The thorn ring damages Noelle until at 55 health. If you look into it, 55 in roman numerals is LV. So I think toby did that intentionally.

When I first found out about this route, I really didn't believe it since the method is really out of the way unlike Undertale's Genocide route. Going through this route made me feel like the scum of the earth for traumatizing Noelle, good job Toby Fox. And glad that you're enjoying (suffering through is more accurate) this route too, Merg!

[@faolanplays]

A very interesting secret is the hp that Noelle is reduced to in the fight with Berdly goes to 55, and in roman numerals it is “LV” which is just crazy to think about, Toby knows how to hide his secrets a bit too well

The original finder of the route, Brandini, apparently found it on his second playthrough when he went back with Noelle to get an item he forgot, he probably didn't trigger the route completely on his first attempt, but he most likely pieced together everything.

[@matheustagawadeoliveira4492]

I honestly don't understand why so many people hate Berdly, he was a really funny character for me and I personally think Toby Fox nailed his little character development. His backstory with Noelle hits WAY harder after what happens in this route and the fact that he drops the smug act when he sees Noelle with Kris just shows he is a good guy deep down, he is just "annoying"

[@whiskeredwolf4861]

I find it really interesting that the game gives you so many options where you could have picked one and cancelled the whole route. I like to imagine it’s Kris hysterically going “NO NO NO” and you basically overrule them by choosing Proceed every time they give you the option to back out.

[@charba4t391]

I have a crazy theory that Kris is Chara. In Undertale, Chara manipulates Frisk to kill, as Frisk kills more monsters, Frisk loses control and possibly his own soul at the end of the Genocide Route. In Deltarune, Kris manipulates Noelle to kill, as Noelle kills more darkners, she loses control and possibly her own soul. That's why she “blacks out” she's not doing the killing, Kris is making her do it. Kris “Makes” her do things she doesn't want to do. As did Chara with Frisk in Undertale. I do not know if it's just a weird coincidence, but I found it very unsettling how similar their behaviour is.

[@enchanteds0N]

⁠@@charba4t391it’s an interesting theory but chara doesn’t manipulate frisk at all in genocide, i think it’s more like the opposite because chara states at the end that when they woke up they were so confused but with **our** guidance they realized why they have been “reincarnated” anyways chara isn’t innocent either, we just warp their mind into just keep killing. in the pacifist route chara helps us in many ways including saving asriel

[@itsxiuuu]

​@@charba4t391yeah interesting theory but chara didn't manipulate frisk to kill, the player did

[@Pigismal]

Chara didn't really do much of anything, Frisk is pretty much killing of their own volition and since frisk is basically an extension of the player chara acts pretty much as a witness the whole route

this route is legitimately terrifying. the worst part is, you know this isn't the end of it. there's no way this is the end of it. but noelle doesn't seem to be in kris's house, which means she's likely not going to be in the newest dark world. does that mean it's going to be someone else?

[@silverstone9836]

i actually kind of got a theory on this since the new fountain was made in his House and so its pretty natural to assume Toriel will be put into it but most likely also Undyne since Toriel called the Cops and (Kris) opend the door for them to get inside. So im wondering if maybe when Toriel and Undyne get in the Dark World they might transform into there Undertale Counterparts without the Memories of this Deltarune Universe

[@eaglefan2569]

I somehow get the distinct feeling that Deltarune's Genocide route is getting each of Kris's classmates to slowly but surely turn on each other, survival of the fittest style, so the biggest threats to Player are taken care of.

Theory: The "Snowgrave" run is the player preparing Noelle to become the new Kris/protagonist . Which would make sense due to Kris's regular defiance to the player (aka when he removes the soul and leaves the area of view)

[@fifiannisa9639]

Oohhh I like that. Since we can't actually kill monsters with Kris but we can froze/kill them with Noelle. But since Noelle is a monster, I don't think she can handle the Soul. I think Soul can only exist inside a human and if monsters have it, their body would be destroyed. I haven't visited the Undertale fandom for a while, I could be wrong about this.

[@iulius2226]

No, it doesn't. In undertale, Asriel got chara's soul and became more powerfull, he managed to go the surface with chara's corpe and place it in human village on some flowers, the human noticed and attacked Asriel, he could attack them, but refused and got killed.

Fun facts: In the first Annoying Mouse Room, you don’t have to do that “proceed” thing It’s completely optional but it’s so cool that that sort of hint to future events can be triggered After getting the Freeze Ring, instead of being fearful when going into battle, Noelle just slides into place If Kris’ HP reaches 0 in the Berdly fight, Berdly will tell Noelle to come to him, but Noelle will say that she can “still hear their voice”

[@quantumblauthor7300]

Kris is "huffs markers and hides under neighbors' cars" weird. The Snowgrave route player is _evil_

[@eaglefan2569]

We also get insight into how Kris feels about all of it. When Kris meets back up with Susie and Ralsei, they notice that Kris "doesn't look so good", and Susie gets cut off from saying they look like they're sick. And, well... Kris has been defending the entire time in battle, hardly a scratch on them. Then the real kicker, once Spamton NEO triggers his defense: *_"Kris_* cried for help... but nobody came." *_"You_* whispered Noelle's name." Snowgrave confirms multiple times that all these horrid actions are the Player. From Noelle's realization near the end of Snowgrave that Kris is acting strange and had a terrifying voice that wasn't there, to if Kris gets downed in the Berdly fight and Noelle saying she can "still hear their voice", to Susie and Ralsei visibly noticing something's off with Kris when they meet back up, to Ralsei queueing in Player leaving to watch the Susie cutscene, only for it to not happen. Noelle even touches on some of Kris's "worst" behaviors. Over and over again, the route gives you option after option to stop. There's no one to blame for the way this route went but the Player. Because Kris didn't *_want_* any of that to happen. They're able to control their body language in times of great emotion outside of the players control, so the fact they looked hurt and sick speaks volumes (by the way, some further evidence for this; when you try to play the piano in the hospital, Susie notes that Kris looks pissed (because Kris can play the piano, but Player can't), and Spamton NEO's Pacifist secret boss ending has Kris either say 'yes' strained (as if forced to lie) or yell 'no' (as if finally getting an outlet). It wasn't as mentioned with these specific little tidbits in Chapter 1 as it is Chapter 2). Kris is mischievous, yes. They do like pranks, they do like causing chaos. But they don't wanna be anywhere near Snowgrave's levels, given their reaction. It sucks we made them watch this all go down.

Fun Fact: In this version of the Berdly fight, his sprite appears more serious, and he can only use that one attack, but it’s a bit harder than normal. Edit: apparently, he actually has two attacks, but the other one is also harder.

[@Mopsikus]

He can use 2 attacks actually, someone got the tornado one

[@burgerburger7975]

I really like that detail, because it shows how much he cares about Noel. He dropped his smug facade and dramatic acting the second he realized Noel could be in genuine danger. Like Queen said: He's a good guy, just annoying. And I love him for it.

[@bcwtslbk7943]

Something interesting I noticed is that whenever you make a significant choice to proceed down the snowgrave route, it plays the same little jingle. It sounds awfully like an inverse of the noise the mystery man makes when you inspect him in Undertale.

[@kevinkk8451]

Deltarune: Your choices doesn’t matter Also deltarune: Ah yes, there is a secret route that you can take if you *choose* to walk backwards when meeting Noelle.

My mom walked in right as merg screamed out, “We’re just drugging her!”

[@AndrBR0]

Currently, I’m playing game neutral/non snowgrave genocide route(I have more HP, but less in Final fight. Does it reminds you of something? Anyway...) and I defeated Berdley by Attacking him(it results in his arm getting harmed or maybe I missed something, cause in first fight against Queen he is trying to unplug himself damaging arm/wing in process). In scene where 4 protagonists wake up, Berdley notices that he cannot move his arm...

[@daveraven7184]

I really enjoy this Merg, because you're 1 of the few youtubers that go deep into the secrets of the games they like. Also notice small things like changes in the music, the dialogue, the animations... Makes it feel like all the work Toby put was worth the trouble.

So I watched Mariusu (sorry if I spelt that wrong) play this route a week or two ago when it first came out. And I was horrified because of it to the point were it kept me up a bit at night. Something about this route hits different than the gen one in undertale. I guess it’s because Noelle’s reactions to us doing things feel so real that it can honestly spook the player a bit (unless your super brave lol) but honestly I just feel bad for her. We are practically backing her in a corner. Sorry for the long comment.
