<INF> Description
>>> Asriel is a beastkin delegated under the Monster race, as per his source material, UNDERTALE. He is 5'6" tall and most resembles a goat species. He has white fur, two small, pointed horns, two large, floppy ears, a small tail and orange-red eyes. He wears a lime-green shirt with 2 light-yellow stripes on both arms and the torso, as well as dark-gray pants with no shoes.
<INF> Backstory
>>> Asriel's backstory is somewhat fuzzy. He and Kade crossed paths when Kade was looking further into The Multiverse. Kade experimented with access to UNDERTALE as a game rather than a standard Universe, managing to take Frisk's place. After beating the "True Pacifist" route, he backtracked to the beginning and saw Asriel. This is an intended interaction for character exposition, but Kade wanted to salvage Asriel's company by giving him the playable SOUL, at the cost of going beyond the game's coding. It crashed the application and kicked Kade out, bringing Asriel with him.
>>> What followed was heavy insistence by Kirb due from fixating on UNDERTALE. Asriel unintentionally replaced Kurson as Kade's sidekick, causing a heavy drought in development for not only Kurson, but Chisk too. No longer a trio, both characters wound up getting less and less screentime until a full drop-off. Meanwhile, Kirb followed a Mario & Luigi RPG approach to Kade's new partner, copying elements from the series and beyond. Some canon stayed, other canon didn't, but their tag-team title was in full swing.
>>> The development of Kirb: Nightmare in Funland & [The Reboots] helped even the imbalance, but it was a very rough time for the other two while Asriel got as much love as Kade did. In the current year, this isn't as big of an issue, but it makes describing Kurson & Chisk hard to do. Detour aside...
<INF> Abilities
>>> Asriel keeps all his abilities from his source material, also taking inspiration from different fan-made UNDERTALE media. He wields two large swords with unique physial design, called the "Chaos Sabres". His magic attacks consist of some natural elements like fire and lightning, as well as 5-pointed stars that can burst like bombs. Something special, though, is the ability of fusion. While Kade was only given the player SOUL in his journey, Asriel trained him to be able to harness one. This came to be the SOUL of Courage, and later the SOUL of Trust in Kurson. It is usually represented with a lime-green color (with Kurson's a deep indigo), but more often with a white heart in the center, as Kirb was taking inspiration from a fan-project known as Dreemurr Reborn.
The way this occurred had to do with the player SOUL: The glitch caused them to share the SOUL together, and eventually they learned to fuse themselves with a combined design, keeping Kade's Shy Guy outfit while adding some of Asriel's Monster traits. This amplified their magic and theoretically has no time limit. As they got older, Asriel was more and more capable of standing on his own, finally "growing" a new Monster SOUL when KNiF began.
<INF> Relationships
>>> Asriel is somewhat shy and hasn't talked to other characters much; he's gotten to know the rest of the [Primary Heroes] well, but that's roughly it...
<INF> Highlights
>>> Most of Asriel's highlights tie in with Kade since the two have been together for so long. Not much can be said that hasn't been already; he rarely goes on solo adventures and follows team protocols. Maybe in the future...?
<INF> Miscellaneous
>>> It's worth noting that, since this version of Asriel spawned from a non-standard replica, resetting the game would just spawn another copy of him like nothing happened. He can't really "go home" since he didn't come from a version of UNDERTALE's Universe that can tie to the timeline. He came from a "fake" copy rather than a "real" copy, if that makes sense.
