[ no, really. trolls his age have killed and whatnot already. combat is how they thrive. ]

[ more than what he's done. Karkat buries his nose into his scarf at the question. caste... well it's not really a secret and he's kind of learning to deal with the mistake in his genetic code. ]
Caste is determined by blood color. Trolls have pigmented blood. Rust red is the lowest on the spectrum while violet is the highest. Tyrian is the ruling caste. Tyrian and violet bloods are sea dwellers... Blood color also determines life span...
[ Karkat glares at the street, ears tinged pink in embarrassment. ]
The reason I'd be culled on sight is because I have a mutation. A lack of pigment.
