King for Another Day Tournament[]

Nyeh heh heh! Everyone’s favorite soon-to-be member of the Royal Guard has put his human-hunting quest aside to join the competition! Equipped with his staple “battle body”, Papyrus will surely cook up a pasta dish that will trounce even the most fearsome opponents.

—Papyrus' description on the MOJO!!

Papyrus was revealed at the beginning of the "SiIva Direct • SiIva Lighthouse Live ∣ E3 2019". His brother, Sans, was originally invited, but he was too lazy to go, so Papyrus went instead. Papyrus' source list includes Undertale rips related to him, rips related to puzzle games, rips related to skeletons, and rips related to pasta.

Papyrus first faced Law & Disorder, but was knocked straight to the Loser's Bracket. He managed to beat Quote and King Dedede, but in Round 3 of Loser's, lost to Johnny Bravo.

Trivia[]

The bait-and-switch art used for Wario Bros..

Before Papyrus' inclusion in King for Another Day, there was art of the Wario Bros. included in its bonus package which was a bait-and-switch of their faces being replaced with Sans' and Papyrus', possibly to foreshadow his appearance in the next tournament.
Though Papyrus was stated to be a popular fan submission, the MAGFest 2020 SiIvaGunner Panel revealed that most of those submissions were actually for his brother Sans. The team saw the high demand and subverted it by including Papyrus instead.^[1]
For the livestream revealing the results of Winners' Round 2 and Losers' Round 1, Papyrus' victory quote against Quote is different from the standalone upload of the match's results.
- Livestream line: "NOW UNDYNE CAN'T REFUSE ME FROM THE ROYAL GUARD AFTER FENDING OFF THOSE TINY BOSS MONSTERS!"
- Updated line: "NOT BAD, ROBOT FRIEND!!! YOU MAY HAVE FALLEN DOWN, BUT YOU CAN USE THE JETPACK YOU'VE EQUIPPED!!"

The line was changed because this version of Papyrus is already in the Royal Guard.^[2]

He and The Jazz Cats are the only ones to use unique fonts in their quotes.
- In Papyrus' case, he uses the font he is named after.
The color palette for the background as well as the bones reference the "blue bone" attack Papyrus uses in Undertale.
