History Characters / HomestuckTrollsOne

* NamedWeapons: After entering the Medium, Karkat makes himself a sickle called Homes Smell You Later, and later replaces it with the Clawsickle.

* DoomyDoomsOfDoom: The Mage of Doom of his session.

** Seen for a brief moment in [[https://www.homestuck.com/story/2927 [S] Jade:Enter]], before the demon engulfs Prospit and Karkat's dreamself in green fire, after he heartbreakingly recognizes [[BloodBrothers Jack Noir]] as the demon.

* BloodBrothers: With his session's version of Jack Noir.

* BattleCouple: With Terezi (for a loose interpretation of "couple", since they may or may not have ever been officially together), displayed in full duing [S]: Make Her Pay.

* CosmicPlaything: AND HOW! He's got a laundry list of misfortunes and failures with only two successes to his name: creating himself, his friends, and their ancestors as grubs (several of which have strange mutations, including himself) and beating Clover. He's been killed twice in the doomed-alpha timeline and countless more times in other doomed timelines, has a mutant blood color that could've gotten him killed BEFORE SGRUB, lives in the shadow of Alternia's equivalent to Jesus, had to deal with a bunch of dysfunctional teenagers for quite a while, fails as a leader at every attempt, got woken up before he could get the chance for a hit on Lord English, and gave the universe cancer.

** Suffers a THIRD one right after the previous when he finds out Gamzee is sober and AxCrazy.

** And later by Gamzee, before being kicked into lava.

* InterspeciesRomance: As of the beginning of the second half of Act 5, it has been revealed that he once harbored blackrom feelings for John, as well as potential redrom for Jade. At least enough that he trolled himself over it.

* MasterOfTheMixedMessage: Towards Terezi. By his own admission, this is why nothing ever came of their [[ShipTease Ship Teasing]]. Though being a Troll, instead of flipping between romance and indifference, he was flipping between romance and blackrom.
* MaybeEverAfter: With Dave of all people. [[ThreesomeSubtext And maybe with Jade too]].

** [[https://www.homestuck.com/story/3977 By giving up the search for the final frog]], the Genesis Frog [[https://www.homestuck.com/story/4005 became imperfect]]. In other words, Karkat [[https://www.homestuck.com/story/4017 gave THE ENTIRE UNIVERSE cancer]].

** And then a serious use when he runs Sollux's code, and again when Sollux dies.
** Later, he realizes that his hurry to beat the Black King instead of find the penultimate frog led to the Cancer in John's universe and all the post-game problems in his.

* NeverMyFault: Zig-zagged. Karkat is less likely to accept responsibility for his actions and more likely to blame his [[OtherMeAnnoysMe past or future selves.]] [[MindScrew Even though they're him.]] But when REALLY bad things happen, he blames himself for it if he had even the slightest involvement in it.

** Officially speaking as far as Sburb goes, this is still a mystery, with the Blood aspect being one of the few that hasn't been explained.

-->GG ''[chiding past-Karkat for deliberately misremembering her password, which was]'' IF I HATE MYSELF SO MUCH, THEN WHY DON'T I HATEMARRY MYSELF?

** And his weapon is...a claw-like sickle. Which, given his aspect, might also be a pun relating to sickle-cell anemia, which is a blood disorder.

* SurroundedByIdiots: Karkat practically lives in this trope, particularly in the early acts during his attempt to be troll leader. Unfortunately most of his charges are either [[AttentionDeficitOohShiny easily distracted]], [[DudeWheresMyRespect don't take him seriously,]] or are [[ItsAllAboutMe too caught up in their own agendas,]] all of which results in a regular stream of [[TheReasonYouSuckSpeech angry tirades]] from Karkat. Summed up best in some of the memo conversations, where all the other trolls blithely ignore his rules, don't pay any attention to what he's saying, and hijack the conversation for their own purposes, much to his frustrated fury.
* SurvivorGuilt: Hits him HARD when the "Troll Murder" storyline kills over half of his team.

* SurroundedByIdiots: Karkat practically lives in this trope.

* TheStoic: This is her attitude. "I'm 0K with it" is sort of her {{catchphrase}}.

* ManOnFire: Done to her dreamself by Bec Noir, and how she CameBackStrong

* PowerFloats: Though being dead helps a bit...and just plain being psychic period once she's not so dead and actually not dead at all.
* PrescienceIsPredictable: Gets hit with this hard.

* ShoutOut: [[Series/DoctorWho Eventually becomes an immortal master of time]]. Her second {{leitmotif}}, "[[http://homestuck.bandcamp.com/track/arisen-anew-2 Arisen Anew]]", even contains the top quote on TimeyWimeyBall!

* WesternZodiac: Aries. Her 'arise' part of her handle is an anagram of this.

* AdventurerArchaeologist: She was seen running around and investigated ruins, as well as spelunking.

* UsedToBeASweetKid: Until the [=FLARPing=] disaster.
* WhipItGood: In flashbacks, she has a whip on her floor, as befitting an AdventurerArchaeologist. [[http://dl.dropbox.com/u/40585720/Combined_Formspring_Web_Aug-28-2011.htm#andrewhussie898242917 Confirmed]] to have been her strife specibus.

--->CG: SHE'D BE DOING ME A MAJOR PERSONAL SOLID BY MAKING AT LEAST SOME ATTEMPT TO [[ADateWithRosiePalms GET HERSELF OFF]].\\

* OffModel: No one can seem to figure out how her horns are supposed to work. If you watch [S] Make Her Pay, they're all over the place. According to Andrew, her horns "curl whatever way looks best for the scene".

* TriangRelations: Close to Sollux (and was all but stated to have been his girlfriend before Vriska made him kill her); lusted after by Equius.

** apocalypse''Arisen'' -- Aradia died, and later returned to life.
