''[[http://www.mspaforums.com/showthread.php?41238-CASTELOCKED-it-s-a-bloodswap-with-grey-sollux Castelocked]]'' is a ''Webcomic/{{Homestuck}}'' fanfic by [=Thunder Reign=], written as an InteractiveComic fan adventure on the [[MSPaintAdventures MSPA Forums]]. It draws inspiration from ''Fanfic/RedDeadVirgo'' (amongst others) and follows a similar theme with a different approach. It updates with new panels every two days.

* ArmorPiercingSlap: Kanaya to Vriska, after the Nepeta Incident.
Added DiffLines:
* NeverMyFault: As in canon, Vriska has a tendency to justify her actions by saying it's normal troll behavior, [[BlatantLies even when other trolls are being quite vocal about their disgust.]] Granted, what happened to Nepeta ''wasn't'' her fault, but entering a quadrant with Nepeta's attacker, and showing no remorse for doing so, decidedly is.

** Gamzee and Karkat, too. It didn't start that way, but as Gamzee underwent SanitySlippage it increasingly fell to Karkat to keep him in check -- by the start of the story, Karkat's life is almost completely consumed with caring for Gamzee, while Gamzee does very little in the relationship.
Added DiffLines:
* LoveMartyr: Gamzee is so AxCrazy that even [[ActualPacifist Equius]] says that Karkat should just kill him and be done with it, but since Karkat refuses to do that, he has to spend almost all of his time caring for Gamzee, and blames himself every time Gamzee hurts someone. It's gotten to the point where he barely has a life outside of this.

* CloudCuckooLander: Terezi, who was already quite strange in canon, is even weirder here due to [[HearingVoices constant psychic spamming]], as well as [[spoiler: having had to kill her lusus at a young age.]] She has an [[NauseaFuel intestine belt]], and likes to do things like [[NoSenseOfPersonalSpace sneak into her friends' homes and write on their stuff.]]
Added DiffLines:
* IneffectualSympatheticVillain: Karkat believes that, as an indigoblood, it's his duty to oppress lowbloods; unfortunately, he's much too softhearted to do it properly and just gets his ass kicked. Plus, he's usually too busy playing therapist to his AxCrazy moirail to have time for much of anything else.
Added DiffLines:
* MadOracle: Terezi, even moreso than Sollux was. Knowing Terezi, she was strange to begin with, but the constant whispers of the doomed have made her worse.
Added DiffLines:
* ScrewDestiny: Terezi's attitude towards her [[MadOracle abilities.]]
Added DiffLines:
* SelfMadeOrphan: Terezi, as well as [[spoiler: Equius.]]
Added DiffLines:
* WildChild: Like her canon counterpart, Terezi lives by herself in the woods -- ''un''like her canon counterpart, she hunts dragons for fun and decorates herself with their organs.

''[[http://www.mspaforums.com/showthread.php?41238-CASTELOCKED-it-s-a-bloodswap-with-grey-sollux Castelocked]]'' is a ''Webcomic/{{Homestuck}}'' fanfic by [=Thunder Reign=], written as an InteractiveComic fan adventure on the [[MSPaintAdventures MSPA Forums]]. It draws inspiration from ''Fanfic/RedDeadVirgo'' (amongst others) and follows a similar theme with a different approach. It updates with new panels every two days. Or, well, it did, before the proliferation of other popular bloodswaps led the creator to [[RageQuit abandon the venture]].
However, the author started the adventure back up again on the 24th of March 2012. The new thread for the adventure can be found [[http://mspaforums.com/showthread.php?46828-Castelocked-Take-2-In-Fond-Memory-Of-Skullhat here]]. The mirrored version of the adventure can also be found [[http://mspfanventures.com/?s=403 here]].
It follows the adventures of twelve trolls, all who seem rather familiar. To be more specific: It's an AlternateUniverseFic, a bloodswap where Sollux is now an anonymous-blooded hacker and Tavros is the [[BornLucky Emperor-To-Be]]. The title refers to the overarching theme of the adventure, namely the impact the [[FantasticRacism caste system]] has on the trolls, and the social isolation produced from that.
----
!!This adventure displays the following tropes:
* AllLoveIsUnrequited: Vriska for Kanaya.
* AllTakeAndNoGive: Eridan and Tavros' relationship, with Eridan as the taker and [[ExtremeDoormat Tavros]] as the giver.
* AmbiguouslyEvil: Vriska, emphasis on "Ambiguously". Yes, she has convinced herself that [[spoiler:Eridan's paralysis of Nepeta to win her black affections]] is simply trolls being trolls, but she never actually does anything malevolent herself, apart from stalking Kanaya. Plus, it should also be noted that she's portrayed as having a dependent personality, so it's more likely she possesses SelectiveObliviousness when it comes to his utterly selfish personality.
* AmbiguousGender: Equius, despite being as muscled as his canon counterpart.
* AlternateUniverseFic: Of the "bloodswap" subgenre prevalent in the ''Homestuck'' fanfic world.
* BadassCape: Tavros and Karkat.
** CapeSwish: Somewhere, an eyeless redblood is very upset that Karkat has pinched his cape.
* BoldInflation: As in ''Homestuck''.
* BreakTheCutie: Poor Nepeta...
* CoveredWithScars: Feferi, thanks to her robots. She doesn't think the scars are bad, but Eridan does...
* EmptyShell: Aradia is a shade of her former self, barely able to interact with the world.
* [[EveryGirlIsCuterWithHairDecs Every Troll Is Cuter With Horn Decs]]: Vriska used to wear brown-orange bows on her horns, while Kanaya had a green ribbon tied to one.
* TheFaceless: The cast, prior to introduction, were shown as silhouettes in the author's signature.
* {{Flashback}}
* FlatWhat: Eridan, twice, when Vriska proposes her plan to sneakily become Kanaya's server.
* HypnoticEyes: Eridan can mind control anyone, regardless of blood caste, so long as he's looking you in the eyes.
* InteractiveComic
* ItsAllMyFault: Karkat blames himself for Aradia's death because [[spoiler:that was the one night he ''didn't'' force Gamzee to eat sopor]].
* LongHairedPrettyBoy: Equius.
* KarmaHoudini: As of now, Eridan. Lampshaded in his bio post, as his ability to weasel out of bad situations has convinced him he's invincible.
* KickTheDog: More like Kick The Cat.
* KnightTemplar: Gamzee. Donk donk.
* ManipulativeBastard: Eridan, who [[spoiler:crippled Nepeta]] just so he could have a kismesis. Also 'flushed' with with Tavros for the sole purpose of [[GoldDigger Gold Digging]], and strings along his moirail knowing she has a flushcrush on him.
* MeaningfulRename
** Nepeta changed her trolltag from adorableCritters to abaddonCatalyst.
** Kanaya changed her trolltag from gracefulAdmirer to guardianArmstice.
* MoodWhiplash: Nepeta's come-down.
* MoralityChain: Karkat functions as this to Gamzee.
* MurderTheHypotenuse: Eridan to Nepeta.
* PresentTenseNarrative
* PungeonMaster: Equius fills his speech with every sort of plant-related pun possible.
* SecondPersonNarration
* SickeninglySweethearts: Kanaya and Vriska, before The Nepeta Incident.
* SkeletonsInTheCoatCloset: Nepeta's skull hat.
* SuperStrength: Equius and Feferi.
* TheFourthWallWillNotProtectYou: Eridan mindcontrols the ''audience'' into deciding to switch to another character, rather than nosing around in his business.
* UnstoppableRage: Suppressed, in Feferi's case - but it comes out in the programming of her robots.
* WhatTheHellHero: Kanaya was not pleased by Vriska [[spoiler:swooning over Eridan attacking Nepeta]], and calls her out on it.
