== Biography ==
=== Past Events ===
Prior to the death of his father, Gaster, Motet!Sans used to be a musician that would occasionally play his guitar for others to enjoy. He studied musicology, and was one of the few people that assisted Gaster on creating the CORE. 
However, after witnessing the demise of Gaster, Sans eventually stopped playing his guitar, as well as putting his studies of musicology on hold.
=== Present ===
Some time after gaining knowledge of the RESETs that the protagonist had trapped him into, Sans forced himself into playing with his instrument again; however, instead of playing it out of passion, or joy, he only played his guitar for the sake of getting stronger against Frisk. The only times he’s played his guitar skillfully are the times where he had to duel them. 
== Profile ==
=== Appearance ===
Sans is a monster with the physiology of a skeleton, and is around average height. He has white pupils that float in the center of his eye sockets; his left eye being able to glow a bright blue and yellow hue. He also has two triangular blue marks (which are speculated to be face paint) on the lower left side of his face.
His main attire consists of a hood-less cropped blue jacket with black accents, with a black long-sleeved shirt underneath and sporting black fingerless gloves. He has black pants with two, large dark blue lines that run vertically, as well as having dark boots with blue accents. Sans will usually have his assigned instrument; a blue electric guitar, kept on his back. He seems to occasionally wear blue headphones around his neck.
=== Personality ===
Before the death of Gaster, Sans was a rather happy, and bright person. He was usually kind to the monsters around him, and enjoyed bringing entertainment to them; by playing songs on his guitar. He was somewhat similar to his brother, Papyrus, but wasn’t as cheery and energetic as him. 
Though, once his father died, Sans grew to be more mellowed down and chill. He still kept his usual trait of wanting to entertain others, but wouldn’t play his instrument for fun unless someone were to ask him to. The only times he’s played his instrument skillfully were the times where he had to duel Frisk. He was, however, more recluse and reserved, and would occasionally want to separate himself from others. 
Unlike what many may expect, he is actually a selfless, and empathic individual, that was capable of understanding most of other peoples’ emotions. Though, he can also be very vengeful, with his desire for revenge whenever the protagonist kills his loved ones always taking over his kind side. 
=== Abilities ===
* Musical Talent: Having been playing with his guitar since he was much younger; along with practicing it for a very long time, it is no doubt that Sans is capable of proficiently playing his electric guitar. His skills in playing the guitar had also allowed him to garner more and more power to stop Frisk, gaining abilities such as:
** Gaster Blasters: Gaster Blasters are large, skull-like devices that are capable of shooting out beams of energy, and are incredibly powerful as well. Sans is capable of summoning many of these entities, and are able to overwhelm his opponents. However, this attack of his costs a lot of his energy, which is usually the reason why he doesn’t use this attack often.
** Bone Manipulation: When playing his instrument, Sans has the ability to summon bones; in which he is capable of altering their size, shape, and effect. Summoning bones doesn’t cost as much energy as it is for him to summon a few Gaster Blasters, which is why he mainly uses this attack. 
** KR/KARMA: Karma is a “poison” type of effect that Sans can give to his opponents whenever they get hit by his attacks. It can hold his opponents at a major disadvantage when healing, as it is capable of reducing the healing effects of Green Magic. 
** Gravity Manipulation/Blue Magic: With the use of his guitar, Sans is capable of turning one’s SOUL blue, which allows him to project many forces of gravity onto his opponents. He can also use this ability as if it were telekinesis; being able to move objects with his magic. 
** Teleportation: By using his instrument, Sans has the ability to teleport from one location to another. 
== Relationships ==
=== Gaster ===
Gaster is Sans’s deceased father, with the two having shared a close bond with one another. Back when Gaster was alive, he had taught Sans how to play his guitar, along with encouraging him in being a musician. The two would occasionally have duets with one another, with both enjoying the other’s presence and music. 
Sans was heavily affected by the loss of Gaster, and stopped playing music, along with ending his dream of being a musician. He was one of the few people that didn’t forget about Gaster, after he had been shattered across time and space.
=== Papyrus ===
Papyrus is the younger brother of Sans, with Papyrus occasionally trying his best to encourage Sans on playing his instrument again; with enjoyment, rather than just improving with no passion. He’s also the one that would usually remind Sans to do his chores, and will often have Sans try out his foods. The two care for each other very much, despite Sans not being as open, nor bright as he used to. 
Like Gaster, whenever Papyrus had died during a Genocide Route, his death would affect Sans immensely. So much to the point where he would give up all of his hope he had for the protagonist.
