So Sorry

So Sorry is an optional miniboss that can be encountered in the Art Club Room. He was a $1,000 tier bought-in character during the Undertale Kickstarter, where a backer's fantroll would become canon in Undertale.
The protagonist must read the sign in the Art Club room when the player's computer/console clock is set for October 10th at 8 AM or 8 PM (i.e. between 8:00 and 8:59) to encounter him, or all day on the Nintendo Switch or Xbox versions. The Muffet encounter must also be finished before the encounter in versions 1.00 and 1.001.
Killing So Sorry accrues EXP and is considered a kill by the game, which causes a True Pacifist Route attempt to fail. However, this would not increase the protagonist's LV if they have never gained EXP.
== Profile ==
=== Appearance ===
So Sorry resembles a kangaroo, although his original backer's design shows him as a dragon. His body is primarily orange, with brown accents and light brown hair. In battle, he can wear one of five different hats. The shape of his muzzle also changes with each of his expressions.
=== Personality ===
So Sorry is an apprehensive, apologetic, but otherwise friendly artist. His attacks are not deliberate attempts to hurt the protagonist, but rather clumsy attempts to show his art and creativity. He presents as very awkward, insecure, and quick to blame himself, going so far as to apologize for being attacked, assuming he "got in the way".
== In Battle ==
=== Attacks ===
* He swings his tail at the protagonist while he turns around to search for things in his vest. This tail uses blue and orange attacks.
* Crumpled paper is thrown at the protagonist in mass amounts.
* He mistakenly draws Doodlebogs, which throw doodles in circular formations at the protagonist. The Doodlebogs are disposed of with the "Draw" ACT option.
* When the battle is about to end, So Sorry does both of his first aforementioned attacks at the same time.
=== Strategy ===
So Sorry cannot be spared. The battle can be ended in two ways.
* Progressing the battle without attacking for at least ten turns. The battle does not progress while Doodlebogs are present.
* Attacking 11 times.

* [Attack]
** Oh! Whoops! That hurt!
** So sorry, I must have gotten in the way!
** I really shouldn't stand so close
** Ah I'm just being troublesome
* [Attack #2]
** Darn it, I keep getting in the way
** So sorry, I'm such an oaf
** Wandering in front of you...
* [Attack #3]
** ...
** Are you... trying to KILL me?
** ... so sorry, but I've had a really tough year.
** I don't know if I could take you killing me on top of everything.
** You should find someone else to kill. So sorry.
* [Attack #4]
** ?????
** I just said I'm not interested in the offer!!
** ...
** Sorry, I must not have enunciated clearly enough.
** I am not interested in being killed. Thank you very much.
* [Attack #5]
** Look, stranger
** I... I guess I'm going to have to tell the truth.
** My whole life, I've never been worth a lot of EXP.
** Everyone else at my work, in my classes,
** Would raise a person's LV by 4 or 5 when destroyed...
** But me?
** I wouldn't even increase your LV at LV 1.
** For this reason... I... I've always been...
** I've never been very good at getting killed. So...
** I'm flattered that you... Want to destroy me.
** But you are making a big waste of your time!!
** Stop killing me!!!
* [Attack #6]
** OK, OK. Hm.
** ...
** If you stop killing me, I'll pay you 200G.
* 220G? [Attack #7]
* [Attack #8]
** ...
** 300G?
* [Attack #9]
** W... Wait a second.
** You trying to kill me... C... could it be...?
** Because you don't like me very much...?
** No, no, that can't be!
** This is just a friendly, um, killing between acquaintances!!!
** Pals... we're... we're still pals, right!!
** OK, maybe not PALS, but, uh,
** Friendly strangers?
** You know, just one step away from being buds!!!
** I mean, I was practically...
** I was about to crack open the sparkling cider!
** Pull out some baguettes and some swiss cheese!
** BLOW ON A FREAKING PARTY HORN!!!
* [Attack #10]
** N... no, you don't like me either, huh...?
** Nobody likes me... they're just putting up with me
** I'm just annoying you... I should just leave
** ARRRRRGHHHH!!! Why am I such an idiot??!?!!!!
** How did I not see it before!!!
** You weren't killing me because you LIKED me!!!
** NOBODY does that!
** That's NOT a thing!
* [Attack #11]
** Oh. Sorry. I was being too loud. Ugh.
** I'm wasting your time, aren't I...?
** ...
** ... whew, I feel really... strange.
** I think I need to go home and lie down.
** Oh, and...
** About all this.
** Um.
** Sorry.

== Trivia ==
* So Sorry has five different hats that he might wear in battle: a party hat, a tiny cowboy hat, a beret, a jester hat, and a fedora.
* So Sorry and Asgore are the only characters to use both blue and orange attacks (not including the lasers in Hotland and the CORE.)
* So Sorry cannot be encountered in the Genocide Route as floor 2 of Hotland (where the Art Club Room is located) is blocked off.
** If Art Club Room is entered on the Genocide Route, So Sorry still cannot be encountered as the sign in the Art Club Room reads "(Art club is cancelled!)."
* So Sorry cannot be encountered during the Epilogue as the sign reads "Who knows what lies in the future for Art Club!?."
* His appearance is partly based on the backer's own pre-existing avatar. The backer, Samael, wanted to minimalize their own appearance and personality from their in-game representation to give Toby Fox more room to design the character more spontaneously.
* Temmie Chang made a front overworld sprite for So Sorry, but it was not used and So Sorry is only seen from the back outside of battle. However, in the console ports beginning with the Nintendo Switch version, So Sorry's front overworld sprite can be seen in the True Pacifist Route, but only after facing him. He can be seen standing outside the Art Club Room opposite from Tsunderplane.
* Like some other characters in the game, So Sorry's flavor text shows that they have multiple pronouns. In said text, they are referred to with the pronouns "it," "they," and "his."
* If So Sorry is repeatedly attacked, he will offer increasing amounts of GOLD for sparing him. However, the amount of GOLD received is based on the standard formula for determining GOLD based on how much damage was inflicted. The amounts of GOLD offered by So Sorry are unused.
* So Sorry's original creator, an artist known as "Samael," was the subject of harassment after their character was discovered because of the fat fetishism themes in their work.
* So Sorry's name most likely comes from the fact that he never mentions his name. One of his first lines spoken to the player is "I'm so sorry!". The "I'm" could be interpreted as "My name is."
* When So Sorry's HP has been depleted, he tries to limp off-screen like Sans. However, he dies before doing so.
** After killing So Sorry, the sign in the Art Club Room reads "(Art is dead.)."
* So Sorry always takes 100 damage when attacked, regardless of attack strength or accuracy.
* Doodlebog may be a reference to the character DoodleBob from SpongeBob SquarePants, another drawing come to life whose name is only 1 letter off from Doodlebog's.
