Honest thoughts and theories of Deltarune characters so far.
I won't make any fancy intros, I'll get right to it:
I think Roaring Knight is pretty much in a way confirmed to be Dess Holiday, Knight is left handed, Dess is left handed, those are fairly specific odds especially since Dess is not yet present in the game, Carol gets very angry when someone aside Kris touches Dess's stuff.
If Knight is Dess then: may be a mutated, corrupted dark form that can be powerful enough to kidnap Undyne and then speak on the phone about a sacrifice. Of course, being fully conscious and aware of the actions they do.
I think Kris is not only in on it, but somehow, being a puppet of The Roaring Knight. Why do I think that? Well, Kris and the soul are very much the same person no matter what we do, Kris seem to not mind unless it's the secret of the shelter. Kris actually formed a bond with Susie, Ralsei, Noelle willingly, we as a player didn't forced them into it, proof is, if you wait in the wardrobe with Susie and Noelle talking, yellow text does trigger Kris's reaction and not usually in a bad way, occasionally blushing to some reactions, not immediately out of embarrassment, but maybe out of flattery as when you speak of Kris being good at flirting, which undoubtedly is our, the Player's cause, Kris seem to not be angry of it, but talking about their skills also triggers the same reaction AND if we wait long enough, Kris enters a state I would describe as trying to catch a breath as without the soul they are very much dying. In the library we find out that the Soul and Human are connected, but Kris and the Soul had to somehow disconnect from one another forming us, the Soul and separate cold and distanced Kris. (A darker theory is that Kris died and we are the soul of someone else giving Kris life for the price of taking control of their body occasionally, but that I find to not make much sense.) However Kris does act on their own, seeing in Chapter 4 where they simply took a breath, without the need of pulling out the Soul they played the piano the way they can do as, let's be real, next to Kris we suck at piano, but both are actually completing one another in things, we socialize Kris more and give them friends and they well...do anything Kris can do best, be spooky, distanced and play very well on Piano (Okay I know Kris is good at a lot of things, I just thought it'd be funny if I said this XD)
Ralsei is definitely hiding something, theory has it that Ralsei is the horned headband we still probably carry around or is an embodiment of memory on Asriel who will arrive at the city fairly soon, maybe sooner than we thought!
Prophecy seems to indicate someone's sacrifice, what I think this implies is however that all Dark Worlds need to be sealed and only then the Light World is completely safe from The Roaring.
Somewhere was apparently an indication of the second protagonist next to Kris to be Noelle, however the evidence is fairly weak, but I shall include it here nonetheless, in a year we will return to this and laugh maybe!
I know Asgore seems fairly innocent, but as I replayed Deltarune I kept noticing that- there's something off about Asgore. Why would Toriel leave him over a FLOWER business?! That makes little to no sense. So I think and most likely some of you too that Asgore has a deeper secret and because he couldn't share it with Toriel, Toriel felt betrayed, like he didn't trust his own wife enough, however I think he again, does bad, but means no harm, has actually pure intentions and is just misunderstood. Poor Asgore in this case is getting again cucked by a funny skeleton. (XD)
Although not appearing as of yet, let's go over the evidence. Dark Darker Yet Darker used to play around The Shelter, "Garbage noise" is the Entry Number 17 and nowadays people point out that a little alignment here and there and The Titan looks eerily like Gaster's face.
My theory of Gaster however: Gaster might be but a Darkner in one of the Chapters, maybe a secret boss with a lot of questions of his own, who knows? People anticipate Gaster so much, I think the game would probably get scorched by the toxic side of the community that wants to see the funny goofy man who speaks in hands.
Importance of previous main bosses of Undertale -
There might be little to no importance of characters like Sans, Papyrus, etc. as the story doesn't include them aside puns and Toby giving in on the Toriel x Sans shtick, however again, I believe this will not become a thing as Toby has a history of this type of humor and it is funny so far, ngl. Again we need to realize that Sans, Papyrus, Alphys, Undyne...their story is already written elsewhere, their personalities, etc. and it makes you feel more for the characters, despite them being less than a background noise which I find genius from Toby's side, however there's still 3 more chapters so...the reality can still be completely flipped, expect the unexpected in this case.
Importance of secret bosses of Deltarune -
Well we seem to have an interaction between Tenna and Spamton, seems that their importance is only going to increase as talks about them...aside probably the Knight as he is not really a secret, but one of if not the MAIN antagonist of the game.
Jevil - Mentioned by Spade King, Seam and many more in the respective chapter Jevil's included and it's getting more frequent as time goes by.
Spamton - Honestly? He was already a big talking point in the Cyber World, he was like Gaster, but debunked, only others didn't saw him often if at all, aside us and then Susie and Ralsei.
Gerson Boom - Thanks to this boss fight we also learned something, plus it gave us a clue. Dark World can, even if temporarily, resurrect the dead. Gerson is but dust in Alvin's office and yet because it's in the church we are able to communicate with him and he seems to be...himself. Which may be a very own plot device for the antagonists to work with, we'll have to find out.
Something is off about this one. Kris studying occultism, Knight spoke of sacrifice and ritual, Undyne kidnapped for it, Asgore's 7 magical looking flowers, Kris's divided soul between now us and Kris themselves instead of JUST Kris. I think they want something else than to bring The Roaring. Why would Carol, Asgore, Undyne, Dess and Kris want to destroy the world? Even if we divide them character by character, Carol has Noelle, Rudy and maybe still Dess somewhere she most likely cares about. Asgore? WELL LOOK AT THE GUY! He's a lovable dude who would probably put his life at risk for his family. Undyne? Why would Undyne want to destroy the world? She's a natural born hero! Dess and Kris? Even in a gothic phase you would chicken out of something like destroying the world over something stupid. Plus they're not little anymore to not have rational thoughts...unless we take in consideration Kris is broken and Dess probably corrupted, but HEY! You don't have that from me!
Are we the villain all along ?
Honestly, possible, I given it a thought, no matter what side we're on, what route we take, we're still most likely controlling someone against their will on many occasions. Weird route? Yeah that one- is weird, but all the more strange to think that the reason Kris was spooking Noelle in the past might be because of the Soul? Hmmm, maybe, maybe not.
What I think with Kris is that there's like- 75% chance Kris is a good person, has noble intentions as even if Noelle's and Kris's friendship was forced, Kris seems to always care about 2 people in his life so far, at least most discussed. Asriel and Dess. The world and Deltarune practically revolves around them and we're like that nervous cousin, getting ready to meet and greet them.
It's possible what's going on is still way too large for us to assume and we'll have to really wait until 2026 for the next Chapter 5 to give us answers so we would get to the bottom of this in Chapter 6 and 7. I don't want Chapter 5 to be some kind of filler, ending on a cliff-hanger, just because it's only a year away, I really hope Chapter 5 will explain a lot if not the most so we could focus on HOW to get a desirable ending than "What comes next after a year or two?" At least some answers would fit as Chapter 3 and 4 explained little and opened MANY more questions than it answered.
What we know so far (?) -
Dark Fountains can be opened if you have a strong will to do so, not anyone can do it, you really need to try is the way Chapter 4 interpreted it.
Spamton's secrets of Mike are more or less fully explained and serve little to no importance. HOWEVER. It brought a theory (not Mike, but Spamton and Tenna). Spamton is unrecognizable to Tenna, it's not just Tenna ignoring him as he wished to see Spamton, but when Spamton shown, he got "frozen" by Tenna who didn't knew him. The phone call that changed Spamton's life for worse is still on the table as it was not with Tenna, Mike or anyone we yet know. Maybe Gaster? Maybe Kris without Soul? Maybe Roaring Knight? Maybe secret boss of one of the upcoming chapters? Time will have to tell.
Seam for a reason he doesn't wish to share betrayed Jevil and sealed him over The Roaring Knight dispute as Seam seems to be a magician, said by the Spade King. Will Seam betray us? Or is he just going to make us that strong weapon?
Shadow Crystals are a part of The Roaring Knight maybe as yes, we got the shard from the chipped sword, however, we also got a shadow crystal. WHAT does it imply? Maybe I'm overthinking this one though.
Dark Fountains are able to bring back memories of OR the dead themselves back to life. I am not implying Ralsei is dead Asriel, but might be a said memory of Asriel the way Kris remembers. Until Asriel comes back from College we know barely anything of that being true or false.
Kris and The Roaring Knight know each other, they secretly communicate, upon no-hit running The Roaring Knight, Kris gestures that they should speed the fight up, seems like in that sense Kris is showing awareness that the Knight is taking it lightly on us as he recognizes Kris. Either a co-operation or something more. Maybe who knows? Grand twist of the said knight being Asriel or Asgore. Reality can be anywhere again as Toby has the cards and we're just waiting for his play here XD
Gaster is not yet HERE FFS, we're in the middle of Deltarune and we still don't have the funni goop man nor Papyrus, but we have one more Dog sequence where we own him at climbing and he fucking dies XDDD
If I left something out and you would remind me of it, I will include it after EDIT title below all this text lol.
