Pretty sure that even if Roxy could create some slabs for the trolls there's an important fact to remember: their dream selves are dead and to my knowledge you can't go god tier without one because you have to die.
Dream slabs don’t require a dream self to ascend on, only Quest Beds do.
What even IS Skaia? It really confuses me. Also how is the battlefield inside Skaia? Can you stand on or touch Skaia? How do you get inside? Sorry about all the questions but Skaia makes no sense to me.
Skaia is the dormant crucible at the center of the session that is made of dense clouds that show past, present, and future events. The planet at the center of Skaia is the Battlefield which evolves with each prototyping.
When did Terezi go god tier and why isn't she god tier in the retcon timeline? >:?
Alpha Terezi never went god tier.
How did Roxy get the Ring of Life?
John found it in the Furthest Ring and gave it to Roxy so she could revive Calliope.
Okay so, as I understand it, sburb exists to help a universe "reproduce" in a sense, and the players of the game get to rule over their newly created universe. If so, where are the players of the session that created the kid's session? Tell me if I've just completely corkscrewed the entire idea but I never see any godlike people ruling over the kids' universe.
Karkat and his team where the ones who created the kids’ universe, they just never entered it.
is snowman being the tied to the a2 universe a pool reference? im pretty sure it is but i just need confirmation whether or not.
Yes, I believe it’s a reference to the fact that in Eight Ball Pool if you pocket the eight ball before your others then you lose.
do you think that since the B2 kids didnt use their slabs, that the trolls can use then (ei kanaya use jades slab) because of same aspect? or is it hard wired for specific DNA (since the game has their DNA because of paradox cloning) and that this is checked through the blood?
Jade’s Sacrificial Slab was at the center of the moon of Prospit and Jack Noir destroyed that planet early on in their session. As for whether or not players who share aspects can ascend on the other player’s Sacrificial Slab, I’m really not sure.
are dream slabs the same thing as sacrificial slabs? how many different kinds of slabs are there to ascend on?
They’re the same. You can ascend on either a Sacrificial Slab or a Quest Bed.
For post 120903245099 where was this detailed/mentioned?? Not like I don't believe you, but I want to reread that section! Thank you in advance!
On this page, Aradia states that Karkat’s computer didn’t run the virus that Sollux sent him which doomed the timeline. His computer exploded on this page in the alpha timeline before the session started.
Im sorry, but i dont understand the whole Cronus thinks he is a human concept, is this just a fanon thing?
No, it’s canon. He refers to himself as “humankin” and he thinks of himself as a 1950s-style greaser.
where is it stated that calliopes session was made by the alpha kids?
Already answered that.
wasnt there a doomed timeline where Gamzee kills everyone before Sgrub?
Yes, the one where Karkat didn’t run the virus and Gamzee killed everyone happened in the same doomed timeline.
Why is it important that Calliope is revived?
Because she deserved a second chance and also she’s precious.
Is it canon Dave will kill lord english?
Dave seems to think his prophecy (“They wait for he who would drop it like it’s hot whilst the pimp’s in the crib.”) refers to him being the one to defeat Lord English, the space pimp with the gold tooth and cane. The Condesce also believes he’ll kill Lord English.
What exactly is Lil Hal. I'm sorry, it's been a while since I've read the comic and I don't remember ever really reading about it.
Lil Hal is another name for the Auto Responder AI in Dirk’s shades.
Does Aranea have telekinesis? She moved planets in GAME OVER, but it's not listed as a power of hers anywhere nor does Vriska have it. Was that her controlling multiple Damara ghosts again?
Yes, she was mind controlling 3 Damara ghosts.
Yo so, my curiosity was peaked by another few questions you've recieved recently, and just wondering, so caliborn's universe is created by the alpha kid's session, which is created by the beta kid's scratch, which is in the universe karkat's group created, and the alternian trolls played in the post-scratch of the beforus trolls, but then how was that universe created? And caliborn won his session, was it mentioned which universe was created from that?
The session that created the trolls universe hasn’t been mentioned in-comic. Hussie said jokingly in his Formspring that it was created by a 48 player squiddle session. Caliborn won his session but the goal of a solo session isn’t to create a new universe but to obtain unlimited power and immortality.
Can't Kanaya go god tier with the bed on LOFAF?
No, Quest Beds require a living dream self.
In the retcon timeline, is Aradia still alive?
Yes.
Hey so you've probably been asked this before, I'm not really sure, but what ever happened to brobot? After he fought jake he exploded if I recall, but I never understood why, also him tearing his heart out was that just completely pointless or a confession of love? Also unimportant really, but do you ship dirk jake?
Brobot had uranium inside of his chest which is what Jake needed to power the machine to send the green package to John in the B1 session. I don’t ship DirkJake and I don’t think Mod T does either.
source on “humankin”?
This Flash game where you’re introduced to Cronus.
Is it possible for the alpha session to be scratched?
There wouldn’t be any point in scratching their session since a scratch switches the group of players and then we’d have the Beta kids playing again.
in which page dave's prophecy was mentioned?
This Flash game is where the prophecies are mentioned on the flags with the Beta kids’ aspect symbols on them.
where is caliborn's name revealed?
[S] Caliborn: Enter is where his name is first revealed.
Why didn't davesprite and Dave combine like jadesprite and jade did? Is it because he used a sacrificial slab? Or because davesprite was not made of a dream self?
Yes, it was because he wasn’t Dave’s dream self.
Where does it say Kankri has a flush crush on Latula??
In this Flash game where he’s introduced.
Is it canon that Dualscar has his scars running diagonally across his face, or is it just something that's a common fan theory?
Yes, he had the same scars as Cronus.
How does HIC think Dave will kill Lord English? She hasn't spoken in canon before, has she?
Jade states here that Dave has been identified as the one to deal Lord English the killing blow and that it’s the will of the empress.
1. Can Godtiers die of age? 2. Did other universes exist before the trolls universe, 3. and what happened to them? are they gone, how? 4. The green sun is like the sun for all universes that has, does and will exist?
1. Godtiers are immortal so no.
2. Yes, we just haven’t heard about them in-comic.
3. We just don’t know.
4. The Green Sun is an enormous sun and instead of planets revolving around it, there are galaxies revolving. Dave and Rose created it when the blue and red bomb inside the Tumor went off. It was fueled by two dying universes. The trolls’ universe died when Spades Slick shot Snowman and the humans’ universe died when Bec Noir used Red Miles on the Genesis Frog.
..5. If, aren't Rose and Dave creators of everything then?? 6. Is there an other still existing universe?
5. They only created the Green Sun.
6. All we know about is the A universe where the trolls lived, the B universe where the humans lived, and the C universe where the cherubs lived.
So was Karkat x Nepeta never canon? When was that established?
Nepeta had a flushed crush on Karkat and he knew but he didn’t reciprocate her feelings.
If the cherubs and humans were in different universes, how did the cherubs live on Earth?
The humans will bring Earth into the new universe they create and years into the future the male cherub will lay an egg there and Calliope and Caliborn will hatch.
You said that if only one person doesn't prototype, it's void, but that doesn't make sense. Each prototype modifies the battlefield, so wouldn't even only one prototyped kernel make the game winnable?
All the players need to prototype at least once pre-entry for the Battlefield to fully evolve to it’s final form.
If I remember correctly, for the anon asking about Karkat x Nepeta, they became a "canon" couple in a doomed timeline/ dream bubble, didn't they?
During this conversation with Jaspersprite, he suggests that Nepeta may have hope with Karkat even if she dies. A dead godtier Karkat and a dead Nepeta in her Derse attire were seen together in [S] Roxy:Sleepwalk so they may be together in that timeline.
Why did Dualscar kill Dolorosa? Was he jealous of their relationship despite him being the one who broke up with Mindfang? Was he mad that a highblood like Mindfang slept with a midblood? Or did he recognize her from the Signless' execution?
He was upset that Mindfang stole her from his ship since the Dolorosa was his slave. He was also jealous that Mindfang was sleeping with lowbloods. Dualscar is also a mean guy.
Didn't karkat have a flush crush on jade?
Yes, at one point he did.
What would happen if an alive player died on their sacrificial slab with their dream selves still living? Would the ds merge with the new god tier, or would it just die?
FAQ
Why did roxy give calliope the ring John gave roxy ? I'm confused on that
It’s the Ring of Life and if a ghost puts it on then they’re revived. Roxy wanted to revive Calliope so she gave her the ring.
Can someone still go god tier without a dream self?
FAQ
Could Nepeta be revived with the Ring of Life?
Yes, any ghost that puts on the Ring of Life will be brought back to life.
Two questions: do you think the yellow moon seen at the beginning of the Intermission (page 003054) is the Prospit that Lord Jack partially destroyed? And why does Spades Slick hate Lord English?
The Intermission takes place on Alternia, not in the Medium so no, I don’t think that’s the Prospit that Lord Jack destroyed. Spades Slick hates Lord English because he’s the leader of the Felt and they’re rivals with the Midnight Crew.
not exactly a question, but i really wanna know how exactly jades grandpa managed to enter the medium to collect her dead dreamself, and how he got back to earth. i dont believe that was ever explained and it continues to bug me. please correct me if im wrong.
FAQ
Hey could you link to the FAQ? I'm on mobile and can't find it 😅
Here you go.
Is the goal of the game to create a new universe
Yes.
3 forgotten facts about john?
John has watched Sailor Moon, he likes Crash Bandicoot, and he’s played Legend of Zelda Wind Waker.
because gamzee's god tier is just a costume, that could mean that his bard costume isn't the actual bard god tier outfit
No, unfortunately it is the canon Bard outfit. A dead godtier Cronus is shown in [S] Ministrife! with the exact same outfit and a ghost Eridan even mentions his codpiece.
Okay. I'm confused about Karkat's symbol. So. The ancestors are real history for the main trolls, right? And the signless, um, doesn't have a sign. His symbol comes from his shackles or whatever. And people who believed in what he was doing wore that sign. (Right?) But why is Karkat wearing it like anyone else's ordinary sign?
Yes, the ancestors are real history to the trolls and his symbol comes from the shackles used on the Sufferer. Karkat needed a sign because he was a mutant and off the hemospectrum but every troll needs to wear a sign. The cult of the Sufferer set up Karkat’s symbol to be the shackles. If you’re asking why people didn’t notice he was wearing the same sign as the Sufferer, it may be because during Karkat’s time the story of the Sufferer was considered an ancient superstition.
What page is the Flash where all the Beta Trolls are fighting thier Black armies? Or Does that even exist?
Hussie didn’t make a Flash of their fight with the Black King but there is a fanmade one.
what happens to your dream self if you're killed while you're sleeping?
Your dreamself will begin to die as well unless someone kisses your corpse in time.
Where does it state that killing Snowman kills the universe?
Here.
