CLASSPECTING DELTARUNE CHARACTERS GRAHHHHHHH

WARNING: OBVIOUS SPOILERS FOR DELTARUNE AHEAD!!! Note: This post will only cover the Main Trio and some Lightners. Let me know if you want this to be a multipart series for Darkners as well!

Susie: While it is a BIT controversial to say she's anything but a Rage Player, I don't think that she is. A lot of people Classpect her as a Knight of Rage but forget a fundamental part of Knight as a Class, which is that they act like they don't care about their Aspect. Dave as a Knight of Time seems like a cool, mellow dude who just wants to be chill and pass the time with relaxing, when in reality, he's the most organized, punctual Beta Kid who is constantly worried about how he spends his time. Karkat as a Knight of Blood acts like he doesn't care about his friends and just wants to be a big bad scary leader when in reality, he cries over literally minor inconvenience about his friends. A Knight becomes fully realized once they embrace that side of them that they seem to not care about. Susie is very open about her anger and shame, which is not what a Knight of Rage would do. Y'know what she is hesitant about? Being a hero. Being anything OTHER than a angry teen. Her development in Chapter 4 where she finally starts to embrace the prophecy and the ideals it lays before her are when we see her at her healthiest (before it comes crashing down because of the final piece of the prophecy but we can ignore that). For that reason, I truly believe that she WOULD be a knight. But a KNIGHT OF HOPE! Not a Knight of Rage. Ralsei: I feel like this is pretty obvious. Everyone agrees that he's a Void player of some kind. Prince of Darkness. Makes sense. Obviously he is not a Prince of Void though. In my opinion, I think he's a SYLPH OF VOID, just for basic kinda reasons. Sylph is a healer class that blabs about their aspect, Ralsei is a healer who constantly blabs about the roles Darkners are supposed to play. Void is all about obscuring information and hierarchies, Ralsei constantly obscures information from Kris and Susie while deeming himself to be lower than them because he's a Darkner. Pretty cut and dry for me, although I'd love to hear your thoughts on it. THE PLAYER (NORMAL ROUTE): To me, the player seems like a SEER OF BLOOD simply because they can see all possible options laid before them whilst also actively benefiting the relationships of people Kris is close to. Also being connected to Kris and well, Blood is all about connections. And because everyone on tumblr has played Deltarune and name me ONE person on this website who doesn't do the "holier than thou" shit that Kankri does.

THE PLAYER (WEIRD ROUTE): Now, on the other hand, the player on the weird route is actively destroying all of Kris' relationships for the sake of cultivating their relationship with Noelle in a sick and fucked up way. As such, weird route player is a PRINCE OF BLOOD instead, not to mention that Prince of Blood not only destroys connections but destroys WITH connections and I mean, we did force Noelle to destroy Berdly.

(Not me though because I've never played the Weird Route so haha) Noelle Holiday: Speaking of Noelle, I wanted to talk about her development as a character as her whole character arc revolves around her cowardice and being able to become brave enough to stand up to people, whether that be in the Normal or Weird route, so her classpect doesn't change like the player's. This is gonna sound a bit odd but I think Noelle would be an HEIR OF RAGE. Heir's start off not having their aspect and then gaining it through means of progression of the story. Noelle is a character who is constantly oppressed by the people around her, never being able to speak her own mind. It's only at the end of Chapter 2 that Noelle is finally able to stand up for herself and challenge the ideals of Queen, which is something a Rage Player would do. Not to mention that her during the Weird Route is all about giving up her control, which is what an unrealized Rage Player would do in the first place. On top of that, her and another Rage Player, REALLY love strangling.

Erm... Burghley???: Jokes aside, Berdly is probably the easiest character in Deltarune to Classpect. He's a pompous jackass who uses his intelligence to garner validation and relevance. That man is the most LIGHTEST of LIGHT players. But what class would he be? Hmm? Oh so difficult, I imagine you saying to yourself. Easy. He's a Mage. Mages are described as someone who benefits themselves with knowledge pertaining to their aspect. And oh boy does that bird love to use his knowledge of ...knowledge to benefit himself. Not to mention that Mages also only half have their aspect and aren't able to fully acquire it in the beginning of their arc (Ex. Sollux continually "half-dying" never actually meeting his DOOM, Meulin constantly using escapism and entering a toxic relationship with Horuss to avoid accepting what her HEART actually wants), which would not only explain his lack of friends (aka relevancy and attention) in the normal route, as well as him being cast aside entirely in the weird route. Also it ties into his arc in Chapter 2 about embracing ignorance, which would technically make him go Grimdark within the Homestuck world. So yeah, Berdly is a MAGE OF LIGHT! Kris Dreemurr: Now, I know what you are all expecting me to say. "They're a Prince of Heart, bye bye have a great time". Hot take incoming: I don't think Kris is a Prince of Heart at all. Not because they don't have care about their self expression and identity, not at all. That's a very prominent part of Kris' character, but because... a Prince of Heart's whole thing is destroying Heart or destroying through Heart. Kris' actively helps people gain their motivation to do what they're destined to do, whilst also destroying the motivation of enemies to fight in the first place through non-violent methods. Hmm, so we're looking for a Classpect that harbors an overabundance of shame and isolation from society, internally angry but doesn't express it unless it REALLY annoys them, builds up the motivation of their allies whilst also destroying the motivation of others through ACTing/making them giving up on their motivation through FIGHTing, ON TOP OF KEEPING SECRETS FROM THE WATCHER AND WORKING WITH THE MAIN ANTAGONIST!!!. Man, if only there was a Classpect like that. Oh wait there is- THEY'RE A PRINCE OF RAGE! Kris is a PRINCE OF RAGE! I know. I know. Extremely odd take but look at them! I just stated all things that make a Prince of Rage and Kris fits every box as opposed to Prince of Heart, which I'm only convinced people classpect them as because they dislike us as the player controlling their body and we just so happen to be in the shape of a heart. But even then, severing connections is not a Prince of Heart thing. That's a Prince of Blood thing, and considering that Kris actively is attempting to keep their friends incredibly close to them and is attempting to reunite their entire family to be like how it was in the past, I don't think Prince of Blood fits the bill. But hey, you know what an extremely unhealthy attachment to the people they love, which they cultivate by either doing extremely life threatening things or manipulation of the people they love DOES fit the bill for? That's RIGHT! Prince of Rage! Because that is EXACTLY what Kurloz does with Meulin. IN FACT! A LOT OF PARALLELS EXIST WITH KRIS AND KURLOZ!!! ESPECIALLY WITH THE RELEASES OF CHAPTER 3 AND 4, which makes sense when you consider that Toby Fox helped with the creation of the Alpha Trolls, INCLUDING KURLOZ! This is a hill I am 110% willing to die on and I will be the most pretentious, conceited asshat about it because I KNOW THAT I'M RIGHT! AND BEFORE ANYONE SAYS IT! PRINCES DO NOT LACK THEIR ASPECT! THAT IS BARD! PRINCES SUFFER FROM AN OVERABUNDANCE OF THEIR ASPECT!!!

So anyway, thank you so much for reading. Let me know if you'd like to see another post like this with other characters, as well as asking me about other characters you want me to classpect just in general. I hope you all have an absolutely wonderful day! :o)

"In some such families, brothers practiced what is known as temporary marriages, where several brothers would marry a single wife, who would bear heirs to all of them in turn. While the Roman ideology of the univira, a woman's devotion to one husband, seems at odds with the practice of temporary marriage, the way Crassus stepped into his brother's marriage suggests that his family may have opted to allow only two sons to marry in order to secure the family's future. When his brother died, Crassus took the opportunity to move from uncle to husband, a move that may have served his own interests as well as fraternal pietas."

[The brothers of Romulus: fraternal Pietas in Roman law, literature, and society by Bannon, Cynthia Jordan]

@p-clodius-pulcher showed me this crazy quote, wherein "his family may have opted to allow only two sons to marry" made me go "so you are saying in a later era, Crassus would be a priest".

OHHHH THIS IS DELICIOUS. every discussion revolving around Crassus' marriage to his sister-in-law is so so fun. we have archaic traditions & obligations, there's the matter of keeping the dowry in the family (which in turn lends to a fun exploration of the economy at the time, wrt to crassus' father's policy making), & combined together, there's something to be said for the reasoning that the brother-sister marriage records of roman egypt may have had more to do with keeping property in the family.

but now with fraternal pietas? HELLO!! new things to think about. I'm going to unpack this with a magnifying glass.
