Species: Error ( Skeleton )
Backstory: Ferror was an UnderFell Sans before he became an Error. He lived with his family in his husband’s home universe and for a long time was very happy. Unfortunately, there was an accident in the lab in Hotland which caused Ferror’s husband his life. Ferror’s mental condition slowly began to deteriorate afterwards, which caused him to come to the decision that he had to teach his son the importance of gaining LOVE, so that he would be strong enough and have enough HP to survive an accident like his husband’s. Undyne caught him trying to pressure his son into killing a Snowdrake and this resulted in a fight between them. Unfortunately, one of Ferror’s stray attacks took his son’s life during the fight. This caused Ferror to snap completely, coming to the decision that it was compassion that brought him all that pain and he had to become numb to it and similar emotions. He murdered Undyne, Papyrus and everyone else he could find in the Underground. Then he spent every day in the lab trying to fix and use Gaster’s old machine to get back to his own universe. When something finally happened though, he ended up in the anti-void instead where he slowly transformed into an Error.
Personality: Ferror is witty and sarcastic just as you would expect an UnderFell Sans to be. He enjoys drinking and spending time with non-Error versions of his past self. He’s a total UnderFell Sans fanboy as they have the life he wishes he never gave up. He’s willing to buddy around with others but is very wary of them. He enjoys dark humor and one of his favorite things is messing with people, mostly by giving them false information and watching the results. He despises companionship and being in range of an affectionate display causes his glitching to intensify. If he ever finds himself gaining feelings for another, no matter what those feelings may be, he panics and attempts to destroy them. All positive feelings towards other people are a threat in his eyes, so his logic is if he destroys the thing he has feelings for, he has nothing to worry about.
Powers: In addition to Sans’ normal abilities, Ferror’s body naturally produces electricity which he can use in several ways. The main way he uses it is to create orbs of forked lightning, which can wrap themselves around people and objects and paralyze them. The other way he can use it is to overload machinery, so characters like bots will have a tough time fighting him. The final way he uses it is for fun, simply by giving people small shocks because he finds it funny.
Item: The coat Ferror wears is his son’s lab coat, which he has worn since the night of his son’s death. It is considered his ‘item’ as an Error.
