Corvine

* Half
* Full

**Corvine** is a non-canonical ‘ship-child’ of Nightmare!Sans and Killer!Sans, along with initially being an heir to Nightmare’s empire. He was born in an alternate Multiverse, the EmpireVerse; created by **Lunnar-Chan** on Tumblr. He was somehow transported into the original Multiverse after performing an error in teleportation.

Corvine, after accidentally transferring himself from his home world, now travels around the Multiverse to help others who are in need of saving. He may sometimes visit AUs (Alternate Universes) in order to make people feel sad at the right times, and have them let their emotions out; stress, anger, frustration, sadness, etc.

Unlike many of the other skeleton offsprings, Corvine is in fact a true skeleton. This means that he was actually created via biological purposes, and that he was a true child of Nightmare!Sans and Killer!Sans. However, this also means that they do not have any of the current abilities that Corrupted!Nightmare!Sans has.

## Profile

### Appearance

Corvine is a young monster with the physiology of an average-sized skeleton. Like Killer!Sans, he has black, tear-like markings that are embedded onto his cheeks; he’s capable of crying out this marks as well, however, the tears he produces are capable of being cleaned, unlike the original markings. Corvine appears to have small, red-and-purple pupils that float in the center of his eye sockets. In some cases, Corvine will blush a faintly mixed purple-and-red color.

Corvine’s main attire consists of a long-sleeved purple jacket with a high collar; with golden accents on the ends. He wears a black shirt with long sleeves that has the collar reaching his neck, dark purple pants, and purple boots with gold accents on the center. He also sports black gloves, and will often be seen wearing an indigo cloak with burgundy outlines, and tan-colored fluff being on the hood.

Similar to Killer!Sans, Corvine has his SOUL displayed at the front of his chest; with it being colored red and purple. It’s capable of changing shape, the shape itself reflecting on Corvine’s emotions.

**SOUL guide**:

* **Upside-Down Heart**: This is his SOULs’ regular state; when he’s not feeling a strong emotion.
	+ **Right-side-Up** **Heart**: Corvine’s SOUL morphs into this shape when he feels a strong emotion of compassion, or love; romantic and platonic.
* **Crescent**: Corvine’s SOUL morphs into a crescent shape when he’s either really tired, or just asleep.
* **Upside-Down Broken Heart**: When his SOUL turns into this shape, he feels a strong sense of betrayal, sadness, or is upset.

### Personality

Like his father, Nightmare!Sans, Corvine is a shy, recluse, and quiet individual who often shows a lot kindness to those around him. He has a great sense of empathy, compassion, and is deeply understanding to others. He’s usually social with those he comes across; along with sometimes speaking to the animals around him, and doesn’t mind talking or listening to others if they wanted to.

Corvine is quite humble, and graceful to a fault, being polite to those he talks to. He might even be a little sheepish when it comes to compliments; though, he won’t mind it when someone else is bragging about their own accomplishments and abilities, he’ll usually compliment them and praise them. He can be somewhat bright and cheerful when it comes to being around those he likes.

However, Corvine very much dislikes it when others are holding, or bottling up their emotions. He knows that those emotions will one day explode, and that the person may regret it, so he wants to try and help them by getting them to let their emotions out. He uses his negative aura to bring out those emotions, and then comfort them, along with listening to them if they’re in need.

Corvine loves to learn new things, and is very philosophical about life. He’s curious, but not too curious to the point where he would want to venture into danger. He knows when to stop questioning things, and when things are better off being unsaid or unknown.

### Abilities

Because he was made biologically by his parents, Nightmare and Killer, he does not possess any of the current abilities that his fathers have; such as the tentacles of Corrupted!Nightmare, or the RESET abilities of Killer. However, he still manages to have some useful abilities that he has gained from their original forms, as well as gaining powers from his own existence.

* **Negativity Empath**: Being an offspring of Nightmare!Sans, Corvine is capable of emitting an aura that allows him to bring out the worst of others’ emotions. However, unlike his father; who uses this aura for power and for control, Corvine uses his aura to bring out the bottled up emotions of others, and relieve their state in a healthier way.
	+ **Nightmare Conjuring/Teleportation**: An ability he had gained from his father, Corvine is able to cast nightmares into one’s sleep, and is also capable of teleporting into the nightmares of others. Though, he’s able to turn these nightmares into inspirational ones, as well as morphing them into warnings of some sort.
	+ **Bow of Negativity**: (not canon) Nightmare; before he got corrupted, was capable of summoning a bow that allowed him to fire arrows of negativity, which are able to attack its victims with a strong surge of negative emotions that can both weaken their mental and physical state. While he may have lost this ability when he ate the black apple, Corvine had inherited this trait, and is quite proficient at it, being skillful in the arts of archery.
* **Teleportation**: Like both of his fathers, Corvine has the ability to teleport himself from one location to another. However, he’s only able to teleport to locations where people—or other living beings—are present, as his teleportation abilities are unable to work in places that are void of emotions
* **Bones/Osteokinesis**: Corvine has the power to conjure and create dark, purple colored bones of any shape and size. He’s capable of summoning large groups of them, with the bones being strong enough to block out Gaster blasters; though, it isn’t strong enough to fend off Nightmare!Sans’s tentacles.

## Backstory

### EmpireVerse

Corvine was born through the Nightmare!Sans and Killer!Sans in his Multiverse having an affair with one another. Surprisingly, this affair of theirs had made Corvine; he was conceived through Killer!Sans’s SOUL replicating itself and it forming a vessel for its own (Corvine).

Corvine, for most of his life, was not treated well in his family. Due to Corvine not inheriting any of Nightmare’s current traits; his tentacles or current appearance, along with him not gaining any abilities from Killer, both of his father had neglected him and looked down on him, thinking that he was a failure.

It went on like this until he decided that he wanted to leave his father’s empire. Heir or not, he couldn’t stand the treatment he was getting anymore, and wanted to be out on his own.

However, while trying to teleport to a location that his friend had informed him about that was both free from his father’s land, and was able to be used, he had accidentally made a mistake in his teleporting process, and was unexpectedly transported into the original Multiverse.

### Original!Multiverse

When he was teleported into the original Multiverse, he was immediately overwhelmed with the sense of him not belonging there. Though, the location he had teleported in was, in fact, the Doodlesphere. He met Ink!Sans, Dream!Sans, and UnderSwap!Sans there; the three of them were in a meeting.

The three immediately interrogated him, with Dream saying that he had looked quite similar to his brother, Nightmare, and Killer. Ink stated that he looked like a fusion of the two, while Swap!Sans was just interrogating him normally out of a new visitor being in the Doodlesphere.

With the three receiving all the information that Corvine had, they all decided to have Corvine join them, with Corvine accepting it and now being acquainted with Ink, Dream, and Swap.

## Relationships

### Nightmare!Sans (EmpireVerse)

Corvine and his father.. didn’t have a good relationship with each other. Nightmare would often forget that Corvine had even existed, and when he did, he would simply treated Corvine as if he were a chore, rather than a son. He would sometimes take his anger out on him whenever he felt the need to, and it placed the two of them in a distant relationship.

### Killer!Sans (EmpireVerse)

While Corvine’s relationship with his other father, Killer, not being as bad as him and Nightmare’s, it was still pretty bad to say the least. Killer wouldn’t really interact with Corvine a lot, but unlike Nightmare, he still acknowledged his existence; though, he wouldn’t call Corvine his son. He and Killer had a distant relationship, as such.

### Dream!Sans (EmpireVerse)

Dream!Sans was someone Corvine had interacted with a lot back when he was in his original Multiverse. The two had pretty much built up a father-son type of relationship, with Corvine sort of replacing Nightmare with Dream as a father figure. Being mostly raised by Dream in secret, he was influenced by him and wanted to help others, just like Dream. Dream worries a lot for Corvine now, since he had disappeared without a trace.

### Ink!Sans

Ink and Corvine were confusing, to say the least. Ink was sort of distrustful towards Corvine, and would cautiously watch over him to make sure he wouldn’t go down the same path Nightmare did. The two would pretty much be awkward around each other, if they were alone.

### Dream!Sans

Corvine and Dream had a similar relationship as that of him and the Dream!Sans in his home world. To him, this new Dream!Sans was more lively, as well as shy and positive. Dream had taught Corvine a lot of things, and was very affectionate with him as if he were his own brother; probably because of the fact that Corvine both acted and looked a little like his brother’s past self.

### UnderSwap!Sans

The two would occasionally have fun with each other, with the two sharing a best-friend type of relationship with each other. Corvine would often be there to listen to whatever Swap would have to say; rants, speeches, etc. Swap was good company to Corvine.
