Chatlogs

Calder Kerian, also known by his Skorpe handle, grandioseSaturation, is one of the trolls in Vast Error. His associated alchemic sigil is Iron and his horns are pointed upwards and towards each other, with the right one resembling the light of an angler fish.  

Despite appearing as such, his blood is not the fuchsia blood of the designated ruling class of trolls, but is a similar, but ultimately distinct Magenta color.

He was the ninth troll introduced and the third troll introduced in Act 2, however he made several appearances throughout Act 1.

Biography

Six Sweeps

In his younger years, Calder was friends with Laivan and Arcjec and used to be involved in their light-hearted pretend games. Additionally he was in a kismessitude with pliableDecadance and in a moiraillegence with Occeus. All of these relationships have been abandoned or ended for reasons unknown.

Pre-game

During the Game

Calder has not currently been shown to have entered the game.

Personality and Traits

Initially, Calder appears to be a very self-important troll with a superiority complex and what appears to be a vocal dislike of women. He is very aware of the social and environmental decline of Repiton, and is such very poltically driven. He is especially focused on how his fellow sea dwellers act, as he has spent quite a lot of time trying to get Murrit to be more like his younger, more ruthless self, to no avail.

Being the descendant of the troll that decimated the sea dweller population out of jealousy, Calder is a social pariah by association and feels an obligation to undo his ancestor's mistakes. As such, Calder obsessed with the continued existence of the sea dwelling trolls, and in becoming a leading force on Repiton. He works to increase his influence by publishing the politically-infused and morally-provocative Sideline magazine, but he hasn't been personally involved in its production in some time.

Calder has a long list of strained and long-ended relationships, be it friendships or committed quadrant relationships. Judging from the old portraits of these old friends and loved ones on the walls of his hive, Calder may be lingering on these old relationships.

Relationships

Murrit Turkin

Murrit does not like Calder at all. Murrit makes a huge point of annoying or ignoring Calder whenever possible, even basing his "love" and persistence of enjoying hentai to mock his male-centric ideals and hoity toity attitude. Conversely, Calder is frustrated with Murrit's refusal to behave like a proper sea dweller, and regularly tries to boss Murrit around, even though he at one point deeply respected him.

Occeus Coliad

It has been shown that Calder and Occeus have had a, now-ended, pale relationship with one another. Currently, their relationship is very terse and strained. Calder still keeps pictures of Occeus on the walls of his hive.

pliableDecadence

Calder and pliableDecadence were previously in a kismessitude. Prior to the end of their relationship, she used to push Calder to try new hobbies to get out of his own head. Calder still keeps pictures of PD on the walls of his hive.

Arcjec Voorat

Calder and Arcjec were once friends in their youth, but that doesn't appear to be the case anymore.

Laivan Ferroo

Similarly, Calder was once friends with Laivan Ferroo.

Ellsee Raines

Calder is generally dismissive and disrespectful towards Ellsee, as he is with most of the female cast of Vast Error. He constantly talks down to her and treats her as an incompetent stooge, unwilling to let her prove otherwise.

Ellsee simply sees him as a chauvinistic prick, but isn't petty enough to leave him out of the loop when she has important information.

Trivia

  • Calder is similar to Equius Zahhak along with Eridan Ampora and his dancestor, Cronus Ampora of Homestuck. Like Equius and Eridan, Calder is a highblood who is obsessed with the pecking order and ruling over the lower castes. Like both the Amporas, Calder is pretty terrible.
    • Like Equius, Calder often concerns himself on whether other people are acting properly within their caste.
    • Like Cronus, Calder picked up a supposed vice to add to a certain image, but ultimately misses the point of actually partaking in that vice (Cronus started "smoking cigarettes" (he's just putting pieces of his old wands in his mouth), but never actually lights them since he feels like it would be a waste; Calder likes to hold and swirl wine but despises the taste.)
  • Calder appears to be loosely based on a number of chauvinistic, misogynistic and bigoted male archetypes and tropes, and is most frequently associated with the Men's Rights Activists group when discussed in fan discussions.
