Canon • 
Dubiously CanonMarsti Houtek is a rust blooded living on Alternia during the time of Joey Claire's visit.
Her sign is Arittarius, sign of the Astronaut, which has a Derse sway and is bound to the Void aspect.
Concept and creation[]
Marsti was designed by Poinko. A placeholder name for her seen in leaks was "Scrubber".
Marsti was first revealed during the Hiveswap Troll Call event alongside Karako Pierot on March 7, 2018. Her bullet points were "didn't choose the scrub life. the scrub life chose her", "practices self-care" and "bath bombardier". Her bullet points were altered from December 6, 2018 to "Likes to clean", "Doesn't care if you think she's basic. In fact, it may be you who are basic" and "Esoteric medical knowledge".
Etymology[]
Marsti name means 'purification' in Sanskrit,[citation needed] befitting her job as a cleaner.
Houtek could be a variation on of the word houdek, a type of soil only found in South Dakota.[citation needed](also... why?) It might also derive from the comet Kohoutek, which was promoted as the "comet of the century" but fell far short of expectations, its name becoming synonymous with spectacular duds.[citation needed]
Biography[]
This section is a stub. You can help MS Paint Adventures Wiki by expanding it. In particular, it needs citations.In Hiveswap: Act 2, Marsti is still cleaning during her trip on the train. She blocks Joey and Xefros Tritoh's way, and only lets them pass if they have a good reason. When they tell her they need to get medicine for Skylla Koriga's lusus, she reveals she was only joking and lets them through.
When Joey returns to the rust car for ingredients to make art for Remele Namaaq with, Marsti provides her with some garbage.
