Papyrus is one of the main characters in Undertale, the 2015 role-playing game by Toby Fox, where he appears as an enthusiastic skeleton who dreams of joining the Royal Guard. His exaggerated voice and dramatic personality made him a favourite for fan edits, soundboards and memes long after the game's release. Clips labelled for disbelief or distrust are commonly shared by Japanese-speaking Undertale fans and reused in reaction videos, where Papyrus's sceptical tone instantly signals that something should not be taken seriously.
