You know what, I am absolutely more than okay with this being a Classpecting blog and maybe dropping one of my numerous Hot Takes that people on the server (https://discord.gg/5BDVVeS) have come to lovingly expect.

So long as your Classpects get used for the fun and varied characters that can be made in the unique SKRUB: The Tabletop Creation Myth game system!



Let us begin.

Time is the Aspect of Rhythm, Music, Repetition, Destruction and Time itself.

The Extended Zodiac defines Time Players as those who fight, constantly, for whatever it is they wish to fight for. They will not rest. We see that in Dave and Aradia, and certainly in Caliborn. Dave was extremely goal-oriented during his session, Aradia, even if due to certain influences, kept doing… Things that vaguely assisted the session, and Caliborn just. He just went. He went and fucked everything up by doing it. To make a long story short: If you told a Time Player something can’t be done, they’ll fucking do it and spit in the face of probability with their antics.



The Prince is the Active Destruction Class. As such, the Prince’s power is to Destroy their Aspect as well as Destroy using their Aspect. The most famous Prince is Eridan Ampora, Prince of Hope, who Destroyed his species’ Hope for a new generation, in the form of the Matriorb, USING Hope, in the form of the White Science Wand. He also slaughtered many Angels on his land, due to nothing more than the Belief that it was the right thing to do. The other Prince we know of is Kurloz Makara… Let’s not. Overall, it’s hard to say anything about Princes since we don’t have good examples. Eridan was clearly not using his power as intended, and Kurloz is Lord English’s henchman so… Yeah. Princes, however, do seem to have a connection with their opposite Aspect. Eridan, the Prince of Hope, was obsessed with Science and magic’s Fakeness Attribute (Rage stuff) and Kurloz, the Prince of Rage, was devout to his cult until (and after) death (Hope stuff). It should still be noted that a Prince, internally, would still be connected to their own Aspect. Eridan was still a firm Believer in the power of science, even when it made no sense for science to cause such effects (White Science Wand) and Kurloz was so devoted to his cult because he believed it to be an absolute Truth.

I’d say Princes have a certain fanaticism for sure.



So the Prince of Time, one who Destroys Time or Destroys with Time.

The Prince of Time would likely have some connection or aspiration related to the process of Creation, likely in the form of Art. This is beyond the usual connections of Time with Music, though a heavy Musical Inspiration may be a part of it. In fact, the opposite could also be true, as their Destruction of Time could very well manifest in absolute hatred of music or musical themes. Or maybe just specifically metronomes.

One thing that can for sure be said about the Prince of Time is that they will be an UNSTOPABLE FORCE. For the love of whatever deity you hold your faith in, do not tell a Prince of Time to not do something, because beyond the Time Players’ tendency to do the impossible, Princes tend to focus hard on one certain area or belief. That put together makes a person that is likely a prodigy in their field due to sheer willpower alone. However, you may have heard that Princes can be self-destructive, and that goes double for the Prince of Time. If you let them get too obsessed or caught up in something they CAN’T do, they will forgo many essential aspects of survival (eating and sleeping are the most common but who knows) to try and do whatever they set their mind on.

Please help your poor Princes.

In a lot of respects they may seem Off Rhythm, or throw other people Off their Rhythm by being somehow Erratic or Unpredictable.

I’d say a Dr. Brown from Back To The Future is a pretty good Prince of Time.
