A Dust Story: Broken Faith

## Broken!Faith Papyrus

"The difference between you and I, Fallen, is that I have a promise to keep. And I'm a skeleton of his word." - Papyrus, speaking to "The Fallen" in the Judgement Hall, before their fight.

## Backstory

#### A Brother's Will

Genocide… This is a word, which is defined as “mindless slaughter”. The Fallen… The Fallen was once a Human child. But, upon falling into the underground, they soon fell victim to their own sadistic temptations, therefore earning them the title of ***"The Fallen"***. They had done so many runs… So much mindless slaughtering that the title used to describe this… creature, has lost it’s grip on which to describe the reality that is their sadistic nature. Sans the skeleton, the poor soul cursed with the knowledge of knowing all the resets, and the slaughtering, finally had enough. He asked Gaster for the power to overcome The Fallen. Gaster could only give Sans a boost with a vial of pure HATE, but unfortunately… it would not be enough. Sans encountered Papyrus, and told him everything. “Hey, Paps.” Papyrus looked at sans in disapproval… still blissful to what had happened. “SANS! Where were you? You had me worried! I can’t seem to find anybody. I keep searching but…” Papyrus looked at sans in shock, seeing the piles, upon piles, of dust on his clothes. There was so much dust that it made Papyrus cover his mouth with his glove, reflexively out of disgust… But, Papyrus knew there had to be a reason. “S-sans? W-why are you covered in dust?” Sans was frowning. “Listen, papyrus… There’s something I need to tell you. A Lot of what I am about to say may surprise you, but I need you to stay calm.” Papyrus stuttered, “W-whatever you need sans. I’m here.” Sans was still serious. “You know I’m never serious, Paps. But there’s this human, you see… Well, no. They aren’t even human. They’ve fallen past the point of humanity. Humans at least have standards… but this kid is something else. You're probably not gonna believe what I’m about to say next, but I assure you every word of it is true. This kid has the power to reset. They have the power to go back in time, and do things that no one will remember… but I remember… I don’t know how exactly, but I’m immune to their manipulation, and so I can remember it all. This… Fallen child, if it even is a child, had slaughtered the entire underground so many countless times. I lost count at the 3445th reset, and that was a while ago… At first they slaughtered the underground, quickly and mercifully. But eventually they got bored of it. Eventually they decided to start mutilating everyone… You, Undyne, and countless others had been ripped apart slowly by that thing. Eventually I had to stop it so I went to slaughter everyone myself to get stronger… I had to. I had to stop them. I killed everyone thinking that I could stop that beast… but every time they bested me. I tried more times than I could count, papyrus. I just want this hell to end.” Sans… Sans started crying, as he fell to the ground on his knees and hands. Papyrus looked at Sans, in more shock than before. But, still believing his brother, He crouched down, and hugged sans. “It’s not your fault, Sans. You only tried to protect us.” Sans continued his sobbing, and Papyrus continued to try to comfort him. Soon enough, The Fallen came into Snowdin town, smiling. Thier skin was paler then the snow itself, the eyes being like two gates to the abyss. In the centers holding glowing red pupils. The bags around their eyes were unbelievably unquantifiable. Thier smile was unnaturally wide. They held a knife coated in blood and dust. They had dust on their clothes, so much in fact it was nearly impossible to tell what the clothes looked like. Their left eye twitched, as they walked closer to sans and papyrus. Before opening thier mouth, revealing a tounge that looked very very dry, licking their lips. They closed their mouth, smirking arrogantly. They swiftly lunged towards Papyrus, knife pointing towards him. Papyrus looked towards this creature, tears in his eyes. Sans stood idly. At the exact moment the fallen had nearly struck Papyrus down, Sans got up in front of papyrus, blocking the attack, and papyrus moved out of the way fast enough to dodge the piecing slash. Sans, tears still in his eyes, turned to look at papyrus. “P…Papyrus? P-promise me somethin, will ya?” Papyrus inched closer to Sans, as The Fallen just continued smiling. “What is it S-sans?” Sans smiled. “ Promise me that You’ll never change, okay? Keep being strong, and never give up.” “I promise sans. You will be safe we just need to-” Sans had already been halfway into dust, which caused Papyrus’s pause. (To be continued)

## Profile

#### Personality

Papyrus still cares. It's just his focus on defeating The Fallen makes him reckless. But he still refrains from hurting anybody.

## Powers and Abilities

#### ATOMOC

See William (Note that Papyrus is not as powerful as William, and I only use this scale to establish that Broken!Faith Papyrus is more powerful then The Murderer)

#### Soul changing

###### Blue soul

This ability let's the user intensify the opponent's gravity immensely, as well as switching their gravity around.

###### Orange soul

This ability makes the opponent's soul always move, making blue bones effectively white bones.

###### Green Soul

This puts you in a mode where you have to block projectiles.

## Attacks

#### Orange Sword

He slashes his opponent in a random order (of left and right) about 9 times. Each swing does around 110000000000000 damage, if you don't move around, that is. It being an orange attack.

#### Corridor Trap

He throws a corridor of white bones so tight together, one-hit runners may go mad trying to perfect dodging it. if that wasn't enough, in the fast moving, tight corridor, blue Gaster Blasters are thrown at the right and left of the corridor, vertically. There is also orange Gaster Blasters thrown horizontally when the blue Gaster Blasters come in. The Gaster Blasters are also large enough, where even teleporting a short distance wouldn't let you dodge it. Same as the bone corridor.

#### Gaster Blaster Trap

He summons a circle of orange Gaster Blasters, with no space in-between them. There are also blue bones coming from the walls, which also are so tightly compact, that you cannot move... barely. so with what little, frame perfect space you have to move to avoid damage from the orange Gaster Blasters, you have to try not to get hit by the blue bones.

#### Bone Parkour

There come moving columns, which move up and down, of white bones. A ceiling and floor of white bone which also move along with the columns, and one platform constantly moving left to right. On the sides, there are blue bones on the walls. There also will be blue Gaster Blasters that come in periodically. Coming in on horizontally, and on the sides next to the bone walls vertically.

#### Slash barrage

There will be a barrage of slashes that track the opponent. And aside from these small, but fast slashes, there are big, big slashes coming in horizontally. then in the middle vertically, then diagonally on each side. Then after that, a barrage of smaller, but still big slashes go from left to right/right to left vertically depending on which side you are on.

## Relationships

#### The Murderer

His brother who sacrificed everything to try to keep him safe, he still mourns his loss, from time to time.

#### Undyne

They used to be good friends as in the original Undertale, before The Awakening.

#### The Fallen

The one who ruined everything. He hates them more then anything and seeks to end their sadist influence on existance.
