Charon: warnings; mentions of torture, not explicit. Mentions of mercy killing, not explicit.
Back underground when Charon became the Captain of the Royal guard, the mad king Asgore made Charon hunt down ‘traitors’ - monsters who Asgore in his paranoia thought were secretly rebelling and planning to backstab him - and bring them back in front of the mad king.
Which Charon did, only to find out about the terrible fate that would befall said monsters: Enduring a horrible torture in view of the entire inhabitants of New Home, kept alive for days in their horrific state as a warning to any possible traitors that wish to rebel before being dusted.
Horrified by this, Charon found an ultimatum; offering the ‘traitors’ he captures a choice. Either be handed over to the mad king and the merciless fate that awaited them there, or dust painlessly by Charon’s hands, have their last will fulfilled and their dust spread out at a location of their choosing.
He hid his actions from the king by pretending he was merciless and didn’t hold back, often causing a dusting instead of a capture. The king believed this ruse. As did most of monster kind. Meanwhile Charon kept the dust of monsters who wanted to be spread on the surface in urns kept safely in the basement. The urns labeled by names of the monster and their wills.
