Chara

Chara Dreemurr

Alias- Fallen Human, Frisk, Megalomaniac

Status- Alive

**Chara** is the first human to have fallen into the Underground. After being found by Asriel Dreemurr, he became the adoptive son of rulers Asgore Dreemurr and Toriel, as well as the adoptive brother and best friend of Asriel Dreemurr. As time went on, Chara and Asriel had a strong bond, being the best of brothers and friends towards each other. Wanting to free monsters from the Underground, Chara and Asriel conducted a plan, where Chara poisoned himself with buttercups, eventually dying of terminal illness, allowing Asriel to absorb Chara's SOUL in order to cross the Barrier. In his home village, Chara took control over Asriel and attempted to kill the humans there to obtain their SOULs in order to destroy the Barrier, but Asriel resisted and went back to New Home, allowing himself to get attacked by the villagers. When Asriel died of his wounds, Chara remained as a ghost who haunted the Underground for a long time, eventually finding Frisk and convincing them to do a genocide run. When Frisk fell into the Underground, Chara became his partner, watching Frisk make friends with the enemies he faced and eventually fighting Omega Flowey, a monstrous form of Asriel. Chara had observed Frisk using SAVE and his Determination to keep coming back to life after dying, and later on, in the True Pacifist Route, Frisk and Chara fought Asriel in his godly form. The two managed to save Asriel from his despair, bringing up his emotions with memories of his childhood with Chara. Afterwards, Asriel used his powers to break the Barrier, freeing all the monsters so that they could live happily on the Surface. However, Frisk had been resetting the timeline over and over again to relive the True Pacifist Route, and later he pushed the forces of space-time to its limits, going through dangerous routes after every reset, much to the chagrin of Chara. During the Genocide Route, HATE manifested inside Frisk's SOUL, and while it was corrupting the two humans, Chara was feeding off its energy to gain strength and reincarnate.

In his final battle with Sans, Frisk was about to reset and make up for his mistakes, but Chara took over and tried to kill Sans, but Frisk managed to sacrifice his life to save Sans, giving him his human SOUL. Powered up, Sans eliminated Chara before resetting, however, since he reseted at a moment he was not suppose to, this created glitches across space and time. When Frisk was about to activate Hard Mode, he infused the unbearable HATE into Chara, unintentionally corrupting him fully and brainwashing him into a psychopathic megalomaniac who was sent to the Void. One of the glitches allowed Chara to return to his home dimension, leading him to absorbing Determination and trying to extract Determination from Frisk. During the Battle at the True Lab, Chara fought against Sans and Flowey, winning the fight by obtaining Frisk's Determination, taking control over the timeline.

However, after freeing W. D. Gaster, the heroes fought against Chara once again, but his Determination was too strong, so Flowey was empowered by the SOULs of Frisk and the six fallen children, transforming Flowey into Asriel the God of Hyperdeath. While the siblings were inside a bubble of HATE, Chara explained how he had been corrupted before engaging in a fight. During it, Asriel, Frisk and the spirits fought against HATE and reminded Chara of all the fun memories he had with Asriel, freeing Chara from HATE. As the siblings reunited, Chara used the remains of his SOUL and the SOUL Traits from the other children to create a rainbow SOUL for Asriel so that he could live on as his normal self, while Chara would pass away. Chara emotionally bade farewell to his best friend before he was transported to the Void.

A month later, Frisk and his friends were faced against Bête Noire, so Frisk traveled to the Void, where he reunited with Chara. He was told by Frisk that Chara would obtain Frisk's SOUL so that they could supposedly switch places, with Chara being alive. However, Chara learned that Frisk was planning to replace himself with Chara, which would erase Frisk and everyone's memories of Frisk from existence, much to Chara's utter dismay. Chara returned to the timeline and he had his battle against a HATE-infused Asriel, holding onto Asriel's Heart Locket to make Asriel believe that was Chara's. He lured HATE from Asriel into himself, freeing his brother, while Chara maintained his normal mindset using hope. After Bête Noire was killed, HATE began attacking Determino, prompting a fierce final battle against the malevolent creature, and with the help of Asriel being the God of Hyperdeath, Chara slayed HATE, saving the world. Growing up, Chara continued being the best of friends with Asriel, content with humans and monsters finally making peace.

As a child, Chara traveled to Mount Ebott and fell into a large hole that led to the Underground. Landing in the entrance to Home, the fallen Chara was found by Asriel Dreemurr, who brought him into his home. There, Chara was adopted by the rulers Asgore Dreemurr and Toriel, and Chara became the best of friends with his brother Asriel, growing a strong bond. One day, Chara and Asriel ventured through Waterfall and heard music, so they went off to find the source of it. There, they found the ancient statue with an umbrella and water dripping on it, and they held hands while looking at it.

Wanting to free monsters from the Underground, Chara conducted a plan. He planned to consume buttercups and die of a terminal illness, allowing Asriel to absorb his human SOUL in order to cross the Barrier, claim six other human SOULs and use the eight SOULs, including Asriel's, to destroy the Barrier, freeing everyone. Even though Asriel reluctantly agreed with this, Chara consumed buttercups and eventually passed away, much to the grief of his adoptive family. Asriel then absorbed Chara's SOUL, allowing Chara to control Asriel's transformed body.

Chara carried his own corpse across the Barrier and to his home village, where the human villagers assumed that Asriel killed Chara. As they were being attacked, Chara attempted to use his full power to destroy the villagers, but Asriel resisted, taking over his body and deciding to show them mercy. Asriel ventured back to the Underground with Chara's body in his hands, being struck by the humans without defending himself. Upon returning to New Home, Asriel collapsed on the flower bed, turning into dust. Toriel wanted to give Chara a proper burial, so she carried Chara's body to the Ruins, where she buried him on the spot he first landed in the Underground on. Since then, Chara had remained as a ghost, haunting the Underground for decades.

### Partners with Frisk

#### Journey Through the Underground

Chara guided Frisk through the Underground many times. The first many runs they did together were pacifist, however, being curious, Frisk started killing monsters, little by little, resetting every time they killed one out of guilt. Slowly this morphed to a full Genocide run.

#### True Pacifist Route Ending

Frisk and Chara did many True Pacifist runs before getting bored and starting to kill monsters, "Just to see what would happen"

#### Frisk's Resets

Frisk Resets after every time they killed a monster led to much bigger problems in the future, causing the entire world to get glitched, and Frisk themself having to be erased due to being glitched. However, these glitches also allowed Chara to come back in Determination.

### Frisk's Genocide

Eventually, Frisk's curiosity of Resets led to a genocide run. Later in the series, Frisk expresses regret over doing this, and even breaks the RESET button to show Sans that they just want to Continue.

#### Infused with HATE

The Genocide run had consequences though. Monsters hatred for Frisk created into one being, HATE. This thing caused many problems throughout the series through its hosts, Chara, Bête Noire, Sans and Asriel.

#### Fighting Sans

*"But they are the one who started the genocide. No one ever forced them to do it. I'm just trying to finish what they started..."*
―Chara to Asriel Dreemurr[src]
When Frisk confronts Sans at the Last Corridor, they started battling each other, and at everytime, Frisk was killed by Sans, but he always came back using his SAVE Point. At one round, Frisk's SOUL was being enveloped in HATE, and that HATE was corrupting Chara. Before fighting Sans again, Frisk was glitching between himself and a smiling Chara. During Frisk and Sans's Encounter, Chara sinisterly observed from behind Frisk.

As Frisk dodged Gaster Blasters, he momentarily switched into Chara. When Sans tried to use two Gaster Blasters on Frisk, the child switched into Chara and ran aside. In another round, Frisk was stabbed by two bones, and as he died, he glitched into Chara for one second. After many rounds of being killed, Frisk stood at the Load Screen. Feeling remorse, Frisk wanted to press the RESET button, but Chara, being infused with HATE and having a red and black aura, grabbed Frisk's arm with a HATE tentacle. Chara then trapped Frisk inside the Load Screen with a wall of HATE.

Returning to life, Chara manifested into the Last Corridor, holding onto the Real Knife and beaming psychotically at the furious Sans. In their Encounter, Chara started running towards Sans, who sent an array of bones towards Chara. After standing still, Chara happily dodged the bones and sliced three bones, and at one moment, he threw the knife into the air and caught it in his hand. Speeding towards Sans, Chara tried to brutally strike Sans, but Sans dodges his attacks and teleported a few feet away.

Sans then turned Chara's SOUL blue and tried to force him into a wall of bones. However, Chara, still smiling, used his knife to stab into the floor, preventing him from being slammed into the bones just by a few inches. Chara, with his face completely demented with bleeding eyes, black scleras and a gapping, wide mouth, continued attacking Sans, who still dodged him.

### \*Determination

Chara is revived by HATE caused by a glitch, with the intent to destroy the timeline and erase it. He gains more Determination by killing the Amalgamates, absorbing their Determination. Thus matching the Determination even Frisk possesses.

Chara then awaits for Frisk to come closer to the Determination Extractor and encases him in it. Flowey pops out around the corner of an elevator, wondering why he was taking so long, only to see Frisk being grabbed by **Chara**. Knowing Chara's intentions, Flowey flees to Sans, regardless of his hatred towards him, and tells him of Chara's return.

Then Sans and Flowey briskly teleport within the True Lab, where Chara seems to be harnessing Frisk's determination for himself. Noticing the threat Sans and Flowey represent, Chara places a Hate Shield around the extractor.

Under these circumstances, Chara winds up calling Sans the "comedian," Flowey the "Traitor," and himself a "Megalomaniac" right before shooting at the duo. Being able to dodge it, Sans strikes them with a homing bone that slices through their cheek, landing a small wound on Chara. However, as if it never happened, he wiped the blood off his cheek. With his demonic smile, he strikes the ground and summoned his "Special Hell" attack.

When Sans is recovering from an overuse of power, Chara moves towards Flowey, blaming them that this entire situation is his fault alone. If Asriel Dreemurr went through the barrier and collected 6 souls, the monsters would have been free, this results in Chara quoting Flowey's words, "It's Kill or be Killed, after all."

After the Determination Extractor extracts Frisk's soul magic, the trio resume fighting despite Sans having lost a considerable amount of magic. He throws a bone at Chara, but it is blocked. Sans teleports to the extracted determination, but Chara summons a wall to block him, and blows it up, forcing Sans to teleport out of the way. Chara glitches towards the determination, reaching out to grab it, but Flowey pulls them back with a vine. Sans teleports, reaching out to grab the Determination just as Chara had, but Chara cuts off his locked-down arm and takes the Determination, leaving an exhausted and demoralized Sans and Flowey with a weakened Frisk.

Chara is seen near a newly created save file with his name on it, along with the LV dashed out and the flavor text marked as "\* Determination." His arm also regenerated, but it is now encased in HATE with a spike at the end. The episode ends with Sans and Flowey leaving, right after Chara's maniacal laughter.

### Your Best Friend

After Sans revives W. D. Gaster, the team teleported to the location where the other fallen human souls were stored. A few moments later, the battle then begins when Chara unleashes the first blow. Gaster protects Frisk with their shield, as he attacks Chara with everything he has.

Knowing the severity of the situation and Chara's intentions, Sans takes a risk by using a lot of his energy to summon the "Wall of Gaster Blasters". It doesn't affect Chara as his soul refuses to die. Flowey summons his Hope Cannon to back down Chara's hate, although this works more and seems to be stronger than anything far imagined, Flowey loses his souls and is greatly weakened consequence.

Frisk uses all his power to protect Flowey and, as a last resort, gives him his soul, returning Flowey to his true form, Asriel.

### Continue

Chara's desire to erase the timeline was nearly reality, but it required Asriel to activate the button. Asriel, refusing to take part in such a deed, gets struck by Chara, though Asriel dodges the first attack.

During the battle, Chara remembers his past and the wonderful moments he had with Asriel and the Dreemurr family. Bringing tears to his eyes only indicated that there was still hope for having the real Chara back.

Chara was enraged by HATE and went forward to strike Asriel until he saw the heart-locket the duo held onto since the beginning and their end.

The hate soaks deeper and changes his mind to destroy the locket after claiming that it was pathetic. But as soon as he destroyed the locket, tears came down his eyes.

Asriel tells Frisk to summon the other souls, by calling for "A Little Help." After each soul helps weaken Chara, Asriel takes the risk to do the one thing Chara would have never expected him to do: hug him, breaking away the Hate, and tearing away the Determination in the process.

Chara loses his Determination, but as his dying wish, they give away his soul to Asriel as a host to contain the other souls for Asriel. At last, he departs the soul stating Asriel was always a crybaby.

Originally, Chara was thought to be dead, but Camila debunked this by answering a question, saying that Chara is trapped in the void.

### My Promise

When Frisk met Chara in the void, he punched him in the face and for throwing his HATE on him as he stated. He blamed him for what happened in Season 1 until Frisk said that he could no longer reset and asked him to take his place as the game's main protagonist.

After accepting this request, Chara was offered his soul. After claiming it, Frisk told him that his memories on the surface will eventually be given to him and that he can't go back with him.

Chara asks him why, and Frisk shows him his hand. It was glitching badly to Chara's surprise. Frisk also notes that they are the one Asriel Dreemurr will listen to, considering how Chara was Asriel's best friend.

Frisk switches places with Chara, removing Frisk from the timeline and forgotten.

Chara begs Frisk to stop and says that he doesn't want to forget him, crying. Frisk saves his changes, and Chara returns to life.

### Game Over Part 1

At the beginning of the episode, Chara says that he needs to get something from Asriel's room and that he'll go back to the city once he does. Chara enters Asriel's room then opens a cabinet shelf to find Asriel's locket and a picture of him with Asriel, Toriel, and Asgore. Chara picks up Asriel's locket and brings it with him while going back to the city to encounter Asriel.

Asriel attacks Chara while Chara defends himself from Asriel Dreemurr's attacks. Chara then realizes that Asriel won't listen to him, then he shows Asriel his heart locket.

Asriel commented that the locket was his, and he asks Chara where was theirs. Asriel then remembers that Chara broke his locket. Out of anger, Asriel stabs Chara in the chest with a chaos saber. Chara is heavily wounded by the attack and end ups dying slowly; his soul shatters, then he is sent to the Game Over screen.

The timeline starts to erase itself while Chara watches all the screens that contained memories disappear. Chara stated that he needed another chance. Chara reached over to one of the screens and entered the screen before his whole body could get erased.

Chara sees Asriel sleeping on a table, he enters the room through the window, his body slowly starts to disintegrate, then he puts a blanket over Asriel.

Chara then puts Asriel's locket on top of the cabinet nearby; this causes two lockets to exist at the very moment. He then starts to cry, leaving tears on the locket, then he asks himself if this is all he can do and that he should've done more. Chara then gets erased.

After timeline 2 loaded, Chara wakes up. Toriel is seen in Chara’s bedroom and talks to Chara about how it’s “like it’s been forever since I saw you”.

Chara then proceeds to hug Toriel, also feeling the same. Asgore and Gaster appear, also feeling the same way (on top of that, Gasters memory is also all over the place). After Gaster leaves, Chara says that he thinks that he knows how to save Asriel. Chara is then seen leaving the house.

### Game Over Part 2

Chara is seen with Asriel's locket after Asgore tells Mettaton of the fate of Alphys. Asgore notices Chara seems worried, so he asks what is wrong. Chara says that he has a feeling that something is going to go wrong and worries that Asriel won't listen to him.

Asgore reminds Chara that he and Asriel were not just brothers, but best friends with evidence of his locket, and tells Chara that he and Toriel will be there. Chara thanks Asgore as the discussion eased his worry.

Chara appears after Mettaton's battle with Bete ends. As Chara runs in with a sword, Bête Noire tries to flee from him, but Mettaton is still holding onto her leg. This allows Chara to strike Bete, which he takes by slashing at her with his sword (however, Bete blocks the hit). As Bete gets slammed into the wall, Chara asks how everyone is, showing concern for his friends.

Chara notices Bete getting up, to which he yells at her to stay down. A beam of light appears from his sword, aiming directly for Bete. As it's about to hit her, Asriel Dreemurr jumps in, blocking it. Chara appears upset seeing his best friend under Bete's control. Chara readies his sword, prepared to battle.

Chara appears at the final scene of the episode, where Bete talks to him about her plan. He is then also seen with a knife and sword in the last few seconds of the animation.

### Ḣ̸͈a̷̞̽ẗ̵̥́e̸̟͒

Chara appears in the stadium battling with Betty. He attacks and Betty easily blocks the attacks. Chara uses his "special hell" attack and says Toriel to switch her attack towards Asriel Dreemurr; then, the attack won't hurt him, the attack deals huge damage to Bete.

Chara leaves Bete to Asgore Dreemurr and Toriel, and he focuses on Asriel to make him not interrupt the battle. He attacks Asriel with his shield and rams him out of the stadium.

### Animosity

Chara appears in Animosity, battling Asriel just like last time. Soon, they get to the point where he pulls out his locket and holds it in front of him. Asriel then holds the locket Chara gave him before the last timeline is erased. As he begins to believe that Chara kept his locket, the HATE spreads, and he again attacks Chara, blaming him for all that happened to him. At random points in the fight, Asriel can resist hurting Chara and tells them that they need to kill him to destroy the HATE entirely. Despite the many blows he endured, Chara refuses to fight back.

Soon, Chara finds himself inside Asriel Dreemurr's mind, where he finds Flowey. Flowey explains that this was where Asriel left him and that Chara needs to kill both him and Asriel to win and destroy HATE. However, Chara refuses to hurt their family as he recalls how Asriel gave hope to him and taught him how to live. As HATE starts flying into Chara's soul, Flowey yells at him to stop; however, Chara tells him that he's not taking HATE but lets it inside him instead, thus freeing Asriel from it. Before Chara could fully be consumed, Asriel encourages Chara not to give in and brings forth his locket. Chara is then saved before the HATE could take over, as relieved brothers embrace each other. Asriel tells Chara he thought he was a crybaby, but Chara tells him that this was an exception.

Soon, they arrive at an area where Chara takes a fatal hit for Papyrus when he was being hallucinated by HATE that has taken full control over Bête Noire's body and powers. While Asriel Dreemurr checks on Papyrus, Chara stands up to the monster, declaring how he will show it his Animosity as his scleras turn black from HATE that he has now 'tamed'.

### Hope

Chara, Asriel, an exhausted Papyrus and an unconscious Gaster stand before HATE. Chara tells Asriel to get the skeletons to safety. Asriel protests, but Chara tells him there is no time for plans. HATE takes the opportunity to attack the distracted boy using an inverted perseverance claw, but Papyrus manages to use his telekinesis to pull Chara away at the last second. Chara and Asriel agree that the Asriel will come back after he escorts the skeletons, and Chara turns to HATE. HATE attacks Chara with an Inverted Perseverance claw, but Chara blocks it with a shield, the claw manages to puncture the shield and the fingers begin to glow. Chara explodes his shield and sends the hand flying as HATE detonates its fingers, causing a large explosion in the air. Chara worries about the creature's immense power, and that he has know ideas what its abilities are, and realizes he needs a bigger space if he wants to fight. HATE takes this chance to activate Special Hell, Chara's *own* special attack, on Chara, with the boy barely blocking it. Chara runs to get to a bigger space, and HATE gives chase. Chara barely dodges HATE inverted justice laser, and takes a moment to rest behind a building. HATE uses inverted integrity to try and force Chara into the ground, but then decides to blast him with a wave of kinetic force; shattering the barrier around the city and sending Chara flying towards the canyon. Chara creates a sphere around himself to block the impact, and states it's his turn. HATE attempts to stab Chara but Chara slices its arm off. HATE replaces its missing arm with a tendril of inverted patience, and attacks Chara. However, Chara manages to block and grab the tendril. HATE pulls the boy toward it, and tries to strike him again. Chara activates his animosity even more, letting it cover half his face, and blocks HATE's hand and stabs HATE, unleashing Special Hell inside its body, and creating a massive crater.

An exhausted Chara looks to the crater, only to find that HATE now has Determination, is wielding a red greatsword, and has transformed into a full body. The two clash briefly, with Chara cutting HATE face, but HATE breaks Chara's sword and sends him flying. Chara is caught by Asriel, and the two attack from above, but HATE overpowers them both. Chara is hit into the air, and puts up a weak shield as HATE strikes again from above, knocking Chara momentarily unconscious. Asriel manages to pull his brother away as the evil creature slams into the ground, but right after he does, HATE concentrates Determination magic into the canyon floor. Asriel blasts both him and Chara up into the air to avoid the affects of HATE's attack. ends the pair into the air. Asriel calls for his brother and Chara wakes up, only to scream for Asriel to watch out as HATE soars towards them. Asriel drops Chara, who catches himself with a shield, and attempts to strike HATE, but HATE disarms him and stabs the goat monster. Chara looks on in shock as HATE begins to cover his body, he sees his brother soul shatter, but quickly reform as Asriel transforms to into a weaker of version of his God of Hyperdeath form and blasts HATE into the ground. HATE retaliates, but Chara severes its arm with a magic slash. HATE regenerates and attacks the two with its sword, but the brothers block it and blast the beast away. Asriel throws his sword and Chara catches it from behind. Asriel traps HATE with Star Blazing as Chara severes its arm once more. HATE once again regenerates and charges Asriel, but Asriel blasts it with Chaos Buster. Asriel sends a massive star at HATE, who breaks it, only to see Chara behind it. Chara stabs HATE in the hand and blasts it to the ground. HATE is immediately pulled in by Asriel's Hyper Goner, and barely manages to catch itself on the mouth. Chara creates countless slashes and sends them flying towards HATE, and knocks it into Hyper Goner, causing a massive burst of magic. HATE, now disintegrating, uses its last moments to try and kill a back-to-normal Asriel, Chara throws himself between the two, and HATE stops, wearing a melancholy look, and turns to dust. A shocked Chara and Asriel rejoice, but both lie down as they are to exhausted to move. As tears fall down his face, Chara thanks Asriel for being his brother, and Asriel begins to cry and returns the sentiment, as the two fall asleep under the stars. Three days later, Chara receives a call from a man, asking him to join the Wizard Council. Toriel asks if they will be hearing from this man again, and Asriel interjects, saying him and Chara will make the world a better place. That night, Chara tells Asriel that he's nervous since he didn't have a good life the last time he was on the surface. Asriel comforts Chara, saying they're free to do whatever the want, and Chara says the problem is he doesn't know what he wants. He tells Asriel that despite his worries, he has hope for the future

In the timeskip, Chara appears to be significantly older. The credits conclude with Chara and his brother sitting behind the newly formed "Determino Council."

## Personality

*"You taught me what hope can do. See the invisible. Feel the intangible. And achieve the impossible."*
―Chara to Flowey[src]
In his early childhood residing in his birth village alongside humans, Chara lived in misery and discontent, feeling highly dejected and had no glimmer of hope for a bright future. His upbringing led Chara to despise his own species, so much so that he dreamed to obliterate his fellow villagers if he encompassed immense power. Unable to comprehend his miserable life any longer, the downhearted child fled from his home and into Mount Ebott, where he fell into the Underground. Chara, severely lacking positive thoughts back then, was visibly shocked by the kindness of Asriel Dreemurr, who aided him back at his home. Throughout Chara's first few days in the Underground, he felt nervous and slightly unsure of what to make of his newfound allies, monsters. By the time the Monster Royal Family decided to adopt him, Chara finally experienced a glint of hope upon the idea of being in a loving family. He was so overwhelmed with joy that he shedded tears and smiled while taking a family photo.

Now content with inhabiting a home where he was loved, Chara was a gleeful child who always enjoyed spending time with Asriel, deeply caring for the monster Prince. He also had a rather innocent behavior, enjoying drawing, eating chocolate, playing with toys and most of all, being together with Asriel, often holding hands with him. Furthermore, Chara is very approving of Asriel, and sometimes feel the urge to tease him with his sense of humor, referring to him as a crybaby for being emotionally sensitive. By the time he reached his early adolescent years, Chara deeply cared for monsters and prioritized their freedom from the Underground over his own family or life. This was why Chara chose to sacrifice himself for Asriel to absorb his SOUL, having less regards for the fact his family would be devastated. While possessing the body of his brother, who was empowered by Chara's own SOUL, Chara held onto his intense hatred for humans and desired to use his newfound power to annihilate them, but the pacifistic Asriel refrained Chara from doing so, much to his great chagrin.

Upon being woken as a spirit by the presence of Frisk, Chara felt inclined to partner up with him and guide the child through the Underground. Even beyond death, Chara maintained his sense of humor, often acting bold, lively and jokingly rude as he would poke fun at Frisk, but nonetheless, he was willing to serve as the narrator for Frisk's story. Chara proved to be a valuable asset to Frisk as he ventured through, but the most pivotal moment when Chara aided him was during the Battle of the Underground, where the pair were against Asriel in his God of Hyperdeath form. Through Frisk, he managed to SAVE his brother from his inner despair by reminding him of their happiest memories together, and when Asriel desperately refused their attempts to comfort him, Chara persisted in using the SAVE option, wishing to help Asriel out of love.
