I actually could down the road. And it might be worth posting your characters sheets anyway. Just, you know, in case.

Righty-do, here's da sheet!

If necessary or preferable, I could change my application to be a female character, I don't really mind and it wouldn't take too much changing.

Alright, I'm-

WHY DOES EVERYTHING AMAZING HAPPEN WHEN I'M NOT LOOKING

Freeform, I demand you un-firstcomefirstserved-ify this. NAOW.

Or at least include trolls.

Okay okay fine. It is official best characters get in again (except for the VIP slots). I was clearly just impatient.

Well, since the other Homestuck RPG I created and eventually handed over to someone else crashed and burned, why not?

Hopefully that's sufficient. If the backstory isn't long enough, I'd be happy to give it some more work.

Wait, dangit, do I have to create a GMPC like in the other one?

I don't think I do, at least in this system.

Okay, I'll have my character and his well thought out backstory later tonight.

I don't think I do, at least in this system.

I don't think it's necessary. I just did it because.

Ok. Free for all, no holds barred, old school character show-off...

There is still a free spot.
I am on the other side of the world, but I don't need much sleep. I am not the fastest typer ever, fail at grammar sometimes and I tend to use vocabular I gathered from unreliable sources... damn, this starts sounding more like a typing quirk then an application. I knew it was a mistake.
OK, if any of the above bothers you, feel free to kick me from the team. Otherwise...

Here comes a sprite:
Spoiler (click to show/hide)
This is Achim, after not leaving the house for a week or two. Given the total surveillance by SBURB, he might decide to clean up himself a little.
His Sylladex is based on a very slow sorting algorithm. It takes hours until items are where he thinks they should be, and there is a delay of multiple seconds when he decaptchalogues something.
His Strife Specibus is allocated as flamethrowerkind. He uses a bunsen burner or a can of hair spray with a lighter duct-taped to it.
His mother is at work most of the time, but the only way to keep Bootjack at bay is a torrent of cleansing flames.

If necessary, I can change just about everything.

RE: Sprites and other art stuff, I'll be doing them for everyone once the characters are chosen. So don't worry about those.

Good thing I already had a char all written up. :P

Name: Reva Durand
Shipping compatibility: Any. She isn't looking for it (mostly because she's not really sure what exactly she's looking for), but if she happens to somehow just fall into a quadrant with someone, go her!
Physical appearance: Tall and lanky, with dirty blonde hair framing her face in boyishly-cut bangs that hang over her thick-lensed, square-framed glasses, through which peer narrow, cinereous eyes that often appear narrower due to how often she squints.
Background information: She lives in an isolated mountain area, forcibly ensconced there by her wealthy and overprotective mother (a roboticist and prime stockholder in several large companies) after she divorced her father (???). Her mother used to visit her every month of so (tense, nervous affairs that Reva was too lonely not to look forward to, yet felt all too glad to see it end), but the visits dropped off after she married her stepfather (a well-known, respected NASA researcher). Her mother eventually died in mysterious circumstances involving three cats, a dog, and a hologram machine. Her stepfather visited for a few years, but he's lately become too busy to devote much more than a few minutes at a time to her over the internet. Reva spends most of her days tinkering with machinery, reading (though she's already read most of her prodigious collection), and surfing the web, chatting with various friends she's made on the internet and buying random knickknacks, most of which she immediately tosses into the Other Room as soon as it arrives.
Parent/sibling/other guardian name(s): Her stepfather, Julius, Jules, or "Jul".
Hobbies: Collecting medieval weaponry, collecting glass figurines, doing !!Science!!, reading science fiction novels
(TEST) Your favorite aspect of Homestuck: ... I'm... supposed to have a favorite? ._.

Oh man, you want me to write more? But that conflicts with my immense laziness...
So yeah... More backstory.
I'll edit my first post to be a bit more informative in a bit.
