Cursor!Sans

**Unauthorized editing of this page is prohibited**

**Cursor!Sans** is a Sans variant created by **NikkoNijime07**. He’s a solitary Out!Code Protector that defends the AUs (Alternate Universes) of the Multiverse out of his own morality and general kindness.

Prior to being a protector, Cursor was created through unknown means, and had no connections to any of the other characters or AUs. Due to being generated out of thin air and not having any known memories before being created, Cursor does not have a strong “right or wrong” judgement, and believes that everyone—no matter what side they’re on—deserves to be spared.

Cursor’s behavior tends to be quite the conundrum most of the other sanses, often confusing him with being a traitor. Cursor sort of acts as a type of peacemaker between sides, and will try his very best to make sure both are alive and safe. He’ll usually heal anyone who he comes across, and doesn’t hold any ill-will towards others, no matter how horrible they might be.

## Biography

### Awakening

While Cursor didn’t have any actual memories before being created, he is capable of recalling the memories of how it felt like to be immediately generated into existence. He had awoken almost immediately after spawning into the spaces of the Multiverse, and was created with him already wearing clothes, already knowing how to speak and talk normally, and knew most of what a regular human or monster could physically do.

He had spent a lot of his time exploring the AUs that were near him, and eventually about the abilities he was made with. Cursor would unintentionally visit worlds that had Pacifist timelines, and was unaware of the Genocide timelines that existed. In the AUs he’s visited, he’s been taught to never hold any ill-will towards other beings, as they might be suffering through something that he might not know of. He was also taught to treat everything, and everyone, with kindness, as kindness was one of the things that could potentially heal anything.

### Not-Mandatory Duty

During a visit to one of the AUs, Cursor had came across Dream!Sans, who was, at the moment, defending the AU he was visiting from another skeleton, Nightmare!Sans. The battle between Dream and Nightmare was the first battle Cursor had ever witnessed. After the battle had ended, Cursor asked the Sans of the AU he was visiting of who Dream and Nightmare were. Cursor was awed at how important the duty of being a guardian to the Multiverse was, and decided to become a protector as well.

Ever since then, Cursor began to guard many of the AUs around the Multiverse. However, he didn’t wish to harm anyone who had wanted to destroy the alternate universes. So instead of battling them, Cursor would usually tire them out, convince them to leave, or just teleport them away from the AU.

Sometime after, Cursor’s efforts of protecting the AUs, while at the same time not wanting to cause harm to anyone who wished to destroy them, had garnered the attention of both Ink!Sans and Error!Sans. Knowing about his existence, Ink often tried to convince Cursor into joining the Star Sanses; an elite team of sanses who protect the AUs from harm. Cursor, despite hearing that Dream, the one who had inspired him to become a protector in the first place, declined the offer and said that he wanted to help everyone, not just those who were being attacked by the destroyers.

Error made a very awful attempt in trying to get Cursor into getting on his team of Sanses, by threatening Cursor with harming his SOUL. Cursor however, was able to resist the threat by repeatedly fleeing from Error, along with cutting his strings a lot. Cursor found Error’s way of trying to get him to join his side was amusing.

## Profile

### Appearance

Cursor!Sans, like his original counterpart, is a skeleton with white, arrow-shaped pupils that float within his eye-sockets; his left eye having an arrow facing down, and his right eye having an arrow facing up. There are a few gray-arrow markings on his face, two upward-facing arrows on the lower right side, and a long arrow marked underneath his lower right eye.

His over color scheme consisted of many monotoned shades: A long scarf with the ends of it being cut into the shape of an arrow’s tips, a black sleeve-less shirt, Black shorts, and black combat boots. He sports black, fingerless gloves, a blue-shaded scouter with a gray arrow in front of his right eye, and a dark scabbard behind its back with several brown straps around it. Cursor also has long, controllable and extendable arrows that curl around his arms and legs.

### Personality

Cursor!Sans is a kind, sincere skeleton with a casual personality, along with having a well-natured, and respectful demeanor. He’s very friendly, and significantly social, who is capable of catching on to almost anything with just the way with how someone was looking, and acting. He’s emotionally intelligent, and is capable of making friends on the fly. Cursor is always accepting to anyone who has something to say, and is open to all opinions, along with being a great therapist for those in need.

In addition to his well-natured and caring personality, his altruism is what sticks out from the rest of his characteristics. Cursor has never held a grudge on someone, and finds it impossible to hate or dislike someone. He was described to be the type of monster to help anyone in need, no matter what circumstances they might be in. However, his kindness could easily be exploited by many others, which is something that usually upsets him. However, even though someone may be using him, he will never hate them, and will try to find a way to help them with their problems.

## Abilities

* **Emotional Intelligence**: Like many of the other Sanses, Cursor!Sans is capable of knowing how to read the room, along with being able to tell how someone is feeling at any given moment. He usually uses this ability of his in order to help someone in need of emotional assistance.
* **Arrows**: Cursor!Sans was created with the ability to manipulate large, string-like arrow appendages that are capable of slicing through almost anything. The arrows themselves usually spawn behind Cursor’s back, but are able to generate anywhere else. Cursor!Sans often uses these arrows of his to immobilize his opponents safely. This ability is able to be used in a diverse set of ways, such as using them to climb/grip onto things, using them as a type of platform; they’re extendable, and have no known size limit.
	+ **Arrow Sword**: The Arrow Sword is one of Cursor’s main weapons in order to defend himself from his enemies. The tip of the blade is able to have its size altered, similar to the way of how the Blue Knife of Chara functions from Glitchtale.
	+ **Cocoon of Arrows**: Similar to the Tortoise formation of shields, when Cursor spouts a large amount of arrows, he can control them into forming a sort of dome that can protect Cursor from almost anything coming from outside. Though, he can also use this ability to trap his opponents into tight cocoons, immobilizing them until further notice.
* **Teleportation/AU hopping**: As a Sans, Cursor is capable of teleporting himself, along with others, through any location in the Multiverse, as long as he knows the location’s coordinates. This is usually a method of escape, or as a way to return others to safety.
* **Regeneration**: For some reason, Cursor was created with a Monster SOUL being intact with a Kindness SOUL. This is probably how Cursor gained the ability to create arrows; Undyne having ones that are capable of being launched, instead of them all being attached to their bodies. Due to have a Kindness SOUL somewhat intact onto his, Cursor has the ability of regenerating both him, and anyone else around him. Though, the regenerating process is much slower than usual, since he doesn’t have a complete SOUL of Kindness.
* **Photographic Memory**: Cursor has an incredible ability when remembering things, he can vividly describe the experiences he’s had in the past, and is able to remember everything that has happened after his Awakening.

## Weaknesses

* **Kindness**: Cursor, being the kind monster he is, is unable to sort of damage another being without feeling guilty for it. After being created, Cursor had always been taught to be kind and caring towards others. Due to these lessons of morality, Cursor can’t find it within himself to actually hurt someone purposely. This can be exploited by others if they manage to overpower Cursor.
* **Patience**: Since Cursor is always trying to help everyone, he can pretty much be a target to those who might want to hurt them mentally. Even if Cursor is betrayed, or hurt multiple times by that person, they can’t bring themselves to hate them. He’ll just endure the treatment and try to help the person with their problems.

## Relationships

### Dream!Sans (Role Model)

Being the one to have inspired Cursor into becoming a Protector from the start, Dream was Cursor’s role model, and he had wanted to become someone like him; kind, determined, and brave. Though, while he does look up to Dream, he just can’t stand actually meeting Dream in-person (As he would rather observe them from afar as Dream acts like his good self). Dream is aware of Cursor, but doesn’t know that Cursor actually looks up to him.

### Nightmare!Sans (Neutral)

Despite being a destroyer of some sorts, Cursor does want to try and help Nightmare in anyway he can; in a way that doesn’t hurt anyone. Nightmare finds Cursor intriguing, as most entities would enjoy wanting to murder him. He was confused for why Cursor decided to heal him, despite having battled with him before. Even so, the two don’t really have any sort of relationship going on, and may sometimes visit each other to get to know more about one another.

### Ink!Sans (Neutral)

Cursor and Ink were both Protectors, wanting to protect “everyone”, but Cursor found that Ink didn’t actually try to help those that were in desperate of assistance: HorrorTale and DustTale for example. The artist was very confused with how Cursor behaved, wanting to heal his enemies despite having been the one to defeat them in the first place. Though, Ink is rather irritated with Cursor’s decision of refusing the offer to join him and his team, and will usually try to convince him to rethink his decision.
