if I lock in, maybe the end of next week. if I don't, maybe a few. but I know it'll eventually come out in December somewhere.
Don't worry, we see your error asks, and we will get to them when he does come. however, we want to get other cool things come out for you first! that way, seeing other eventual cool characters will be really exciting.
I like to think that amount of time spent on drawing the comic irl is the amount of time Nightmare spent in universe frantically searching for Error lol
“WHERE IS HE??? HOW DID I LOSE AN ENTIRE DESTROYER???”
*Paperjam comforts him by eating all his paperwork and getting ink stains all over it because he does not get fed
OK OK SO RECENTLY I’VE BEEN GOING INTO PEOPLES BLOGS WHO DRAW MY LOML SWAP SANS AND DRAW FANART BUT I FELL IN LOVE WITH THIS AU LAST NIGHT I DREW THIS AT 6 AM HAHAHA KILL M-
Hey guys! Shroomie here! So I've been seeing a lot- And I mean A LOT of long posts here on Tumblr. I'm new to Tumblr and am more used to quick content platforms like Tik Tok but if yapping in long posts is allowed here? Then shit, grab a chair becuase I'ma bout to explain EVERYTHING — without spoilers.
Eveything after this line is just me yapping about all that's happened in Polystar so far for anyone who is new or just needs a little more clarity on it. I will also be featuring some FAQs!
WHAT IS THIS BLOG MAINLY ABOUT?
Polystar ask blog is mainly around the main ship, the Polystars themselves, but it is also its own world and Multiverse. All characters you see featured in this blog will have altered designs, stories and personalities. This is most prominent in the main cast. Background or side characters will have less variety (like Swap's Papyrus)
All interpretations and alterations of Polystar characters from the original are done for the sake of interpretation and they are purposefully detatched from their originals by design so they do not get confused. Any headcanons in Polystars, though heavily inspired by canon, should not be taken as canonical to the original creations unless stated otherwise by the creators.
Boring stuff out of the way...
Polystars focuses on a few different casts of characters:
Polystars — Dream, Ink, Swap and Palette
Afterdeath Family — Geno, Goth and Reaper
Nightmare's Empire — Nightmare, Paperjam and in the near future, Nightmare's Gang
Time to catch up on lore for each of em!

Dream's story, while similar, is quite different when ti comes to characterisation. Dream's original AU, Dreamtale, is now dead, but Dream still holds on to his culture and the customs of his village in both what he wears and what he teaches Palette. His village was not perfect— far from it, but he tries to maintain the traditions he finds important without the cruelty that caused its downfall in the first place.
He's a lot taller than the original Dream, getting a bit of a growth spurt when the balance in the Multiverse was restored, and he tends to be a bit of a worry wart, especially when it comes to his family. He's the voice of reason in most situations and can be rather timid when it comes to affection and expressing himself.

Fun facts about Dream:
He can speak Spanish! It's his mother toungue. he had to be taugth English by Neil before leaving Dreamtale
He's naturally very nurturing and tends to hog Palette by accident
He has a pet name for everyone in his family; Ink is carinho or mi artista, Swap is amorsito or mi cielo, Palette is mi bebè.

Ink mainly takes canon facts into consideration in his story. The main differences in him are mainly in his design and way of speech. He's an energetic optimist who loves to see the creativity of those around him and manages to find a bright side to almost any situation. You will very rarely ever see him cry.
He loves his partners deeply despite not feeling emotions in a conventional sense and trusts them. He is in the aro ace spectrum and allows himself to be playful and at ease with his partners. While out on the job, he takes on a slightly more serious persona but remains overall playful and attentive to the AUs
Fun facts about Ink:
He can speak French and sometimes switches languages when he doesn't notice (especially when excited)
He got the scar on his skull from an accident while collecting red paint—
He has a scrap book of Palette and his development aswell as a family album he keeps. He likes journaling with many textures and colours.
He has a pet name for everyone in his family; Dream is mon soleil, Swap is mon ciel, Palette is mon chouchou.
Ｓｗａｐ
Swap has a lot of my personal headcanons on him so he ended up looking pretty different— He's an an official member of the royal guard (An apprentice under Alphys) along with his brother, Papyrus. He's he most easily scarred due to his reckless behaviour ad the intense attacks they deal with day to day. He's very cheerful but has a bad habit of not really looking out for his own self preservation, only the safety of others arounnd him.
He has a special ability called 'Hyperfocus'. It's the equivalent of CHECKING an enemy. You can tell when he is using this ability because his eyesockets will turn yellow. Overall, he's a very optimistic person who makes sure Ink and Dream keep up with their health and are well taken care of. He was the last one to join the Poly but first to fall.
Fun facts about Swap:
He is the Medic of the Star Sanses and knows a lot of first aid adn emergency proceedures from Undyne.
He's very proud of all his battle scars!
He designed his own 'battle body' and maintains it himself
He's physically the strongest but magically the weakest.
ᴘᴀʟᴇᴛᴛᴇ
Palette is the child of Dream and Ink. His lore is mainly original in terms of backstory but his personality and characterisation will take inspiration from the original.
He originally was a shared dream between Ink and Dream but one night, their magic and intent fused to create the lil cutie you know today. Dream and Ink don't fully understand why Palette formed the way he did but they love him nonetheless
Fun facts about Palette:
He's turning one soon! How exciting!
He is very jealous of toys and possessions.
He's obssessed with bunnies
He has invisible markings like Ink's that glow when he uses a lot of magic!
He doesn't need vials to feel
Palette isn't a smart cookie but he's just happy to be a cookie

Dream and Ink were together first, Ink being the first to confess. They raised Palette with the help of Swap for the first few months but [SPOILERS! COMIC TO BE DRAWN ABOUT THIS. POST WILL BE EDITED!]. Their relationship is a secret to people outside of their family for their own safety, though they did get married after Swap joined the relationship. They didn't have a big ceremony but they're okay with that.
They raise Palette with equal authority and are a triad!
FAQs
Do they get jealous?
How was Palette born and what is his dynamic with Swap?
What about Swap's mortality?
What was Palette's first word?
What was it like before Swap joined?

Geno is Dream's closest friend in Polystars due to Goth and Palette being so close in age. He raises Goth alone due to Reaper's restrictions in his own world. He struggles with parenting Goth, juggling his grief and the wellbeing of his demi god kid the best he can. He lives in a small secluded AU Ink found that could support his glitched code without him dying.
Geno cannot freely travel between AUs and relies on the Stars to do so. Because of this, he cannot visit Reaper himself.
Fun facts about Geno:
He likes the attention he gets from Reaper but is too bashful to show it
He has no idea Goth is so intelligent
He tends to be very impatient but well meaning
He likes to dress himself up in different styles.
[̲̅R][̲̅e][̲̅a][̲̅p][̲̅e][̲̅r]
Reaper is mostly absent in Polystars due to the conditions put on him by his world. He can only visit Geno and Goth one day of his chosing per year. The day he chose was Goth's birthday so he wouldn't miss out on as much of Goth's development as he can.
He misses Geno gratly and cherishes his family more than anything in the world. The gods of his world are very dear to him and despite their strictness, he still cares for some of them. He originally was trying to reap Geno's soul but [SPOILERS! COMIC TO BE DRAWN ABOUT THIS. POST WILL BE EDITED!].
Fun facts about Reaper:
He has feathers like a crow that need proper care
He can turn into a crow!
He can float and does so to tower over Geno. The height difference between them is not as big as it may seem (though Reaper is still taller)
His wings and feathers are pleasantly cold
𝕲𝖔𝖙𝖍
Goth was born with the intelligence of a teenager due to being a demi god. However, he still has the emotional maturity of a baby. He struggles with the knowledge he can't exactly understand. He hates Reaper because he associates Reaper's presence with Geno's grief.
His opinions of Reaper were further worsened when Reaper missed his birthday. He sees Palette as a dear friend and is entertained by him despite his lower intellect.
Fun facts about Goth:
He loves doves
He still fusses and cries like a normal baby despite his intelligence.
He can't fly or transform at the moment but will be able to in the future
He's an albino crow
𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐑𝐞𝐥𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐬𝐡𝐢𝐩
Geno and Reaper have a very healthy dynamic with Reaper being very affectionate and Geno being very logical. The unhealthy aspect comes from the distance between them and the strain of parenting on Geno. Geno feels rather neglected, not only having to spend his birthday alone but also with Reaper missing Goth's birthday, he feels worthless.
Dream helps grounding him while Reaper's brother keeps him focused on work until he can see his family again. They both miss eachother greatly.
FAQs
Why is Reaper absent?
Why is Goth so smart?
Why does Goth hate Reaper?
What does Goth think about Palette?

In Polystars, Nightmare's personality and characterisation is mainly personal headcanons. He's cruel and cold, his main goal being to continue toying with the Multiverse and bring his brother to ruin. He doesn't necessarily want to defeat his brother— then their game would end. He wants to continue this push and pull of balance forever
He sees Palette as avermin and is repulsed by the idea that Dream used to be his 'brother'. He cares for no one but himself and only uses people for their money and status.
Fun facts about Nightmare:
NO YOU MAY NOT DATE HIM
He can control how much light and darkness he emits
He sees Palette as an unfair advantage to Dream, nothing more.

Paperjam was created after a battle between Ink and Error, unbeknowst to both of them. He found his way to Nightmare's castle and imprinted onto him. He's mostly in a very goopy state but [SPOILERS! COMIC TO BE DRAWN ABOUT THIS. POST WILL BE EDITED!]
He is mostly just wandering about but Nightmare seems to have found a purpose for him...
Fun facts about Paperjam:
He's indestructible in his goop form, which he can switch between
He can make strings like Error
He has three toungues
There's not much to him yet but he's just a baby—
