Another thing I forgot to add, and on this one I agree with Ineedacoffee. I feel like Chara didn't want to hurt the Dreemurrs, but had to manipulate them for the sake of their plan. And Chara could cut down any monster they wanted, but that would lead to dire consequences. Despite their most prominent trait being determination, I doubt they could SAVE and Reset. I believe that Frisk's determination fused with Chara's when they fell onto Chara's grave (the flowerbed) giving Frisk twice the amount of determination a normal human would have, thus giving them the power to SAVE and Reset. And unless you're a super hardcore player, I can almost guarantee you've died at least once in Undertale, so that plan probably wouldn't work for Chara. The "laughing off" for the buttercup situation is a little ambiguous for me. There is a lot of evidence it's just a coping mechanism, however there is evidence that Chara really DOES enjoy the suffering of others. So it's kind of hard to tell. And I never said that Chara killed anyone, oh no. The only person they really killed was themselves. But Chara was very, very determined after all. They may not be a sicko because they'd probably feel remorse for having to kill their family, but they would have if it meant that it was "for a greater cause". Or revenge. My theory is that Chara hated humans because of what they did to monsters, well it's probably not correct but it's the only solid piece of evidence we have. And Flowey even SAYS that Chara stole Frisk's soul. While he may of just been projecting a little bit, like in Pacifist where he assumed Frisk was Chara anyway, this is heavily implied to be true. That's all I got. I really don't believe Chara is a bad person, but I doubt I'll ever call Chara a good person for what they've done. Undertale does teach us that nobody is good or bad, so who knows?
