Voltage!Sans

Voltage!Sans is a Sans variant created by Mandaryne. He is an Out!Code moderator who was created for the sole purpose of fixing the glitches in other AUs (Alternate Universes); similar to how a checksum may work in a program. 
He is usually the one to immediately be alerted of glitches being spawned into an Alternate Universe. When Voltage is unable to find a way to fix the glitches of the AU, he passes the task off to Error!Sans, who will eradicate the said AU after being contacted. The job of erasing an unfixable AU sort of acts like a type of beneficial alliance between the two, allowing both of them to cooperate with each other peacefully.
Another part of his job of being a moderator is to confront the Players that have hacked, cheated, or corrupted their AUs on purpose. When doing this, Voltage had to first deactivate the Player’s control (powering off the Player’s program essentially), he would then “substitute” the Player’s role with Frisk, Chara, or any main protagonist that was initially programmed into the AU; prior to having the Player take over. This method, however, isn’t exactly fool-proof, as some of the Players would eventually come back to their AUs. 
== Biography ==
In some unknown point in time, Voltage!Sans was created by an unknown entity; one that many have speculated to be the creator of the Multiverse. Immediately after his creation, the creator inputs all of Voltage’s vital information; such as his existence, purpose, and abilities into their mind for them to follow. They had created Voltage to solve a major problem that was happening within their Multiverse. 
Their Multiverse was slowly dying, as Error had been erasing an enormous amount of AUs that had little to no glitches in them; if he detects at least a single ‘glitch’ or ‘mistake’ within the AU, he will destroy it. This eventually led to Error going on an AU massacre, eradicating a Multiverse that had started with millions of AUs, and leading it down to only a few thousand left. The creators of the Multiverse had lacked the motivation and creativity to create any new Alternate Universes, which stopped the rapid growth of the AUs’ population. 
Ink!Sans, the guardian of AUs, was unable to keep up with the erasing of the AUs. He had no other choice but to watch majority of the AUs being wiped out, since Error was abnormally fast with deleting the Alternate Universes. 
As the number of AUs began to dwindle down, Voltage!Sans was eventually created, and was implemented with the ability to skillfully—and quickly—to fix the code of the glitching AUs. Fortunately, due to Voltage’s interference with the initial eradication of the Multiverse, Error finally had no reason to destroy any more AUs now, as many of the Alternate Universe had been fixed by Voltage himself. 
As time moved on, the Multiverse began to grow again. The creators were now back to being motivated again, which led to them creating more AUs than before. The population of AUs within the Multiverse had rapidly increased like nothing before, from having only a mere thousand left, to having more than billions of them thrive in space (Error wasn’t really happy with the overgrowth of Alternate Universes, so he might’ve destroyed a few AUs here and there.) The Multiverse has continued to expand ever since.
== Profile ==
=== Appearance ===
Voltage!Sans is a skeleton of average height with a black complexion. He has bright, yellow eye sockets with white pupils that float in the center of them; along with having vertically jagged yellow marks, one being on the top of his right eye, and the other running on the bottom of his left eye. He has yellow teeth and black metacarpals, with his proximal phalanges being orange, and his intermediate and distal phalanges being of a yellow hue. 
His usual outfit consisted of a black coat with yellow accents; yellow lines on the openings of his hood, the sides of of his sleeves, along with highlighting the outside of his pockets and ends of his coat—the ends of it being rather torn and ripped. Underneath his coat was a black sweater and white pants that went down to his knees, which had a single vertical stripe running down on each part. He donned dull brown socks, and yellow slippers.
Whenever Voltage blushes for some reason, such as when he’s embarrassed or flustered, his blush will usually be displayed as a faint yellow color. Whenever he feels a significantly strong emotion, Voltage’s body tends to emit bright, yellow bolts that are capable of shocking anyone who touches him in his emotional state. In general, Voltage’s appearance mostly resembles to an electric, or thunder bolt theme. 
=== Personality ===
Voltage!Sans has been described as a chill, laid-back, and reserved individual who occasionally interacts and accompanies those who he’s good acquaintances with. While he may appear quiet, or aloof, he is actually very attuned to his surroundings, along with being very attentive to what is happening around him. Voltage, despite being very relaxed—and even lazy sometimes, is capable of being dead serious and intimidating when he wants to be. Though, he can be quite bashful when it comes to being handed with compliments and praise. 
Voltage greatly despises unorganized, untidy, or messy placed; he has a compulsive tendency to fix things randomly, and arrange them back into a neat display. He also doesn’t like the Players really well, as a lot of them try to cheat inside the game. Because of the amount of hackers he has to deal with on a daily basis, he absolutely distastes anyone who dirtily cheats through their game’s files. Being forced to pick sides is one of Voltage’s pet peeves as well, as he would rather maintain neutral terms with everyone. Much to his dismay, due to his choice of wanting to stay neutral with everyone, he is often targeted by most parties as leverage/power against another party.
On the other hand, Voltage seems to show an immense passion for organization and neatness. He also likes to fix and mend things together, along with cleaning things up a lot. Another thing that Voltage is fond of is electricity. Like his name suggests, Voltage shows great knowledge—and power—of electricity. In fact, the creator who made him based him off of electricity. Another fact about him is that he isn’t dense, he’s very self aware and perceptive of those who interact with him. He can see through anyone, and it’s rather difficult to get anything past him in all honesty. 
=== Abilities ===
* Electrokinesis: As his name suggests, Voltage!Sans is capable of influencing the flow of any nearby source of electricity. He has the ability to redirect, reflect, and even absorb the electricity around him; which, when absorbing a lot, may result to a power outage nearby). Another part of this ability is that he can manipulate how much electricity can power a certain vessel; such as light bulbs, electrical heat in ovens, etc.). He can even produce his own electricity and give it to others, though, it does take away a lot of his energy. 
**Energy Blasters: Similar to the Gaster Blasters that most Sanses have used, Energy Blasters are skull-like entities that are capable of firing immense beams of electricity; with the electricity being hot enough to burn a patch of grass down. These entities take up a lot of Voltage’s energy to summon, so they’re not used often.
** Shock Defense: Whenever Voltage is in distress, or in a state of panic, his body tends to activate a defense mechanism that, when touched, afflicts the person who has touched Voltage with an electrical shock. Fortunately, this defensive shock isn’t fatal enough to actually hurt a person. However, it is painful to deal with. The levels of electricity being afflicted onto the person depends on how intense Voltage’s emotional state is. 
*** Paralyzation: Going back to Voltage’s electric defense mechanism, if the person has been afflicted with an even powerful electrical shock, they’ll essentially be paralyzed for a short period of time. This is quite beneficial to Voltage, as this gives him enough time to get away from a certain enemy or foe. Although, it isn’t long enough to actually hold his enemies off too much, as the paralyzing effect only stays for about 2 to 5 seconds before wearing off.
** Electrical Transportation: Similar to other Sanses having the ability to teleport from one location to another, Voltage!Sans is capable of transforming himself into a tiny bolt of electricity; which they are able to attract/attach themselves onto a source of electricity. Voltage has the ability to transport his own physical being onto the screens or software of devices. He can travel through cables, transmission/power lines, and even through extension cords. The downfall to this is that he can only transport himself onto nearby devices, it isn’t a long-ranged ability that allows him to travel through very far AUs.
** Detection: A helpful ability of his, Voltage!Sans is able to easily detect any moving threats; or other entities, through electromagnetism. He can pick up the invisible currents of electricity in the atmosphere, along with being able to sense the electromagnetism inside other humans and monsters. Due to having this ability, Voltage is able to easily evade incoming attacks; along with having insight as well when locating entities or objects. This ability is also why he is able to detect glitches happening in an AU faster.
* Coding: The main ability he was implemented with after being created, Voltage!Sans has the special power to alter an AU’s code, essentially for fixing glitches in their systems. They are skillfully able to fix a mistake, and quickly too. 
** “Freezing” Time: In order to safely reprogram and fix the code of AUs, Voltage!Sans has the power to “cut the power” of the active codes, essentially allowing him to freeze time in that AU. By doing this, he is able to temporarily deactivate the programs of AUs and entities in that AU to safely alter their codes without having to worry about risking to mess up something while fixing them. If he were to be fixing the code of a character in real time, it would lead to dangerous consequences. With this ability, he’s also able to deactivate AUs and entities that are unrelated to the problem too; he would never be able to, however, as it goes against his programming.
== Relationships ==
=== Creator (?) ===
The relationship between Voltage!Sans and his creator is unknown, as the two have only met each other once; which was the at the beginning of his existence. Though, the two are not in any bad terms (he hopes?).
=== Error!Sans (Friends) ===
Error!Sans and Voltage!Sans share a mutual understanding between one another, as they both deal with the glitches that are within the systems of other AUs. Voltage!Sans sees Error as a type of friend, while Error sees Voltage as someone who actually is relatable to them. The two essentially share a close bond together, as they both interact with each other on a daily basis, due to erasing and fixing AUs a lot.
=== Ink!Sans (Acquaintances) ===
Ink!Sans and Voltage!Sans are in a normal relationship. Despite Voltage not really wanting to team up with anyone, Ink continues to pester them into trying to pressure them into joining him and the Star Sanses. Voltage sort of finds Ink interesting; knowing that Ink actually doesn’t have a SOUL, and that he has artificial emotions. Ink!Sans just sees Voltage as one who helps along with the balance of the Multiverse, since Voltage had helped with stopping the eradication of almost all the AUs in the Universe.
== Trivia ==
