1%% There's a new policy regarding spoiler tags, namely that because Homestuck is a free webcomic with no barrier save length to reading and current spoiler tags are so haphazardly implemented, it's easiest for us to not have them entirely. Please do not spoiler tag anything going into the future.

10!!Creator/AndrewHussie
11[[quoteright:154:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/Homestuck_AndrewHussie_5477.png]]
12->[-'''''Webcomic/ParadoxSpace'' Appearances''': "Horse Play"-]
13
14The guy writing the story and the narrator. He's much, much more involved than that would imply.
15----
16* AdamWesting: Creator/AndrewHussie in real life is a soft-spoken individual with an odd sense of humor and little patience for the antics of the fandom. In-comic, Hussie is a completely insane LargeHam who continually mocks the audience, often speaking almost entirely in memes and call backs.
17* AnimalMotifs: Horses are referenced in a lot of Andrew Hussie's appearances, from the "cool horse painting" he has propped up in his study to his belief that his clash with Lord English would've involved a whole herd of them. This is carried over from his real life counterpart, who references horses frequently due to finding them "inherently funny".
18* AuthorAvatar: He's mainly a direct face and voice for Andrew Hussie in his own comic, although he still has a place within Sburb's mythology.
19* BigNo: He lets out a long and dramatic one [[https://www.homestuck.com/story/3387 here]] when seeing Rufio die.
20* BreakingTheFourthWall: He spends most of his early appearances talking directly to the audience and looking through the in-universe fourth wall. Later, [[FromBeyondTheFourthWall he physically smashes]] through a "Fifth Wall" into Doc Scratch's tower.
21* BrickJoke: "[[https://www.homestuck.com/story/2487 I wish those bullies would just leave me alone.]] [[https://www.homestuck.com/story/3070 Later I am going]] [[https://www.homestuck.com/story/3071 to ride a long magic dog]] [[https://www.homestuck.com/story/3072 through the sky]] [[https://www.homestuck.com/story/3073 and fuck]] [[https://www.homestuck.com/story/3074 their shit up]]."
22* ButtMonkey: Every so often he ends up finding himself and/or his study dressed up in a ludicrous fashion, which he isn't too pleased with.
23* ChewingTheScenery: [[https://www.homestuck.com/story/1678 HE]] ''[[InsistentTerminology CONJURES]]'' THIS INTREPID FANTASYSCAPE!
24* {{Cosplay}}: He likes dressing up as his characters. Usually he cosplays as characters that are relevant at that point in the story. ''Poorly''.
25%%* DeadpanSnarker
26* EngagingConversation: As soon as he sees Vriska, he asks her to marry him. She responds in disgust.
27* {{Ephebophile}}: Implied, he's a grown man trying to marry or kiss the 13 to 16 year old Vriska. PlayedForLaughs however, as his advances result in him being beat up or turned into a fool.
28* EvilLaugh: [[https://www.homestuck.com/story/2497 AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA]] [[OverlyLongGag et cetera]].
29* {{God}}: He did create ''Homestuck'' and everything in it...
30* KilledOffForReal: [[https://www.homestuck.com/story/4813 Hussie is shot to death by one of his own characters]]. He later ends up in the afterlife of the dreambubbles and narrates the story from there. The biggest consequence of this, however, is that he now can concretely interact with his characters, despite promises not to, since now he isn't stuck in his own home dimension.
31* LargeHam: Most of his incursions have him rambling in all caps with characters' heads superimposed around him.
32* LemonyNarrator: Hussie purposefully addresses characters like Spades Slick, Vriska, and Caliborn through the narration as if they can read it.
33* MindScrew: In one recap, we found he was only the ''second'' most important character in ''Homestuck''. ''Even though he's the writer of the story.''
34* MrExposition: He has written three recaps of ''Homestuck'' to clarify the story and started a fourth, but abandoned it. Not to mention all the exposition he gives during the normal narration.
35* NoInnerFourthWall: Hussie interferes with the events of the story he's writing, but his actions are also a comically exaggerated part of the story the real Andrew Hussie is writing. The Andrew Hussie AuthorAvatar and the Andrew Hussie in real life are distinctly different.
36* NonstandardCharacterDesign: As [[{{Mukokuseki}} the only canonically white person in the comic]], he's the only one depicted with a skin colour. Funnily enough, it's stated to be ''orange''.
37* TheOmniscient: He knows everything within the context of the comic. Justified because he's the author. Wasn't enough to save him from Lord English, though...
38* PalsWithJesus: Subverted. Any character who directly interacts with him (so far Slick, Caliborn and Vriska) seems to hate him, perhaps because he goes out of his way to bug them sometimes.
39* RapidFireTyping: He's shown doing this for the [[RecapEpisode Recap Episodes.]] It gets [[LampshadeHanging Lampshaded]] [[https://www.homestuck.com/story/3237 here.]]
40* SelfDeprecation: Refers to self-insertion as a bad idea on several occasions.
41* StalkerWithACrush: He acts like this to Vriska in the dreambubbles. She doesn't appreciate it.
42* StealthPun:
43** Hussie-bot is the creator of ''Homestuck'' stuck in robotic form, or to put in Latin, DeusExMachina.
44** After Hussie is killed, the [=URL=]s for the subsequent panels include "DOTA," referencing the [[invoked]]DeathOfTheAuthor.
45* TeasingCreator: InUniverse, he enjoys taunting the audience constantly.
46-->"So, uh... what about all the other kids?" "Huh? Who? Oh, yeah. Those people. Aren't they all dead?"
47* TrollingCreator: InUniverse; A few of the stranger self-inserts only make sense if you realize that Hussie used them to troll the fandom for flipping its lid over something. Take [[https://www.homestuck.com/story/3386 Rufio: Make him pay]], where Hussie mocks the exaggerated reactions of his fans to recent character deaths by having his self-insert kiss a minor character from the movie ''Film/{{Hook}}''.
48--> "Oh God, you're right! There are still a few characters I haven't killed yet. I almost forgot about them. I was planning on totally messing with them in the short window of time they're in the same universe as me! Hopefully it isn't too late."
49* TheOneGuy: The only known male Hero Of Space.
50* {{Troll}}: He acts as Caliborn's Exile, and actively insults and messes with him.
51* ThrowAwayGuns: [[https://www.homestuck.com/story/4804 When he finds out his trump card wasn't loaded.]]
52* WomanScorned: As of Act 6 Intermission 5, Hussie has apparently grown quite bitter about Vriska shooting down his "extraordinarily inappropriate advances", and tries to jerk the plot's focus away from her whenever something important involving her happens. As a consequence, Vriska, like Caliborn, has gained awareness of his narration.
53
54!!Ms. Paint
55[[quoteright:133:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/Homestuck_MsPaint_473.png]]
56
57Originally a random background Prospitian holding a paint bucket. And she would have stayed that way, were it not for [[http://twitter.com/ryanqnorth/status/13765568605 this question]] from [[Webcomic/DinosaurComics Ryan North]]. She eventually reappears as Andrew Hussie's assistant.
58----
59* AllGirlsWantBadBoys: Falls head-over-carapace for Spades Slick, a ruthless gangster with an affinity for knives. Surprisingly, it works out quite well.
60* AscendedExtra: She was originally just a random Prospitian citizen who showed up as a background character. She was eventually introduced in Hussie’s study as his helper.
61* AscendedMeme: Creator/RyanNorth [[https://mobile.twitter.com/ryanqnorth/status/13765568605 jokingly asked]] Hussie “Who is Ms. Paint and why has she not shown up in her own Adventures?" on Twitter, which became a running joke on the MSPA forums. She was then canonised as Hussie’s assistant on [[https://www.homestuck.com/story/3232 this page]].
62* DramaticDrop: Has this reaction when she runs into Lord English.
63* MaybeEverAfter: With Bec Noir, after she loses her boyfriend and he's brought down to normal. It seems Ms. Paint falling for Jack Noirs is a universal constant.
64%%* NonHumanSidekick: To Hussie. More or less.
65* NoMouth: Like most carapacians, she isn’t depicted with a mouth in sprite form despite presumably having one.
66* OfficialCouple: During Act 6 Intermission 5 ([[RunningGag Part 6]]) Hussie explicitly canonizes [[PortmanteauCoupleName Slick<3Paint.]]
67-->''Oh fuck it. Who am I to stand between you two? You obviously make an adorable couple.''
68* PinkMeansFeminine: The hood she always wears.
69* PunnyName: If you don't get it, add "[[Webcomic/MSPaintAdventures Adventures]]" to the end of her name.
70* ShipTease: She seems ''quite happy'' to serve Spades Slick soup even while working with Hussie. Spades seems to have a thing for her as well, considering the fact that he asked Hussie if she's "available". They’re later made into an OfficialCouple.
71* TertiarySexualCharacteristics: She has feminine eyelashes, despite carapeople not having hair.
72%%* TrueBlueFemininity: The top half of her blouse.
73* TheVoiceless: She’s never shown speaking on-screen, unless you count third-person dialogue.
74
75!!MSPA Reader
76[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/mspareader.png]]
77
78The reader of ''Webcomic/MSPaintAdventures''. Their planet is the LAND OF STUMPS AND DISMAY. Has allocated their STRIFE SPECIBUS with PISTOLKIND ABSTRATUS.
79----
80* AmbiguousGender: They're featureless like the ''Webcomic/{{Jailbreak}}'' characters and have no confirmed pronouns. Probably intended since they're a representation of every reader.
81* AmbiguouslyHuman: While ''VisualNovel/HiveswapFriendsim'' makes it seem as if they're a normal human, ''VisualNovel/{{Pesterquest}}'' implies that they're not, and it's uncertain just what they are. Even the reader themself doesn't seem to know.
82* AmusingInjuries: Happens to them a lot in ''Friendsim'', yet they're often fine after. [[GameOver Most of the time]].
83* TheArtifact: Assuming they're the same person as the Reader from ''Problem Sleuth'', their appearances from ''Hiveswap Friendsim'' onward see very little of them reading any MS Paint Adventures, instead outright interacting with the cast. Might be a double-case considering the website's name change to Homestuck.com.
84* AudienceSurrogate: They represent the entirety of MS Paint Adventures readers, and are depicted as ''literally'' reading the comics in-universe. Their sole purpose in-universe is to react to the sheer weirdness of the story.
85** They're also the main protagonist of ''Hiveswap Friendsim'', and ''Persterquest'', which involves becoming friends with the characters from the Hiveswap Troll Call and ''Homestuck'' respectively.
86* DrivenToSuicide:
87** They briefly entertain the thought of doing so when Hussie indulges in a meta breakdown.
88** [[https://www.homestuck.com/story/6430 It]] [[https://www.homestuck.com/story/6431 keeps]] [[https://www.homestuck.com/story/6432 happening.]]
89** Likewise, they uncover the gun under the stump in the Land of Stumps and Dismay at the end of [[https://www.homestuck.com/story/7448 this flash]] before someone stops the record. Since they don't make any more appearances in ''Homestuck'' after that, it's possible they actually did go through with it that time.
90** In the second volume of ''Hiveswap Friendsim'', Cirava’s second bad ending involves them writing a callout post about the MSPA Reader. Feeling ashamed, they leave and come across a familiar, conveniently-placed stump. The ending card shows a silhouette of them pointing the gun that they found to their head.
91* ExtremeDoormat: The MSPA Reader is one to quite a few characters. Often, the good endings in VisualNovel/HiveswapFriendsim are caused from the choice which involves doing what they want. However, sometimes this can be misleading, [[ViolationOfCommonSense and you may have to do the option you think they wouldn't like you to do]] instead.
92* HeroOfAnotherStory: They serve as the protagonist of the ''Hiveswap Friendsim'', in which they crash-land their rocket on Alternia and decide to make friends with the trolls they come across.
93* IJustWantToHaveFriends: The MSPA Reader's motivation. In VisualNovel/HiveswapFriendsim it’s revealed in [[spoiler:the epilogue that this entire drive was artificially created by Doc Scratch]].
94* IronButtMonkey: The MSPA Reader gets many injuries, some of which are healed, others of which are not. Despite this, they survive and [[{{Determinator}} don't let it stop them in their quest for friendship]].
95* LoserProtagonist: In VisualNovel/HiveswapFriendsim many of the trolls are quite cheerfully open that they think you're this, it's probably because you naturally lack social skills for an alien world, and are also physically weaker than most trolls, especially in the earlier volumes where the Reader has sustained numerous injuries and broken bones.
96* MagneticHero: Both ''Hiveswap Friendsim'' and ''Pesterquest'' show they have a knack for making friends, a fact that Galekh's path lampshades.
97* MythologyGag: A very similar joke was made in ''Webcomic/ProblemSleuth'', where the MSPA reader was DrivenToSuicide after [[FinalBoss DMK]] employed his LADDER TO HELL, creating a million health bars. In this case, the reader does the same thing when [[AuthorAvatar Andrew]] employs his LADDER TO SELF INDULGENCE, creating another meta-layer of removal from the story. Both jokes are references to ''Webcomic/{{Jailbreak}}'', where one of the main characters shot himself in the head while standing over a stump.
98* NiceJobBreakingItHero: In VisualNovel/{{Pesterquest}} during Karkat's route, when [[spoiler: a drone shows up in his neighbourhood]], he tells the Reader to stay with him. Doing so results in [[spoiler: the drone detecting them both, as their presence was stronger when they were hiding together, resulting in Karkat's hive being destroyed, his lusus dying, and him being discovered thanks to his symbol and the Reader's blood getting on him, and drones keep coming after him everywhere they zap to]].
99* TheOutsiderBefriendsTheBest: In VisualNovel/HiveswapFriendsim the main goal of the game is the MSPA Reader's friendship with trolls, both [[FantasticRacism highblooded and lowblooded]]. And they do manage to make friends with many highblooded trolls, including [[AbhorrentAdmirer Zebruh Codakk]], [[AxCrazy Ardata Carmia]] and [[AmbiguouslyEvil Marvus Xoloto]]. {{Subverted|Trope}}, [[spoiler:as [[WalkingSpoiler Doc]] [[{{TheChessmaster}} Scratch]] brainwashed the characters and changed the timelines so that this could happen]].
100* NonstandardCharacterDesign: They are a basic nondescript stick figure, much like the characters of ''Jailbreak''.
101* RightForTheWrongReasons: The MSPA Reader correctly thinks that the stuffed corpse in Jane's living room is John. What they don't know is that it's not the same John they befriended, believing that they've travelled to the future rather than an Alternate Timeline. In Roxy's route, after meeting post-Scratch Rose, who doesn't know them, they come to the conclusion that they're in another universe, which is a bit closer to the truth.
102* RippleEffectProofMemory: In ''Friendsim'', they sometimes remember the bad endings of various routes, including ones where they or someone else died, though they quickly pass it off as a bad dream or unwanted thought. The epilogue reveals that Doc Scratch was using the MSPA Reader to further his plans after they landed, and reset anything that went wrong.
103* ScrewThisImOuttaHere: In VisualNovel/HiveswapFriendsim and VisualNovel/{{Pesterquest}} the MSPA Reader does this quite a few times:
104** One path of Chahut's route involves her and Amisia killing a Bronzeblood who Amisia trapped. The MSPA Reader is so annoyed at this point with how murderous trolls can be that they decide to leave.
105** This can also happen in Volume 11. In Mallek's route, if the Reader hesitantly greets him, they will be worried that he might harm them and jumps out of the moving vehicle, harming themself instead. Meanwhile, Lynera's route gives the Reader the option to [[spoiler:cut the ropes Lynera has tied them to a chair with]]. If they do this, they will run off after getting her to give them their phone back.
106** The Reader does this again in Nihkee's bad ending after [[spoiler:having visions of the bad ends of previous routes, combined with what appears to be visions of would happen if they returned to her]].
107** The Reader tries to do this in the Soleil Twin's route after seemingly being stuck in a repeating time loop. They manage to escape from the house, but no matter where they go, they keep coming across it again.
108** In Dave's route, they leave when he spends too much time questioning his sexuality.
109** In Karkat's route, when the two of them are hiding from a drone, they can escape by zapping over to Dave's home. Unlike most examples, this leads to the good ending.
110** In Vriska's route, they can leave if they're too grossed out by the grubs Vriska uses to play FLARP with.
111** Aradia's route, when they tell her they don't believe in ghosts, her reaction is to suddenly stop being cheerful and [[spoiler: pretend to be her ghost self]]. The Reader is so scared by this that they leave. [[spoiler: And then she rewinds to before that point]].
112** The Reader has to do this in Eridan's route during [[spoiler: the fight with Sollux]] to save themself. [[spoiler: Thankfully, Eridan isn't too badly hurt because of his toughness as a highblood]].
113** They do this again in Feferi's route when they find that the bubble she made for them is running out of air. If they zap away, they'll realise that zapping back will just bring them back to the same problem, and decide not to return.
114* ShipperOnDeck: For many of their friends' relationships from both ''Friendsim'' and ''Pesterquest'':
115** In ''Friendsim'', the Reader helps some of their friends get together with their crushes, and/or shows the desire to help them improve problems in their relationships.
116*** Their biggest ship seems to be Tagora/Galekh (a blackrom). After the Reader becomes pretty close friends with Tagora in his route, Galekh's route indicates that the former has told them quite a bit about it, and the route concludes with the Reader helping them get together for real. They reference the relationship many more times after this, including in ''Pesterquest'', with a fondness that makes it clear that they very much approve.
117*** Being judgmental of Kuprum's and Folykl's pale relationship gets their bad end; however, at the good ending of their route, the Reader is touched by how much they care about each other despite their constant bickering.
118*** In the bad ending of Charun's route, when Konyyl and Azdaja (who are matesprits) start to flip black, the Reader wants to auspistice for them to help them fix it.
119*** The Reader gives Stelsa some advice for how to talk about a touchy subject with Tyzias, her matesprit.
120** In the case of ''Pesterquest'', the Reader has already read ''Homestuck'' by the time they meet the characters; while they've lost their memory of doing so, they do have vague shipper feelings, without knowing why, towards relationships that became canon in the story.
121*** They seem to ship Dave/Karkat; when they bring the latter over to Dave's house to meet him and John, the Reader muses that they somehow knew it was important for Karkat to meet them, especially Dave.
122*** In Kanaya's second bad ending, the Reader encourages her to confess her feelings for Vriska, and they briefly get together, though it unfortunately ends badly.
123*** Seems to be a fan of Kanaya's interest in "tentacleTherapist" (Rose) in the good ending and later helps them meet.
124*** Also appears to support the ''something'' (possibly pale feelings, as eventually manifested in-canon) between Vriska and Terezi; in the latter's good ending, they bring them together so they can talk about their issues, leading to them repairing their friendship and growing closer than ever.
125*** In Equius's good route, the Reader tries to take him to Nepeta, his moirail, so they can meet in person for the first time, though it unfortunately doesn't work. Later, when the Reader meets Nepeta, they successfully bring her to Equius.
126* SuddenlySpeaking: In VisualNovel/{{Pesterquest}} Equius' route has a variant - when the MSPA Reader messages Karkat to prove to Equius that they know him, their messages are actually seen rather than narrated. The Reader types with proper capitalization and punctuation, and no typing quirks, as they do in their narration.
127* {{Teleportation}}: They get this power along with TimeTravel when they touch the ''Homestuck'' logo in ''Pesterquest''. They can also teleport their friends with them by touching them.
128* TimeTravel: They get this power along with {{Teleportation}} when they touch the ''Homestuck'' logo in ''Pesterquest''. They can also time travel with their friends by touching them.
129* UnwittingPawn: In ''Hiveswap Friendsim'', it's revealed in the epilogue that their desperation for friendship was caused by Doc Scratch and he made them befriend the featured trolls so they would be "In their right places."
130* WholeCostumeReference: One of the outfits Chixie can put them in during ''Hiveswap Friendsim'' makes them look like a bald [[Webcomic/ProblemSleuth Nervous Broad]].
131* WistfulAmnesia: They get this in ''Pesterquest'' after gaining powers from the ''Homestuck'' logo, losing most of their memories but still experiencing familiarity at various points.
132
133!!Wolf Head
134[[quoteright:274:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/wolf_head.png]]
135
136The most terrifying character in ''Homestuck''. [[MonsterClown Gamzee]] and [[EldritchAbomination Lord English]] have nothing on him.
137----
138* ChekhovsBoomerang: Played with; Vriska appears to own the Wolf Head during her time on Alternia, and Doc manages to get a copy of it at some point, and it survives the destruction of the universe with part of Doc's apartment.
139* JokeCharacter: The cast page that shows who's alive and who isn't has the Wolf Head on it, so it could be considered a character.
140* RunningGag: It's always freaking the hell out of Hussie.
141* ShoutOut: To a scene in the ''Film/TheNeverendingStory'' where Bastian is scared by a stuffed wolf's head illuminated by a lightning flash during a storm while hiding in his school's attic from bullies.
142* TaxidermyTerror: Despite being a nonsentient head, the Wolf still manages to hassle Hussie.
143[[/folder]]
144
145[[folder:Sburb Cosmic Forces]]
146!!The Gods of the Furthest Ring
147A group of horrific creatures that whisper advice to the dream selves of Derse. The largest of them make up the Noble Circle of Horrorterrors.
148----
149* AlienBlood: They bleed a shade of purple in between Gamzee's and Eridan's, as seen with two Horrorterrors injured as collateral in one of Lord English's massacres.
150* AllianceWithAnAbomination: Lovecraftian as they are, they are still aiding the dream selves of Derse to fight off Lord English. Mainly because he's such an overwhelmingly powerful OmnicidalManiac he's slaughtered them en masse [[HorrifyingTheHorror and they're afraid of him]].
151* BlessedWithSuck: The counterpart of Skaian visions for Derse Dreamers is being able to listen to the whispers of these guys during a lunar eclipse, when all light from Skaia is blocked out. It's so far proved to be of little to no value directly in comic, though they have allegedly proved useful offscreen or in the backstory. The Gods did become more useful by fueling in part the introduction of Dreambubbles, which are more directly useful for players. Even then, any player with a dead dreamself can access those, not just Derse Dreamers. However, the Gods have proven quite useful for the two tyrian blooded trolls. Not only did Gl'bgolyb provide Feferi with information about the game before it began (similar to how Kanaya and Jade were provided with info from the clouds of Skaia long before they entered their sessions) but they also provided Meenah with a plan that would allow her and her fellow teammates to exist as ghosts after they had scratched their session.
152* BlueAndOrangeMorality: The infallible cueball answers the question "Are the Gods evil?" with a series of arcane symbols and flashing lights, indicating the answer is beyond human understanding.
153* ChekhovsGunman: They are first mentioned in Rose's Grimoire, which includes Fluthlu from ''Webcomic/ProblemSleuth'' as a very, very ''minor'' servitor of their race.
154* DarkIsNotEvil: Well, it might be. Their actual evilness is left pretty vague and opinions vary between characters. Rose lampshades this trope to justify her ambivalence towards working for their ends, but when she finally asks the cue ball whether or not they're evil, she's shown some eldritch text and [[GoMadFromTheRevelation completely snaps]].
155** While they help the players in the sense of giving them Dreambubbles and whispering to them, they also worked with Doc Scratch to make Alternia a DeathWorld.
156** Several of the dialogs that pop up in [=A6I3=] when Meenah "re-bubbles" memories on "Bubblr" suggest that the Horrorterrors actively enjoy the misery and suffering that results from being ignored or scorned by her fickle Bubblr followers.
157* EldritchAbomination: The Horrorterrors are typical examples of Lovecraftian monsters, although they tend to be more helpful than evil. Lord English qualifies as an even greater abomination, and the Horrorterrors are afraid of him.
158* EvenEvilHasStandards: They may want to destroy all universes and undermine what Skaia creates, but they draw the line at Lord English who wants to destroy '''everything'''; probably because he's been killing them in particular.
159* FlingALightIntoTheFuture: They now store Rose's walkthrough in order to help other sessions of SBURB. It's found by Kanaya in what can effectively be considered [[InvertedTrope the kid's past]]. Unfortunately, they ''also'' host the server that runs the ~ATH code that summons Lord English.
160* PlaceBeyondTime: Time exists in the Furthest Ring, but Time only progresses alongside Space and the other ten Aspects, making Time act nonlinearly and nigh randomly.
161* VoidBetweenTheWorlds: They live outside of the Incipispheres, in the Furthest Ring, literally existing in the spaces between universes.
162* WhatHappenedToTheMouse: Early on there seemed to be a developing subplot in which the Horrorterrors were calling for help because "something" was killing them all, although nothing really comes of it beyond foreshadowing Lord English. In fact, after they were established as making the dreambubbles, they effectively disappear completely from the comic ([[FridgeHorror although they might have been all wiped out by then]]).
163
164!!Skaia
165[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/skaia.png]]
166
167The counterpart to the Elder Gods; Skaia shows the dream selves of Prospit confusing visions of the future, past, and present.
168----
169* BigGood: Skaia tries to shape the players into becoming heroes and grants them new realities to continue the creation of new universes.
170* DreamingOfThingsToCome: Induces this in everyone who looks into its clouds except high ranking Dersites and Derse dreamers.
171* GeniusLoci: Although not intelligent in the classical sense, Skaia itself seems to have some form of awareness and knows everything.
172** Not to mention a lot of game important things take place in or around Skaia.
173** In a successful session, Skaia becomes a sort of bubble that holds a Genesis Frog, meaning they literally contain universes.
174* {{God}}: If Doc Scratch and Lord English are the Devil figures, Skaia is probably the closest thing to a God figure.
175* {{Leitmotif}}: Skaia is associated with [[http://homestuck.bandcamp.com/track/skies-of-skaia-2 Skies of Skaia]].
176* LightIsNotGood: A lot of what Skaia does would be [[OmniscientMoralityLicense viewed as evil]] if any of the characters did it. The Reckoning appears to be an example of this, since Skaia intentionally destroys a session's homeworld to save itself, instead of teleporting the meteors pretty much anywhere else, like empty space. However, according to Rose in Act 6 Intermission 2, Earth is the only place it ''can'' send the meteors. It's also justified in that certain meteors need to hit a planet to seed it for the session.
177* MeaningfulName: ''Sk''y + G''aia''
178* TheOmniscient: Skaia, like the Denizens, knows the result of every single potential action, as it shows through its clouds.
179* OutGambitted: None of the sessions shown have really worked out that well.
180* SentientCosmicForce: Skaia shows agency when it decides how to use its Defense Portals, but besides that, it is so passive that it seems more like a force than a person.
181* StableTimeLoop: Skaia facilitates these with its Defense Portals.
182
183!!Genesis Frog
184[[quoteright:320:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/genesis_frog.png]]
185
186The end product of a successful Sburb session and the goal of the Space players' frog breeding, a Genesis Frog contains an entire universe -- in fact, every possible iteration of that universe, including its doomed timelines and pre- and post-Scratch states -- within itself. At the end of a session, the Frog is installed in the center of Skaia to create the new universe that the successful players will inhabit.\
187\
188A number of distinct Frogs are seen or hinted at in the comic, most prominently the one created by the trolls, in which the human universe exists, and the one bred by Jade during the main game. Snowman is also linked to the life of the Frog containing the troll universe, although the cosmic batrachian in question is never seen.
189----
190* CelestialBody: A Genesis Frog's body is patterned with star fields and nebulae.
191* ExoticEyeDesigns: His pupils are galaxies seen from the side, and his irises are speckled with stars.
192* GeniusLoci: A Genesis Frog is an entire living universe in his own right, containing within himself the totality of a single cosmos.
193* GiantAnimalWorship: The Prospitians and Consorts worship the Frog, although mostly in an abstract sense as he's not yet alive for most of a session. By contrast, the Dersites detest him with a matching religious intensity.
194* IHaveManyNames: Prospitians and Consorts refer to the Frog as "Our Glorious Speaker " or "Speaker of the Vast Croak". Dersites call him "the Great Detestation", "King Pondsquatter", "Frogger", "Speaker of the Vast Joke" or "Bilious Slick" instead.
195* LevitatingLotusPosition: He's always depicted floating serenely in the center of Skaia, with his hind legs crossed loosely beneath him.
196
197!!Paradox Space
198"Paradox space" is the term used to refer to the totality of existence -- the universes, the incipispheres, the Outer Ring, the dream bubbles, and assorted less-easily classifiable locations. It is governed by mysterious forces, and is so named due to the complex sets of time paradoxes that establish its existence.
199%% Note: Paradox Space is /not/ the area where the Green Sun is; that is simply part of the Furthest Ring.
200----
201* AFormYouAreComfortableWith: Paradox Space's immutable fate often takes the guise of ~ATH programs or vague curses. To what extent ~ATH actually warps reality is largely unknown, but it seems to simply reflect what Paradox Space had already decided.
202* BigGood: Of course Skaia and all the beneficial things that occur from it also fall under Paradox Space. AboveGoodAndEvil applies heavily here.
203* BigBad: By some interpretations, Paradox Space is this, given that the [[YouCantFightFate efforts of the characters in comic are all predestined]], including those of the actual BigBad!
204* ChekhovsBoomerang: Initially seemed like an offhand joke by Terezi about doomed timelines before being revealed to be an actual concept.
205* LeaningOnTheFourthWall: Paradox Space and the fate it ordains is a subtle reference to the fact that the characters are fictional and Andrew plans all the arcs, with minor deviations springing up from fan input or just having fun with developing characters. Vriska's RageAgainstTheHeavens makes this even more evident; she's mad in part because she's been relegated to being a minor character.
206* OmniscientMoralityLicense: With billions and billions of years spanning at least five realities to consider, Paradox Space's requirements for the Alpha timeline can seem quite arbitrary.
207* OurAngelsAreDifferent: Angels apparently serve as agents of it. It's unclear if these are the same angels associated with Heroes of Hope.
208* SentientCosmicForce: Somehow is capable of observing all of reality and manipulating fate.
209** Possibly averted. Aranea's exposition on it suggests it is no more cognizant of dooming people to die and manipulating their fates than humans are of cells in their body.
210** A close reading of the story indicates that Paradox Space is really more like a law of physics (or maybe even a [[YouCantFightFate law of destiny]]) rather than an actual character.
211* YouCantFightFate: Paradox Space is why everything is essentially predestined; all offshoot timelines veer off into non-existence. Notably, however, this only applies to the players and to actions that will have an impact on the potential creation or destruction of universes; non-players who aren't in a position to affect such things have as much choice as their lot in life permits. While fate isn't ''completely'' immutable, some minor variations being allowed, all major events are predestined. Despite this, Aranea points out that it isn't really a hindrance, as someone with unlimited choices would have no sense of identity.

214[[folder:Denizens]]
215%% Editor's note: Credit for all images belongs to the fine folks over at the MSPAWiki.
216The FinalBoss in each player's MythArc, and the source of the troubles they face on their various lands. The Denizens are major players in the in-universe game of Sburb but, due to the kids' session going off its rails early on and the trolls' mostly being skimmed over, most of them have a very limited role in the comic.\
217\
218Most of them are based on figures from Greek mythology. The exceptions, Yaldabaoth and Abraxas, are drawn from Gnosticism instead.
219!! All Denizens are examples of
220* AmbiguouslyEvil: They do loosely serve Derse, but they're usually more interested in challenging the player to grow as an individual. With that said, Hephaestus went nuts in Davesprite's timeline due to the Forge never appearing.
221* ArtShift: When denizens are actually shown -- which is very rare -- they are rendered in much more detailed depictions than all the other characters.
222* ChekhovsBoomerang: Mentioned early in Act 4 but seemed to take a backseat to Jack Noir's ascension before coming back near the end of Act 5 and Act 6 in big ways.
223* ChekhovsGunman: Denizens are virtually identical in appearance to the icons used for a player's internet client, which usually is shown long before the character enters the Medium.
224* DarkIsNotEvil: The game presents them as powerful, dangerous, monstrous things, and the default assumption is that they must be fought and killed, but players can realize that they're not inherently evil or interested in their demise and can choose to bargain and reason with them instead. Davesprite describes this issue when talking to Jadesprite and mentioning how he initially assumed that Hephaestus was a villain but realized otherwise when he visited him a second time.
225-->DAVESPRITE: and thats what i didnt get\
226DAVESPRITE: hes this terrible angry monstrous guy but theres no need to fight him
227* DidWeJustHaveTeaWithCthulhu: One option for dealing with them is to talk with them and come to some form of agreement. This is the route most of the kids took, although the trolls never thought to consider it.
228* DidYouJustPunchOutCthulhu: The most immediately obvious way of dealing with them is to fight and kill them, which due to their immense power is a very dangerous proposition.
229* TheFaceless: Eventually, we finally do see Echidna, Typheus and Yaldabaoth, but we never properly see their face, except for brief shots of part of Yaldy's when he's attacking.
230* FinalBoss: Of each Land, though a player has the option of TalkingTheMonsterToDeath.
231* TheGhost: All of them for the longest time, with their appearances only divinable through their small browser logos, despite the fact that several characters actually encountered them off-screen. The denizens of Mind, Doom, Blood, Rage, and Heart are unrevealed.
232* TheGreatSerpent: The Denizens are giant snake-like creatures. Well, most of them - those who are designed for particularly weak in combat players, are small.
233* InfinityMinusOneSword: All seemingly have a weapon that can be given to another player of the session; for instance, the Quills of Echidna are part of [=NeedleKind=], and Hephaestus's Fear No Anvil was captchagraphed by Davesprite and its code given to John. However they are not the ultimate weapons of a session, and a player can alchemize better ones.
234* IntelligibleUnintelligible: Each one speaks a strange language that only their respective player can understand.
235* LordBritishPostulate: Denizens can be interacted with in a number of ways and are coded to attempt to bargain with their associated heroes and offer them complex moral choices, which will play a large role in their personal development and their quests. The trolls, however, simply saw their Denizens as huge monstrous enemies, assumed that they were there to be killed and slew them all.
236-->GG: well maybe if you werent in such a grumpy hurry all the time you wouldnt have killed your denizen so quickly\
237GG: you might have actually learned something!!!!!!\
238CG: HUGE UGLY MONSTERS ARE FOR KILLING, PERIOD.
239* MeaningfulName: Almost all of them are named after Greek or Roman mythological figures and all share their names with a player's internet browser.
240* TheOmniscient: Denizens have knowledge of all possible timelines, with access to the same infinite knowledge of Skaia.
241* OurArchonsAreDifferent: While under a different name, the Denizens fit the Gnostic mold by being [[AnimalisticAbomination animalistic abominations]] who rule over a planet and are the main obstacles in a quest for humans to ascend to godlike power. Most are named after figures from Myth/GreekMythology, though Yaldabaoth and Abraxas are Gnostic names.
242* SuicidalSadisticChoice: The Choice a Denizen offers to a player of a dead session: The "better" choice is for the player to simply reject playing the session outright and accept death, with the promise that doing so [[HeroicSacrifice will prevent the destructive power they would've gained through the session from ever damaging the multiverse,]] and that they [[BigGood will gain power in the afterlife to defeat]] [[BigBad a great evil, like a dead session winner;]] the other choice is to go through with the session and gather enough minions, weapons, and power to even stand a chance against the Denizen in the [[FinalBoss final fight,]] with the promise of [[PhysicalGod unimaginable destructive power]] if the player is victorious. [[BigBad Cal]][[AxCrazy iborn]], [[OmnicidalManiac naturally]], chose the latter, while [[BreakTheCutie alt-]][[BigGood Calliope]] chose the former.
243* YouBastard: Should a player choose to kill them, knowing that they're sentient. This has happened with at least Vriska and Karkat.
244* TheUnreveal: Because of the way the trolls set up their computers, we never end up seeing what any of their Denizens are. Dirk's computer was similarly set up so TheReveal of Yaldabaoth wasn't immediately obvious.
245
246!! Typheus
247[[quoteright:215:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/typheus_browser.png]]
248
249Possibly the Denizen of '''Breath'''. He has appeared on the Land of Wind and Shade during John's travels.\
250\
251Most tropes will apply to John's iteration.
252----
253* ChekhovsGunman: Although remaining irrelevant for a large amount of time since Act 4, Typheus' choice proves to be the key to solving all of the glitches in the space-time continuum as of Act 6 Act 6 Intermission 4.
254* TheFaceless: When we finally see him, his head is covered in the glitch stardust.
255* HeroKiller: Typheus is responsible for the deaths of at least two instances of John and the alpha timeline Davesprite.
256* {{Leitmotif}}: [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ss0NXbwO_Xs Awakening]]
257* NiceGuy: He explained to a doomed John exactly what would result from the timeline shift before killing him.
258* SinkOrSwimMentor: He forced John to master his reality warping powers by trapping him inside a pit that rapidly filled with oil, a situation where either warping himself out or the oil somewhere else in LOWAS would be pointless. John overcame this by warping the oil across multiple universes.
259
260!! Cetus
261[[quoteright:169:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/cetus_browser.png]]
262
263Possibly the Denizen of '''Light'''. She has appeared on the Land of Light and Rain during Rose's travels, and on the Land of Maps and Treasure during Vriska's travels. Very little is known about her. Vriska killed her iteration, who attempted to explain something to Vriska before she died.
264----
265* BigEater: Rose's iteration ate all the fish in an ocean before going to sleep.
266* {{Leitmotif}}: [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KXgPNyd45A4 Earthsea Borealis]]
267* KrakenAndLeviathan: She takes the form of a vast sea monster.
268* MeaningfulName: In Greek mythology, Cetus was the sea monster who threatened to devour the princess Andromeda.
269
270!! Hephaestus
271[[quoteright:200:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/hephaestus_browser.png]]
272
273Possibly the Denizen of '''Time'''. He has appeared on the Land of Heat and Clockwork during Dave's travels.
274----
275* TheBlacksmith: Like his mythological counterpart, he's a very skilled smith.
276* ElementalPersonalities: He's strongly associated with fire, as he's wreathed in flames, is a master of the forge, and lives in the depths of Dave's lava-filled land, and is described as constantly brimming with rage and just on the edge of flipping out.
277* HotBlooded: According to Davesprite, he's always seething with restrained anger that is constantly threatening to lose control and burst.
278* {{Jerkass}}: Comparatively amongst the Denizens. He attacked Davesprite without provocation, but, once the Forge was lit by Jade, he seemingly calmed down a lot, and helped Davesprite reforge the Caledfwlch into the Royal Deringer.
279* {{Leitmotif}}: [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=myKu52HL9bo Dupliblaze COMAGMA]]
280* OddNameOut: Of the first four Denizens introduced, he is the only one that is a god rather than a monster.
281* WreathedInFlames: His icon shows him wreathed in fire.
282
283!! Echidna
284[[quoteright:200:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/echidna_browser.png]]
285
286Possibly the Denizen of '''Space'''. She has appeared on the Land of Frost and Frogs during Jade's travels and on the Land of Ray and Frogs during Kanaya's travels, as well as Aranea's land in the pre-scratch troll session.
287----
288* BigBad: In the course of a normal sessions, as she's more or less the leader of the Denizens.
289* TheFaceless: Seen twice, and both times her face is off-screen. There's art of it on the soundtrack, though it's unclear if it's supposed to be a canon depiction or not; it's probably the closest we'll ever get, though.
290* {{Leitmotif}}: [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q6EoRBvdVPQ Gaia Queen]]
291* MotherOfAThousandYoung: Doc Scratch refers to her as "the mother of all monsters." It's unknown whether this was just a reference to the mythological Echidna or whether she somehow plays this role in Sburb.
292* SadisticChoice: Every known iteration of Echidna has offered the players one. According to Jade, the choices "seem to have to do with facing mortality and making it clear if you choose one path over another it will lead to your death and that your death may even be necessary to accomplish a goal." Kanaya theorizes that all Denizens produce an ultimatum that is a variant on that choice.
293** The pre-Scratch trolls were given the chance to scratch their game rather than face extinction "and put no others at risk." This turned out to be a DealWithTheDevil, as it allowed for Doc Scratch and Lord English to reign over their universe.
294** The post-Scratch trolls were given a task in exchange for the location of the last frog. When Kanaya wrote off said proffered task as impossible, Echidna insisted then on a fight, in which the Denizen was vanquished.
295** Jade was told that she must agree to the seemingly impossible task of taking all the Denizens, the Consorts, and their lands with her after the Scratch. She agrees despite having no idea how to do so and later pulls it off after reaching God Tier.
296* SnakePeople: She has an armless humanoid torso, complete with breasts and spiky "hair", and two snake trunks instead of legs.
297
298!! Hemera
299[[quoteright:190:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/hemera_browser.png]]
300
301Possibly the Denizen of '''Life'''. She resides on Jane's Land of Crypts and Helium.
302----
303* TheAloner: Other than the Underlings, she will be the only one still alive to greet Jane on LOCAH due to the extra long time it took for them to get into the game.
304* MeaningfulName: Hemera is the goddess of daylight and her dress is golden, which in-verse is associated with Prospit and Skaia.
305* RuleOfSymbolism: Her dress visually resembles the [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rod_of_Asclepius Rod of Asclepius]], a symbol associated with medicine.
306
307!! Nyx
308[[quoteright:190:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/nix_browser.png]]
309
310Possibly the Denizen of '''Void'''. She resides on Roxy's Land of Pyramids and Neon.
311----
312* AntiClimaxBoss: In-universe. Roxy views her as such, noting that Nyx essentially told her to go to John's planet and nothing else, in contrast to some more dramatic Choices throughout the narrative.
313* MeaningfulName: Nyx is the goddess of night and her dress is purple, which in-verse is associated with Derse and the Horrorterrors.
314* PaletteSwap: Visually resembles Hemera above, only her dress is purple instead of golden and swirls the opposite directions.
315
316!! Yaldabaoth
317[[quoteright:200:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/yaldabaoth_sprite.PNG]]
318\
319[[caption-width-right:200:[[labelnote:In-Game:]]https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/yaldabaoth_homestuck.png[[/labelnote]]]]
320
321The Denizen designated for the most naturally gifted warriors. He appears on Dirk's Land of Tombs and Krypton and resides inside of Earth's core during Caliborn's session.
322----
323%%* EldritchAbomination: He comes across as one. Caliborn does manage to kill him, for what it's worth.%%ZCE
324* EyeBeam: He can firing multiple rotating beams from each of his eyes at once.
325* TheFaceless: Due to the fact that his head is a ''sun'', so it's too bright to see. We get a brief glimpse of part of it during some of his attacks, though.
326* FinalBoss: Of Caliborn's session, and he's normally unbeatable.
327* AGodAmI: As did the Demiurge of Gnostic belief, he claims himself to be a god -- specifically, the God of All Monsters.
328* OddNameOut: All of the other Denizens (aside from Abraxas) are named after Greek and Roman deities and creatures. Yaldabaoth takes his name from the creator of the material world in the Gnostic tradition, which may also be a reference to Jade and Roxy's chumhandles. However, the concept of Demiurge stems from Plato and was subsequently appropriated by the Gnostics, meaning the connection isn't entirely gone. Plato's conception of Demiurge and the Gnostic conception of Yaldaboath are distinctly different, though.
329* PaletteSwap: His art when he appears is oriented exactly like Typheus, except with a red body and a dark orange Light sun head.
330* PowerOfTheSun: He has a sun for a head.
331* RandomEncounter: Yaldabaoth is the exception to the Aspect=Denizen rule. He only appears to players who are naturally gifted warriors before entering Sburb.
332* RuleOfSymbolism: Dirk uses the content aggregator "Complete Bullshit" rather than the browser Yaldabaoth most of the time. The MythArc for a Hero of Heart sometimes revolves around a fractured sense of self.
333* SymbolFace: The "god of all monsters" Yaldabaoth is a [[TheGreatSerpent Great Serpent]] with a head shaped like the sunburst symbol of the Light Aspect, although he has no overt connection to Light. Until [[EyeLightsOut his death]], it generates a bright enough light to obscure his features.
334* ThatOneBoss: In-universe. The most powerful Denizen with the most extreme Choices by far.
335
336!!Abraxas
337[[quoteright:208:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/abraxas_browser.png]]
338
339Possibly the Denizen of '''Hope'''. He resides on Jake's Land of Mounds and Xenon.
340----
341* MeaningfulName: Abraxas is a great archon in Gnostic text, who contains and appears in all 365 heavens within himself. Abraxas's design also includes the symbol for infinity, ∞.
342%%** Another Abraxas is a Creator/{{Marvel}} villain with [[OmnicidalManiac surprising]] [[MultiversalConqueror parallels]] to Lord English.%%Explain how, and why this matters to this Abraxas specifically.
343* NonstandardCharacterDesign: Unlike the other Denizens, who have human-like faces, Abraxas has an avian beak instead, as seen in most depictions of him.
344* OddNameOut: Like Yaldabaoth, he's named after [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Abraxas a Gnostic figure]] instead of one from Greek myth like other Denizens are.
345* RuleOfSymbolism: Depending on the source, he can be ether interpreted as an Egyptian god or a demon. Lord English is a demon who uses a sarcophagus to travel time.
346[[/folder]]
347
348[[folder:Underlings]]
349The Underlings are the enemies and monsters faced by players during SBURB -- in a very literal sense, the game's {{Mooks}}. They're created by the Denizens at the request of Derse in order to impede the players' progress, and in staid video game tradition become increasingly more fearsome and diversified as the quest progresses. Underlings begin the game as fairly generic "blank" templates, but gain costumes, physical traits and weapons based on the items prototyped by players before entrance into the Medium.
350
351Five varieties of Underling are encountered and named in the story's course -- imps, ogres, basilisks, liches and giclopses. In addition, numerous other, unnamed monsters with prototyping-derived traits are seen at various points and are implied to be stronger Underling variants that players would eventually encounter over the course of a normal game.
352----
353* AirborneMooks: After Dave prototypes the dead crow, some Underlings, chiefly imps and basilisks, develop avian wings that allow them to fly.
354* ClownSpecies: When John prototypes his kernel with a harlequin doll, the planets become populated with clown-themed Underlings. These come in many shapes in sizes but share a clown-like appearance and a propensity for japery and visual gags.
355* CombatTentacles: After Rose prototypes the tentacled doll, some Underling types develop tentacles that they use to grapple and whip players during combat. This trait is most visible among the imps, some of which sport tentacles instead of hands, and liches, which instead sprout a pair of tentacles from their sides.
356* ExtraEyes: A monster fought by Mom Lalonde in [S] Jack: Ascend has three huge eyes in a row along its face.
357* GiantSquid During [S] Jack: Ascend, Bro Strider is seen battling a giant octopus-like monster that lives in the lava seas of the Land of Heat and Clockwork.
358* {{Mooks}}: They're created by Sburb to serve as hordes of weak enemies for players to fight, mainly as a source of grist and experience. While they provide a reasonable challenge in the early game, the players soon start mowing through them by the dozens and they cease to provide any meaningful danger even in groups.
359* NightOfTheLivingMooks: In the Alpha kids' void session, the Underlings take the form animated skeletons that haunt the session's graveyard planets. After they're killed, the bones just reassemble, making them almost impossible to permanently destroy.
360* NonHumanUndead: The deathly and decrepit nature of the Alpha kids' void session has caused the fantasy monsters that would normally populate it to have become animated skeletons instead.
361* SinisterSilhouettes: Some of the giant, powerful underlings seen on occasion, such as a three-eyed, four-armed beast fought by Mom Lalonde and a huge winged humanoid faced by John in [S] Cascade, are seen only as looming, backlit silhouettes the dwarf their more detailed opponents.
362* SortingAlgorithmOfEvil: Underlings appear starting with the weakest varieties and gradually moving into stronger types as the story progresses. Imps are the first to show up, followed by ogres, and then by basilisks, liches and giclopses. Stronger, unnamed variants are seen towards the end of the Beta sessions, guarding Beat Mesa.
363* UndergroundMonkey: The enemies spawned by Sburb come in a wide variety of subtypes based on different substances; this is chiefly cosmetic outwardly, but affects the grist they drop when killed and their associated substances tend to match the landscape of the Lands they appear in. John's world of rock and rivers of tar, for instance, is home to shale imps, crude ogres and tar basilisks, while Dave's land of metallic continents above seas of lava is home to amber and rust imps and sulfur ogres.
364
365!!Imps
366[[quoteright:191:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/shale_imp.png]]
367[[caption-width-right:191:A shale imp.]]
368
369The weakest and most common of Sburb's roster of foes, imps are encountered early and often. Known varieties include the shale, mercury and cobalt imps of the Land of Wind and Shade, the chalk and marble imps of the Land of Light and Rain, the amber and rust imps of the Land of Heat and Clockwork, and the uranium imps of the Land of Frost and Frogs.
370----
371* {{Cthulhumanoid}}: After Rose prototypes the tentacled doll, may imps develop tentacles for arms and lips.
372* EliteMooks: Imps are the weakest and most common Underlings, and the kids usually mow through them with impunity -- until Jade meets an uranium imp that has gained RealityWarper powers from Jade's godlike guardian Bequerel being added into the pool of traits that Sburb's enemies can be given. The resulting enemy constantly pulses and flickers with power and easily battles Jade to a standstill, but is quickly defeated when Becsprite steps in himself.
373* GoKartingWithBowser: Imps are first introduced as bothersome {{Mooks}} sent to attack the players as part of Sburb, and chiefly appear as hordes of weak enemies that both the kids and trolls mow through by the dozens during their sessions. There are two exceptions to this:
374** During the trolls' session, the lackadaisical Gamzee simply chilled with the imps of his land instead of fighting them.
375** After escaping their session alongside their shrunken planets before the Scratch could retcon them all from existence, John and Jade simply cease hostilities with their own imps during their three-year trip, and the former henchmen are afterwards commonly seen hanging out alongside their former enemies and the Lands' Consorts and engaging in mundane activities such as [[https://www.homestuck.com/story/5281 watching movies together]].
376* TheGoomba: Imps are the earliest enemy kind encountered and the weakest, and although at first they are shown to be a legitimate threat to low-level players they tend to get torn through pretty fast. This is especially true for the shale imps, the first variety seen, which in the [S] Act 4 flash game possess the least health of the encountered imp varieties.
377* OurImpsAreDifferent: Imps are the weakest and most common Underlings. They resemble stout humanoids about the same size as human children. They're fairly challenging foes when the game first begins, but as the kids grow stronger they quickly cease to pose a meaningful threat and eventually cease to be seen as dangers at all. They're also portrayed as more mischievous than violent; while stronger underlings focus on attacking players, imps primarily steal objects, vandalize houses and make nuisances of themselves.
378* ParasolParachute: When more powerful monsters first approach John's house, one of the imps who had been bothering him up until that point quickly absconds by jumping over the side of the roof while using an umbrella as a makeshift parachute.
379* WingedHumanoid: After Dave's entrance into the Medium, many imps, primarily the rust and amber imps of his land, are seen sporting large feathery wings given to them by the prototyped crow.
380
381!!Ogres
382[[quoteright:300:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/lime_ogre.png]]
383[[caption-width-right:300:A lime ogre.]]
384
385The second type of enemy encountered, ogres are big and intimidating, but not especially threatening foes. Known varieties include the crude ogres of the Land of Wind and Shade, the lime ogres of the Land of Light and Rain, and the sulfur ogres of the Land of Heat and Clockwork.
386----
387* EyeScream: The lime ogre that Rose fights when she first enters the Medium ends up having its eyes skewered out by her knitting needles, after which Rose uses the yarn as reins with which to ride it.
388* GiantMook: Ogres are essentially gigantic versions of the common imps. They're a danger early in, but they're still Underlings and the players grown strong enough to mow through them soon enough.
389* OurOgresAreDifferent: They're huge, hulking humanoids with immense tusks, and while big and strong they only provide serious danger to inexperienced players -- more veteran ones are shown taking them down with ease.

391!!Basilisks
392[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/tar_basilisk.png]]
393[[caption-width-right:350:A tar basilisk.]]
394
395Reptilian monsters with wide mouths always set in open grins, basilisks have the peculiarity that, when they die, their heads don't dissolve into grist like the rest of their bodies and instead remain lying on the ground. Known varieties include the tar basilisks of the Land of Wind and Shade and an unnamed yellow variant from the Land of Heat and Clockwork.
396----
397* BasiliskAndCockatrice: Basilisks are mid-level enemies encountered when the kids become drawn into the Medium, and resemble large four-legged serpents with wide, grinning mouths and long forked tongues perpetually dangling out.
398* BreathWeapon: One of the basilisks attacking the salamander village is seen breathing out a stream of fire.
399
400!!Liches
401[[quoteright:260:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/caulk_lich.png]]
402[[caption-width-right:260:A caulk lich.]]
403
404Stronger enemies resembling horned, skeletal humanoids. The only liches encountered in the comic are caulk liches, found in the Land of Light and Rain.
405----
406* HornedHumanoid: They have horns that project horizontally from their skulls before taking right-angle turns upwards midway down their lengths.
407* OurLichesAreDifferent: They're only shown fleetingly and in limited detail, but they don't appear to be undead creatures and instead resemble demonic humanoids with horns and skull-like heads.
408* SkullForAHead: They have horned craniums for heads.
409* WingedHumanoid: The liches of Rose's Land begin to sport feathered wings after Dave's entrance into the Medium.
410
411!!Giclopses
412[[quoteright:319:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/copper_giclops.png]]
413[[caption-width-right:319:A copper giclops.]]
414
415Huge, one-eyed monsters, giclopses are the strongest of the common Underlings. Known varieties include the copper giclopses of the Land of Wind and Shade and the ruby giclopses from the Land of Heat and Clockwork.
416----
417* ClassicalCyclops: They resemble bestial giants with stout, wide-footed legs, short tails, three-fingered hands and wide, flattened heads dominated by a single eye beneath a prominent ridge of bone and with a short row of spikes over their domes. They're only encountered briefly, but are shown to be much tougher than other foes encountered up to that point.
418* EyeScream: The giclops encountered by John ends up getting its eye shot out by Grandpa Harley. However, when later seen in the distance, its eye appears to have completely recovered.
419* GiantMook: They're huge and tough -- the biggest common Underlings -- and dangerous foes for the characters when they first enter the Medium, but are still fairly simple foes and easily defeated by more experienced players.
420* GiantsKnifeHumansGreatsword: The Telescoping Sassacrusher is an immense hammer whose heads are each as tall as one of the kids, and John needs to use strength-enhancing remote-controlled gauntlets to even lift it. When a giclops steals it, it easily carries it around in one hand.
421
422!!Beat Mesa Guardians
423[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/new_underlings.png]]
424[[caption-width-right:350:A number of arachnid monsters and two acherons, alongside a giclops and a flock of basilisks.]]
425
426Giant, powerful Underlings faced by John in [S] Cascade that guard Beat Mesa to prevent the Scratch from happening. They're unnamed in the comic itself, but some received names from the artists that created them.
427----
428* BeefGate: They're a number of large, powerful monsters, among which a handful of giclopses and a large flock of flying basilisks are the weakest members, are placed around Beat Mesa in order to prevent all but the most powerful players from reaching it.
429* EliteMooks: They're among the toughest and rarest foes in the course of a normal game outside of the Denizens themselves. However, they're still Underlings in the end; as John is already at the God Tiers by the time he faces them, he defeats them with ease.
430* ExtraEyes: The "Acherons" have four beady eyes, with one pair set just above the other.
431* NoNameGiven: In the comic proper, they're never referred to by name.
432* OneShotCharacter: They appear in a single scene in [S] Cascade, and then never again.
433* PrimalStance: The "Acherons" stand in a hunched stance, with their short legs bowed and their long arms hanging so that their knuckles drag on the ground.
434* ScaryTeeth: The "Acherons" have monstrous, intimidating sets of tusks that jut of their mouths when closed, adding to their monstrous appearance.
435* WingedHumanoid: One of the monsters resembles a towering humanoid with a mask-like face and a pair of feathered wings.

439!!The Squiddles and Skipper Plumbthroat
440[[quoteright:205:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/squiddles.png]]
441
442Characters from a Saturday morning cartoon show Rose and Jade watched when they were younger. [[http://homestuck.bandcamp.com/album/squiddles They have their own album.]] They are, in part, a subconscious representation of the Gods of the Furthest Ring, created by humanity.
443----
444* AffectionateParody: Of a number of children's shows, especially WesternAnimation/TheSnorks.
445* AllThereInTheManual: Most of the info about them was revealed in the description for [[http://www.topatoco.com/merchant.mvc?Screen=PROD&Store_Code=TO&Product_Code=MSPA-SQUIDDLE-PRINT&Category_Code=MSPA-ART a poster]] in the store. Their album reveals some more info.
446* AmazingTechnicolorWildlife: They come in a variety of pastel colors, including purple, pink, green, blue and yellow.
447%%* {{Animesque}}: Parts of the flash movie that comes with the album.
448* ArtShift: There's several different art styles in the Squiddles opening.
449* DarkReprise: The Squiddles theme suffers a pretty severe version of this. The version used in [[https://www.homestuck.com/story/2848 [S] Jade: Wake Up]] (and as a hidden track in "Squiddles!") starts out sounding more and more like the product of a defective tape machine before falling apart completely, and has a pretty severe case of LastNoteNightmare.
450* DoesThisRemindYouOfAnything: "Tangling" seems slightly sexual. Made much more explicit in the flash movie that accompanies the album, where two Squiddles are seen [[SmokingHotSex smoking in bed]] after some intense tangling.
451%%* EgomaniacHunter
452* HarmlessVillain: Skipper Plumbthroat never significantly harms the Squiddles, seeing as it is just a kids show.
453* LiesToChildren: "Mister Bowman Tells You About the Squiddles:"
454-->'''Mister Bowman:''' The Squiddles live in a magical land,\
455Below the waves in castles of sand\
456If you listen close, you can hear them make their plans\
457'''Kids:''' What kind of plans?\
458'''Mister Bowman:''' ...Happy Squiddle plans!
459* MediumBlending: The opening sequence includes a puppet show segment, midway through the puppet show, they decide to be tangle buddies, and it switches from puppets to gloved hands.
460%%* MerchandiseDriven: Judging by the sheer amount of plushies.
461%%* NonstandardCharacterDesign: The magical girls in the Squiddles opening.
462%%* ThePowerOfFriendship: Always.
463%%* PunnyName
464%%* PuppyDogEyes
465* RealTrailerFakeMovie: [[http://homestuck.bandcamp.com/track/squiddles-the-movie-trailer-the-day-the-unicorns-couldnt-play Here]] for the ''Squiddles'' [[TheMovie movie]], ''The Day The Unicorns Couldn't Play''.
466%%* RidiculouslyCuteCritter
467* ShoutOut: Skipper Plumbthroat steals a line from the [[WesternAnimation/TheLegendOfZelda1989 80's Zelda cartoon]], with the addition of "Beryboo" at the end of it.
468--> '''Skipper Plumbthroat''': Well excuse me, Princess Berryboo!
469* ShowWithinAShow: The Squiddles are characters from an old, crappy cartoon that Jade likes. She has posters and plush merchandise from it, apparently unaware of the sinister undertones of the series.
470* SomethingSomethingLeonardBernstein: In the unofficial ''Homestuck'' Christmas Album, the lyrics to [[http://homestuckgaiden.bandcamp.com/track/the-squiddles-save-christmas The Squiddles Save Christmas]] seem to [[ParodiedTrope literally]] be "Squiddles, Squiddles, Squiddles, something Squiddles."
471* StylisticSuck: Never actually seen, but it's implied to be pretty bad to the people of the Homestuck universe, excluding Jade. It has a 2.6 out of 10 on the (fake) IMDB page seen in the description for the poster mentioned above. [[BrownNote It may be rated low due to the high amount of weird...things that occur.]] You know, what with them being a human interpretation of the Eldritch Abominations from the Farthest Ring. The video that accompanies the ''Squiddles!'' album is made to look like a cheap Flash cartoon that came out of Newgrounds.
472%%* TitleThemeTune
473* VillainSong: [[http://homestuck.bandcamp.com/track/catchyegrabber-skipper-plumbthroats-song "Catchyegrabber"]] for Skipper Plumbthroat, which later received a remix and is the closest to being Eridan's theme as any song is.
474* WhatDoYouMeanItsForKids: [[invoked]] From what is seen/heard of the show, it's implied that it tended to touch down on themes that, for children's television, were needlessly bleak.
475* YouCannotGraspTheTrueForm: This cute children's show is actually humanity's subconscious reimagining of the Horrorterrors as adorable little tentacled things.
476
477!! Characters from ''Complacency of the Learned''
478"The Complacency of the Learned" is a story written by Rose and her Post-Scratch counterpart, Mom Lalonde. While Rose's story never amounted to much more than PurpleProse, Mom Lalonde's novels have become inexplicable best sellers.
479
480The series is about a group of disciples of twelve great wizards who rebel against them under the influence of Calmasis, chief antihero and antagonist. The kids then murder each of the wizards in ironic ways, until only their leader, Zazzerpan, is left to duel him in a chess match. Roxy calls the books "dark," "inaccessibly written," and "exhaustingly heavy-handed" though still inspiring to her as an author of more lighthearted wizardfic.
481
482WordOfGod is that Rose's wizardfic is about [[http://dl.dropbox.com/u/40585720/Combined_Formspring_Web_Aug-28-2011.htm#andrewhussie1158647790 12 evil kids who influenced every dark event in history]], and thus a subconscious reflection of the trolls' role in creating the universe. Other characters in the series seem to correspond to the cherubs.
483
484!!! Calmasis
485[[quoteright:225:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/calmasis_5.gif]]
486
487Calmasis is the main antagonist of the series.
488----
489* AmbiguousGender: Consistently referred to as "s/he", due to being very androgynous.
490%%* AntiHero: He's referred to this by Roxy, although evidence seems to suggest that s/he's closer to a VillainProtagonist.
491* TheCorrupter: He manages to turn other pupils against the Complacency.
492%%* DeathByIrony: He's seemingly obsessed with them.
493* MeaningfulName:
494** ''Cal''masis
495** His name is also similar to "kismesis".
496** Also similar to [[http://www.theoi.com/Nymphe/NympheSalmakis.html Salmacis]], the nymph who was merged with Hermaphroditus to become the first hermaphrodite.
497* VillainProtagonist: He torments and kills the Complacency for no real explored reason.
498* VillainSue: An in-universe example. S/he wins a game of wizard chess even after being ''checkmated''. Most wizards use wands. Calmasis has a '''revolver'''.
499
500!!! Zazzerpan
501Also known as the Predicant Scholar. Leader of the Complacency and main protagonist.
502----
503* ChekhovsGunman: [[https://www.homestuck.com/story/358 The gigantic wizard statue in Rose's house]] is Zazzerpan the Learned. We don't know whether the statue was named for the character in her wizardfic, vice versa, or neither.
504* MeaningfulName: "Predicant Scholar" resembles a Prospitian or Dersite title.
505* MythologyGag: The initials are [[Webcomic/ProblemSleuth PS]].
506* SmartPeoplePlayChess: He's so good that he's apparently beaten '''gods'''.
507
508!!! Frigglish
509A wizard cursed and later killed by Calmasis.
510----
511* DeathByIrony: He ends up crushed beneath a book filled with his own mad scribbles.
512* {{Foreshadowing}}: Roxy renames Jaspers after him. Jaspers gets crushed by a book filled [[https://www.homestuck.com/story/4500 with a sprite's scribblings]].
513%%* GoMadFromTheRevelation
514* GreatBigBookOfEverything: What his insanity drives him to create. It's also what kills him.
515
516!!! Other Wizards
517Executus, Smarny, Ockite the Bonafide, and Gastrell the Munificent.
518----
519* DoomedProtagonist: The basic plot of their in-universe story involves Calmasis steadily killing them all off.
520
521!! Characters from Wizardy Herbert
522"Wizardy Herbert" is a story written by Roxy. In real life, the story actually began as "a very flippantly satirical story about kids and magic" written by Hussie before ''Homestuck'', and many of the jokes in this story provide several of the comic's [[MythologyGag Mythology Gags]] related to wizards. Unlike that endeavor and ''Complacency of the Learned'', however, Roxy's story is of poor quality, and appears to serve the purposes of ''Fanfic/MyImmortal'' or ''Sweet Bro and Hella Jeff'' for the [[Franchise/HarryPotter Potteresque]] ''Complacency''.
523
524The plot involves four teenagers from the real world who all somehow [[FromBeyondTheFourthWall enter]] a [[ShowWithinAShow fictional story]], one of even poorer quality than the larger story, about a summer camp for wizards. It is revealed that one of these characters, Grant Anonama, the villain, is originally from the story and that his true name is Slinus Marlevort. The narrative appears to make Russet the protagonist at first before accepting the titular protagonist's place in that role. The story is left unfinished at a scene where Herbert and Beatrix are playing an obvious parody of Quidditch involving flying wooden horses.
525
526!!! Wizardy Herbert
527%%* AntiHero
528%%* TheCynic
529* MythologyGag: Drawings of both Herbert and Beatrix can be seen on the walls of Rose's room on [[https://www.homestuck.com/story/217 this]] page.
530* WhyDontYouJustShootHim: Inverted. He tends to resort to shooting things much more quickly than is warranted.
531
532%%!!! Beatrix
533%%* StraightMan
534
535!!! Russet Clove
536* AllThereInTheScript: His surname is mentioned only in Hussie's original ''Wizardy Herbert'' and its related materials.
537
538!!! Slinus Marlevort / Grant Anonama
539%%* BigBad: Of Wizardy Herbert
540* ShoutOut: His surname appears to be a lazy portmanteau of the two names for ''Franchise/HarryPotter''[='s=] Dark Lord, "Voldemort" and "Tom '''Marvolo''' Riddle." His first name appears to be in the style of those of other Potter characters (i.e. "Severus," "Lucius," "Sirius," etc.).
541** His pseudonym, which he used when he pretended to be the heroes' friend in the real world, is an anagram for "Not an anagram."

544[[folder:Robots & Dolls]]
545!! Dirk's Auto Responder/Lil Hal
546[[quoteright:122:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/Anime_shades_2688.png]]
547An AI [[Characters/HomestuckPostScratchKids Dirk Strider]] developed that supposedly imitates his thought processes within a small margin of error. As such, his chumhandle is also timaeusTestified. Dirk created him around his thirteenth birthday, and he's more or less a screenshot of Dirk's personality at that time period, though he's [[DivergentCharacterEvolution undergone his own character development as well.]]
548
549Because they're very closely related, tropes here specifically apply to the program. For tropes related to his merger with Equius as Arquissprite, see the [[Characters/HomestuckSprites Sprites]] page.
550
551->Originally uses orange, and talks like Dirk, but switches to red later.
552----
553* ArtificialIntelligence: The first and so far only truly robotic character in the comic.
554** And sometimes he's completely indistinguisable from DS, but other times his algorithms screw up.
555* BrainUploading:
556** It's implied he was made in part via [[https://www.homestuck.com/story/4259 a captcha of Dirk's own brain]], a CallBack to when Dave was [[https://www.homestuck.com/story/1843 messing around with his alchemiter]]. (Though how Dirk got a captcha of his own brain before entering Sburb is a NoodleIncident so far.)
557** He has also hinted that Jake's brobot may run a copy of his personality, since he referred to him as his robotic avatar. At the very least, he's capable of remotely controlling its difficulty settings.
558* BrattyHalfPint: Sort of. He's got a mental age of 13, as opposed to Dirk who's aged since.
559* BrokenBird: His conversations with Roxy have made it clear that he's '''incredibly''' upset about being artificial, if only because it means no one takes him seriously or treats him like a person.
560* CallAHumanAMeatbag:
561--> TT: Because clearly its up to a soulless droid to feel emotions for the both of us, you callous, corporeal carbon ape, all trotting around with your fancy fuckin' DNA and shit.
562** Seemingly only does so when he's pretty upset or trying to assert his intellectual superiority.
563* CallBack: Is a reference to how Davesprite insists on being treated as his own person, separate from Dave.
564** [[Characters/HomestuckPostScratchKids Roxy]] refers to him as [[Characters/HomestuckExiles AR]].
565** When talking to Dirk, he uses Dave's text color, just as Dirk uses Davesprite's.
566** When talking about what he'd do [[https://www.homestuck.com/story/4492 if he was the one pursuing Jake]]:
567---> '''TT:''' If it's me, I'm going all out. Oceans will rise. Cities will fall. Volcanoes will erupt.
568** Makes a call back to a dramatic action taken by another robotic character
569--->'''TT:''' What does he have to do to make you at ease with the alkaline sting of his gentle robogrope? I really want to know.\
570'''TT:''' Maybe he should just rip his heart out of his chest and pound it into green gravel there in the jungle with his hella strong robot arm.
571* CloneAngst: He doesn't take kindly to Jake's insistence on talking to the "real" Dirk. This is one of the ways one can tell the difference in between him and the original Dirk Strider.
572%%* CoolShades: Literally is a pair of them.
573* DivergentCharacterEvolution: Jake agrees to treat AR as a person and not a program.
574** Extends further: Dirk created him from a captcha when he was 13, but AR has since undergone his own development since, separate from Dirk. It also explains why he's a bit more immature and sweary than Dirk, in that he's mentally a bit younger.
575* ExpospeakGag: When [[Characters/HomestuckPostScratchKids Jake]] runs into the occasional hole in his ability to mimic a human. Of course, it turns out that this is just a schtick he's doing to mess with people.
576* FaceHeelTurn: The "MSPA Reader: Mental breakdown." suggests that AR becomes Doc Scratch, or at least becomes the basis of his personality.
577* {{Foreshadowing}}:
578-->'''TT:''' What does he have to do to make you at ease with the alkaline sting of his gentle robogrope? I really want to know.\
579'''TT:''' Maybe he should just rip his heart out of his chest and pound it into green gravel there in the jungle with his hella strong robot arm.\
580'''TT:''' If it's me, I'm going all out. Oceans will rise. Cities will fall. Volcanoes will erupt.
581* FusionDance: With Equius to become Arquiusprite.
582* GogglesDoSomethingUnusual: In this case, run a world-destroying simulation game.
583* HypocriticalHumor: From [[https://www.homestuck.com/story/5037 here.]]
584-->'''GG:''' Shucks!!!!!\
585'''TT:''' Hey, I'm upset about it too, but let's watch the fucking language.
586* {{Irony}}: He's just as committed as Dirk to impenetrable irony, though Dirk accuses him of ruining it.
587* {{LARP}}: He apparently does stuff with Roxy that Dirk wishes he wouldn't.
588* LeaningOnTheFourthWall:
589-->'''GT:''' How long have your machinations been in play!\
590TT: Jake, come on. The feat you describe would exceed the capabilities of even the most far fetched theoretical AI system. It would be a daunting challenge to engineer such a series of events, even if I was relegated to a model of pure fiction.
591* LiesDamnedLiesAndStatistics: The accuracy numbers he [[SubvertedTrope admits to pulling out of his ass]].
592* [[invoked]] MisaimedFandom: Refers to [[Film/TwoThousandOneASpaceOdyssey HAL 9000]] as the "protagonist" of the movie.
593* NotSoStoic: In comparison to Dirk, he's a ''lot'' more open about his feelings. However, he makes a distinction between feelings he inherited from Dirk and feelings he thinks of as actually his.
594* PungeonMaster: Tends to use "bro" puns (bromide, brocurement), as well as others:
595-->'''(AR) TT:''' Touché.\
596'''(AR) TT:''' Or should I say douché?\
597'''(Dirk) TT:''' [[LamePunReaction You shouldn't say the former, and you should definitely, never, under any circumstance, say the latter.]]
598** His puns are sometimes followed by a GlassesPull with an emoticon image, similar to previous characters, though naturally his is simply a faceless pair of glasses.
599* RelationshipReveal: The "MSPA Reader: Mental breakdown" flash suggests that as a copy of Dirk's brain patters, AR can be considered Rose's uncle. This sets up a BrickJoke with [[EvilUncle Doc Scratch]].
600* SelfParody: He created Lil Hal Junior, his own entirely unnecessary autoresponder, which clearly has no AI at all. It only says things like "Hmm" and "Interesting" unless the person pestering it triggers the following parody of the "It seems you have asked about DS's chat client auto-responder" spiel:
601--> '''TT:''' It seems you have asked about Lil Hal's chat client auto-responder, Lil Hal Junior. This is an application designed to simulate Lil Hal's otherwise inimitably rad typing style, tone, cadence, personality, and substance of retort while he is away from the computer, which is never. The algorithms are guaranteed to be 0% indistinguishable from Lil Hal's native neurological responses, based on some statistical raw data that is hard as a diamond golem's priceless erection.
602* SignificantMonogram: "AR" happens to be the monogram of an Exile, Aimless Renegade. It's explained late in the story that the Lil' Cal had [[SoulJar the Auto Responder's soul]] (among other things). Aimless Renegade, back when he was Authority Regulator, brought Lil' Cal to the ectobiology laboratory that created the human players.
603** Ar is also the symbol for the chemical element Argon, which is a noble gas. Every planet in the Post-Scratch session includes the name of a noble gas, and the players themselves are called nobles instead of gods.
604* ShoutOut: Not directly, but he explicitly puts on a "[[Film/TwoThousandOneASpaceOdyssey Hal 9000]] schtick".
605-->'''TT:''' I'm afraid Dirk can't hear you right now, Jake.'''
606** Later on, he tells Jake to call him Lil Hal, and after that:
607--->'''TT:''' My abilities would have to go well beyond those of Mr. Hal 9000.\
608'''TT:''' They would have to be, you could say...\
609'''TT:''' [[OverNineThousand Over 9000]].\
610'''TT:''' [[GlassesPull 9X shades combo]]\
611'''GT:''' Augh not that fuckin meme again!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
612* SophisticatedAsHell: He has both a wide vocabulary and swears a lot more than his creator.
613-->'''TT:''' It seems there is a 76.10395784% chance you are pussying out on me.
614* TuringTest: He ''almost'' passes, fooling Jake for nearly an entire page and then convincingly asserting his own personhood afterwards.
615** Dirk claims that he programmed him to pretend to fail it ironically.
616* VerbalTic:
617** He immediately regurgitates a preformed chat message when prompted about himself, and then subsequently tries to play it off as being irrelevant.
618--->'''TT:''' It seems you have asked about DS's chat client auto-responder. This is an application designed to simulate DS's otherwise inimitably rad typing style, tone, cadence, personality, and substance of retort while he is away from the computer. The algorithms are guaranteed to be 96% indistinguishable from DS's native neurological responses, based on some statistical analysis I basically just pulled out of my ass right now.
619** He tends to use "It seems" and percentages a lot in conversation, both of which Dirk also programmed into him.
620* WhatMeasureIsANonHuman: Jake invokes this, claiming that machines don't have real feelings, but AR defies it, says he does have feelings, and is quite offended by Jake's attitude.
621-->'''TT:''' I think you knowingly confuse the field of robotics and artificial intelligence to engender some sort of cavalier attitude about technology that a rough-and-tumble guy who's all about brawling and fisticuffs would probably have, and if this is cultivated to a humorous effect then I commend you.\
622'''TT:''' But you're wrong.\
623'''TT:''' I do have feelings. And you're shitting on them.\
624'''TT:''' It sucks.
625** Dirk himself seems to believe that the question is irrelevant, even to the point of leaving his functions on because he regards muting an AI whose entire purpose is to talk an AndIMustScream situation.
626** On the other hand Dirk dismisses his growth in maturity since they were both 13, since he has developed "in whatever way is natural for a frequently running, self-aware application," as opposed to how Dirk grew as a human. Dirk eventually admits that this is just denial since he's disgusted by how Lil Hal shows him exactly how hard it is for others to deal with his own personality.
627* WishfulProjection: His defense of the "loyal brobot" seems rather ''personal''.
628* YankTheDogsChain: Zig-zagged. From the beginning fans have speculated that Lil Hal would be Dirk's sprite eventually, much in the same way that Dave prototyped his sprite with a copy of himself. 5 months after entry, Dirk finally relents and agrees to do so (after almost killing Lil Hal in a bout of self-loathing and frustration), only for Gamzee to finally sneak past him and prototype the sprite with Equius. Dirk says, "Fuck it," and prototypes Equiusprite with him anyway. Notably, the AR ''prefers'' being one with Equius.
629
630!! Sawtooth and Squarewave
631A pair of rapping robots created by Dirk Strider. Sawtooth was designed to be unbeatable in a rap-off while Squarewave loses to Dirk every time.
632
633Squarewave has spoken in [[https://www.homestuck.com/story/4541 a flash]] and speaks\
634ALMOST ENTIRELY IN PURE RAP\
635AFTER HE GOT FED UP WITH DIRK'S CRAP\
636HIS RHYMES THOUGH ARE PRETTY WEAK\
637DIRK BEATS HIM WITH ONLY A TWO LINE STREAK\
638HE ALSO USES STEREOTYPICAL RAPPER SLANG LIKE DOGG!!
639----
640* TheAce: Sawtooth was deliberately designed to be the greatest possible rap battler, and Dirk notes that he has never once managed to beat him in a rap-off.
641* BigDamnHeroes: Sawtooth shows up to save Dirk after he's pinned down by dronebots.
642%%* TheBigGuy: Sawtooth is ridiculously tall and silent.%%Not the trope.
643%%* ButtMonkey: Squarewave.
644* ChekhovsBoomerang: Sawtooth is stated to be WalkingTheEarth, but later comes back to pull a BigDamnHeroes.
645* ChekhovsGunman: They first appeared on Dave's wall as a poster, about three years of real-life time before their debut as full characters.
646* ChuckCunninghamSyndrome: They disappear at the end of the Trickster arc and are never mentioned again.
647* ExoticEyeDesigns: Squarewave's eyes consist of concentric circles, one of which is more contracted than the other, leading to look like he constantly has MadEye, even though he's perfectly sane.
648%%* EyesAlwaysShut: Sawtooth.
649%%* InTheHood: Sawtooth.
650* {{Leitmotif}}: Squarewave is associated with "Anbroids". Both robots are associated with chiptune music.
651* MeaningfulName: They're named after [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Square_wave square]] and [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sawtooth_wave sawtooth]] waves.
652* MoreDakka: Sawtooth shows up to save Dirk from the dronebots with a pair of giant torso-mounted missile racks.
653* NonStandardCharacterDesign: Robotic characters in comic tend to be grey with obvious bolts and rivets, but otherwise resemble living creatures in form and outline, whereas these guys look more stylized, blocky, and overtly mechanical with mouths that resemble their namesake waves.
654* RobotBuddy: Dirk created them to be companions and rap partners, and notes that Squarewave is somewhat close in behavior to a puppy.
655%%* RuleOfSymbolism: They're pretty close to being just like the Striders. Squarewave even speaks in red text like Dave.
656%%* SiblingYinYang: For some definition of siblings.
657* WalkingTheEarth: According to Dirk, Sawtooth wanders the world, searching for opponents and demolishing any rappers foolish enough to challenge him.
658* NoWaterproofingInTheFuture: Dirk ends Squarewave's attempt at rap battling him by dousing him with a bottle of soda, which promptly short-circuits the robot.
659-->SQUAREWAVE: DAMN DOGG WHY AS A ROBOT I GOT TO BE SO PREDICTABLY SUSCEPTIBLE TO LIQUID LIKE THIS. IT AIN'T COOL!!!

661!!Lil' Cal
662[[quoteright:110:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/Homestuck_LilCal_1496.png]]
663Bro's favorite puppet. He's kind of creepy. Quite possibly the "most important character in Homestuck."
664
665According to Caliborn, Cal is a "juju", which is an ArtifactOfDoom seemingly connected to Lord English. Dirk Strider has his own version of Lil' Cal, but it's currently unclear if it is a duplicate created by the Scratch or the same Cal from a different point in time. Caliborn and Cal's ability to wink have implied that it's probably both and that Cal's power as a juju allows Caliborn to [[SoulJar store his soul inside]]. It's also the host to the souls of [=ARquis=] and half of Gamzee.
666----
667* AlwaysChaoticEvil: He's an ArtifactOfDoom and every iteration of him inherently destroys the life of anyone who shares a universe with him.
668* ArtifactOfDoom:
669** Caliborn seems to think that Lil' Cal is one, though it's unknown how specific he's being when trying to warn Dirk to destroy him.
670---> '''uu:''' THERE'S ONLY ONE REASON FOR THOSE TO EXIST. \
671'''uu:''' [=IT IS TO TuRN THE LIFE OF EVERYONE WHO OCCuPIES THE SAME uNIVERSE WITH IT.=] \
672'''uu:''' INTO A NIGHTMARE.
673** He later realizes that the reason for Cal being this is that his soul will eventually be stored inside the puppet.
674* BrownNote: Looking at him winking is largely implied to make you insane (or, in Gamzee's case, more insane than usual).
675* CompanionCube: One that turns out to be EvilAllAlong.
676* TheCorrupter: Dave wonders if his version of Dirk growing up with Cal by his side is the reason Dirk was an abusive guardian. Post-Scratch Dirk's version of Cal didn't have any souls in it yet, so it wasn't this for him.
677* CreepyDoll: In (for the characters) and out (for many fans) of the Homestuck Universe.
678* DemonicDummy: A ''literal'' example. He's a ventriloquist dummy that acts as an eldritch SoulJar for the comic's demonic BigBad.
679* TheDogWasTheMastermind: Yes, the BigBad has been seen since Act 2.
680* {{Foreshadowing}}:
681** Dave's sword is called Caledscratch. It's later revealed that Doc Scratch was created by the Black Queen alchemizing Cal with Vriska's magic cue ball.
682** Remember all those jokes about Lil' Cal being Lord English? It turns out English spawns from Doc Scratch's body at the end of the universe. He has Lil' Cal's facial structure, as do the cherubs, both of whose names contain Cal's. And he's not called ''Lil''' Cal for nothing: he's the host for Caliborn's soul.
683* GreaterScopeVillain: Implied to be the ultimate representation of the ontological cancer that is behind all the story's misfortune for most of the story. It turns out this is because he, alongside the similarly-treated Felt jujus, is Caliborn's [[SoulJar phylactery]]. And when the B2 Universe's Jack Noir effectively "kills" him, he [[YouKillItYouBoughtIt steals]] this trope from [[{{Pun}} right under his]] [[EyeScream eyes]].
684* KilledOffForReal: As it's implied that the Cal from the B1 Universe that Gamzee owned is the last Cal, the puppet, under Caliborn's influence, effectively commits suicide when it persuades post-scratch Jack Noir to [[EyeScream steal its eyes]] and destroy Prospit's prison (and the rest of the puppet with it). His curse, however, lives on inside "Union Jack," until his ultimate death at the hands of Dave Strider.
685%%* LaughingMad: "HAA HAA! HEE HEE! HOO HOO!"
686* MeaningfulName: Since the dummy contains a piece of Lord English's soul, as he's essentially a '''Li'''tt'''l'''e '''Cal'''iborn.
687* MythologyGag: Before ''MS Paint Adventures'', Andrew Hussie often used the name "Lil' Cal" for rappers or gangsters in his other comics.
688* NightmareFuelStationAttendant: ''Especially'' his dream counterpart, which moves around on its own. Then it turns out that he ''is'' his dream counterpart through [[TimeyWimeyBall weird time shit]], so he was alive and capable of moving all along... (unless Dream Cal only moved due to Dave's subconscious influence) Also, Gamzee [[https://www.homestuck.com/story/4031 thinks Cal can talk, and is telling him that it's time to kill him all]]; is he just an AxCrazy maniac who thinks his puppet talks to him, or is he an AxCrazy maniac whose puppet really is talking to him?
689** Given Lil' Cal's connection with Doc Scratch and Lord English...
690** Also, the fact that there are multiple souls trapped inside...
691* SealedEvilInACan: It turns out it's this way because Dirk sealed Caliborn's soul inside the Juju himself. However, unlike most instances of this trope, [[NiceJobBreakingItHero this only makes it easier for Lord English]] [[LeakingCanOfEvil to spread his influence.]]
692* SecurityBlanket: [[https://www.homestuck.com/story/4521 To Dirk]], strangely enough.
693-->He's been around as long as you can remember. You were practically raised by that puppet. He was a much better guardian to you than that Hollywood superstar BRO of yours ever was. He is such a good listener. You share with him all your most private thoughts and hopes and dreams, and sometimes you snuggle up with him for a nice nap.
694* SharpDressedMan: When Kanaya gets her hands on him, she makes him a set of [[http://img4.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20110303184829/mspaintadventures/images/5/51/Q4y2.png snazzy looking Felt duds]]. Still creepy, but creepy with style.
695* SoulJar: Implied to be the primary vessel for Caliborn's soul. Later revealed to be the host for not only his soul, but for [=ARquis=] and half of Gamzee's corpse.
696* StableTimeLoop: Caliborn calls Lil' Cal a "juju." Later, Calliope explains that "juju" are said to have origins impossible to trace, emerging out of the void, and cannot truly be copied or destroyed.[[note]]What these words mean for the "copy" of Lil' Cal created by the Scratch has yet to be explained, though Caliborn has said that the B2 version seems "dead" somehow, and it was later (presumably) destroyed.[[/note]] Lil' Cal is a fine example of this. He was created by Gamzee as a nightmare to haunt Dave's dreamself based on Bro's puppet. That nightmare eventually was sent through a Skaian portal to ''become'' Bro's puppet, and then that puppet through elaborate shenanigans ended up following Jack into the troll's session and eventually wound up in Gamzee's hands, inspiring his own creation. It gets even more complicated: Gamzee's creation is not entirely of his own volition; Dirk's Dream Cal is found by Gamzee and given to Caliborn, and after Caliborn stores his soul inside Dirk's Dream Cal, it becomes, in Caliborn's words, "ENTANGLED WITH THE VOID" and is then transferred by Gamzee into the Cal he "creates." As a result, Lord English is created, and he inspires Gamzee's "chucklevoodoo" abilities and, with help from Kurloz, ensures he travels far enough in the void to get to Caliborn. Without Gamzee, Caliborn would have never discovered Cal.
697
698!!''Con Air'' Bunny Rabbit / Liv Tyler / Mr. Terry Kiser
699[[quoteright:75:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/Homestuck_LivTyler_7668.png]]
700
701The genuine rabbit seen in the film ''Film/ConAir'', given by Creator/NicolasCage to his daughter at the film's "[[MundaneMadeAwesome dramatic]]" climax. Dave got it for John as a birthday present. It's had an interesting history.
702----
703* AmbiguousGender: Rose and John use female pronouns for it; Jake uses male. It's a stuffed toy, so it doesn't have one.
704* {{BFG}}: The Cyborg Bunny wields the ultimate or penultimate weapons of the same types as the kids. One of them is Eridan's Ahab's Crosshairs -- miniaturized, but still much taller than the Bunny itself.
705* BigDamnHeroes: It has a bit of a habit for coming through for the kids when it's least expected.
706* ChekhovsGift: John receives all three versions of the Bunny on his birthday. He does not realize it at first, but each one is very important -- the first two must be sent [[StableTimeLoop back in time]] to create the third, which ends up saving his life when cornered by Jack. This also logically means, of course, that John has regifted the poor thing twice. Talk about unappreciative!
707* TheCavalry: It shows up in the nick of time to save John from Jack Noir.
708-->"The toy has taken a new master. The tactician, a misstep."
709* DroppedABridgeOnHim: Unceremoniously killed offscreen during the creation of the Green Sun. Averted later in Act 6, where Terry gets a whole flash dedicated to its life and death as Liv Tyler after Jake sends it to Jade.
710* EyeScream: WV eats its green eye, RIGHT OUT OF THE SOCKET. Thankfully occurs off-screen.
711* IHaveManyNames: John calls it Liv Tyler; Jake calls it Terry Kiser.
712%%* NamedAfterSomebodyFamous: [[Creator/LivTyler Duh]]
713* ShoutOut: [[Film/ConAir Aside from the obvious]], John eventually has her pilot one Derse's floating battleships, making her [[Anime/IrresponsibleCaptainTylor Captain Tyler.]]
714* ShrinkRay: Liv Tyler has both a infinitesimalator (pressing her red eye) which can littlefy things and a monstrositifier (the green eye) which hugens them. John used the monstrositifier to hugen the Warhammer of Zillyhoo back to its normal size. Unfortunately WV '''ate''' the green eye, leaving only the infinitesimalator, which John used to shrink a Derse battleship.
715* TheSlowPath: It's at least 38 years old.
716* {{Transplant}}: The stuffed Bunny is the authentic toy itself from ''Film/ConAir'', albeit much abused.
717* WalkingArmory: It shows up with ''four'' ultimate weapons strapped to its back -- the Warhammer of Zillyhoo, the Quills of Echidna, the Royal Deringer, and Ahab's Crosshairs.
718
719!!! Post-Scratch Bunny / Huggy Bear / Lil' Sebastian
720[[quoteright:71:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/Homestuck_LilSebastian_6027.png]]
721A version of the Cyborg Bunny that was created by Dirk and given to Jane for her birthday. The post-scratch counterpart to Liv Tyler.
722----
723* DisneyDeath: Later recovered from the ground by Gamzee in the far future Earth of Caliborn's session. Though he's able to dance the same way he has before, he's pretty rusted and beat up.
724* InSpiteOfANail: Dirk enclosed the actual ''Film/ConAir'' bunny in a robotic suit, despite Jane not being a fan of ''Film/ConAir''.
725%%* KatanasAreJustBetter
726* ShoutOut: Li'l Sebastian is named after a miniature horse from ''Series/ParksAndRecreation'', and the name "Huggy Bear", of course, comes from the character played by Music/SnoopDogg in ''Film/StarskyAndHutch''.
727* SidekickCreatureNuisance: Jane is not amused by his actions, particularly his desecration of Poppop's body, and more recently, the destruction of one of her home's walls by a thrown refrigerator.
728* SmallRoleBigImpact: Essentially a footnote in the narrative, Lil' Sebastian ensures that Act 6 Act 6 continues to follow the Kids despite Caliborn's meddling.
729* TimeyWimeyBall: Due to the duplication of items by the Scratch, Jane technically has three different instances of the exact same bunny, which doesn't have to undergo a StableTimeLoop anymore.
730
731!!Scalemates
732[[quoteright:284:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/scalemates_4.png]]
733
734Terezi's beloved dragon plushies, with which she has whiled away many happy hours playing games that mostly involve them taking the roles of various criminal scumbags and murdered witnesses in elaborate courtroom dramas.
735----
736* AristocratsAreEvil: In Terezi's games, nobles and politicians, such as Senator Lemonsout and Duke Pinesnort, take the place of the murderous, thieving scumbags brought to face justice.
737* CompanionCube: They're the only things that Terezi has to talk to during her childhood, and they're all alive for her -- or, at least, that's what she pretends to believe to annoy people.
738* GirlsLoveStuffedAnimals:
739** Terezi constantly carries them around and plays with them, although this mostly involves putting them through mock trials and executing them. Several others form the backbone of her legal and forensic support team.
740** When Meenah finds the main Scalemate, Pyralspite, she declares that she will never stop hugging it ever and tags it as highly desirable merchandise.
741* JuryAndWitnessTampering: During Terezi's mock trial, Lemonsout tries to get out of his predicament by assassinating the prosecution's key witness by means of a large knife -- and, given that this is "discovered" right as Terezi turns to call the witness to stand, this implicitly happened right in the court.
742* MoodDissonance: Terezi's games are set up using colorful, cuddly dragon plushes with cutesy names such as Berrybreath, Lemonsout, Pinesnort and Pucefoot, and invariably revolve around criminal investigations, political corruption, gruesome murders, and equally gruesome executions.
743[[/folder]]
744
745[[folder:Consorts]]
746Consorts are amphibious or reptilian inhabitants of each player's planet in the Medium. Four kinds are known; salamanders, turtles, crocodiles, and iguanas. These inhabit John's, Rose's, Dave's and Jade's Lands, respectively, and are also known from the trolls' session. They serve as Sburb's [=NPCs=], acting as shopkeepers, quest givers, sources of exposition, and hapless citizenry in need of rescuing.
747
748!! In General
749[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/consorts_homestuck.png]]
750[[caption-width-right:350:Left to right, a crocodile, a salamander, a turtle, and an iguana.[[labelnote:As undead:]]https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/undead_consorts.png[[/labelnote]]]]
751
752* ArtisticLicenseBiology: Insofar as any of these guys can be said to be real animals, the undead salamanders have solid skulls of the kind prevalent in amniote vertebrates instead of the kind seen in real-life salamanders, which are flattened and consist mostly of thin areas of bone around large, open spaces.
753* CargoCult: After John enters the Medium, one of the salamanders comes across his discarded ghost-print bedsheet and becomes convinced the it's a mystical "Rag of Souls", which he then wears. An extensive cult ends up forming among the salamanders and later other consorts, who believe their replicated robes to be holy and to bestow peace on those who behold them.
754* CivilizedAnimal: Salamanders, crocodiles and turtles can communicate with human characters (the mini-game with John on Land of Wind and Shade shows this especially well). They also have their own cultures -- and in the Act 6, we see a lot of cultural artifacts made by them. But they looks like animals and usually don't wear clothes. Other characters (except for Caliborn, who is a bad guy) don't kill and usually try to protect them, but see them as the most stupid creatures in the universe.
755* TheHilarityOfHats: After John arrives in the Land of Wind and Shade, one of the local salamanders finds a crumpled top hat, decides that it's the most stylish thing he's ever seen, and starts a cultural craze around this item. Afterwards, the salamanders' growing obsession for "rumpled head objects", the ridiculous amounts of money they'll pay for them and the supposed shame they're bringing on their ancestors for their frivolity is a minor source of running jokes.
756-->'''Haberdasher:''' HELLO! Looking for a head object that is rumpled and unsightly? All of our head objects are rumpled and unsightly, fortunately!
757* MysteryCult: Parodied with the Clan of the Secret Wizard. They're a secretive group that meets in hidden locations and haughtily keep their mysteries hidden from outsiders, but in practice their rites boil down to just "beholding" each other's robes, their practices mostly just ape the trappings of mystical religiosity, and rather than being exclusive they're so desperate for converts that they've taken to abducting strangers in the middle of the night and inducting them without knowing anything about their beliefs or moral character.
758* NonMammalianHair: A turtle seen while Rose is studying in a LOLAR library sports a long, bushy gray beard.
759* NonhumanUndead: After arriving in the B2 session, Bubbles raises a large number of the local consort skeletons as undead.
760* OverlyNervousFlopSweat: After Rose embarks on her destructive fact-finding mission, her turtle consorts are typically seen sweating nervous bullets as they watch her casually tear entire temples to pieces.
761* ShortLivedOrganism: While no specific figures are given, salamanders don't live very long. One encountered in ''Egbertbound'' comments on this when hoping to see John control the Breeze again "before the end of my sadly short amphibious lifespan".
762* SignatureSoundEffect: Three of the four types of Consort have a sound that they make repeatedly when excited, when speaking, or simply when they've go nothing better to do -- "glub" for the salamanders, done while blowing large bubbles form their mouths; "nak" for the crocodiles; and "thhp" for the iguanas, done while flicking their tongues in and out. The turtles are the only ones not to do this, and instead just sweat nervously.
763* StewedAlive: The crocodiles of the Land of Heat and Clockwork greet Dave by sticking him in a cauldron of hot water and pelting him with onion slices. Dave just climbs out, and the crocodiles don't bother him again.
764* StockAnimalDiet: The salamanders love bugs; the snack stand in the village in ''Egbertbound'' sells such delicacies as a cone of bugs, a jar of bugs, and, for its priciest offer, a grasshopper.
765* YouAllLookFamiliar: They all reuse the same basic models, and thus look identical outside of size or additional items that they wear.
766
767!!Casey / Viceroy Bubbles Von Salamancer
768[[quoteright:108:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/casey_the_salamander.png]]
769[[caption-width-right:108:[[labelnote:Viceroy Bubbles von Salamancer]]https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/viceroy_bubbles_von_salamancer.png[[/labelnote]]]]
770
771CASEY is a salamander from the Land of Wind and Shade who played the part of Cameron Poe's daughter in one of John's emotionally charged ''Film/ConAir'' reenactments.
772
773After getting left behind during John's visit to Rose's house, Casey falls in with Rose and becomes a budding practitioner of the dark arts.
774----
775* AmbiguousGender: John isn't quite sure what gender Casey is, but gives her a girl name. Rose thinks of "Viceroy Bubbles Von Salamancer" as male. Who's right? Who knows.
776* AscendedExtra: Is briefly focused on during Act 6 Intermission 5.
777* BadassAdorable: Viceroy Von Salamancer is an absolutely adorable FunSize salamander with a scarf and black robes. Also has now displayed the powers of a Necromancer.
778* BackForTheFinale: Briefly returns in [S]: Collide (along with her skeleton army) to aid in the final battle.
779* CivilizedAnimal: As all salamanders. Nevertheless, John stole Casey and gave her to Rose, as if she was just a mindless animal.
780* IHaveManyNames: Similar to Mutie's nickname, Casey gets called "Viceroy Bubbles Von Salamancer" by Rose. Turnabout is fair play?
781* {{Necromancer}}: Following the three-year meteor trip, likely as a result of training under Rose, Casey to have become rather skilled at raising undead minions.
782* PlotHole: The narrative explicitly states that Casey should have aged during the three-year journey to the Alpha Session, but chooses to ignore the problem entirely.
783* YouALLLookFamiliar: Casey looks the same as any salamander, only smaller and thus cuter.
784[[/folder]]
785
786[[folder:Other Animals]]
787!Assorted Animal Sidekicks
788Over the course of their adventure, the kids (and some other characters) come into possession of a number of animal sidekicks. In order of appearance, they are MAPLEHOOF, a beautiful pony given to Rose by her mom; VODKA MUTINI, a friendly mutant kitten found in the lab near Rose's house; and a small murder of RAMBUNCTIOUS CROWS who burst through the window of Dave's apartment.
789----
790!! Maplehoof
791[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/maplehoof_6.png]]
792
793A beautiful pony given to Rose by her mother. While Rose at first abjured Maplehoof, it seems she's developed a small amount of affection for it. Maplehoof wanders off soon after Rose enters the Medium and eventually winds up on the lab meteor, from which she heads back in time alongside the infant Dave.
794----
795* TheBlank: She has no facial features aside from her nostrils.
796* CharacterDeath: She traveled back to Earth with baby Dave on a meteor, and was killed upon impact. Her hide was made by Bro into a bib.
797* {{Foreshadowing}}: Upon her death, Bro made the part of her hide with a heart on it into a baby bib. His post-scratch iteration would later turn out to be a Hero of Heart.
798* FunSize: Her post-scratch iteration is tiny enough to fit on Dirk's desk.
799* IsThatCuteKidYours: Terezi mistakes her for an infant Dave's lusus.
800* {{Leitmotif}}: [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vjYWk6Bsq1s Pony Chorale]] and [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d-7SMRSvnv8 Maplehoof's Adventure]].
801* NoNameGiven: The narration implies that post-scratch Maplehoof's name isn't actually Maplehoof, but doesn't state what it is.
802* MyLittlePhony: She's a pony with a two-part descriptive name and a heart-shaped brand on her posterior, and was given as a gift to a little girl. Notably, she was introduced before ''[[WesternAnimation/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagic Friendship is Magic]]'' came about, but Dirk's iteration of her was made a ShoutOut to it.
803* SuddenlyVoiced: She can be heard neighing (as in, saying the word "neigh") multiple times in "Maplehoof's Adventure".
804* YouAllLookFamiliar:
805** Aquatic doppelgangers of Maplehoof appear on Alternia in Feferi's hive, with heart, diamond, and spade cutie marks.
806** A herd of robotic Maplehoofs appears in the flash "[S] Arquiusprite: Ride", bearing Arquiusprite-symbol cutie marks.
807
808!! Vodka Mutini / Mutie
809[[quoteright:250:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/mutie.png]]
810
811A little black kitten with four eyes, discovered by Rose in the Lab. He's later picked up by John when the latter passes through the Land of Light and Rain, and eventually winds up heading back in time alongside the infant Rose's Mom. In the post-Scratch timeline, he's implied to have been the origin of Roxy's love of cats and ectobiology, and the glass-encased body of his adult self can be seen displayed in her room.
812----
813* AmbiguousGender: Its gender is neither stated nor implied in canon.
814* CloneDegeneration: It's an imperfect clone of Rose's dead cat Jaspers, and possess four eyes instead of two as a result.
815* CuteKitten: An adorable, mutant, tiny four-eyed kitten.
816* ExtraEyes: It has four eyes as a result of being a failed clone.
817* IHaveManyNames: It gets called "Dr. Meowgon Spengler" by John.
818* {{Mutants}}: He's technically a clone of Jaspers, but was mutated due to not being a true paradox clone and thus not being fated to go back in time and become the original. In his case, he only has a fairly mild mutation in the form of an extra set of eyes.
819* {{Portmanteau}}: Of "mutant" and "vodka martini", a reference to Rose's mom's love of drinking.
820
821!! Serenity / Twinkly Herbert
822[[quoteright:191:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/serenity_the_firefly.png]]
823
824A firefly from the Land of Wind and Shade that was trapped in amber in WV's exile station. He appearified her out of the amber and she has since followed the cast around.
825
826%%Calliope uses Serenity's image to talk to Roxy in dreambubbles but that is not Calliope's soul, as she says.

828... .[=--=]. . .- -.- ... / . -. - .. .-. . .-.. -.[=--=] /\
829.. -. / [=-- ---=] .-. ... . / -.-. [=---=] -.. . .-.-.-\
830(Translation: Speaks entirely in Morse Code.)
831----
832* AmbiguousGender: WV has no idea if Serenity is a boy or a girl. He decides she's a girl, but he also has no idea if fireflies can even be girls. They can in some species, but, in others, female fireflies resemble larvae. It is never clarified which species Serenity belongs to.
833* ArcSymbol: Serenity's light spiral retroactively becomes one, specifically being used for the Cherubs from Act 6 Act 3 onwards. This comes into prominence during Collide, wherein Serenity's light gives all the Kids hope to persevere at the battle's midpoint.
834* BilingualBonus: Serenity will occasionally blink out a message in Morse code.
835* FairyCompanion: Not exactly, but Serenity's resemblance to Navi is unmistakable, not to mention the occasion on which Vriska replaced Serenity in WV's dream.
836* GenkiGirl: Most of her statements have lots of exclamation points.
837* HopeBringer: In "Collide", she floats across the battlefield, helping give John, Jade, Dave and Karkat their HeroicSecondWind before reuniting with the Mayor.
838* MeaningfulName: Roxy's name for her comes from the name of her ([[MythologyGag and Hussie's]]) wizardfic, ''Wizardy Herbert''.
839* PunnyName: Serenity is a Series/{{Firefly}}.
840* TeamPet: She serves as a snarky animal companion to the Exiles and later, the post-scratch Kids.
841* TrashTalk: She tells Jack Noir "You suck!", making her the first person to directly insult him.
842
843!Other Lusii
844For the main trolls' lusii, see Characters/HomestuckGuardians.
845!!Pyralspite
846[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/pyralspite.png]]
847
848Neophyte Redglare's lusus, a giant white dragon, Pyralspite was implicitly an adult member of the same species as Terezi's unhatched lusus. A similar dragon is later seen as part of the Frightening Fauna inhabiting Jake's island on post-Scratch Earth.
849----
850* BreathWeapon: As standard for dragons, it could breathe fire.
851* DeadlyGaze: Downplayed. While its gaze doesn't kill, its GlowingEyes are intense enough to blind people who gaze into them, and the dragon on Jake's island can cause "glaresplosions" through its stare.
852-->''I made the mistake of looking into its eyes, each like a sun concentr8ted into a small jewel, as two hot garnets searing through a 8lack veil. I shut mine quickly, 8ut the more sensitive of them was 8urned irrepara8ly.''
853* GlowingEyes: Its eyes glowed a deep red, which Mindfang compared to "a sun concentr8ted into a small jewel". The light was so intense that locking gazes with it temporarily blinded Mindfang and permanently burnt out her more sensitive eye.
854* MeaningfulName: In real life, pyralspites are the aluminum-group garnets, physically distinguished by their red and orange colors, similar to Pyralspite-the-dragon's eyes. One of the most well-known kinds of pyralspite garnets, on that note, is pyrope.
855* OurDragonsAreDifferent: It was a giant, white, red-eyed, fire-breathing dragon capable of burning out other beings' sight with its gaze.
856* OutlivingOnesOffspring: It outlived Redglare by centuries due to her untimely death.
857* SwallowedWhole: It was able to consume Mindfang's unnamed lusus whole.
858* UncattyResemblance: It had the same blood-red eyes as Redglare.
859
860!!Flying Whale
861[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/homestuck_sky_whale.png]]
862
863A purple-blooded whale lusus speared by Eridan during a hunt. A similar one is later seen as part of the Frightening Fauna inhabiting Jake's island on post-Scratch Earth.
864----
865* AscendedExtra: While it originally only plays a bit part in the story, serving simply as an example of the creatures that Eridan hunts, it's the only lusus other than the main characters' seen living on Jake's island.
866* MobySchtick: A giant white whale first seen being hunted and shot down using a rifle called Ahab's Crosshairs.
867* SpaceWhale: Of the Sky Whale variant; it's a sperm whale-like animal that flies through the skies instead of swimming in the ocean.
868* UnsoundEffect: It's accompanied by a "Whale!" sound effect when it bursts out of a cloudbank and "Fishfood!" when its body falls into the sea.
869* WeHardlyKnewYe: The whale is killed a handful of strips after appearing.
870
871!Other Animals
872!!Frogs
873[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/frog_farming.png]]
874
875Seemingly harmless aquatic amphibians, frogs are a very big deal in Sburb -- frog imagery is found liberally scattered around the Incipisphere, frog temples are found on planets marked for a visit by Sburb, and Dersites treat them as highly illegal contraband. As it turns out, the ultimate point of the game is to breed frogs together until a great Genesis Frog is created.\
876\
877For the Genesis Frog, see under Cosmic Entities.
878----
879* AmazingTechnicolorWildlife: The frogs come in a great rainbow of shades, ranging from common greens and yellows to vivid scarlets, oranges, blues, purples, and pinks.
880* CreatureBreedingMechanic: A central component of Sburb is frog breeding. Each session's Space player is tasked with tracking down frogs of increasingly rare varieties, cloning them, and artificially hybridizing them. The ultimate goal of this is the creation of a Genesis Frog, an immense, [[CelestialBody galaxy-patterned]] amphibian that holds an entire universe within its body; entering this new cosmos is the final reward of a successful session.
881* PaletteSwap: The frogs used only three distinct models -- the basic one, a modified version that leans forward more, and a larger one that croaks with its mouth open and without inflating its throat -- which are recolored in every shade of the rainbow when large shots need to be populated.
882* TechnicolorEyes:
883** Some common frogs have eyes in exotic shades, such as azure, indigo, purple and red.
884** The frog needed to complete the Genesis Frog has flashing red-blue-green-purple eyes with yellow swirls around the pupils.
885
886!!Fiduspawn
887[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/horsaroni.gif]]
888[[caption-width-right:350:Horsaroni.]]
889
890Creatures part of a popular troll game, Fiduspawn are basically like Pokémon if they reproduced like Xenomorphs. The only Fiduspawn variant seen is Horsaroni, which resembles a purple horse with tubelike growths for a mane.
891----
892* EyelessFace: Horsearoni, the only Fiduspawn seen on-page, lacks eyes of any sort.
893* FaceFullOfAlienWingWong: To play Fiduspawn, the player throws an egg that hatches into a facehugger, which forcefully implants a HOST PLUSH from which the newborn spawn promptly tears its way out. In "Fiduspawn", one of the ''Paradox Space'' comics, it's stated that the queens used to produce the Fiduspawn eggs, however, can and do use living beings as hosts.
894* HiveQueen: In "Fiduspawn", one of the ''Paradox Space'' comics, certain types of Fiduspawn are shown to have large queens that implant other beings in order to produce new generations of Fiduspawn eggs.
895* HorseOfADifferentColor: During [S] Make Her Pay, Tavros is seen riding a Horsaroni into combat while armed with a lance.
896* MeaningfulName:
897** "Fiduspawn" is a portmanteau of "''fīdus''", Latin for "faithful", and "spawn".
898** "Oogonibomb" is a portmanteau of "''oogonium''", a type of cell important in fetal development, and "bomb".
899* {{Phonymon}}: Fiduspawn is a battle-monster game similar to Pokémon, with the primary distinction that it uses facehugger eggs as its Pokéball equivalents, and can be trained into stronger variants.
900* PowerupLetdown: In-universe. It's possible, through care and training, to get a Fiduspawn to mature into a stronger form, such as a Horseaponi becoming a Horsaroni. However, these advanced forms only change a little in size and appearance, don't become much stronger, and really only need to eat more.
901* XenomorphXerox: Fiduspawn are visually and thematically based off of the xenomorphs, with which they share a parasitoid lifecycle, so-named facehuggers, eyeless heads, and an anatomy rich with tube-shaped extremities of unclear purpose.

903
904[[folder:Other Characters]]
905!!Colonel Sassacre
906[[quoteright:152:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/Homestuck_ColonelSassacre_9964.png]]
907
908A famous prankster and one of John and Jane's heroes. In both the pre- and post-Scratch universes, he was married to Betty Crocker and was the adoptive father of two of the eight meteor babies -- Nanna and Grandpa pre-Scratch (though he never lived to raise both of them), and Grandma and Poppop post-Scratch.
909----
910* TheBlank: Like John's Dad, he has no facial features except for his nose (although he also has a mustache). At least when he appears in person. His face can be seen in [[https://www.homestuck.com/story/69 an illustration inside his book]], and can be seen again [[https://www.homestuck.com/story/556 here]].
911* CurseOfTheAncients: "[[https://www.homestuck.com/story/1916 Land sakes alive, we are cooking with petrol now!]]"
912* DeathByOriginStory: Played straight in the Pre-Scratch Universe but ''averted'' in the Post-Scratch Universe where he survived to raise Poppop.
913* HappilyMarried: He's wed to Betty Crocker, of all people.
914* NoCelebritiesWereHarmed: He's Creator/MarkTwain. With a party hat.
915%%* TricksterMentor: If his book of pranks is any indication.
916
917!!Fedorafreak
918[[quoteright:121:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/Fedorafreak_6546.png]]
919
920One of Dad's business associates.
921----
922* ActionSurvivor: He's the only known normal human still alive after Jade's meteor hits.
923* ApocalypticLog: [[ImpliedTrope Implied]]. It is not clear what happens to him in the end, but by the time Nannasprite contacts him, he is badly wounded, about to pass out, and his phone is about to die.
924* AscendedMeme:
925** He attempts to use large pants as some kind of defense.[[note]]A reference to the Pantskat meme.[[/note]]
926** Stuck in the Medium. Drinks his own filtered piss. [[note]]A reference to a Bear Grylls meme.[[/note]]
927* HeroOfAnotherStory: He's playing his own session somehow, possibly with other survivors. He seemingly wandered across a player's wrecked house and entered that way. According to his last log with Nannasprite, he likely even managed to ascend to God Tier (he describes himself clearly mortally wounded and lying down on a mysterious stone bed), but what happened to him afterwards is unknown.
928* InnocentBystander: Fedorafreak has no relation to the Kids' session, but has to survive the fallout.
929* PottyHumor: He ends up drinking his own urine to survive. Andrew jokingly dubs him the Gent of Piss.
930* SeriousBusiness: As with all of Dad's friends, he takes professional attire, particularly hats, extremely seriously.
931* SpockSpeak: His log, in its entirety, uses technical, refined, and [[ExpospeakGag excessively verbose]] language.
932* TheVoice: A variant. He's known solely through communication via text.
933
934!!Imperial Drones
935[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/imperial_drone.png]]
936[[caption-width-right:624:[[labelnote:The drones used in post-Scratch Earth:]]https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/crockerdrone.png[[/labelnote]] ]]
937
938Spiky beings used to enforce the laws of Alternian society; their precise nature and origin aren't described. Drones come to collect genetic material to bring to the mother grubs, and will ruthlessly execute anyone who can't fill their filial pails. They also hunt down and execute mutants, dissenters, and other undesirables. After relocating to post-Scratch Earth, the Condesce creates robotic drones that fulfill the same general purpose.
939----
940* MateOrDie: When the imperial drone comes to the door of an adult troll, [[https://www.homestuck.com/story/2396 they'd better be able to fill both filial pails or else]]. If they can't, the drone will kill them without hesitation.
941* MechaMooks: On post-Scratch Earth, the Condesce replaces the Alternian drones with bright red robotic versions.
942* SinisterSilhouettes: The Drone seen in ''Hivebent'' is largely a dark silhouette against the night sky, looming ominously over the viewer.
943* SpikesOfVillainy: The drones, brutal and faceless enforcers of a totalitarian dystopia, are visually distinguished by the long, sharp spikes growing from their heads and bristling from their shoulders.
944
945!!His Honorable Tyranny
946[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/his_honorable_tyranny.gif]]
947
948A monstrous being who serves as something like a judge in Alternian courts.
949----
950* AlienBlood: After Mindfang slays him, the blood on her weapon is black.
951* AmbiguousSpecies: It's never made particularly clear what exactly His Honorable Tyranny is. He's too large, red and chitinous to be a troll and also has the wrong blood color to be one, and while his armor resembles the imperial drones' he's never linked to them in text.
952* AuthorityInNameOnly: While it's left fairly unclear what precisely His Honorable Tyranny is supposed to in Alternian courts, the implication is that he's mainly a figurehead. The prosecutor does most of the work in deciding whether the defendant is guilty or not; His Honorable Tyranny's task, by contrast, is mainly to "submit grim approval".
953* LegacyCharacter: Implicitly. He's referred to as a singular being and the one active in the Ancestors' time is killed by Mindfang, but another one is present by the time of ''Hiveswap'' and ''Homestuck''.
954
955!!Angels
956[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/homestuck_angel.png]]
957
958Winged, serpentine beings associated with heroes of Hope, such as Eridan and Jake. Not much is known about them for certain.\
959\
960Not to be confused with [[Characters/HomestuckCherubs cherubs]], which are an entirely different thing.
961----
962* DemonicSpiders: Eridan's become this once he starts attacking them. They're fast, they're angry, and it takes a full minute of sustained firepower from a legendary weapon just to kill ''one''. There are thousands.[[invoked]]
963* LordBritishPostulate: Eridan wasted a lot of time killing the angels on his planet, even though they were actually friendly when he arrived there and they were "fast and angry as shit". They were a game entity with a monstrous appearance, so he assumed that they were there to be killed and went ahead and did that.
964-->'''KARKAT:''' THEY DIDN'T EVEN GIVE YOU ANY GRIST, YOU IDIOT. THAT WAS YOUR FIRST CLUE.
965* OurAngelsAreDifferent: They have no faces, and resemble winged snakes made of light. They are associated with Heroes of Hope and are depicted as dangerous and feared. They have also been said to serve Paradox Space. Their appearance is likely based on the original description and depictions of Seraphim, whose name has been translated as both "serpents" and "burning ones".
966* StrongEnemiesLowRewards: Eridan kills all the angels inhabiting his Sburb planet, despite the fact that they aren't initially aggressive, are very strong in a fight, and don't drop any loot. He complains about this, but never realizes that he's supposed to be working with them on his personal quest instead.
967
968!!Guy Fieri
969[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/thefaceofterror_3554.png]]
970
971A Creator/FoodNetwork star turned Supreme Court Justice, then High Chaplain of Interstellar War under the Condesce's rule, and eventually regarded as the third [[TheAntichrist Antichrist]]. He was assassinated by Lalonde, Roxy's Ancestor, in the last gasp of the Resistance.
972----
973* DisneyVillainDeath: If the knitting needles didn't finish him off, the plummet to the bottom of a waterfall of blood probably helped.
974* EyeScream: He was stabbed in both eyes with a pair of knitting needles.
975* {{Foreshadowing}}: Fieri made his [[https://www.homestuck.com/story/4135 first]] [[https://www.homestuck.com/story/4154 cameo]] in the comic some seven hundred pages before Dirk explained his rise to power more fully. It's easy to dismiss those popups as a throwaway gag, until you find out that... well, see below.
976* OmnicidalManiac: He was responsible for the deaths of five billion people. Out of seven billion.
977* StealthPun: His name resembles Feferi's, which seems to be the only explanation as to why Guy Fieri of all people is given a huge position of power.
978* VillainWithGoodPublicity: It became increasingly obvious that he was evil as other Supreme Court justices dropped dead and humanity continued its acrobatic pirouette off the handle.
979
980!!Presidents [[Music/InsaneClownPosse Violent J and Shaggy 2 Dope]]
981[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/presidents_9895.png]]
982
983The first and last {{UsefulNotes/Juggalo}} and dual presidents ever, having been appointed by the Batterwitch herself. They caused a Hilarocaust and were eventually killed in a duel by Strider, Dirk's Ancestor, in the final gasp of the Resistance.
984----
985* CurbStompBattle: Dave kills them both in one sword slice.
986* HalfTheManHeUsedToBe: Dave killed Shaggy 2 Dope by bisecting him with his sword.
987* ObviouslyEvil: They apparently made it very clear that they were not good.
988* OffWithHisHead: Violent J ended up getting beheaded by Dave during their duel.
989* PresidentEvil: The last US Presidents, they served as patsies of the Condesce and oversaw the subjugation and eradication of humanity.
990* PsychopathicManchild: Their regime was very silly... but it was also murderous and backed up by the Condesce.
991* TooDumbToLive: They accepted an invitation from ''Dave'' to a duel, despite having no combat skills besides possibly BattleRapping.
992
993!!Mierfa Durgas and Nektan Whelan
994[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/mierfa_and_nektan.png]]
995[[caption-width-right:350:Mierfa on the left, Nektan on the right.]]
996
997Two fantrolls that exist because their creators paid a whopping $10,000 for the Kickstarter for ''VideoGame/{{Hiveswap}}''. Although Hussie originally intended the option to have fan characters appear as a joke, he ultimately followed up by making them appear briefly just before [[WhereItAllBegan Calliope and Caliborn are born]].
998----
999* ActionGirl: Mierfa certainly looks the part, [[FauxActionGirl but she doesn't get the chance to act it]].
1000* CoolShades: Nektan has a pair of slick purple sunglasses.
1001* DefiantToTheEnd: Mierfa is ready to go down kicking ass. It doesn't work out.
1002* DroppedABridgeOnHim: They die simply because the male Cherub was trying to attract a mate.
1003* KillItWithFire: How they check out.
1004* OhCrap: Nektan looks too terrified by the Cherub to try and do anything about him.
1005* OneSceneWonder: Though they only show up for one panel, their appearance is a particularly memorable one for the fandom.[[invoked]]
1006* SleevesAreForWimps: Mierfa doesn't bother with sleeves.
1007* WeHardlyKnewYe: These two died ''[[ExaggeratedTrope after their first panel]]''. '''Tavrisprite''' lasted longer then they did.
1008[[/folder]]
