After like three months of working on this, I've finally finished my sprites for Underswap Toriel!
Similarly to in Undertale, Toriel is a bit of a shut-in, spending all her time closed off in her palace. She hasn't been seen by her people in years, with the exception of Alphys, captain of the royal guard, Undyne, the royal scientist, and Sans, her close friend and another royal guardsman. After having to kill so many human children, Toriel feels too heartbroken and ashamed and guilty to show her face to her people, so she just spends a lot of time wallowing in despair. Toriel cares a lot for her people despite being so reclusive, but the monsters of the underground are intimidated by her, much like the froggits in the ruins were intimidated by her in the original undertale, because of how mysterious she is to them and how stern she is as a ruler.
When she's not wallowing in despair, Toriel likes to spend time reading books, baking pie, tending to her bonsai garden, and talking to Sans. She wishes Alphys would ease up around her, as she does care for her but Alphys is far too much of a nervous wreck to really open up to her.
HUGE HUGE thanks to ChrisTheRaccTamer for helping me with all of the sprites, they wouldn't have turned out nearly as amazing as they did without his help. Also, special thanks to Scare#2461 on Discord, who suggested that i make the shoulder pads into snail shells, that was a really good idea on his part that i think added a lot more to the design.
And as always, feel free to ask any questions you might have about the au!
