CHARACTER Name: Gamzee Makara Canon: Homestuck Timeline: Pre-Scratch, pre-sobriety If playing another character from the same canon, how will you deal with this?: Previously played Gamzee and Bro at the same time; they don't interact at all in canon and should there be a reason for them to interact in game, it'll be done off-screen.
Personality: Gamzee’s Trollian handle simplifies his personality almost completely: terminally capricious. That is, Gamzee is prone to abrupt changes in his mood and behavior. There is a direct correlation between his changes in mood in his sopor supply.
Sopor slime is a green substance that is in Recuperacoons, which are troll beds. Most trolls know that the slime should never be consumed because it does “weird things to a troll’s head.” Unfortunately for Gamzee, he did not have the best Lusus in the world. Instead of looking out for him and teaching him the essential things he needed to know, Sea-Goat spent most of his time out at sea, leaving Gamzee to fend for himself. Because of this, Gamzee began making pies out of the sopor slime at some point in his life. The result of consuming the slime made him the equivalent of being stoned. When he is in this state, he is more relaxed and laidback.
Gamzee is devout to his Juggalo-esque religion, in which he prays to the MIRTHFUL MESSIAHS and awaits the Vast Honk, which would be the rise of the band of rowdy and capricious minstrels on the paradise planet that doesn’t exist yet—with music, faygo, miracle appreciation and copious amounts of special stardust.
From his perspective, the world is full of miracles. From the carbonation in soda bottles to the technology that allows him to communicate with his friends through the computer, everything is a miracle. He chooses this blissful ignorance over learning the truth because it takes away his miracles, as he explains to Karkat:
CG: IT'S CARBONATION YOU IGNORANT DOUCHE. CG: TRY GETTING SCHOOLFED SOME TIME INSTEAD OF SLURPING DOWN THAT WEIRD SWILL ALL DAY AND FONDLING YOUR STUPID HORNS. TC: No No BrO, i DoN't WaNnA kNoW, dOn'T eVeN tElL mE. TC: kNoWiNg ShIt JuSt StEaLs Up AlL tHe FuCkIn MaGiC fRoM mY mIrAcLeS lIkE a MoThErFuCkIn ThIeF. TC: AnD tHaT aIn'T cOoL.
In this sense, Gamzee does not adjust well to change. For example, in the post-scratch timeline, the combination of running out of sopor slime and Dave showing him the ICP video, “Miracles” was enough to completely push him over the edge. That was when he realized that many things he believed in were a lie, down to coming to the realization the sopor slime was bad for him and that he was both of the messiahs from his religion.
Gamzee’s clown-loving and other eccentricities aside, he has a good personality and a caring heart. He knows that what he believes and feels is perhaps unconventional but, “i'Ve gOt tO BeLiEvE At wHaT My hEaRt tElLs iN Me, EvEn iF It's a fAkE ThInG“ Friendship is very important to him—he is constantly checking up on his friends to make sure they’re okay. (Such as Karkat, whose insults he takes with a grain of salt because that’s his best friend.) In the case of them being upset, he tries to help, although his advice tends to not be useful at all, as it usually boils down to waiting for a miracle. His intentions are sincere, though.
From the point he is taken from in canon, he will still have had some sopor slime left to sate himself, and it'll be handwaved for him to somehow stay that way, whether his high simply continues by some miracle or by other means. As Bard of Rage, he has the potential to be dangerous to anyone without it.
