I kinda hope this can become a trend of sorts, I'd love to see everyone's version of Frans related content to the audio, it'd be so cute. But it also took me a good few weeks, maybe a month, to make something this simple. I haven't kept track. Maybe one day in the future I can redraw this but better. I wanted to do a different pose, before settling on this because of all the different versions of each character and I wanted to try making it as easy to follow with your eyes as possible

The colours mean nothing, it's just to make it easier on the eyes and such for people scrolling.

Please correct me if I have discredited at all, I used google for a good chunk and didn't dig that deep into the individual authors. Nor do I keep up with communities in general. I'm bad for that. I wanted to do so many more aus but ran out of audio time. I want to do more like this sometime and try doing different or more aus

I was threatened to ping some of these people and I feel bad, I'm sorry TwT It was also an added panic to find out which of these people are still active/ like undertale or Frans and which don't. I'm sorryyyyyy

I also reached the tag limit.

Chesstale by Mintsammy

[catcrashintoyhewall]

Im just going to say that:

Undernight and Chesstale have potential if the member fandom part of them is still exist.... In which pretty much the au is dead by Error sans lol

[justthemoonz]

UNDERTALE: Checkmate

This is basically a take on that old Chesstale AU from back in the early Undertale Youtube themes era Except it actually utilizes chess, but with a more interesting gameplay style You have 4 ACTIONS you can perform: > MOVE - you can select a piece to move it > WAIT - you can just skip your turn > TRICK - you can trick the other opponent into doing something at random, which is also the way you'd perform the "GENOCIDE" route, by cheating > QUIT - you can give up against the opponent, but it only works sometimes You'd also only start out with the King and a Pawn, getting more pieces the more you progress through areas and the story (However this does not apply to bosses, as you get all chess pieces there)

And if you're curious about the Sans fight... well...

Sans only has one Pawn, but it acts like a King and Queen at the same time You can't actually check it, you have to get rid of it from the board, KR also makes your time go by faster, and if you WAIT for a long time, Sans will start moving your pieces in a position he can get them himself, however you have Queens all over the board (BTW this was inspired by UNOTale and that one line from the UT Kickstarted about Toriel telling you that you should play chess instead)

[toffeebrews]

I know you're current deep into the abyss team but like....... do you know who Chess (Sans?) is?????? I don't, I just heard the name Once and upon a google saw a cool looking skeleton. I know you're the not the foremost expert on every AU out there but since you seem to like ones you don't hear about so much? Thought you might know?

I actually didnt know much about him either ngl

I tried looking, and I believe the creator of Chesstale is here. They were credited as the creator under a post. However, it seems from the posts that a lot of Chesstale had been deleted. The old creator could've changed accounts or something. I found this old amino page that I think had some info on it though. I tried to look up "mintysammy" which is who is often credited for chesstale but couldn't find anything.

From what I gathered from wikis, Chesstale is more like Outertale as it is more an aesthetic change rather than a personality-changing au. Each character represents or is associated with a particular chess piece, and sans is the pawn. The monsters and humans represent the different colors of the chess board: monsters black and humans white. Also, instead of fighting it seems you do chess games instead.

Sorry If this wasnt helpful. asjkkjsd

Underwizard alternative timelines:

Like 90% of these are angst timelines and the other 10% are self indulgent ones, sorry not sorry

Pacifist (the original one)

Future (the original but post barrier)

Genocide

Neutrals I don't think we need a list of all of them, do we?

UWU Infection Never add a U to UW. This is a post barrier timeline where a UwU virus spreads terrorizing Ebott's Town. Frisk, as the monster's ambassador, will have a lot of work to do to ensure everyone's safety from the cute virus.

REDress Previously known as the "Amalgamate" timeline, now it was completely rewritten. The families of the amalgamates took revenge on Sans and Alphys, injecting them too with Determination, melting them into amalgams as well...

War Rewind Flowey and Sans mess with the resets, mistakenly send themselves back to the time of the war between humans and monsters. Flowey dies, but Sans, adopting baby Chara to save them from their fate, allows Asriel to survive in the future and become king. Now all humans who fall underground will be treated as friends. This timeline was fairly inspired by Timetale! And also by my chats with @ask-dcf :3

Hopeless Timeline Flowey grows bored, and decides to torture Sans with Save Files and Resets to see how far that would go. The story then starts to take interesting turns as I RP it. This timeline is somewhat important so here's the latest ref sheets: [Hopeless UW!Sans] [Hopeless UW!Frisk] [Hopeless UW!Dwerby] Here's a chrono link to read right from the start! But pls note this.

Underground's Insanity Previously known as the "Hopeless Queen Alphys Timeline" (the name was too long). The genocide (?) version of the Hopeless Timeline. It begins as a Queen Alphys ending, to then take a Horrortale-like turn, with some angsty Salphys who has to face Frisk, the strongest hunter wizard to ever exist.

Gaster Gang's bio

This Bio is gonna be a bit different due to the nature of the Gaster Gang.

"The Gaster Gang" is just the collective term for the 100 Gasters that survived The Noir's rampage on the multiverse and now assist and accompany Monochrome!Sans.

These 100 Gasters are:

UT01 - 66 (Undertale)

US01 - 5 (Underswap)

UF01 - 5 (Underfell)

OT01 - 5 (Outertale)

DT01 (Dancetale)

FS01 (Fanonswap)

FF01 (Fanonfell)

UW01 (Underwar)

RT01 (Reapertale)

OF01 (Outerfanon)

NT01 (Negatale)

OcT1 (Oceantale)

FT01 (Futuretale)

BT01 (Birdtale)

ZT01 (Zephyrtale)

DrT1 (Dragontale)

CT01 (Chesstale)

ST01 (Slumbertale)

FSF1 (Fanonswapfell)

MT01 (Mafiatale)

DeT1 (Demitale)

UD01 (Underdarkness)

FE01 (Fatal Error)

They keep tabs on him and monitor him to make sure The Noir doesn't break out.

Not that it would, but just to be safe.

However, only about 10-20 of the Gasters actually follow Mono and keep an eye on him at a time.

Most of them actually spend their time living their own lives in the Omega timeline. Making friends, helping out the scientific endeavors of the OT, and just generally vibing.

Also, an extremely important note. The Gasters don't technically have actual physical bodies. They're "bodies" are moreso just metaphysical representations of their existences, and thus take no physical space. So they can appear and disappear at will, similar to CORE!Frisk.

It also means that they can change their appearance to whatever they want.

Or, in other words.

However you draw Gaster is basically canon to the Gaster Gang. They can look like anything so any interpretation you have of Gaster's design is canon to the Gaster Gang.

These designs were provided (from left to right) by me (obvs), @bigfungus7, @thetruegodofstatic, and @shigg315

The only exceptions to this are UT01 and UT66, who both have more concrete appearances they take.

Aside from that, any way you draw the members of the Gaster Gang is valid.

The format of this bio is based off of @ut-poppy-askblog, run by @fmsdraws.

This took a lot of effort to make, lemme tell you!

Glad it's finally out tho.

Also for the record, I literally own only 1 of these Gasters, the rest are owned by their respective creators/owners.

Those are: Dancetale by Teandstars  Underswap by Popcornpr1nce Fanonswap design by Bunnymuse  Underfell by Vic the Underfella Fanonfell design by Bunnymuse Underwar by BlueWolfArtista Reapertale by Renrink Underfell by Vic the Underfella Outerfanon design by Bunnymuse Negatale by ArtsyGum Outertale by 2mi127 Oceantale by Ferte Futuretale by KasugaBee  Birdtale by Greyscales Catster by Killose  Zephyrtale by myebi/comyet Dragontale by me <3  Chesstale by Mintysammy Slumbertale by Lilak-rain/RainingSkeletons  Fanonswapfell design by Bunnymuse Mafiatale by KID  Demitale by Crudaka

The Gasters have a plan.

Only one way to see if it'll work.

If you have any questions, ask away and I'll answer as much as I can! <3

Until then, this has been Dragon8er, and I will see you all Drago-l8er!

[absurdumsid]

I will get you for this!! /j

THIS ASK IS FROM LIKE JULY AND THE ART IS OLD BUT !! YEAH REAL OF YOU ITS SUCH A GOOD SONG

Chess! Sans belongs to mintysammy BSSMP! Chess belongs to uh. well hes more of an owner

[imtrashraccoon]

Obscure Anon again! This time AU version! This is asking about the Sans of the AU:

Chesttale or Underwaves?

[Who would I date?]

Hello again! (⁠ ⁠╹⁠▽⁠╹⁠ ⁠)

Okay, I admittedly know very little about either au but their designs are both super cool!

I gotta pick Underwaves. I think his name is Naut?

The eyes man... I love em! His personality is also super appealing to me. Very thoughtful and he likes cuddling? Sign me up!

I actually don't know a thing about Chesstale. Does it even have a story? Or is it like Dancetale and Outertale, being more about a cool design than anything?

[panda-of-the-trash]

When Geno got comfortable with Reaper he started flirting back

Geno, like most Sanses, like Outertale because of the stars

Geno and Reaper like to poke fun at eachother

Geno and Reaper have silly arguments about the proper foot wear for snow

Reaper, crocs aren't good for snow

Says the man wearing slipper!

Do NOT bring my slippers into this

You started it, plus I'm mostly going around bare foot

Geno likes exploring the multiverse, places he likes to go are: Outertale (obviously), Chesstale, Underkeep, Undersail (and Oceantale because the ocean), Underswap and Underfell

Geno holds Swap for hours at a time

Geno, despite being the same height as Classic, is lighter than most Sanses because of his melted bones from Determination

I LOVE THESE

here we go, jumping from a world to another.

Maddy never experienced floating in an almost complete absence of gravity. She got to Outertale and other "spacey" universes a few times, but always had something to land their feets on and walk normally. That was why, the moment she got into that weird colorful place called "Doodle Sphere" she felt pretty lost. There was no floor there, or a whatever place to stand up instead of floating. She looked down and saw what seemed an endless infinity that gave her the chills. Having the sensation of falling without ever actually doing it was terrible… The moment she remembered she were still holding Grillby's wrist, she held it tighter. Maddy focused on her mission and looked around. The Doodle Sphere was a weird place… it was colorful, but you didn't have a clear idea of the colors. They were there and you knew it, but you couldn't see where those colors were from or anything. It was confusing in a weirdly addicting way, almost psychedelic. In the middle of this, there were many floating labeled buckets filled with paint. Those were the real reason why they were here. Every bucket was connected to a universe, and the "owner" of this place used the paint inside of them to travel. Maddy couldn't travel in the same way, but she could use them as a start. "Ok, plan: we go by elimination. We start excluding the ones where Muffet couldn't be and go ahead." She explained to Grillby, but he didn't seem so fond of this plan… "we'll take an eternity, and we don't even know if there actually is every timeline of every universe in this already huge place. We could end up searching for something that isn't here. And what if Ink comes back?" he asked, again with that unreadable expression. The cat looked at him annoyedly, then said: "first: we'll surely take less time than by going by memory and checking only the few ones we know. Second: Ink is as curious as a damn child and is a control freak. He surely placed here a passage for every timeline that could be somehow relevant in any twisted or nonsensical way. Last: he's always around. He comes here rarely, and doesn't remain for too long". The fire man didn't seem really convinced by this explanation and clearly had something to say against it, but thankfully kept it quiet. Maddy wasn’t in the mood to discuss again with him. She left his wrist and started searching through those millions of buckets, marking the ones that she discarded with a pencil the cat found floating around. She moved quickly from one bucket to another, giving a look at the name they had written on and going to the next one. Underfell, Swapspin, Alphatale, Chesstale, Negativetale, Undersail… all universes with their own story and characters, but not the one she was searching for. Maddy kept searching resolutely, wanting-no, needing to find something useful. They felt the impellent need to be useful to the squad, to do something right, to not be a burden. Because that’s how she felt right now. She hadn’t been able to stop Muffet from going away, to stop herself from killing innocents, to understand that there was something wrong inside of Sam’s plans… It was all because of Sam. Everything, always. Sam put in her mind the idea, Sam guided her through the multiverse searching for Sanses, Sam forced her twice to kill innocent people who were in their way. She knew that, but also felt like one way or another it was her fault. Maddy’s hands were the dusty ones. Maddy’s eyes were the ones who saw the world crumbling around them, in part because of them, but didn’t do anything about it. Maddy’s mind was the one stressing out trying to find a solution to a problem she could have avoided if she acted more fast. In her irruent searching she accidentally spilled some paint from one of the buckets, staining her glove with a shining cobalt. She glared annoyedly at the name written on the bucket while thinking about how to make that stain go away.

DELTARUNE (Pacifist route, Castle town shortcut).

Maddy read that name a few times, just to make sure they were reading correctly. The original creator’s own alternative universe… Still a work in progress universe, with a lot of differences and similarities with the original world. A lot of creators have already started generating many worlds based on this one. The cat searched in her small mind anything particularly relevant in this world. A character, a place, an object… “GRILLBY! I THINK I FOUND SOMETHING!” she called out. The fire man, who after a while decided to search around too, floated near and looked at the bucket Maddy was holding close as she started explaining: “There is a guy who could give us a hand here. This person is-” “i know who you’re talking about and we will leave him where he is” he cut them short, not even wanting to think what would happen if they met that weird fool. Maddy glared at him with an annoyed huff, then said: “... well, if you have any other brilliant idea then speak up NOW. we have no time to waste”. As expected Grillby remained silent, clearly not having a better plan but not liking this one either. Satisfied with his silence, Maddy set to work. She never thought she would use this little trick… She took off their clean glove and soaked the tip of her index in the paint, then took it out and observed it carefully, a small slime forming in their face. She closed the hand in a fist, focusing on the thin lines of code inside of that colorful liquid that connected it to the world she wanted to reach. She then opened her hand and the lines of code appeared in front of her, clear and ordinated inside of a text box. Grillby, who didn't know about this ability Maddy had, remained quite astonished. "What- how did you do that?" he asked, a small hint of surprise in his voice. Maddy couldn't help smiling a bit at his reaction, and explained: "Sam taught me how to do this a few weeks after we started all the murdering thing. They said it would have been useful to find people hiding in worlds we don't know. It's the first time I actually put it into practice…". She focused back on the codes and started searching for a specific line. She needed the identification number of the timeline and some coordinates, so they could use those instead of an image of the place. "... Here you are, little one…" she mumbled when she finally found it. It was in the last line of code, short and simple.

"Source:Deltarune/tLine.20953/castle_town[x=0;y=0;z=24]"

Maddy memorized the string and made the text box with the codes disappear, then cleaned off her finger and put their glove back. She then held Grillby's shoulder and teleported both focusing on that line of code instead of the simple image of a place. It took a bit more effort because it was her first time teleporting in that way, but she still did it. 

The Darkners that were hanging around the center of Castle Town remained quite surprised when they saw a cat-looking monster and a fire man literally appearing out of nowhere almost a meter away from the ground, and falling down pretty heavily. Maddy mind-noted to change the z's from 24 to 23, then started walking towards the castle. Grillby hesitated a moment, evaluating the possibility of grabbing her and bringing her to a safe place to make sure she couldn't do anything stupid, but then left that plan aside and followed her. The two monsters walked through the entrance of the Card Castle, some of the citizens still looking at them with surprise or curiosity and some of them turning around and avoiding them, having a bad feeling about those two.

They reached the elevator and got in, then Maddy pressed the blank button. The two of them remained silent for a long time, Grillby looking straight into the cat’s eyes. She knew what that look meant. She saw it already at least ten times, even if usually it was used against Fresh or Muffet when she decided to do something on her own. “I’m not approving what you’re doing and I'll follow you only to make sure you don’t get yourself killed” was the meaning of that look. The last time he used that look on them was the time when, that one day where Muffet was weird and Sam sent the two of them alone to mission, Maddy decided to go and simply kick the Sans’ butt without a real plan. “Alright, shoot. Tell me you don’t approve my plan, that you would have done differently and that you have a better plan. I’m eagerly waiting, especially for the last part”, she suddenly stated, glaring at him back. She knew he wanted to tell her how many leaks were in their improvised plan because he didn't want her to get hurt, but she couldn’t stand a person who kept complaining without actually offering a solution. The fire man remained silent for another moment, and something in their expression changed. He then looked away and started: “I'm sure this is a bad plan that you made in a few seconds; I see a huge possibility of starting a massive disaster; we will probably end up wasting time… but right now I have to admit I couldn't have done any better”. Maddy couldn’t help grinning at his sentence, happy to finally hear something different than criticism from him. “ok , ok… this is a good start. Next time try to realize it sooner, tough” she commented, half forgiving him for being a depressed jerk. The elevator finally reached the destination, and the two monsters walked to the cell where the most free jester was sleeping.

... the cat actually convinced him to act...
