Frisk
200
Frisk is the playable character, main protagonist, and the eight human in undertale. After falling into the Underground, they venture to return to the surface, whether neutrally, genocidally, or peacefully. The latter case, the True Pacifist Route, is the only one where Frisk's name is revealed, emphasizing they are not the "fallen human" that is named by the player.

Frisk is a yellow-skinned human child who wears a long-sleeve blue shirt with two purple stripes, blue pants (often depicted as shorts in the official Undertale merch), and brown shoes (usually depicted as black or in a darker tone). They have medium-length straight brown hair, short and choppy bangs, and a blank expression. Though Frisk does not show much expression in the overworld, NPCs often describe Frisk's expression. Just like the first human, they have no stated gender and are solely referred to with "they/them" pronouns throughout the game, or by generic terms (such as "child", "human", or "kid".)
Frisk's personality is usually ambiguous, allowing the player to project any personality onto Frisk since they're very often speechless to them. However, the narration that describes Frisk's actions occasionally changes depending on their LOVE. Frisk speaks to NPCs throughout the game, especially when ACTing in encounters, but the exact dialogue is shown only when the game gives multiple dialogue options. NPCs' dialogue boxes play "..." to show that the NPC is listening to Frisk, and some NPCs respond to questions that Frisk asks. Depending on their actions, players can interpret Frisk as merciful and kind, or merciless and violent. Some NPCs emphasize Frisk's kindness, understanding, and grace in the epilogue.
