every maid and sylph in homestuck resurrected from a death that they should not have been able to revive from
aradia: dream self/god tier
kanaya: rainbow drinker
jane: dream self lifey thing
aranea: ring of life
porrim: rainbow drinker [i’m making an assumption about how she originally awakened her vampire powers, but i think it’s probable that she matches the pattern]Huh…
Just as interesting, all of them transform-usually as a result of that ressurection–into more ethereal or imaginary-coded sorts of beings. Porrim and Kanaya become vampires, Aradia becomes a spooky ghost, Aranea becomes a true immortal.
Jane doesn’t transform as a result of her death (being a Life player gives her some more grounded but still very intense connotations, I feel), but she eventually becomes more ethereal and otherworldy when becoming a Trickster.
This association with becoming imaginary/fantastical beings is p interesting, given that both classes are linked to fairies.
Seers and Mages also have links to impossible resurrections. Terezi, a Passive player, orchestrates the revival of Vriska. Sollux somehow skirts the edge of death by ending up a Half-Ghost.
The focus here seems to be on miracles rather than solely ressurection–Rose performs a similarly impossible feat by guiding everyone through the Void–but the association with historical Prophets’ habit of reviving others/themselves is interesting, especially since it lacks the imaginary being/fairy connotation.
