In Character Information
Name: Dave Strider
Series: Homestuck
Canon Standing: Post Intermission 3
Age: 15
Birthday & Astrology Sign: December 3rd & Sagittarius
Arcana: Death
Personality:
Dave is cool, in every meaning of the word. Well, actually, he's a bit of a dork, but whatever. He's "the cool kid," in Terezi's words, and he learned from the best, his Bro. At the same time, he keeps calm and impassive, even if on the inside he might be panicking. Dave is calm and collected, but may seem to be like he's laid-back. He takes his time and goes at his own pace. His cool kid persona is what gives him confidence, and it feeds into his "don't give a shit" attitude. Dave looks like he could care less, and it's hard to tell if he's being sincere at times. However, if a friend of his needs his help, then he'll sure as hell do whatever he can to help them. He also loves music and is considered an amateur photographer.
His sense of humor, likes, dislikes, practically his entire life revolves around irony. This is something he picks up from his brother, the king of irony. It's normally his humor, likes, and dislikes that are ironic. For example, he calls Terezi's art pretty shitty, but the shittiness is what makes it cool, at least for him. Perhaps ironically, Dave has a pretty bad memory. He forgets things right and left. He's forgotten about his Timetables, and consequently forgot he could time travel in general, almost forgot when John's birthday was, and has even forgotten to forget something. Yeah, okay, Dave's definitely a huge dork.
Dave's got a strange relationship with his brother. Everything he knows comes from Bro, and there's a healthy sibling rivalry between them. He loves his brother, though the puppets Bro's obsessed with creep him out. Dave never expects to be as good as him, but he seems okay with that. He's learned to deal with jealousy in a better way thanks to his brother, though granted it's by "not giving a shit." After his death, any questions regarding it is either dodged or vague.
While it's not too often that he flips out over anything, there are times in which he does just that. When he tries to get Bro's copies of Sburb, he keeps running into puppets or getting covered with them. He warns Rose that if he sees another one, he will fly off the handle with style. Dave has even pestered John in capslock to tell him that puppets are still awesome, though it's obvious at that point that it's a lie. Otherwise, he honestly doesn't show any anger or just general flipping out all that often.
He's a skeptical and fairly logical fellow, something he shares with Rose. For example, when John was telling him about what the Medium was like, Dave pretty much thought that he was pulling his leg. It's only after much insistence that he even plays Sburb to help Rose get to safety. He also questions how a game could save anyone's life just by him playing it. However, with Jade's precognitive abilities, he just doesn't question it anymore because it normally comes true. This is one of those times in which he just goes with the flow instead of trying to apply logic to it.
There are two weaknesses in his personality: his stubbornness and his mortality. He completely ignores the advice and warning Karkat gives him about Terezi and Vriska's rivalry. This also ties into his skepticism when John told him to get Sburb and help Rose. Dave also has trouble dealing with dying, both for himself and to a certain extent to his friends. This is seen when he has to push a dead Dave into the lava of his planet, and stares at the blood--his blood--on his hands for a long while. This comes up again when he realizes that he has to die on the Quest Bed in order to become god tier like John. He also has an outburst when Rose tells him that she has to die in order to destroy the Green Sun, until she clarifies that it'll be her Dream Self who will die. However, he has no problem risking his life if it means his friends can get out alive. This part of him is seen during Rose's suicide mission, as well as a blatant disregard for her wishes for him to stay when she was in danger.
Backstory:
Homestuck and Dave Strider
Canon Powers:
Dave is the Knight of Time. This means he can go from the future to the past and back however he pleases. His responsibility is to create 'stable' time lines, and to keep the alpha line going strong. If not, then time starts getting a bit fucked up, at least in the world of Homestuck. In Dave's words, "dead daves start piling up and dead daves are the enemy." He also uses his time traveling in battle by going forward or backward in short spurts. (Unsure of how this will be handled in the game)
Dave is also immortal (unless his death is Heroic or Just) and can fly without the assistance of magic. (Unsure of how this will be handled in the game)
He uses the bladekind and 1/2bladekind Strife Specibi. This means he can use a wide variety of swords, even broken ones. These will be Slash/Physical attacks.
Dave's got insanely fast moves thanks to sparring with his ninja of a brother. He's nothing compared to Bro Strider's speed, but he's certainly much faster than normal, and in that vein he likely has more stamina than normal. [Physical]
