The Royal Guard in Undertale

The Royal Guard are two enemy characters encountered in Undertale. They are two large male monsters in armor, one a dragon and one a rabbit. Dialogues during the battle with them imply that Royal Guard 01 has romantic feelings for Royal Guard 02. If the player uses the check command on the battle menu during a genocide playthough, the description reads “two lovers staring over the edge of the cauldron of hell.”
