if ghost are not visible by other people, then how can the dancestor see each others? and how can alive trolls/human see them?

Anonymous

they’re in the dream bubbles! ghosts in dream bubbles work differently than ghost aradia did, because she was on alternia when she was a ghost

can a troll have share the same ancestor with another troll?

Anonymous

each troll only has one ancestor, and each ancestor has only one descendant, as far as we know

Is it canon that dirk has orange eyes?

yes

do you guys have any info on how to make an alterniabound-styled flash game? any tutorials? i'd really appreciate any help at all, thank you

Anonymous

unfortunately, none of the mods know enough flash to be able to make something like that, much less a tutorial for it :(

given my experience with flash though, something like that takes a lot of programming knowledge and time + dedication, so you might want to start by just learning actionscript and getting to know how everything works better

if there’s already a good tutorial out there or somebody wants to make something for it, please let us know!

So they said that Meenah ran away to the moon when she was alive. Would it be far off to say that she was asleep & it was her dreamself on Derse?

seeing as she was literally on the moon, yeah

The term "wriggler" or "wiggler" is used to describe a child troll, right? One who's already pupated, but is still a child.

nope, wriggler/wiggler refers to grubs! a troll’s wriggling day is the day that they first hatched

Would it be possible for two universes to play Sburb together in the same way that Caliborn and Calliope were able to communicate with the B2 kids?

I’m not sure what you’re asking? if it happened in the comic, than you can probably infer that it’s possible for that thing to happen, yeah

Is it ever specifically stated that the Muse and Lord classes are restricted to a two-player session? (Is it ever even implied?)

felinejaye

it’s never explicitly stated I think, but a lot of people believe there’s a correlation because of the extreme passivity and activity of the two choices that yaldabaoth offers caliborn in his dead session:

ARANEA: His choices are known for their wild extremes.
ARANEA: And to this player, in this session, he offered his most extreme choice of all.
ARANEA: It was the choice 8etween a path of conquest, and a path of sacrifice.
ARANEA: 8ut this is putting it lightly.
ARANEA: In a tongue only his player could understand, he descri8ed what the path of the martyr entailed.
ARANEA: In short, it involved nothing.
ARANEA: The player chooses to walk away from the tempt8tion of power. To surrender all am8ition, and to welcome death.
ARANEA: In exchange for this pledge comes a promise. The player’s sacrifice is assured to 8enefit all who will ever live.
ARANEA: In death, the player would later 8e in the position to help 8ring an end to a force of unfathoma8le evil and destruction.
ARANEA: A force which was unleashed, for instance, 8y someone who once opted for the other choice.

however, caliborn and calliope are the only instances of the master classes that we’ve seen, so the choices yaldabaoth offered may have just had more to do with their specific instance than dead sessions in general

So we know that if all of the sprites aren't prototyped before entering the medium, the session becomes a void session. But what happens if only one or two sprites aren't prototyped prior to entry, and the rest are?

there’s no official term for this besides just plain ol’ “null”, I guess! the session would still be unwinnable, for sure
