the main man
my best friend and all around awesome dude. really cool, into shitty movies that he won't stop talking about, ever. so annoying. still a great friend and awesome dude. really loves pranking people.
talks like this. man, i sure do love con air!!! nicholas cage is the greatest actor alive! let me reference more terrible romcoms that i'm utterly and completely obsessed about! dave, you care about this stupid nonsense, right? right?ROSE LALONDE
the super serious one
man she is miss no fun mcfussypants. i swear to god she has a stick crammed so far up her ass it's amazing she can still walk. still though, she's nice enough when she's not yammering on about bullshit or writing a fucking one hundred page walkthrough on gamefaqs. goddamn rose, it's not a fucking race. fucking sheesh.
likes to knit and into that dark emo bullshit.
Talks in this manner. I swear to god, Dave, I am so in love with you that it hurts. I desperately, desperately want to jump your collective bones, but I hide it behind a false front of sarcasm and irony so you won't understand my true feelings. But you're just too awesome and clever for the ruse to work.JADE HARLEY
the crazy happy girl
jade is uh...well...yeah. she's super happy all the time and loves that cutesy bullshit. she's very...weird, and she seems to know about shit before it happens. she's really nice but also really excitable. has a problem with narcolepsy.
talks like this!!! man dave you are SUCH the nicest guy, thank you so much for the SUPER NEAT picture that you sent me! THANK YOU!!!! DAVE STRIDER
the best. ever.
i saved the best for last. that's me. i'm basically the coolest, most sick biznasty motherfucker that you'd ever have the pleasure to meet. interests? being awesome, saving the motherfuckin' day, laying down sweet rhymes ironically (well just being ironic in general), trying to be as cool as my bro. i am such the shit i surpass shit and go on to be...
CAL!
CAL WHAT THE FUCK ARE YOU DOING HERE
GET THE FUCK OUT
i uh..where was i? doesn't matter, anyways
THE GUARDIANS
DAD
john's dad. from how john described him to me, dude's always been obsessed with clowns or some shit. seems to really like hats too. and ties. seems like a pretty upstanding guy to me, john probably doesn't get along well because his dad doesn't share his homosextacular nicholas cage obsession.
whatevs
BEC (AKA BECQUEREL)
jade's dog. creeps me right the fuck out, it's like both alive AND dead or something. or maybe unalive. just really weird, like jade herself. man i don't even know sometimes, just one creepy as hell fucking dog. plus it has no eyes! what the fuck what kind of dog has no fucking eyes. fucking bec. fucking devil dog.
MOTHER
rose's mom. rose and her mom have a very...complicated relationship. apparently they're in some sort of passive-aggressivity oneupsmanship contest, sorta like that movie pay it forward but for assholes. jesus christ pay it forward was such a shitty movie. thanks a lot
john for reminding me
BRO
my bro. aka the sultan of awesome, the most cool motherfucker on this motherfucking planet and the dude i aspire to be in every aspect of my life. his capacity for irony is unmeasurable by normal humans, and yet, here is the greatest part,
he doesn't care. truly he is a master at everything he does, right down to his badass motherfucking shades he wears. i mean, look at those shades. fuckin' amazing.
...
Okay, so there's a...lot...of other people but Dave couldn't possibly know who they are, even tangentially, so I'll take it from here. Just as
another warning, there's ALL SORTS of spoilers in all of this nonsense so don't read if you want to be surprised!
THE EXILES
The exiles are a group of (currently) four....people? who seem to maintain contact with the chums as they enter into the game of Sburb. They seem to know a lot about the game the Chums are currently playing, and
seem to be willing to help. Of course, why the Exiles are willing to help, and what their motivation
to help is, remains to be seen...
WAYWARD VAGABOND
The current, beloved mayor of Can Town. Not much is known about his past, besides a bizarre hatred for kings. Really loves TAB, but who doesn't? No one, that's who.
PEREGRINE MENDICANT
Wandering the desert alone by herself, her past is equally as murky as WV's. She seems to wield a badass sword and loves delivering mail. She's got a mission to complete, however...
AIMLESS RENEGADE
Obviously, he's crazy as hell. I mean, he's wearing 'Caution' tape as a form of clothing! What's up with that? Dangerous and untrustworthy, honestly.
WINDSWEPT QUESTANT
She's searching for something, or
someone. She has a certain air about her, one of almost...
nobility.
That's probably really unimportant to the overall plot of the comic, however.
THE MIDNIGHT CREW
A group of four criminals, the Crew were originally an in-joke conceived due to a fan donation during the Problem Sleuth arc. (Andrew Hussie used to draw non-canon 'commands' based off of reader donations totalling twenty dollars or over). Since then they've grown into a fan favorite, and are featured heavily in Homestuck. Heck, the Intermission between Acts 3 and 4 are centered around them. They probably don't have anything to do with the main story though. No, definitely not.
SPADES SLICK
The leader of the notorious Midnight Crew, this surly gangster is entangled in a gang war with rival gang The Felt. They've just forgotten one thing:
he built this town. (Thanks Speed!)
CLUBS DEUCE
The nicest gangster ever to blow you the fuck up. Unfortunately, he's got a head full of empty, so he's not exactly the sharpest knife in the corpse. That's how the expression goes, right? Eh. Anyways, CD is a pretty swell dude. When's he's not
killing you, that is.
See? Look how nice he is.
So nice.
DIAMONDS DROOG
Always fuckin'
furious. Second in command, most stylish,
and all about the bottom line. Through your kidneys.
Don't mess with his hats, though. Don't mess with him in general, actually. Ba-aaa-aaa-aad idea, is what I'm saying here.
HEARTS BOXCARS
YOU HATE CHARACTER DESCRIPTIONS YOU HATE CHARACTER DESCRIPTIONS YOU HATE CHARACTER DESCRIPTIONS YOU HATE CHARACTER DESCRIPTIONS YOU HATE CHARACTER DESCRIPTIONS YOU HATE CHARACTER DESCRIPTIONS YOU HATE CHARACTER DESCRIPTIONS
MISCELLANEOUS
Other vaguely-important characters to the plot. By no means a complete list.
JACK NOIR
Who the hell is Spades Slick? Jack doesn't have time for this silly bullshit. As DERSIAN ARCHAGENT he has a LOT of official clerical duties to blow off. And a lot of stupid bullshit hats to not wear. He's a very busy....man?
Despite his appearances, he's just a normal worker drone with a boss he hates and a job he can't stand. How hard could his boss' job BE, anyways? Ruling a kingdom can't be THAT tough....(Thanks again Speed!)
GRANDPA HARLEY
man that dude is fuckin' intense as HELL. jade's grandpa is possibly the raddest motherfucker alive...oh...er....hmmm. well you know what i meant anyways.
NANNA
john's grandma, been dead for years. not even sure why rent is wasting the space on her. eh.
Welcome to the D and D MSPA (Homestuck/Hivebent) thread, wherein we discuss the daily drawings of a certain Andrew Hussie and theorize as to what the hell is going to happen. Spoilers will be, obviously, discussed with NO TAGS, so if you're a first time reader it would just be in your best interest to make sure that you just skip out from reading this thread until you've perused the whole story. It's over 2700 pages, though, so be warned that this isn't exactly a light undertaking or anything if you DO decide to go this route. But it's worth it. Oh god is it worth it.
Here's the direct link to page one of act one if you feel like taking the plunge.
Current count for the Homestuck story is five acts (plus one intermission), and it's supposed to take seven full acts to complete.
Current act we're in right now: Act 5, aka "Hivebent", starring those lovable scamps the trolls.
Who are the trolls? Not saying. Too spoilery. Read Homestuck if you want to find out! Plus, you get to read one of the best webcomics ever. You'll thank me later.

Is anybody using Pesterchum, and is it totally rad?
people used to use it during the week long break after Kisspocalypse: The Shippening, but now they don't. apparently it's a shitty IM client so uh, take that as you will I guess. it's supposed to be fun if you like to troll though
Can't wait for the Troll flash update!
also while making these, this totally happened.
edit- oh gog they just kept coming
you're all right
I'm trying to be nicer than my similarly-named companion but you make it so freaking hard
also I just downloaded pesterchum for the first time ever to change everything else but
how do i get the chat window open
Never change Gamzee. Never ever change.
(Also Sollux got the glub but he's a low blood so no use caring about him)
There seems to be a lot of it.
FO' REALS
I hope Sollux isn't really dead, I was sure we'd seen him talking to the kids or helping with the computers or something earlier
but he gets better
heh, thanks Muse
hey guys you don't have to post stuff in spoiler tags
