Gyftrot

Gyftrot is a monster the protagonist can find in Snowdin Forest. They can be encountered outside of the Mysterious Door's cave, where sets of eyes peer out of the wall. If Papyrus has been spared, Gyftrot can be found as an NPC in the same area.
== Profile ==
=== Appearance ===
Gyftrot visually resembles a reindeer, except with a distinct face. Gyftrot's ears are on top of their head, their eyes are on the front, and they have a vertical jaw with sharp teeth. Their antlers branch in three different directions, with two of them pointing up and have pine trees. They also appear to have a pair of eyes at the base of their antlers. Other basic details are the four polka dots on their back, and the variety of decorations they have on. The protagonist can either add googly eyes to Gyftrot, or undecorate them.
=== Personality ===
Gyftrot is a paranoid and irritated monster. This behavior arose due to teenage monsters prank decorating them without their consent. When encountered, Gyftrot becomes very irritated from the protagonist's "youthful demeanor." Defying this, if the protagonist undecorates them, Gyftrot calms down and starts to trust the protagonist. However, if the protagonist decorates them afterward, Gyftrot becomes angry and disappointed. According to a Cell Phone call from Papyrus, Gyftrot likes receiving gifts.

== Trivia ==
* Gyftrot's name is likely a combination of "gift" and "trot." The word "gift" may refer to Gyftrot's Christmas theme and may also be a hint that the protagonist should Gift them; "trot" may refer to the way that Gyftrot walks. Although they are never seen walking in-game, it can be assumed from their name and appearance that Gyftrot would walk like a reindeer or a deer.
* Gyftrot can have any of the three different items decorating them per encounter:
** Forehead: Snowdrake's photograph.
** Both antlers: barbed wire made of pipe cleaners.
** Top left antler: lenticular bookmark, striped cane.
** Top right antler: Annoying Dog, stocking.
** Body: shirt.
** Back: raisins.
* One of the potential decorated items is a childhood photo of Snowdrake and his parent. However, it is unclear if the photo features Snowdrake's Mother or Snowdrake's Father.
* If the protagonist fully undecorates Gytrot, then decorates them with googly eyes, Gytrot becomes angry. Gyftrot then refuses any Gifts the protagonist offers during the encounter.
* According to Gift Bear, it is implied that Gyftrot was the monster decorated by teenagers. After monsters gifted the decorated monster, it inspired a Christmas-like tradition in Snowdin.
** If Papyrus has been spared, Gytrot reaffirms this.
* In True Pacifist Route epilogue, Gyftrot is one of the few monsters that want to stay in the Underground, as they want "peace and quiet."
* In the True Pacifist Ending Credits, Gyftrot's white and yellow descriptions appear reversed, as their white description aligns with them wanting to be left alone.
** Gyftrot's yellow description is "Christmas Display," despite the protagonist needing to undecorate Gyftrot to spare them.
* Gyftrot was partially designed by Magnolia Porter and Toby Fox. According to Toby Fox in the artbook, Gyftrot was originally designed as a Hotland enemy; they were moved to Snowdin and their horns changed from vents shooting out jets of fire to pine trees. "A smorgasboard of Magnolia Porter monster designs for the fire area. I reappropriated Gyftrot for the ice area and changed its horns. Vulkin’s here." - Undertale Art Book, page 196
* Gyftrot's angled eyes and vertical jaw is reminiscent of Photoshop Flowey.
