Gaster Keyboard: Type in Gaster's Wingdings
Tap the keys to type like W.D. Gaster. Every key writes its Wingdings symbol, the English reading appears underneath so you never lose track, and one click copies the whole message. Hit Shift for the uppercase symbols — Gaster's lines are usually written in caps.
How to Use the Gaster Keyboard
- Turn on Shift if you want Gaster-style capitals. In Wingdings, "A" and "a" are different symbols (✌ and ♋), so the case you pick changes what people decode.
- Tap your message key by key. Use Space between words and the bottom row for punctuation. The "Reads as" line shows the English, which makes typos easy to spot.
- Press Copy and paste the symbols wherever you like. They are ordinary Unicode characters, so they don't need the Wingdings font installed on the other end.
Writing something long? It is faster to type normal English into the Gaster translator and let it convert the whole thing at once. The keyboard is best for short messages, names and learning which key makes which symbol.
Typing Gaster Text on Discord
Discord is where most Gaster messages end up — roleplay servers, Undertale and Deltarune theory channels, and server puzzles. Paste the copied symbols straight into the message box and they post as text. A few habits make them work better:
- Keep symbols plain. Discord turns some characters, such as hands and smileys, into colorful emoji. Put the message inside single backticks (`like this`) and Discord shows it as plain monospaced text.
- Hide the answer. Post the Wingdings, then put the English inside a spoiler (||like this||) so others can try to decode it first.
- Use it in your profile. Nicknames, bios and custom statuses accept the same symbols — a short Gaster word fits well. Some servers limit special characters in nicknames, so check the rules.
Using Gaster Text on Tumblr
Tumblr's Undertale fandom has used Wingdings for years — in fan comics, ask-blog replies and theory posts. Copied symbols paste into the post editor, captions and replies like any other text. Because the symbols are Unicode rather than a font, they still show up on the mobile app and for followers who don't have Wingdings installed.
A common format is to post the Gaster text first and put the translation below a "Keep reading" break, so the decode is a reward for clicking through. If you tag the post, use readable tags such as #gaster or #undertale — tags written in Wingdings won't match what people search for.

Is There a Real Gaster Keyboard?
There is no physical Gaster keyboard and no special layout to install. Wingdings works by drawing ordinary letters as pictures, so any keyboard can "type Gaster" as long as the text is shown in the Wingdings font. On a Windows PC with Microsoft Office, you can type in Word and switch the font to Wingdings — our guide on how to type in Wingdings walks through it.
The catch is that font-based Wingdings only looks right on that one computer. Copy it into Discord or a phone and it turns back into normal letters, because the other device isn't using the Wingdings font. That is why this keyboard outputs Unicode symbols instead: what you copy is the picture itself, so it looks the same everywhere.
This page is a fan tool. Undertale and W.D. Gaster belong to Toby Fox; the keyboard uses standard Unicode characters and its own colors, not game art.
Frequently Asked Questions
▸What is a Gaster keyboard?
A Gaster keyboard is a keyboard whose keys type Wingdings symbols instead of letters — the "language" W.D. Gaster speaks in Undertale. The one on this page runs in your browser: tap a key, get its Wingdings symbol, then copy the result as normal Unicode text you can paste anywhere.
▸Is the Gaster keyboard the same as a Wingdings keyboard?
Yes. Gaster's text uses standard Wingdings (version 1), so the Gaster keyboard defaults to that font. You can switch it to Wingdings 2, Wingdings 3 or Webdings if you want different symbols, but only Wingdings 1 matches how Gaster's lines look to fans.
▸Can I type Gaster's language on my phone?
Yes. Phones don't ship the Wingdings font, but this keyboard outputs Unicode symbols that every modern phone can display. Open this page in your mobile browser, tap out your message, press Copy and paste it into Discord, Tumblr, Instagram or a text message.
▸Why do some Gaster symbols show up as colorful emoji?
Some Wingdings symbols, like the hands and faces, also exist as emoji. Apps that force emoji style will draw them in color. The keyboard adds a text-style marker to every symbol to ask for the black-and-white look, but a few apps ignore it; in Discord, wrapping the text in backticks keeps it plain.
▸How do I read Gaster text someone sent me?
Paste it into the Gaster translator and set the direction to "Wingdings → English". It decodes symbols from this keyboard, from other Wingdings sites and from text copied out of the real Wingdings font.
