Chara

**Chara** was the first human to fall into the underground. They were adopted by the Dreemurr family, becoming the adoptive child of Toriel and Asgore and the adoptive sibling of Asriel. They were lethally poisoned by Asgore.

## Appearance

Chara was a human child slightly shorter than Asriel. They had brown hair, pale skin, and rosy cheeks. Their eyes in the art reference appear black rather than brown. It is unknown if it's their eye color or just art stylization.

They wore clothing borrowed from Asriel, all slightly oversized; A long-sleeved shirt with black, green, and yellow stripes, black overalls with a lavender pocket with a pinkish red heart on it, and dirtied brown shoes.

## Personality

Chara was a kind, cheerful human child who loved monsters, despite how scary some are, most notably Asgore. Chara was neutral about humans, neither loving nor hating humanity; they knew many humans were bad, but still had hope that monsters could comfortably live alongside them. They were selfless and would put monsterkind in their first and foremost thought, putting monsters before themselves.

## History

Chara fell into the underground, and was injured by their fall. Asriel brings them back to the Dreemurrs. Slowly being adopted into the family, Chara lived a happy life, though it seemed to have some rocky moments.

However, their life was taken away from them, as one day they were lethally poisoned by Asgore, soon killing them. Asriel attempted to fulfill their last wish, but was fatally attacked by the humans in their village, leaving him to his demise as well.

## Relationships

### Asgore

Asgore was Chara's adoptive father. At first, Chara was kept hidden from him, though at the beginning Asgore wasn't deranged with hatred. He found Chara before they and the other Dreemurrs could help convince him not all humans were hateful and bad. Asgore was somewhat welcoming to them at first, which threw Toriel and Asriel off. However, soon after, he quickly succumbs to his distrust in humans and poisons Chara, causing them to fall ill and eventually die. Asgore fully blames Chara for "meddling and ruining [his] family", which he then becomes the most hateful monster in the underground.

Chara, in contrary, wished to see the stars with the family, including Asgore, despite how scary he is.

### Toriel

Toriel was Chara's adoptive mother. Unlike Asgore, Toriel immediately welcomed Chara into the family and genuinely loved them as her own. She cared deeply for them and treated them equally to her biological son. She, along with Asriel, was the main one who took care of them, as they were hidden from Asgore. She hoped Chara could change Asgore's mind about humans, and never once doubted their hopeful intent. Chara also was helpful with her, very often helping her with chores/tasks.

### Asriel

Chara and Asriel were best friends and adoptive siblings. At first, Asriel did not trust Chara, and would distant himself from them, though wouldn't be mean to them. However, he was also at first rude and defensive around them, but Chara understood why and where it was coming from and did not hold it against him. However, once he saw how helpful they were with Toriel with chores/tasks, he warmed up to them and stopped being distant, though he sometimes was unintentionally rude towards them. They liked to hang out with him and daydream about how they would all have a happy family life up on the surface, such as stargazing.

When Chara became ill, their last wish was to see the flowers at their home village, which Asriel would attempt to grant their wish, but was ultimately killed by the humans.
