Ancestors

Ancestors are a concept in Troll society. They are historical figures who lived centuries before the set of trolls who are followed in herostuck. Each ancestor is said to be a close genetic match to a particular troll, and young trolls believe that they are supposed to find clues about their ancestors. The ancestors are also intended to serve as role models for adolescent trolls. Each of the trolls in Herostuck shares the same symbol and blood color with his or her respective ancestor.
