Mindfully Classpecting

To produce lands, i usually just pair up random aspect-associated nouns, but you know, here it is anyway. :)

The Land of Trials and Moments

This land is a strict progression, alternating between Trial, and Moment. Each Trial is associated with Hope, and tests your ability in the Aspect. Each Moment reveals more about the nature of Hope, allowing you to practice your power and prepare for the next Trial. This land is unforgiving, but results in powerful Lords of Hope.

The Land of Death and Angels

This land is stuck in an eternal battle, between eternally regenerating hordes of the skeletal undead, and legions of angels that attempt to purify the planet. While the angels will assist you, they are incredibly powerful and are not to be trifled with. Development on this land occurs as you find fragments of old lore in the lost cities that were destroyed by this eternal war. Your Denizen can help the angels win, if you wish to achieve this end.

The Land of Will and Deceit

This land is ruled by a despotic undead Count, who has trapped the souls of the consorts on the Land, never to leave. As the souls are endlessly reincarnated, the consorts grow more and more worn down and empty. Inspire them, and lead a revolt against this evildoer.

Lord of Mind

The Lord of Mind is quick and confident - they appear always to have the correct course of action thought out without a moment’s consultation, as they may sift through years of memories, facts, figures, and can construct an entire worldview from the slightest tells and clues.

A list of powers:

Possess - The Lord can hop their consciousness into another host provided they have line-of-sight. If they leave that new host, the body will usually be braindead, as SBURB artificially reinforces the brain of the Lord’s original body. If the Lord dies when possessing a body, then god-tier resurrection brings the Lord back in their original body. (this means that the host body is transformed into the Lord’s)

If the Lord fears a Just or Heroic death, then a slightly different version of this power can be used: on death, the Lord’s consciousness will be transferred into the nearest living being, as a kind of ‘subroutine’ with no ability to control the new host, that slowly grows in influence until the Lord can fully possess their host.

Psychic Overdrive - The Lord is the most powerful psychic that can possibly exist, with the ability to control, read, wipe, and reformat the mind of nearly any being.

Lightning Strike - The Lord can call down many electrical strikes from the sky that will utterly obliterate most targets.

Ascendance -  The Lord may become a ghostly figure of pure Mind energy, their body melting away into nothingness. The form is taxing to maintain, but grants resistance to being damaged and a mental clarity due to being a purely neutral state of mind, unclouded by any restrictions chemicals in the mind may produce. In this form, the Lord may pass through any object not possessing the ability to think or otherwise process information complexly. Objects possessing this ability will resist being passed through and will be damaged by attempts.

Muse of Mind

The Muse of Mind is a calm, impassive tower - unmoving in the face of insurmountable odds, and it rubs off on their allies, constructing unfathomable machinations to crush their enemies when it seems they have no plan at all. The Muse of Mind holds all the cards, while allowing the opponent to think the converse.

A list of powers:

Supercomputer - The Muse has a passive deductive capability that allows for incredibly quick problem solving and data processing, allowing them to almost instantly make connections and insights that would usually take far longer to reason out.

Megavolt Discharge - As an attack of incredible power, the Muse can produce a semi-directed discharge of electricity on the order of several million volts, burning nearby targets and frying electrical equipment.

Mass Telepathy - The Muse may impart knowledge or messages into the minds of creatures that they either: can see, are within 1 AU of, or know personally.

Interrupt - The Muse may disrupt the logical reasoning of those around, preventing complex reasoning and allowing the Muse to convince people of things they would not usually believe.

Multifariousity - The Muse has an innate skill for constructing plans, particularly those that rely on the foreknowledge of people’s courses of action, and will often be able to outmanoeuvre even the best strategists if there is too much of a human component in the unfurling of the future.

Purifying Psychology - Exposure to the Muse of Mind will naturally clear the minds of others of panic, mental illness, fear, doubt, and overconfidence. In short, those around the Muse become specimens of perfect mental health. The Muse can accelerate this process via direct exposure through a mind-meld, but this risks damaging the fragile minds of non-Mind players.

The Page of Blood

One who protects, equips, and exploits [with] Binding, Connection, and Alliances

Powers:

Wave of Blood - The Page lets loose the full force of Blood through their body. This could manifest in a multitude of ways, be it actual blood appearing from their body, or merely something based on interpersonal connections, but, put simply, the Page decides exactly how Blood acts around them, and reality cannot argue, and you certainly cannot argue.

Barrier - The Page manifests incredibly strong stringy connections that can serve to bind, block, or even act as a weapon. (think those glowy strings Doctor Strange used) These can even be manifested at a distance, with effort.

Smooth Flow - The Page inspires connections that help to serve them in the pursuit of their goals, often able to get entities to assist them with ease. (you can turn it off, dw about being creepy)

Uprising - If leading a group, the group gains additional cohesion and drive, while every member has improved physical resilience and, in keeping with the Blood theme, better circulation.

Introversion is at odds with Blood only if it is strong enough to make leadership actively uncomfortable - if it does, concentrate on building up your other powers.

Fear of confrontation will quickly become relevant within SBURB, unless it’s specifically the emotional kind, which shouldn’t be so bad if you’re going in with good friends. who knows.

Being a fan of clowns is an unfortunate character defect, but we’ll look past it. ;)

The Mage of Time

One who Understands [with] Time, Destiny, and Progress

Well, now that Homestuck’s back, time to restart classpecting! (yeah right cosmo you’ll keep this up)

Powers:

Highlight (passive) - Events that are critical to the Alpha Timeline will be revealed to the Mage, allowing for an easier time preventing doomed timelines.

Temporal Tracking - The Mage can use an object as a focus for their powers, gaining knowledge of the object’s past and future, and the immediate area around it along its timeline.

Infuse - The Mage can infuse objects with Time energy, allowing them to function in a enhanced manner. This includes making guns into hitscan weapons, making swords swing faster, and making amulets and trinkets manipulate Time to the wearer’s benefit.

Recall Bootstrap - The Mage can utilise the backwards looping of thought processes to make hours worth of tactical decisions in a fraction of a second. This is taxing, however, and will be difficult to keep up upon first Ascending.

Snapshot - When in a location, the Mage can take a ‘snapshot’ of the location as it was up to one week in the past, walk through that space, frozen in time, and analyse what was happening. The amount of time to  go back must be carefully determined, though. (no timeline scrubbing)

good luck with your time shenanigans.

I saw some rather interesting meta on the HS reddit - that the reason he is such fucking prick is that, on the whole, his Ultimate Self (which claims to have become) comprises a whole shitton of Shitty Dirks, that didn’t have the specific sequence of events that lead to the decidedly good, selfless Dirk that was present in the Homestuck endgame sequence.

I’m completely unfamiliar with BlazBlue, but any classpect driven game is something I’d absolutely play, if only to see how the cpect affected abilities and the like.

we have, actually! this link should work

Here!
