Muffet is one of my all-time favourite Undertale characters.

She's a pretty minor character, as a miniboss that only appears twice (in her battle and the True Pacifist credits), but I absolutely adore her.

Muffet genuinely cares about the spiders, and will do anything---even kill Frisk---to help them. Her bake sales are so pricey because she is desperate to help the spiders trapped in the Ruins get home. She only traps and fights you because she has no other way to get money from you.

Some might call Muffet greedy, but she needs the money to help her family. I really wish that Muffet appeared more in the game, because she has a much deeper background than you might think. Her AU counterpart from Mafiatale made me think, because in that particular AU, she is a somewhat-shady businesswoman. She still strives for money, but differently, somehow.

If you're still not convinced, think back. After finishing the True Pacifist Route, you can go back and talk to Muffet. She tells you happily, "I've tallied up all the donations..." and goes on to explain that she can now safely transport the spiders from the Ruins back to their home. The key word there is 'donations.' Muffet does not consider the money she receives payment, but generosity from those who are willing to help her.

In conclusion, I think that Muffet is a kind-hearted spider girl with a talent for baking and a love for her family.
