In light of all the Sans/Gaster theories, I remembered something: The River Person.

I don't have a theory, but there are many things interesting about the figure transporting you from Snowdin to Waterfall to Hotland.

First of all, The River Person refers to themself as Man, Woman, and Person. These are all things that refer to humans.

But we all know that without thinking about any other theories, Frisk is the only living human in the Underground at the time they fell.

We also have Qutoes that hint to how to do certain things in Undertale, such as the Lesser Dog neck easter egg, Shyren's happy ending, taking the easy way out of the Muffet fight, the Piano Room puzzle, eating ButtsPie when dealing with Asgore, and Hot Dog Sans.

Nobody involved in any of these things mention the River Person. So how did the River Person find out about these things?

Then, we have "Beware of the man who speaks in hands."

And even "Beware of the man who came from the other world."

Like I said before, "Man" usually refers to humans. However, So Sorry is a dragon thingy(or just not human if ya prefer that). Gaster...let's leave that one for another day.

If the River Person knows so much, to the extent of knowing something came from another world, why call everything "man"?

Feel free to answer these questions. Maybe I'm overlooking it and the River Person was just another 4th-wall-breaking work of Toby's that has nothing to do with the game/plot except to provide clues. That's fine too.

Bonus:

MatPat Sans Theory debunkers/believers/fans/MatPat themselves look here!

Then we have "Remember to take a break every-so-often..."

Someone on this wiki added that it could be a reference to Ness's father.

Well, that makes the RIver Person Sans's father. Which kinda makes sense I guess?
