FAQ/About!
Party Member References! What is UNDERTALE Alter Ego?
UNDERTALE Alter Ego is an UNDERTALE au that seeks to take characters, concepts and places and lay them out in a formula similar to the last three games of the Persona series!
What's a Persona Series?
The Persona Series is a set of games made by Atlus, starring high school students happening upon shadow worlds that reflect society and awakening to the special power of persona- a physical manifestation of their inner self, to defeat an oncoming threat.
Who's in it?
The story follows Frisk- a recently orphaned sixteen year old, moving in with their foster family: The Dreemurrs (Toriel, Asgore, Asriel and Chara). Frisk's party consists of their two new foster siblings as well as Clover and Kanako from UNDERTALE Yellow as well as our interpretations of the other 5 human SOULs. Outside of the party there's Flowey: The party's guide through Mt. Ebott. Outside of the shadow world there are the characters Frisk will meet and befriend: Sans, Papyrus, Undyne Alphys, Mettaton, Ceroba, Starlo, Martlet and Dalv. Assisting Frisk will be an enigmatic man who resides over The Dark Room: W.D Gaster and his assistant- Goner kid. Other UT and UTY Monsters will be featured in the background.
Hold on- Ebott? Like the mountain?
Yep! Mt. Ebott is no longer the prison for the monsters who lost the war so long ago- It is now the epicentre of many dark and mysterious magical beings and people who seek to utilise them. The Human and Monster war did not end in their banishment- it instead ended peacefully with a treaty formed. Monsters have lived on the surface peacefully since.
Will Deltarune or Persona characters cameo?
For deltarune, there'll only be a few, since we don't wanna mess with stuff we don't really know, game isn't FINISHED. For the Persona characters, they may appear in the bg- Though all of the shadows/personas frisk obtains are from the series (bar their starting one.)
What will you use from UT and Persona?
The characters will all pretty much be from UNDERTALE with any original ones seeking to fit into that. As well as that, the locations and dynamics between characters will be very reminiscent of UNDERTALE's- All of the floors of Ebott will very very very closely resemble the locales from UNDERTALE! The battle style, plot structure, social links and- of course, the ability to use a Persona will be adapted from the series. The AU will take plenty from Persona 3, 4 and 5- Though tonally we're looking more at a Persona 4 here.
So what is this? Will it be a game? an animated series? a complicated board game your family won't play with you?
No, No and... Not yet. The AU will be presented in the form of a... Webcomic! There'll be the main comic with all the plot and junk as well as side Social Link comics where Frisk befriends various other people mentioned prior! We're also considering opening in-character asks during breaks :D
Who joins when? What happens?! Cocoapowder real?! Who's the ___ arcana?!?
For most of those I'd have to say to be patient and wait for the comic to roll out- We'll try to keep up monthly updates (or more frequent if need be). Though I can confirm cocoapowder real.
When's it coming out? I crave a date!
Well, I'm flattered but we're taken. Secondly, it'll be released in arcs, we can't put a solid deadline or time frame on it but we're working pretty hard to get as much done as possible- again, patience :D
Will Jack Frost be in the Comic?
... yes.
