how could a bard of mind work? I have an oc who's one and I wanna make sure I get his godtier abilities right :33
Well, first we should look at the components of the Classpect!
A Bard is one who destroys through their Aspect, and we can see this in Gamzee, the Bard of Rage, killing Equius and Nepeta with his rage against lowerbloods. Cronus Ampora is also a Bard, but since he doesnt do anything other than be sexist and ableist, we cant use him for clues.
Mind is the Aspect of consequence and decision. Terezi, as the Seer, was able to see and know what consequences would come about, as well as how to circumvent them. Again, there is a Pre-Scratch troll with the Mind Aspect, but she also doesnt do anything, so we cant look at anyone else.
Putting these things together, we can surmise that the Bard of Mind would destroy with consequence, like a living beam of karma, and also by decision. Maybe they have weak willed teammates?
As always, this isnt a wholly bad Classpect, as they could totally use this on enemies, such as making the Black King and Queen pay for their actions.

Nothing provoked this, I just wanted to say:
The Maid is the Active counter to the Heir.
The Sylph is the Passive counter to the Witch.
Unless more information arises, that is the basis im working on.

hihihi !! i have this girl prince of blood (technically fan aspect is prisoner of love, but that's a whole different story)
how would she work through her arc ?
if it also helps, shes a mutant fuschia :D
Well, itd make sense for a Mutant Fuschia to be the Prince of Blood! Shes basically been doing that her whole life!
A Prince of Blood is one who destroys community and bonds, so shell probably be a very frustrating individual to work with. Since shes a Prince, there is probably a good amount of it around in the session, and shes the one thats gotta break it down!
This isnt bad, it just means that she has to focus on what types of her Aspect she wants to destroy. She could make all the imps rebel against the royals, or she could make the Black King and Queen divorce, we dont know!
As for the Mutant part, yikes, man. In a place like Alternia shes lucky to be alive, and if its Beforus shes gonna be treated as a pet.

Itโs nice to see a classpect analyst in this day in age! I never see anyone do Lords. Whatโs your take on a Lord of Void?
I have breifly mentioned the Lord of Void before, but as I stated before, itd be impossible, as the Lord and Muse Classes are only used in two-player sessions, but if you were somehow able to become one, youd be very mysterious!
A Lord has complete control over their Aspect- we can see this with Lord English, who is always already there, and has an entire gang of time travellers.
Void is the Aspect of secrecy and nothingness, and is often hard to understand.
A Lord of Void, therefor, can control the Void, and is essentially the personification of the secrecy of it.
With a Lord of Void, no secrets would ever be able to go forth, and everything would be nothing.

what would a seer of breath's abilities look like? i think i get what the character's themes would be, but what would be their power?
A Seer of Breath knows and sees the freedom and willy-nilly nature that Breath provides.
As a Passive Classpect, they would act as a sort of advisor, being there to encourage people to attain these freedoms, while simultaneously learing more and more about their Aspect.
You could view them as a sort of freeing relif, almost, there to help their teammates gain independence.

Hey, i was wondering how a Maid of Light would work maybe? Thanks :DDD
A Maid of Light is one who invites, encourages, and serves Light, which is fortune, knowlege, and understanding.
A Maid of Light would most likely end up in a session where their Aspect is a mess- like how Jane, the Maid of Life, ended up in a lifeless session, and Aradia, the Maid of Time, ended up in a session with Doomed Timelines out the wazoo.
Another part to consider is that Maids tend to embody their Aspect in some way shape or form. Jane was the only Pre-scratch guardian to naturally have a kid and raise it, while Aradia was D.O.A for her session.
All in all, a Maid of Light would be in a Light-less session, and somehow have traits from thier Aspect, making them "Made of Light" (hahaha)

Hey again! Since you already analized my two sessions
1:
Bard of hope
Seer of void
Thief of heart
Witch of light
Heir of space
2:
Muse of void
Witch of time
Maid of blood
Now comes the interesting part! At some point in the story, their sessions merge! (Giving session 2 their space player and session 1 a time player) How would that go?
Well, given the merging happening, I can see it ending up really well! The Witch of Time will be able to manipulate Time to help with the Heir of Spaces Frog Hunting, and the Maid of Blood will be able to encourage and invite bonds between the players, unsuring no issues between them!
The Muse and Seer of Void would probably end up in a loop where the Muse inspires Void, the Seer understands it, and the Muse ends up with even more void then they had to begin with!
The Witch of Heart will still be the MVP, but the double-Void players might trip them up, so I would suggest to either split up the Void players, or make sure that the Bard is close buy, so that their Hope could destroy anything thats too voidy for the sessions taste!
Overall, very good, I could see some hiccups coming in before the merge, but on average an 8/10!

thoughts on a mage of space? im wanting to see how this fanfic session im doing for a tv show is going and one of the main characters i have classpected as mage of space
A Mage of Space knows how Space works, and they deal with it on the regular. They could be someone who is very isolated, or maybe someone who has a lot of stuff around them, like a mansion or mountain.
I would imagine that they would use their knowlege to help the session move forward, and that they would be very efficient in Frog Breeding.

Ykw, I'll bite. How do you think a Maid of Heart, a Knight of Time, and a Witch of Doom would work together in a session (in your opinion)?
Well, youd need a Space player for sure, but for the sake of analysis, we can pretend that theyre just late to the party.
A Witch of Doom would be useful in that they would manipulate the Doom in the session, and could potentially use this to insta-kill any and all enemies that they come across, while the Maid of Heart could use identity or soul to their advantage. To be fully honest, its a bit hard to figure out what sort of powers specific Classpects get, so if your Maid somehow makes the White King think that hes a Sprite, than Id just be jotting notes down, and trying to figure that out, haha!
A Knight of Time means that youre gonna be stuck in a session that is either very short, or very doom-able. with the Witch of Doom being there, ill assume its the latter. Your time player is gonna be very overworked!
Overall, get a Space Player, and these guysll totally be able to defeat the Black King and Queen!

im a mage of hope and my boyfriend is a knight of time
whats your read on that dynamic? im curious if theyre accurate to us and i want to cross reference with an outside perspective lol
Well, obviously there will be many variables! However, if youre looking for the most sweeping claims based on what we know, I can give you this;
A Mage of Hope will experience a lot of Hope throughout their life, and know it intimatley, wether that be through personal Hope, or the Hope of others, they know it and have a keen understanding of what makes it tick.
They might have visions like a Seer, but their astute observations will usually prove to be more than enough, and as the Active counter, they will be proactive in ensuring that they know all that they can.
You can expect them to be on the optimistic side, and theyll probably act as a support to others, letting their knowlege help lift the spririts of the others.
For an in-depth look of the Knight of Time, Ive done an analysis of Dave Strider here!
As for the dynamic between the two, you can assume that the Mage will help the Knight, giving them the push to continue protecting the Alpha Timeline, while the Knight would support the Mage as their personal bodyguard, almost.
This is a very two-way dynamic, and I can see them working together very well as a duo!
I hope that this was accurate!

Hello! Do you have any thoughts on an heir of space and/or a bard of time?
An Heir of Space would inherit the Space around them, while the Bard of Time destroys through Time, which leave some interesting ideas!
The Heir would probably be literally inheriting Space, like an uncles death leaving an empty mansion, and thereby having the Space-mandated isolation, or maybe their Land is very, very, empty.
The Bard would use Time to destroy people, and my mind immediatley goes to using Time to age people to death, or rewinding them to before they were born, and both are very, very, cool.

how would a session with a prospit bard of void, derse heir of hope, derse maid of blood, derse prince of space, prospit seer of doom, and prospit witch of time? if you cant do that what would the relationship between a bard of void and a witch of heart as partners? :-)
Well that Prince of Space is certanly being weird right off the bat! The Space player is always a Prospit dreamer, so the fact that they arent is probably a bad sign. And when you add in the fact that the Derse Witch of Time is now on Prospite, somethings fishy!
Looking at the others though, the Seer of Doom would be helpful, as they could tell others what options cause tragedy, and which are clear. The Bard of Void is probably very secretive, and could act like a batman type, lying in the shadows and striking when everyones forgotten them.
Excluding the weird Moon switch, a solid session! 7/10

bard of breath, seer of void, mage of space, prince of blood, and witch of rage for Side A
Maid of heart, knight of void, sylph of time, theif of mind, and heir of life for Side B When Mage of space enters thats when both sessions would combine+fight for the universe thats created. who do you think would win?
Well, thats hard to say! It is sometimes easy to see who has an advantage, but there are always variables, such as God Tier, and how close they are with the people theyre fighting with! Pre vs Post scratch trolls is an easy win for the Post, but Pre vs Post scratch humans would probably go to the Pre, because of the cohesiveness of each team.
However, since side A has a Prince of Blood and Witch of Rage, they could steal the win by simply making Side B hate eachother so much that they cannot fight.

uhm maid of mind perhaps? pretty please? *blink* *blink blink* *like those old cartoons when someones all up and trying to look innocent and whatever to get what they want* *aka puppy dog eyes staring at the sun edition* *idk where i was going with this* *i should like probably stop now but like* *the metaphors the analogies they beckon me* anyways please and thank you and manners and stuff :]
Well, since you blinked so much!
A Maid of Mind would be one to invite or serve the Aspect of Mind, which is all about decision and consequence. You also have to remember that they will be very in tune with their Aspect, practically "made of" it!
If I were to say what their session would be like, I'd say that they would have many rash and impulsive teammates, and that their job would be to strategise and help others realise the consequences of their actions.

Knight of Rage?
A Knight of Rage is one who protects the Rage that is lacking in the session.
While this may sound like a classic instigator type, therein lies the opportunity to discuss a little talked about aspect (hehe) of Rage: it is the opposite of Hope, in that its all about truth.
We can see these two parts of Rage in the two Rage heroes in Homestuck; Gamzee destroyed the lowerbloods with his rage, and Kurloz destroyed the truth via mind controlling Meulin.
We can, therefore, have two different interpertations: either someone who protects the animosity of the session, or someone who protects the truth of the session.
For the first, I'd guess that everyone else is sort of like the Alpha Trolls, in that their stagnation is causing them to get nowhere, and the Knight will have to protect their Rage and give them a fighting spirit.
For the second, a Void player may be hiding things from view, or a Hope player is convincing the team of something, and the Knight will have to protect the truth that is being taken away.

could i get your thoughts about seer of space and lord of void?
A Seer of Space is very straightforward! They study the Space around it, and will have visions of what Space to use! Very easy to understand, but still very useful!
A Lord of Void, on the other hand, is literally impossible. A Lord only shows in two player sessions, and therefore there can only be a Lord of Space or Lord of Time.
If there were to be one, they would have complete control over nothingness amd mystery, which would make them every detectives bane, and they could perhaps use the nothingness to hide everything, like a big cloud of unknown.

ppssstt what would you say is the classpect that would requite the LEAST ammount of effort
None! Each and every Classpect is there for a reason, and each have a role to play!
If you get yourself killed off before the sessions over, or if you leech off another player, then youd be able to do things without effort no problem, but that would be a dick move
If you really, really need an easy Classpect, a Seer of Time would be my pick, as its the most straightforward one. You see visions of Time, and you know what to do with them!
