(I claimed Undyne, and left the rest of the characters as NPCs. Basically, I'd play them until they get claimed. That way, I could provide context to the summoning, without just claiming every Undertale character ever and preventing you all from playing as one. Then I realized I was starting to give them development, and eventually, my versions of those characters would be the only versions consistent with what I've done with them so far. Luckily I haven't reached that point yet. And now I'm just leaving them in the sidelines and letting the future claimers interpret what happened after my last post with Sans and Papyrus for themselves. And trying to find reasons why they couldn't/wouldn't just rush right into those portals, which would practically promote them to PCs. And allowing for alternate Undertale worlds.)

(Oh, you meant in-canon? Well, Undyne, and many other random characters [They're NPCs right now, and nameless-Basically the characters people will make that has Peace chosen as a cult, and Butterfly's NPCs] got summoned to this world by Tinker, since Peace said it'd be convincnet to have random characters willing to join her just show up, and Undyne's about to join Peace's cult, also having been summoned right next to Peace. Meanwhile, Peace is currently already in the volcanic valley, searching for the Immortalkiller.)
