BRO STRIDER[]
The Ultimate status of Dirk Strider reveals to him the lives and memories of all available timelines, prominently including all bad ends, good ends, neutral ends, and of course, Bro timelines. Let's be real though, a Bro is a Bro.
This Bro, however, isn't just your ordinary Bro. Trollian moderator Bro Strider is a 2D and 3D artist, leaving him to not be too active on the site all the time. His work can be seen on Tumblr, Furaffinity, and Deviantart under his username Heartcade, and is prodominantly furry in nature. A smuppet fan to his core, Bro would also like to work in making plushies and fursuits one day, though being born in Detroit, his wallet says no.
FICTIVE STATUS[]
Bro is a member of a system, and albeit being the primary fronter, is not the original. Real name William Afton, Bro is a fictive of the character 'Springtrap' from the series Five Nights at Freddy's, and deals with memories of that lifetime alongside his present-day PTSD. Although friendly to sourcemates, Bro is from the Silver Eyes novels, and as such has issues relating to most of them.
OTHERKIN AND MORE[]
Bro's primary kintype at present is of course, Dirk "Bro" Strider, but he is also kin with Vriska Serket. There are also feelings about Sollux Captor and Kuprum Maxlol present, though whether they are cameo shifts or something else has yet to be determined. Among his non-homestuck kintypes, Bro is also kin with Nagito Komaeda, Wadanohara, Asriel Dreemurr and John Watson. No, not that one, the anime one. There you go. Having been in the community for years, and having begun research as a child in the early 2000s, Bro has extensive knowledge of the nonhuman and plurality lexicons, and is open to help explain words and phrases to people new or outside of these communities.
