Players who have multiple dreamselves definitely have a unique set of advantages and difficulties. Obviously its nice to have the ability to be revived twice. I can imagine, however, it is confusing to be bounced from moon to moon. As[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…

This is absolutely possible, but of course, as with nearly all mutated sessions, it depends on the shenanigans of the players, generally due to time loops. One querent to this blog apparently had to deal with ‘a pair of 200[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
Absolutely not, no more than wearing both rings would double the power of the Black Queen. It is in fact ‘normal’ in a session for one king (the Black King) to hold two scepters at once, when he takes the[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
I realize that sexuality in Carapaces is not a subject I have discussed in depth yet, which strikes me as remiss- or perhaps only somewhat modest- of me. Allow me to address some of it now. As I have discussed[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
There are many ways the Queen could be empowered, from utilizing artifacts of power that may be on the players planets, to unfortunate accidents involving first guardians. Wearing both rings at once would not confer any additional *magical* power on[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
The King’s power is absolutely transferable through possession of his scepter. Any carapace holding it would be able to wield it, and yes that does include the Black Queen. Obviously, prototypings would not double, but the Queen would receive the[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
Ask-Derse Guide to Dreamself Awakening:Using Astral Projection and Lucid Dreaming Methods The number one question I receive on this blog is ‘how do I wake my dreamself up?’. Historically, I have had no answer for this, as my own dreamself[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
It is possible that the program is a fake, yes, but it is also possible it is not. If you are trying to load the client with no server program to link up to, it is likely that the system[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
The game was called ‘sburb’. I have heard this is generally what the game is called when played by humans. As for media, the game was played on CD. In my universe it was the late 1990s when we played.
This is an interesting question. I hadn’t read Homestuck until I had been in the medium for some time, due to the strange way that our computers interact with the internet here. In the main, Homestuck has not presented much[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
I am afraid this is a very, very broad question. I cannot answer it unless I know what your situation is. Please, feel free to ask me a follow up with more details. As for ‘how this works’ I suppose[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
You are absolutely forgiven, querent, as I am happy always to give advice. I am sorry that it took so long to give you an answer- things have been busy on Derse today. Here are my answer for you First:[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
Obviously there is an economy on Derse, as goods and services are exchanged. Such exchanges are made in money (Boondollars, as with the rest of the medium). Dersites are paid by their employers for their labor, their wages are taxed[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
I have only ever briefly seen the Black Queen directly in combat, however that glimpse was certainly enough to make an impression. With the ring, the Queen’s power is terrifying. At base, she has access to powers of flight, inhuman[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
Please don’t wory about stealing my time. If I have better things to do, I simply don’t answer questions until those things are done with. Yours is a noble goal, and I certainly hope that you can come up with[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
Hello again, Witch. I’m happy that some of my advice has been useful to you. It can be difficult to remember that ‘space’ in the medium isn’t like the starry night sky on Earth. I do admit I miss stars[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
Sburb isn’t something you really find. It comes to you, in a myriad of forms. Usually as a harmless game. If you’re looking for sburb, I would say my best advice is to gather friends who *also* believe in it,[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
How do I personally feel about Democracy? To be frank, I have rarely been for it, as the rule of the masses is often confused. As far as I am concerned rule by Democracy is only as intelligent as the[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
There is in fact, only one city, spread out on the surface of Derse, sprawling and magnificent. It covers nearly a solid half of all the land on Derse, the rest being covered in inhospitable mountain ranges. The city is[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
The Dersite diet is in fact quite fascinating. As a culture they are given to heavily spiced food, and preserved food as well, with very little in the way of vegetables. This is of course because Derse has no suitable[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
Bowing (single arm across the waist, bend at the small of the back) or curtsying (dip knees apart, arms slightly extended holding your skirt if one is present) are considered gestures of respect toward a monarch or politician of suitable[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
Greetings, Witch. I’m delighted to hear that you were able to solve your session peacefully, as I am sure are the medium’s residents. As for ways to break out of the session and into a new universe, I do not[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
Unfortunately, that is a real possibility. I am deeply sorry that I was unable to answer your question until now, and I am curious if you ever regained your connection to your dreamself. Given that you were on Prospit, it[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
This is a difficult question and one I do not entirely have the answer to. Of course I have plenty of musings on the matter, but nothing concrete. The most I can say is typically about my own session and[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
If one asked a Dersite, they would likely tell you that the planet has a serious crime problem. This is in fact not entirely true. The crime rate on Derse is in fact low compared to any given urban society[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
I must tell you this. Yes, sburb is very real. It comes by many names, but you will know it when it arrives in your timeline. Are you searching for it?
