Ummm...

H-h-hiya! I'm Dr. Alphys. I'm ASGORE's royal scientist!

~ Alphys
UNDYNE!!! I CAN'T TAKE THIS ANY LONGER!!! I'M MADLY IN LOVE WITH YOU!!! HOLD ME, UNDYNE!! HOLD ME!!!
~ Alphys

Alphys is a character encountered in the 2015 indie-game Undertale. She is the Royal Scientist who works in the Lab located in Hotland. Alphys has a crush on Undyne, the leader of the Royal Guard.

Appearance

Alphys appears to be a yellow reptile-like monster and has almost the same height to Frisk. She is seen wearing a white lab coat and glasses. Afterwards during her date, she is wearing a black and white polka dot dress, which she also wears in other special occassions.

Personality

Alphys is a nerdy, shy recluse with a fondness for human anime and manga. She is very insecure, worrying about what other monsters think of her. Her failed experiments with Determination that involved the creation of the amalgates definitely contributed to this, as she was filled with guilt, told nobody and became depressed. She has crush on multiple characters (some mild, others more serious), but struggles to communicate her feelings. She deeply cares for other monsters, as evidenced if Frisk follows a Genocide Route but aborts it in Hotland; after hearing Undyne's last words and evacuating the monsters, Alphys, whose resolve is strengthened, becomes their ruler. Even after people discovered her failed experiments with determination, they treated her as a hero, much to her surprise. She mourns the loss of her friends, then says that she really should have killed Frisk when she had the chance.

History

Past

Little is known about her personal history, except that she met Undyne at the Garbage Dump and that Alphys created the Amalgamates via an experiment involving Determination afterwards.

In Undertale

She first meets Frisk as the latter enters her lab in.

Trivia

  • Her name is actually an anagram of the term "shy pal", fitting most of her shy personality.
  • Several of the Neutral Endings are very vague about Alphys's fate, with some not even mentioning her. Usually, in endings where Undyne or Mettaton is killed, Alphys disappears, nowhere to be found by other characters. Many of these endings imply that Alphys had somehow died. For example, if Frisk killed Toriel, Undyne, and Mettaton, but not Papyrus, Sans, not wanting to upset Papyrus, will lie to him about them, plus Asgore and Alphys going on vacation. Given that he listed Alphys among characters who are confirmed to be deceased; this implies that Alphys may have died too.
    • In the True Lab, Alphys implies that she might not come back, not because of the Amalgates killing her, but because she worried that she might be too afraid to tell the truth and would run away or do something cowardly, which may possibly be commiting suicide. Given that Alphys is nowhere to be found in some endings where Undyne or Mettaton is killed, it is possible that she may have done one of these.
  • Before the protagonist enters the True Lab, there is a note in the bin that reads "I KNOW WHAT YOU DID." Flowey may have written this to sadistically push Alphys into revealing her secrets.
  • According to Entry Number 20 in the True Lab, Asgore found a cute teacup that looks like Alphys.Template:Undertale Heroes
