'''Atheist''' (エイシイスト), known in English as '''Papyrak''', is a longhorn beetle-type [[Medarot]] that first appeared in [[Medarot 2]]. Intended as a counterpart to [[Rokusho]].

== Description ==

In terms of abilities and design, Atheist is very similar to [[Rokusho]]. It has a [[Sword|sword]] on its right arm and a [[Hammer|hammer]] on its left, is bipedal, and focuses on close-range combat. Unlike Rokusho, Atheist is pale greenish-brown in color, and has two tall backwards-curving antennae on its head. There are also two mandible-like pieces hanging from its cheeks, similar to [[Smilodonad]].

Atheist's name is a pun stemming from the japanese word for longhorn beetles, kamikirimushi (カミキリムシ). While this literally means "hair-cutting bug" (髪切り虫), it can also be read as "god-cutting bug" (神切り虫), leading to the name "Atheist". Its english name origin is unknown, but may be based on [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Papyrus papyrus].

The names of its head and leg parts are based on Rokusho's (Antenna and Tatacker). Tatakkiri comes from "Tatakikiru" (叩き切る, to hack down), and Mettakiller comes from "Mettakiri" (滅多切り, cut to pierces) and "killer". In the english version of [[Medarot 2 Core]], its parts were known as Feeler, Metakiller, Thudarm, and Tatakick. 

== In the games ==

Atheist's parts have high attack power and accuracy, but very low armor. In Medarot 2 and R, its head part has the [[Scan]] action like Rokusho, but this was changed to [[Reinforce]] in Medarot 2 Core. 

=== In Medarot 2 ===

Like its partner [[Ambiguous]], Atheist's parts are normally unobtainable. The player must use [[password]]s for the parts or trade them over from the [[Medarot 2 Parts Collection|Parts Collection]] game. The passwords were officially listed in the February 2000 issue of [[Comic Bom Bom]].
