Papyrus is a flamboyant skeleton who presents a confident, charismatic image of himself. He works hard and, despite his brash personality, is kind at heart.

Impersonations of him mostly come upon a mutual style. This style sounding similar to the voice of Skeletor from the cartoon He-man, with a High-Medium vocal range. He rolls his R's occasionally to give words emphasis and elegance. His voice should also reflect his confidence and optimistic attitude.
