doesn't want to hear it, such as how he wasn't supposed to be killing his angels.
* {{Jerkass}}: It says a lot that even Kanaya can't stand him and that ''Equius'' of all people thinks he's a creep.
* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: For a guy who wants to kill all land-dwellers, [[http://www.mspaintadventures.com/?s=6&p=004365 he certainly put a lot of work into saving them]].
** Of course, since he's killed his MoralityChain, all bets are off now.
* KickTheDog: Deliberately blew up the matriorb, destroying all hope for his species, which is what he always meant by "helping" Kanaya.
* KilledOffForReal: Comboed with a CallBack, LudicrousGibs, and HalfTheManHeUsedToBe. [[http://www.mspaintadventures.com/?s=6&p=005435 Here.]]
** DeathByIrony: He white-laser-beams Kanaya through her midsection; in turn, she kills him by chainsawing through his torso.
* KnightOfCerebus: Killing off two of his fellow trolls -- and two of the most unambiguously ''good'' trolls, to boot -- sent Eridan firmly into KnightOfCerebus territory. Especially because it's when the trolls hit their DarkestHour.
* KnightTemplar: His ulterior motives all hinge around the concept of hope, and he was planning on joining Jack because his friends would otherwise be doomed. But he takes this ''[[JumpingOffTheSlipperySlope way]]'' [[JumpingOffTheSlipperySlope too far.]] He decides that hope is his to do with as he wishes. As such, he destroys the Matriorb, the troll race's only hope of further propagation.
* LargeHam: He deliberately attempts to craft an image for himself as a legendary conquerer through exaggerated emotional theatrics. But it backfires, people just think he's a tool.
* [[{{LARP}} (F)LARP]]: Through his character Orphaner Dualscar.
* [[LesCollaborateurs Le Collaborateur]]: Somewhat subverted in a sense, he doesn't seek to join Jack out of a desire to get revenge on his fellow Trolls, but rather thinks that it's the only way to survive.
* {{Leitmotif}}: [[http://homestuck.bandcamp.com/track/eridans-theme Eridan's Theme]]
** Now with [[http://youtu.be/Hx4MkLceyn0 lyrics from General Ivan.]]
* LightIsNotGood: Wielding white science to heroine Rose's black magic. Don't forget, light/dark symbolism is reversed for trolls.
* LookingForLoveInAllTheWrongPlaces: Eridan just can't win on any quadrant. Feferi [[LetsJustBeFriends didn't really reciprocate his feelings]], Vriska just got bored of their rivalry, his attempts to start a new rivalry with Sollux are painfully obvious and fall flat, Rose responded to his clumsy flirtation by blowing up his computer, and Jade flatly only tolerated him long enough for him to leave her alone.
** Oh, ''and'' Terezi doesn't want to auspistice between him and Sollux, Karkat wouldn't touch him with a ten-foot pole, ''Equius'' is made uncomfortable by his advances (though in which quadrant, it's not specified), and his own client player Nepeta spectacularly failed to fall in love with him for saving her life in the same way Feferi did with Sollux.
* LoveHurts
* LoveMakesYouEvil: Arguably. ''Killing Feferi'' seems to drive the point home, somehow.
* MeaningfulName: Eridanos was the name of a river in ancient Athens which symbolizes Aquarius, while Ampora is likely from amphora, a vessel used for carrying, among other things, water, in AncientGrome.
** If you shorten it, it becomes [[HarryPotter Eri' 'pora]].
** His FLARP character, Orphaner Dualscar, kills custodians to feed Feferi's lusus.
** His title of "Prince of Hope" was for the longest time considered ironic due to this eventual actions...until UU revealed that the "Prince of x" is "one who destroys x, or caUses destrUction throUgh x". In other words, Eridan is literally the Destroyer of Hope.
** The first part of his chumhandle ties not only into his role as TheCaligula but also according to WordOfGod to his dark romantic obsessions [[http://dl.dropbox.com/u/40585720/Combined_Formspring_Web_Aug-28-2011.htm#mspadventures154128263025812338 via the caliginous quadrant]].
* MulticoloredHair[=/=]SkunkStripe: A purple tuft in the middle. Though the fact that his hair has any color ''at all'' is pretty notable as far as trolls are concerned -- and what's more, he was apparently born that way.
* NamesToRunAwayFromReallyFast: His planet. Anybody up for a trip to the Land of Wrath and Angels?
* NerdGlasses
** ScaryShinyGlasses
* NiceJobBreakingItHero: He killed the local game constructs of his world, and then kept doing so, enraging them and turning it into a DeathWorld that the other trolls were araid to even set foot on.
* NietzscheWannabe: He tells Feferi that, as the Prince of Hope, he is most qualified to tell them when there is not hope left for them, which leads to him attempting to try to join Jack.
* NotGoodWithRejection: His reaction to Feferi breaking it off is just the start of his downward spiral.
* NotSoHarmless: Much of his true dangerousness was hidden behind his status as a joke character, revolving around his repeated romantic failures and his self-absorbed blindness. According to WordOfGod, this was deliberate to make his FaceHeelTurn all the more stunning.
* OminousOperaCape
* OohMeAccentsSlipping: Intentionally. When he's about to reveal his feelings for Feferi to her, he stops typing in his "wweird accent" to show that he's serious.
* PerpetualFrowner: He is the only one out of the main trolls to not be seen smiling.
* PetTheDog: After finding out that he's a genocidal, serial-killer of trolls and their lusii (to feed Vriska & Feferi's lusii) in his introduction, you find out that he knows ''exactly'' how to kill off all the land dwellers. But he won't do it because it would [[MoralityChain make Feferi upset]].
* {{Pirate}}: Used to play Flarp as a seagrift, and was on-and-off an ally with Vriska.
* PurpleIsTheNewBlack: He wears fancy royal-purple clothes, and in regards to the trope's second meaning as a signifier of an ineffectual villain it's pointed out that all his plans to kill land-dwellers never work, he spends more time on land (or at least above the sea) than in the ocean, and doesn't even have enough rage to hate the soda that littered his beloved shore.
* RoyalBlood: Kickass royal blood, as he calls it. It's almost the highest on the hemospectrum, second in their group only to Feferi's.
* RoyalBrat
* ScarfOfAsskicking
* ShoutOut: Couldn't you already tell from [[HarryPotter the glasses, the scarf, or the lightning bolt-shaped horns and mark on his head?]] Oh, and he likes magic.
** Also, when you first see him for real, he's [[MobyDick Hunting a White Whale. With a gun named Ahab's Crosshairs.]]
** Could be a coincidence, but he ''is'' an [[{{Watchmen}} egomaniac who wears purple and models himself after historical conquerors, who causes a huge, squidlike monster to give off a psychic shockwave that kills millions of people]]. And it turns out he's be a bad guy.
** He's also [[ScottPilgrim a hipster who is trying to get his ex-girlfriend back from a nerdy loser.]] Heck, one flash even had the two fighting in Scott Pilgrim style sprites.
* SureWhyNot: The reason he has an interest in wizards is because of people comparing his appearance to HarryPotter.
* SmallNameBigEgo: While he's highly ranked in the hemospectrum, this seems to have colored ''everything'' about him. His Royal Blood means he knows best about everything, whether or not he ''actually'' has any clue whatsoever. For example, killing some of his planet's local game constructs until they were so fed up they were attacking him and any other troll who visited, despite them not dropping any grist. When Karkat calls him on that ''specific'' bit of idiocy, he agrees it was silly of him... then two sentences later he seems to have forgotten that lesson, and is talking about how hard it was to kill them and how he can't believe no one came to help him.
* TeensAreMonsters: At age thirteen, has so far killed countless lususes of trolls, the "angels" from his planet (most likely peaceful), two close friends, and an egg housing what would have helped repopulate the Troll race. With these criteria, could contend for the Trope Page Image, tied with Vriska.
* ThemeNaming: Eridan's Zodiac sign is Aquarius.
* TheQuisling: Went on a killing spree to try to impress Jack Noir.
* TriggerHappy: Enough to keep killing some of his planet's local game constructs.
* UngratefulBastard: Kills Feferi, his moirail for a long time, and Kanaya, who gave him his white science wand.
* UnsoundEffect: His corpse gives off the word [[http://www.mspaintadventures.com/?s=6&p=005437 DEAD.]]
** As did [[http://mspaintadventures.com/?s=6&p=005233 Feferi's]] and [[http://mspaintadventures.com/?s=6&p=005247 Kanaya's]]. [[http://mspaintadventures.com/?s=6&p=005225 Sollux]] and [[http://mspaintadventures.com/?s=6&p=005243 the Matriorb]] come with unsounds of their own, too (all by Eridan's hand).
* VerbalTic: Not as pronounced as Feferi, but being an aquatic troll, he occasionally uses "glub", too.
* [[BlueBlood Violet Blood]]
* WarriorPrince: Not that this is especially unusual on Alternia, where ''everyone'' from the royalty down is raised to fight.
* WeCanRuleTogether: Eridan offers Feferi the chance to join him to work under Jack Noir.
* WesternZodiac: Aquarius.
* WithGreatPowerComesGreatInsanity: Possible, he seemed to have gone Grim Dark for a second much the same as Rose right before his murder spree kicked into overdrive.
* WhosLaughingNow
* YouCantFightFate: Inverted. Eridan insists on his blackrom rivalry with Vriska, but the latter broke it off entirely and avoids him. And then, it's later revealed that they're not only destined to face each other again, but their ancestors in the past also had a similar relationship/confrontation as well. However, [[AnticlimaxBoss Kanaya breaks up the present confrontation and kills him.]]

[[quoteright:176:http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/CuttlefishCuller_5504.PNG]]
--> ''"You would redefine what it means to be CULLED in troll society. Under your rule it would mean caring for the unfit and infirm rather than exterminating them, and you have put this idea into practice by CULLING THE FAUNA OF THE DEEP. You tend to wild and beautiful AQUATIC HOOFBEASTS, grooming and feeding them daily. You capture and cage CUTTLEFISH by the thousands for their own good, and also because they are funny and colorful and you love them. They often swim through the bars of their cages, but that is fine. You run your whole palace as a sort of WILDLIFE ADOPTION FACILITY, even if the wildlife's need for care is dubious at best, and the practice really just amounts to an elaborate ROLE PLAYING SCENARIO. It's still fun though."''

The sea-dwelling heiress apparent to the throne of the Alternian Empire, she is determined to one day make a better life for trollkind.

In Sburb, she is the '''[[color:#78ab5f:Witch of Life]]'''. Her trolltag is "[[color:#77003c:cuttlefishCuller]]".

She has allocated her [[WeaponOfChoice STRIFE SPECIBUS]] with the [[DoubleWeapon 2x]][[ProngsOfPoseidon 3DENTKIND ABSTRATUS.]]

----
* [[AllGirlsLikePonies All Girls Like Sea Ponies]]
* AllGirlsWantBadBoys: Previously in a relationship with Eridan, a wannabe villain who later [[FaceHeelTurn Face Heel Turns]] and becomes a real villain. Currently in a relationship with Sollux, where she seems to find his grouchy, negative side attractive.
** Subverted in Eridan's case: it was those very "bad boy" traits that eventually drove her away from him.
* [[AbusiveAlienParents Abusive Alien Lusii]]: Arguably. Fef seems to have a real affection for her lusus but she's an EldritchAbomination miles long, and can cause [[ApocalypseHow X-4 apocalypse]] if she gets extremely hungry and any voice above a whisper causes trolls to start dying. Though it's hardly Gl'bgolyb's fault that her voice just happens to be a BrownNote to trolls and she was more than willing to sacrifice her life to help Feferi to safety. This is in stark contrast to Vriska, who has a similar deal but her giant spider will make sure to put HER on the menu should she not keep the food on the table.
* BetterAsFriends: When Eridan finally reveals his feelings for her, she politely rejects him, much to his disappointment, but she says [[LetsJustBeFriends they should still be friends]]. This does NOT end well for her or Eridan.
* BewareTheNiceOnes: She's very hard to piss off, but doing so makes her fly into a rage that can really only be stopped by ending her life. Fanon is currently running wild determining what exactly is going to happen to Eridan when he gets killed thanks to her being friends with the [[EldritchAbomination horrorterrors]]. Beyond that, she's easily the nicest troll, but even then you still have to put up with her being very unsettling at times.
* ConditionedToAcceptHorror: More than most trolls, considering her lusus is the EldritchAbomination that can kill the whole species if its voice ever gets above a whisper (and it does). Compared to that, [[http://www.mspaintadventures.com/?s=6&p=004748 all the other Horror-Terrors Of The Furthest Ring are nothing.]]
* DidWeJustHaveTeaWithCthulhu: Feferi has no issue with Horrorterrors at all. They're FRI--ENDLY!
* DissonantSerenity: Even as her friends start to split off into various [[DwindlingParty parts of the lab]], Feferi seems oddly calm about the whole ordeal.
** She quite happily accepts her death and even has a casual conversation with Jade before just blurting out that she's dead.
* DoubleWeapon: ΨDON's[[note]]The Greek letter Psi (ψ)[[/note]] ENTENTE, a DOUBLE CULLING FORK.
* DreamWeaver: Implied to be one of her abilities as the Witch of Life: ''It is the past, brought back to life by a witch!''. Also being (meta)physically located in the furthest ring due to being dead helps. Considering it's not all that easy for someone without a clear concept of time to navigate between bubbles, the fact that she can means she must have some ability in this regard.
* ErmineCapeEffect
* EverythingsBetterWithPrincesses: Her preeminent blood makes her heir apparent to the Alternian empress.
* EverythingsSparklyWithJewelry: She's decked out in it.
* EverythingsSquishierWithCephalopods: Her pet cuttlefish, which she keeps by the thousands because they are funny and colorful and she loves them. Also her lusus, a very Cephalopod-like Eldritch Abomination.
* ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin: The first thing she's seen doing is culling cuttlefish (though it turns out she has a different definition of "culling" than we do).
* {{Expy}}: Shares a lot of traits with Jade, such as having a deadly powerful guardian, being a Witch of Something, being free spirited, and being the weird one among their respective circles. Partially because of this, in Act 5 Jade underwent a lot of CharacterDevelopment and they're not as comparable after.
* [[FishPeople Fish Trolls]]
* {{Foreshadowing}}: She did say she was [[http://www.mspaintadventures.com/?s=6&p=005233 D-----EAD]], after all.
** Also, the title is said to challenge the player. So why would a title like Witch of Life challenge her unless she were to die?
* [[BlueBlood Fuchsia Blood]]
* GenkiGirl: She's ''very'' -EXCIT-ED! about Sgrub, and everything in general.
* GogglesDoNothing: She wears them mostly because they're cool.
* HeroicSacrifice: Like with Jade, just of her dream self, though her purpose was to show that the gods of the furthest ring weren't dangerous. Bites her in the ass when she's KilledOffForReal by Eridan.
* IronicDeath: In the sense that the Witch of Life is dead. Also, she's the last sign of the zodiac, and she likely dies first after the Troll session ends. Compare to Aradia, who was the first sign of the zodiac, and died before the session started... but recovered.
* HealingHands: The power of an AlternateTimeline Feferi who went God Tier.
* KindlyVet: Rescues sea animals and helps them get better.
* {{Leitmotif}}: [[http://homestuck.bandcamp.com/track/keepers-bonus Keepers]], originally shared with Eridan, and now [[http://homestuck.bandcamp.com/track/love-you-feferis-theme Love You]] [[ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin (Feferi's Theme)]].
* MamaBear: Mess with her friends and you'll be on the wrong end of a very, VERY angry fish troll and her 2x3dent. [[DoubleWeapon Not that there's a right side, really.]]
* [[ManicPixieDreamGirl Manic Peixes Dream Girl]]: For Eridan, and possibly also for Sollux.
* MeaningfulName: Feferi is a corrupted form of pfefferi, a poisonous species of cuttlefish. Peixes is Portugese for Pisces (and just plain 'fishes', for that matter).
* TheMessiah: If it weren't for Alternia's annihilation preventing her reign, her plans would have included uniting land and sea dwellers and redefining culling to mean caring for the unfit and infirm members of troll society instead of exterminating them.
** Later she's the first to suggest simply working together with the humans, and she makes it possible for Jade to communicate with the dead trolls via dream bubbles. Or at least Jade wants to thank her for setting them up.
** Note that the 'culling' thing might be NiceJobBreakingItHero: As culling is used to feed her Lusus. Said Lusus, if not fed, will wake up.
* MoralityPet: The main reason Eridan hasn't implemented a plan to kill all land-dwellers yet? It would upset Feferi.
** MoralityChain
* MoreTeethThanTheOsmondFamily: Her smile is... unnerving.
* [[NiceGuy Nice Girl]]
* NightmareFace: [[http://www.mspaintadventures.com/?s=6&p=004894 "Because, Stupid! I'm D-----EAD!"]] For those who only want to read about it, imagine Feferi's usual creepy smile with ProphetEyes.
* NightmareFetishist: She doesn't seemed bothered by the [[EldritchAbomination Horrorterrors]] while asleep, unlike Jade, Karkat, and most of the readers, and cheerfully tries to convince the others that said Horrorterrors are harmless and even ''friendly.''
** [[JustifiedTrope Justified]]: Her lusus was the emissary of said Horrorterrors.
* NightmareFuelStationAttendant: Because of Feferi being raised the way she was, there are a lot of things she considers normal that even manage to weird out the other trolls, with eldritch abominations just being one of them. Feferi can easily switch from being one of the most adorable trolls to the most creepy, within [[http://www.mspaintadventures.com/?s=6&p=004893 TWO]] [[http://www.mspaintadventures.com/?s=6&p=004894 PANELS]] of each other. To her she's just being friendly in her own unusual way.
* NightmareRetardant: Invoked, after all, Feferi is a fish alien, so what other expression would she have on her face in death than that of a dead fish?
* NoPronunciationGuide: While this is a problem with all of the trolls, Feferi has it the worst. For the record, it's fuh-FERRY PAY-shus according to WordOfGod.
* ObfuscatingStupidity: Among the Trolls, she shares Rose's trait of knowing the most about the Horrorterrors, considering she was raised by one. Plus she makes it so that Jade can communicate with the Trolls via dream bubbles, something the living would not normally be able to do on their own without being God Tier and physically inside the bubbles. So yeah, things are starting to pay off for her even though she's dead.
* ObliviousToLove: To the point of cheerfully teasing Eridan about who he might have red feelings for. Turns out, she got sick of putting up with Eridan's crap especially when he decided to show up in Sollux' land just to start a fight with him over Feferi.
* OutOfFocus: Aside from Nepeta and Equius, who are legendarily ThoseTwoGuys, Feferi has suffered the most out of the Trolls in terms of screentime. Even her plot critical dream meetings have mostly occurred offpanel.
* PoliticallyActivePrincess: Has big plans for social reform, although TheEndOfTheWorldAsWeKnowIt understandably forced her to give up those plans.
* ThePollyanna: Easily the most optimistic of all the trolls. She's -EXCIT-ED about just about everything, is one of the first to step up with the suggestion that they should help the kids instead of trolling them, is absolutely positive the horrorterrors are not dangerous in the slightest, and is quick to reassure everyone that their friends starting to [[DwindlingParty become scarce is not a big deal]]. Not even ''death'' really does anything to dampen her spirit.
* ProngsOfPoseidon: The first kind.
* PungeonMaster: ''Loves'' fish-puns in particular.

* PurpleIsPowerful
* RebelliousPrincess: Has no regard for the hemospectrum and planned to introduce a much more unified and caring order to troll society, though troll society was completely wiped out before she could.
** To cement this, the current empress is her ancestor, and is the polar opposite of Feferi.
* RoyalBlood: Her blood color is unique to her and the current Empress, her ancestor.
* RoyalsWhoActuallyDoSomething: The kind of leader she aspires to be.
** However in Sburb she becomes decidedly more low key and is content with Karkat and Aradia leading the Trolls around.
* ShipTease: With Sollux shortly after the game begins. Later they spend their time together talking about their feelings.
* SpoiledSweet
* StrangeGirl: Even by Troll standards. She points out to Jade that as a royal, [[InvokedTrope it's practically her duty to be weird]], though she probably didn't mean that literally even though she often acts that way.
* SuperStrength: As trolls get higher on the hemospectrum their natural strength increases while psychic ability decreases. Being the highest she possibly can be on the spectrum, she can [[http://www.mspaintadventures.com/?s=6&p=004327 pull a whale]] with ease underwater and [[http://www.mspaintadventures.com/?s=6&p=004369 leap out of the water]] several hundred feet.
* ThemeNaming: Feferi's Zodiac sign is Pisces.
* TookALevelInJerkass: Thanks to character development, she shows a more jerkish side to her, possibly because she doesn't feel the need to be tactful around her friends anymore. Not to say she's still not the nicest troll around, but it is comparable to how Jade is also becoming more unwound.
* {{Troll}}: Pretends to be depressed to mess with Vriska in Alterniabound. It works.
* UndignifiedDeath: Her dream self's death. Yes, she had every intention of sticking around for a front row seat of the destruction of Derse. No, she probably doesn't realize what Jack likes to do when there's main characters about. And as for her actual death, she doesn't even get a step into her charge before Eridan blows a hole right through her chest, killing her instantly. Granted, considering dying has done nothing to lower her spirits to the point where she's able to proclaim she's dead with a huge grin on her face, she herself doesn't exactly treat her death with any dignity.
* UnstoppableRage: As hard to piss off as it is, it only comes natural that [[http://www.mspaintadventures.com/?s=6&p=005227 when she DOES get angry]], [[http://www.mspaintadventures.com/?s=6&p=005229 she means business]].
* VerbalTic: Glub glub glub glub glub!
* WellExcuseMePrincess: She's very friendly -- probably one of the most friendly trolls, along with probably Nepeta. That doesn't keep her from mocking Eridan and calling Jade a retard.
** On the other hand, Feferi was very patient with Eridan and he still managed to get on her bad side. As for Jade, she's likely not entirely all together at the moment, with being dead and all.
* WesternZodiac: Pisces.

** [[AssPull As it turns out]], he's also in a Spade-Quadrant relationship with Terezi.

* AGodAmI: When crazy, he proclaims himself to be above everyone else

** To cement this, the current empress is her ancestor, and is basically the [[CompleteMonster polar opposite]] of Feferi.

* HeroicComedicSociopath: While he's both sober and good, he skirts around on this line. Namely, he calmly throws the corpses of Tavros and Vriska into Jane's Sprite in order to help her out. While she screams her lungs out.

* KneelBeforeZod

** CerebusRetcon: And his Mirthful Messiahs are actually Doc Scratch and Lord English, i.e. the BigBad and his [[TheDragon Dragon]].

** At this point it's all but directly stated that he's taken a final FaceHeelTurn and is working for Doc Scratch and Lord English.

* TedBaxter: While he's highly ranked in the hemospectrum, this seems to have colored ''everything'' about him. His Royal Blood means he knows best about everything, whether or not he ''actually'' has any clue whatsoever. For example, killing some of his planet's local game constructs until they were so fed up they were attacking him and any other troll who visited, despite them not dropping any grist.
