So far of all the trolls we’ve met it seems like these 2 may be the worst. So far at least. Vriska is an utter psychopath who only seems to take joy in the misery of others. Also, Equius is a creepy muscle head . He's obsessed with “pure bloodlines”, very demanding towards others. They live close to each other and have very similar blue blood colors.

It seems they are pretty cordial with each other. Vriska has commissioned Equius to make a gift for Aradia. Equius considers Aradia a lower blood, and doesn't approve of working with her. But Vriska tells him to mind his own damn business, she had made a promise of some sort with Aradia. This present will help in the plan to take leadership from Sollux. This will in turn help Vriska to take leadership from her.

Vriska and Equius want all the trolls to be led by those of the “highest” bloods. They are exempting Gamzee who is apparently of the highest blood among them. They are also exempting the “underwater freaks”. It seems they have an agreement but don't actually trust each other.

Vriska attempts to read Equius’s mind and he in turns slaps her with her own robotic arm. He made this arm for her and seems to have control of it in order to keep her in line.

Equius is planning to double cross Vriska . He reveals the gift for Aradia is a robotic version of her. This could be handy for a ghost. He plans to deliver it himself to gain her favor and bypass Vriska in a run for leadership. Neither of them know that Aradia isn't actually leading anything. They are just wasting time.

He gushes a bit about the AradiaBot and how he’s built it to perfection. He’s creepy and Pygmalion about it. He feels that if she inhabits a robotic body then her blood will no longer be impure. In a moment of creepy passion with the not yet active AradiaBot he freaks out at one of his battle bots. He smashes it through a wall and into the giant doomsday device outside.

This was a device that Vriska had built and had hanging in the canyon between her hive and Equius’s. It's called the Catenative Doomsday Dice Cascader. It looks a bit like an old board game called Trouble. This has more pop dice, and is like 60 meters in diameter. This device appears in Problem sleuth as well and is explained there. It can cause up to 50 trillion points of damage, but also only deal 1 point. It's up to luck. In this case it activates and after a lot of crazy effects, the machine just dies. But, all the jostling caused the machine to fall into the canyon. It then explodes killing Vriska’s giant spider, Lusus. Also Equius’s Lusus Author, then fell into the canyon for some reason, and also probably died.
