Character Bio
Butcher’s younger brother and avowed royal head chef of the castle. Considering the amount of hardship he’s been through, Pyre’s optimistic outlook on life and sunny disposition are evidence of just how resilient his soul is. Go ahead and ask him how he got his nickname - he’ll be more than happy to tell you the story!
Pyre is passionate to a fault about protecting the people he cares about, even being overzealous at times, but also isn’t afraid to stand up for himself when push comes to shove. And he certainly isn’t responsible for anyone’s messes or poor behavior! He has life to live and isn’t about to squander this second chance at living on cleaning up after everyone else!
[Scene: PLAYER meets Pyre in the Kitchen (first encounter)]
(cheerful)
Ah! Greetings, new human! Welcome to our humble home!
Hmm…
Then again, I suppose a castle isn’t exactly a humble sort of home, now is it?
Regardless - this is now your home as well!
So please, do let me know if there’s any way I can help you to settle in!
[Scene: Pyre is shocked at his own lack of manners when introducing himself to the PLAYER]
(shocked)
(GASP!)
Where are my manners?!
I am Papyrus, the greatest royal head chef to have ever graced this kitchen with such extraordinary culinary skill!
[Scene: Pyre intercepts PLAYER in the Main Hall during a Genocide run]
(serious/angry)
Human.
I’m sorry that we failed you somehow.
But you’ve failed us as well.
Prepare yourself.
Your despicable onslaught ends here and now!
