Today is technically Quercus and Oak’s birthdays (cause they’re both the same person).

So here! Please see this drawing of Oak I made about a week ago-

I have NOT colored with colored pencils in YEARS. I tried to shade and stuff and it turned out ok.

Anyways happy Thanksgiving to those who celebrate it!

(Don’t worry they put the fire out)

Frigid (left), Glitcher (small child in middle), Drop (adult in middle), and Oak (Right) all belong to me!

I need to make references of Drop, Frigid, and Glitcher so I can share them!

So my brain did not register at all yesterday that it was UT’s 10th anniversary despite many of my notifications mentioning it lol-

So happy 10th anniversary Undertale!!

I finished this drawing for the occasion because Oaktale was the first AU I made.

I also made a short story based on the artwork (which is below the drawing)!

“How are some silly stars able to make anything better?” Quercus questioned. He seemed unimpressed with Outertale, clearly wanting to leave. He looked the same as Oak, same brown jacket and beige fur hood, same light green scarf shaped as an oak leaf, same brown shorts and green boots, just… paler… and with a slash across his ribcage. Oak didn’t know how Quercus was even able to exist, but then again the multiverse and its AUs were full of surprises!

“It’s not the stars that will make things better.” Oak answered. He looked at his pale counterpart to see he was looking back at him. His eyes showed annoyance, probably because of Oak dragging him to the AU, but Oak could clearly tell that he was in pain. Of course, he already knew why. They shared the same backstory, both were caught in a genocide run and were killed. But only Oak experienced that, Quercus was just a manifestation of Oak from that timeline. They only shared the memories.

“So then why are we here?” Quercus questioned.

“To take a break, to relax.” Oak said.

“Shit like that is pointless,” Quercus looked to the rocky surface of the small rock they sat upon. Oak turned to Quercus and spoke.

“Listen, I know the pain you’ve gone through. I’ve experienced the same, because we are the same. So please, let me help you.” Quercus stood up and gave Oak an expression filled with frustration and pain.

“What makes you think you can fix the past?!” Quercus shouted.

“I can’t. But it’s always possible to lessen the pain.” Oak explained. He desperately wanted to help him, like he’s helped many other characters with similar experiences. Oak stood up and added.

“If you can just let me help you, we can-”

“Shut. It.” Quercus stated. And with that the last thing Oak saw was Quercus teleporting to who knows where.

After processing what had happened, Oak teleported from Outertale and to Stonefrosttale.

FINALLY IM POSTING ABOUT THEM :D

I’ll post about my other two AUs at some point in the future.

These two Sanses are from my first AU Oaktale which was created back in (I think) mid 2021 and has changed quite a bit from when I first made it.

I’m ok with people shipping Oak and Quercus with others AS LONG as it’s NOT with minor (child) characters AND/OR NSFW.

So I’ll give some info about Oak and Quercus!

OAK

Height - 4’11

Age - 26

Pronouns - He/Him

Birthday - March 1st

HP - 5

Attacks/abilities - Original Sans’ moves plus abilities from The Great Oak

- Oak is an out!code, but remains in his AU unless he’s needed.

- He’s able to sense when there has been a RESET after a genocide run that wasn’t planned in the timeline in any AU. He’ll do his best to help the ones that know about the RESETS recover from this experience.

- He knows which Sanses know about the RESETS due to his father (Oaktale Gaster) having years of info about various AUs.

- Oak has known about the AUs since he was a child.

- He used to have 150 HP, but an incident in Gaster’s lab caused his HP to permanently lower to 5

- He has a leaf from The Great Oak embedded in his soul

- To explain, The Great Oak is a partially sentient being that has leaves that can grant someone a long life. In addition, it also gives the ability to help nature thrive which takes energy from the one using the ability. You can only get a leaf if the tree deems you worthy. Unlike other trees, the tree naturally produces sap that can cure sickness and injuries to a certain extent.

- Oak knows Drop, Frigid, and Glitcher (my other AU characters)

Attacks/abilities - Original Sans’ moves plus abilities from The Great Oak

QUERCUS

Height - 4’11

Age - 26

Pronouns - He/Him

Birthday - March 1st

HP - 5

- Quercus is a part of Oak that was created after the genocide timeline RESET.

- Quercus IS Oak, just a darker part of him.

- He’s super good at manipulating whoever is the main character (the player, Frisk, etc.) to the point that they discover what they did, it’s too late and are forced to RESET.

- He manipulates the main character in order to create genocide timelines within the AU. He does this because he has Oak’s memories of the genocide timeline (since they’re the same person) Oak experienced before the player RESET.

- His soul is only a fragment of Oak’s. Because of this he has The Great Oak’s abilities, but instead of helping nature thrive, he causes it to wither.
