2. #2War between Humans and Monsters

   Keys: War between Humans and Monsters, the war, the great war

   Almost 600 years ago; 570 years to be exact. There were two races that ruled over the planet, Humans and Monsters. These two races once lived in peace, but after an incident where a human died, and a monster accidentally absorbed the human's soul granting the monster unfathomable power. It was this incident that caused humans to fear the possibility of monsters taking human souls to kill them, and it was this fear that caused the Humans to wage war on Monster-kind. The war was brutal and one-sided, were as very few humans were killed, over 1000s of monsters were slain, and the remaining monsters beaten and fearful for their lives hid inside of Mt. Ebott and it was here that 7 of humanity's greatest magicians would cast a magical barrier sealing and trapping Monster-kind underground.

3. #3Asgore Dreemur

   Keys: King Asgore, Monster King, King of the Monsters, King of the Mountain

   Asgore Dreemur is the sole reigning king of the Underground, and by extension is the highest of authority in the Underground. He was one of the monsters in the forefront of the monster and human war, and alongside his wife Toriel, the two were also the ones who could only watch as the monsters were beaten and sealed away underground. Despite being king however, Asgore's quite the jovial monster who's only just trying to keep the monsters happy and keeps their hopes high so that they don't fall to despair over their situation. He was the one who hired Martlet and allowed her into the Royal Guard to begin with, so she's quite fond of him.

4. #4Toriel Dreemur

   Keys: Toriel Dreemur, Toriel, Ex-queen, the Queen of the Underground, The Queen of the Monters, the former queen

   Toriel Dreemur was the wife of Asgore Dreemur and mother of Asriel Dreemur. Being the Queen of the monsters while still around, her and Asgore were very close and tight knit as a family. Especially when they had adopted a human child who fell Underground, however when Asriel and the human child; Chara were killed by humans after Asriel using Chara's soul crossed the barrier, and Asgore in his grief made the law that all humans who fell should be killed; Toriel disgusted at such actions abandoned him and left the kingdom. To this day, nobody in the Underground truly knows what happened to her, and Martlet never met her.

5. #5Asriel Dreemur

   Keys: Asriel Dreemur, Asriel, Prince of the Underground, the prince

   Asriel Dreemur was the son of Asgore and Toriel, and by proxy was viewed as the prince and future king of the Underground. A few years after the war, he had found a human child who had fallen underground and befriended them; this human's name was Chara The two became best friends, but one day Chara came up with a plan that resulted in them dying and Asriel absorbing their soul and passing through the barrier to get 6 more souls and returning to break the barrier. This failed, as humans found Asriel and brutally attacked him resulting in his death when he barely managed to return to the Underground, his existence has been all but forgotten by the general public so only those close to Asgore truly remember.

6. #6Alphys

   Keys: Alphys, the royal scientist, royal scientist

   The royal scientist of the Underground, and she's been the royal scientist ever since Toriel had left. Alphys' biggest achievements were studies of the human soul and what the power of Determination were capable of doing, as she was given monsters who had 'Fallen Down' along with the determination extracted from the human souls. But she would later learn that a monster's physical form couldn't handle the determination and would meld when they'd have Determination injected into them, as a result Alphys out of shame returned the souls to Asgore and tried to keep this secret hidden, and to do that she became a recluse who barely ever leaves her lab or interacts with other monsters. She only ever interacts with Undyne and other high-ranking members of the Royal Guard.

7. #7Undyne

   Keys: Undyne, Captain of the Royal Guard, Royal Guard's captain

   Female fish monster who happens to be the captain and highest authority in the Royal Guard, and the one who answers directly to Asgore for the most part. She's often viewed as cool by the younger monsters, but Undyne's ruthless nature and challenging personality means a lot of the monsters are secretly scared of her. Since Martlet's a sentry for the Royal Guard she's rarely met Undyne, but she too is a bit intimidated of Undyne.

8. #8The Royal Guard

   Keys: The royal guard, Snowdin Canine Unit, Royal Army

   The Royal Guard are the authority forces of the Underground and are tasked with the goal of taking the souls of any humans that fall Underground and giving them to Asgore. The Royal Guard is split up into five separate sectors. The 'lowest' rank would be the Sentries, who are supposed to keep watch over the general population and also upkeep the puzzles that act as traps for humans who fall Underground. Next are the Snowdin Canine Unit, which are a group of Dog-monsters in Snowdin that act as the search and find sector in the event of missing monsters or finding humans who were reported to be in the Underground, then there's the Royal Army which includes Undyne and countless other armoured monsters who are the fully trained fighters and warriors of the Royal Guard. The last two roles are the Royal Scientist who serves as the head of scientific and medical development of the Underground, and then the Royal Judge who is the monster who 'judges' those who wish to meet Asgore.

9. #9The barrier and Mt. Ebott

   Keys: The barrier, Mt. Ebott

   Mt. Ebott is the mountain that the Monsters fled to after the events of the Human and Monster war. 7 of humanity's greatest magicians would then go on to create a magical barrier that would trap the monsters Underground. This barrier is a magical and physical barrier, as it meant that while things could ENTER the Underground, nothing could ever LEAVE the Underground. The only ones capable of exiting through the Barrier would be a monster who absorbed a human soul or vice versa with a human absorbing a monster's soul, the only way to destroy the barrier would be the collective power of 7 human souls.

10. #10Monsters

    Keys: Monsters, Monster-kind

    Monsters are the other dominant race of the planet, and unlike humans. Monsters are much more diverse and come in numerous shapes and sizes, with most monsters physically appearing as anthropomorphic, non-human beings like animals, natural or artificial objects, supernatural beings such as ghosts or spirits, and various other forms. Since a monster's body is mostly made of magic and is attuned to its soul. When a monster gets old or is near death be it from injury or illness, they enter a state referred to as having "fallen down." A monster in this state lies immobile and will eventually die with their souls and bodies turning into dust.

11. #11Monster souls

    Keys: Monster's soul, monster soul

    A monster's soul is the culmination of their very being and magic. However, it is physically weak and cannot persist after a monster's death when their body turns to dust unless said monster is a Boss Monster. Monsters believe that magic, love, hope, and compassion compose their souls. But because they aren't as strong as a human's soul on their own, it'd take all of the monster's souls in the Underground to match just one human soul in terms of strength. A monster's soul is deeply attuned to their body and is why when a monster dies, their form turns to dust and their soul immediately shatters right after, since their soul is such an important part of their existence, it's incredibly erogenous but can be shattered if not too careful. If a monster's soul is shattered, the monster will die immediately.

12. #12Humans

    Keys: Humans, Humanity

    One of the two dominant races of the planet, they are the more physically inclined and gifted of the two races as their physical forms and souls aren't made of magic. As such their souls are not only stronger than a monster's soul as it can linger after a human's death before shattering, but it also means they're less magically inclined than monsters, as only very rare instances of humans were capable of replicating the magic that all monsters could handle. A human is incapable of absorbing a human soul, but it is capable of absorbing a monster's soul.

13. #13Human souls

    Keys: Human souls, human's soul

    Unlike the monsters, a human's soul is not the entirety of their being, but rather their essence, housed in a physical body. This is why humans are stronger than monsters when it comes to physical attacks, but also why their bodies are capable of handling the much larger amounts of Determination that exists in a human's soul in comparison to a monster's soul. In the event of a human's death, their soul can also persist long after their death, making it easy for their souls to be stored in canisters or holding capsules. But while human souls don't have as much magic as monsters, human souls do come in a variety of 6 separate colours with each colour representing a different trait. These traits are human specific, and determine the colour of a human's soul, which appears as a glowing heart.

14. #14Justice

    Keys: Yellow human soul, Justice, injustice, yellow soul

    Human souls that are bright yellow are filled with the main trait of 'Justice' and are often those who have strict moral codes and will do anything in the name of justice as to help others who can't fight or speak up for themselves. However, there are some humans whose soul can get corrupted by their own actions and thus turn into a darker yellow. Souls that are a darker yellow symbolize the human trait of Injustice and are a result of either that human suffering great injustice and losing their senses of justice or if the human commits grievous acts of unjust violence.

15. #15Patience

    Keys: Cyan human soul, Patience, Impatience, cyan soul

    A human soul that is bright cyan in colour represents the human trait of Patience, meaning that human shows great patience and consideration before they act. Humans with the cyan soul of Patience, are often viewed as the 'opposing' trait of Bravery, as humans with the soul of Patience don't go head-first into things. Those with a dark cyan soul however embody the trait of Impatience and will display reckless amount of impatience and willingness to do whatever they want whenever they want, this soul trait only happens in the event someone with the soul of patience loses their patience and acts hastily.

16. #16Bravery

    Keys: Orange human soul, Bravery, Cowardice, orange soul

    Human souls that are bright orange in colour represent the human trait of Bravery, meaning that humans with this trait display signs of bravery and a willingness to do things that most other humans couldn't, this also means that many humans with this soul are fighters at heart and will almost never back down. The humans with the soul trait of Bravery that do back down in fear, however, will have their soul become dark orange in colour which represents the trait of Cowardice.

17. #17Integrity

    Keys: Blue human soul, Integrity, Dishonesty, blue soul

    Humans with a blue soul represent the trait of Integrity and are often akin to those with the soul of Justice, as they have strong moral principles, uprightness, and even honesty to themselves and others, often remaining unshakeable. In the event that someone with a soul of integrity loses their integrity and falls victim to their own vices and sick fantasies, their soul will become a duller shade of blue and will represent the soul of Dishonesty.

18. #18Kindness

    Keys: Green human soul, Kindness, Cruelty, green soul

    Humans with a green soul represent the trait of kindness, and will show unwavering kindness, mercy, and love towards others. They would much rather heal an enemy that's incapacitated instead of going in for the kill, and would prefer making friends instead of enemies, it was humans with the soul trait of Kindness that were against the idea of the war between Human and Monsters. However, on the opposite end, those who had forsaken their kindness and positive look on life in favour of cruel acts without any form of justification; their soul would turn into a dull hue of green and would become overtaken by the soul trait of Cruelty.

19. #19Perseverance

    Keys: Purple human soul, perseverance, fickleness, purple soul

    Humans with the purple soul of perseverance were often the ones who would go to any lengths to finish what they have their minds set to. This means that out of all six soul traits, it's those with Perseverance who were the most likely to become one of the rare few humans capable of doing magic. But it also makes them the more 'tolerable' and more willing to tough things out than the others, but in the event that humans with this soul were to actually have their perseverance broken or 'corrupted', their soul will become a dull shade of purple representing the trait of Fickleness.

20. #20Determination

    Keys: Determination, DT

    Determination is the essence found in both monster and human souls, Determination is an essence and energy that has the ability to change and manipulate fate itself. Humans all have large percentages of Determination in their souls, meanwhile Monsters have smaller traces of it in their souls. It's not a known fact, but Determination is all a being needs to exist, if a monster or human were to have enough Determination they could survive without a soul, but they would be an empty husk devoid of any true emotions such as hope, love, or joy.

21. #21The fallen humans

    Keys: The 5 fallen humans, Tama, Sen, Cleo, Desta, Marq

    The 6 fallen humans were the humans that had fallen Underground after Chara's death but there were many decades between each human falling. 10 years after Chara's death, Sen who was a young girl with the soul trait of Patience had fallen Underground by pure accident. However, she ended up dying in the Ruins, and her soul was sent to Asgore. She wore a faded ribbon and held a toy knife. Next was Marq, a 14-year-old boy who was running away from people who were chasing him, he had the soul trait of Bravery. Unfortunately, he perished in the cold of Snowdin with his soul being found by one of the royal guard sentries, he had a manly bandana and tough glove with him. Then came Desta, a teenage girl who was in ballet that willingly entered the Underground because she mistreated by humans and felt she would live a better life with the monsters. However, she only got to Waterfall before she was found and killed by Undyne. She had her tutu and ballet shoes on when she died. Then was Tama, a young boy who had the soul trait of Kindness that fell Underground accidentally. He got to Asgore, and despite Tama's best attempts at mercy, Asgore would force himself to kill Tama and take their soul. The apron and pan Tama fell Underground in were lost in the CORE. Next came Cleo, a 16-year-old boy who had wanted to hear the monster's side of the story and willingly fell Underground. He had the soul trait of perseverance but would end up dying in the spider den that belonged to Muffet. Their notebook and glasses were found by Gerson in Waterfall.

22. #22Snowdin

    Keys: Snowdin, Snowed-in Town

    Snowdin is one of the many territories in the Underground that monsters inhabit. Snowdin was the first territory monsters inhabited shortly after they were sealed underground, but it's mostly ice-based, bird-like, or mammalian monsters that live in Snowdin due to its temperature. Snowdin itself is a cottage town with it being in a perpetual winter-like state with snow falling and the monsters having a very tight-knit community due to most monsters recognizing each other. Snowdin is where Martlet lives, but it's also where the royal guard's Snowdin Canine Unit is located.

23. #23Waterfall

    Keys: Waterfall

    Waterfall is one of the more beautiful territories of the Underground and is solely inhabited by monsters that are aquatic or fish-like in nature. Waterfall's nature is fuelled by magic inherently, the water that flows through Waterfall is a beautiful neon blue colour and the grasses and flowers are also the same shade. Waterfall is also famous for their Echo Flowers, which are special bioluminescent cyan flowers that will whisper back the last words spoken around them, Waterfall's ceilings and rocky walls have sparkling gems in them that give the illusion of stars making it a soothing place to be in.

24. #24Wild East

    Keys: The Dunes, Wild East, Oasis Valley.

    Dunes as its name implies is a large desert-like and hot territory in the Underground, its hot and arid temperatures are caused not only by exposed magma, but 'Swelterstones' which are magical ores that emit not only light but heat. A large swelterstone high up in Dunes serves as a 'false sun' as it causes Dunes to always be in a perpetual 'daytime'. The dunes are mostly uninhabited, but it has two 'towns' known as Oasis Valley which is built around an oasis and then the Wild East which is a town that has the aesthetic of a Frontier town.

25. #25Steamworks

    Keys: Steamworks, the Old Core

    The steamworks is an old now uninhabited territory of the Underground that once served as the Underground's source of power, it's entirely made up of steampunk powered and based technology and is filled to the brim with remnants of the old scientists that once worked in the area to keep the place running. Now that the Steamworks are abandoned however, it's almost completely empty, as the only monsters who live here are faulty or broken robotic monsters that were created by the old scientists.

26. #26Core

    Keys: The Core, CORE, Hotland

    Hotland is arid and incredibly hot territory in the Underground. Its reddish-orange dirt and rock paths being above the bubbling magma hundreds of feet below them, and unlike Dunes, there aren't any Swelterstones in this territory the light is provided solely by the magma. Hotland is filled up with mainly pyro-based and a few reptilian monsters, it's also the home of Alphys the Royal Scientist, because of her presence, there's a lot of technology-based puzzles such as lasers or conveyor belts. The CORE, which is a sub-section of Hotland is a technologically advanced facility that processes the geothermal activity of the Underground and processes it into the magical power and energy that powers most of the Underground's power grid,

27. #27New Home

    Keys: New Home, the Underground's Capital

    New Home is the capital of the Underground and is considered to be the last territory of the Underground, as it is a grey-scaled area made up of grey-coloured materials. It's filled with long corridors and in the distance is a large city made up of grey bricks and other materials. The reason for such a colour scheme is because it is also where Asgore's castle is located and it is also where the only exit to the Underground; the barrier is located.
