Line 6:
Every sprite can be prototyped twice, which adds the properties of the second object onto the sprite and, if the second object is/was alive, overwrites the personality of the first object with that of the second. Prototyping twice is optional and can be done both before and after entry into the Medium, but a sprite ''must'' be prototyped at least once before entering if the session is to be successful. Whenever a prototyped sprite enters the Medium, its properties are transferred into the "prototyping" towers of [[Dream Land|Prospit and Derse]], which shares the properties among the game's [[Mooks]] and the [[Requisite Royal Regalia]] wielded by the White and Black Kings and Queens<ref>which can be used by an Prospitian or Dersite should they get ahold of them, which is where the problems with Jack Noir begin</ref>. Additionally, the prototyping allows the Skaia Battlefield to develop, evolve and become ready to bear the universe the players are destined to create. As such, if there are no pre-entry prototypings, the game becomes [[Unwinnable]].
 
=== All the sprites are examples of: ===
 
* [[Back From the Dead]]: A sprite uses the form and memories of a deceased individual to create a trustworthy companion for its owner. Based off the ultimate fate of Jadesprite, it seems that prototyping a corpse as sprite actually brings it back to life, as Jadesprite serves as a living dream self for Jade's ascension to God Tier.
Line 36:
Her [[Alternate Universe|Post-Scratch]] incarnation is [[Homestuck/Characters/Post Scratch Kids|Jane Crocker]].
----
* [[Eye Beams]]: A Shale Imp winds up on the wrong end of this [[Never Mess with Granny|when trying to steal cookies.]] They can also be used to [http://www.mspaintadventures.com/?s=6&p=002743 levitate objects, heal people] [https://web.archive.org/web/20130921161947/http://www.mspaintadventures.com/?s=6&p=003049 and write].
* [[Familiar]]: She's obviously tied to John, and gives him advice and aids him in combat. She fits the role of one, at least, the other Sprites are similar in nature.
* [[Fan Nickname]]: "Nannaquin," after the music theme of the same name.
* [[The Hyena]]: HOOOOOOOOOOOO HOO HOO HOO!
* [[Leitmotif]]: [https://web.archive.org/web/20130922085551/http://homestuck.bandcamp.com/track/nannaquin-2 Nannaquin].
* [[Like Brother and Sister]]: Betty Crocker tells Nana that she and Grandpa were supposed to get married but it's not clear if they ever felt like anything other than siblings.
* [[Mission Control]]: For John, after he gets past the first gate.
Line 101:
** After his defeat by Bec Noir, he's missing his sprite form's sword and has a bandaged, bleeding wound [[Irony|in the place where it would normally go]].
* [[Insistent Terminology]]: He get quite peeved if you imply he's not the real Dave. At first, anyway.
* [[Leitmotif]]: [https://web.archive.org/web/20130922103210/http://homestuck.bandcamp.com/track/davesprite Davesprite].
* [[Not Quite Dead]] / [[Disney Death]]: A conversation between Dave & Terezi in Act 5 and both [http://www.mspaintadventures.com/?s=6&p=004828 feathers] and [http://www.mspaintadventures.com/?s=6&p=004829 his pendant] left at the site of their duel led people to believe that he was killed along with Bro after Jack Noir was prototyped with Bec. However, [http://www.mspaintadventures.com/scratch.php?s=6&p=005789 he shows up later] in Act 5 on the Battlefield with a bandaged, bleeding torso and missing a wing. By a year into John and Jade's trip across the "yellow yard", he's completely healed.
* [[Not So Stoic]]: If he's [http://www.mspaintadventures.com/?s=6&p=003592 genuinely upset at something,] it will actually show in his conversations with the other characters. He's far more sincere with his emotions than Alpha Dave.
