The Alternian caste system and how it raises its trolls

Hey all! Taking a bit of a break from doing session analyses for a sec (thank you all so much btw i love doing them) to talk about something I didn’t think would come up since so few people use the full signs of their classpects, most likely because they’re talking about themselves or a friend and not a fantroll.

But it’s still important to recognize how Alternia structures its society in such a way that each troll would HAVE to take some part of their True Sign. Ever wonder WHY they call it a True Libra or True Cancer and the like on the aspect quiz? This is why. An important part of Doc Scratch’s and Lord English’s manipulation is that they changed the core values of troll society. Unlike Beforus Alternia is all about keeping groups sad and oppressed by their role on the caste, highblood or lowblood. This is all done in service to breed the True Signs, which would be people like Karkat or Gamzee or Feferi. Of course, THIS is all done so that the events of Homestuck can even take place, with each and every character in it (no matter how small their part is) being a cog in the machine to creating Lord English and perpetuate other dumb time loops. As such if your fanventure or the like doesn’t take place on Alternia or a troll planet under a similar caste system, you can PROBABLY disregard all this, though I would still look into how that planet’s society treats and raises its trolls.

Let’s start from the bottom: Rustbloods (burgundy-bloods...?). Rustbloods are overshadowed by the Time aspect. Time is the aspect of destruction and decay, but is also the aspect of work and labor. Oftentimes the Time player in a session is the resident busybody. Hence why Rustbloods are Alternia’s manual labor caste, and likely why they are the lowest on the spectrum.

Next is Bronzebloods. They mostly shadow the Breath aspect, which might not be readily apparent to most (it certainly wasnt to me). I think that this means that... Bronzebloods are raised to be expendable. Detached from their loved ones and treasured objects to be the main cavalry and footsoldiers in the war. This gives them the “freedom” of Breath, though it’s a sad and lonely freedom when you know that your life can be thrown away at any moment. Anyone would be resigned and detached at that point. <:B

Now Goldbloods seems to be the MOST obvious of the caste, or at least the secondmost. They are shadowed by Doom, and this is portrayed in them being used as living batteries for ships. Doom isn’t just about destruction. It’s about suffering, sacrifice, and unstable consumption. All of these fit the description of a person turned into a living battery. This also explains why most Doom-bound trolls are nihilists, or are severely pessimistic. You would be too if you knew you’d be a battery.

Limebloods seems to be the gray (hehe) area, as their true sign’s aspect shows as Blood. It’s possible that this represents 1. That there are meant to be no intense, caring bonds on Alternian society (hence why Karkat was a Knight of blood: even his planet lacked bonds and care) or 2. That a limeblood can ONLY survive through strong bonds and friendships (again, Karkat). Either way, we haven’t seen any official limebloods (that out themselves as limebloods) and so we don’t know how they would be “raised”.

Olive Bloods are shadowed under the Heart aspect. While Olive bloods don’t really have a set or concrete role in Alternia’s society, this actually fits Heart perfectly. Heart is all about individuality and uniqueness! Of course the caste that fits Heart wouldn’t really be able to be pegged down as a single role.

Jadebloods: Ghost Space. This is seen pretty clearly when they are in charge of the creation and perpetuation of lil troll babies. They’re even banished to an entirely separate part of Alternia, which fits Space’s  intense loneliness. You might be thinking that Life would be a better fit for them, as they ARE creating Life. However, Life is more of an aspect of improving and bettering what is already there. SPACE is the aspect of creation, and as such why they are set to create life.

The most obvious one by far is the Tealbloods. They ghost Mind, as they stand in for Alternia’s entire legal division. They judge, prosecute, and defend the CHOICES of others and alter the CHOICE their jury makes. Mind is also just flat out about strategy and intelligence, which a lot of Tealbloods are known to have.

Cerulean/Bluebloods are shadowed under the Light aspect. I kind of see this as them being technically highbloods, and thus have access to enormous wealth and fame. This would of course breed Light’s sometimes outwardly pompous attitude.

Indigobloods fit into the Void aspect as their True Aspect. This kind of makes sense, as the Indigobloods main job is to perpetuate Alternia’s caste system, and fit well into whatever role they ARE given. They are “nothing” until they are given a role and a purpose, which Alternia forces on them. Them “being” nothing/void is what would eventually lead to Equius, an Heir of Void.

Purplebloods naturally are surrounded by Rage, being negative emotions and confusion. What illicits more negative emotions and pure confusion than clowns? Not only that, but their sheer strength and focus on violence also fits into Rage, which is often linked to physical harm. They also perpetuate these negative emotions by being so oppressive on those who disobey Alternia’s law.

Violetbloods are... tricky. Their true sign says Hope, but... there isn’t even much to go on about them. We only have Cronus and Eridan, and their roles in alternian society aren’t explained besides being royalty. It’s entirely possible that this is the point: they’re just wealthy buttholes. Delusion and immense power are what encompass Hope, and oftentimes royalty are delusional fools with immense power. Of course, not as much power as...

Fuschiabloods. Fuschia’s true sign spells Life, and this is mostly seen in Feferi’s ideals. As said above, Life is all about betterment for what’s ALREADY there. Fuschiabloods are the ruling class, and NORMALLY would be expected to improve/continue ruling Alternia. One could even take it a step further and say that the Condesce killing off any possible opposing Fuschiabloods represents killing Life, too. Making sure that Alternia never gets better through a different ruler.

And that’s all the classes! I want to reiterate that you don’t HAVE to take these into consideration, even if you DO have your fantroll on Alternia. However, it’s always nice to think how its differing society has an effect on its people, and how the society basically acts as a shadow that each and every troll lives under and is expected to live up to.
