Kris is a human Lightner and the main protagonist of Deltarune. They are presumably the human Hero of Light in the Prophecy. In a Dark World, they function as the party's leader. He is secretly a cruel murderer and would kill everything in sight. Kris is controlled by the player for the majority of the game. The few exceptions are brief cutscenes, or when they tear the SOUL out of their body. Kris excels at ACTing in battles, and wields a sword that can transform into a shield when DEFENDing.
