## Biography

Anomaly #47 was a surprise to both Ajax and Dahlia when it emerged from the fused biomass that consisted of Mason, Thomas, along with the trashed biomass that was being used for Dahlia's fourth "child". Anomaly #47 was nearly tossed into the incinerator, that was until Dahlia stopped Ajax from doing so, the wicked woman deciding that the anomaly could prove as a very valuable test subject. Anomaly #47 wasn't treated like the others when growing up, as it was treated more as an object instead of a being. Dahlia ran countless tests on Anomaly #47, each one seemed to be more and more painful than the last, as these tests seemed promising at the time, though it's be shown that decades down the road, the very tests that Dahlia put Anomaly #47 through would lead to something far more destructive than she could've ever imagined.

Years would pass and the experiments wouldn't stop; several times a day, Anomaly #47 was forced to endure painful and brutal testing, his mental state slowly decaying, despite only being several years old. Dahlia knew of the effects that this would have on her "child" but she really didn't care, given these experiments continued to carry out for most of The Anomaly's life. Well over a decade after his creation, he was allowed to finally exit the Laboratory, seeing the outside world for the first time was quite the experience for him. This was also the first time that Anomaly #47 met those who his parents told him were his 'brothers' and while he wasn't sure how to feel at first, he quickly grew attached to Mason, the two getting along quite well. As for him and Thomas, things weren't the best, but they could've been worse. Mason and Thomas had decided to give Anomaly #47 the name of Percy, given to him by Thomas, who had just finished reading a book which was quite popular among humans. This book series is based around Greek mythology and the main character of the story was a boy named Percy. Unlike his other brothers, there was no real reason to why they had given Anomaly #47 the name Percy, however, the skeleton did begin to take a huge liking to Greek Mythology (Thomas of course having introduced him to it).

With each passing day, Mason and Percy would continue to bond, however Percy was starting to become rather distant with Thomas and their newest brother, who Thomas had given the name Arthur. There was something odd about Arthur, and Percy didn't like it, though he wasn't sure what it was. The two would almost continuously fight, Percy losing every time due to his rather fragile body (this was caused by the many experiments that he had been forced to go through). Arthur never wanted to truly harm Percy, though he was always forced to fight back in self defense. While these fights resumed and got to the point where they happened almost daily. Percy was slowly starting to give up on everything he once cared about, he used to be a quiet and friendly boy, now he's nothing more than a shell of who he once was, the skeleton now entering a state of depression. He even stopped showing up to the tests that he was required to attend, and this infuriated Dahlia, and that's when the abuse started. Each time that Percy didn't attend his testing, he'd be brutally beaten, almost to the point of death, however, Dahlia ensured that he'd survive, she couldn't allow her perfect test subject to die off, not yet anyways.

Percy had soon noticed that Arthur and their father weren't home nearly as often as they used to be, the two (along with Alphys) now having begun on a new project that the King himself had assigned to them. Percy hated how lucky Arthur was, as given Arthur was needed for the project that had begun, Dahlia wasn't allowed to test on him, as this only diverted more of the experiments onto Arthur's brothers. The experiments, the abuse, it was starting to become too much for Percy, the skeleton even tried committing suicide on several occasions, however after the first few attempts, Percy was practically forced to stay by Dahlia's side, almost as if he was a dog to the sick woman, it truly disgusted him. The pain had become so common that he basically grew numb to it, the skeleton now being fueled by his boiling rage, until one day, he snapped. Percy had attempted to murder his mother, having grabbed a sharp piece of metal from the lab. He had almost gotten away with it, but Dahlia had taken notice of the aggression that Percy had been showing throughout the previous days, so she had instilled several "safety measures" to prevent anything from happening to her, or her experiment. Percy was moments from thrusting the pointed metal shard into his mother's back when he suddenly froze, seconds later, blacking out entirely.

After the attempted murder, the experiments had become almost unbearable, the poor skeleton being forced to endure well over half of all the testing that Dahlia continued with. Though one day, everything changed; Dahlia had been testing on Percy as normal, though a siren began to blare through the lab, furthermore, the entirety of the Underground. Dahlia had quickly fled to investigate the issue, leaving Percy alone in the lab, little did the skeleton know that this would be the beginning of the end. Percy had stumbled across an object of sorts, though he couldn't explain what it looked like, as it seemed to be constantly morphing and shaping. The object was within a decently large jar, and given it looked rather important, Percy smashed it without a care in the world; Percy now having sealed his fate. Moments after the jar had been broken, there was a flash of bright orange mixed with red, which was followed by a loud explosion. Percy now freaking out didn't have any time to react before being hit by a gust of wind, then blacking out.

## Personality

Percy wasn’t a very social person, as he rarely spoke to anyone he didn’t truly trust. During the many years he spent within the sublevels of the laboratory, that was all he knew, the experiments, the pain, and the torture that he endured for so long, though once he was finally allowed out of the lab, he had quickly discovered that there was so much more to life than just tests and the torment and suffering he’s endured day and night for his entire life. Percy, despite how reclusive he was to those outside his family, really did try his best, though he quickly found out that what he considered “his best” simply wasn’t enough. The ways his brothers were treated, it was very different to how he was treated. Their mother always spoke to him like a mutt of sorts, one who wasn’t allowed to really speak unless spoken too. Percy got along quite well with Mason, the two often bonding together. Percy spent the most time with Mason than anyone else in his family, and while his relationship with Thomas was alright, it always seemed that he was butting heads with Arthur, just something about him felt off to Percy. He never really had many interests or hobbies, given he never had the chance to truly find something he enjoyed, as the most joyous moments of his life were most likely when he’d be out with all his brothers, either visiting Waterfall or Snowdin.

Percy could become rather aggressive at times, though for the most part, he always remained passive. If angered, Percy could be compared to that of a rabid animal, as he’ll scratch and claw at anyone and anything around him. There were several times where Percy had left nothing but disaster wherever he went after having been angered. It takes Percy far longer to calm down than any of his brothers, this being due to the mental impact that his mother has left him with. Percy also suffers from severe PTSD, this mostly coming from his mother for obvious reasons, the many days of abuse and painful tests weren’t something someone could easily forget. Percy also hated going out into public places, as large crowds were always something he hated, the sense of being stared at by so many people always made him feel that he was being criticized for “not being good enough” despite how most people most likely didn’t even know of his existence. School was an absolute nightmare for Percy too, as he was simply the one who would tag along with his brothers, specifically Mason. Both Thomas and Mason had their friend groups, while Percy was more times than not, by himself. The bullying and insulting that he received from school didn’t help his mental state either and as time progressed, his condition only continued to worsen.

Hatred. It’s a feeling that Percy knows better than anyone else. The hatred he had for his mother was most likely the strongest emotion he ever had. He truly wished the worst for her, and he still despises anyone who reminds him of her, in any way, shape, or form. Percy never forgot anything his mother did to him throughout his life, and even after his failed attempt to murder her, he only continued scheming. As time passed, he slowly became more and more aggressive, even beginning to attack his brothers. From here forward, his life slowly began to worsen as he continued spiraling down into the endless pit of his own insanity and madness. Percy never was able to find a love interest before StaticTale’s downfall, though there was someone that had peaked his interest, but he never had the chance to learn more about her when his mother, the very person he despised more than life itself, took everything away from him.

## Abilities

### Tainted Bones

Percy is able to cast small and slow bones, these bones often doing next to no damage, as it’s been proven that the damage they do ranges somewhere between 0.05 and 0.5 damage, meaning a monster with 1HP could survive a hit from these bones. These bones are also so weak that they can only destroy microscopic objects.

### Tainted Blasters

Percy can cast small blaster-like objects using the miniscule amount of magic he has at his disposal. These blasters are no larger than a medium sized rock, and they function practically exactly the same as the bones, however, despite how these blasters are able to deal rapid amounts of damage, the amount they do it only 0.01, though they also have a chance of dealing 5% of someone’s total Hp.

### Negativity

If Percy experiences immense amounts of negativity or hatred, he’ll be encased in a faint black aura, this ability now increasing the damage and speed of himself and his attacks. By this point, it’s almost impossible to calm Percy down and the best thing to do is to wait for him to calm down, though knocking him unconscious would also do the trick. These abilities are most effective against those who are weaker than Percy, otherwise most of his attacks can simply be negated (for example, Dahlia wouldn’t be impacted by any of his attacks due to how powerful she is.)

#### Dismembered Cry

An ability that Percy gains only when feeling emotions of true hatred. Percy can let out an ear piercing scream that’ll stun anybody within a small radius of where he stands (the stun duration varying on the strength of those affected), while on a far larger radius, Percy can temporarily deafen anyone who hears his scream. The sheer power that’s required for Percy to pull this attack off often results in his jaw falling off, though he can simply reattach it.

#### Ray of Antipathy

Percy can fire small, black rays from his palms, these rays not doing much damage, but instead act as a major debuff. They can decrease movement speed and attack power for a short duration of time. He can also heat them up to a certain degree to which they’ll cause minor burns.

#### Pure Hatred

Probably Percy’s most powerful attack, but he can harness all of his hatred and negativity into one, purely black sphere, this sphere being about the size of a basketball. This sphere will then drop to the ground, now creating a black puddle-like shape on the ground. After fifteen seconds, the puddle will explode upwards, engulfing and inflicting damage to anything within it. This is the only ability Percy has that allows him to exceed his normal destruction level, as he can level entire houses with this ability. The puddle that’s summoned also tends to stun or paralyze anyone within it, this being what makes the attack so lethal to weaker monsters and humans.

## Weaknesses

Percy has probably the weakest vessel out of all his brothers, as he’s endured the most amount of abuse and experimentation from his mother. Furthermore, mentally, he’s also the worst off, this often resulting in him not being able to sleep. His attacks are also very, very weak, as he doesn’t deal much damage (this excluding his negativity abilities).
