I HAVE THE FINAL TWO HEARTTALE DESIGNS‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️
After nearly a whole Week, the final two characters and two redesigns are DONE!!!
First we have Undyne, Head Of The Royal Guard and Alphys' soon-to-be girlfriend :3
Like in canon, Undyne met Alphys in Waterfall, snapping her out of a trance where she was seemingly staring contently into a black tar pit at the bottom of the Waterfall. Alphys and her have drifted apart due to their work but still keep in touch via Undernet! And if you're wondering, Undyne does Not know that she's still a Royal Scientist. Alphys makes it sound like she got fired after an incident but was allowed to keep her lab, when in secret she's still working on the Amalgamates.
As you can see, Undyne is not only another character with a darker color palette, but also pretty beaten up < :3 that's due to her fighting humans and training with Asgore.
The now Enraged and Revengeful King would often push Undyne to her limits physically in fights, to "toughen her up" when another war inevitably breaks between humans and monsters again. He even uses his fire abilities to "make her immune to fire" since Asgore believes that the humans still wield magic, and the magic-less humans will wield arrows and sticks of fire to burn monsters. The darker spots on her body are burn marks, and her hair covers a large burn mark injury, which caused her to go blind! The burn marks on her side were from a training session and her attempting to protect her other eye.
She is...not okay with the idea of leading the Royal Guard and killing humans, feeling as though not Only is she abandoning her morals but betraying her own kind by killing humans. She originally joined to Protect monsters and humans, not Hurt them...which gives her more of a reason to constantly make sure Papyrus never joins.
And speaking of!!
THE LOVEABLE PAPYRUS!!
Sans' little brother and Snowdins' "protector", Papyrus is very sweet to everyone he comes across! He always wants to help and often partakes in community events
And like canon, he's a bit too trusting, but not naive! He can tell when someone is lying or not telling the truth, and he'll call you out on it! Not in a mean way, but to let you know so it can help you! He does tend to not pry if the person doesn't budge, but always has an ear ready to lend if someone needs to talk! He has a soul of gold :3
And just like in canon, he wants be apart of The Royal Guard! But he doesn't seem to understand what it actually is thanks to Undyne lying.
Unable to tell Papyrus the truth, Undyne says The Royal Guard finds, houses and protects fallen humans, and no matter how difficult or boring she tried to make it sound, Papyrus just wanted to join more, which lead to her giving Papyrus "training", training as in improving his food, cleaning, and stuff, in usual Undyne fashion (they both wrecked her house multiple times from intense cleaning training). She says he has to do this since he might house a human at his place or need to take care of the human himself if the human is younger or elderly.
This is all to postpone Papyrus from actually signing up, knowing Asgore would most likely accept him due to The Royal Guard not having too many members, and she doesn't want someone as nice and caring and Papyrus to go through the same training She did or kill humans. Roy Guards in this au are seen somewhat negatively due to them killing humans and abandoning the Underground's culture, but none of them really had a choice. She doesn't want Papyrus to get hurt, or hurt other humans, or be silently shamed like she did.
On a lighter note, Papyrus and Sans still share their brotherly relationship like in canon and Papyrus is Snowdin's local aroace iconic :3
LASTLY WE HAVE A REDESIGN OF ASRIEL AND CARA :3
Asriel only had a few Minor changes in regards to his colors while Cara had a major overhaul! They now look more like the images of the first fallen human! Their backstories are still the same, but I do wanna talk about the Frisk/Chara Soul/Narrator Chara theory and the Genocide route :3
Iirc it's canon that Chara and Frisk share a soul, with Frisk might even being a reborn version of Chara while they're deep within Frisk's consciousness, and bc of that they narrate the story and dialogue boxes as "Frisk's inner thoughts". That's the same here! Cara and Frisk share a soul due to Frisk being a reborn version of Cara, and Cara narrates/makes notes of things but Frisk is never fully aware that they exist until Genocide.
As known, Flowey (Asriel) tries to stop Frisk from going to the surface by killing Asgore themselves, whether to save their father from an fate like that or to prove themselves Useful so Frisk didn't kill them is unknown but it ended with them dying anyways. And Chara makes Frisk erase and reset the world to save it. Here it's the same thing but instead of the usual "I'm You" dialogue, it's. Different.
Cara. Is Distraught over Frisk killing everyone in the Underground. Friends, family, neighbors, everyone. With the exception of Alphys as she was the only one who truly escaped Frisk's wrath. (plus Blooky, Mad Mewmew and Annoying Dog bc Of Course he lives.)
Cara yells at them, screams at them. Why did they do this? They're hurt but in turn they killed so many people just to cope, and now there's nothing Left, and it's all because of Frisk.
Instead of Cara taking their soul, in grief and guilt, Frisk pulls it out themselves to give to Cara to erase the world, realizing what they did and how they don't deserve kindness or a happy ending, but the others did. They deserve another chance.
Cara, seeing that Frisk does genuinely feel horrible about what they did, gives them One more chance. They'll erase the world back to what it was once, and give Frisk another chance to set things right, but if they do the same thing again, Cara will erase the world permanently.
And that's hoe True Pacifist begins :3
I ALSO HAVE A HEIGHT CHART THAT MAY OR MAY NOT GET CHANGED :3
Now not all of the designs or stories are Final, especially Papyrus' design as I do feel like he could use more Pazzaz, BUT That's all of the main cast done!!!! I would...love to hear who your favorite character is so far among this crew and the info I've given you since I started sending these-I love hearing people yap about my characters :3/nf
I hope you like the designs and lore either way!!!
UNDYNE AND PAPYYYY!!!! :DD
(They both some of my favorites, i love them dearly ^^)
Their designs are so cute/ cool (even if Undynes scars af caused cause of Asgore.... He's now my #1 opp >:(((( /nsrs)
Chara looking more like the images of the fallen human looks really neat! Frisk feeling guilty about killing everyone and chara giving them a second chance is really nice too (love characters getting a second chance and redeming themselves ^^)
THANK U FOR MORE UPDATES TO YOUR AU (even if the story and their designs are not completely finalized i still love it ^^)
