I heard we were doing off-planet fantrolls so I thought I'd show off one of mine, Elyura Adyata (yes, related to Wanshi). She was my trollsona's mentor during her time in the jade caverns, but aged out into exile a little while before the main events of Homestuck proper. She was sent off-planet to live in a massive colony ship known as the Outer Cloisters, where she works both as an Archivist compiling information from meetings between the military brass and various highblood noble factions, including information gathered by expedition squadrons, as well as performing duties as a jadeblood mother taking care of the grubs that result from various experimental breeding programs.
She's discovered that pretty much everything that Alternians are taught about the Empire on-planet is bullshit propaganda meant to breed obedient soldiers and not much else. Really the only thing that isn't faker than magic is the caste system - even the Empress herself isn't actually running the whole show; she answers to someone else.

sorry for the delayed reply on this, i got distracted from my inbox!!
but also THIS IS SO COOL! also great minds think alike, i also have a jade fantroll that works as an archivist that pieces together the empire's propaganda (not inso far as Condy answering to someone else though!) and attempts to take action about it but things don't end too well for him on that end before he can even go off-planet himself 💀
(older art from 2022 but best pic i have of him rn!)
also i love the pupils OO. the best of luck to your archivist, i hope her endeavors in her story fare better than mine!
