Welp, after Mon kinda fcked up our two Sanses decided to ask the smortest monster in the, now loving on the surface, MT Underground; Gaster!
Obviously he aint just gonna fix Timey right then and there, alsooooo experimenthing with an AU Sans and his very different abilties gets the inner hyper scientist out of him X'D
Since I can’t find neither the time or motivation to draw characters from my AUs, I will describe them right now so I don’t forget. Of course I will draw references and post more detailed descriptions of what is gonna happen in those AUs but not right now because I’m tired as fuck.
When I started this blog, I wanted to make some Undertale content and it’s still what I wanna do but in the end I did one thing Undertale related and that’s not really how I whant things to go.
In this post, I will describes my AUs and the timeline/stories that I’ve made with already existing AUs. If you don’t get what I’m saying don’t worry it doesn’t really matter bc I’m probably gonna make something more detailed later.
Also if I speak in broken english it’s normal because I’m french and I started writing this at 1 in the morning or somethin.
Also the stories aren’t in a specific order at least for most of them I just write them as I remember them.
There’s some plot twist that I don’t really wanna talk about here so it’s why some things will be resumed or voluntarely ovelooked.
Also, the stuff in brackets is the tag that I use for stuff about timelines with super long names (like for example you write fnaf not Five Nights At Freddy’s).
More under the cut because oh boy it’s gonna be long.
Killertale After The Fall (KtATF)
Linked to the multiverse
Killertale (by @rahafwabas) Timeline
This timeline covers what happens in between the moment when Chara leave Sans and Nightmare comes to recruit him.
This will be one of my first comics since it is simple (or at least I hope it will be) and it will also train myself to draw the Undertale characters. Don’t expect anything rendered correctly in this one. It will also help me seeing how much time I take to draw pages of a comic.
Killertale For Creator’s Sake (KtFCS)
Linked to the multiverse
Killertale (by @rahafwabas ) Timeline
This timeline is pretty much the same than the one up but it ends up differently and leads to more multiverse shit.
Watchertale
Happening in the multiverse
Group of characters
This is a groupe of 4 characters in charge of protecting the multiverse. They’re named after shapes that are related to their powers.
Circ (Circle), Sans, he/him, has a heavy sense of duty and is frienemies with Arr (friends until she screws up really badly or do some stupid pranks that end up in catastrophy), is at least as arrogant as Crow exept that he’s stonger than him thanks to his Sans powers.
Arr (Arrow), Undyne, genderfluid (currently she/her), doesn’t take anything seriously and never gets angry about anything, likes to tease Circ even though sometimes he takes it too seriously, doesn’t really take the time to fix her mistakes because it doesn’t matter anyway.
Crow (Crown), Asgore, he/him, arrogant and eager for knowlege, takes his position very seriously, thinks he’s better than the others because he’s the king of monsters, calls everyone by their shape instead of their names (but still insist that people call him Crow), too curious for his own good, hates Circ because he’s always saying that he’s better than him because he’s a Sans.
Flow (Flower), Papyrus, they/them, are calm and often seem emotionless, realise that their job is inportant to the multiverse and the consequences that an interferance might have, do what their boss tells them to do without asking questions (most of the time).
Sentrytale
Linked to the multiverse
Undertale Timeline that happens to know the multiverse exists
Because of Flow (see above), this timeline is aware that the multiverse exist and that it is highly dangerous because people like Nightmare can just come in a timeline and kill everyone so they are protecting the universe with the help of the group from Watchertale.
They are managing the MultiNet and made it better for asking questions and detecting potentially dangerous Sanses. They also raised awareness in a lot of other timelines thanks to a show hosted by Mettaton presenting several Alternative Universes to other AUs through the MultiNet.
Toriel is still in the Ruins and has no clue what is happening
Frisk doesn’t exist
Flowey works with Alphys and everyone knows he’s Asriel
Sans also works with Alphys and everyone knows that he used to be Alphys’ lab assistant
Undyne is the captain of the Royal Guard
Papyrus is the sub-captain of the Royal Guard and is less innocent than classic Papyrus
Alphys is moderating the MultiNet and categorizes AUs and timelines
Mettaton is hosting a show presenting different AUs and timelines and got even more popular, also no one can control what he’s showing
Asgore is still the king and organizes expeditions to other timelines when they detect a problem in one.
Dusttale Redemption (DtR)
Linked to the multiverse
Dusttale (by @ask-dusttale) Timeline
I’ve always been a fan of Dusttale so it was only a matter of time before I made my own story. I want to make a comic with this story but I don’t know when I’ll start it so I will just do it when I want (I still want it to be one of the first comics I draw because I tend to lose interest in doing stuff if it’s alrady fleshed out).
This timeline was originally supposed to be about Dust finding some sort of redemption (hence the title) but it’s more how Sans came to the idea of killing everyone and what happens once he succeded in doing this.
Undertale Void (UtV)
Linked to the multiverse
Undertale Timeline
Tell the story of Undertale characters from different timelines who all fell into the Core, some instead of Gaster, and some after him. In order of fall into the Core: Gaster, Sans, Alphys, Papyrus, Undyne, then another Sans. They all have specific powers thanks to the Void that they all live in. They can travel to other timelines but Gaster forbids it because it can have major consequences on said timeline.
I have no idea how I want this to end and it’s kinda old compared to the other stuff so I have no idea if I will post the story here.
Undertale Horror (UtH)
Cut from the multiverse
Undertale and Horrortale (by @sour-apple-studios) Timeline
The only Undertale story of mine (or at least I think) that has OCs in it (not alternate Frisks or other Undertale characters, original characters). It tells the story of Frisk who left the underground after a neutral run, which, as everyone knows, is the beginning of Horrortale. Liliana (first OC), falls into the underground and, with the help of Gwen (second OC), manages to make a Reset and convinces Frisk to do a pacifist run. So everyone starts to live happily at the surface, but things gets worse when some people start to remember what happened before the Reset.
This is one of the stories that I like the most and that I’m the most enthusiastic about even though I have no idea how this is gonna end. I know that I will make it into a comic but I want to do KtATF and DtR before and I hope I will make it before I lose that enthusiasm because that would kinda suck.
Undertale timeline 2737 (Utt2737)
Cut from the multiverse
Undertale Timeline
This is my take on the characters origin and their evolution (especially Sans’ (in case you didn’t know or haven’t noticed most of my AUs are Sans centric even though I often try to balance it out with other characters) but the evolution is for pretty much every characters). I think it will also cover what happens after Frisk leaves the underground (neutral timeline with random actions). I think I will stop with Frisk’s arrival but I’m not sure so I’ll keep writing shit.
Cardtale
Background AU
Already existing concept (aka Cardtale) remaster
The concept of “taking Undertale characters and turning them into cards” already exist, same for the name. I just thought that it would be fun to make my own version of it.
I wrote this AU like a game, which means that there is no special story about it, but I might use it in my multiverse story as a random AU getting attacked (hence the name background AU).
Each character of the game is linked to a specific card, and I might draw some of those cards if I don’t know what else to do.
Starvingtale
Cut from the multiverse/Background AU
AU inspired by Horrortale (by @sour-apple-studios) and partially by Monstertale (by @shnowbilicat) (also this is the name I originally wanted to take)
In this AU, monsters don’t have magic but instead have more... monstrous traits. They need more food than humans and, as they were trapped in the underground, food started to run out. A lot of monsters have died and, since they don’t turn to dust, the weakest would be eaten by the strongests.
Sans and Papyrus’ designs were heavily inspired by True Xans from Undervirus (by @jeyawue), so they have cat-like skeleton legs and tails. Toriel and Asgore have more goat characteristics and are massive (they litterally look like big squares when I draw them). Undyne also has more shark-like features. I haven’t choose a design for Alphys yet.
This AU might be used as a background AU just like Cardtale but I might also tell a story with it once I’m done with the others.
Spirittale
Cut from the multiverse
I forgot if I was inspired by something when I made this one
It’s mostly a concept and I have no real story to go with it.
Monsters are called spirits (monster is an insult). Every spirit has one or several elements that influences their powers and sometimes personnality.
Those elements are fire, water, ice, plants, poison, darkness, light, space, earth, metal and electricity. It is possible for humans, animals and objects to become a spirit under the exposure of one or several elements. Spirits can also gain elements that way.
It is common for a spirit to have an appearance that isn’t directly linked to their element(s).
Spirits of metal, darkness, light and poison are the rarest elements since they were consised the most dangerous of spirits and were almost eradicated. It is also more difficult to gain those elements.
Spirits with only one element, also called pure spirits, are extremely rare, same for free spirits. Free spirits are spirits who often have only one element and can possess pretty much any item.
The main cast’s elements (if most of them are missing it’s because I forgot they existed):
Toriel: fire and earth
Napstablook: darkness, free spirit
Sans: ice, poison and space
Papyrus: earth, light and space
Undyne: water, metal and light
Alphys: electricity and fire
Mettaton: electricity, free spirit
Riverperson: darkness and space
For now, this AU’s just a concept (just like Underfell or Underswap), and I have no idea if I will tell something with it.
Infectiontale
Cut from the multiverse
Inspired by every zombie story ever
In this AU, there’s a sickness that decomposes the body of people who are infected by it. Since people thought more monsters had it compared to humans, they locked down every monster and every few infected humans they found. There is no actual cure for this but the king of monster is determined to find one.
Sides effects include general hunger at first stages, hunger for meat in middle stages and for humans and monsters at advanced stages. It also slowly decomposes body pieces, separates the skin from the bones and makes infected people bleeding almost constantly.
From middle to advanced stages, the infected person may have a hard time remembering who they are and keeping control of their body and instincs. It is also at that time that the sickness can be transmitted through any corporal fluid, most common being blood and saliva.
I don’t know if I will make a story out of it but I have some ideas that I might developp later.
Underfantasy
Cut from the multiverse
Inspired by diverse mythologies
Monsters are replaced by different fantastic creatures. Unlike Undertale, there was two wars inter-species: the war in between angels and demons wich made angels lose their powers and dissapear and almost killed all the demons, and the war in between humans and monster wich ended with monsters trapped under a giant dome and humans trapped underground. Both monsters and humans suffered heavy losses during the war, in consequence there is about 5000 humans and 7500 monsters left (those numbers are random and will certainly change for plot convenience).
The Dreemurr family are centaurs, the skeletons are demons, Undyne is a mermaid, Alphys is a small dragon and Flowey is a blood flower. Those are the characters that I currently chose a specie for.
I’m as enthusiastic for this AU than for UtH and I think there is more story for this AU than any other AU I’ve made (at least for now).
Bloodlusttale
Linked to the multiverse
Inspired by Lusttale (by @nsfwshamecave)
The story is pretty much like Lusttale’s exept monster didn’t have a problem with reproduction, but with combativity. The first human to fell in the underground had a soul with the bloodlust trait that was later injected in every monster to increase their strength. This AU shows similarities with Underfell exept monsters don’t fight to kill but rather to prove their strenght or humiliate their opponent (also for sadistic pleasure).
Only adult monsters are injected with Bloodlust but most parents already had Bloodlust in their veins before their made kids, so this trait got transmitted to most children as well.
Having scars is considered as a weakness because it shows that you lost a fight, so the more scars someone has, the weaker they’re seen by the other even though it might not be true.
Mettaton is hosting a show in wich monsters fight each other, sometimes almost to death, and so monsters can satisfy their thirst for blood by watching TV instead of by constantly engaging fights with their neighbours. Even though most monsters come to fight on this show for fame, bloodlust or the prizes (mostly Gold), some are kidnapped by Mettaton’s employees when they refuse to come fight in the arena (it happens with strong monsters or those who are said to be strong so that it brings more spectators and participants on the show).
Underlight
Background AU/Linked to the multiverse
Inspired by nothing I guess
In this AU monsters are very similars to robot (exept they have emotions and need food just like humans) and cannot die with age. They also need Light to live, wich is produced by “living beings” such as humans, animals and plants. Since monsters don’t produces Light, they aren’t considered as living beings by most people.
Golden flowers are the main source of Light and light and are used in lanterns. They are also one of the only plants in the underground since some expeditions have been made to the surface to bring living beings who produces light.
This AU is very medieval-like, by that I mean that they don’t have access to a lot of technology and most monsters grow their own food.
This is a background AU for a multiverse timeline about my own version of Empireverse in wich an Undyne and a Sans go out of their timeline to fight with the Sun and Moon empires.
Underfeel
Cut from the multiverse
Inspired by... Ink and his emotion vials? (honestly idk for this one)
Underfeel is an AU that is extremely similar to Undertale exept that soul traits are replaced by emotions and that the colors of what I plan to be a comic matches those emotions. Also, emotions can give you powers if you’re in a magic environment or have magic at your disposition.
Frisk’s main emotion, or at least the one that they always use, is hope, and grant them wings.
Each feeling is associated with a color, and color schemes follow those (or at least that’s what I want to do).
For now, this AU’s just a concept, just like most of my AUs.
Underrain
Cut from the multiverse
Inspired by the song Can’t stand the rain by The Rescues
In this AU, monsters are entirely made of water and live in an area surrounded in high freezing mountains and were it’s always raining. Not a lot of people believe that there are monsters there because no one bothers to go and try to explore this area, since it’s highly dangerous and would take way too long. Also, you can’t see anything from the sky because of the clouds.
Every monster wears a mask which is like their family name. For example, monsters from the same family will wear the same type of masks, and married couples can choose to take the same mask as their partner or to take a new mask type.
The most expensive masks are those who can perfectly replicate the wearer’s facial expressions and change their appearance to fit perfectly their look. For example, Asriel’s mask allows him to look almost like the one from Undertale and almost doesn’t show any watery part.
One of the worst things that can happen to a monster is degeneration, wich means that monsters can have too much or not enough water, and that can lead to their death. They can also start to fuse with other monsters, soak everything around them, evaporate when there isn’t enough rain or simply “melt” when in contact with water.
For now, it’s only a concept AU, and I don’t have any satisfying idea of a story I want to go with.
Underelements
Background AU
Inspired by Spirittale and Underrain (yes I got inspired by my own AUs WAT YOU GONNA DO BITCH)
In this AU, monsters are spirits, just like in Spirittale. There’s three kinds of spirits: water, fire and wind spirits. There’s also earth spirits, but they call themselves humans. Earth spirits are also the only one who call other spirits “monsters”.
The differences in between the different kinds of spirits are their colors (skin, eyes, hair, etc.), their mindset and culture, even thought those are generalities and don’t apply to every single spirit of said type.
When two spirits from different types have a child, this child might be one type or a combination of their parents’, same for their powers. They will still be labelled as one type according to their personnality even though their appearance might be a mix of their parents’.
Frisk is an earth spirit, Toriel is a fire spirit, Napstablook is a water spirit, Sans a wind spirit, Papyrus a fire spirit, Undyne a water spirit, Alphys a fire spirit, Mettaton a wind spirit, Muffet a wind spirit, Asgoreis a fire spirit, Chara an earth spirit and Asriel a fire spirit.
Fire spirits’ colors tend to be red, sometimes purple or cyan, wind spirits’ are light cyan and blue, sometimes pink, water spirits’ are blue and dark cyan, sometimes green or turquoise, earth spirits’ are yellow and brown, sometimes red. Of course, it’s more detailed than that, but I’m not sure about precise colors so here’s an overview.
I have no story to tell with this AU so it’s just a cool concept I like and the opportunity to create new species.
Admintale
Cut from the multiverse
Inspired by Sans’ capacities to use debug commands in the original Undertale game
Monsters are humans that have developped powers that allows them to hack reality and laws of physics, and they call themselves “admins”. Most of them change their appearance to go to places frequented by other admins, and change tyhemselves into the original Undertale characters, hence the name “monsters”.
At first, they were tolerated by everyone because no one knew they existed, but then people started to be aware of their existence and to distrust them. Slowly, the government started to vote laws against them, until being an admin became a crime punishable by the death penalty, or at least that’s how I want the story to go (if I ever write it).
Every character’s real appearance is pretty much their Humantale/Overtale form, and their “monster” form is the one from Undertale.
Every admin has different powers that they can train to gain new ones.
I have other AUs on my computer but or I don’t like them or they’re too old for me to remember the details or they’re too small to do something about it or they’re just old and cringy.

yaaay
- The contest will end on May 10th, 2017 at Midnight EST time. Winners will be announced the next day or two after.
Please at least read through the rules section before submitting.
The Monstertale world was created when a flash drive of games was unintentionally introduced to a computer hosting an advanced artificial intelligence. The flash drive just so happened to also harbor a virus that almost immediately grew to rival the artificial intelligence in strength. This dangerous combination caused the original Undertale game to be shredded into pixels. What remained in the black void was one of the only characters capable of fighting the virus, now gifted with sentience.
Spending months alone in the darkness, with nothing more than his own fleeting thoughts and empty memories, Alpha eventually began to create a new world, corrupted and dark and nothing like what he imagined. But what he created was not a world of living, thriving creatures. He created a dying world, where every monster has a limited number of resets before they're permanently erased.
Including him.
As a living person in the real world, you have a crazy amount of control in the monster world; everything from who lives to who dies, to what your avatar looks like, to changing Alpha's personality completely, depending on your actions.
And now we want to give you the opportunity to put your own original creation in the Monstertale world.
There are many different regions in Monstertale, which are notably known as "Biomes" that are separated by extreme firewall doors, requiring keys to be granted entry. For the sake of this contest, we will only be opening a few for submissions, and each Biome name may or may not be it's final name. A list of Biomes you can submit a monster to in this contest are as follows:
1. Snow Biome - Village of krýoméros. Thick snowy forests and vast fields, seperated by floating islands of varying sizes. Surrounded by the vastness of the void around it. Monsters here are accustomed to the cold, and limited light. Monsters here are also never dangerous, and are more intelligent than much of the rest of the world.
2. Water Biome - A region that covers a good 40% of the entire map by itself. Everything here is accustomed to the dark caves and illuminated waters of the underground, that usually stream from the hidden ocean deep within. Everything here glows somehow and is accustomed to the almost constant darkness.
3. Mainframe Biome - The center of the world. This place is littered with robotic/android-like monsters. Generally made of metal, or synthetic fibers, and lots of wires, these monsters usually, but do not need to, have important jobs around this region, tending to important machines and computers that require upkeep and constant reprogramming, due to the virus.
4. Ichor Biome - Monsters here have a strange composition, and sometimes 'bleed' data from their orifices. Some species occassionally radiate a darkness that devours data around them. This is one of the more dangerous biomes, though the danger is not always intentional.
Important DO NOTS:
- We can not accept any characters that are similar to original Undertale characters. This includes no AU OC's that resemble original UT characters either.
- If anyone is caught submitting more than two monsters with other accounts, they will be forfeited and reported to DA.
Important DO'S:
- Submitting a concept art piece of your monster is required. It doesn't have to be good, but if you think you can't draw, get someone who can. This is required.
- You may include what biome you are submitting to, but this is not required.
- You may include any other details about your creation that you wish to share, but this is not required.
- Each person can submit, at most, two monsters, however only one is necessary to enter.
- Try to be original. New and inspiring ideas are where it's at.
General Info:
- The contest will end on May 10th, 2017 at Midnight EST time. Winners will be announced the next day or two after.
- The number of winners depend on how many monsters are submitted and how many best fit the Monstertale world.
- Winners are chosen by the discretion of Monstertale's creator, Edissero (elli-leimone), and the help of her team. The winning monsters will be chosen depending on how best they fit into the world and can be utilized in the story.
- First Place Winner may also aquire a free, Official monstertale poster (Release Date To Be Announced).
- Key note 1: The constant theme of Monstertale is a sci-fi, cyber-grecian setting. You'll see Greek and technological influence through the entire game. Two other common aspects you will see are crystals, and then disease and illness,which may be observed in the Monsters Astrocytomas and Tinnitus. Your monster is not required to fit these themes, but it may help you win.
- Key note 2: Any monster is capable of being infected by the virus without a moments notice. Though not necessary, it may be fun to think about what your monster would be like when infected, which generally amplifies their looks and abilities, taking on a redish hue. However, please submit monsters before infection, for a better chance at winning.
- It is crucial for you as a submitter to understand that if you are a winner, that certain aspects of your monster may or may not change, which includes the name, the stats, or any other info given about the monster, including what it looks like. <b>You</b>, however, <b>will still be credited for the concept art</b> like every other concept artist on the team, in the Art book and in the Monstertale Comic and Game.
