Hey guys,

if I find any time during the CRAZY next month_{^{Oh dear god this poetry slam is tomorrow}}, I may create a Homestuck mod for ToME, since making a module for it is so easy even an awe-inspiringly SHITTY PROGRAMMER like me can do it. No graphics planned yet beyond clean soothing ASCII, for I am blind to all things aesthetically pleasing.

I know you guy like mods and roguelikes and homestuck and Roguelike Homestuck Mods, so I feel I can ask for your help.

It is easy to give a character as many "classes" as I want, so it is possible to emulate the Mythological Roles(Classpects) without coding 144 character classes, but I would also like every Role to have a single ability no other aspect/class possesses. There are enough ways to do that, what I need is UNBOUND CREATIVITY.

So, please quote the following spoiler'd lists and fill in some stuff. Or don't, if you don't feel it. No pressure. Punny names encouraged.
Basically anything is doable. If I can do it is a different matter.
Oh, and if this mod will be a thing that really happens, I will implement squiddle players before trolls because in your face, fandom.

Yes but I figured with all those castes you made you would be a good source for suggestions

[Devling]

See, a lot of the classes/aspects are pretty vague.
We only have 1 person with most of them, so we don't know if someones abilities is due to them being them, or magical game powers.
Still, will watch with interest. Do you plan on setting up a thread?

[Liber celi]

Yes, as soon as I get an Alpha running. I already have made a dungeon full of Imps and Ogres with many a strange Prototyping, a lot of items and the character generation- just four classes and aspects for now(guess which ). The inventory system is still having issues and talents require some non-trivial coding, so I didn't want to make an own thread until I know if this is within my capabilities.

Classpect speculation on the other hand is always on-topic!

Those look really good. Thanks!

I just dreamed a homestuck flash last night.

Weird.

Wasn't really in the style of the canon flashes though. More like some of the weirder fan animations.

It  wasn't set to a song named "Ready to Die", was it?

Don't say I didn't warn you.

Why does Doom guy have a Quake logo?

He's also got a mispainted lambda from Half Life.

[Remuthra]

Will you add it to your avatar, Slayer?

[Max White]

He's also got a mispainted lambda from Half Life.

I don't see why that would be a conflict.

[Slayerhero90]

My series of avatars is exclusively Homestuck. Also all made by the same guy, incidentally.
