Ferry
Thanks for stepping on my face. Here's the 3 gold.
Ferry
Ferry[note 1] is a minor character in Undertale. They are found in Waterfall and can be used to quickly travel.
Ferry is a purple monster sticking out of the water. The only part of them that is visible is a small flat face with closed eyes and a "w" shaped smile.
Ferry is thankful for having their face stepped on.
Ferry appears after the first chase sequence with Undyne, upon leaving the room and coming back. When spoken to, they simply state "Three gold for the ferry."
If the protagonist accepts the offer, they can travel from directly before the "Crystal" room to the area directly after the Wishing Room and vice versa. After each trip, Ferry gives the protagonist 3G for stepping on their face and thanks them, subverting the expectation that the protagonist would be charged 3G instead of receiving 3G. The protagonist can repeat the process infinitely, as an inefficient source of GOLD farming.
Ferry does not allow umbrellas while they are transporting the protagonist.[2]
If the protagonist has continued the Genocide Route until at least killing Papyrus, Ferry does not appear.[3]
