I think kris is the new knight while boat person is teaching kris offscreen and having kris inherit their title. It seems plausible in my mind if we’re going by the chess theory in the sense that each side has two knights.

u/UnderTheUmbrella08 avatar
  • I get why the Kris knight theory is so popular, but I just can't get behind it personally. It just has a few too many holes in it to fully convince me. (Also I don't believe in the chess theory either sorry....)

  • The river person on the other hand is a very interesting theory that I see a lot of potential in, especially with their valentines day card from the newsletter having a bit of mystery around it.

Dess or the vessel

u/UnderTheUmbrella08 avatar
Edited
  • The Vessel feels like the most obvious candidate, so there's not much to say there. It just kinda amounts to either someone hijacking it or it going on a rampage because without a soul it has no proper direction.

  • Dess is one of my favorite canidates because the game is already building up to her for a reason. There's just so much mystery around her right now and her being The Knight helps add to the intrigue.

Mayor holiday

u/UnderTheUmbrella08 avatar
Edited

I think she's an interesting choice, but I need to know more about her before I make my full judgement. The fact we know less about her than even Dess is pretty weird and we don't even have an official confirmation she's the mayor yet (...even though Toby is absolutely hinting she is, let's be honest).

u/Machotoast04098 avatar

She's more likely to be the knight than someone like papyrus (papyrus being the knight is so out of character of him and very unlikely)

u/UnderTheUmbrella08 avatar

True... I honestly think it would be funny if Toby just never has Papyrus show up at all. Just keep teasing him as a running gag and it turns out Sans brother is his pet rock or something silly like that.

father alvin i feel is strong

papyrus is also a possibility but has less ground

u/UnderTheUmbrella08 avatar

Father Alvin is probably in my top 3 possible Knight canidates right now (along side Dess and Gaster). With how much relevance Gerson has in the game (heck, he even introduced the Deltarune symbol in Undertale) it would make sense for either him or his son to have significance to the plot too.

I just say "we'll see when it gets revealed." Maybe in later chapters ill catch a "oh for sure thats the knight" or maybe the knight will be an original never seen before character. Either way, i just wanna wait and see.

Gaster's headless body with Papyrus' head on the top

And yes I'm serious

u/UnderTheUmbrella08 avatar

I... uh... what?

It's inspired by u/Queen_Secrecy

Tl;dr Their theory's about weird instances of "conjoined monsters" amongst other things, and how it might play out in DR. Which included Paps n' Gaster forming one body

That's my fav Knight candidate(s?) now. Cuz it works well with chess theory, n' can potentially close plot holes usual Knightyrus might've had

u/UnderTheUmbrella08 avatar

Oh, huh. I'll have to see more of the theory for myself, but it sounds interesting

Sure, give it a try, he-ha

Chara from Undertale.

u/UnderTheUmbrella08 avatar

I honestly think Chara is a more likely canidate for The Angel.

u/chromaticglasses avatar

My headcanon is that they do exist in Deltarune,, as Asriel's best friend in college, but just have zero plot relevance to the game and is only there so Toby can make callbacks to Undertale (and also so we can like, you know, see them happy for once)

That would be hilarious, but he's unlikely to be the knight. He will probably be a reoccuring boss though.

You can tell it’s a good theory when they beg you not to believe it (I did)

Gaster is the knight, now hear me out

We all know that Deltarune is highly based on chess, even carrying over to Chapter 2 with Queen. In a dogcheck room (or at least I’ve heard it’s a dogcheck room), there’s someone at a horse stable who speaks in wingdings, meaning they’re obviously connected to Gaster. What’s the knight in chess? A horse. Then there’s the Egg. “Egg“ in wingdings is 👆👉👉, which are the same movements of a knight in chess. (This next part is my own addition to the theory) Not to mention that Gaster labels Deltarune as his next experiment, so he has to keep the story going. How does he do that? By opening Dark Fountains.

theory originally by everyone’s favorite modder Cibles

u/UnderTheUmbrella08 avatar

Definitely the most convincing theory, but I'm on the fence if Gaster will end up being the Knight or if he'll be the Angel instead.

Knight Mayor

Mandaloregaming is the knight, specifically drunk Mandy. The motive for his actions is to reunite with Kris who is his bastard son conceived with Toriel during a high school reunion party while they were both drunk. When Kris takes out the soul, Kris becomes Sseth.

Someone we HAVEN'T met yet maybe? -._-.

Serious guess-Papyrus

Silly guess-Noelle

Obviously Papyrus knight theory needs no explanation, but I’ve had Noelle knight stuck in my head for awhile now and I can’t really explain why it’s mostly anecdotal evidence but it makes sense to me.

Alternatively, the knight could be the egg man in some sort of miitopia-esque plot twist.
