Name: Dave Strider
Canon: Homestuck
Timeline: Act 6, Intermission 2; Right after the suplex, but before Terezi calls them to get ready for the dream bubble. So at this update.
Canon Resource Link: Homestuck Dave Strider
Personality: The first thing you need to know is that Dave is your stereotypical cool kid. He's the type of kid you would see at school and who would be considered popular. No seriously, this kid is so damn cool that he makes the hottest Summers feel like a cool Fall with his coolness. Ok, we're getting off track.
But Dave's coolness seems to make it so he's calm and collected in any given situation. He stays level-headed even in the strangest of situations. Such examples would be SBURB or the apparent destruction of their world. He didn't seem at all bothered, but took to getting into action as soon as he could. Even the thought of time travel and having multiple versions of himself running about didn't seem to bother him so much. He was more invested in actually getting things done. This makes Dave a reliable guy. He was able to help Jade understand everything when she entered the realm. But just because Dave is usually level-headed doesn't mean he doesn't lose his cool. Although it seems that he has a high tolerance before freaking out, Dave has showed himself losing his cool. It's just, it isn't until he's lost his cool that he flies completely off the proverbial handle. Such an example was when a pile of puppets fall on Dave and he completely freaks out over it or starts to be extremely melodramatic about things. It's most likely due to looking stupid, as Dave strives so hard to be cool, looking dumb would probably bother him a lot. Usually, he keeps his nonchalant attitude in check most of the time.
Despite being really cool, or at least trying to be really cool, Dave seems to be easily influenced. Or at least, John seems to easily influence him. An example is when John mentions how creepy Bro's puppets are. Dave had never had a problem with Bro's puppets up until John mentioned they were creepy. After that, Dave suddenly found Bro's obsession with puppets to be unsettling and found them creepy himself. It could be that because Dave wants to be so cool, that he is easily influenced by other things and people around him. It could also be that despite being cool or despite thinking he's cool, he's only as cool as people think he is. Because of this, he probably gets easily swayed by the opinions of others. His want to be really fucking cool means that what people think should be heavily considered, and as his friends are important to him, what they think about things are probably important to him. He wants to be perceived as someone admirable while still someone you can relate to. His age might also be something to consider. As someone who's thirteen, you might not realize certain things until it's pointed out, and at his age, younger people are susceptible to different influences.
Dave is also rather brilliant. Of course some may be annoyed with how he thinks, but Dave seems to understand the mechanics of things rather swiftly. He has shown this since the beginning, having his modus already set and having one of the most advanced sylladices at that time. He also uses a higher Pesterchum version then John was using. His ability to learn the mechanics of things quickly really helps Jade out for example. John, who was Jade's original server player, could not continue that role at some point. Dave had Jade deply the INTELLIBEAM LASERSTATION and copy the server discs so that he could become her new server player. From that point on, he deployed the equipment she needed. Equipment that were highly upgraded, since he was farther ahead in the game then she was. Dave is one of the only kids who seemed to invest himself fully in the mechanics, being the one responsible for actually connecting their session to the troll session. Although the trolls had contacted them before they actually started the session, Dave had sent a hefty amount of Boondollars to the trolls, making them aware of their existence. His fetch modi is also based off a data structure type and he seems to be fairly knowledgeable of captchaloguing in general.
A big part of Dave is that Dave likes to be ironic. Maybe he has to be ironic. Either way, he's constantly doing and saying things for the sake of being ironic. Such cases is wearing the shades he received and drawing ironic comics, although a lot of this is also influenced by Bro, who he respects and highly regards. The gifts he's sent his friends before are supposed to be ironic, although there's a more sincere feeling to them then he lets off.
Oddly enough though, Dave can be rather forgetful. It's quite strange. Such a cool guy and being as intelligent as he is, he often forgets a multitude of things ranging from unimportant to important. He'll forget things like his place in MS Paint Adventures to even the fact that he has his timetables and can therefore travel through time. He'll even set Sylladex traps, forget them, and spring them on himself.
Dave can act like a bit of an arrogant ass, knowing that he's as cool as he makes himself out to be (he tells John to take notes on how to be cool from him) or saying and doing things that annoy others. Despite that, he's a good kid and he obviously cares for those he cares for. He obviously regards them well or he wouldn't take the time or day to contact them personally, and he's shown to care. He obviously shows that he regards John highly, as the other easily influences his own thoughts and he sometimes goes to Rose about some of the anxieties he has sometimes. He also seems to speak to Rose quite often, even if he finds her annoying sometimes. He even seems to find Jade fine, even if the way she types is usually a target for cool people to pick on. Examples would be the Doomed timeline where John gets himself killed. His alternate self had threatened Terezi to back off from John, since it was her fault it happened. Another moment is when Rose and Dave are deciding who was to go on the suicide mission and Dave volunteered to.
He also has trouble facing his own mortality. Even though he probably knew that his alternate self that was sleeping on his quest bed was doomed anyways, he couldn't bring himself to kill the alternate Dave. He also spends a good amount of time staring at another dead version of himself, who he eventually throws out his window to avoid freaking out Jade. He does freak out, himself, as he figures out how he was to dispose of the body.
So really, Dave isn't actually that super coolkid that has bitches all over him. He pretends to be, but he's really kind of dorky. He's cool in his own way, but not the way he thinks he's cool. Almost everyone sees through it too. Dave is kind of an asshole, but he's got a good heart and head on him.

Third-Person Sample:
He's not sure if he'll ever be able to apologize to Jade. As he sat up, he glanced around him. Yep. Derse. No surprise there.
Back up. Well, he just kind of died. Death via massacred by bullets. Holy shit, Jade, you are merciless with that gun of yours. Maybe he should have asked her to chill. Shit hurt like a bitch. Not that he didn't know it was coming. Of course he kind of did. Hero of Time or whatever. He kind of felt bad though. Jade didn't see it coming.
Fast Forward. Dave had drawn the map out and cut the chain attaching Derse's moon to the larger portion of Derse (nothing makes sense at this point wow). He was going to take this tumor to the furthest ring. He was gonna destroy the Green Sun. This was probably going to kill him. Shit. Not even like sloppy make-outs and he's awake kill him. He gonna die. For good. Gone. Dave Strider was no longer in the house. Or at least that was the plan until Rose knocked him out with a goddamn ball of yarn. Holy shit, who even does that?! Well...Rose. But he chased after Derse's moon like the biggest self sacrificing fucktard he could be. He wasn't letting Rose go on that trip on her own.
It was a quiet ride. Well, no. The two of them kind of got comfortable. Played some sick beats and horsed around until they got to their destination. It all went down from there. He landed on what looked to be a slab of cracked stone. So did Rose. They both were basically slabs of concrete with your aspect on them. Red for Dave, obnoxious yellow for Rose. Seriously, who even chooses these colors? He watched as the timer ticked, as the tumor was slowly counting down to detonation.
This was hitting him way too fast. They both were going to die. They were going to die because of this game. He looked at Rose. She looked back. Even behind the shades, he knew that she knew what he were thinking. Their faces were like mirror images, expressing the same apprehension. The same worry and fear as they knew this was their final destination.
He can't tell you what it's like to watching something detonate right in your face and basically being blown up. He's not sure he can remember anyways.
What he can tell you is that he's a little surprised when him and Rose emerge from the Green Sun. But he felt like he knew all this time that they were going to make it. Maybe Rose knew all along. Probably not. But their job wasn't even done and there was still more to it.
All he knows is that they didn't destroy the green sun. They created it. And that they both have finally ascended to God Tier. He looked forward, already being greeted. Aradia had been waiting. They still had a lot to do.

Powers & Abilities:
God Tier Immortality: Based on his canon point, Dave has ascended to God Tier hood. Because of this, he's a fully realized Knight of Time. He has the immortality that comes with ascending. Those that have hit God Tier can only be killed if their death heroic or just. Otherwise, they just come back to life moments after being killed.
Time Powers: Dave is the Knight of Time. His job was to travel through time, preventing the alpha timeline from turning into a Doomed Timeline. He created stable time loops in which he traveled through time. However, because they're stable, those versions of him would eventually end up being him again. If the time loop he makes isn't stable, it veers off and becomes a Doomed timeline. When a Doomed timeline happens, the Dave of that timeline eventually is killed or dies in some way. The Doomed timelines usually don't exist and the only indication there was ever one was the dead Dave that usually follows after. Short story is that Dave can travel through time. Although not shown using it, Dave most likely has the ability to freeze time for short periods of time. Reasoning that he may have this ability is because Aradia Megido(Maid of Time) had it after ascending to God Tier hood. She also plays the same role as he does, so it is likely that their powers overlap in that regard.
Flashstep: Not as refined as Bro's flashstep, but Dave has been shown being able to move fairly quickly in small distances. It's likely that, while not completely adept to the skill, Dave can still pull it off. Usually it is seen in battle and not so much as a think he just does to get around. That doesn't mean he can't do it out of battle, but it probably isn't something he cares to do without reason. Most of the time, he doesn't really have a reason to do it anyways. Flashstepping is exactly what it sounds like and probably isn't so much as a power as an ability. Dave is secretly a ninja. Obviously.
Bladekind & 1/2 Bladekind: Dave's Strife specibus. Dave is very talented in being able to use swords. He also seems to be very good at fighting with a sword, even with the blade broken. That doesn't make too much sense... His brother probably taught him how though and is usually seen using broadswords or swords of that style.
Sylladex: Like all the Homestuck characters, Dave has a sylladex. He's fairly good with it too, gloating John when he didn't know how to set his own up or having a more outdated kind. Dave has a Hash Modus, which is based on a numeric value to slot his items. He can eject them out of his sylladex and has hash raps with Bro. This is highly dangerous and probably not well advised.
Irony: The power to...be ironic. This isn't really an ability or power so much as a nuisance.

- 1xBen Stiller Shades
