**Rebound!Papyrus**, also known as Rebound, is a Papyrus variant created by **NikkoNijime07**. He’s an Out!Code moderator that was created some time after the making of Voltage!Sans, and was made for the sole purpose of returning important entities; ones that have have somehow gotten out of their own AUs (Alternate Universes), back to their original worlds. On the contrary, if the entity’s AU has been destroyed or corrupted, Rebound is not required to return them.

Rebound, like Voltage in some way, is capable of immediately being alerted of an entity exiting their AU. However, this signal will not come through if the entity themselves has left their AU with authorized permission from Error!Sans or Ink!Sans; if they did manage to get permission to leave their AU, Rebound!Papyrus is not allowed to return the entity back to their original world.

If the escapee of an AU resists on being returned to their AU, Rebound will have to forcefully put them back. No matter how bad the AU is, as long as the AU is alive, Rebound is required to return the entity back to their world at all costs.

## Biography

### Prior to Creation

After the creation of Voltage!Sans, along with the Multiverse rapidly growing once more, the Guardians began to notice that some of the major entities of a few AUs have somehow gotten out of their worlds. At first, the situation was pretty easy to deal with, as all they needed to do was just teleport the entities back to their AUs.

Though, as time passed by, more and more major characters began to escape or get out of their own worlds. Now, whenever an entity somehow finds their way outside of their own AU, they are unable to respawn once being killed, leading to the automatic erasure of their existence. If the entity being erased plays an important role in their AU, such as being the Judge or main Protagonist in their world, their AU would cease to exist, due to having the major character being missing in the story line.

As the seemingly small situation began to grow, many AUs began to fall apart and destroy themselves, as the AUs wouldn’t be able to continue if a major character was missing from their plot. What’s worse is that if the entity had been erased outside of their AU, that AU wouldn’t be glitching even though it was the missing files of the character. Voltage!Sans was unable to help with the growing problem.

### Creation

At some point in time, during the rise of the dangerous problem, the Multiverse had enough of the AUs self-destructing themselves, and created Rebound!Papyrus. Just after being spawned into the Multiverse, the Creator had imputed all of Rebound’s necessary information; their purpose, their guidelines, who they were, and their abilities. Realizing that he had a job to do, Rebound immediately began to get to work in sending all of the entities back to their homes.

However, while Rebound was performing his job, he had eventually fell into a spiral and guilt and unhappiness after returning a few, saddened entities back to their horrifying AUs. One day, when Papyrus had encountered a lost Frisk, one that was from a copy of an UnderFell AU, Rebound had succumbed to his guilt, and decided to not return the lost Frisk back to their AU; he felt that the human didn’t deserve to be in an AU that had characters that repeatedly killed them.

Papyrus felt happy for his decision of letting the human leave their AU freely. But sadly, he was caught red-handed by the Multiverse… and the Creator *really* wasn’t happy with Rebound’s actions.

As punishment, the Creator took away Rebound’s sense of guilt and sympathy, the two main components of his character that led to him going against the Multiverse’s orders. They also made sure that Rebound would prioritize his duties as a moderator first.

### Post Events

Ever since then, Rebound had actually been doing better at being a moderator as a whole. The Multiverse went back to normal again, and the number of AUs had also began to stabilize itself once more. Despite losing his sense of guilt and sympathy, he was doing the right thing.

## Profile

### Appearance

Rebound!Papyrus is a tall monster with the physiology of a skeleton; with the incorrect anatomy of one perhaps. His skull is more vertical and rectangular-like, along with often displaying a toothy grin, or happy expression at most times. He has thin, vertical blue slits as his eyes, along with having triangular blue markings under both of his eyes.

Rebound’s outfit mainly consists of wearing a long, dull blue robe that’s folded into the front, with a large blue piece of clothing acting as some sort of belt that holds the robe together; it’s tied into a bow in the front. His outfit also has large black sleeves that stop to his ulna, and are patterned with two blue lines; a full line being on the entrance of the sleeve, and a repeating line on the top of the aforementioned line. Rebound dons a long royal blue scarf with a square pattern on the ends, gray gloves with a repeating line near the opening, and a pair of matching blue boots.

Sometimes, whenever Rebound floats, his outfit tends to “float” parts of itself like a lava lamp of some sort. Rebound’s blush is often displayed in a blue shade.

### Personality

Prior to his punishment for disobeying his creator, Rebound!Papyrus was a very empathic, and sympathetic monster that was usually social around others. He was very compassionate and caring towards children, and was very kind towards all entities. Rebound hated his job more than anything, as he was forced to sometimes send unfortunate entities that resided in devastating AUs. He was commonly worried and concerned for all the entities he’s sent back, and always wants to try and help them by visiting their AUs and bringing them joy and happiness.

However, after receiving the consequences of trying to let a Frisk escape from their AU, Rebound lost his sense of sympathy, and didn’t feel any pity, nor sorrow towards others. While Rebound was still his energetic, and very compassionate self, he did not hold any regret, nor guilt to when he had to forcefully return certain entities back to their AUs. He also took his job much more seriously than ever, and prioritized it over everything else.

### Abilities

* **Blue Magic/Gravity Manipulation**: Like many of the other Papyruses (and Sanses) in his Multiverse, Rebound has the ability to manipulate the gravity around him. He’s capable of turning any SOUL blue, and is able to apply immensely strong directional forces onto the SOULs. In other words, he can manipulate the gravity of those who are affected by his magic.
	+ **Telekinesis**: As a much more advanced way of using Blue Magic, Rebound has the power to control and interact with the objects around him by manipulating the gravitational forces around them. He can make himself, or others float, along with being capable of stopping things from moving.
* **Bubble**: One of the special abilities that Rebound was programmed with, Rebound is capable of summoning bubbles of all kinds of size, in which he can use those bubbles to transport and teleport things around. The bubbles themselves are blue in color, and are practically impossible to break out of. He can alter the size and density of the said bubbles, which allows him to potentially be able to create a shield or dome of some sort.
	+ **Teleportation**: Part of Rebound’s bubble ability is that he can actually transport these bubbles, or teleport them to somewhere else. This is one of the methods he mainly uses in order to do his job, by encasing the entity in a large bubble, and teleporting them back to their AU. He can even use this ability on himself, and be able to teleport anywhere as long as he knows where the exact location is.
* **Osteokinesis/Bone Summoning**: Like all of the other Papyrus and Sans counterparts, Rebound has the ability to conjure a variety of bones, in which he can alter the size and shape of. These bones are usually summoned in groups in order to overwhelm enemies. While an individual bone may not do much damage, a whole arrange of them can certainly do the trick of defeating something in an instant.
	+ **Blue Bones**: Not to be confused with Rebound’s bones being fused with his Blue Magic, Rebound can conjure bones that come in the color of cyan. These cyan bones are capable of damaging an enemy, if they are on the move. These bones require the opponent to freeze in order for them to evade harm. This ability is often use as a trap in order to prevent any entity from escaping their return.

## Relationships

### Creator (Superior)

Despite having been created by the Creator of the Multiverse themselves, Rebound doesn’t really like his that much creator, in fact, he’s grown to despise them. Although, he won’t usually show his distaste in his creator openly. Due to being his Creator, Rebound often fears them, and feels generally uncomfortable when near them.

### CORE!Frisk (Acquaintances)

Prior to Rebound’s current self, CORE!Frisk and Rebound were actually really good friends with one another. Rebound would usually meet up with CORE in the Omega Timeline, and would occasionally vent about a lot of his problems as a moderator to them. CORE!Frisk was the one that Rebound visited the most. He was happy to see that there was someone else who cared about those who had lost their AUs, along with allowing other characters freely visit their dimension, the Omega Timeline, as well.

However, after Rebound’s lost of sympathy, the friendship between the two had eventually grew apart, leading to the two not talking each other as much. Neither of them hold resentment to the other, however, they both just have a distant friendship now.

### Voltage!Sans (Teammate)

One of Rebound’s teammates when moderating the Multiverse, Voltage and Rebound share a familial type of bond, one that would be similar to that of a regular Sans and Papyrus. While the two don’t interact often, they definitely care for each other a lot. Due to being a Papyrus, Rebound can usually be seen scolding Voltage, or trying to help him out with his job. Voltage, on the other hand, tries to help Rebound regain his sense of Sympathy back, as he likes the old version of Rebound more than his current one.

### Cubic!Gaster (Teammate)

Rebound!Papyrus and Cubic met up with one another after visiting the same AU at once. Rebound decided to try and befriend Cubic, and also was the one to suggest that the three of them to be a team. Cubic is one of the few moderators that Rebound would usually vent to, while Cubic would also be the one to try and give them advice to his problems; while also trying to listen too.
