✎, Caliborn ੈ♡˳

Caliborn wears a black shirt with a U on the front and a line crossing it out and green suspenders. He wears green jeans with a grey van and the other leg being amputated and robotic. Caliborn has a green skin tone and color scheme to mostly everything.

Caliborn is perhaps the most alien of all the voiced characters. He has a terrifying obsession with playing games, so much so that Calliope claims his love for them surpasses human comprehension of what love is. Additionally, he is obsessed with superstitions and Jujus, which define much of the relationship and "game" with his sister. Thirdly, he shares his sister's interest in romantic relationships, but unlike Calliope, he sees them as disgusting and pornographic.

Despite this obsession, he is apathetic towards Sburb, seeing it mostly as a means of escaping his dead home planet. He still intends to play it, but he plans to treat the game as a competition against Calliope instead of the cooperative game it is meant to be, which could make winning the session impossible.

Uu Artwork Caliborn's first attempt at drawing something. Top: Dirk, and Caliborn in some sort of green attire, with what appears to be a red bowtie and swirl mark. Bottom: Jane and Roxy possibly rendered in "giant snake form" in an attempt to seem pornographic.

A few conversations after his introduction, he takes up drawing as a hobbyHS. He considers himself an artist even though he can barely draw a circleMspa icon. Even on a larger scaleHS it's still made entirely out of lots of straight lines. This is actually a method of approximating a circle with line segments, and touches on the concept of a mathematical limit, an essential component of calculus. Later on he provides the following truly encouraging professional advice: DRAWING IS EASY. DON'T LET ANYONE EVER TELL YOU IT ISN'T. YOU WORK HARD. AND HONE YOUR CRAFT. AND IGNORE THE HATERS. UNTIL YOU ARE IN. "THE ZONE". Caliborn will eventually come to consider himself a misunderstood artist due to John beating him up and complaining about Homosuck, and states that art and telling stories is what defines him, and his wish to destroy every living thing in existence other than himself is merely a hobby.HS

Despite his cartoon villain spiel and bizarre hobbies, Caliborn can be quite clever. He enjoys deploying "shitty" twists to spoil his "opponent's" game (such as pretending to switch positions of two chess pieces but merely camouflaging them as each other), and could be quite threatening if he was not so obsessed with theater.

Caliborn seems to represent different aspects of the Homestuck fan community from Calliope, particularly his impatience with the speed at which things unfold. As many less fanatic readers do, he complains about long pesterlogs formatted strangely in unusual colors. Calliope's relationship with him mirrors the fans who keep pestering their friends to read Homestuck, even though they're not interested or don't "get" the story.

Caliborn proves to be tenacious, but this is also a result of his impatience. He tries to do everything in his power to get what he wants, even biting his own leg off to be freed from his shackles. He believes in his abilities greatly to the point of arrogance, believing that he is an amazing artist even though his drawings are horrendous, and also childishly insists that every opinion he has is completely true because it's what he believes.

He mentions to have a learning disorder, still his drawings slightly improve over time. On his DeviantArt account Caliborn states that he's never watched any movies or television, and that he likes meat. Caliborn likes candies, tooHS.

Additionally, he has a strong prejudice against women, to the point where it can only be called blatant sexism. He shows multiple times that he believes women cannot handle much due to their heightened emotional state. It is clear that Caliborn strongly believes women to be inferior to men.

It is impliedHS that he has a learning disability, which has such effects as causing him to use a hunt and peck typing method and capitalize by holding shift instead of through caps lock. He also notes that he has an easier time "thinking in colors"HS, which could indicate synesthesia.
