@@cameron-yo6zp well karkat had cherry red blood, which was described as being the human blood colour, and had to hide it for fear of being culled so we can take a guess at how high it ranked.

[@cameron-yo6zp]

@@lara8866 Well burgundy is the slave caste and fuchsia is highest royalty, so he's either worthless to the empress for being less than a slave and therefore a waste of resources or he's above the royalty and therefore now in charge, so we can understand why.

[@Graest]

Some people have difficulty with being their true selves, possibly out of inner insecurities or because they have a brother who encourages them to wrap up what they feel in layers of untruth. Looking at him as a character, starting out that was gives him room to grow. And I think he does, and will, throughout the course of the story.
