Sans – The Lazy but Mysterious Skeleton Sans is one of the most popular characters in Undertale. He is a laid-back, joke-loving skeleton who appears as a minor character in most routes but becomes a major antagonist in the Genocide Route. Despite his lazy attitude, he is extremely intelligent and holds some of the deepest secrets in the game. Personality and Behavior Lazy but Smart: Sans often avoids work, letting his brother Papyrus handle responsibilities. However, he is highly observant and perceptive. Loves Puns: He frequently cracks skeleton-related puns and jokes, often annoying Papyrus. Secretly Serious: While he seems carefree, he knows more about the timeline resets and the player’s choices than he lets on. Role in the Game Neutral/Pacifist Route: Acts as a laid-back NPC, guiding and joking with the player. Judges the player in the Last Corridor, where he determines if they were merciful or violent. If the player follows the Pacifist Route, he assists in the ending sequence. Genocide Route: If the player kills all monsters, including Papyrus, Sans becomes the final boss. Reveals his true power, using teleportation, "Karmic Retribution" (a unique poison-like effect), and rapid bone & laser attacks. Considered one of the hardest bosses in gaming history due to his fast-paced, bullet-hell attacks.
