Papyrus is one of the main characters in Undertale, the 2015 role-playing game created by Toby Fox, where he patrols Snowdin hoping to capture a human and join the Royal Guard. That ambition drives many of his best-known scenes and fan animations on YouTube, including Piemations parodies that exaggerate his loud, earnest voice. Clips of his discovery reaction spread through gaming and meme communities because the character treats a routine encounter like a historic achievement, making the audio easy to reuse for reveals, searches and overconfident announcements online.
