Hey guys! I decided to do some sprite edits for a character I have for Realitybound. I got the sprite bases from @popo-merrygamz and from the Homestuck wiki.
In Realitybound, there are these twelve players that the Alpha and Beta trolls descended from. These “True Betas” were the trolls’ first lives, the ones that banished the main villain of Realitybound and saved reality.
Akane Megido is the first iteration of Aradia and Damara Megido. She is more Damara/Handmaid-like in looks, but is more Pre/Post Scratch Aradia-like in personality. Akane is the Mage of Time, the daughter of Timaeus (a primordial I will talk about in Realitybound), and is of silver blood in the Dimension Walker society (another thing I will talk about in the story). These are just concepts for her appearance. Pre-game and grimdark/demon are set in stone, but I’m still iffy for her post-game appearance. (The one I have planned is in the bio.)
I’m going to do more sprites for the True Betas in the future, so watch out for that!

{ Aspects }

*NONE OF THESE PICTURES BELONG TO ME. THEY BELONG TO THEIR RESPECTIVE OWNERS. I GOT THESE PHOTOS ON GOOGLE. HOPEFULLY THE LINKS I HAVE PUT WILL LEAD TO THE OWNERS. THE ONES WITHOUT LINKS ARE THOSE I COULDN’T FIND THE OWNER.*
Classes are one half of the mythological roles/titles that players have, while aspects are the other half. All classes are unisex/genderless, despite the classes sounding feminine or masculine. They have no bias towards any gender/sex whatsoever, regardless of if some show a bias. All roles are meant to CHALLENGE players.
The Thief, They Who Steal To Gain The Desired
Thieves are those who steal through illegal or immoral ways. They are also called burglars or robbers.
The Thief is “they who steal to gain the desired”. Meaning, a Thief uses their aspect to steal to get anything that they desire or think will benefit themselves. It’s not necessarily their aspect they desire, but it could also be anything relating or not relating to their aspect. They can use their aspect to aid in their thieving, in short. For example, a Thief of Mind could think out a plan to steal something their denizen took from their planet. The Thief is using their mind, therefore using their aspect to steal. Thieves are usually very cunning and sly people, though not all the time. But, almost all Thieves are clever and observant. They know when to steal and how to do it. Though they are not evil, players should keep an eye on Thief just in case.
Thieves are an active class, and their counterpart is the Rogue.
Challenge: Thieves must learn to be less concerned about what others think of them. They must stop trying to become their “picture-perfect self”.
The Rogue, They Who Give To Be Free
A rogue is someone who is dishonest or unprincipled. Their behavior is usually disapproved of, but they are still likable or attractive nonetheless.
The Rogue can be described as “they who give to be free”. They are burdened by their aspect, so they share it to be free of it. Unlike the Thief who would use their aspect to help benefit themselves, the Rogue does not want to benefit from their aspect. They rather give it away to help others, rather than burden themselves with it. For example, a Rogue of Hope could be tired of their constant optimistic values. So, they share their optimism so they can think more realistically than optimistically. Rogues are usually very generous and kind people, who would have a hidden sadness hidden behind their happy facade.
Rogues are a passive class, and their counterpart is the Thief.
Challenge: Rogues must learn to accept their burdens and embrace them. They must understand their burdens are not there to weigh them down, but there to teach them how to become stronger.
The Heir, They Who Inherit In Order To Create
An heir inherits something from a predecessor, or is continuing their legacy. They are also called “successors” or “descendants”.
The Heir can be described as “they who inherit in order to create”. Heirs will inherit their aspect, slowly changing and eventually becoming it. Once they become their aspect, they are able to create and manipulate it. They use their aspect to protect themselves, sometimes creating force fields made of pure energy and their aspect. Heirs are usually the leaders of the group, though often they can become the team’s most valuable player.
Heirs lean towards being an active class, and their counterpart is the Maid.
Challenge: Heirs must learn to control their emotions/impulses and learn to communicate. They must learn that they are not alone.

All Maids have to prove themselves throughout their sessions, showing that they are capable of protecting and maintaining. They can be one of the most powerful of classes.

The Page, They Who Shall Inspire In Order To Grow
A page was a young boy in training for knighthood, ranking just below a squire. They served and were taught by knights.
The Page is “they who shall inspire in order to grow”. At the start of their session, the Page will not be at their full potential and lack their aspect. They must take time and learn to harness their powers, slowly growing as the game progresses. Rushing a Page will only hurt them. In order for them to grow, they must understand the meaning behind their aspect and learn to protect and inspire others to use it. Once they properly grow, a fully-realized Page can be quite powerful and great. They can create their aspect, and can easily inspire or protect others through their aspect. Their growth can be easily represented in their personality. A Page of Heart could have a hard time expressing their feelings or figuring out who they are. Once they grow, they can express feelings as easily as they know who they are.

Knights must learn how to equip themselves with their aspect, and they must understand the limits of their aspect. They are not able to manipulate or control. They are only able to use their aspect as a weapon. In a way, Knights conceal their aspect or some “imperfection” that may or may not relate to their aspect. A Knight of Heart could conceal their emotions, wearing a mask that could hide their heart. A Knight of Rage could keep their anger in check, preventing them from showing their rage. But, in time, they will learn to accept themselves.
Knights are an active class, and their counterpart is the Page.

The Mage is described as “they who suffer to gain or give knowledge”. The Mage has extensive knowledge about their aspect, often leading them to tragedy and suffering. They can easily be manipulated by their aspect and their knowledge does not benefit them in any way. Their knowledge comes at a price, a price sometimes worse than death.

A Prince of Breath may lack direction or freedom, but their understanding of unity and solidarity ghost the aspect of Blood. The Prince is a destroyer class, though that can be a bit misleading. They destroy through or via their aspect rather than destroy their aspect itself. The Prince can also control their aspect, and command others through their control of their aspect.

Their prowess in battle strategy and scarily impressive intelligence are the main reasons why this class are fit to be destroyers.
