![]() The final form of the Battlefield can only be reached by all players prototyping at least once before entry, as the final form of the Battlefield is required in order to grow the Genesis Frog and thus win the game.Ī session with no pre-entry prototyping is called a void session. (For example John prototyped his sprite with a harlequin doll before entering the Medium, and with his grandma's ashes after entering the Medium, but the Royals and Underlings only were affected by the harlequin prototyping.) A sprite entering the Medium also causes the the Battlefield to grow, with each entry of a prototyped sprite causing it to grow further. Because the sprite only splits upon entering the Medium and never again, only the prototyping done before entering the Medium will affect the Underlings and Royals. The data modifies the Underlings players face and the Royals of the light and dark kingdoms. Ī prototyped sprite, upon entering The Medium, will divide into a kernel and a sprite, and then the kernel will also divide in two, carrying the prototyping data to spires on Prospit and Derse. Sprites are capable of passing through solid objects, which sometimes leaves behind ectoplasm. Objects summoned or created by sprites have even been used in alchemy. Arquiusprite also used the ability to obtain Jane's fridge (with Gamzee Makara still inside it) during Collide. Sprites can also use their conjuration powers for non-combat purposes, as seen when Nannasprite conjured a bed and oven, when Becsprite broke Jade's fall with a copy of her bed, and when Davesprite used his sprite powers to scribble on John's Armageddon poster / letter. The nature of their abilities is determined by the prototypings, with Nannasprite seen creating household appliances and food and healing John after a fight with ogres, Calsprite seen creating smuppets, Davesprite being able to use his stomach sword as a weapon and Becsprite appeared to be able to enhance his energy beam with his first guardian powers. Sprites do have holes in their knowledge of Sburb, most notably in regards to the Denizens and the Choices they offer.Īlong with guiding the player, they can also aid in combat, possessing the ability to create beams of energy and/or duplicate objects which can be used as an attack, heal the player and telekinetically pick up objects. They are supposed to be coy in about the information, only revealing it in vague statements, riddles, or when it is deemed appropriate, however they are perfectly capable of being direct with the information as seen with Davesprite who offers to tell the alpha Dave everything. The sprite or the individual(s) prototyped are given access to a wealth of knowledge about Sburb and their corresponding player's personal quest, with the ability to convey the information limited by intelligence of the sprite which is limited to that of its composing parts, as seen with Jaspersprite, who struggles to convey and understand complex concepts. However during Cascade, Davesprite and Jadesprite were seen almost being struck by a meteor without any apparent attempt to flee.Ĭombining the kernelsprite with inanimate objects, living or formerly living beings is a process known as prototyping, the objects or beings become the sprite. However the trolls' Lususprites were all said to be dead and were not seen during the battle against the Black King, it is possible they were killed by meteors during the Reckoning, though this is unconfirmed. Sprites are apparently drawn to the Battlefield at some point for unknown reasons. Until that point, a Sprite can still communicate with their player using a Spritelog, which can work at a distance - at least allowing Nannasprite to communicate with John as he was down on his planet past the first gate, and she was still in the house. Despite serving as a guide, sprites cannot accompany their players through The Seven Gates until they have unlocked the ability to do so at which point the sprite gives the player a pendant which they can use to summon the sprite. Sprites are meant to serve as a player's guide, but they also have functions important to a session. Despite their name, ghostly appearance and abilities they have been confirmed to be corporeal and are considered to be alive (although arguably undead). ![]() However after hatching, or a second prototyping or a special prototyping they appear in a ghost-like form possessing a tail. Before entry and after a single, normal prototyping, the sprites appear as simplistic floating heads within the kernel. Sprites, known in their initial, unprototyped form as Kernelsprites, are entities released from the Cruxtruder when first opened when a person is setting up after beginning to play Sburb. For the method of portraying an image of a character, see character sprite. The B1 tier 1 sprites This article is about the game entities created by Sburb in Homestuck. ![]()
