**Grisaille** is a fan-made ‘ship child’ of Ink!Sans and Dream!Sans, along with being the positive counterpart of Vignette. While he may be relaitvely young, he was essentially assigned with the task of being an Out!Code protector to the AUs (Alternate Universes) fairly early; starting out as a defender when he was only twelve years old.

Despite being known as the offspring of Ink and Dream, he was not biologically made by them. Instead, Grisaille was created through a pile of Dream’s positive arrows being accidentally dropped onto a paint bucket that was filled with Ink’s paint. Because of the way he was created, it would be inaccurate to consider him as a child of the two.

## Profile

### Appearance

Grisaille is an entity with the physiology of a skeleton, with their arms being covered with black markings that consisted of different patterns; the markings he has on his arms were something that he had inherited from Ink. He seems to have a large, jagged splotch of ink on the lower-left side of his face. A feature he had somewhat gotten from one of his ‘fathers’, Dream, Grisaille has grayish yellow pupils that float in the center of his eye-sockets.

Grisaille’s main attire consists of a golden brown jacket with a high collar—with the sleeves being rolled up—that maintains a few stains of permanent ink on it. He has a dirty yellow shirt underneath, black cargo pants, and brown combat boots. He also sports brown fingerless gloves and a brown scarf, with a large stain of black ink on the ends.

An important piece of his appearance is the large palette knife that he possesses, which is often kept on a black belt of some sort (an obi).

### Personality

Despite having been born as the ‘child’ of Dream and Ink, Grisaille has been shown to be a very chill, laidback, and usually realistic individual that favors logic over his heart. He’s known to be perceptive, and manipulative to a fault; though, he’s only manipulative when it comes to spread positivity all over the AUs.

He’s not exactly cheerful, nor kind like his ‘father’ Dream, and has instead described himself as more of a person who wants to serve justice. Grisaille also seems to be very calculative and intelligent in terms of emotions and overall academics. He’s been able to get through his problems by just smooth talking and knowing his opponent well.

Grisaille appears to be a well-behaved person, and is courteous to everyone he meets. Although, he can also be very blunt with what he’s saying; to which some people think as either funny or rude to some extent. He usually speaks in a monotoned, or uninterested tone of voice, which probably stemmed from his other father, Ink, and his SOULless personality.

Similar to Dream, Grisaille thrives off on the positive energy around him, with the said energy being able to make him stronger. However, due to being created through just Ink’s paint, Grisaille is also SOULless; which makes him unable to feel any emotions or empathy.

Just like how Vignette feels and senses emotions, Grisaille is capable of feeling through condensing the positive energy he absorbs into a vessel of some sorts, which allows him to feel. Of course, this SOUL of his is merely artificial, and, if damaged, won’t physically harm him. Though, if it does get damaged, his magic would decrease drastically, along with his ability to feel emotion.

### Abilities

Due to Grisaille being created through Dream and Ink’s weapons, he has inherited a few similar traits that stems from both of them. A significant ability of his, however, is that he’s able to create some type of ‘paint’ or viscous substance through condensing the positive emotions he feeds off from other AUs. This ‘paint’ of his allows him to do the following:

* **Paint Warping**: A peculiar ability Grisaille was made with; somewhat stemming from Ink’s ability to teleport through his paint, Grisaille has the power to warp through either his paint, or other paintings. This ability is able to be used by Grisaille wielding his palette knife. However, if Grisaille wanted to teleport somewhere in the real multiverse, he would only be able to teleport to areas that are in positive atmospheres.
	+ **“World” Creation**: A very advanced ability that is connected to his power of warping through paint, Grisaille is able to “create” worlds in which he is capable of manipulating the very fabrics of reality and physics of. These worlds of his are only accessible through their original paintings. Meaning that each world he creates is only able to be entered through a single painting that was assigned to each; he will often put these paintings on canvases and place them into a space that only he can enter. These worlds don’t count as AUs, they’re more like worlds of imagination.
* **Creation**: Like Ink, Grisaille is able to create nearly anything with his paint, with the exception being the deceased. He usually creates something through painting it on a canvas, but if he’s trying to create something quickly, he simply has to paint on the floor; if there’s no surface for him to paint on, he can only slash through the air and have his paints come out. These creations of his, however, can only last for about 3 to 5 minutes, before eventually melting into puddles of paint. Though, the duration of these creations may vary depending on the amount of positivity in the atmosphere.
* **Regeneration**: Similar to the way Ink may heal his allies, Grisaille is capable of regenerating either himself, or others by just plastering an open wound with his paint. Because of his paint being made through positive emotions, it is able to heal the injuries of others.

* **Positivity Absorption**: Like his father, Dream, Grisaille is capable of absorbing any source of positive emotions nearby. In contrast to Dream’s ability to harness all of the positive feelings in the Multiverse, Grisaille is only able to wield the positivity that is near him. If the positivity in the environment he’s in is dry, his powers won’t be as effective as it would be in environments that are rich in positive emotions.

## Backstory

During a certain ‘art session’, Ink was busy teaching Dream the basics of trying to paint with acrylics. As Dream was learning how to paint, he accidentally had a small group of his positivity arrows fall down from their sash and onto the paint bucket that lied near the canvas.

What happened afterwards was surprising, to say the least. As after the accident had been done, a bright glow shined through the bucket of paint, with Dream panicking as such and Ink just being confused to why his paint was glowing. Immediately, the paint flew straight out of the bucket, and started to form a skeleton of some sorts.

Due to the skeleton being immediately created, Ink rushed into painting clothes for them to cover them up; hence why Grisaille has clothes that are stained with ink. And with that, Grisaille was born, and was surprisingly accepted by Ink and Dream.

## Relationships

### Dream!Sans (‘Father’)

Dream is quite fond of Grisaille, often fawning over him with love and affection. Grisaille doesn’t really like to be smothered with love and attention, but he doesn’t mind Dream doing it. Back to when Grisaille was initially created, Dream had immediately decided to take care of the newly-made skeleton. However, because of this, Dream’s role of being the protector of positivity had now passed onto Grisaille unknowingly.

Even though he now knew that Grisaille was going to be the replacement for him, Dream still took care of them, and tried to teach them the basics of spreading positivity and protecting the AUs.

### Ink!Sans (‘Father’)

Unlike Dream, Ink was just indifferent towards Grisaille. “He had been accidental creation”, which was what Ink’s Mind told him. Ink tried his best to form some type of relationship with Grisaille, but it mostly ended up with the two being awkward. The only thing they both liked was art, and it was usually the thing that was able to somewhat bond them together.

### Vignette (Negative Counterpart)

Grisaille, despite being the latter’s positive counterpart, finds Vignette quite adorable and amusing. He was somewhat entertained by them trying to destroy him; with no success, of course. Grisaille was stronger than Vignette to a fault, which made the latter want to murder them even more. Vignette, on the other hand, sees Grisaille as some type of “pain-in-the-ass” to deal with. Since she was unable to get Grisaille into feeling any negative emotion, she grew to hate and be pissed around him. It’s a hate-love relationship overall.

### Palette Roller (Younger Brother)

Palette Roller and Grisaille share a simple brotherly relationship with one another. Palette sees Grisaille as a really cool, and mature person that he likes to spend time with. Grisaille loves Palette the same way that Sans would love his little brother, Papyrus. Although, Grisaille isn’t really skilled in shwoing Palette his love for him
