bro, did you not read my comment? I did just that BEFORE I wrote this.
I got to night five before my first death (bad luck on that one) and then proceeded to beat night 6 first try, so "git gud" does not apply. AND I looked up advice from those who beat it. they agreed that it was RNG even with the best strategy.
do not mistake your luck for skill.
so this might be a bug, but i'm counting it as a feature. it seems if you Copy X a character, choose a palette past 6 (the max for kobold), and then Copy X the kobold, you get the toriel colors with kobold shapes. when using the prismatic apple to check if this is just me and the body shape (most notebly, the head) visibly changes when scrolling over the toriel skin. this is NOT a complaint though, as i actually love the albino kobold i ended up with and hope it will be a permenant skin.
Edit: double checked, and this glitch happens when i switched from copying fox #6 and then copying the kobold. again, not a problem to be solved, but a hopeful addition.
also of note, this change was visible on the map, though the map sprite might just be the toriel one. idk, too small to tell.
