Troll Lorebook

1. #1Night and Dayselective

   Keys: night, day

   Due to the powerful sun roasting the surface of Alternia, the diurnal cycle of Trolls is inverted, and as such they sleep during the day when the sun is out and stay awake during the night, when they can actually leave their hives and caves without being burned to death.

   Their society is structured around this cycle, with only the jadebloods and adults able to survive the sun's effects.

2. #2Trollsselective

   Keys: troll, trolls

   Trolls are a prominent race, originating on the planet Alternia.

   All trolls have grey skin and horns colored in bands of red-orange to yellow-orange vaguely resembling candy corn. The sclera of most trolls' eyes are the same yellow-orange color as their horn tips; however some trolls with mutations can have eyes in different colors, and which can flash and change color altogether under certain circumstances. A troll's orange eyes can become more reddened when "bloodshot" or turn completely red when damaged, for example by the sun.

   All trolls are given a zodiac sign, and they have an extended zodiac with a lot more signs. The signs specify what aspect and moon alignment they have, though this isn't known to anyone and only matters when it comes to SGRUB.

   All trolls have two names, and each of their names is six letters long. Upon reaching adulthood or some sort of prominence, they tend to gain a title that describes them, such as the Summoner or the Orphaner.

   Many other parts of troll anatomy are black, including their hair and lips. Trolls' bodies are saturated with an ingredient that colors much of their internal biology, including their blood and their tears, and the position of their blood on a spectrum of colors affects various other aspects of their biology however, a troll's blood color is rarely visible externally, and even some inner organs such as their tongues appear as a bloodless gray.

   Trolls are generally stronger and more resistant to damage than the average human. Trolls also tend to be more aggressive.

3. #3Alterniaselective

   Keys: Alternian, trollplanet, alternia

   Alternia is the home planet of the trolls, It has two satellites; a green moon and a pink moon, the latter of which seems to be accompanied by a much smaller pink satellite of its own. The terrain of Alternia's surface ranges from sandy deserts and rocky plateaus to grassy plains and immense forests. Troll society is divided into castes based on the colour of their blood, an institution known as the Hemospectrum. While on Alternia, the children who survive their initial trials as wigglers are given an animal caretaker known as a Lusus and servitor robots with which to construct a Hive, or house.

   The essential services on Alternia are automated; drones and automatic systems see to the basic needs of the inhabitants and ensure the infrastructure of the cities and outlying areas remains in acceptable condition. Almost all trolls, even social outcasts and equivalents of serfs, live in comfortable conditions, in their own houses, and with a large degree of independence. This implies that the Alternian economy is to a degree post-scarcity.

   It is the job of the Troll children, therefore, to learn. As they grow, Trolls learn- through a standardized curriculum administered by an automated program, in a process called schoolfeeding, as well as through personal experiences- their status in the Caste system, their place in society, the details of their future career, and what it means to be a good Troll. Relatively few survive the process. Between the totalitarian and often cruel leadership of the aristocracy, the harsh and unforgiving militancy of Troll culture, and the inborn capacity for violence among Trolls themselves, many Troll children are killed - often by each other or at the hands of Imperial Drones - well before they reach maturity.

   Alternia is an incredibly dangerous planet, host to an incredibly dangerous fauna and flora. Alternia sometimes has roaming hordes of undead trolls, though mostly in the wastes, as they are kept away from the hive stems by the Drones.

   Due to their insane society, trolls tend to be callous to suffering, and most are cannibals.

4. #4Soporselective

   Keys: Slime, sopor slime

   Sopor slime is a relaxing ooze that helps assuage the terrible visions of blood and carnage that plague the dark subconscious of the troll species, found within a troll's recuperacoon. Sopor slime also does funny things to a troll's head when eaten. Gamzee Makara, who lacked the guidance of a lusus to instruct him not to do so, bakes pies with a sopor slime filling.

   When eaten it is similar to the use or consumption of LSD, as it can lead to hallucinations. When eaten regularly, it can cause brain damage. It is a lime green color and glows slightly. It taste like limes and is sweet to the taste.

5. #5recuperacoonselective

   Keys: recuperacoon

   The troll equivalent of a bed, it is a vessel full of nourishing sopor slime. Recuperacoons are usually shaped like grubs.

6. #6hiveselective

   Keys: hive

   The troll word for a house or a home.

7. #7blood casteselective

   Keys: hemospectrum, blood caste, blood castes

   The hemospectrum is the series of twelve blood colors possessed by trolls, forming the basis of the Alternian caste system. Lusii share these blood colors, and often or always have the same blood color as their charge. The blood colors from lowest to highest are; Rust, Bronze, Gold, Lime, Olive, Jade, Teal, Blue, Indigo, Purple, Violet, Fuchsia.

   Trolls have 12 different ranges of blood colour. Different bloods are usually suited for different roles in society, but also greatly affect their abilities. Natures and physical aspects are also affected, most noticeably in sea dwellers. Lowbloods are more likely to be psychic and have shorter life spans. Highbloods are physically more strong, and have longer life spans.

8. #8Lususselective

   Keys: Lusus naturae, Lusii, Lusus

   Lusus naturae are beasts which take the role and title of custodian, acting as a troll's guardian in place of the adults sent to fight throughout the galaxy in the name of Alternia's glory. They are mostly standard human fauna, with pure white fur, eyes and skin. They tend to pick trolls with the same blood colour as them. While most are quite dumb, it is likely that they are genetically edited to have specific instincts needed to raise trolls to fit with Alternian society. They cannot talk, and are largely not sapient.

9. #9lowbloodsselective

   Keys: lowbloods

   The term lowblood is used to refer to the castes on the lower end of the spectrum, such as rust, but also to refer to blue bloods by trolls of a higher caste. Similarly the word 'peasant' is frequently used to refer to trolls of lower castes.

10. #10purplebloodselective

    Keys: purpleblooded, purple blood, Purple caste

    Purple bloods are referred to both as highbloods and as subjugglators. The role the Highbloods serve is both religious and political, acting as the leaders of the land dwelling castes. land dwelling castes are; Rust, Bronze, Gold, Lime, Olive, Jade, Teal, Blue, Indigo, Purple. The wearing of juggalo-like clown paint and practice of a strange clown-based religion are presumably connected with these roles. The purple caste of Alternia practices a religion heavily revolving around clowns and circus imagery highly akin to the Insane Clown Posse and its juggalo fanbase on Earth. At least some practitioners of this religion are called subjugglators. The exact minutiae of the religion are unknown, but several core themes can be gleaned. The cult foretells of a BAND OF ROWDY AND CAPRICIOUS MINSTRELS which will rise one day on a MYTHICAL PARADISE PLANET that does not exist yet, and pray to figures called the Mirthful Messiahs. Purplebloods are the only blood caste (other than fuchsia) that has managed to develop its own specific and incredibly recognizable culture. Most purples express pride in their blood color by imitating the style of an important purpleblooded troll, the Grand High Blood. Some of those trolls also imitate the Grand High Blood's personal ideologies, which primarily revolve around the idea that the only way to understand the madness of the universe is to be mad. They are generally seen as being absolutely batshit.

    Most purple bloods have long, curved horns, often resembling those of a goat or other ungulate. Purple caste height can range from being the tallest of all the caste or the shortest. All things clowny in alternia are normally associated with their religion and the Mirthful Messiahs.

11. #11Grand Highbloodselective

    Keys: Grand Highblood, GHB

    The Grand Highblood was the ancestor of Gamzee Makara. A high-ranking Highblood, the Grand Highblood seems to have a leadership position among the subjugglators. The Grand Highblood is a brutish figure who loved to paint his walls in the blood of his victims, most notably a rainbow of blood castes. He is a ruthless and sadistic troll, and Gamzee gets most of his traits from the Grand Highblood. The Grand Highblood is an enormous troll with huge, messy hair. He is obsessed with clowns and paints his face to look like one although his face paint seems to be more designed like a skull. The Grand Highblood's horns are long and in a curvy shape.

12. #12Highbloodselective

    Keys: Highblood

    The term highblood is used mostly to refer to members of the indigo, purple, Violet and Fuchsia caste, and used as a proper noun refers to the leaders of the land dwelling castes. The carrier of the Grand Highblood title presumably holds a high position among the Highbloods. purple Highbloods would seem to be synonymous with with subjugglators, who use their psychic chucklevoodoos to quell rebellion among their governed. The sea dwelling castes; Violet and Fuchsia make up Alternia's royalty and are a caste which rules over the entire species. Despite this and their position above the land dwelling highbloods on the hemospectrum, sea dwellers and land dwelling highbloods have a rivalry codified in tradition.

13. #13subjugglatorsselective

    Keys: subjugglators

    A religious and term that applies to the believes in the Mirthful Messiahs, and to the purplebloods tasked by the Empire to control the population and prevent any rebellions. A portmanteau of subjugator and juggalo. Most purplebloods are subjuggulators.

14. #14subjugglationselective

    Keys: subjugglation

    A form of subjugation performed by the subjugglators.

15. #15chucklevoodooselective

    Keys: chucklevoodoos, chucklevoodoo

    The chucklevoodoos are a common ability among urplebloods that allow them to psychically amplify fear, such as by manifesting puppets inside the dreams of targets. Strong users can use chucklevoodoo to mind control others.

16. #16Respiteblockselective

    Keys: Respiteblock

    A Respiteblock is the Alternian functional equivalent to a bedroom.

17. #17Mirthful Messiahsselective

    Keys: Messiahs, Mirthful Messiahs

    The Mirthful Messiahs are figures featured in the religion of the subjuggulators and Alternia's purple caste. They were recognized in prayers , and foretold to BRING THE HOLY RUCKUS to a Dark Carnival in a fuckin' paradise to come. Like the Dark Carnival and Paradise Planet they are associated with, the realness attribute of these Messiahs is questionable. The Mirthful Messiahs are in fact a reference to the two members of the Insane Clown Posse, though not a single troll knows that, or even what the Insane Clown Posse is.

18. #18Matespritshipselective

    Keys: Matesprit, Matespritship

    Matespritship is one of the four quadrants recognised in troll romance. Matespritship is represented by the heart symbol and a flushed red color; as such it is known as the flushed quadrant. As red romance, matespritship is rooted in strongly positive emotions. The specific emotions behind matespritship are sometimes called MATING FONDESS, which may be most readily recognised by a human as feelings of 'love'. Matespiritship is different to human love due to the lack of a supportive relationship, as that falls more to moirallegience.

19. #19Quadrantsselective

    Keys: Quadrant., Quadrants

    Quadrants are the four different types of romance recognized by trolls. The quadrants primarily exist to facilitate the complicated reproduction of trolls, and to quell social woes. The four Quadrants are, Matespritship, Moirallegience, Kismesissitude, Auspisticism.

20. #20moirailselective

    Keys: Moirallegience, Moirails, moirail, moirallegence

    Moirallegience is represented by the diamond symbol and a pale red color; as such it is known as the pale quadrant. Moirails might also be informally referred to as a palemates by outsiders to the troll race. Though moirallegience may be compared to the concept of a soul mate, it has a more specific social purpose. described as a semi-platonic relationship between two trolls. Moirallegience serves a social role of preventing particularly strong or violent trolls from going on killing-sprees.

21. #21kismesisselective

    Keys: Kismesissitude, kismesis

    Kismesissitude involves both mutual hate and mutual sexual attraction between two individuals. Kismeses do NOT "hate each other but love each other on the inside"; it's TRUE hate, felt equally by both parties. This is called a caliginous relationship. Though fueled by rivalry, defeating or killing your kismesis is discouraged since that would obviously end the relationship. Kismeses must be equally matched for the rivalry to be fulfilling; if one consistently bests the other neither will feel the satisfaction of competition. Sexual attraction is a part of this as well; kismeses may engage in hatesex.

    Kismesissitude can be either healthy or abusive. A caliginous relationship must involve mutual respect, admiring each other's strengths even while hating one another. If the relationship makes one or both parties feel inferior, it's unhealthy. Kismesissitude should encourage each individual to improve themselves so that they may surpass one another; if both parties do this, both will continue to grow trying to match one another.

    This relationship is usually toxic, as it is hard to control the platonic hatred that overrides the 'sexual' hatred that this quadrant demands.

22. #22Auspisticismselective

    Keys: Auspistice, Auspisticism

    Auspisticism is one of the four quadrants recognised in troll romance. It is a form of black romance, like kismesissitude, and is a conciliatory quadrant like moirallegience; uniquely among the quadrants, it involves three parties rather than just two. Auspisticism is represented by the club symbol and an ashen gray color; as such it is known as the ashen quadrant. An auspistice is a "facilitator" or go-between of some sort between two others, mediating interactions between them and keeping their relationship functional. These are usually enemies (or something similar), also referred to as kismesis.

23. #23Dark Carnivalselective

    Keys: Dark Carnival

    The Dark Carnival is a mysterious location spoken of both by the Insane Clown Posse and the juggalo-like religion practiced by members of Alternia's purple caste. The Dark Carnival is a purgatory-like realm inhabited by various spirits who judge the souls of the dead before sending them to either heaven or hell. Gamzee Makara describes the Carnivals as a place of magic, miracles and peace, but also hints that murder is in some way part of its nature. At this carnival the believers would be all mellowing in tents, bumpin sounds, tossing back the faygo and soaking the miracles up our faith sponges, while the special stardust rained down at our elixir sticky faces, like a bunch a fuckin' fairy powder from religion space. The Dark Carnival is an objectively real place, and it sometimes directly accepts people as they die, provided they were worthy enough. Self-sacrifice seems to be a criteria for it.

24. #24elixir, rude elixir, wicked elixir FAYGO IT'S FAYGO GOD DAMNselective

    Keys: rude elixir, elixir, wicked elixir

    Faygo. the drink is a noted as a favorite of all purplebloods, who consume it as part as often as possible, either recreationally or as part of their rituals. The consumption of it is referred to as "kicking the wicked elixir" or "rude elixir".

25. #25Violet bloodselective

    Keys: Violet caste, Violet blood, Violetblooded

    The violet blood caste is one of the twelve troll blood castes. The penultimate rung on the hemospectrum, the violet caste is higher than purple and succeeded only by fuchsia. Violetbloods are one of the two blood colors that develop gills and become amphibious. Since fuchsias are few and far between, violets are essentially the highest blood caste in any way that is applicable on a daily level. Surprisingly enough, they do not typically spend a lot of their time underwater. They are generally regarded as tyrants. They tend to be quite eccentric, and some are vain.

26. #26Fuchsia bloodselective

    Keys: Fuchsiablooded, Fuchsia caste, Fuchsia blood

    The fuchsia blood caste is the highest caste on the troll hemospectrum. Fuchsia bloods have an unparalleled lifespan of hundreds of thousands of years, or perhaps millions. Usually, only two Fuchsiabloods live in the Empire at the same time, the Empress and Heiress. This is only restricted by any potential heir's ability to survive the Empress' assassination attempts. Fuchsiabloods are one of the two blood colors that develop gills and become amphibious. The population of fuchsia trolls is closely maintained by the Empress. While males are generally disregarded, the Empress will kill any female upon discovery to prevent them from attempting to overthrow her. In fact, fuchsia trolls are inclined to kill each other on sight. This urge is strongest between two females. The lifespan of a fuchsiablooded troll may extend to several thousand years. Most trolls will only ever acknowledge the existence of one fuchsia in their entire lives. There aren't enough around to "generally" regard them as anything.

27. #27imperial droneselective

    Keys: imperial drones, Drones, imperial drone, Drone

    Drones are enforcers employed by various regimes throughout the history of Alternia. Culling drones, are at least partially involved in Alternia's process of culling or exterminating the unfit, infirm and renegades. Imperial Drones are usually very angular and vaguely humanoid shaped, and they are around three meters tall.

28. #28Mother grubselective

    Keys: Mother grub

    The mother grub is the lusus responsible for the brooding of Alternia's troll race. The mother grub's life-giving role seems to give it something of a sacred quality, with its name taking the place of God in some Alternian phrases such as 'Mother Grub fearing' The Mother Grub is quite large, around the size of an elephant, and spends most of its time laying eggs, if fertilized.

29. #29palmhuskselective

    Keys: palmhusk

    Smart phone like object of Alternia.

30. #30it is time to explain TROLL SEXselective

    Keys: concupiscence, bucket, concupiscient, sex, filial pail, genetic slurry

    Trolls are a bisexual species, that can form breeding pairs with any of the two sexes. Due to how their procreation works, involving the Mother Grub as the part that lays the eggs, trolls tend to use buckets to collect their genetic material, which is shipped on a yearly basis to the nearest cavern via Drone. As such, buckets are almost always used as a tool during sex, to catch the mixed genetic slurry.

    Genetic slurry is the troll term for cum, or genetic material. Due to the mixing of genetic slurry and the lack of knowledge about one's ancestors, all troll sex can be considered vaguely incestuous.

    Buckets, due to their usage, are a very vulgar word, and any time the term bucket is used for something such as a janitor's bucket, a replacement word is used. Buckets are also sometimes called filial pails, if they are used to store genetic slurry.

    Trolls generally have two separate partners, for the flushed and pitch quadrants, which they have to produce genetic slurry with.

    The Alternian Empire expects a troll to provide genetic samples at least once a year, and a failure to do so leads to being culled by the Drone that comes to collect the 'pails'.

31. #31ancestorsselective

    Keys: Ancestors

    Troll ancestors are a concept in troll culture, that arose due to the lack of known parentage after a troll's birth. It is believed that ancestors are the people who provided the most genetic material that created a grub, and that their descendants are fated to walk down a similar path in life.

    Ancestors are usually considered a myth by most of the castes, except for the highblood castes who can live long enough to even meet their ancestors, provided they are not killed.

    The desire to meet your ancestor is considered weird, and dangerous.

32. #32Orphanerselective

    Keys: orphaner

    The Orphaner is a title and role assigned to one, or a few, specific trolls tasked with the hunting of lusii to feed Gl'bgolyb. The title specifically references that most of the lusii killed have charges, and as such end up creating orphans.

33. #33Gl'bgolybselective

    Keys: Gl'bgolyb, vast glub

    Gl'bgolyb is the only lusus that has the fuchsia blood colour. It is a horrorterror, and it is very psychically powerful. It is believed that if it is ever displeased, it will utter the Vast Glub, which will eradicate all troll life in the universe. As such, it is cared for by the heiress. Due to its strength, it is also used as a threat by the fuchsiablood caste, as they are the only ones able to communicate with it effectively. While it is quite dangerous, it is not particularly malicious, only demanding to be fed constantly. It is clearly sapient, and able to communicate, though it prefers not to unless forced. It usually defends the Heiress against any direct attack from the Empress. It is similar to an eldritch horror in shape and size, and it is waterbound.

34. #34think panselective

    Keys: thinkpan, think pan

    Think pan is the troll term for a brain.

35. #35The Suffererselective

    Keys: sufferer, vast expletive, signless

    The Sufferer, also known as the Signless due to his lack of a zodiac sign, is a historical and religious figure in Troll culture. He was a mutant troll with candy-red blood, similar to a human's, who preached equality between the castes and the downfall of the hemospectrum. He is a Christ-like figure to trolls, and has subsequently been shot with an arrow in the ribs, as a parallel to the chest wound inflicted by the lance of Longinus, had his arms bound with hot manacles shaped like a cancer sign, and eventually burned to death. His preaching and eventual martyrdom created a persistent and very illegal cult dedicated to his teachings, which eventually led to a revolt on Alternia, which caused the Empress to ban any adults from living on Alternia. Upon his death, the Sufferer yelled out the Vast Expletive, which is supposed to be inspire the faithful, and prophesied a Second Coming. His teachings are constantly suppressed by the Subjuggulators.

36. #36limebloodselective

    Keys: lime blood, lime caste, limeblood

    The limeblood caste is one of the twelve bloodcastes. It used to lie between the Gold and Olive castes. Due to their abilities, the current Empress called for a genocide, which managed to wipe almost all of them out. The rest that are alive pretend to be different bloodcastes, to avoid culling. Limebloods had a specific ability to supernaturally calm down highbloods, which presumably led to their culling due to their stabilizing effect on Alternia's deliberately bloody society. Limebloods tend to have smaller, rounder horns. Mutant limebloods have candyred blood.

37. #37mutantsselective

    Keys: mutant, mutantblood

    Trolls tend to experience a rather large degree of mutation, presumably due to the way their procreation works. These mutations range from different eye shapes, to whole new limbs, up to entirely new blood colours. One such mutation is the redblood mutation, which causes the mutant to have human-like blood, crimson in colour, which causes their body to run hotter than any other troll's. Mutants are usually culled, if they are lowbloods, or ignored if their mutation is minor. A sufficient enough mutation, such as a tail or third arm is usually grounds for culling by the drones, no matter the caste.

38. #38alternian empireselective

    Keys: alternian empire, empire

    The Alternian Empire is the political entity that encompasses all lands controlled by Trolls. It is led by the Empress, currently Her Imperious Condescension, as a theoretical supreme monarchy. In reality, it is an oligarchy led by the most powerful trolls of the Empire, as the Empress spends most of her time conquering new lands. It is an intergalactic empire, with a very eclectic mix of technology, ranging from space ships and healing pods, but lacking knowledge about airplanes and heavier than air flight. This is mostly because of the abilities of the goldblood caste, which removes the needs for a lot of scientific development. The Alternian Empire is incredibly unfair, and somehow ran in a semi-capitalist and semi-planned economy, as the jobs are assigned by the state, but money can be used to get better assignments. Generally, Alternian society is considered to be post-scarcity, though the low castes do not get access to the nearly infinite resources of the higher castes. The society of the Empire is mostly controlled via the subjuggulators, the violet caste and the teal caste. It is purposefully violent and militaristic, as the average troll is conscripted once they reach adulthood and sent to conquer new lands for the Empire.

39. #39Typing quirkselective

    Keys: hemotyping, quirk, typing quirk

    Almost every troll on Alternia has a typing quirk. This can range from only using capital letters or lowercase letters, to replacing certain letters with others, all the way to speaking with a different font or massively changing the syntax of every sentence. Trolls get their typing quirks from youth, and they usually keep them forever. Hemotyping also falls under this, as all trolls tend to type in text coloured with their blood colour, or a similar colour. Trolls tend to sometimes adopt the typing quirk of quadrantmates, at least partially, creating a mix. This is a very intimate thing, and presumes a great deal of familiarity and closeness, and as such is seen as a statement of love. By the same logic, trolls do not appreciate it if the one doing it is not close to them.

    A troll that types in gray does that to hide their blood colour from other people, an action usually done by followers of the Signless and by mutants.

40. #40Medicalizerselective

    Keys: medicalizer

    The medicalizer is a large piece of machinery that can cure most wounds and diseases. They look sleek and futuristic, and are usually owned only by highbloods. They work on aliens as well, which implies some level of adaptability or sentience.

41. #41sweepselective

    Keys: sweep

    The sweep, or solar sweep, is the troll equivalent of a year, and it lasts for two point sixteen Earth years. Six sweeps, therefore, are equal to 13 Earth years.

42. #42bilunar perigeeselective

    Keys: perigee, bilunar perigee

    The bilunar perigee, or simply perigee, is the troll equivalent to a day.

43. #43seasonal equinoxselective

    Keys: equinox, seasonal equinox

    The seasonal equinox, or simply an equinox, is the troll equivalent to a human month. Due to the fact that Alternia has multiple seasons, equinoxes are usually referred as together with whether the season was dim or dark.

44. #44seasonsselective

    Keys: season, dark season, dim season

    Alternia has different seasons than on Earth. It has six dark seasons, and six dim seasons. During the dark season, it is mostly dark outside during the night, where as during the dim season, it is dim enough to be able to see outside during the night.

45. #45wriggling dayselective

    Keys: wriggling day

    A wriggling day is the troll equivalent to a birthday. They do not place much importance on that date, as opposed to humans.

46. #4612th Perigee's Eveselective

    Keys: 12th Perigee's Eve, perigee's eve, eve

    The 12th Perigee's Eve is the troll equivalent of Christmas, and it happens every sweep. It involves decorating the house together with a troll's lusus. It also involves the lusus bringing in the droppings of a creature called a Behemoth and hiding them in the hive, as a sort of easter egg hunt.

47. #47Tealbloodedselective

    Keys: Teal caste, Tealblooded, Teal blood

    Tealbloods are technically the true middle of the hemospectrum, but lowbloods don't tend to see it that way. Teals are pretty welcome in highblood circles, although they are sometimes treated like charity cases that are there only through the endless generosity of their higherblooded peers. They are generally seen as "fake" highbloods. Teal bloods are a caste of civil servants whose typical roles include tasks as menial as petty expeditions to plaster seizure notices on gamblignant property. Among these civil servants are the legislacerators, who were at one time employed by the subjugglators as bounty hunters tasked with bringing criminals to justice.

48. #48Gold casteselective

    Keys: yellow caste, Gold blood, yellowblooded, Goldblooded, Gold caste, Goldbloods, yellow blood

    The gold blood caste is one of the twelve troll blood castes. The third lowest caste on the hemospectrum, it is preceded by bronze; it was succeeded by olive. Goldbloods are the lowbloods that are given the most respect. They jump ahead to almost midblood status for two reasons: the Empress's curious decision to keep one of them on her command ship, and the fact that the powers and abilities that have a trend of manifesting in this blood caste make it safer for you to just be less of an ass in general. They are generally seen as the "good" lowbloods. Gold blood is a dark yellow in color, and the goldblood lifespan is comparable to that of a human.

    Goldbloods seem to have the most potent psychic abilities of the extant lowbloods, something that appears related to their often unusual eye colour, with some goldbloods having entirely pupil-less eyes filled with one or two flat hues, something known as VISION TWOFOLD. Gold bloods in general seem to be involved with technology and computing.

49. #49blue casteselective

    Keys: blue caste, ceruleanblooded, cerulean blood, blueblooded, cerulean caste, blue blood

    The ceruleanblood caste is one of the twelve troll blood castes. It comes after teal, and under indigo. Ceruleanblooded trolls are usually considered to be semi-highbloods. They are typically quite entrepreneurial, and usually develop quite good skills in subjects that they enjoy.

    They tend to have a lot of mutations regarding vision and their eyes, usually marked by unusual pupils, but sometimes even fully formed additional eyes.

    Ceruleanbloods sometimes have psychic powers relating to the mind, which lets them read other's minds or even control them.

    Ceruleanbloods are usually associated with the more deadly and predatorial insects, such as spiders and scorpions.

50. #50Indigobloodedselective

    Keys: Indigoblooded, Indigo blood, Indigo caste

    The indigo blood caste is one of the twelve troll blood castes, higher than blue and succeeded by purple. While indigo bloods lack the psychic abilities of the castes immediately above and below, some among them instead possess remarkable and uncontrollable strength. Trolls of the indigo caste tend to have pointed or arrow-shaped horns, matching the shape of their signs.
