Mythological roles

Each of the Homestuck Kids has a mythological role, as hinted at, during various points of the Homestuck story:


 * John is The Heir of Breath
 * Rose is The Seer of Light
 * Dave is The Knight of Time
 * Jade is The Witch of Space

These roles imply that each character can manipulate an Air, Light, Time respectively Space. The only confirmed such manipulative power at this point in the story is Dave's power to manipulate time using his Timetables. Two of these titles (The Heir of Breath and The Seer of Light) are in direct correlation to their bearers associated classical element (Air for John and Light for Rose).
