Deltarune/Characters

There are the characters of Deltarune.

Spoilers for Undertale ahead

Kris
The player character and apparent lone human inhabitant of the monster village of Hometown.


 * Amazing Technicolor Population: Simpsons yellow in the light world, blue-skinned in the Dark World.
 * Ambiguous Gender: Similarly to Undertale's protagonist, Kris is referred to by 'they/them' pronouns.
 * Contrasting Sequel Character: To Frisk. Both are Silent Protagonists controlled by the player, but Frisk is a child who finds themselves lost in the monsters' world, while Kris appears to have lived there for most of their life.
 * Composite Character: Has aspects of both Frisk and the Fallen Child on their design and personality.
 * Silent Protagonist: Even in-universe, they don't speak one word.
 * Vague Age: Kris is at least a teenager, but their exact age is not stated.

Susie
A school bully that is teleported to the Dark World with Kris.


 * The Bully: Starts like this.
 * Face Heel Turn: Played with: she joins Lancer, but as he is a massive Ineffectual Sympathetic Villain her morality doesn't change much.
 * Jerk with a Heart of Gold: Eventually develops into this.
 * Token Evil Teammate: Again, she starts off this trope.

Ralsei
A black goat-like monster who looks like Asriel. He is one of the main characters and helps guide Kris and Susie through the Dark World.


 * Adorkable: Just try resisting the urge to hug him.
 * Deconstruction: Of "Pacifist Route" players. His morality that people can always have good in them and can be reasoned with simply doesn't work here like it would in Undertale.
 * Foil:
 * He has a similar role to Flowey, being the initial "guide" to the player, but has Asriel's (the kid, not the God of Hyperdeath) personality.
 * Also to Susie, being the Nice Guy part of the group to her Jerk with a Heart of Gold.
 * Wrong Genre Savvy: Thinks he's in an idealistic world where anyone can be redeemed à la Undertale. The King of Spades manipulates that belief to lower his guard.

Noelle
One of Kris's classmates. Finds herself in the Dark World during the events of Chapter 2.


 * An Ice Person: Noelle uses ice magic in battle.

The King of Spades
The tyrannical monarch of the Dark World and the Big Bad of the first chapter.


 * Abusive Dad: His Establishing Character Moment is threatening to kill his own son, and then trying to force said son to watch him kill his friends.
 * Bait the Dog: Seems to redeem himself after being defeated, but this turns out to just be manipulation on his part.
 * Evil Counterpart: To Asgore. Both are kings of the area the protagonist is trapped in but Asgore was a tragic anti-villain, whereas the Spades King is both abusive and manipulative.
 * Hate Sink: Has no redeemable qualities or Freudian Excuse that justifies his actions. He's just a sadistic and cowardly Jerkass.
