HSL: Purplebloods 

I see the archetype of the fool in its two senses: as a humorous prankster who mocks the world showing it's flaws, and a silly, innocent creature whose emotions and thoughts haven't been banned by manners and social standards.

"even the most cruel and vile among the purple bloods" *cuts to Gamzee*

Me, raised in a southern Baptist family: *Sees Chahut* ... *sweats*

Don't forget how Karako reappears in Feferi's chapter of Pesterquest

it's been a good time I haven't seen marvus' sprite and he's uh he is out there huh

There's a detail about the twins that could imply somethings. They mentioned that they were once a singular troll. If that IS true, then their signs combined (The Perilous+ The Cartographer) would make them The Cartographer of Peril, possibly a Light or Rage bound. After all, the reader is robbed of freedom and stuck in a loop until they (inevitably) choose not only the option that sheds Light (knowledge) of the cause of the loop and how to leave(with them) but they also have traps set in place and restrict movement away from them by unexplained/ confusing means all while instilling a sense of dread and danger (Rage), negative emotions, possibly unwittingly. As for the combination's Class? Possibly a Maid but more likely a Rogue as they are willing to reward the player with a show(Rage) and how to get out (Light/ Breath), assuming you took the proper path. So, what do I believe? Combined (assuming it was truth) the resulting troll would be a Rogue of Light. They're skilled at obscuring plenty of things(sounds like Void) which is essentially robbing you of knowledge and maybe even fortune. Then comes the big reveal and you hope Slaanesh him/her/it's self isn't behind door number one with it's spiny Vagi-Dong of Destruction, except instead of Bob Barker it's the Psychic Siamese Twins. They CAN tell you what is behind the door, but I think we know that they won't, because a Rogue can still benefit themselves. Another reason I believe Rogue is the go to is the painting in the hallway. Odd, where have I seen that fucking sign?😁

ITS THE BABIES, THE CLOWN HOTTIES, THE ALL MIGHTY DARK CARNIVAL BABEY LETS GOOOOOOOO

One thing ive realized about rage and purple bloods is how they are intertwined with time. Both sides serve le, although some are more indirect. Dave awakens gamzee as gamzee raises Calliborn

Karako really does fit with the Page of Mind, having in pesterquest seemingly mastered his powers and being able to SERVE others mind (why? I dunno maybe he just likes feferi) by seemingly helping them with obtaining the ultimate self, the ultimate self being in a way mastering mind over all other versions of you

I REALLY need to play these Friendsim episodes.

Baizli and Barzum are the troll version of conjoined twins, seeing as they are telepathically and mentally conjoined, but not physically conjoined.

This thumb nail is very aesthetically pleasing :)

i'm wondering if you'll cover the sea-dweller castes since as far as i'm aware they don't show up in friendsim, i'm especially interested in fuchsia bloods and how they control alternian society.

this video's still in premiere mode so i'm gonna spout my theory before it comes out. they are the caste most connected to LE and they are made specifically to serve him and to bend alternia to his will. their archetypal classes are also both destroyer classes, prince and bard which is very interesting and i think this is also in relation to LE and how he represents destruction, especially for alternia's society. i dunno, i don't actually know that much about friendsim since i haven't gotten to playing it yet so i'm excited to see what you have to say, purple bloods have always seemed like an outlier class and have always interested me.

Your description of Barzum and Basili also describes what happened to Feferi and Nepeta after being prototyped with each other... I think..

Love purple bloods, i cant wait

i've been pronouncing "Chahut" like "Kaw-hOOt", because i assumed her name was based on the word "Cahoot", as in "being in cahoots with someone"??? also i would absolutely destroy anyone for Karako my beloved baby boi~ uwu

it is physically impossible for me to NOT like any purple bloods

I’m very late to this, but I am excited to see what is supposedly my caste. Now when I first read Homestuck, I didn’t like Gamzee in the slightest as I had a feeling of who he was, and can’t stand people like him in my life. My feeling was correct, and it made me kind of sad to see that. The addition of friendsim helped me see how purplebloods, which made me throw out the thoughts of all purplebloods being insane, capricious clowns or so my friends said. Seeing all the purplebloods was really nice, and it gave me some minor insight of how rage can be even when masked by another aspect. I can also understand the idea of pages having that innocence that make people want to help or not feel so angered by the thought initially. However, I will say that the idea of all kids being pages is usually a simple basis. You can have kids who have more distinct and mature personalities just as you can have adults who still reflect some of that childlike innocence and somewhat happy-go-lucky attitude. Now for me, I am a pretty firm believer that parts of someone don’t just die off or disappear, and are only suppressed temporarily or even just left until the moment requires it. Funny enough, there are my desires where I wished I was a knight or a sylph as it sounds more fun than a page does to me usually. The possibility of someone being new to aspects and the world almost as if lacking them isn’t necessarily impossible as it is improbable. Albeit, I will say that being multiple classes is a little harder to accomplish than it is to have multiple aspects. Although the scenario with the twins, I think you made the right call that it is probably best to give them classes that are interchangeable given the behaviors of breath and doom. Giving classpects that are similar in behavior to each other I find a lot easier to do, than say trying to make a knight and mage of the same aspect in one person.

Maybe Marvus with his metatextual knowledge knows of Caliborn and roleplays

Every Troll Blood quiz I take always gives me purple blood so this is interesting

Marvus is the best clown. I'm sorry but there aren't any clowns to best him. Anyways, these hemospectrum videos were fun and brought more *light* on the Hiveswap trolls.

I personally think there's a relatively interesting reason behind the choosing of the twins' aspects, which is, (spoiler alert) the fact that Barzum had to *Let Go* off Baizli when they *Met their Doom* in Act's 2 ending. Idk had been thinking about this for a while now jlkjahjkljkajlklk

I've always kinda hated the purple bloods (that is until chahut and Marvus came along *sweats in bisexual*) That is, until a friend of mine told me that purple bloods were actually victims. Kinda like child soldiers in a war that they have no understanding nor a part of. I didn't really get what she was saying until you explained it. Maybe I don't hate them as much as I thought.

So you're saying that Soleil twins might have co-dependency to the point that they can't figure out if they're the same mind based on their beliefs ok

oh yes

It’s my three lovable purple babies! I love them!

THE HYPE. I'M READY. GIVE ME THE CLOWN KNOWLEDGE OD.

maybe its wack and stupid but i actually embraced the "one troll in 2 bodies" theory fully. the world is made up of 12 aspects and i think every character has some relationship with each of those aspects and maybe its fully possible for the same player to have a different classpect if they got lets say thrown in a different story. so thanks to their physical duality "one troll in 2 bodies" could perform 2 roles in one story that normally they would perform in 2 separate stories.

Man, you got me hooked since the beginning of your videos about sburb. I love this!

...yeah I think the Soleil twins' isolation from each other is gonna be a bit more than "extended"

I always took Marvus as an Heir of Heart. But Time may workbetter symbolically? Heart players tend to split, or rather remain aware of these fragmentations.

To understand the extended zodiac, you must know that ascendant sign equals blood caste, moon sign equals dream moon, and sun sign equals aspect. Classpect seems to be based on what signs the planets have. Knowing oneself is essential in the apocalypse, but do bring God and Jesus with you.

So, I don't know if it's just me or... does Marvus feel like more of a mage than a prince? His knowledge of the timeline, as well as his general intelligence with the matters of the flawed Hemospectrum, would match well with that Classpect. Mages tend to suffer from their knowledge, and his inability to change the timelines definitely makes him suffer from experiencing through being unable to change the main timeline. His musical career doesn't match the prince of time title, either; he isn't actively destroying his musical career, he's actively filling it with knowledge. Just as he is forced to obey the alpha timeline, he is forced to obey the hemospectrum. But because his desire to create change exists throughout all timelines, it is forced to exist in the alpha timeline, and therefore he is able to do what time players do: fuck around with the alpha timeline in a very organized and professional fashion. Also, he's *creating* new doomed timelines rather than destroying them. I would love to hear more about your opinions on the matter so I can get a better scope of your opinions and perspective, as I only vaguely understand your conclusion due to a somewhat short explanation. I greatly enjoy your explanations and in-depth analyses; I usually agree with them, but I always enjoy them.

I have two different purpleblood original characters that I'm currently writing, one from Alternia and one from Universe C. This video ended up helping me with not only them but pretty much all of my other important characters. Also it seems fitting for the true classes of the purplebloods to be harder to define what with all the Rage aspect going around.

OK, I absolutely love the purple bloods just because of that one troll character. And I hope you guys know what I’m talking about.💜

I was waiting for this for so long 😔👌👌 love this video (Also, will always see karako as a lord of mind)

karako is babey and you cant convince me otherwise

Karako is #1 best boi

THIS IS GENUINELY A VERY INSIGHTFUL SPIRITUALLY ENLIGHTENING HOLY SHIT

Oh god. I really need to play hiveswap...

Looking forward to the violet blood and fuchsia blood videos!

Love your videos

Yaaaas my Purple Children

Act 2 Ammiright????

Havent made a violet blood episode yet which is a little weird sense you made one on LIME BLOODS

god i cannot wait for violets

I love them all

chahut and marvus is the peak of my bisexuality

God the Soliels are tricky. Apparently according to MC, they are also opposite genders? Baizli is a girl and Barzum is a boy, well biologically at least. I wonder how they will continue coexisting as they grow. Perhaps they'll end up nonbinary or try to force one another to be the same, restricting each other more and more. They really fascinate me. Wonderful video Taz!!

Anyone else here a fellow Purple Blood? Where are my fellow Clown brothers and sisters at? Let me know what your Signs are, mine's "Caprimino: The Enduring"!

Finally 😌

Baizli definitely did a doom

How would the clowns react to Lord English being a crimson blood?

Now that we have hiveswap act2 are you going to remake the videos?

I just love being a Capricorn sometimes.

Karagot is baby (literally)

YEYO WAS RIGHT DOUBLE ASPECTS

aw shintz i missed it :(

Hi, the quiz I did says I am life aspected but As I'm a capricorn I would also be a purple blood.. Im struggling to think how a life purple blood would work though :? any advice?

what is the opening song remix name?

Why are some purple bloods eyes orange/red and two or one Orange tooth/teeth compared to other trolls and some purple bloods with normal yellow eyes ?

Whats the name of the song in the intro?

Wow. I found three diamonds in the purple feces. Score?

looks like baizli really was doomed

I got here at 699 views which makes me objectively better than the rest of y'all

I was kinda hoping we'd hear a bit more about Kurloz since he's unfortunately my favorite (and also irrelevant because Hussie is a lazy fuckwad that didn't wanna make more characters) but this was great too.

Hey uh OD I haven't checked your Tumblr in a while but I check and there's one post on pest repellent for lawns, am I out of the loop? Are you hacked?

HONK :o)

Hey gamers

Poor clowns

Motherfucking miracles

HELL YEAH my blood caste is coming up >:0)
