Homestuck How-Tos: Fantrolls 

one correction with the second topic 1-all yellow blood are born with psychic powers, even the ones that doesn't look like they have, actually have them, is just that their powers are really weak, or they hide them (so they don't become bateries) 2-all the other trolls can have psychic powers, but they are weaker than the ones of a yellowblood, and the cases are extremelly weird, specially if those troll have a higher status in the hemospectrum than yellow bloods, orange blood and rust blood are more commonly born with psychic powers than other non-yellow blood trolls

@GuiltyUntillProvenSober but they were born with one, which still applies

@@alvarox9513 Limebloods might have been more psionically powerful than even mustardbloods, but we'll never know it.

@@alvarox9513 but vriska and aranea had pretty strong mind power. Highbloods with psychic powers are rarer than lowbloods with psychic powers not weaker than they on this instance.

Liam White i think their power was that they could calm down anyone, event the most violent of trolls, so condy killed them off because highbloods are naturally more violent

or use an alchemetical symbol

+Nami Flyon The whole "making them weak" thing is fine to prevent a Sue, but that weakness *must* be exploited in some type of conflict, and cannot be easily overcome. Otherwise they're just an Anti-Sue. By "cannot be easily overcome", I don't mean how much you say they struggle. There needs to be at least a miniarc where this weakness is exploited, and in some circumstances it's best if you *don't* have them overcome it, instead coming to terms with it, like Dave and Bro, which was an arc that spanned 16 entire Acts. Stories go by the rule "Show Don't Tell". We know more a character from what they do than anything the narrator can describe. For instance, Mom Lalonde. We can figure out that Mom was not being passive aggressive because of Roxy's interests. This leads to the conclusion that Mom drinks because she is angry at herself for being unable to show her daughter how much she cares. This shows us two different narrators for Rose's pre-entry events. One unreliable narrator relying on Tell and showing a girl with a deadbeat mother. The other, illustrated with Show,, of a woman desperately trying to show that she cares, but her daughter keeps interpreting every gesture of friendship as a hostile jab. The stress becomes too much, and she is driven to alcoholism. After entering the Medium, she leaves via boat, believing that at least now her daughter won't see her die. Even the dialogue can show instead of tell. Why was that the exact thing they said? For example, Diamonds Droog. His encouragement starts to sound different when you realize his two fetishes: violence, and the color grey. With Aradia, who is grey, committing violent acts, and him guiding her, it becomes clear that he isn't actually guiding anyone. He's playing an adult-rated visual novel, and she's the girl. And of course the Felt. I forget the name, but the one who represented 4 did this. He always spoke in riddles. It turns out riddles is a form of Leprechaun romance. He's not giving advice. He's making sexual advances. You can do this with a lot of things. Ever play Heavy Rain. I won'y spoil how, but they do it with the detective.

Cool :3 my friend's fantroll has almost the same typing quirk, but a little different :3

OBJECTION!!! For the quirk, I suggest you write characters that aren't ALT codes, the trolls wire their quirk like that without ALT codes, the cannon I mean. Also, make sure the quirk fits with their character, or at least an interested or based of their sign. Your troll can't be of the cannon universe though, a mutant blood happens once every who knows how many sweeps or something like that, also, on what their blood color would've been, avoid making mutants if you want them to be part of the actual cannon universe. But yes, as said above, give it a reason for why is she so weak, again, on what their blood color should've been so that you can tell how weak she is easier, because you should know by now that lowbloods are weak, but are psychic, and highbloods are least likely to be psychic, but are stronger and more resistant, yes? Character development is also very important, try to guide yourself a little to make a quirk that makes more sense.

Trust me, I know this and if I could just show you her Character Bio, I think it would give a better projection of her character, I worked hard and quite honestly I am proud and believe she has just the right features to fit in the canon, even if it is just a little.

Yo, I'm not gonna change this opinion, the video was very helpful, and excuse my language, BUT I DON'T REMEMBER WHEN THE *FUCK* I MADE THIS COMMENT, or why I put a kissing emoji. I usually don't use emojis. Weird.

that might be possible in an alternate timeline, but I'm not sure about it if you want to make your fantroll closer to cannon

Like what? I know that he got the psiionics part incorrect, as not all yellow-bloods will have this ability.

+Durarara “Gay Emperor” Fandom Yep. I made 8 of them out of boredom and then I blossomed them foward after a few days

+Durarara “Gay Emperor” Fandom Me and my girlfriend are working on a marysue troll!

nope but now I'm gonna

Durarara Fandom yup

Xcatx Socks love ye

ik this comic was from eight years ago ( vriska would be proud ) but I agree with this headcannon/ theory. I thought of the same thing when Kanaya and Rose were discussing rainbow drinkers, and the topic of a rainbow drinker luminescence and their thirst/ need for blood evolved that way.

*he WaS sUbJJuguLaTEd*

5 years ago

Over fuckinf 5years

5 years omg

nearing 9 years now

If I remember correctly, Kanaya's blood is a very rare type and that is why she was a rainbow drinker and could stand Alternia's sun. So yeah, it's special to her. But it's because she's a jade blood. Not all jade bloods awake as a rainbow drinker like Kanaya did, but all jade bloods have the possibility to be one. I do agree with you on the yellow blood thing, though.

Also, making your own blood color is appreciated, BUT Hussie himself confirmed that troll cannot have Black blood, White blood, Rainbow blood, Transparent blood, Or color changing blood.

Now I could be wrong and it I am, please correct me. But I remember reading somewhere that it is not uncommon for yellow bloods to have psyonics but it isn't unheard of for a yellow blood to not have psyonics.

Sollux's mutation was actually his dual-sight

@@dull_demon4717 i presume his mutation also made his piioniics stronger right?

- Alright, with the new release of character designs for Hiveswap, it is confirmed that not ALL yellowbloods have psiionics, since Bumblebee Girl doesn't. So there's that.

Chatter-Hook I think that it's canon that most lowbloods and ceruleans have some sort psychic powers, but Sollux's are unusually strong. So if your fantroll is a mustard blood I'd suggest giving them psychic abilities but not necessarily have them be a psiioniic

Same with all Jade bloods dont have to be rainbow drinkers

Yo he fuckin ded.

+Oliver Meow SAME I was just listening to my liked playlists and i heard that and i just stopped and had to like pause like YES FOR ONCE I AM INCLUDED

+Snuggle Rex uh okay?? wow no need to scream it like you tumblr people usually do

+.shell they made this comment in January, are you that stupid and stuck up that you need to state that you don't care? lmao

+Winona thank you for saying this

tangerine bee IKR

Your username plus your profile pic equals my life

P.o.p.p.y. I'm poppy O W O

Completely true bro, i was gonna bring it up/still am

I believe being a rainbow drinker is meant to those only of the green castes (Jade), because It apparently helps scare away predators in the breeding caverns, where Jadebloods work. I would consider it exceedingly rare, but exclusive towards jade bloods.

+Bidane Martinez-Huerta this is my troll oc sta.sh/0q2oe438zfh

jane saying "See you in a week! HOO HOO HOO!" in the snapchat upd8s and there having not been one since was a reference to this video

Most of it is actual correct, believe it or not the only thing so far on what I've noticed is the Feuca gender, it never really claimed in the web comic that both had to be female. But Yes there can only be two in existence. If you noticed anything else wron please tell me I would love to talk about it :3

Wrong*

1) Not all Jadebloods are rainbowdrinkers. 3:26 2) Trolls wearing only their blood color unless given permission is fan theory, and not canon. 4:35 3) A complete title is the representation of one's personality, not just the class. The aspect represents a sort of base; an ever-persistent force in a player's life to which they strongly relate. One's class is how they interact with said force. Together they form a personality niche - one of 144, or 168 if you count the Master Classes - into which many different types of individuals may fall, though the commonality will be as was mentioned. 8:34

Oh, I did not really notice much of this except the jade blood thing, thank you for pointing it out. And yes the "you can only wear your blood color" is a fan theory I do think I may true. But this is my opinion. Back to the jadegreen blood in my opinion but it is never mentioned in cannon, that I think all jade green bloods are rainbow drinkers. This can be supported by the fact that jadegreen bloods are extremely rare almost as rare as the Fuca bloods (or Feferi condescension and mennahs blood color) but there are more of them by about I think 10/20 trolls. (Again never mentioned how many jadegreen bloods are left) but it also didn't say in cannon whether the all jade-green bloods were rainbow drinkers or not.

So it could leave a person I assume if they were all rainbow drinkers or not

Since the Captors all use psiionic kind, I don't think you'll need one. But if you have one in mind, knock yourself out! (Not literally, that'd be bad...)

Saizhoe ; not all yellow bloods do, it more likley for low bloods to have powers but not needed

How could you're fan troll be official?

Yoush 03 he means a fantroll he actually considers a finished one that he made

hi, i know that you posted this a year ago but i know a two theories about the red thing that could explain this and kind of go together. the first theory is that there are so little of mutant blooded trolls and they are treated so poorly everyone is allowed to wear it, as encouraged by )(IC because she likes the segregation. the other theory is that when a trolls flesh is immediately wounded it turns the candy red color (which could also explain why karat could get inured during fights with crabbed but nobody gets suspicious), but will sometimes stay like that depending on the degree of injury, like terezi's eyes. because of this, and the fact that it is encouraged to hate mutants, the candy red is kind of the "edgy goth" color of alternia, signaling to peers that you could be a mutant if thats all you wear as well as looking injured to any nearby predators.

Nah not a mutant power cuz remember Aradia had psi too and if you’ve seen any friendsim... well just solluxs was a mutation bc he was insanely powerful but in general yes goldbloods do have psi as do rusties

That would probably work if you made it an alternate timeline or universe.

I like to think shades of blood colors exist, but all within one general caste. Theres also the concept of cuspblooded trolls too

@@coffeetoffee0x019 I second this. It would be strange for there to be strictly mustard yellow, especially since we have 2 shades of green, purple, and three f***ing shades of blue.

Yeah - I’ve always assumed the hemospectrum is a *spectrum* - so just figure out which caste they fit into and make sure to make the blood color about the same brightness as the others we see, and you should be good!

Xcatx Socks love Yeah kinda. Based on canon info, you can only use the classic candy corn pallete. Sorry dude

Yes but (Sollux for example) has powers only do to his what can be considered a "mutation" ( double horns) and the whole make the yellow blood have powers always is sort of not true if another troll had hornsx2 they would gain powers like wise to solluxs.

+Jane Crocker I am not too sure if the double mutation is liked to psionics

Machia Alighi it is I do believe hussie said this, and if sollux didnt have double hirns he would be a normal troll.

Blackblooddragoness Well, it could be. Tavros has mind control over animals, but that mostly has to do with him being a brown blood, which is a sub-caste within orange. I think that mind control could be plausible, just don't go crazy with it.

***** no he had mind powers before the honey the honey just made him highish

Bleeding Rose Im pretty sure it's fine. I just randomly drew something, thought it was cool and used it on my newest troll. She's my favorite so far and I had made all of my others before I even read the comic. My friends just helped me and now that I have, I see that they're all crappy. Everyone that I know that has made a troll doesn't use the zodiac sign thing, they just come up with symbols themselves.

Mily Wolfheart i mean my oc (Bisana Rebeel) sign is thr biohazard symbol

because the hemospectrum is like a caste system and everyone fits into it to determine class, just like how there can be many people in lets say, the upper class (just comparing the two loosely bc there is no actual caste system in america). whereas the astrological sign is a symbol of your family line, like your family tree is different from your neighbor's. this was posted a while ago but i hope it helps!

Hussie himself said that trolls can't have black blood, white blood, rainbow blood, transparent blood, or color changing blood :/

+Inkblot -MLP based on popular opinion.

Did you ever decide? Its been 4 years

Panda Hat Productions Heh, all I really did wrong was make a male fuchsia blood (which I don't count as impossible) but my other fantrolls seem alright. I don't really use them often though.

Panda Hat Productions I know that Hussy stated that you cant have any troll with black blood but Ok get this what about His Honorable Tyranny he has black blood! Its a fact Mindfang stated it in her journal! (plus one of my fantrolls is a black blood too so oops u///u)

Darkfoxdragon101 i don't think you can make a male fuchsia blood, but mainly because i have a headcanon that trolls are raised to be the same gender as their lusus. and i'm pretty sure the only lusus for fuchsia bloods is female. idk i might be wrong

Yeah thats the same kind of headcanon I have XD I made the character when i first got into homestuck so hes a bit shit anyway

Panda Hat Productions I feel you bro. I have a blackblooded fan troll (and that same headcannon :v) he's a douche-a-roonie though.

Canon does not decide if your fantroll should have six letters. ALL trolls , canon or not, have six letter names. Just like it's basically a rule to have humans with four letters. Most people mark off fantrolls as bad ones if they don't follow the name rule as well. That's fine if you make up a trolls symbol, just don't get outta hand. I made up all of mine.

If a troll had golden blood, they would have to be at least a yellowblood or at least a very light shade of yellow that looks gold-ish. Otherwise, if a troll has shining gold blood ( Ex: " The blood of the immortals'" [ which is fine if you don't get the reference, I was just saying so ]) that would mean it is equivalent to black/white/clear/rainbow/neon/dual-colored blood. So it's highly recommended to not make a troll with golden blood, but go ahead and make one if you want. Just trying to share advice.

+Kenny I was thinking of the Triforce from Zelda when I asked that question.

+HABIT brand Typically someone in their quadrents would give them permission to use their blood color, like nepeta and equius are moirals, and gamzee and terezi are kissmessies (at least that is how it seems to work). And the "kind" of weapon thing is like if you fought with a dagger like you said and upgraded it, it would still be the same basic weapon so I don't think you would change it

Sorry if this isn't useful due to how far after your comment it is, but I'll try to help. One, I don't think that the color for clothing rule is real, but if you want to use it, I don't think you'd need the canon characters, as most are dead, or the main characters. And your alchemized daggers would still be daggerkind. The Pogohammer isn't pogohammerkind, objects stay in broad categories.
