After helping the player hide from Papyrus, Sans follows his brother throughout most of the forest, commentating on his puzzles and even contributing a word search, much to Papyrus's dismay. He clarifies that he has no interest in capturing humans, unlike Papyrus, whom he describes as a "human-hunting FANATIC". Sans first appears in Snowdin, initially appearing as a silhouette approaching the player from behind before shaking the player's hand, setting off a whoopee cushion. Papyrus was hired as a royal guard trainee sentry and forced his brother to help in his quest to capture a human. Prior to the events of Undertale, he had moved to the settlement in Snowdin from an unknown location with his brother Papyrus. Sans is a skeleton wearing a blue jacket, black shorts with white stripes, and white slippers. His likeness also appears as a customizable skin for the Mii Gunner character in Super Smash Bros. Sans appears in the related game Deltarune. His popularity with fans inspired several user-created mods and other types of projects. Critics praised the character for his dialogue and boss fight, which is considered to be one of the most difficult in the game. His name is based on the Comic Sans font, which is used for most of his in-game dialogue. Initially appearing as a friendly NPC with an easy-going and laid-back personality, he becomes the de facto final boss if the player chooses to complete the "genocide route" and go out of their way to destroy the game's race of monsters. Sans is a fictional character created by Toby Fox for the 2015 role-playing video game Undertale.
