Sans is a major character in the video game Undertale, acting as a guide to Frisk in the game's Neutral and Pacifist Routes and the final boss in the Genocide Route. Sans is aware that the timeline is often reset, an ability first used by Flowey and later Frisk, and posses a nihilistic aditude towards life because of this. He does posses a good sense of humor, however, and deeply cares for his brother Papyrus.
Much of Sans's life before moving to Snowdin is unknown, though the objects found in his lab and the fact that he is acquainted with Alphys suggests he might have been a scientist at some point. One day, he befriended Toriel by exchanging knock knock jokes with her and promising that if he ever met a human in the Underground, he would do his best to protect them.
After Frisk left the Ruins, Sans and Papyrus were the first monsters they encountered. If Firsk hasn't killed any monster at that point, Sans will be friendly towards them, but if they did he will try to dissuade them from taking anymore lives. In the Neutral and Pacifist routes, Sans will make sporadic appreances, showing up in random locations. Shortly before Frisk's confrontation with Asgore, Sans will judge them for their action in the Last Corridor. In the Neutral and Pacifist routes, he allows them to pass. In the Genocide Route, however, he attacks them in the hopes of making them give up and qutting their murder spree. Should Frisk persist, Sans is ultimately killed.
In the Neutral Ending, Sans calls Frisk and informs them of the impact that their choices have on the Underground after they returned to the surface world. In the Pacifist Ending, Sans and the rest of Frisk's allies are captured by a revived Asriel Dreemurr, but is freed through the child's efforts and joins the other monsters on the surfaces world.
Battle vs. Giygas (by LokoDito)[]
...
...
...
(Sans was walking in a snowy field near his home in Snowdin when he felt something different in the atmosphere.)
...
...
Spiteful Crow: Squawk!
(Sans came across what looked like a crow. Such crows were common in these forests. But it looked... horrible. Like something had warped it from its original design. Feeling threatened, Sans prepared to fight.)
Sans: Hello...
(Spiteful Crow attempted to peck at Sans's eyes but the skeleton dodged it. Sans then took control of the crow using Soul Manipulation, before bashing it on the ground, killing it.)
Sans: Poor thing...
(Sans looked up and saw more Spiteful Crows coming at him. With no other choices left, he decided to end this quickly.)
Sans: Brrrrrdddddd...
(Giant snake-like jaws appeared out of nowhere and blasted lasers that incinerated all the crows.)
Sans: This is not right. Something is wrong.
(A voice in his head called Sans to go deeper into the forest. With curiosity adding even more bother, Sans did as the voice said. He walked and walked, and came across a giant flesh-like abomination, complete with intestine-like structures on the ground, a giant "womb", and machineries all around.)
Sans: So it is you! You are the one who have cursed the forest!
Giygas: ...
Sans: Well? Are you going to say something?
Giygas: All... y...our... base... belongs... to... us.
Sans: Huh? Is that a threat? Do you think you can conquer my home and enslave us like that?!
Giygas: Why... you... talk... brrrrrrddddd... You... sound... like... P...a...t...rick
Sans: Oh yeah? Bring it!
(Sans attacked first by trying to take control of Giygas's soul. It proved tricky since Giygas was nothing he had ever seen before. So Sans decided to summon bones instead. Bones jutted everywhere on the ground, air, and the screen, hitting Giygas. But Sans's attacks were redirected back to him. Though Sans managed to dodge them, he was surprised.)
Sans: Woah! What was that?!
Giygas: R...e...l...e...a...s...e... Mother... 3... Fire Emblem... sux...
(Sans attempted yet again to attack, this time with a gigantic endless wave of bones. But again, his attacks proved nothing and were only redirected.)
Sans: Damn you...
Giygas: F...r...eeeeeeee.... Me... Need... Big... Mac...
(Sans took a closer look at the machine. And yes, it seemed that something was trapped inside. It could be his target, and the machine was the reason why his attacks were doing nothing. So... he decided to walk forward, press a button, and release the monster. An inhuman screech filled the whole forest, making Sans cover his ears. The whole sky turned red and something monstrous appeared in the clouds, twisting and bending itself.)
Sans: Hmmph! You are just a space fart! Prepare to die!
(Sans summoned gigantic snake-like creatures that shot laser beams at the monster. But still nothing happened.)
Giygas: Vote... Bernie... Sanders...
(Giygas unleashed Psi Rocking which rippled and caused mayhem all around the forest. Sans again dodged that attack but even he knew it was too close. He must not underestimate his enemy.)
Sans: You wanna conquer and eat everything?! Well, eat this!
(Sans used teleportation to try and surround Giygas in all direction with numerous gaster blasters. He fired them all, causing quite the damage that Giygas screamed and twisted.)
Giygas: Chadwick... Boseman... robbed... at... Oscars...
(A powerful green flash of light appeared like a shot of a camera. Again, Sans managed to dodge it, but lo and behold! This monster was getting really really close!)
Sans: I... am... getting... tired. Listen! I can just stop playing and let you be stuck here! I can do that, you know!
(But Sans didn't. He wanted to prove his worth and save his home. He summoned even more gaster blasters and teleported Giygas into their cross sights. The blasters fired, all at once, creating a mini supernova as energy reached the skies. Yet, Giygas was still alive, and Sans had wasted all his opportunities.)
Sans: Damn you... (pant)(pant)
(Giygas summoned a big lightning bolt from out of nowhere. Sans easily dodged it. However, he did not know that the move was capable of hitting a target twice. It was too late for Sans to dodge as he got struck, and that second attack finally killed him.)
Giygas: Flat... earthers... are... dumbasses...
(Giygas earned 400 experience points, making him larger and more powerful.)
Expert's Opinion[]
Even though Sans was a tricky fighter who could have won this battle through his speed and gameplay manipulation, Giygas proved to be too tough of an opponent. Giygas has the reality manipulation to turn the forest against Sans, the devil machine acting as an armor, and the ability to attack twice which can catch Sans off guard. And remember, it was getting caught off guard that killed Sans in his game. Sans is also pretty weak physically, and all Giygas has to do is get one clean shot.
