Is it ever described what the adult trolls do out in the universe, or is that left to the reader's imagination?

So, where do the adult trolls go? Feel free to just link me to where you found this information, if you'd rather not explain.

They are scattered amongst the cosmos, doing their duty to expand the trollian empire.

The Condesce ordered this after the Summoner’s rebellion in hope of lowering the chances of another one ever happening

I was under the impression that all the Followers of the Sufferer could do was breed a lusus of The Sufferer's blood colour, so that once his descendant survived the brooding caverns he would have a lusus to take care of him (since he would almost certainly die without one, as The Sufferer almost did). That, and they somehow gave Karkat his sign, however that process goes. Source for all that on page 005956

Hm, it looks like you’re right. Good job.

Besides, with adult trolls being banished from Alternia I guess it would be nearly impossible for a follower to retrieve Karkat.

Can trolls still reach god tier??

I’m going to assume you are referring to the ones that are still alive.

Probably not.  If they could find a questcoccoon in a dream bubble or if Kanaya found Jade’s questbed, maybe.  We don’t know if those would work or not and the trolls probably wouldn’t be willing to try it unless it was an emergency. So we may never know.

Since Kurloz is very high on the hemospectrum, shouldn't he be extremely dangerous? How come he doesn't go on killing sprees and stuff?

Beforan society wasn’t nearly as violent as Alternian.  High-blooded trolls acted more like guardians than dictators.

Kurloz is still very dangerous though, but he seems to prefer to work from behind the scenes.

*claps* wow, you actually did it. You know your homestuck well.

If I didn’t know it well then I’d be a bad choice to run this blog now wouldn’t I

~Mod T

Can you give me a summary of homestuck in 30 words or less?

Kids play a game, unexpected shit happens, they destroy the world, they become magical girls and then more stuff happens, Also grey candy corn head people and ectobiological shenanigans.

Did the alpha kids have consorts on their planets, similar to the nakodiles and salamanders on the beta kids planets? I don't remember any consorts being shown for them... Is that because they're in a dead session?

Yes they had consort, but the consorts were all dead.  You can see skeletal remains in various pages such as in [S] ACT 6 ACT 3

When dad died was he in the game?

He was on Skaia. So yes, he was in the game

hey! do you happen to have any facts about grubs? i was wondering if their horns are naturally a certain length or shape, and their lusii maybe stretch or shape them a certain way to match their own... Maybe something about the brooding caverns? I mean if its meant to be a quality control thing for grubs then how did karkat survive? Do the jadebloods make the clothes for the trolls? is this why theyre so adept in fashion? if so did one of them make karkats special so he wouldnt be caught?

Not a lot is known about grubs. Based on the ones made by Karkat their horns are naturally shaped how they are. The Following of the Sufferer had been waiting for Karkat for sweeps upon sweeps so they probably intercepted him so he didn’t have to go through the brooding caverns. Fashion is not a trait exclusive to jadebloods. Kanaya just likes fashion.
