sn... o... wy...

Snowdrake's Mother

Snowdrake's Mother (known in-battle as "Amalgamate") is one of Snowdrake's parents and a byproduct of Alphys's unfortunate Determination experiments. She drops the Blue Key upon defeat.

Profile

Appearance

In the True Lab, the protagonist encounters her initially disguised as a fridge. After revealing her true form, she appears to be a Snowdrake-like monster. However, she suffers from the same problems as the other Amalgamates. Half her body is nearly melting off the other half, giving her a more amorphous form. Her attacks are also unorthodox and lackluster. They are similar to that of Snowdrake, but much less dangerous and on point. In fact, at some points, the entire attack is impossible to get hit by. The odd and seemingly weak nature of these attacks, as well as the text "Seems like it's losing itself." and her animation, seem to indicate that she is falling apart.

Two Vegetoid-esque mouths replace her eyes, and the snowflake crest on her head now possesses a "face" at its top point, with the two nearest points to it ending in hands. The circular decoration also resembles an eye. The tip of her beak appears to be chipped, as well as her entire top jaw being speckled with spots.

Main Story

She is the mother of the Snowdrake in Snowdin as well as the wife of the Snowdrake-like comedian in the MTT Resort. She became one of Alphys's determination experiments after she "fell down" and was donated.

True Pacifist Route

Snowdrake screenshot family

Snowdrake Family Reunited

At the end of the True Pacifist Route, she is seen reunited with her family, who happily accept her despite sharing her mind and body with 16 other monsters; her husband says their family is "bigger than ever."

In Battle

Attacks

Compared to the other Amalgamates, Snowdrake's mother puts up an underwhelming fight against the protagonist. She has various attacks, but most of them are harmless and occasionally impossible to touch due to them being outside of the bullet board. These attacks can vary from spinning blades starting from the top of the box and accelerating to the side, to the same blades falling outside of the box, to even blades that barely move, none of which ever come into contact with the SOUL's starting position. The blades she uses are the same that Snowdrake uses.

Her most dangerous attack is where 1 to 5 spinning blades drop down from the top, but that does not even necessitate the SOUL to move to dodge and only causes one damage.

Strategy

The battle ends once the protagonist jokes three times, which calms her down and causes her to leave.
