Knight Of Life

knight of life

knights over compensate for their self perceived lack of aspect by getting balls deep into their aspect, surrounding themself in their aspect. they do that, but not enough that it would raise any red flags to anyone who they didnt let in, who they didnt trust enough to say “hey what do you think about how i do this? am i bad, good, okay? even half decent at it?” the kicker is, they dont trust anyone like that for a long LONG time.

Those bound to the aspect of Life are the universe’s healers. They are concerned with the betterment of themselves and those around them, as well as the onward march of positive progress. Deeply empathetic, they have an intuitive understanding of other’s suffering and the best way of righting those wrongs. If you’re poisoned, chances are the Life-bound have something for what ails ya. This applies to both physical and mental suffering, though it might not be a cure you’ll like. They also have the tendency to put other’s needs before their own, which never ends well for anyone, because the Life-bound can grow bitter if they feel their own self-care has had to be shunted aside. At their best, they are great listeners, caretakers, and nurturers. At their worst, the Life-bound are passive aggressive, and pushy-they’re certain they know best.

a knight of life is a go getter with charisma. if they were a dnd character, they would have minimum a +4 mod on charisma. people automatically like their attitude and energy. if someone were to look at this knight, theyd be like “yeah, this guy seems like they know what theyre doing in almost any social situation.” but in reality, this motherfucker got crippling social anxiety that they hide behind a very WELL put together front. after a big party where they were the shining star, they hide in the bathroom and cry. i mean ugly cry. motherfucker got snot dripping down their face while their head is in their hands and maybe a little bit of rocking back and forth while they over analyze every little thing they did. no one knows about their freak out, though. they did it behind closed doors after everyone at the party left. they didnt tell anyone a word of this meltdown. what happens in the locked bathroom at 2:27 am stays in that locked bathroom. this knight is a perfectionist. they could be getting so many pats on the back about this big project they made. say they have jut finished an animation project. everyone is telling them how wonderful it is, how fluid and beautiful the art is. but they remember the several panels that were rushed and look sketchy as fuck. yeah, its during the biggest motion in the whole project. but if someone were to pause at 32.3 seconds and started walking the animation frame by frame, they would see the shaky lines, the wobbly circles, the weird pen pressure thing when their pen was fucking up. and someone seeing those mistakes would be their undoing.

if ur ok with requests can u analyze knight of space :0c

Yeah, I'm okay with requests! I actively encourage them, in fact!

Okay so: The Knight of Space. (Disclaimer: Pretty much everything here is speculation. I’m mostly doing this because I find Classpects really really interesting, so this might not be super accurate. Also, I will be looking at cookie cutter examples for personality. Those parts are mostly for 1.) Making characters and 2.) Being like “Oh my god that’s me wow that’s so cool”. Okay anyway lets actually do this thing. WHERE MAKING THIS HAPEN)

KNIGHT

The Knight class is very powerful, especially considering they get a lot of their powers before god-tiering. (im jealous - the page) The Knight is the active version of the Page class, and they would manipulate their aspect, or manipulate through their aspect. Looking at the canon Knights (excluding Latula because I find her hard to analyze), we have Dave Strider, the Knight of Time (Endings, Death) , and Karkat Vantas, the Knight of Blood (Companionship, Bonds) (OMG GAY PEOPLE!??/?!!??!?!?)

Anyway, Dave Strider. Dave had an inherent talent for his aspect, and got the hang of time travel and time loops pretty quickly. (He also self-prototyped, which might be a time player thing considering they already surround themselves with clones anyway.) He also very actively exploited Time to get rich. However, he rejected parts of his aspect, specifically the death and endings part, and tried to cover up his lack of comfortability with his own mortality with a constant "cool guy" routine. Knights also are very likely to show up in sessions lacking their Aspect, and Dave was in a session that had only about a day before the reckoning.

Karkat Vantas is the Knight of Blood, and while Blood is less flashy than Time, he still exploited the hell out of his aspect. He basically used Blood to have everyone rally around him, in a positive way or not. He had everyone basically unite in sort of hating him, and that held the session together. Trolls are a very violent race on Alternia, and so there was a lack of Blood, but Karkat pulled everyone together. He rejected how much he loved his friends by putting on a "I HATE EVERYONE" façade.

SPACE

Space is one of the “big two” aspects, Time and Space, which are both necessary for a successful session, and both have an aspect that elaborates on one facet of the aspect, Doom and Life. That being said, Space is about creation, the laws that govern reality, and well, physical space. Personality wise, this results in most Space players being creative people, and ones who are interested in science, typically some branch of astrophysics. Some Space players manifest their aspect as nurturing behaviors, although this is most commonly shown in Sylphs and Maids, the two “Caretaker” classes.

KNIGHT OF SPACE - PERSONALITY

The Knight of Space would probably be really creative, but tunnel vision on one part of their aspect. For example, a Knight of Space might be very creative, good at drawing, really like puzzles, etc. But, they would only focus on say, making cosplay. They would likely be interested in all the other things, but think that they were too "lame" or "soft" to be interested in. (Have I mentioned that Knights seem to desperately try to be cool to everyone around them? That's not just a Dave thing.)

As time went on, the Knight would realize that they are allowed to like what they like, even if it's "cringe" or "lame". They would take off their mask of coolness, and allow people to see who they truly are, and if they didn't like it, they could just buzz off! The Knight, at heart, would be pretty excited about Space-y things, and be pretty good at them too!

KNIGHT OF SPACE - ABILITIES

As I said, the Knight of Space would be pretty powerful before god-tiering. In the beginning, they could probably get some low-level items spontaneously generated, like a Perfectly Generic Object or something along those lines. I can also imagine a Knight of Space having a planet with some sort of teleportation gates, and they would find out how to use them.

At higher levels, the Knight would be able to instantly appear an object, and probably game that ability for INFINITE GRIST. Alternatively, they could also game that ability for INFINITE BOONDOLLARS. It's their choice really. The Knight would also be able to teleport themselves and other objects.

Knights also protect their aspect, such as Dave protecting the timeline, and Karkat protecting the bonds between everyone. A Knight of Space might be very protective of things that are still growing, so they might be a very protective older sibling, or even somebody that would KILL for their cactus.

CONCLUSION

So, a Knight is a pretty powerful class. Especially considering the fact that Space is a pretty gosh darn powerful aspect in itself. To reach their full potential, a Muse of Space would, as usual, be pretty useful. However, I can see a Seer of Rage showing them how to be skeptical of their own front to cover up a part of their aspect. The Knight would also be really good at creating the Genesis Frog, and in general the Knight would be pretty good at "Space Duties", unless they fail to remove their front, in which case they may not be successful at all. (The Knight would also be very very homosexual and gay /j)

Feel free to recommend a Classpect, or to ask me about other SBURB stuff. Or just random questions.

stop getting your information on did/osdd-1 from unsourced and uninformed tumblr posts, twitter threads, and youtube/tiktok videos like i swear to god i'm going to legit end up in a psych ward again if y'all keep parroting actually dangerous misinfo because of what some random 14 y/o claims is correct.

here's some decent sources where you can get some actually helpful and accurate info:

dissociation faqs from the international society for the study of trauma and dissociation

did-research - basic, but it's there.

traumadissociation - detailed explanation of diagnostic criteria and symptom presentation.

this-is-not-dissociative and also their resource list - one of the mods, katherine, is the creator of did-research.

did-sos - mainly resources for those who have did/osdd-1 (or "just" cptsd), but others may find it informative or even helpful nonetheless.

bear in mind all of this stuff should be looked at with a critical eye, as with everything online pertaining to highly stigmatized psychiatric diagnoses. don't just take things at face value, think about them.

did/osdd-1 is not like sybil. did/osdd-1 is not like split or glass. did/osdd-1 is not like the united states of tara. did/osdd-1 is not "multiple people in one body" or obvious blackout switches and dissociative fugue between every single alter or something purely iatrogenic/sociocognitive in nature. it is a post-traumatic condition as a result of long-term traumatic experiences in early childhood where a reliance on dissociation as a coping mechanism prevents integration of the parts of the self into a cohesive whole. i'm making this post because twitter is a shitshow of both teenagers and grown adults that should know better spreading easily disproven and sometimes dangerous bullshit like insisting child alters should be treated like actual children and doing otherwise is problematic when actual predators have used that same logic to groom actual children. what people with did/osdd-1 need is less myths and misinformation, not more. the pervasive misunderstanding of and stigma against osddid is part of why we face disturbingly high rates of suicide and psychiatric abuse that exacerbates the trauma we've already faced. it's a serious issue that extends beyond internet arguments and while people without did/osdd-1 need to be more vigilant about participating in the spread, the enormous chunk of people who have it and are happily being wrong aren't exempt from this either.
