001 [Video]

[shellfishlovver]

[When the feed flicks on, Asgard will be greeted with what is probably best described as the least impressed face in the entire world. Dualscar looks deeply unsatisfied, but the fact is that this is his face after a day or two of mulling over the facts he's been presented with.]

Afternoon. [The greeting isn't said so much out of friendliness as it is out of formality.] Though I've recently arrived, I'm well informed as to my whereabouts and the nature of the situation. The less said about it, the better.

I'm not here to make idle conversation or to ask stupid questions, though I do require some information. I've already been acquainted with the...lesser beings that populate this place, though I would like to know just exactly how many different species there are among us, along with the more notable members of the populace. I've no time to waste on commonplace people or vapid conversation, any answers given are to be with purpose.

With that in mind, I have a particular interest in knowing which members of my species have made it here. Trolls, make your presence known to me. I need names and titles, even if you are from a less than respectable hue.

I suppose I should do you all the good pleasure of knowing just exactly who I am. I'm known as Orphaner Dualscar, and again, the presentation of my title is not cause for conversation or pleasantries.

.....Are you Eridan's troll-dad?

[shellfishlovver]

No.

[Narrowing his eyes.]

Who is Eridan?

video;

[tipsygnostalgia]

He's a troll I know. Squiggly horns.

[Reaction]--->[Video]

[fishdouche]

[Is that--It couldn't be--not here. He was...

So. Fuckin'. Cool. Seriously Eridan had the best ancestor in the history of all ancestors and Sollux Captor could suck his bulge because look at how cool Dualscar was. Just like Eridan knew he would be.

That cape. Those scars. He was pretty much the most intimidating troll Eridan had ever seen besides the Condesce.

Pardon Eridan, he's going to have a moment of intense fangirling and hyperventilating before he manages to gain his composure enough to turn on his video feed and arch a lone eyebrow before introducing himself.]

...

[He opens his mouth to say something witty, something that will suitably impress his ancestor. Except all that comes out is a high pitched squeak.

Cheeks flushed violet in embarrassment, Eridan quickly attempts to shut down the video feed.]

[Video.....]

[shellfishlovver]

[Dualscar's attention is focused the moment Eridan's face flicks onto his screen. It's like staring into a mirror. Only it's a mirror that makes you younger and takes the scars off your face. The resemblance is striking, so he's quick to make the conclusion that this is is in fact the Eridan that he apparently has assumed relations with.

He narrows his eyes at the squeak and frowns as he shuts off the feed. He keeps his own running, not feeling much in the mood for trifling with the text or voice functions.]

Eridan. [The demanding tone in his voice is apparent. He's hardly known you a second and he's already lost patience with you, boy.]

[Video.....]

[fishdouche]

[Oh Gog! He knew Eridan's name! What else did he knew? Was he impressed by his descendent's violent streak? Disappointed that he had turned on his version of the Empress?

There were too many unknowns, all swirling about in his head, as he turned back on the video feed and attempted to school his face back into something that resembled disdain.]

Orphaner. I see you'vve heard about me. All fuckin' good things, I'm sure.

[He hoped.]

"SalUtations, Orphaner DUalscar.

Apart from the gods, no one groUp holds trUe sway over the pUblic here in Asgard. Unlike the Alternia yoU are Used to, there is very little hierarchy in a society sUch as this. Not to say there are not those previoUsly Used to power. As I am sUre yoU are aware, yoUr QUeen does also reside in this realm."

[It is a pity Dualscar is not up for pleasantries, because pleasant is all Calliope knows; albeit this form is more businesslike than anything. Her smile may not be as bright as usual, but still is certainly there.]

"There are those of Us who have, shall we say, a rather UniqUe biological disposition, bUt overall the majority of oUr popUlace are hUman; even so, very few originate from the same iteration of existance or Universe. Even if they all go by the title and classification of hUman it is more accUrate to think of them all as differing species."

[Video]

[shellfishlovver]

Really now? How barbaric. What's stopping any group from stealing their way to power? [He quirks an eyebrow at her, not being subtle about taking in her appearance. She's certainly unfamiliar, but she isn't hostile as of yet so he'll reserve his judgement.]

I have been made aware of her presence, yes. She made it known to be herself. [And the smug look on his face indicates that she should be impressed by this for some reason.]

Alright. [He takes a moment to consider all that's been said.] So the majority of the population are humans, but there are subspecies of human and none of them conform to any particular hierarchy?

[Video]

[caduuceus]

"Correct, for the most part. I woUldn't really categorize them as sUbspecies, that woUld imply a difference of class and, as I have mentioned, we are all eqUals in this realm."

[Sorry Dualscar, if the cherub heard your declaration of pride, she hardly reacts to it.]

"She does tend to make a habit of that, yes.
As for who enforces this, that woUld be the gods. YoU may have noticed yoU are not in fUll posession of yoUr former abilities. In order to acclimate to this world, we have been somewhat redUced from oUr former power. The gods however, are capable of extraordinary things, sUch as the manipUlation of oUr emotions or transformation of oUr physical forms."

[Hardly surprising, considering they had the ability to summon them in the first place.]

"Death is not a permanent fix, bUt they do not look kindly Upon it, so there is little point to cUlling eachother; lest yoU intend to strife with the gods. Can't very well go diminishing oUr nUmbers when it took so mUch effort to gather Us all in the first place!"

[ Well, you sure are modest. The Doctor looks decidedly unimpressed, but he'll still answer. ]

I don't think anyone's made a specific count, I'm afraid, but we are a few. Probably ten at the most, I'd say.

[Video]

[shellfishlovver]

[His unimpressed expression is returned with the same bland sort of look, though Dualscar quirks an eyebrow as he speaks.]

When you say 'we', are you referring to those of us who are not human? [Yes, you're getting the 'you look human' look now.]

[Video]

[comeonthensexy]

[ What a good thing he knows that look so well, then. ]

I am. I know, I know, "you look human", yadda yadda. But I'm not. I'm a Time Lord.

[shellfishlovver]

Annoying and pointless you say? Noted. But I can't say I'm surprised. I'd hardly expected very favourable traits from such an under developed species.
The Empress has indeed made her presence known, and I have too been informed of the fact that there are grubs that are expected to coincide with.

[Now he's just going to pause a little at Terezi's little addition so he can fume to himself.]

Given that you aren't in possession of proper titles, I assume you are among said grubs. I must say I find it very bold of the both of you to approach me at all.

[LOOKING AT YOU, SEER.]

:33 < hello mister orphaner dualscar :33
:33 < i dont think anyone knows purrcisely how many species there are here but humans make up the biggest part!
:33 < and then us and a few others, but people come and go all the time

[shellfishlovver]

Wvhile the respect behind the mister is appreciated, it is an entirely unneccessary addition. My title wvill suffice.

So I'vwe heard. The vwery idea of sharing breathing space with dirtscrapers and pink beasts alike offends me, but I'm certain it's nothing newv to you.

[alternia_strength]

Hmmm. Yours is a name I know [Because that addled sea-dweller never shut up about you, seriously.] I am called Equius Zahhak, one of the nobility of our land-dwelling peoples, though I have yet to achieve any more august position in my youth. My aspirations will have to wait [Until I'm not, you know, dead].

As for the species, I would say from what I have seen there are two main species represented. Humans and trolls, the former being much larger in number. Beyond these, there are creatures called 'angels' roaming about, but what one of these worlds calls an angel, another does not.

Audio

[shellfishlovver]

In relation to positive reviews, I pressume? Regardless, it's good to know at least some among you are capable of decent manners. As is to be expected of nobility, I suppose.

I had heard humans dominate these numbers, but I'm certain trolls more than make up for our lack of numbers in battle experience.

What precisely is an Angel good for?
