## Backstory

Similarly to events of typical Dusttale, this Dust!Sans was struggling with same problem as the original variation of him has. How to beat he human, permanently. Sans has been loseing him mind lately, all the resets, seeing his family and his brother dying over and over again, the nightmares and even occasional halucinations where too much and at the end of the day getting slashed across his chest by that knife and dusting off only to wake up the next second remembering everything with everyone else not remembering a thing. Sans decided things needed to change one way or the other. Sans went to Asgore and requested access to human souls of kindness and preservance wich Asgore, being a kind, fluffly king he was gladly approved. Sans took souls to The True lab where using DT extractor he changed shape of each soul into a liquified extract wich he injected into his own soul. The plan was simple, extracts of soul of kindness and preservence would heal and strenghten his body and soul enough so that with each kill he did and LV he gained he would be able to inject himself with one of Alphyses DT srynges between each kill while extracts would ensure that drastic development would not leave permanent demages demages to his body or soul. Everything was going fine as Sans killed monsters from weakest up to strongest, he even went to Ruins and killed everyone even Toriel who was peacfully sleeping. Things were going fine up until he came across Papayrus. His brother tried to prevent him from spilling any more dust, but Sans did not listen. In a moment of desperation and stress Sans launched several bones through Papayruses chest severaly injuring him. Sans regained his control and quickly proceeded to try and help Papayrus however Papayrus summoned a bone and slashed Sans across his right eye as he told Sans to stay away from him. Sans got up and through tears told Papayrus that he was sorry for being such a bad big brother, however Papayruses next words shatterd what little sanity Sans had at the moment "YOU ARE NOT MY BROTHER! YOU ARE JUST A MONSTER!". Sans's whole world crushed, he felt pain sharper than when human pierced him with their knife, he was sure in fact that even the combained pain of all 300 slashes would not be enough to describe pain he was feeling at the moment. All for whom he was doing this was Papayrus and he called him a monster, Sans went bresreak as in an utter rage he tore Papayrus to pices and smashed his soul. After doing this he felt a bit relived and also DETERMINED. He continued on killing everyone else and injecing himself with DT syringes between each kill taking more each time. As Sans finally killed everyone he belived he was the true hero. The choosen one who will bring change to this world. Sans batteld the human and won with no difficulty, he then tore their soul out and absorbed it gaining complete control of his timline. Now having ability to Reset, Chara tried to convince him to do so telling him everything could go back how it was, but Sans wasn't having it as he spoke: "I can't run from what I've done, not like you can. Because each time I look at their faces and into their eyes I will remember what I did and how I did it. So the best was to try and forget it is to ERASE it." Sans smummoned a red and black button labbeld ERASE as Chara's eyes widend in fear staring at Sans as he pressed the button and erased timline along with his entier AU. Sans found himself in white empty space filled with pure nothingless. As he wonderd where he ended up a goppy black figure approched him and introduced itself as Nightmare and offerd Sans a deal of joining him wich much to his shock Sans fully agreed to. When figure asked what Sans wanted he replaid that he wanted what being had wich was power and wisdom in order to be able to change things for good. Nightmare asked Sans what he was gonna call himself since there are many Sanses around with Sans replaing he was gonna be called Dust.

## Appereance

Dust is 5'11 feet tall skeleton with red and purple glowing eyes with constant tears streaming from theme. On himself he is wearing dark bleu jacket with gray hood wich is covering his head, under his jacket he is wearing gray turtle sweater vest and on his legs he has shoprt glack pants with white stripes. He is also wearing dark and dusty pink slippers.

## Personality

Before he was dreven insane by resets Dust had typical Sans personality wich was that of lazy skeleton who loved jokes and talking to certian people he felt could not just hear him but also coul listen him. Everything changed after humans repetative cycle of killing led him to insanity and to him slaughtering everyone. In his curret personality Dust is a cold, calculated and overly self rightous individual with deep hatred towards any humans that may cross his path in general and not just towards Frisk and Chara variations, as seen when he had to be held back by Nightmare so that he wouldn't attack Aliza. Dust seems to have a deep hate towards monsters as well, especially towards his brother Papayrus who he despises and as a result only uses as a destructive weapon in his phantom form. Despite everything Dust seems to be regreting killing Toriel and Grilby as well as some of the children who he developed friendship with and also seems to hate himself party for not being able to save theme seeing himself as faliure, he pushes these toughts aside and supresses theme by constantly telling himself he it the choosen one and that their deaths were neccesary sacrifaces wich is why he grew unresponive to Horror's provocation's over the course of years and provoked Horror back. Dust still maintains his typical love for puns and bad jokes and seems to have a book contining many diffrent jokes he likes to read when he is alon and laugh to himself.

## Powers and abilities

### Purple Gaster Blasters

The Gaster Blasters Sans uses are purple in color and incredibly powerful, capable of dealing up to 40k damage with every attack. And the stronger and bigger the blaster is, the more magic is consumed, because you can see that it has so much magic at the beginning of the fight, but if the fight is long The fight can also waste a lot of magic if he summons the big blasters all the time, so I would mostly prefer the smaller blasters, which usually do around 40k damage So the middle guest blaster, which of course also wastes a little more magic, is bigger if you do more damage but also a lot more magic Even if he now summons several large blasters one after the other, they do significantly more damage but consume significantly more magic And that's why he mostly makes his blasters do 40k damage each The really big ones also do several million damage but also waste a lot of magic

### Bone Bomb Attack

With this attack he can create bones that are purple and not only do they destroy anything they touch, but it behaves similarly to a resin bomb.

### Soul Manipulation

With this he can manipulate souls, sling them around and even create nightmares with a special ability that only his opponent can see.

### Dust Blasters

Dust Blasters are his special attack. When he hits his opponent with this attack, he always breaks them down entirely, no matter if it's just a scratch or dead-on attack.

### Time Manipulation

With this ability he can partially manipulate time but every time he uses this ability and manipulates time it wastes a lot of magic he can't do it for long Use because otherwise he loses stamina quickly and since he needs stamina most of the time, he rarely uses this ability

### Shadow Manipulation

With this ability he can manipulate shadows and use these shadows as weapons, allowing him to connect his bones to the shadows so that they are invulnerable. The shadows do damage when they hit the shadow of his opponent, so the attack is impossible to dodge, only a shadow could block the attack.

### Bones of Destruction

Through this attack, he can completely destroy any type of matter.

### Teleportation

He has the ability to teleport. This ability is so strong that he can even teleport through other dimensions

### Purple tendrils

With this ability, he can create purple tendrils that either bind or attack his opponents, or both. He can also use these tendrils to protect himself from attacks that do trillion damage Make As a result, these tendrils are so stable that they can even tank damage, which makes a trillion damage

### purple dust Explosion

With this ability, he can create purple explosions out of dust that are so powerful that they cause destruction several kilometers away This ability consumes a lot of magic and stamina, so he doesn't use this ability that often except when he wants to completely wipe out enemies now But he was able to create so much magic that he can use this ability a total of three times before he loses stamina from this ability after using this ability he can Don't use this ability for a period of time They can even use a sans version that is e.g. acid resistant to attacks, he can still damage them with this explosion because it's so strong

### poison damage

Well with this ability is classic sans ability with every attack he makes his opponent also gets poison damage

### Flowey's Friendliness Pellets

Sans has gained Flowey's pellets and can use them for his own intentions.

## Relationships

### Nightmare (boss/mentor)

Unlike cannon relationship Dust generally listens to Nightmare and respects him. He knew from the moment he saw Nightmare that he was an individual of great power and knowledge as well as understanding of what true pain, sorrow and misery are. Unlike his original variation Dust asked Nightmare to help him and to teach him how to be negative embodied creature promising his unquenstionable loyalty in return. This deal between the two was sealed by Bill!Sans and according to it Nightmare would teach Dust everythin he knew and would not harm Dust and Dust would in return stay loyal to Nightmare and do mostly everything Nightmare told him to unless it was absolutly certian that it would be fatal for Dust like attacking 404. Dust often hangs around Nightmare who trust him a lot and has given him the command of Murder time trio as well of some other high ranking members of the gang.

### Cross (friend/sibling relationship)

Dust and Cross have a brotherly relationship. Since they are both from similar universes and both have sufferd a great deal of pain and misery they have a lot in common and can relate to each other. At first the two always stood in akward silence wherever they were in each other's company, both farily closed and uninterasted in any type of communication or social behavior with the other one. As time went on however they eventually decided to share their stories with Dust being the first one to open up despite the judgment he might face, but insted of hard criticisam he recived sympathy and understanding from Cross who told him his own story. That is when they realised that they were nearly the same each having justified reasons to kill, on one hand Dust killed for sake of stopping the human and Cross killed because he was sick and tierd of control and of being seen as "breed" of Sans and wanted to become his own person. Dust understood Cross's lack of love for his brother and accepted him, heck he was glad he meet somone diffrent from a typical generic Sans, with Cross feeling the same way about Dust. The shared many interests and Cross would often listen to Dust's puns and even laughed at some of theme, he also displayd carring behavior for Dust when he saw how Horror insulted him, resulting in Cross attacking and nearly killing Horror wich Dust seems to greatly appreciate. Still there is one thing he does not agree with Dust about and that thing is Nightmare. He is warning Dust to be cearful of his friends with Nightmare.
