Troll Tag/Chum handle
- The troll tag must have two words set into format with a lowercase letter beginning the first and an uppercase beginning the second with no spaces.
Ex: tipsyGnostalgic

- Those two starting letters(the beginning of each word) may only start with the A,T,C, or G for original timeline characters, OR A,U,C, or G for ancestor characters. These will be the Troll's acronym name when typing.
EX:
(gallowsCallibrator)CG: >:]
(uranianUmbra)UU: ^u^

- Trolls type in their blood color, unless it is mutant, then they type in grey

Troll Name
- All trolls

Is it alright for the blood color to be in between a dark pink and red color? Seadweller maybe?

The-Infamous-TCT In reply to Sammy10013 [2014-08-23 15:14:33 +0000 UTC]

I would say that would probably fall either in the mutant range or the rustblood caste, simply because the caste system doesn't loop around, and we know that tyrian is the highest possible blood color. if it were between purple and pink, i would say seadweller, but between red and pink would be on land

The-Infamous-TCT In reply to IceBlades700 [2014-08-23 15:13:24 +0000 UTC]

In theory, yes. Especially as we can assume that the condesce/meena and feferi had other ancestors before them. It is also mentioned that all but one tyrian blood is culled at a time, so potentially there could be lots of dead tyrians!

Depends on what topic you're addressing...blood can be any color(NOTE: Black and white are NOT colors), just as long as it is its own caste in the RP or fanfiction you're entering it into. No making more castes than twelve.

Xindao In reply to EuphoricInsanity23 [2014-05-01 05:19:34 +0000 UTC]

Yes. At most, indigo. But I'd say that's about as high as it's going to get for landwellers.

I have a question on bloodcolor. People always talk about how ocs cant have too high of a bloodcolor (I want her to be between Eridan and Feferi). Is that okay? Or should I rethink her bloodcolor?

wouldnt that make her a mutant? as white is lack of pigment all together shed be a albino troll and would most likely stick him in the sameΒ  boat as karkat

182bluekyokitty In reply to Mattzero106 [2013-12-22 01:58:40 +0000 UTC]

well she has different colored eyes but not a albino but some of my friend would call her a highblood

Mattzero106 In reply to 182bluekyokitty [2013-12-22 02:12:01 +0000 UTC]

think id place her between karkat and his lack of scale ans fefari at the top of the scale shed be in a mutated scale but if you took a scale of mutations and abnormalities from the fandom / cannon ie: the extinct lime, cherry red, rainbow etc... id stick her in that scale allowing her to be top of mutated (or bottom) thus in a ring being higher than fefari. White is a shade and lack of pigment so youd need to augment the color into an actually hue, most likely yellow. but if the white is a true white being : R:0G:0B:0 or R:10G10B10 / similar it would simply make her a rainbow blood.

ha wow i just saw some of the things you made on your account, make that on msp? I remember when i used msp its hard to get a handle on at times the windows 7+ versions even worse ha ha. Not being mean i probably sound horrible right now i dont mean to XD but if your looking for an upgrade, the new gimp isnt that nice but if you can get yourself a copy of 2.6 gimp i think you might like it : ) you get layers (instead of risking the lines getting messy you can put it on another layer kinda like transparent paper its nice C: ) and can give you a better hold on your drawings with its ink tool where you anchor down some lines and it will draw along the path you provided. Then ive been using sai as of late its not free but theres a leak of it on this site actually! Sai has some really nice line handles and a bunch of brushes, perfect for tablet use if you invest-if you dont the program still allows tilt functions and some superior tools. I use the combo of the two, my black and whites are done in gimp if you want to see how smooth gimp is-its on features not hard to find if your curious the best example of gimp i got is the one i put on large, it looks black but its not ha ha it took forever to do it feels and its overlooked often because it looks empty but thats how exact the lines can get with minimal effort : )
and for sai...eh im not good honestly but ive been using sai for about a month and i have a couple pictures in scraps from it if you wanna see some of the tools sai can offer, i did a collab with someone that was nice but unless you want to see it i wont fetch it trying to help out not self promote X,D but i really think that with the things your drawing gimp 2.6 would benefit you its free and there are brushes you can use on deviant art for free which would be suburb if you want to save a little effort~ on your horse on the main it probably took you less than a minute but what if i told ypu that a fuller riher main could be acheived in the same time or less using the fur brush made by....i forget ha ha if your interested i can send you links to the brushes wont be long!

Yeah those are like reeeaaalllllyyyyyy old so yeah I like drawing on paper . At the most I need a tablet but I'm a poor person and have no money so I'll have to wait on that so the most things I draw are hetalia assassins creed and home stuck . I'm commissioning someone for the walking dead and supernatural . But these people are from mah school and Kentucky has a very limited amount of otakus homestuckers and who fans but I have a cosplay group for hetalia and homestuck . I'm also in a cosplay group called mad panda cosplay and we do gender bent Oran high school host club . So I'm in like the 6th grade and yeah so a lot shiz going on in Kentucky XD

outlandishAnthology In reply to ??? [2013-01-03 09:43:16 +0000 UTC]

This is mostly accurate but a few things are just speculation:
Firstly, as mentioned by someone else, the powers the limebloods have/had was never stated in canon so what powers they did have is just speculation.
Secondly, it is never mentioned that indigobloods are semi-aquatic, only that they tend to have aquatic/semi-aquatic lusii and live near the ocean, though I've seen /headcanons/ for semi-aquatic indigobloods.
And in addition, you should never have any troll higher than Feferi on the hemospectrum and you should never have a troll who is related to any canon trolls in any way, shape or form.
Also you should mention that black, white, multi-colored, metallic and color-shifting blood are not ok.
Wow this wasn't meant to be this long sorry.

Whynothideinthere In reply to ??? [2012-10-02 00:33:16 +0000 UTC]

Also, Limeblood powers were never specified, and Indigo is blue. Gamzee is just purple. EQUIUS is indigo. Here's the canon hemospectrum: [link]

The-Infamous-TCT In reply to Whynothideinthere [2012-10-04 03:32:16 +0000 UTC]

They were not specified, but they were hinted at.
And more than once in the comic Gamzee is referred to as an indigo blood; the color wheel goes roygbiv-> blue, indigo, violet.
I'm afraid you've fallen victim to some poor labeling :c
Thank you for the input though ^^

Do you know either where a canon wiki is (I thought that was the one) or where specifically he was called indigo at least once? And it's kinda weird if he's indigo, hemospectrum or not, because in real life indigo IS blue. Now I'm just confused. Can you please help?
