## Physical description

### **Description**

#### **Personality**

Maple is the same in most ways personality wise to his original timeline with some small differences.

He is friendly, kind, and very nice to most people. Although, he can be a bit more vindictive, flirtatious, and cheeky. A bit less responsible as well.

He loves dark humor and pranks, often letting his childish side come out among friends and his mates.

#### **Appearance**

His appearance has minor differences to the original timeline. Those differences will be highlighted a different color.

Maple has a light hazelnut butter bone color as normal, but seems to have eyes that are more on the golden brown side compared to his original.

His style of clothes remain relatively the same as well, but has some slight variations

He wears a tan lab coat with dark brown bordering the rims of the sleeves and bottom. A dark brown belt around his waist holds his schedule book, AU navigator and the belt buckle has his Multiversal Charity emblem on it. He wears no shirt, showing of his ribcage and ecto stomach, and tight dual colored brown and cream swirly patterned leggings. Another belt hangs low across his hip with spacepops, a mini marble cake, test tubes with syrup, and a holster with a tranquilizer gun in it.

Maple also has a diverse array of other sweets attached to his person. A bouquet of cotton candy and golden chocolate eggs in his maple scarf, cinnamon sticks in his breast pocket, and wafers stuffed in his custom syrup shoes, among many more hidden treats.

On his head is a pair of round, wire frame glasses with yellow shaded lenses. He only wears them in front of his mates.

### **Skills/Abilities**

**Healing essence**: The syrup his body creates is edible and extremely healthy. The natural sap can restore HP and improve stats as well.

**Hyper-Potency Overdrive(Hypodrive)**: Maple's Hypodrive form is more sensual and devious than the original. He becomes a rather wicked sugar demon and doesn't have the best control in this form.

**Super strength?**: Maple is very strong for a relatively short Papyrus and is able to lift ridiculously heavy things, including his little brother, who weighs over a ton mind you.

**Sugar Rush**: During a friendly battle with him, Maple will heal an opponent with candies. Doing so will have the potential drawback of giving them a "Sugar Rush" status, which causes discoordination and erratic speed in movements from excessive sugar. Once the effect ends it causes a crash that slowly reduces HP to a preset amount, similar to karmic retribution.

**Sticky Sou**l: Maple can turn a creature he battles soul "Sticky", which hinders movement and can cause an inability to jump, or even move at all, for a short time.

### **Relationships**

#### Saccharo (SugarSaga Sans)

Maple isn't as attached to Saccharo at the hip as his original. He of course loves him dearly, but doesn't worry as much about him and knows his little brother is capable as a Sans.

He becomes highly frustrated when anyone suggests that Saccharo can't feel emotions and is just an empty vessel.

Because his job is so demanding, Maple gave guardianship of Saccharo to SS!Grillby. He was worried at first about how Saccharo would handle the change, but was glad that he seemed to attach to Shakezi pretty quickly,

He learned and taught Saccha sign language to properly communicate with him.

#### W.D Caster

Maple's father and former mentor.

He doesn't like to talk about his father much and becomes choked up when he does.

#### Tanger/Swap Papyrus #37

Tanger is one of Maple's datemates. They were introduced by Zenith, who had pretty much set up the whole relationship after realizing his brother had a crush.

The two have a very healthy relationship and enjoy visiting each other's Aus. Maple even convinced Tanger to stop smoking and much to Zenith's pleasure has gotten him into hobbies that stop him lazing around as much.

The only thing the two butt heads on is their other datemate, Strife, who Tanger does not trust and feels is a danger to Maple. Maple does not share this belief and always defends his trauma ridden mate.

#### Strife/Disbelief Papyrus #3

Maple first met Strife while visiting the omega timeline on a charity run, where the other Papyrus was not having a very good time adjusting. He clearly was suffering from a lot of trauma and was receiving a fair share of backlash for his role in a Dusttale related timeline.

Maple felt bad for Strife and made an effort to talk to him against warnings that he was dangerous. It went about as well as one would expect. Strife accidently harming Maple while having an episode. And you would think that was enough to make Maple keep his distance... But of course he didn't, he was a Papyrus after all. Maple was determined to help his counterpart no matter what.

Strife considered Maple a complete nuisance for a long while. Stubbornly threatening him to get lost and being down right mean and grouchy. Even when Strife had demanded to return to his own dead timeline, preferring to stay alone in his sorrows, Maple still found a way to stay in touch. He would leave little candies and cards with inspirational jokes for him with overly exaggerated cutesy doodles all over them.

It was irritating. It was dumb... And yet... it was also oddly endearing. Strife never willing to admit that he started to look forward to the little notes and treats, even though he didn't eat sweets and simply saved it all up in jars as keepsakes.

And eventually, after catching Maple sneaking around with his next array of gifts, Strife gave in to the inevitable desire to speak to him and the two established a proper bond with Maple beginning to compare his visits to dates, much to Strife's flustered dismay.

Maple soon introduced Strife to Tanger, the two unfortunately immediately rubbing the other the wrong way. But for the love of Maple they try to make it work and not chew each others throats out.

#### Soya/Farmtale Sans #91

It's unknown when the two met, but Maple and Soya have a mutual business partnership going. Both supporting other Aus through food trading and having a combined effort of selling sugars, treats, crops and animals.

Outside of being business partners however, they are overall just very friendly with each other.

#### **Chantilly (Sans)**

Maple's protégé.

Maple had rescued Chantilly when he found the Sans dying from lack of magic in a space between voids. The only was Maple found to save him was to inject a raw sugar element into his soul. When he did so, it mutated Chantilly into a Sugar Monster.

It took Maple some time to rehabilitate the Sans before he seemed strong enough to relocate to somewhere like the omega timeline, but through some series of events, Chantilly became Maple's assistant instead. And soon Chantilly became a full staple member of the charity.

Maple was actually the one to name him Chantilly since the lost Sans didn't seem to remember his own AU.

Chantilly clearly took some of his style after Maple as well with his scarf and some other small things.

### **Medical History**

Maple has the exact same medical history as his original.

#### **Physical Health**

* **Soul Status**: Stable | Hybrid maple element
* **Body/Bones**: No visible damage
* **Ecto-Capabilities**: Always formed | No visible damage

#### **Mental Health**

* **PTSD**: Very small traumatic flashbacks have been observed, but nothing too detrimental.
* Outside of minor PTSD he appears very stable.

#### **Other**

* **Amalgaphobia**: Maple is extremely afraid of amalgamates and will fly into a full panic attack if he encounters one.
* **Severe Cold Intolerance**: Maple cannot handle the cold in any form. When exposed to chilly temperatures he becomes sick, very lethargic, and has fainting spells.

### **Trivia**

His favorite food is Pumpkin Spice Cake

Maple's fear of Amalgamates is more than likely caused by "the accident".

He cries maple syrup.

Unlike his original, Maple is pretty open with sharing his natural element with others and isn't nearly as uncomfortable doing so.

Maple actually doesn't like syrup himself. He claims it's like eating himself or a family member even though he knows it's silly. Still, it doesn't bother him if others enjoy it.

All the candies and supplies he has is gotten and replenished from different Aus. He gets them for free as donations for the charity.

Cold temperatures make Maple sluggish and tired. He prefers to be pleasantly warm.

* He only learned this fact when he went to visit Tanger in Underswap Snowdin, borderline passed out in the cold and went into a hibernatively tired state.
* He still goes to snowy places sometimes, but has to buddle up in many layers and a large jacket to keep warm.

Maple has a love for all types of jokes and harmless pranks. He adores dark humor the most however.

* One of his favorite pranks is to replace the salt in a shaker with sugar.
* He is a mischievous, sneaky pranking menace, but only Saccha, Tanger, Strife and Soya knows about it.
* His pranking streak is at 350+
