Powers and Techniques

Superhuman Physical Characteristics, Incoporeal Aspects (Monsters physiologies show they are mostly made of magic, noting that humans have a "physical form"[1], along with having their SOUL directly attuned to their body[2]), Magic (All monsters are made of magic, being able to do things like make "bullet-patter cards" with their magic[3]), Personal Domain & Battlefield Removal (When one encounters a monster they get into a fight, a FIGHT is an encounter in a monster's personal domain allowing them to fight humans, this has various rules such as turn-based combat), Creation (Monsters can make weapons, clothes and even food from magic), Limited Spatial Manipulation (Monsters can at times influence the battle box), Transmutation & Healing (Monsters can turn their attacks into healing projectiles), Absorption (Monsters and humans can absorb the SOUL as long as the person isn’t the same species as them), Curtain Fire, Soul Manipulation & Essence Manipulation (All attacks in Undertale are to the SOUL).


Resistance to Physical Attacks (All monsters bodies are attuned to their SOUL thus only attacks that can affect their SOUL can affect them[4]), Soul Manipulation & Essence Manipulation (Can take hits to the SOUL)


Equipment

His Spear


Other

Standard Tactics: Greater will force his opponent into his personal domain before attacking their soul directly

Weaknesses: Greater is not the brightest and mostly wants to play. All monsters are weak to an attack with killing intent behind it and if a monster doesn't want to fight, they are weakened greatly.

  1. While monsters are mostly made of magic, human beings are mostly made of water.
    Humans, with their physical forms, are far stronger than us.
    But they will never know the joy of expressing themselves through magic.
    They’ll never get a bullet-pattern birthday card...
  2. Because they are made of magic, monsters’ bodies are attuned to their SOUL.
    If a monster doesn’t want to fight, its defenses will weaken.
    And the crueler the intentions of our enemies, the more their attacks will hurt us.
    Therefore, if a being with a powerful SOUL struck with the desire to kill...
    Um, let’s end the chapter here...
