Characters

Turntables: Rooted hosts a large array of characters, some filling roles of already existing Undertale characters and others being completely new roles that did not exist in the original Undertale. Listed below are the characters and a little bit of information on them, excluding a few characters to avoid too many spoilers.

(If you want to look at singular characters alone to find more info on them, check here on the separated characters list. There you will find every character, even the ones excluded from this list.)


 * Aurora

-Age: 17

-Height: 5'1"

-Weight: 104 pounds

-Likes: Small puppies, carrot cake, and hot cocoa

-Dislikes: Celery, canned food, and fighting

-Role: Frisk

-Synopsis: After growing up in an abusive household, Aurora decided to climb Mount Smoky after hearing the legend that those who climbed it were fated to never return. Aurora's true intentions for climbing the mountain are unknown. Unlike Frisk in the normal Undertale, Aurora is not a silent protagonist.

-Fun Fact: Before the story of Turntables: Rooted was fully fleshed out, the idea was that wolves had taken the surface. This means that at one point in Aurora's design, she had a tail and wolf ears.

-Key Motifs: Undertale's Beta Tracks and Tomodachi Life


 * Harper the Hibiscus

-Age: It's a flower.

-Height: 3'0"

-Weight: Unknown

-Likes: Nothing. It's a soulless flower.

-Dislikes: Warm and fuzzy things, people getting too close to it, touchy feely moments in anything, carrot cake

-Role: Flowey

-Synopsis: This flower, unlike Flowey, is not as tricky, as they do not find joy in taunting others from out of reach areas. They actually try to help others, even explaining to Aurora how Winter's "light blue soul mode" attack works.

-Fun Fact: Harper's design does not stray far from the design of Flowey, despite being a hibiscus plant. The difference is really only noticeable when squinting.

-Key Motifs: Cuphead


 * Winter

-Age: 18

-Height: 5'11"

-Weight: 115 pounds

-Likes: Sketching, reading, baking, knock knock jokes, aiding people or animals who are hurt, bugs, and carrot cake

-Dislikes: Fighting, being alone for long intervals, slugs, and needing to wear anything seen as dress clothes

-Role: Toriel

-Synopsis: Winter was born in the Spring, which everyone (including herself) jokes about. Winter is a combination between an introvert and an extrovert, often shifting when the moment needs for a specific personality. She is an aspiring artist who enjoys the little things in life and has quite a thing for animals. She often goes to the exit of the Painted Ruins to talk to a certain cool dude who enjoys knock knock jokes.

-Fun Fact: Winter's design was based off of a cover on Soundcloud for a song called "A Sketchy New Friend" (https://soundcloud.com/underrated_bag_boy/a-sketchy-new-friend) and unlike Toriel from the regular Undertale, not only does Winter often leave the Painted Ruins for a breath of fresh air every once in a while, but she also was never in a relationship with Sam (the Asgore replacement), she was only one of his friends.

-Key Motifs: Kitsune², "Memories of Corruption" from "Mario's Mystery Meat."


 * Damien

-Age: 17

-Height: Hard to tell, he's always hiding under a blanket.

-Weight: Hard to tell, he never takes off the blanket.

-Likes: Being at home, being alone, music, and carrot cake

-Dislikes: Being the center of attention for too long, taking the spotlight from others, and making others mad

-Role: Napstablook

-Synopsis: This quiet introvert loves hiding under a blanket. Damien is almost always on his knees, so it's hard to tell. Since Damien kept accidentally bumping into things, he cut eyeholes into the blanket. Don't worry, he washes it.

-Fun Fact: Originally, it was planned for Damien to be a female, but the idea changed as it just didn't fit the overall character. Unlike the normal Napstablook, Damien actually helps Aurora out a lot more than Napstablook helped out Frisk.

-Key Motifs: Earthbound


 * Enflared

-Nickname: "Enflared-Chan" (Enflared is referred to by this name once or twice by a few characters in the story)

-Age: 18

-Height: 6'1"

-Weight: 138 pounds

-Likes: All kinds of art, video games, spending time with friends, almost any kind of pie, carrot cake, every kind of pasta, cooking, baking, snow, and knock knock jokes

-Loves: Chocolate (At one point in the story, Enflared expressly states that he would kill for the good kind of chocolate.)

-Dislikes: Fighting, making others look bad, looking back on bad memories, making others feel bad, doing anything morally wrong, swearing, or watching anyone get hurt in any way

''-Indifferent towards Carrot cake. He likes it, but not his go to choice.''

-Role: Sans.

-Synopsis: After some painful rejection and bad memories of the past, Enflared has learned to move on and to be an entirely new person. Enflared is one of the few characters in the story who is aware of the resets. Unlike the regular Sans, Enflared acts more like a Papyrus, even wearing a hoodie based off of Team Switched Underswap's Papyrus (with some noticeable changes.) Enflared was close friends with a set of brothers who used to live near where he lives underground. He lives with his good friend Chloe, who personally told him about a strange flower she has been meeting. Enflared is almost completely opposed to the idea of hurting anyone, unless everyone's lives are at stake. Enflared acts as a sort of judge, as he can see LV and he can personally see who the person has killed. They met Winter at a painting class in Sunny Day (The world's version of Snowdin) and became close friends with her ever since. Unlike Sans in Undertale, Enflared takes every measure to ensure Aurora's safety, even joining her side by side, leading her through the underground and helping in battle. While they do not enjoy fighting, he was trained in the art of soul changing, allowing him to not only turn a soul any color he wants, but also allowing him to turn the entire battle box blue, making him player's soul unable to move from the center of the box. This power makes the person under its effect able to make the battle box jump, as their only way of stopping themselves from getting hit.

-Fun Fact: Enflared is one of the only characters based off of someone who actually exists in the real world. Enflared is also one of the only humans who a certain unnamed man expressly regrets sending into the underground.

''-Fun Fact 2: The 100th theme of the OST is not expressly a Megalovania. Instead, it is a replacement for Megalovania, something that is entirely new. The OST consists of 4 versions of the 100th theme: 100a, 100b, 100c, and 100d; each dependent on what the player names the fallen human.''

-Key Motifs: Jazz themes, any Papyrus motif, swing music, lo-fi (at certain points), all of his themes have some element of a piano in it.


 * Chloe

-Age: 18

-Height: 5'11"

-Weight: 107 pounds

-Likes: Cooking, sparring, gaming, Carrot cake, and making friends

-Dislikes: Being made fun of, actual fights, and getting ready in the morning

-Role: Papyrus

-Synopsis: Chloe is a kind spirit who often dreams of entering the guard. Chloe is good friends with the captain of the guard and takes cooking lesson with them. She has an energetic personality and is extremely kind, which makes it easy for her to make friends. Chloe befriended Harper one day when she found Harper on one of her walks. Chloe wears a metal breastplate and a pink pair of boots that Enflared made for her for a costume party, she also dyes half of her hair to be blonde, since she thinks it looks cool.

-Fun Fact: Chloe's character was set in stone from the second her design was made.

-Key Motifs: Spaghetti Strike Back (By Jimmy the Bassist: https://soundcloud.com/jimmythebassist/spaghetti-strike-back), Nyeh Heh Heh! and Bonetrousle, Freedom Planet


 * Jeremy

-Age: 17

-Height: 5'1"

-Weight: 104 pounds

-Likes: Will (the Undyne replacement), cookies, stripped shirts, cats, and carrot cake

-Dislikes: Watching soap operas, falling on his face, people in pain, liars, and bullying

-Role: Monster Kid

-Synopsis: Similar to Monster Kid in the regular Undertale, Jeremy is fascinated with Will (the head of the royal guard), and wants to be just like him. Jeremy remembered to have sleeves sewed onto his shirt, so he's able to stop himself from falling on his face, not that it still doesn't annoy him. Jeremy expressly hates liars or people who makes fun of others. He is often fascinated by even the smallest of things.

-Fun Fact: Since Jeremy actually has arms unlike Monster Kid, Jeremy actually puts up somewhat of a fight in the Genocide Route.

-Key Motifs: Super Mario Bros


 * Will

-Age: 18

-Height: 5'6"

-Weight: 132 pounds

-Likes: Screaming, memes (he loves memes), pain, gaming, and cooking

-Dislikes: Unwarranted pain directed at others, hurting other's feelings, people who overdramatize things, and justice being stalled

-Indifferent towards carrot cake

-Role: Undyne

-Synopsis: Will is one of Enflared and Chloe's closest friends and the head of the royal guard. He almost always wears crusader armor when on duty. Will often jokes about his view on things. Will is one of the only characters who is not straight, and who often jokes about that to Enflared. Needless to say, Enflared is not a big fan of that. Will is also extremely determined to make sure justice finds its way through, meaning he's willing to try nearly anything to free everyone from the underground.

-Fun Fact: Will wearing crusader armor is a reference to a meme. If you don't know which one, go educate yourself on it. Will is also another character who is based off of someone in the real world.

-Key Motifs: Terraria


 * Adrian

-Age: 18

-Height: 5'2"

-Weight: 111 pounds

-Likes: Screaming, being mad, repeating certain words, and their siblings

-Dislikes: Carrot cake, being mad (did I stutter?), and people not doing their job

-Role: Mad Dummy

-Synopsis: Adrian is Damien's older sibling, who can be a little blunt at times. Adrian is quick to anger, meaning they are usually ticked off for no reason. Adrian likes anime, to a point where they are actually really happy cosplaying certain characters. Adrian's character has no specific gender, meaning it does not matter if you call them a girl or a boy, either works for them, as long as you don't call them an it. That really ticks Adrian off. Unlike Undertale's Mad Dummy, Adrian is not always angry in the Neutral/Pacifist Route, meaning that when Aurora ran into them, Adrian was in a bad mood, which was very unlucky for Aurora.

-Fun Fact: In Adrian's fight, instead of Napstablook's tears ending the fight, Damien comes in and sees them fighting, prompting him to awkwardly come in and separate the two.

-Key Motifs: Mother 3


 * Josh

-Age: 19

-Height: 5'7"

-Weight: 142 pounds

-Likes: Gaming, Call of Duty, sports, memes, science stuff, and making others laugh

-Dislikes: Will's nonsense, Will's screaming, people overpacking, people forgetting stuff on trips and turning around to get the stuff, and people who find joy in other's suffering

-Role: Alphys

-Synopsis: Josh is close friends with Enflared and Will. Josh is a gamer and the king's royal scientist. Tasked with testing what determination can do, Josh and Enflared worked together, only for a large mistake to occur, making Josh susceptible to having a panic attack when thinking about the lower area of his lab. Josh doesn't really do the whole anime thing, and instead spends his free time gaming or making memes with friends.

-Fun Fact: Josh is another character who is based off of someone in the real world. Of course, the science thing isn't true to his real life variant, but it was needed to fill a role.

-Key Motifs: Halo and Skyrim


 * Jackie

-Age: 17

-Height: 5'7"

-Weight: 153 pounds (she's in a robot body, what did you expect?)

-Likes: Carrot cake, drama, action, being a star, and family

-Dislikes: People hurting her family, people taking credit for things they didn't do, and feeling underwhelmed.

-Role: Mettaton

-Synopsis: After gaining the body of her dreams by Josh's creation, Jackie finally felt she was able to fulfill her lifelong dream of becoming a star. Obviously, it worked. Josh designed a T-Shirt for Jackie's robot body. She was ok with it, since the shirt was modest. Jackie owns the JKE Resort and often goes there with her brother to perform for people. Obviously, the square toaster isn't the body of her dreams, but a simple flip of a switch would change that for her.

-Fun Fact: I don't fully remember what Jackie's name was going to be, or what her gender was originally going to be. Guess I came up with an answer anyways.

-Key Motifs: Sonic the Hedgehog (Metallic Madness)


 * Ava

-Age: 18

-Height: 5'0"

-Weight: 100 Pounds

-Likes: Baking, selling baked goods, money, carrot cake, and cats

-Dislikes: Being lied to, being outsmarted, people who aren't willing to buy her stuff, and overcooked foods

-Role: Muffet

-Synopsis: Ava is a pastry and baked goods chef who lives in the Magma Hills. She has a bunch of cats who live with her, that were somehow trained by her to help her with the baking and selling of her goods. Ava was not selling anything at first, until Enflared showed up one day and bought one of her special pastries. He talked with her a bit and even spread the word of her little shop, bringing in people from all around.

-Fun Fact: In creating the roster for Turntables: Rooted, I somehow completely forgot about Muffet, luckily, Ross-Chan was willing to throw together an idea really quickly.

-Key Motifs: Kirby and Starfy music


 * Emily

-Age: 18

-Height: 5'11"

-Weight 113 pounds

-Likes: Books, reading, math, puzzles, anything that requires her using a lot of her brainpower, Enflared, and being helpful

Dislikes: Being the center of attention for more than 1 minute, crowds of over 35 people, anyone who act overly flirty towards anyone else, being interrupted while reading or doing anything that requires a lot of her brainpower, and outfits that show too much stomach

''-She is indifferent towards carrot cake. She likes it, but thinks there are tastier choices.''

-Role: Original Role

-Synopsis: Emily was an extremely shy, lonely, and clever extrovert. She often avoided contact with guys, since most would throw flirty comments at her. One day, she was at the underground's brainiest citizen competition. She tied with Enflared, and while he was the one they handed the trophy to, he gave it to her with a big smile on his face and he told her he just went there to have fun, and that she won since she was serious about winning. At one point, Enflared drove away a few people who were making flirty comments towards her, which made her realize that Enflared was the perfect nerd she had been looking for. The two became close friends and Emily even helped Enflared lead Aurora through the Mechanical Heavens.

-Fun Fact: Emily was not the first original role created for this AU, she was the second. However, since the first character didn't have a fully fledged personality or backstory, Emily is technically the first original role that was finished.

-Key Motifs: Undertale (The Core), Oneshot


 * Stace

-Age: Good question.

-Height: 5'11 1/2"

-Weight: He doesn't believe in scales.

-Likes: Protecting others, dressing fancy, carrot cake, being dramatic, biblical readings, and jokes

-Dislikes: Getting wet, having his plans fail, killers, being interrupted in any way, and sinners

-Role: Original Role

-Synopsis: No one is exactly sure where Stace came from or why they are wearing a Bendy Mask, a top hat, and a tan suit either, but no one really questions him (mostly because almost everyone is too freaked out by him.) He is best described as being tall and lanky. Stace has an extreme distaste for sinners, and he often sings a song called "Swing you Sinner" when he knows someone is a sinner, in attempts to get them to repent. He knows Enflared and Enflared knows him, how though is uncertain. It is also uncertain how he wound up in the Green Forests, but again, almost everyone is freaked out by him, so who's going to ask him that?

-Fun Fact: This character was made a few weeks after Ross-Chan heard a megalovania for Bendy named "Bendy in - 'THE END'." So yes, that's why his motif is Bendy in - "THE END."

-Key Motifs: Bendy in- "THE END" (By Taeskull: https://soundcloud.com/taeskull-taeskull/bendy-in-the-end-v3) and Nyeh Heh Heh! + Bonetrousle


 * Jordan

-Age: 17

-Height: 5'6"

-Weight: Stace won't let him use a scale since Stace doesn't believe in scales.

-Likes: Watching Stace do his thing, hanging out in Stace's closet so he can scare him, cooking, and watching Stace attempt to make jokes or prank people

-Dislikes: Visible blood, getting wet, killers, being too cold or too warm, when there's nothing to do, and the thought of seeing Stace die

-He neither likes or dislikes carrot cake, and when you ask for his opinion, all he'll say is "meh."

-Role: Original Role

-Synopsis: Just like with Stace, no one is sure where Jordan came from or why he wears a skeletal hoodie, but people don't question him (because they're usually afraid of Stace.) Jordan is a lot calmer than Stace, and he mostly hangs around Stace because he thinks everything Stace does is really funny because he gets way too into it. No one knows why he's in the Green Forests, again though, no one asks him because Stace is usually standing next to him, and most people are afraid of Stace.

-Fun Fact: This character was made when I realized that the AU didn't have enough original roles, but I think it fits, since it feels like Stace would constantly have someone following him and memeing on him.

-Key Motifs: "Spooky, Scary skeletons" and The Binding of Isaac Afterbirth +


 * Shelbi

-Age: 17

-Height: 5'8"

-Weight: 119 Pounds

-Likes: Watching waves crash on the shore, the ocean, making new friends, spending time with friends, fruits, and Carrot cake (As long as it isn't too much at once)

-Dislikes: Violence, people who laugh uncontrollably before they even say the joke, shameless flirting (unless it isn't shameless, then she likes it), and people who try to eat more even when they're already full

-Role: Original Role

-Synopsis: Shelbi is a girl who lives in the Crystal Beaches area. She enjoys slow dancing on the sand, but almost always never has a partner to dance with, until one day, Enflared found his way down into the Crystal Beaches and met her. He saw how sad she was about not having a partner and offered to be her dance partner. He started going down every day to help her practice and became one of her closest friends. After dancing once with Aurora, she decided what better way to relax than to see some new sights and help her two dancing partners reach the king.

-Fun Fact: When creating the Crystal Beach area, I was having trouble coming up with a character for the world. I didn't have one, until I thought of a beautiful, lonely girl who wants nothing more than a dance partner.

-Key Motifs: Super Mario Galaxy, Undertale (An Ending), and lo-fi styled music


 * Sam

-Age: 18

-Height: 5'9"

-Weight: 122 pounds

-Likes: Tea, others being happy, being left alone, peace and quiet, and carrot cake

-Dislikes: Having to fight, the weight of his past sins, knowing judgement day is near, fearing over little things, and dentists

-Role: Asgore

-Synopsis: Being the "ruler" of the underground, Sam has to deal with the weight of everyone wanting him to kill the final human when really, he doesn't want to hurt anyone. Sam is sweet, and believes people are innocent until proven guilty, but it seems some people are tired of being trapped, and they want out, leaving Sam to do their dirty work. Sam is a person who is constantly being weighed down by the sins of the past, but doesn't know how to escape that weight. He knows judgement day is coming, but he's scared of what that will mean for him and his friends.

-Fun Fact: Originally, the plan was to have Underswap Sans be the king of the underground, but as the story developed, Sam was created and he fit the role of a king weighed by sins of the past perfectly.

-Key Motifs: Undertale (Megalovania) and any Undertale Asgore related theme
