CHARACTER
Name: Sollux Captor
Canon: Homestuck
Timeline: Before his fight with Eridan.
If playing another character from the same canon, how will you deal with this?: N/A
Personality: Despite not being one of the most featured characters in Homestuck, Sollux shows a very tri-dimensional characterization and an interesting personality.
Living knowing you're going to die soon (and on top of that, going blind before kicking the bucket) affects a person quite deeply, especially when the voices that tell you so won't leave you alone. Meet Sollux Captor, a 6 sweep (13 year old for reference) old troll with mustard blood, self proclaimed computer genius and hacker with a peculiar fascination for duality, and a lisp.
His interests include computers, computer games, coding, apiculture (to produce honey to feed his lusus, the alternian equivalent of a guardian), and beating himself up over trivial things. Like the apparent coolkid he seems to project, he enjoys his metaphors (some of which make close to no sense, and include saucy maids) and will take every chance to present one to whoever he is speaking to.
Being based off the Gemini sign, much of Sollux's character centers around duality, be it the way he types (he replaces his "s" with "2", types double "i"s, which, in roman numerals, represents two, and makes puns with "two", for example, typing "two" instead of "to", "iintwo", instead of "into" and so on), the kind of puns he makes, and even the color of his eyes, because, you see, he was born a mutant with vision twofold.
His mutation, beyond giving him visions, also grants him psychic powers, which are the reason as to why he chooses not to use a weapon. Of course, a Rose is not without its thorn, and this mutation, albeit seemingly nice, also gives Sollux the power to listen to Voices, voices belonging to the imminently deceased who have plagued him his whole life. Being subject to these for as long as he has lived has made him a quite cranky individual, with constant bipolar mood swings (obeying his duality complex) that are often uncalled for, and a sensitive nature to boot. It also bestows upon him his red and blue eyes, remarkably different from the regular yellow ones his race shows.
As a member of the troll race, Sollux is placed in the hemospectrum, and at quite a low position at that, standing in the third lowest rung. He doesn't actually care about the system to the point of calling it "confusing" and not knowing which colors of blood are below his own.
His relationships with other characters are quite odd, as the way he directs himself at another person widely depends on who he is speaking to. When speaking to Karkat Vantas, a moody troll who is perpetually angry and flipping his shits at everything, and is also his best bro (although he would never admit it), he is usually rude and provocatory, inciting arguments so immature that in the end, they both agree to erase the chatlog from their computers. An exerpt from said chat is as follows:
CG: I KNEW YOU WERE A CHEATER LOWLIFE FUCKING SCUMBAG WITH NO SCRUPLES OR SELF ESTEEM AND WERE BASICALLY WORTHLESS ON EVERY LEVEL, BUT SOMEHOW I'M STILL DISAPPOINTED IN YOU.
TA: yeah ii am 2uch an iidiiot for not rewardiing your bubbly per2onaliity and iimpeccable people 2kiill2 wiith a leader2hiip giig.
TA: what an iincon2iiderate knuckle2ponged a22hole ii have been.
CG: I AM A HATCHED LEADER AND YOU KNOW IT.
TA: ii know your fiilthy 2eedflap ii2 flutteriing iin the profane breeze that2 2hootiing out your 2tiinkiing meal tunnel.
TA: ii do know that much.
CG: HOW DO YOU GET OUT OF YOUR COCOON IN THE MORNING KNOWING YOU'RE THE WORST THING A UNIVERSE WAS EVER RESPONSIBLE FOR?
CG: ALSO IT MUST BE HARD WITH YOUR HANDS TO PERSISTENTLY BOTHERING EVERY MUTATED SET OF GENITALS PEPPERING THAT GHASTLY HUSK YOU PAWN OFF AS A BODY.
CG: HAS A FEMALE EVER LOOKED AT YOU WITHOUT AT ONCE TURNING SKYWARD AND ERUPTING LIKE A VOMIT VOLCANO, ANSWER ME THAT.
Despite these behaviors, they both care for each other deeply, as Karkat is seen crying over his corpse when he is hit by the glub, blaming himself for not getting him in the game soon enough.
However, when speaking to Aradia Megido, a troll who he was very close to (exactly what kind of relationship they were in is undisclosed), despite growing apart from her a lot due to the consequences of a very big cycle of revenge (Not to go into much detail, another troll, Vriska, utilized her mind control powers to take over Sollux's mind, and seized the opportunity to have him kill her, as shown here), his approach is a tad nicer than with Karkat, although her vague, unemotional speech pattern (due to her post-death status) quickly irritates him to the point of cranking out terrible, rude jokes about her apparent lack of emotion and happiness (she's ok with it though), such as:
TA: thank you 2o much for thii2, iit wa2 great.
TA: that wa2 a joke, here type "ha".
AA: ha
TA: now type iit agaiin.
AA: ha
TA: there you go, you are now offiiciially the liife of the party.
TA: eheheh ii ju2t took an embarra22iing viideo of you cuttiing loo2e there, boy ii 2ure hope thii2 juiicy nugget doe2nt wiind up on the iinternet!
He shows that even after the accident, he still likes Aradia very much and is less rude (although still quite a bit) toward her than other characters.
Another example of him showing a more positive attitude toward another character is when he meets Feferi Peixes, the ex-heiress to the Alternian Ampire, which has been destroyed due to Sgrub and the vast glub caused by her own lusus. She is giddy and permanently excited, traits which seemed to catch his attention, maybe because it made him remember Aradia before she died, or maybe because a nice, cheery attitude is something that makes him feel comfortable. Once in the veil, he questions how she can put up with someone so terrible as himself and that she was too good for him , which is an example of his self deprecating nature.
While they were in the hiding away from Jack Noir in the veil, Aradiabot exploded (In short, aradiabot was a gift from another troll to the deceased Aradia, albeit with secondary intentions, that her soul inhabited and controlled. It exploded when her dream self ascended to the god tiers, thus relocating her soul.), Sollux began feeling more down and depressed than usual, especially so because Aradia didn't speak a word to him throughout the session, but hugged him and said goodbye before exploding, leaving him in tears. After this, Feferi was there to help him, and they both had a rather big feelings jam on the horn pile. It is during this feelings jam that Eridan interrupts them, asking Feferi to join him to serve under Jack Noir, which she refuses, and reaches a consensus with Sollux that they have to stop him, as he may end up leading them to Jack.
Overall, Sollux is a grouchy kid with a lisp, almost constantly in a bad mood accompanied by even worse mood swings, but still cares deeply about his friends despite his flaws. This is shown when he literally sacrifices himself, nearly destroying his own body in the process to make sure his friends would make it to safety. His attitude changes vastly depending on who he is speaking/is with, and he enjoys his puns and metaphors as much as the next person.
First Person: [ Hello Ruby City, how have you been doing without this mustard blooded troll? Because he’s been doing just fine without you. Or not considering that in his temporal and spacial existence, he hasn’t exactly left, which is why, upon waking up in the carriage, he feels astounded and confused. He recognizes it, but why is he on the train again? Had he been sent home? Questions riddle his mind as the train arrives in the city once more, and without any prodding, he leaves the steel bound transport, reaches into the pocket, and, unsurprisingly, finds his communicator. He points the familiar camera at himself, and only says one thing as he looks at the city on the horizon. ]
Groth.
Third Person: “Jethuth fucking chritht on a wheel.”
These were the words that could be heard coming from one Sollux Captor, who was casually strolling around the city shortly after his re- arrival. From his perspective, no time had passed in his actual timeline, it was just like that one time on the catacombs, but now involving the train. Odd, but he wasn’t about to complain. Heck, he’d even gotten off lucky. According to the people he’s spoken to, a couple more minutes in his timeline and he’d have been blinded and left to die. But here he was. Again. Really, it was for the best, he thought. He’s met a lot of people here that he would never have met otherwise, and there was the plus side of, you know, being able to see and all. Besides, there was another reason he’d much rather be in the city than someone else, even though it was one that he would never admit openly. “Heh.”, he whispered to himself. “At leatht there are no raging bagth of bulgeth around.” He said softly, very well aware that there indeed was a raging bag of bulges around and said bag of reproductive organs was him. He snickered a bit at the mental image before looking around one more. Despite there being no apparent passage of time for him, it really felt like something had changed to him, and fuck him sideways for not being to put his finger on it.
