“ | SOON, THE "QUEEN" RETURNS, AND HELL'S ROAR BUBBLES FROM THE DEPTHS... LIGHTNERS, CAN YOU STOP IT? | „ |
~ Jevil alluding to the Roaring after being defeated by the Fun Gang by violence. |
“ | When the LIGHT is subsumed by SHADOW, when the FOUNTAINS fill the sky, all will fall into CHAOS. The TITANS will take form from the FOUNTAINS and envelop the land in devastation. The surviving Darkners, crushed by the darkness, will slowly, one by one, turn into statues... leaving the Lightners to fend for themselves. Lost eternally in an endless night... is that your idea of paradise? | „ |
~ Ralsei describing the Roaring, convincing Berdly to stop his plan to make a Dark Fountain. |
The Titans are the overarching antagonists of the 2018 role-playing game Deltarune, a spin-off to the 2015 indie role-playing game Undertale.
They are a group of primordial dark beings that are prophesied to lay waste upon both the Light and Dark Worlds once there are enough Dark Fountains active. For whatever reason, the Knight seeks to summon them.
Appearance[]
As their sole appearance had been in a flashback, it is currently unknown what the Titans truly look like. Basing off the flashback, however, it appears as if they are shadowy, faceless entities composed entirely of darkness. The one in the middle appears to be bulky and gargantuan, and has horns protruding from its head. The titans on the left and the right are more spindly, having twig-like arms, lanky bodies, and a diamond-shaped face. All of the Titans have specks of shadow surrounding them, with the middle one in particular having sparks of light on its abdomen.
Personality[]
Because they have yet to appear in the game in-person, the behavior of the Titans is left ambiguous. Considering how they'll destroy the world if too many Dark Fountains are active, it can be inferred that they are entities that crave destruction.
However, it is equally as likely that the Titans are merely a morally grey force of nature, as their reason for destroying the world is due to the presence of too many Dark Fountains active at once, which could indicate that they only destroy the world to start anew after a disruption in the universe's balance. Overall, the Titans are too ambiguous to truly describe.
Biography[]
Chapter 1: The Beginning[]
Though not directly mentioned in Chapter 1, the presence of the Titans is still alluded to in the Legend of Delta Rune, with Ralsei stating that a great tragedy will occur, and that three heroes must "banish the Angel's Heaven" by sealing away any other Dark Fountains.
If defeated using violence, Jevil makes a reference to the Roaring, stating that the "Queen" will soon rise and Hell's bubbles will follow suit, asking Kris, Susie, and Ralsei if they can stop this from happening.
Chapter 2: A Cyber's World[]
The Titans make their first physical appearance in Chapter 2. Prior to the flashback, Berdly mentions his plans to create another Dark Fountain after Queen's defeat. Ralsei is understandably horrified of this, and explains to him that the Titans will wreak havoc upon the land. As the Dark Fountains glow brightly in the world, the Titans will slowly turn every Darkner to stone and cover the Light World in darkness, leaving any living Lightners to fend for themselves in eternal shadow. Both Queen and Berdly are shaken up about this, as Berdly didn't knew he would cause a world-ending chaos and Queen didn't knew about any of this until now.
Trivia[]
- In the flashback, the foremost Titan has eye markings similar to the ones found engraved on the walls of ?????, a secret area found in Chapter 1.
- Interestingly, despite Queen claiming to not know of the Roaring's cataclysmic effects, she still refers to the Knight as "The Roaring Knight" when approached after freeing Berdly from his brainwashing, despite that taking place before finding out about what the Roaring was. It is possible that the Knight merely calls itself this, but this directly contradicts the fact Queen seemingly never met them in person and is only guessing after seeing what it's done.
- It is unknown whether the Titans already exist in an inactive state or if they would be created as a result of the Roaring itself. The prophecy mention of them taking form from the Fountains could mean the Titans will be created from the Fountains or are the Fountains themselves taken form.
- The Titans and the Roaring may have been inspired by Attack on Titan's concept of the Rumbling, which likewise involves beings called Titans emerging to destroy the world.
