Note: Before I link my samples, I want to add a note. When I began playing Dualscar at Vatheon, we had not yet seen Cronus in Homestuck. Accordingly, I developed Dualscar purely with reference to Eridan's personality and extrapolated from there.
When Cronus was introduced, I was pleased to see that my interpretation of Dualscar answered well with the way Cronus was, and I didn't have to throw out my headcanon. However, there was a major difference in quirk. As such, the quirk shown in these samples will not be exactly the way I will play him at Ruby City. I will be using Cronus' quirk, with vw and wv, I will not be dropping terminal g's as Eridan does, and but I will use proper grammar and capitalization in text posts, because he is an adult, though Cronus and Eridan both use all lower case.
Otherwise, you can take these samples as an accurate reflection of how I intend to play Dualscar in Ruby City. Personality-wise, he's the same.
And just to show his quirk, because I'm lazy but I happen to have this available, which I wrote for another app that didn't work out:
Bonus Sample
[The video has obviously been staged. Dualscar stands before the camera, in full battle regalia. His armour has been polished - by Eridan, most likely - to a high purple sheen. His fins are hung with gold rings, and his fingers glitter with rings as well.
He folds his arms across his chest and inhales]
People of this prison vworld, I'm here to address those vwho, like me, vwhere abducted from your owvn hivwes. I'm not in the least bit interested in hearing from our prison guards, or the current 'rules' of this freakish place. So listen to me, prisoners.
Vwe may not vwant to be here, but here is vwhere vwe are, and vwhere vwe'll stay until vwe find a vway off this messed up vworld. There are many dangers here, including vwarious monsters vwho periodically decide to attack the place.
[He leans in closer]
There must be one or twvo of you with courage. I'm Orphaner Dualscar, a General of the glorious Vworld-conquering Alternian Empire. I havwe extensivwe military experience, and leadership ability. If you're vwilling to risk yourselvwes, I vwill lead you to glory.
I propose creating a militia, to protect the city. [His violet eyes glitter. Is that really what he is proposing? A militia? Or is he looking to create his own personal army, to rival that of the city's?] This is our home until vwe can escape it. Are any of you courageous enough to followv me into battle?
Vwe'll see.
[He clicks off the video, but there's a locked text message communicated to Eridan alone]
Eridan, meet me at the usual place. It's time for you to begin your intensivwe military and leadership training. You'll be commanding the second platoon, after all. Assuming enough of these filthy aliens is vwilling to accept the leadership of a Vwiolet-blooded troll to MAKE twvo platoons. If not, vwe'll have to devwise another plan to topple the Emperor.
