Ardata Carmia is a blue blooded troll living on Alternia during the time of Joey Claire's visit.

Her sign is Scormini, sign of the Martyr, which has a Derse sway and is bound to the Doom aspect.

Concept and creation

Ardata was designed by Angela Sham.

Ardata was first revealed during the Hiveswap Troll Call event alongside Marvus Xoloto. Her bullet points were "bloodthirsty on main", "probably vriska”, and "fresh to death sentence". Her bullet points were altered as from December 2018 to “bloodthirsty on main”, “makes her own capes”, and “small business owner”. She was one of two trolls, alongside Marvus Xoloto, not to have her sign revealed on her Troll Call card.

Etymology

Ardata is the name of an Elder god, sometimes called the Spider Queen in the Malazan Book of the Fallen series. Ardata could also be split up into the words "AR" and "data", which are both related to technology and could be a reference to her business. Carmia is Hebrew for "song". Carmia could also be a play on "camera", a corruption of Carmilla or an anagram the name of the font used to introduce the names of the kids' and trolls' Planets during the game sessions in Homestuck, Carima. Carmia could also possibly be a play on “cara mia”, an Italian pet name akin to “my darling” used notoriously by Gomez Addams for Morticia Addams, the latter of whom Ardata shares a hairstyle and fashion sense with.

Biography

In Hiveswap: Act 2 Ardata appears on the train's blue car. She stands outside her room waiting to be approached by Joey and Xefros; she offers to let them into her room, though if they agree a Game Over triggers and she presumably kills them. Later, Joey comes back to ask her for help getting a costume; she offers again, but Elwurd intervenes.

Trivia

• Ardata's quirk is similar to another Doom-bound troll's, Sollux Captor.
