So! I know not everyone likes troll text, so... :|a permissions meme I guess?

First though.

D --> Equius tends to talk like this
D --> He sort of
D --> Prefaces his writing and speech with arrows
D --> Though in talking he doesn't say them
D --> They're just sort of
D --> There
D --> Because that's just his thing
D --> Similarly
D --> Words like b100, b100d, pol100t, c001
D --> And so on
D --> Are replaced like that
D --> As well there are things like
D --> A%ept, instru%ion, e%elon

So those who have never seen his writing/dialogue can have an idea of what it is. In speech, the 100, 001, and % actually convey his accent, so people speaking with him can call him out on saying things that likely sound like 'axept', 'instrexion', 'exelon', and so on.

Can I use troll text with you/your characters? Just answer yes or no, it's cool.

Other Characters: Nathan

Character: Equius Zahhak, Heir of Void
Series: Homestuck
Deviance: Canon

Age: Six solar sweeps (13 human years)
Gender: Male
Species: Troll

Canon Used: HOMESTUCK

Appearance:

Skwisgaar: Yep. That's definitely a troll.

Psychology: One of the first things people conclude about Equius upon meeting him is he's a creep. And there are good reasons for it, too. Equius is... he's creepy. Or seems that way. He often stares at people from a distance, watching things go down. Especially if there's blood. But that isn't just the main creepy part to him. Equius, well. He's somewhat of a sex fiend. Not in the sense he has it a lot, but in the sense he has kinks. He has a lot of kinks.

As is he had the unfortunate luck of being the first to his troll puberty and got hit hard, and like any healthy young lad, his thoughts went straight into the realm of sex and sexytimes. And... kinks. It's fairly obvious to just about anyone his big thing is being demeaned or ordered around. Whether it's by a superior or by someone below him (for that extra bit of decadence), just as long as someone is there to dominate, Equius is willing to submit. And that's barely the tip of the iceberg that is Equius' kinks but I am seriously not writing any more into it because I feel like a creeper opening up this psych thing with "EQUIUS IS A FETISH FUELED SEX MONSTER".

Equius is the troll equivalent of a classist - he is obsessed with blood color and caste beyond all else. The lower your blood the lower your standing with him and the more he detests you (or feigns detesting you, more on that later). He is a complete slave to the system, so it seems, rigidly following every tenet and law regarding status. There is no room for deviance, and order must be maintained.

Never mind his doubt. Equius, for a sweep or two, has been plagued with the idea that maybe, maybe the blood castes are wrong. His moiraillegiance with Nepeta (which I will get into later) was one step towards doubting the validity, and then his budding flushed feelings for Aradia amplified it even more. Top it off with his loathing of Gamzee, his better, and he was left wondering. Maybe. Maybe it's wrong. But he would never voice it to anyone but Gamzee, of course not. His worries are private and for him alone. Usually.

As mentioned, Equius does sort of show some of his true colors to Gamzee once and a while. but mostly he is an open book to Nepeta, his moirail. She knows how he is deep down, since he shares pretty much everything with her. He'd do whatever he could to protect her and keep her safe, to the point where he seems abusively controlling of her. But it's less abuse and more fear of her getting hurt and his undying love for her that motivate him to keep her away from anything that he thinks could hurt her.

And let's use this to ease into the parts of Equius that aren't so readily apparent. Equius at his core is actually a pretty nice guy. He does care for his companions and his friends, but he keeps it hidden away. He's too strong and could easily hurt them, so he feigns disdain or disinterest most of the time. Really, the guy would love a hug and to give it out, but he never ever will. Sometimes being strong isn't that great.

Amusingly, while he is the muscle of the teams, he also seems to function as a sort of medic. Lose a limb? Go to Equius. Need a new body? Equius. And in my personal headcanon, he made Tavros' wheelchair, because why the fuck would trolls have wheelchairs? Equius clearly made it for him, despite Tavros being a rustblood. He'll do all of this without hesitation, repairing the wounds and maimings of his companions in the only ways he knows how.

Equius is also a romantic at heart. He's a fan of poetry (he often writes it himself), a fan of paintings (mostly of musclebeasts), and who knows what else. Romance is just something that comes to him, although he can't really do anything with anyone save Aradia due to his strength. Speaking of, despite his classist tendencies, he's a 'love knows no bounds' guy. He knows the scandal involved with b100 b100d being matesprit to a rustblood, but he can't control what his heart wants. And he'd do anything to make her what he thinks she deserves. Like fill a robot with his own blood.

Equius, despite what people may think, does have a sense of humor, but it's a very downplayed, sarcastic one. Most of the time people can't really pick up on it, it just sounds like typical Equius snobby commentary. But no, Equius has his sense of humor even if you peasants don't understand it. Your loss.

Due to his blood status, Equius is almost constantly on the verge of flipping out on a violent rampage. The higher up you are in the hemospectrum, the more violence, murder, and bloodlust knock on your little mental door, wanting to be let in. Thankfully, Equius has learned to adapt to his rages. He often fights robots to burn off any urges he has, and for the most part, it works. When it doesn't, he turns to Nepeta. She's more or less pacified him completely, and he knows it. He would shudder to think of the man he would be without her to calm him down.

Archery is one of his favorite things, but the poor kid has never fired an arrow. He's too strong. Despite this, he prefaces all his typing with D -->, a bow and arrow. Similarly, his 'number' is 100 (and reversed, 001). He is all about the 100s and 001s. And %. Does it have to do with purity? No one knows, but he is all about those things.

:| I dunno what else to say now.

Other Skills/Abilities: STRONG - Equius is very strong. Insanely strong. So strong he can't do most mundane tasks and he can't touch people for fear of hurting them.

Engineer - Equius is killed with building things, programming things, and so on. Robotics is his specialty.

Intelligent - EQUIUS IS A GENIUS, SERIOUSLY GUYS

Creep - He's so creepy it's a skill.

Void - Equius, as the Heir of Void, has void powers. An example of it was that an omniscient fellow couldn't see Equius or anything around him, it was just a blank spot. I was THINKING this might apply to psychics but I need to like quadruple check.

Other Weaknesses: STRONG - Know how I mentioned how strong he is? So strong he has trouble doing mundane tasks? Yeah.

Sweaty - it's pretty gross.

Nocturnal - Dusk, night, and dawn for this guy. Daylight hurts horribly.

For all of everything, Equius is still just a 13 year old kid with 13 year old kid tendencies. And stuff.

Canon Point: Right after meeting up with Nepeta in LOLCAT.

Reality Description: Equius grew up on Alternia, which will only be described briefly since he isn't there anymore. It was a planet with only children on it, raised by animals. The culture was more or less sort of vicious and brutal, as well. There were two moons, one green and one pink. THE SUN HUUUUUUUUURT. The end.

Land of Caves and Silence: Equius' personal world. It's blue. It has caves. It's pretty silent. It also has his castle like home tilted over in it. There are probably a bunch of puzzles that Equius never paid any attention to because he was just muscling through his world. There's probably some monsters around too but no one cares about them.

Land of Little Cubes and Tea: It's a land of little (sugar) cubes and tea. The ground is sugar cubes. There are gigantic tea kettles or whatever around. Also monsters. The sky is yellow or something, I forget and I'll check later.

Derse: This is where Equius' dreamself is. It's home to the Derse side of things, and is located like, outside things. The dreamers here can hear the old gods talking to them all 'hey dude sup'.

Skaia: It's like a chess planet.

There are too many NPCs to me to describe right now I will do it periodically but at this moment in time if I have to do it I will scream so hard. in fact i will quote karkat but change things around to reflect this status.

CG: IF YOU ASK ME TO WRITE ABOUT NPCS I AM GOING TO FLIP MY SHIT RIGHT OFF THIS FUCKING PLANET
CG: IT WILL JUST BE ME, SPINNING AND SPINNING AND SPINNING INTO ENDLESS NOTHING, SCREAMING

SHIT BETTER MAKE A REFERENCE POST FOR WORDS THAT CANONICALLY USE EQUIUS' QUIRK BUT YOU WON'T IMMEDIATELY THINK OF USING IT BECAUSE GOD KNOWS I'LL FORGET THEM. JESUS.

blahblah note: along with you know, 001 and 100 for ool and loo sounds, and % for x, % is also used for ct (instruction below) and sc (discussion) I guess. Also, % for cross, thus in words like ludicrous. crous = %. cc = % too? hm!!!!

di%ussion (wtf, is he pronouncing it like dixussion? that is now how you say it equius.)
instru%ion (probably pronounced instrexion)
ludi% (pronounced ludicross)
perfe%ion (another ct replaced)
predi%ion (another ct word)
una%eptible (double c???)
a%ept (following the above example)
distin%ion (more ct)
stru%ure (even more ct)
e%elons (echelons, ch as a 'sh' sound into %)
misdire%ion (ct)
roboti% (cs, a pretty clear % sound, contrasted to how fiddlesticks has no % despite the same sound Equius I don't get your quirk /sob)

blahblah words I've already ADD'd off this I just need to practice more
