Hello, i am zekromchara, you can call me chara if you wish, welcome to my UT/DR centered blog.
any pronouns are fine, and i am an adult.
I originate form Asia so forgive me if my english can be messy sometimes ;;
I have been invested in Undertale and fanworks such as AUs for over a decade, as well as Deltarune since their release and popularity, it's had a very special place in my heart! So i wanted to dedicate an entire blog to a lifelong interest of mine.
I like to make my things organized into tags for easy searching, so here is some you can look through!
#chara inks <- this is for looking through drawings i do! I love to draw my favourite characters from UT/DR as well as especially undertale AUs!
#chara narrates <- this is for text-posts i will also specifically tag with #undertale talk or #deltarune talk if im discussing about a topic or speculation i have about these games, i won't have a specific tag for AUs.. sorry ;;
before interacting with my page please read the following rules below:
As stated before i am an Adult, therefore I do NOT want people under 18 to follow/like/reblog or interact in ANY capacity. I do not make any kind of suggestive/NSFW works but I still much rather it be that if someone is interacting it will be another adult. There are no exceptions
I do not treat this app as an social media and rather as a personal blog in it's own private bubble, so reblogs and large interaction is really troubling and uncomfortable for me, I softblock people i don't know who follow me as I am only really allowing/comfortable with it being actual people i know IRL or are friends.. if it persists i will block outright, sorry i know that's very odd but understand it please ;;
Everything I make is very self-indulgent and to my own interpretations/versions of things such as characters, AUs and ships as this is my own page afterall.. If that is not to your liking then i apologize but you are better off somewhere else..
TLDR; I want everything to stay within a bubble and remain in my own shell, I am not someone who wants to be in a spotlight. I am not a kind of person who wants to be "boosted" with reblogs or likes or any such thing.. so please keep your distance
If you've understood that then you can continue and learn a bit more about me below.. only if you want to ^^;
What about me?
As mentioned before, I have been interested in Undertale for long over a decade, and it was actually a large reason I started drawing seriously and wanted to pursue it for work.
I've grown very fond and beloved towards AUs as I love that people can make so many ideas that are so indulgent for them or are wish fufillment, I could never really berate someone for wanting to share their ideas of all these different universes (Even if many of them are focused on something such as Sans & Papyrus only)
Why the Chara theming?
To put it simply, Chara is a very special and deep-meaning character to me. I see a lot of myself in them from certain things and I wish there could have been an happier ending. I could explain it more but words wouldn't do this justice..
I adore the friendship of Chara and Asriel and wish they could have been best friends forever if tradegy didn't hit them.
As for why there is also randomly a Pokemon included, being Zekrom form Unova..
I feel there is alot that also ties into Chara, Zekron represents the Ideals someone wants to pursue, with it's story theming being to create a better perfect world; Chara themself wanted a better world, at the sacrifice of their own life so monsters could break the barrier.
I felt it was fitting..
What are your favourite Undertale Characters?
My favourite characters from Undertale are Chara and Asriel! They are the top ranking for me, embarassingly up there is also Sans as well as his cooler brother Papyrus i know those 2 would be a common pick but understand they are really interesting even if deemed 'overrated'!!
I also actually like Flowey a lot, when it came to drawing a decade ago when i was very little, I would always draw him frequently.. I know He would be ranked with Asriel but it seriously feels like all 3 of Asriels forms are seperate entities with how they behave (Just look at Hyperdeath's dialogue and appearance for example..)
I also enjoy Gaster a lot even if many of what we have 'screentime' of could be fanon for all that's known .. but i love the idea of strange scientist Gaster.. admittidly more then how much people love Sans. (Especially with the Deltarune information about Gaster...)
I LOVE Mettaton!!!.. He's so cool and handsome!! I've always loved that design since the first time i ever saw it! ;;
What are your favourite Deltarune Characters?
There isn't many characters as of right now.. and im not AS attached to Deltarune as Undertale, however I love Noelle, Susie and Kris all equally!
All 3 of them have to be my favourites of favourite for what we have so far in Deltarune.
I feel pretty indifferent to the others.. sorry ;;
What are your favourite AUs?
The AU landscape for Deltarune is pretty empty.. and i admittidly feel it would not work in the same was as Undertale with the way it's structured into chapters with an currently unfinished story.
So I only have interest in Undertale AUs.. I did have a big interest in Sans-centric AUs for a long time as they were the biggest ones, however I had interest in many other AUs.. Alot of them being from very early fandom..
Classic, Fell, Swap are still an admittidly fun time! I especially latched onto Fell when i was younger because i thought it was so cool.. and i still very much do!!
I adore the Star Sanses & Bad Sanses , the concept of it is so cool with this clash between protectors and destroyers, bringing these Sanses from timelines who were treated cruelly by the world and ended up this way fighting on a constant with a timeline of Sanses who unconditionally will protect the universe no matter how difficult it is on their hearts.
I especially have a big big heart for the idea of an entire Multiverse of AUs of different characters all interacting no matter what specific character it's centered on, the Christmas Comic and Underverse are good examples of this. It feels like playing with dolls and I love it a lot ;; Whether it's serious like Underverse or playful and contained like they are all a part of one giant house and mess around with eachother like Christmas Party.. it's great!
For AUs of other characters, I enjoy AUs involving Chara a lot. Any kind of AU about them I am onboard with; Chara being the one that is Alive or suddenly in Frisk's place such as in Underswap, or being more involved with the world around them outside of a unearthly presence.
I think you know quite a bit about me just form this alone!.. So i'll leave it at that! Please have fun, and respect the rules I've put, okay?
i unfortunetly have been stalling on drawing on many of my blogs because of my excessive burnout.. but i swear i will feed krusie and keiselle nation as i've seen many people sad recently.. i also want to draw ralsusie at one point!!
Does anyone remember the gamedev 'JCSoft'? they were first popular for their really silly fnaf mobile games, but they had this 'triology' of "undertale inspired" games, did they ever finished the third one? I was actually way too invested in this guys games as a kid.. I liked how they all followed the chinese year animals consistently for their main antagonists ;;
The second game even had a dedicated 'genocide route' where you literally pick up a knife that resembles the real-knife as well as the bullet hell segments of the games being you as a heart having to move around.. some people said that the antagonist of the first game was inspired by asriel especially in it's facial expressions..
There was also this one-off danganronpa inspired game if anyone also remembers that though it's not relevant to this account haha..
after some trial and error i have finally something to show.. its a wip of my noelle design, i just had to clean up the sketch a bit so now i will apply color (lineart is still bit messy but who cares!!..)
how am genuinely looking in the reflection of my mobile screen trying to draw UTDR when im no longer in my prime of drawing it in the mid and late 2010s
This one is a very minor spoiler BUT IT IS STILL PRETTY BIG TO ME SO
So.. is this not just STRAIGHT UP CONFIRMING THE "Sans is from Deltarune" THEORY??
This to me starts to also re-contextualize Sans' deja vu and knowledge of timelines in the Genocide route a LOT.
I don't believe Sans is a "he remembers every timeline" guy, but the fact this card has travelled to Undertale with him.. what if he DID have very vivid memories of the Deltarune timeline but forgot them overtime, hence why he has the ability of a strange Deja Vu in the first place. And that he has looked at the "don't forget" text as now being something completely different, to remember his time there.
i unfortunetly have been stalling on drawing on many of my blogs because of my excessive burnout.. but i swear i will feed krusie and keiselle nation as i've seen many people sad recently.. i also want to draw ralsusie at one point!!
so... that new chapter. my english won't be able to give it justice but here we go!..
COMPLETELY UNFILTERED SPOILERS FOR CHAPTER 5 WEIRD ROUTE IS BELOW.
The lake scene might have been what is singlehandedly putting Weird Route above the original Undertale Geno Route for me, Toby's writing from UT compared to DR is incredible.
This really shows the consequences of what we've done so far and how our choices have made an impact on everything.. even if these characters are not real and it's just a fictional story this might have been the first time in WR I genuinely wanted to turn back and didn't know if I could feed my curiousity further.. it took me over 10 minutes after it had all finished to really process what happened.
The scene being sunset, where the expression of Noelle's overworld sprite is completely casted by a shadow making her unreadable, only for the sudden switch of thpse sprites with the shaken voice. It shows that she was pushed to a point of no return after the events of Chapter 4, no longer is she trying to plead or discuss a way out. no longer is she thinking that the person who must have done all those things must have not been Kris, but she is convinced that Kris CHANGED. and that Noelle CHANGED too.
Treating the events no longer as a real horror story unravelling before her, but like a saving grace. It's the complete opposite of the normal route of Chapter 2 where Noelle learns to be braver after telling Queen what she really wants and trying to speak for herself in the chapters following it such as defying her Mother to continue speaking with Susie and confessing to her.
Instead she believes THIS is what is granting her Freedom. That we are "SAVING" her from being trapped in this cycle of her life of just being Noelle, and she is beyond estatic about it in the most broken and twisted way. She wants to be the one to push instead of being pulled, She wants to be the one to listen. It's haunting seeing such a stark contrast between who Noelle was prior to who she is now became after her small time of 'escaping' this path when Kris took off the thorn ring.
When she talks about what Kris and her wished to do as children, wanting to cross the lake.. that brief moment of recalling on something innocent in childhood only to suddenly take that and turn it into what proceeded to happen right after.
It was the most distressing scene I had seen, the more you press proceed the further you go in.. I was fully expecting them to have been caught by Susie and interrupted the moment they went in the lake, but it got deeper and deeper. And Noelle got more and more desperate, the hurt sounds playing over and over as the screen whitened and Noelle's expressions becoming more twisted and blurred as you try to make out what she is saying, it's too late to turn back as you can only PROCEED. eventually even the thought of going back is completely LOST.
Noelle evidently doesn't want to drown despite all of this, despite her pushing, she begs Kris to hold her hand, begs us to keep telling her to proceed so she won't be scared, as though she NEEDS it to keep going. And throughout this entire encounter there were many points where she was not even speaking to Kris, but instead in her MIND as shown by the brackets, she KNOWS we can listen and she uses it to her full advantage in the lake to beg us over and over to say it louder and louder and louder until we get to whatever could be on the other side.
And just like at the beginning of the chapter, where we are completely shoved out of any of the Dark-World or RPG segments because of our actions, we don't know what will happen to them... until the final chapter. It's a long uncomfortable wait to make us process everything that has been done. everything WE done.
I also want to talk about the 'aborted route' some people find it strange it ended so abruptly. But i don't think so.. Noelle's reaction is almost haunting, after the thorn ring being forced back onto her she seemed to have entirely given in to whatever is going on. wanting to "do something crazy" because of a feeling creeping up inside of her that she WANTS to do this. And that it must have ACTUALLY been Kris and not another person speaking through them who wished her to "get stronger" as she did prior in Chapter 2 & 4. She believes Kris has changed, and that she also has changed, but upon being told no. She changes the script, she still pulls them further into the lake, she WANTS TO Proceed and isn't reacting kindly to a sudden switch in plans.. but then.. she just.. gives up.
Everything going through up to that moment, was it worth anything? did she really change? Is Noelle really just a Noelle doomed to never be anything else? Was the path to walk away from all of this always there? And we don't see her face at all. She does not even talk to Kris when she (presumably) dragged them back as they were both drowning.
People think this means that the route has been aborted but still went through with damages... however, the jingle from the previous routes doesnt at all play when you abort the route, we didn't stop Noelle we just DELAYED her. There is a chance she is only remaining docile as her mind is processing all of this.. that she has only 'given' up for now and she could really "do something crazy" now that she has become unpredictable and even controlling of our actions in return..
I havent posted here a while but im also a bit embarassed by the art here because ive been trying to improve in little ways and it makes me even more embarassed knowing inused to draw undertale near everyday so i have no clue how i degraded this bad!!..;;
i seriously love just how much the fandom has developed with their ideas of blueberry / swap sans (for people who either treat them as one entity or seperately) it makes me seriously happy, especially with people integrating him more with the star sans trio as back then people didn't do much with him as his power level wasn't on par with Ink or Dream, but now im seeing such incredible designs of Swap/Blue with his own signature weapon thats 4x his size or being able to match up with someone far larger or powerful then him when people make their version of swap sans super small and it just is so cool ;;
im so happy, the magnificent sans is now able to finally show his magnificence!..
i havent drawn any deltarune/undertale characters in such a long time that they all look a bit scuffed and i seriously hate it, i want to redraw the chara art I just did but I won't improve unless I continuously draw and develop like i did 10 or so years ago ;;
did anyone remember this very old mobile game known as deadtale? i remember playing it when i tried to find if i could somehow have undertale on mobile a long time ago since there used to actually be a few fangames on IOS and Android.
It was this game where you could be Undertale and different AU characters and chat to people (i maybe saw roleplays??) and there was even minigames like where you can fight sans and stuff. It was an app for android from my memory but it suddenly dissapeared one day..
