Is it possible for someone to hack the game before playing to change major aspects about players without the game going nuts?

I think that the game would account for that, give the player a false title at first with the title it would be changed to being their true title all along. Skaia just works that way.

what do you mean by cancer and cancer-free? it's been awhile since i've finished Homestuck so my memory isn't really the greatest.

The universe frog that the trolls bred in their session had cancer. But the trolls universe frog itself was healthy.

If there can't be 2 of the same class or aspect in a session, wouldn't that make a maximum of 12 players? And A1 was most likely created by a session of 48.

I really like the theory that as the number of players increase the aspects begin to divide and become more specific. As for class, maybe there can be multiple of one, or maybe there’s more classes out there we don’t know about. It’s a mystery

Why Jane doesn't revive the dead trolls?

She may not be able to since they’ve been dead for a 3 years. Also, the fridge wasn’t brought into the new universe so she doesn’t have access to the bodies anyway. 

if the cherubs hatch in the new universe but far into the future, does that mean it's possible that calliope could be her own mother?

I’ve seen that theory going around and it’s definitely interesting but I’m not sure if a ghost wearing the Ring of Life can age. Also the cherub described as Calliope’s mother has full cheek swirls and Calliope does not. 

Why couldn't John and Jade communicate with the meteor crew while in the yard?

It’s not really touched on in canon. They still saw each other in dream bubbles though.

Why is Sawtooth's mouth a triangle wave when squarewave's mouth is a squarewave?

Irony

what's the page where kankri talked to karkat about moiralligance?

Here.

Hey Mods! Thank you guys for your work, I know this can be a fairly tedious job that you really aren't getting paid for, so from the bottom of my heart: Thank you. For everything.

Thank you and you’re welcome! We appreciate your message :D

when is it stated which universe the Cherubs were born in?

Aranea states here that universe the kids’ created is the one the Lord of Time will hatch in. 

Could an already fused sprite fuse with ANOTHER already fused sprite? Like, Davesprite and Jadesprite?

No. One of the sprites needs to only have one prototyping for them to merge into a sprite^2.

Wait the Beta kids werent the only players of their session?

No, the alpha and beta sessions function as one session. This is why the alpha kids have no Time or Space players in their group but they were successful. Dave and Jade function as their Time and Space heroes. 

What's the correlation (if any) between aspect and leadership qualities?

Blood players seem to be very good leaders. The Signless who was a pre-scratch Seer of Blood and Karkat, the Knight of Blood were both pretty good leaders.

Could you explain what happens during [S] Caliborn: Enter? Please

Caliborn has had Calliope’s dreamself assassinated so he has succeeded in pre-dominating the body but pre-maturely. Because of circumstantial simultaneity at the same moment Lord English is traveling through the dream bubbles and he arrives in a bubble with his memory of the Felt manor. He uses his rainbow lasers to destroy the bubbles and shatter a piece of Paradox Space. Dave watches from the meteor. 

Caliborn wakes and unlocks his leg and bites the other one off. He replaces it with a robot leg that Dirk helped him build. He releases his kernel sprite and it becomes a black hole, sucking in Earth and the red super giant that it orbits.

PM and Bec Noir pause their duel momentarily to observe the destruction of Paradox Space. 

Do single player sessions create a universe? Did Caliborn?

No. When a single person starts an Sburb session the goal changes. The end goal isn’t to create a new universe, it’s to gain unconditional immortality and an endless source of power.

Where is it stated that trolls see wings as a sign of divinity?

“Metamorphosis is clearly a significant part of troll biology, and therefore ingrained in their mythology. They’ve got cocoons everywhere, and are often likened to insects through biological terms. The wings have nothing (we know of) to do with troll adulthood. But have a lot to do with their perception of what ascension should be, which is the culmination of a pupation process. Which is why some may look to fairies as an ideal, or rule them out as fiction on account of the ideal they represent. Ascended trolls in this game are essentially magical fairies.

Humans do not have a good analog for this though, and enjoy no biological upgrades. Only powers and fashion.”

What happens to game constructs after the session is completed? Like the sprites and Prospit and derse and all that, do they disappear or what?

They don’t appear in Act 7 on Earth so it might be that they stay in the Medium along with the planets and consorts. But then again Terezi also doesn’t appear on Earth so we can’t be completely sure! Sorry.

Didn't feferi only make the dream bubbles accessible to the beta/alpha trolls and humans sessions? Why was Calliope in the dream bubbles?

Calliope states here that she herself created the dream bubble she was in.

Can a player's class and/or aspect change?

The is a well supported theory that a player can invert their godtier title.

When does Callie reveal her cherub form to the kids? And does she ever choose to or is it once she becomes alive again (thus having no choice)?

The kids first saw her cherub form when Roxy gave her the Ring of Life. Calliope has never been comfortable with her true form and doesn’t reveal it on purpose.

The consorts did not stay in the medium tho, they were there in Act 7

Consorts are the amphibian inhabitants of the player’s planets, not the chess people. 

How did Nepeta die?

Gamzee clubbed Nepeta to death with his Deuce Clubs. You can see her blood on his club during this flash.

Is a troll's ba-dong dong an actual tentacle/tentacles? (Aka, Tentabulge?)

Troll genitalia has never been shown or described in canon.

I have two questions. First, why do Kurloz and Damara support LE? Second, was Mituna god teir when the accident happened?

1. Kurloz serves Lord English because he follows the same religion as Gamzee and they follow Lord English as one of the mirthful messiahs and before someone messages me telling me I’m wrong and that Caliborn and Calliope are the mirthful messiahs here is a source from Andrew. We don’t know explicitly why Damara serves Lord English but the Handmaid did so this may have influenced her.

2. We’re not sure if Mituna is godtier since when asked he said he couldn’t remember. 

are any of kankri's rants fully written out or do they get cut off due to the size of the text boxes?

^^^ Summary of what Kankri said. 

Link to Read MSPA transcript for Openbound part 1.

Hey just wondering if you could give the link to the page with the post-scratch trolls when they're stuck on the meteor and it's like a game layout? I believe you play as Karkat and he walks around talking to all the trolls.

[S] Past Karkat: Wake Up

[S] Kanaya: Return to the Core

So my girlfriend and I are arguing over the dancestors, ancestors, and trolls and how theyre all related and since i can hardly comprehend the wiki, i came to my favorite homestuck fact desk to clarify. What are all 3 groups of trolls to eachother? how are they all related exactly? try to put it in the simplest way possible pLEase

Meenah’s group are the descendants of Karkat’s group. The ancestors are the post-scratch version of Meenah’s group. 

A long time ago I got into an arguement with someone over Damara and whether or not they meant the things she said to people. I had read that she only wanted to make people uncomfortable or just be mean while the other person had told me Damara was highly sexual and actively slept with the other trolls, though I remember nothing in the canon about her doing so. (Said person also admitted to not reading the comic at one point so it had me confused.) What is canon about Damara?

Damara uses her language barrier to say inappropriate stuff to other trolls because it amuses her. Although even if they can understand her like Rufioh she still makes crude remarks. Damara used to be a very meek and generally harmless girl but because of Meenah’s bullying and Rufioh’s betrayal, she made a drastic shift into the person we met. It’s not canon that she sleeps with all of the other trolls since they’re all either scared of her or find her unsettling.

What's the origin of Crowbar Juju Breaker?

There isn’t one. Juju’s don’t have an origin. Their timeline is cyclical 

Crowbar (Felt member) has some type of powers?

He was smart

since genitals is never mentioned,they have indirect intercourse and no concept of sexuality,what exactly identifies a troll's gender? do they even have that concept?

tiddies

What is Equius' relation to Lord English?

Equ is a piece of LE, one of the 3.5 souls that was trapped within Cal

Serkets can't mind control Pyropes or is just Vriska and Terezi?

Vriska’s can only control impressionable or weak-willed trolls. Aranea can mind control all trolls because she’s honed her abilities over the many sweeps she’s been in the bubbles. 

On the subject of already fused sprites fusing with already fused sprites, consider this possibility. Somehow, if Davesprite found an unprototyped kernelsprite, could he not touch it and become Davesprite^2? Then as the new kernelsprite still has one prototyping to go, he could touch Jadesprite and become Davejadesprite^3 and so on?

I suppose so

but isnt the whole thing about karkat is that he actually sucks at being a leader?

No, he’s a good leader, but he doesn’t think he is. It seems to be a running theme with Knights to not like/not think they’re good at their Aspect.

What if Terezi is in Act 7, as the camera :0

But her eyes no work? How she use the camera?

In fairness, Hussie says Caliborn and Scratch are the messiahs. Though Scratch does somewhat remind me of Calliope. Is that intentional or just some minor similarities?

That is intentional on Lord English’s part. 

was it ever stated where the ancestors were born/lived?

Alternia at various more specific locations and times. Except for Damara, she was brought directly to Doc Scratch’s place.

How does jade' popop life work exactly?We see bec kill him but he is in sburb to help out. Did Jade's popop have a dream self or was it because of hope he was less dead?

FAQ.

The first guardians don't need sleep or eat?

Bec eats and sleeps. He might not need to, but he does.

Why Pre-retcon Feferi and Nepeta don't talk?

Because the fandom desperately wanted them too and Hussie is a meanie

The session of FedorasFreak was a normal session and no a dead session?

Unknown

Jack is the only carapacian with a name? and exist some head canon name for WV, PM DD and other caparacians?

WV, PM, DD, HB, CD, AR, WQ, and WK all have canon names. Jack is far from being the only  carapacian with a canon  name

You saying in that Damara post that nobody has ever wanted to sleep with someone they found scary and unsettling? ;)

Did Damara confirm that trolls have nipples?

yes

Earlier you mentioned Equius being a part of LE through Lil Cal, but how did Cal end up with his soul?

Dirk put it in there

If the trolls are kind of like bugs, do they have bones like animals or hard shell/skin like bugs?

They have bones

Intelligence is a power in homestuck? Not surprising

Well compared to the other members of the Felt, yeah intelligence is a power.

yes but none of that actually states outright which group was the genetic forebear of the other. karkat created them all, sure, but it doesnt say which group he created first. doc scratch says whats a given: that a group will be regarded as another groups ancestors, it doesnt actually say who is the genetic forebear of another, just who chronologically came first. if we were basing it off how the kids worked, than the alpha trolls would be the forebears, but its never stated outright.

The fact that Karkat didn’t know who the extra 12 were proves that Karkat’s group is the parent generation. Because if they were the parent generation Karkat would have seen them on the screen when he had to clone them and get their ecto-goo for mixing. And actually if we based it off how the kids’ worked then the Alpha trolls would be the children generation since the human’s child generation played the game first.

Is nepeta as weak as people assume in canon or???

No
