1''[[http://mspfanventures.com/?s=2922&p=1 Poststuck]]'' is a multimedia webcomic pastiche of the much more popular webcomic ''Webcomic/{{Homestuck}}'', created by Daxion on April 12, 2013. The story follows a group of chosen heroes, descended somewhat indirectly from the 33 main-est characters of Homestuck, as they do fairly meaningless shenanigans while building up to a mysterious "game" known as the New Skaia Adventure. Also there's something about a universal conspiracy, but that's probably not important.

3!! Poststuck contains examples of:
4
5* ActualPacifist: Boreal, as made explicitly clear by his introduction.
6--> What else...oh, you don’t like CONFLICT. You are really a pretty big PACIFIST, you can’t stand when people FIGHT
7* BlindSeer: Amonus hinted at to have BlindfoldedVision, as his faux-introduction includes a scene where he "sees" the [[spoiler:dwindling life of his animal guardian, manifest as a flickering candle.]]
8* BlueCollarWarlock: Possibly everyone, or at least the Descended, as magic - manifesting as "mana" - users seem to be common in their universe.
9* CallToAdventure: The New Skaia Adventure, the apparent future centerpiece of Poststuck's big adventure. Currently, no define details have been revealed, only that Boreal considers the Adventure to be akin to a quest, and that completing "this" one bestows the winners with a greater reward than "usual." Even though the "usual" is apparently a big deal already.
10* CaptiveAudience: Lunia has an out-of-the-blue conversation with [[spoiler:"The Witch"]], who sends her a file called [[spoiler:virus.dno]]. Upon opening it, Lunia is subject to [[spoiler:disturbing imagery cut right from the darkest panels of Homestuck.]]
11* TheChosenOne: More like Chosen Ones, as all 18 Descended are fated to be heroes via their "Destinial Heritage."
12* TheCynic: Yorick and Osiris are both cynics; the former is more of a grump while the latter is just a {{Jerkass}}.
13* DeadpanSnarker: Serius.
14* DeityOfHumanOrigin: The Ascended fulfill this somewhat, may also be a case of de facto AscendToAHigherPlaneOfExistence. Either way, the aforementioned Ascended are 33 Homestuck characters who used their powers to create the universe of Poststuck, and are hailed in that universe as gods.
15* TheEeyore: Rudolph, with his constant sniffling and melancholic attitude. However, there have been a few occasions in which he's turned into a bit of a {{Jerkass}}, or even revealed himself to be a HiddenBadass; specifically TheSoCalledCoward.
16* EnigmaticEmpoweringEntity: The "Mysterious Puppeteer," AZ; [[spoiler:which is later revealed to stand for Hawke Azzaz, a possible-omnipotent "Architect."]] AZ's influence seems to be in a similar vein to Andrew Hussie's self insert within ''Webcomic/{{Homestuck}}'', as a snarky unknown person in charge of running the narrative and generally meddling.
17* HumanoidAliens: Everyone. Everyone is technically aliens. Even the humans are aliens; not just HumanAliens.
18* TheIdealist: Boreal seems to be so, he has a very simple, adorable and innocent world view.
19* TheKlutz: Both Lunia and Mirth occupy this trope, with Lunia being a {{Cloudcuckoolander}} and Mirth being TheDitz.
20* KnightInShiningArmor: Richard seems to want to be one, judging from his chat name being honorableSquire and his symbol being a sword with two crossed shields in front of it, but lack some quality of self esteem or courage. He's also somewhat of a ProfessionalButtkisser[=/=]HypercompetentSidekick to Yorick.
