I'm a big ol' nerd when it comes to classpecting, and I'd love to see YOUR CLASSPECTS FOR NON-MSPA/MSPFA CHARACTERS doesn't matter who or what they're from. Explanations for the assigned classpect aren't required but they are HEAVILY encouraged.
Mostly in regards to the connection between Light and Gamebreaking, to extrude as much meaning from something as possible, no matter the harm caused. I think that lines up with what we understand "Chara" to be in the Genocide Route, which is an embodiment of completionism itself, with the whole crux of Geno being about pushing the game to be a horrible, painful experience just to see what happens.
I'd say that also connects to Chara, the human, a litttle bit(The alarm clock dialogue says Chara would always fill their water glass to the very brim, something that feels like a small bit of connective tissue between the kind of person they were in life compared to what would take their form in death. Though maaaybe I'd give them a different classpect altogether, anyhow).
look...they're so jolly, to see, you!!
OH also, zhen psycholonials Prince of Rage (Derse), I thank Hussie for giving us a Third rage player
look...they're so jolly, to see, you!!
Sonic is a Kight and Optimus Prime is an Heir. Both are Breathbound.
Gnarly, Radical, on the block I'm Magical
Dammit I misspelled knight
Gnarly, Radical, on the block I'm Magical
I used to be against Sonic Knight but I think it fits him best, with the caveat of him being a fully-realized Knight, in the way the fiction he comes from lets him be a capital H Hero to the fullest. The ideal the Knights as seen in Homestuck would struggle to embody and inevitably struggle really fuckin hard with
look...they're so jolly, to see, you!!
haha, it feels embarrassing to come in here with my own damn characters but they're the only ones i have strong convictions for. if you want to poke around you can read some of the comic (long gone legends). somewhat shameless shill.
florence is a prince of void. i also saw him as a doom player for a bit but i dont think that ultimately suits him, re: he's a bit too observably lightbound and DEFINITELY not lifebound. its whole damn thing is having a mystery he doesn't stop at any length to solve. even if it fucks it over. i'm actually quite interested in his classpect since it comes off as a very passive character, but prince is (debatably, as all things are) a VERY active class. but i do think he has his little trail of destruction. yet to be seen, in some cases.
cameron, his sibling, is a knight of blood. a lot of their insecurities are founded on whether or not they're a good daughter/sibling/friend to the people around them, whether or not haun's doing enough, and she depends a lot on her community and at the very least tries to use it to her advantage. i used to have her as a witch. i was not right about that. they're pretty bad at being palatable and sociable, so i think a good amount of the knightly insecurities stem from that.. but they have their own way of doing things, and it works. they just don't trust themself enough.
the other knight (as much as i wanted to have them all be different classes, it just lines up better like this) is victor, knight of doom. pretty standard stuff here: history of being witness to death and loss, guards himself against it by being more fatalistic than the world around him. i don't have a whole lot to say, since his classpect is fucking cut and dry.
another really cut and dry one is lukah as the heir of light. he's naturally curious and sticks his nose in places it probably doesn't belong. again, i used to have him as a rogue, and i'm less strong in my classes than my aspects, but he acts more passively as mr. exposition and that friend you go to to help you research the fucked up shit around you than anything roguelike.
mel is a mage of breath; the only consistent classpect ive had for any of these characters because Holy Fuck is he a mage of breath. the one class i consider myself an expert in is mages, since it's the class i've stuck to for literal fucking ages, no matter what aspect suits my whim. ive stuck to mage of blood, though. anyways, mel's been moving their whole life and never really gets the chance to settle into anything, never gets the chance to form a solid community, as much as they want to. i've always pretty strongly associated breath with dissociation, for hopefully obvious reasons to anyone who's considered breath, and mel experiences a fuck ton of that. despite wanting to be grounded, they always fall back on nonexistence.
finally, jaime is a maid of time. maid's another class i'm pretty interested in, but that's because of jane crocker. jaime's folks are very... restrictive on what she does, and during the comic she comes out of her shell and redefines how she spends her time and how she interacts with the world, outside of her academics and her parent's expectations. she'll probably cut them off when she's older. i'm not super sure about the aspect. i did consider mind, but she's a bit too heartbound to be a mind player.
anyways, a bonus classpect for anyone who actually bothered to read all of that: im pretty sure most people say that jesus (yeah from the bible its funny) is a muse of hope (maybe even hussie themself? check before you trust me) but i think he's a more active player. i could see rogue, but that's just vibes-based speculation. i'd love to see thousands upon thousands of replies re: jesus classpect. let's do it, folks.
Obligatory Deltarune classpectenings:
Kris - Thief of Breath
Susie - Knight of Heart
Noelle - Witch of Hope
Ralsei - Mage of Void
Berdly - Bard of Mind
Lancer - Pumpkin of Boy
I'd share my reasoning for each, but I don't feel like typing all that out at just this moment. If anyone would like to hear them though I wouldn't mind sharing in a bit.
I've been thinking about Legion of Superheroes a lot and I don't have classpects for everyone yet but I have a couple preliminary ones. Brainiac 5 is Seer of Doom. (Brainiacs in general are very Doomy). Not because of the whole 12th level intelligence stuff and the green guy with technology thing so much as stuff related to themes of self-destruction. Plus his role in the story.
Andromeda (post-Zero Hour, at least) is Maid of Hope, under the interpretation of Maids being pawns of their Aspect who come to find themselves in it, and of Hope as including faith/religion as well as more literal hope.
We all agree that Kris Deltarune is a Knight of Heart tho right?
Re: Cambyon
Your bard of mind assignment for Berdly still pisses me off. No matter how many times you defend that SLOP to me I refuse to entertain such FOOLISHNESS.
I was gonna reply to this thread last night but it occurred to me that the meta of classpecting stuff has probably changed drastically, and despite how much i love the classpecting system, i am not touching new HS content with the ten foot pole. I would however gladly classpect pretty much any character i think i know well enough to spit out an analysis on.
If anyone does however have a good up to date quick ref on the classes and aspects i would appreciate a brush up, because the one i use is from 2015
deltarune: i think kris is a thief of heart, susie a rogue of hope, and ralsei a prince of light.
warning unexplained yap/list incoming
god i fucking love classpecting (voice of a man who doesnt fucking understand classpecting in the slightest)
i have a whole thing ive been doing where i classpect a bunch of songs i personally like, but ive mainly done lemon demon songs because thats like my #2 thing of all time
Lemon Demon as a whole (not neil himself, just the demon) feels extremely voidbound. i feel that one may be self-explanatory if you have listened to lemon demon, but also im just too deep and have no idea how to explain things sometimes.
Clown Circus as an album also feels inclined towards void as it is but i havent figured out all the songs yet.
lemon demon (the song) feels... mostly rage, to me? but i could see a blood or void reading.

theres so much more i have but i fear typing ona keyboard while laying down doesnt do wonders for my shoulders and i need a nap ... buh....
i think. baobhan sith from hit game fate grand order would be a maid of doom. she's been a bit of a doormat until it brought her to a breaking point, she's been consumed by a curse, and suffers from the fact curses are the only thing she's good at until the point she learns to fight curses with curses - which sounds like a very close relationship to her aspect to me here, also learning more to be her own person then rather than a person in relation to another as she kind of always was before
though i might be wrong because my handle on the aspects isn't as good as with classes but eh
OK lemme see how good I am at classpecting:
Deltarune:
- Kris Dreemurr: Derse Maid of Breath
- Susie: Prospit Page of Hope
- Ralsei: Derse Mage of Doom
- Noelle Holiday: Prospit/Derse Witch of Void
- Berdly: Prospit Prince of Time
