what is a universal constant ? I mean, what/who is in every session.

DISCLAIMER: this does not include dead sessions such as caliborn’s!

  • time player
  • space player
  • prospit, derse, skaia
  • jack noir
  • denizens
  • breeding the genesis frog
  • scratch construct
  • the forge
  • frog temple
  • black and white royalty
  • player planets (ex. lowas, lolar, etc)
  • quest beds/crypts
  • alchemization equipment
  • other weird equipment from a1/a2
  • grist
In the sessions, it seems that the space player is always assisted by the knight when breeding frogs. But what would happen if there was a knight of space? Would they have to do it all by themselves?

the space player is not necessarily assisted by a knight. this is the pattern so far, but it may be coincidence. we simply don’t know!

Is there an actual definition for what chucklevoodoos are or is it more of a vague concept? I've been looking on the homestuck wiki trying to figure it out and I don't recall it ever being properly explained in the comic.

Hussie also suggests that Purple Blooded trolls are granted psychic powers (the “chucklevoodoos”), which permits them to keep the lower blood colors in check.

— the wiki

other than that, chucklevoodoos are pretty vague! we know that gamzee used them to insert cal in dave’s dreams and kurloz used them to influence/control meulin, but other than that…

i heard somewhere you need to have a space and time player in your session or it wont turn out well. is this true? why do you need them if it is?
Anonymous

it is true. we’ve seen how many doomed timelines there were, a time player is needed so that any mistakes made can be avoided by traveling back. a space player is needed because they are the ones that collect the frogs and create a new universe

besides that, time and space are the very basic components of physical existence

Wait, how does Grimdark get triggered (Rose *and* Eridan went through it) and is dying the only way to snap out of it?
Anonymous

eridan didn’t go through it, eridan’s was just a stylistic choice.

and we still don’t know all the details of grimdark, it’s a speculation about what actually triggered her, and how the horrorterrors gained access to her. rose seems to be triggered by seeing the death of her mother, and then asked the magic cue ball a question–it’s after this that she turns grimdark

as rose is the only person to have gone through grimdark and live, then we only know that death is the way to cure it, seeing as we haven’t been shown anything else

so if troll A is in a black relationship with troll B but troll C starts moving in on troll B with black advances and troll B starts black "flirting" (i guess) with troll C, would it be possible for troll A to be both troll B's kismesis and auspisticisisiidndfiffj between troll B and troll C or would it default to one or the other relationships? if this is complex i can clarify

nope! auspisticizing between two trolls pulls all three out of any quadrants they had previously filled with the other two, as stated by feferi in [s] kanaya: return to the core.

How hard is it to make a fanventure? And what are the basics needed to create one? (More specifically basing a fanventure on an old TV show)

i asked alex to answer this question because he has a lot of experience with fanventures, and he typed out a ton of goodies for you!!

YO YO YO ok I’m going to tell you something

what about tyrian purpleblood? are they female exclusive?
Anonymous

fef’s caste? it’s implied that they are

Heiresses upon reaching maturity were expected to challenge the Condesce for the throne.

Actually, Porrim was frustrated because she was a Jade blood. Part of her whole feminist deal is the fact that Jade bloods are female only.

“Some castes have uneven sex ratios. For example jadebloods are almost entirely female…”

“On Beforus, they were a predominantly female caste…”

The key words being “almost entirely” and “predominantly”, both of which mean that an overwhelming percent are female, but that does not mean that a male jade blood cannot exist

Is it possible to have two players in the same session with the same title? Like two knights out of four players.

it hasn’t happened in canon, but there’s nothing that specifically states you can’t, so feel free to do whatever!
