artisticDreamweaver's Homestuck blog

Hello and welcome to my blog. Local Rogue of Void here. Asks are always open. I do godtier explaining, and try to get the basics of them down. It has been a long time, but I'm back at it again. Thank you for stopping by~

What are Aspects and Classes?

Hey there everyone! AD here. I know it's been an extremely long time since I've been active in the homestuck community, but I found my old notes and decided to start updating them and posting them here for the masses. I do plan to go throught each classpect individually, so keep an eye out. What better way to refresh then to start with the basics!

There are 12 Aspects, 12 Classes, and 2 Master Classes. Each individual Aspect embodies different parts of the human psyche and nature, while Classes are how one uses or manipulates their Aspect. In doing so, this leads to the possibility of 168 different combinations. When it comes to Classes, there are 2 types that each class can fall under: Active Classes (Witch, Mage, Prince, Thief, Knight, Maid) and Passive Classes (Heir, Seer, Bard, Rogue, Page, Sylph).

Let's take a look at what each Aspect and Class means, shall we?

ASPECTS

•Breath: indifference, freedom, flexibility, detachment, multiple options before you

•Blood: compassion, commitment, connections, responsibility, unification

•Time: endings, idea of destiny, patience, forms of destruction, musically inclined

•Space: beginnings, impatient in nature, sense of complete randomness, artistically inclined

•Light: attention, knowledge, luck, influence, awareness, finding meaning

•Void: hidden from all, nothingness, ignorance, meaningless, obscure

•Life: energy, rule breaker, sacrifice of others over oneself, recklessness, optimistic, power

•Doom: self sacrifice, pessimism, cautious, acceptance, submission

•Hope: unconditional trust and/or love, harmony, naivety, beliefs, believes in one true option

•Rage: unconditional hate and/or fear, defiance, doubt, raw emotion, seeks out multiple options

•Mind: rational, logic, reasons, apathetic, indifference, unbiased, judgement

•Heart: impulse, instinct, emotional, passion, biased, empathy

CLASSES

•Witch: optimistic, enthusiastic, confident, rebels, break the rules of their aspects for their own benefits

•Heir: gravitates to aspect/seeks it out, large amount of strength related to aspect, get stuck on one thing about something

•Mage: experience the good and bad of their aspects, gain a special understanding from said experience, tend to see things in only their own perspective due to experiences

•Seer: have secondhand knowledge of their aspect from other sources, they like to give their opinion on their aspect even if they haven't experienced it

•Prince: ghost their opposite aspect while destroying their own, stubborn and pessimistic, will do anything to reach their goals

•Bard: ghost their opposite aspect while letting their aspect be destroyed, laid back and easy going, tend to avoid things, only go to their aspect if in dire need

•Maid: relies on others for aspect, people's dormats, dismissed easily, tend to be pushed around

•Sylph: happy to give any opinion they have on their aspect, nosey, oblivious at times when they're being a bother

•Thief: mostly have good intentions, sadly egocentric, confidence in aspect, hate being seen as weak

•Rogue: issues coping with aspect, feel like they can't handle it, give it up easily to others

•Knight: feel like they have failed in their aspect, uses their confidence to hide that feeling, a bit obsessive

•Page: start with very very little of their aspect, must become confident in their abilities, overcompensate to large degrees

•Lord: embodies their aspect and controls with or through it, Dm vs Player mentality

•Muse: embodies their aspect and inspires with or through it, Dm cohesive with player mentality

Lords vs Muses

So it's been a long time since I've posted anything about classpecting stuff, so I'm really rusty. For years I've struggled with Master classes because they were so vastly different from the major classes. When something embodies all active and all passive abilities, how do you full explain and comprehend that?

I deliberated a long time and spoke with my good friend, shout out to @creative-classpect for helping me realize the best way to understand this.

Lords and Muses play a role similar to DMs in a DnD setting. Think about it. Master classes are two types of DMs. Lords are the idea of Dm vs players while Muses are Dms who work with players. They have such tremendous powers to work with, and they clearly show how they exert their powers. I'm still wrapping my brain around how Master classes with different aspects work, but the whole DM analogy has been an eye opener for me.

So I feel like sharing my troll ocs from years ago and their glowups. A lot of this will be copy/pasted from my personal info server on them.

First off is our girl Vandre Errant. She is a Seer of Void who uses Batkind.

Struggles with the idea that everything drifts into nothingness and obscurity. Looks for something to give them purpose. Has perfect vision in the dark/fog/mist/underwater. Struggles to choose a right path. Can tell if someone is hiding something. Sees the importance of obscure things.

Next is Elytra Ecyrus, a Bard of Mind using Macekind.

Avoids indifference and voices own opinions. Honest and open. Wants to prove they do care. Desire for strange things (his being bugs). Wants to stand out. Irrationally stubborn. Something will make them stop liking their interests and they become apathetic. Identity crisis. Tries to rationalize every feeling.

This is Heikka Ampoul, a Rogue of Space who uses Scissorkind.

Painfully attracted to women she doesn't know what to do with herself. Problem with change and creation. Does not like change at all. Has too many ideas they can't stick to. Self image issues. Little faith in their work and self. Always confused. Lonely at times.

Next is Citron Aselus, an Heir of Heart who uses Bowkind.

Well developed sense of empathy and compassion. Strong emotions. In tune with their needs. Never has self doubts. Quick to adapt to personal changes. Great judge of character. May be taken advantage of.

Here is Diamon Mantle, a Sylph of Life who uses Spearkind.

Encourages people to enjoy life to the fullest. Infectious joy. Big personality. Helps others achieve their goals. Small but strong. Always has an answer. Picky. Questions why you don't like something. Might force you to try and enjoy things.

Now we got Lilith Duivel, the Prince of Doom who uses Pitchforkkind.

Absolute bitch. Reckless and full of energy. Rule breaker. Can overcome any hurdle. Refuses to be limited. Can free others of emotional/mental/physical barriers even if the person doesn't want to. Pushes people past their limits. Savior or Dictator. Willing to push on in a failed event. Refuses to be stopped. Crushes all in their way.

This is my baby boy Indica Flammo, the Page of Blood who uses Lighterkind.

High as a Kite 24/7. Struggles to make connections. A try hard. Struggles with obligations. People are wary of them. Misplaced passion. Through hard work, trials, and errors they will become dependable. Will be able to fulfill promises. Will become a great leader. Will make unlikely allies.

Here we have Jessey Whyatt, the Knight of Breath who uses Revolverkind.

Western flick obsession. True independence and freedom. Not loyal to any side. Good sense of directions. Mercenary for hire. Feels like relying on others is a weakness. Fears settling down. Skilled at getting out of obligations. Willing to leave bonds behind.

This is Newton Mendel, the Maid of Light who uses Magnifyingglasskind.

Relies on others for info. Doesn't bother to do his own research. Superstitious. Blindly believes in others much like a student does with their teacher. Poor eye sight. After realizing self they create their own info. More like an active scholar. Can give things new meanings.

More to be added in a reblog since I'm out of photoslots lol

Few more. Here we go!

This is Zanmei Elpida, the Thief of Hope who uses Wirekind.

Very accepting of others. Acts positive when they need to be. Natural confidence. Optimism vampire. Wants to be a legend to everyone and be adored. Wants to be the best around.

Here is Alatus Whitei, a Mage of Time who uses Staffkind.

Struggles to enjoy things. Haunted by knowledge of destiny. Experienced some kind of loss. Follows strict routine. Haunted by the sound of something (likely Yahgyagh, long story). Has depression. Always aware of what time it is.

Lastly for the trolls we have Conica Physon, a Witch of Rage who uses Brassknuckleskind×2.

Rebellious and defiant. Manipulates fear and anger. Can turn a berserk rage in others on and off seemingly. Thinks life is a game. Loose Cannon. Always seems in control of a situation. Can make themselves be less of a threat than they really are.

Finally my non-troll ocs. Meet Caligula and Calypso. Still working on their personalities. All I got is Caligula wants to rule over all timelines and Calypso is the only shread of good between them
