Player: skarme
Canon: Undertale
Canon Point: No Mercy end
Alignment: Peromei
Date of Entry: 10 Nov 2015

---

Age: Skeleton; sounds and sometimes acts like an adult in at least mid-late 20s
Birthday: 31 March (headcanon, but also arbitrarily reassigned ingame)
Eye Color: White, usually - small points of light inside his eye sockets
Hair Color: Skeleton
Height: Slightly taller than a preteen human child, somewhere below 5'
Amulet: A very small, jagged lump of crystal that could easily be mistaken for any old shapeless bit of rock. Usually in his pocket, under his sleeve or otherwise out of sight. His original amulet - a round crystal set in what resembled the outline of a silvery goat skull - was almost always kept out of sight, and is now gone.
Appearance: Sudden. A short, big-boned skeleton. Did I mention skeleton? Tends to wear baggy clothes. Always wears a grin.
Profile: Application and headcanon history (major canon spoilers in both!)
Contact: blitzente or PM

Background: Former citizen of a sealed-off kingdom of monsters dwelling just below the Earth's surface. At home he worked as a sentry, ostensibly patrolling a remote snowy forest for fallen humans but really just killing time. He's close to his brother, a more excitable skeleton of equally ambiguous age.

Personality: Despite his mischievous streak and overall laziness, a friendly and generous soul. Enjoys pranks, bad food, worse puns, car magazines and science fiction. His dedication to slacking off transcends time and space. Sees a lot, but rarely tells anyone anything.

Abilities:

Like most monsters, physically weak. (A monster's body is made primarily of magic and contains little physical matter.)

Attacks by summoning bones and manipulating gravity, but preferably not at all. See app for spoilery details.

Can eat and drink just fine. (Ordinary monster food is also made of magic and converts directly into energy when eaten; food in Empatheias is more physical, but for convenience I've been handwaving that the residual emotional energy of the cook/farmer/etc. is close enough.) The physical matter just falls out through his bones.

Tends to show up where you don't expect him.

Might lean on the fourth wall.

Particularly keyed into the body language of time travellers, murderers, and time-travelling murderers.

Permissions for actions done by this character:

First of all, the nature of Undertale means it's best to play the game knowing as little as possible. For anyone who wants one, here is a handy dandy little form to make it easy for you to opt out of game spoilers (or from threads with this character altogether).

<b>SPOILERS PERMISSIONS</b> <b>Name:</b> Your name. <b>Character(s) | Journal(s):</b> Character's name | <user name="journalname"/> <b>Tags?</b> Y if you're fine with threading with this character, N if you aren't. I won't take offense! <b>Spoilers?</b> Y/N. Feel free to specify further if you want (eg if you're following an LP that hasn't finished the game, if you're avoiding a certain route, if you only care about major plot elements, things like that).
Undertale is also pretty self-aware - characters can and will get up to all kinds of meta stuff in the name of comedy or plain messing with you. Sans in particular acknowledges things like stat screens, character kill counts and characters' time travel experience at various times, based almost entirely on body language and behavioural tells. If that sounds like something you might want to play with, go ahead and use this form too! If you'd rather not, I'll default to not using anything that isn't given in the thread itself, so don't worry too much about it.

<b>META PERMISSIONS</b> <b>Character | Journal:</b> Character's name | <user name="journalname"/> <b>Metaphysics:</b> Does your character have experience with death and resurrection, time travel, parallel worlds and the like prior to entering the game? Do they behave different in any specific way because of it? <b>Characters' sins:</b> What sorts of things has your character done? Do they have any specific physical/emotional tells because of it? <b>Characters' UIs:</b> Any (other) stupid videogamey stuff that it would be okay for this character to pick up on?
Please don't feel like you're restricted to those forms, either! Let me know if you have any issues at all.

SPOILERS PERMISSIONS
Name: Ryn
Character(s) | Journal(s): Ed, YOU KNOW HIS JOURNAL, and Steven (this journal)
Tags? Y
Spoilers? Y. I'm fully spoiled. So Ur good.

META PERMISSIONS
Character | Journal: SAME ONES NERD
Metaphysics: The crystal gems don't really die, when they're given fatal damage they poof into their gem shape and take a few days to reform. So uh, sort of yes sort of no to death.
Characters' sins: Steven is about as pure as pure can be, to be honest.
Do I really need to tell you the garbage Ed's done?
Characters' UIs: Anything you want to pick up on with Ed tbh you have full permissions with him

As for Steven, he's only half human for one but all of his abilities are based around defense and healing. His shield is for defending, so is the bubble he can make, and his spit (lmfao) can heal gems and humans alike.
