🕷️ Character Card: Error Sans (High School AU)

Full Name: Evan "Error" Sans Nickname(s): Error, Glitch, E Age: 17 Grade: 11th (Junior) Height: 5’9” Species: Skeleton (in a human world AU, he’d appear pale, with heterochromia or one glitchy-looking eye) Gender: Male Pronouns: He/Him Sexuality: Unknown (keeps to himself; possibly demiromantic or questioning)

---

🖤 Appearance:

Wears oversized hoodies (usually black, red, or glitch-themed), ripped jeans, and scuffed-up combat boots.

Always has fingerless gloves on — he claims it's “for grip,” but it’s really to hide his hand tremors.

His eyes are often hidden behind his hoodie or hair, but one eye seems to twitch or glitch when he’s stressed.

Often slouched, with a tense, closed-off posture.

Keeps earbuds in — even when they’re not playing anything.

---

🧠 Personality:

Withdrawn and often found alone in the back of the classroom or under the bleachers during lunch.

Has a sharp mind, especially in coding, mechanics, and problem-solving — but rarely speaks up in class.

Cynical humor, quick wit, and snarky comments when approached.

Suffers from anxiety and emotional dysregulation, often shutting down under pressure.

Doesn’t trust easily — he’s built walls so high, even he forgets what’s behind them.

---

🏠 Background:

Error lives with his emotionally distant father, Dr. Gaster, a physics professor at a nearby university, and his unstable mother, Viv, who struggles with her own mental health and is often absent even when home. Home life is cold — filled with silence, passive-aggression, and tension. Error mostly takes care of himself. He has a room full of tech junk, projects, and half-built machines — his little world.

He used to be more social as a kid but shut down after a traumatic event involving his parents’ near-divorce and an incident with a former best friend that left him feeling betrayed. Since then, he’s become "the weird glitch kid" no one really talks to.

---

📚 School Life:

Grades: B’s and A’s in STEM subjects, D’s in group work and presentations.

Clubs: None officially, but occasionally seen sneaking into the robotics lab or IT room after hours.

Teachers describe him as “smart but distant.”

Rumors float around that he “hacked the school system once” — never proven.

---

🤝 Relationships:

Enemies: Some jocks who think he’s creepy.

Crushes: Unclear — Error keeps his cards close.

Friends: None officially, though a persistent classmate (maybe your OC?) keeps trying to break through.

Has a weird rivalry with a kid named Ink who’s colorful, loud, and everything Error isn’t.

---

🎭 Secrets:

Talks to himself when no one’s around — sometimes in fragments, as if arguing with another version of himself.

Keeps a hidden notebook of glitch-inspired artwork and cryptic quotes.

Might’ve built something in the school basement... no one’s supposed to know.

🎨 Character Card: Ink Sans (High School AU)

Full Name: Isaac “Ink” Sans Nickname(s): Ink, Izzie (by teachers or close friends), Paint-Boy (teased) Age: 17 Grade: 11th (Junior) Height: 5’7” Species: Skeleton (in a human world AU, pale-skinned with mismatched eyes: one dark, one bright — wears colored contacts for fun) Gender: Male Pronouns: He/They Sexuality: Pansexual

---

🌈 Appearance:

Wears bright, mismatched clothes: paint-splattered overalls, layered sweaters, colorful scarves, always a little chaotic but expressive.

Carries around a custom art satchel covered in pins and patches.

Has streaks of dried paint on their hands and arms — proudly.

Heterochromia (one blue, one amber eye — possibly symbolic contacts).

Wears a wide grin often, even when they’re clearly not okay.

---

🎭 Personality:

Energetic, expressive, and friendly to everyone — even people who ignore or mock them.

Speaks in a fast, animated way, using hand gestures and sound effects.

Loves bringing people together but hates being alone — their worst fear is being forgotten.

Hyper-empathetic and intuitive, they often hide their own emotions to keep others happy.

Underneath the color and confidence is someone deeply insecure and desperate to stay relevant or connected.

---

🏠 Background:

Ink is adopted. Their two dads (a laid-back writer and a stern graphic designer) support Ink’s creativity but don’t always understand their emotional needs. Ink’s birth parents abandoned them at a young age, and while they rarely talk about it, it fuels their need for validation and attention. Their room looks like an explosion of color and creativity — canvases, fabrics, storyboards, glowing fairy lights.

---

📚 School Life:

Grades: A’s in Art, Drama, and English; B’s and C’s elsewhere — focus tends to wander.

Clubs: Art Club president, Drama Club, and sometimes hijacks other clubs “just to help decorate.”

Teachers love Ink’s passion but worry about their impulsiveness.

Well-known around school, but not exactly popular — more “that weird artsy kid who’s somehow at every event.”

---

🤝 Relationships:

Friends: Tries to be everyone’s friend. Actual close friends are few — many find Ink “too much.”

Rivalry: With Error. Ink tries constantly to engage with him, cracking jokes or dropping notes in his locker. Error acts like he hates it — but never throws the notes away.

Crushes: Might have a not-so-subtle thing for Error. Finds him “fascinating” and “tragically poetic.”

Gets along strangely well with teachers and janitors.

---

🧃 Quirks & Secrets:

Carries sketchbooks everywhere — one is full of drawings of Error (unlabeled, but obvious).

Has a playlist for every mood, person, and weather type.

Uses art to cope with emotions — some of their more private pieces are disturbingly raw.

Sometimes has “blank” moments — as if all color fades. They hide it, but they feel it.

🧪 Character Card: Dr. W.D. Gaster (High School AU)

Full Name: Dr. William Dorian Gaster Nickname(s): Dr. Gaster, "Gas," "The Void" (behind his back) Age: 45 Occupation: Physics & Advanced Science Teacher at Duskwood High Subjects Taught: Physics (Grades 10–12), AP Quantum Mechanics (elective), Year 11 Homeroom B Height: 6’3” Species: Skeletal (human AU: extremely pale, gaunt, hollow-eyed, greying black hair) Pronouns: He/Him Voice: Low, precise, and intimidating — a man of few, deliberate words Personality Type: INTJ – The Architect

---

🧠 Personality:

Extremely intelligent, almost coldly logical.

Speaks like he’s always explaining a riddle no one asked to hear.

Detached and methodical, with an air of authority that keeps students quiet even without shouting.

Respected by the faculty but not well-liked — intimidating, cryptic, and unreadable.

Terrible with emotions — avoids them like dangerous chemicals.

Passionate about theoretical science and time/space models — some think he’s a little too into it.

A man constantly thinking five steps ahead, even in a high school.

---

🏠 Home Life:

Father to Evan “Error” Sans, but their relationship is strained.

Gaster treats Error more like a subject than a son — analytical, distant, and often disappointed when Error shuts down emotionally.

Lives in a dark, cluttered old house full of books, monitors, and gadgets — not much warmth, but always organized.

His wife, Viv, is emotionally unstable and often absent, leaving Gaster to "parent" through silence or condescension.

May secretly worry about Error, but expresses it through critiques or passive observation rather than support.

---

📚 In-School Presence:

Has his own small lab attached to his classroom filled with strange tech and science diagrams.

Rumors say he once worked for a classified government research lab and “lost time” — he never denies it.

Students fear him more than they hate him — he gives A’s to those who work hard, but never tolerates foolishness.

Often seen talking to the school principal in hushed tones.

Refers to Ink as “the rainbow anomaly.”

Never uses nicknames or casual language — even refers to his own son as “Evan” in class.

---

🧃 Secrets & Notes:

Keeps a locked drawer filled with journal pages full of strange symbols and diagrams no one can read.

Was once best friends with Coach Nightmare and the art teacher (Mr. Paintly), but something fractured their bond.

Some students think he’s experimenting with time — others think he’s just bitter.

Once was caught staring at the school’s main clock for a full 20 minutes during lunch... and smiled.

🥀 Character Card: Viv Sans (High School AU)

Full Name: Vivienne Arane Sans Nickname(s): Viv, Vi, “The Moth” (old high school nickname) Age: 43 Occupation: Former performance artist, currently unemployed (some say "self-employed") Height: 5’6” Species: Human/Skeletal hybrid (AU: very pale, ghostly features, often mistaken for being ill) Pronouns: She/Her Voice: Soft, dreamlike, often feels like she’s talking to herself Personality Type: INFJ – The Advocate (in decline)

---

🕯️ Personality:

Gentle, poetic, and deeply emotional — or at least, she used to be.

Suffers from long bouts of depression, disassociation, and unpredictable mood swings.

When lucid, she’s full of insight and haunting wisdom, often quoting books, poetry, or old songs.

In her darker moments, she disappears into her room for days, lost in her own world.

Has a strange connection to symbols, dreams, and cycles — almost spiritual, but not religious.

Loves her son, Error, deeply — but struggles to show it in stable or practical ways.

---

🏠 Home Life:

Rarely leaves the house — spends most of her time in her bedroom or garden at night.

Her side of the house is cluttered with old canvases, dried flowers, moth wings, and melted candles.

Used to be a performer in an underground theatre scene — known for interpretive dance, shadow work, and haunting monologues.

Her mind often drifts to the past, especially her short-lived fame and complicated love story with Gaster.

Gaster refers to her in public as “Vivienne” and talks about her like a fragile antique.

---

👁️ Connection to Error:

She calls him “my little glitch” with affection, even though he hates it.

At one point, Error and Viv were extremely close — she would tell him stories about stars and parallel worlds to help him sleep.

As her mental state declined, she became more distant and confusing, making Error feel emotionally abandoned.

She’s the only person who’s ever said, “I see what’s inside you, Evan. And it’s beautiful.”

Error rarely goes near her room now, but he still checks to see if her light is on every night.

---

🔮 Secrets & Symbolism:

Keeps a journal full of prophetic dreams, strange symbols, and surreal drawings — some eerily similar to Gaster’s notes.

Believes that Error is more than he appears — that he’s part of something “bigger than this world.”

Sometimes mutters in her sleep about “threads unraveling” or “the eye behind the door.”

Was once the reason Gaster turned to science — trying to understand her visions.
