i don't even know how to be coherent with this sobbinglyism
however, i will do my best--
A little while ago, Dave-mun linked me a hilarious thread in which Dave and Vriska had a sloppy alien makeout session filled with insults and hatred. I read it and was like, "Ohmigosh, this is so amazing. I wish I could play in this game." And he said those fateful words: "We don't have a Karkat."
And I was like, "I want to try playing Karkat in a game. And this game looks absolutely amazing. Oh my god, don't tempt me."
There was temptation.
I didn't stand a chance.
There is no regret.
So you are part of the reason I am here. Hurrahhh.
Into characterization itself: Your Vriska is amazing. One of the things I love about Homestuck RP is that it gives the players extreme freedom to be as hilarious and creative as they can possibly be. A few people drop the ball-- Most other canons are pretty strict and don't allow for that sort of freedom, so it's understandable. But you've got that creativity down perfectly. Vriska, like in the canon, forcibly grabs the spotlight and hogs the fuck out of it. While we miss a lot of that due to Homestuck's format (like not getting to see much from the troll session), you expand on it here in the most awesome manner imaginable. It makes Vriska more dynamic-- we see when she's sad or scared or confident and cocky, and we see a lot more of it.
There are so many times when I'm just staring at a tag from you like, "HOW DO I COMPETE WITH THIS AWESOME. OH MY GOD KEYBOARD SMASH AS MUCH BULLSHIT AS POSSIBLE AND MAYBE IT WILL BE COHERENT."
