Note: This is a re-writing of my original post that was accidentally destroyed when i accidentally deleted my previous tumblr blog of the same name. (also potentially may make an ask blog, but i'll be working on the au more prominently than trying to make an askblog atm. i want to draw other characters before i make an official askblog) Not informational but a little side note: I have been in the undertale fandom (And the au fandom) since 2016, and once had a pretty integral part in the fandom, one im not exactly willing to be acknowledged for. (Its not anything problematic, i was like 10 at the time.) But i figured that after enough time, i wanted to make my own stupid verse and have a bit of fun. So here's one of the sanses i put into it. (Note: I'll probably make a post about the past and what happened, But try to leave it vague enough, since i genuinely dont want people to harass myself or anyone else potentially involved for answers)

Ok here's the informational section/ QNA What *IS* GildedVerse?: Its basically just my interpretation of the overall multiverse, Having a more "Fluffy" tone overall, but still having angst potential and *The Horrors* of fandom space LOL- Kintsugi isnt the only character that is IN the GildedVerse that will be new to the fandom, and thats fine with me. People are free to insert their characters in, but know they might not be acknowledged as canon. Is this gonna be another "Just Sanses" AU?: Nope! This au plans to add in new characters that arent just sanses, Including dog monsters, Other freaks and more :3 There are two other "Sanses" that will be added though. One being named Printer & the other being called Rogue. Are these characters going to be free use like other popular characters?: Yep! As long as you give credit and tag back to my tumblr we should be fine and dandy. However, I ask that NSFW art of the characters are not posted on tumblr, or if they are, to be using tags that cannot be found accidentally by people not looking for it. Gore is completely fine to be posted in main tags Will there be other popular underverse characters featured?: Yes! I plan on featuring other underverse characters, but things canon to their stories/ sources may not be canon here. Its a more fluff au, so a lot more angsty stuff will either be resolved or left behind. Characters that dont belong to me will be credited at the bottom of posts that they appear in. (Note; Even if i credit a creator, it doesnt mean i support them or am knowledgable about their actions, if theres one thats truly and absolutely problematic, Please do not attack me. I've been outside of the community drama for almost 9 years now.) Will there be a wiki?: I dont know how to make a wiki page, so if you want to just shoot me a dm, and i'm happy to provide any information I can. What inspired you to do this?: I have no projects currently and my hyperfixation on undertale has resurfaced, but no au / multiverse has really scratched the itch I desire to be scratched. There's not many aus that are mainly fluff centric with a little bit of angst and lore here and there. Will there be a fully fledged plot or comic?: Plot? Maybe?? Comic? Probably not. I'm doing this for fun and just drawing Kintsugi's ref and the lore art took 16 hours. Do you plan on monetizing this?: NO, And i ask that people request permission before selling keychains or merch of my characters. I Cannot stop you from doing so, but i ask out of politeness and equal respect from creator to creator. NOW! ONTO THE FUCKING LORE BC I've been procrastinating Designation: S-106. Deemed Kintsugi by friends. Pronouns: They/ It (He/him is accepted, but not preferred) Monster-Type/Species: Modified Skeleton (Draconic) [Sans] Affiliation: "Bad Sanses". Works under Nightmare, Alongside Killer, Horror, Dust & Occasionally Cross. Home AU: The AU is broken and no longer existant, But its been called "Fantasy-Tale" due to its odd Fantasy-like appearance when Nightmare and his crew discovered it. Kintsugi accepts the name but has not clarified if it was accurate or not. Powers: Kintsugi is not like normal "Sanses" As they do not have access to bone magic nor any kind of magic in their primarily Skeletal form. However they have the ability to mildly alter their appearance in the form of changing their wing size between two "Settings" in this form. They also seem to have a remarkable healing capacity, Able to keep limbs even if they are severed, as long as they are pressed back together. Any cuts or injuries form a Golden looking scar, The scars from a "Limb Mending" are much more prominent and visible. They also additionally have a "Dragon" Form, Taking the appearance of a "Small" (For dragons) Golden dragon. Their head seems to be the shape of a Gaster Blaster in this form, which is fitting, as their powers in this form seem to mimic that of a Gaster Blaster, Able to release blasts of energy from their mouth or concentrate balls of energy. All a faint goldish White in coloration.

The only major differences between a classic Gaster Blaster and Kintsugi's Dragon Form's Head is that there are less spikes, and it doesn't split in half on the lower jaw when firing blasts. Additionally a minor difference is that the horns they do have, are the three on top, which are golden in coloration and seem to copy their skeleton form's horns. Sizing: In skeletal form, Kintsugi is 5'5", Slightly taller than your average "Sans" (Being around 5'0" - 5'3") with a wing span of 6'0" (Normal wing size) or 1'5" (Smaller wing size). Their Draconic form hasn't been able to be concretely measured, but is around 12ft and their wingspan is around 35ft. Extra information: Kintsugi seems to molt multiple times in a year, shedding the gold scars if they're small enough or shedding their golden scales from their draconic parts. It seems to be excruciatingly painful for them and often takes a few days or upwards of a week for them to recover without help. It seems the "Bad Sanses" Help with this task, as Kintsugi's recovery time has gone down significantly compared to previous observations. I am unsure how they became this way, But from what I can tell, The amount of JUSTICE they contain is not natural. I'll do more investigating. - >#?!%&*(

Appearance: Note Transcriptions: Kintsugi's Head: They have three horns, One located roughly on the forehead, Slightly shorter than the others, Thinner too. The other two are matching, Slightly curved longer horns on approximately the Temples of their skull. Their eyelights are a golden color, and can get larger and smaller, Even able to squish into Cat-like slits. Their teeth are sharp and fang-like, Think a dragon's mouth, But when drawn only their canines are fangs are really prominent. They can open their mouth, unlike some other "sanses". Golden Cracks on Body: Sustained from former injuries, Even if it wouldn't have scarred, Any cuts to the body (Minus the tails and wings; Which are injured like Flesh would be) form these golden cracks Do not have to be accurate to reference, Can shift around in art. Wings: Normal Wing-Size: Has spikes, a bit fragile. Able to fly with, slightly longer wingspan than the body is long. Cumbersome, Gets in the way. "Energy Saver Mode": About 1/4th typical size, missing spikes, unable to be flown with. Good for emoting, bad for combat and travel. Outfit: Consists of a sleeveless top modified with slits in the back for Kintsugi's wings, Shoulder Guards, Arm warmers, Long gray pants altered for Kintsugi's tail and Combat-boot like shoes Tail: Kintsugi's tail has exactly 6 spikes on their tail, and 4 pairs of "fins" on their tail, (There are 3 main "Frills" on the "finns" allowing it to be mirrored from almost any direction. Spikes are darker than the main scale color, while "finns" are a lighter color.)

OH btw guys, Kintsugi's getting a minor rewrite for their backstory, to make them feel more powerful :3

Notes: Kintsugi's draconic form was something they didnt have immediate access to, learning to use it while under the care of Nightmare. The following information can be found in Kintsugi's base file, but will be rehashed. Information: [Kintsugi] also additionally [Has] a "Dragon" Form, Taking the appearance of a "Small" (For dragons) Golden dragon. Their head seems to be the shape of a Gaster Blaster in this form, which is fitting, as their powers in this form seem to mimic that of a Gaster Blaster, Able to release blasts of energy from their mouth or concentrate balls of energy. All a faint goldish White in coloration. The only major differences between a classic Gaster Blaster and Kintsugi's Dragon Form's Head is that there are less spikes, and it doesn't split in half on the lower jaw when firing blasts. Additionally a minor difference is that the horns they do have, are the three on top, which are golden in coloration and seem to copy their skeleton form's horns. Sizing: In skeletal form, Kintsugi is 5'5", Slightly taller than your average "Sans" (Being around 5'0" - 5'3") with a wing span of 6'0" (Normal wing size) or 1'5" (Smaller wing size). Their Draconic form hasn't been able to be concretely measured, but is around 12ft and their wingspan is around 35ft. Additional Notes: This form is quite Dangerous, If engaged in combat keep a distance, Avoid going into the air if opponent is Airborne. Its more risky for them to try to swoop to the ground to attack rather than land period. Keep a large distance. Can move quickly and has use of ranged attacks. - P?i%&er
