comment
When a character or group of characters is by nature unable to tell any untruths, whether they be magical beings who are bound by that magic, speakers of a language that makes it impossible, or simply unable to grasp the concept of lying, that character Cannot Tell a Lie.
How restrictive this inability to lie is varies from character to character. For some, they are unable to deceive, following the letter of the law as well as its underlying meaning. For others, they are able to tell half-truths, omit important information, and carefully use Exact Words, allowing for False Reassurance or even Malicious Slander and acting as a sort of Technical Pacifist Consummate Liar.
Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })Children are prone to it, being too innocent to think of suppressing the truth — many truths have been blurted out by unwitting children — but this cannot be relied on; most children outgrow it (although some of them retain the tendency and grow up to be bad liars).
Some characters are very bad liars or broadcast some obvious signal when they lie. Those are not examples of this trope, although the results are effectively identical (the character can utter a lie, but can't fool anyone).
Characters that are temporarily forced to tell the truth, but otherwise can lie are under the effects of Truth Serums. Characters who are capable of lying, but choose not to Will Not Tell a Lie. If they're sworn to keep a secret, they will very quickly discover Keeping Secrets Sucks.
It should be noted that this trope is for characters who Cannot Tell A Lie as a character trait, which means that at all times they are incapable of lying. If the character is under the effect of a Truth Serum, it doesn't count. However, if said Truth Serum had a permanent effect, especially if it were applied before the main narrative, then that example is valid. Bad writers will use From a Certain Point of View to get away with "misunderstandings."
Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })Trope Namer is George Washington from his famous story about a cherry tree, who oddly is a better example of Will Not Tell a Lie. Ironically this is clearly a lie as said by Cracked.
See also Knights and Knaves, Language of Truth. Not to be confused with Bad Liar.
Contrast Compulsive Liar.

Puella Magi Madoka Magica: Kyubey cannot technically lie, as he comes from a purely rational alien species. This does not, however, prevent him from invoking his Exact Words and You Didn't Ask.
He also did not deem it necessary to tell them everything, becoming genuinely confused when all the girls got angry at him for "hiding the truth". Kyubey did intently hide some information to keep things in his favor though...

Humans can access magic in Pact by making deals with supernatural creatures to use their powers. A major consequence of this is that magic users and supernatural creatures aren't supposed to lie, because this means that the humans and Others they have agreements with can't trust the liar's word and they lose a hefty amount of their power as a result. Naturally, this fails to stop anyone from telling half-truths or using Exact Words.

An interesting case with X-23. Laura is very well-known for her Brutal Honesty and being Innocently Insensitive. Because she was created as a Living Weapon covert operative and assassin, she certainly has the capability to lie in order to maintain her cover on missions, but outside of this context she consistently shows an inability to do so. It's a major bit of Character Development in her solo series when she lies to the child of one of her victims to spare him the pain of revisiting the loss of his parents.

Vashiel from Misfile has had his ability to lie removed entirely, as part of a punishment for past transgressions (it's implied he got a little too into smiting the wicked). His resulting unfortunate honesty when asked "Does This Make Me Look Fat?" led to what he described as "the most painful day ever". He later says it's not absolute: if it were a situation of universal security (specifically, a "clear and present danger" to the filing system), he would be able to lie in order to uphold it. But of course, such a situation is incredibly rare. His vows are released during the climax; in the epilogue he admits to missing be incapable of self-deception.
For one that actually happened in the comic:

In Unavowed, this applies to the Jinn race as a whole. They are compelled to always speak the truth, and even just the attempt to lie causes them unbearable physical pain, something which also serves to make them great Living Lie Detectors, as they also feel very uncomfortable when they sense that others in their vicinity are not speaking the truth. That said, Jinns can still get away with acts of trickery and subterfuge by using Exact Words, which means that they have a bit of a bad reputation in the supernatural community despite their inherent honesty.

Drogyn on Angel could not tell a lie. Therefore, he always got upset when people asked him questions. Joss Whedon said that he had Drogyn not be able to lie so that when he said Fred cannot be brought back, the characters would have to believe him. This comes in useful for Angel's later Batman Gambit where he has his team believe all sorts of lies he has planted like his involvement in Fred's death. Drogyn goes to the characters with information of Angel's betrayal, and they must believe him.

The main character of The Twilight Child is this mixed with Will Not Tell a Lie. She's near-incapable of lying in any form, and should she actually attempt it she'll either immediately backspace or her vocal cords just shut down on her. It also thwarts her Stepford Smiler tendencies as well.

The faeries in The Folk of the Air are unable to lie, although they will do their best to bend or otherwise talk around the truth. That Jude, as a human, is capable of lying both makes her a valuable asset in any mission that requires deceit.

Inverted with the Pooka from Changeling: The Dreaming; their Frailty is that they can never tell the whole truth. Some players tend to find the perfect mixture of truth and lies, but more than a few tend to rely on, "There is not a large army of chimera charging down Main Street!"
Werewolf: The Forsaken gives us the Fire-Touched tribe of werewolves. They follow Rabid Wolf, whose Ban is that he may not let a false statement lie. Not only does this bar the Fire-Touched from lying, they actually have to challenge any statement they hear that they know is a lie, no matter the consequences.

Belldandy and other Goddesses First Class from Ah! My Goddess are absolutely incapable of telling lies. They're still able to simply say nothing when it's necessary to conceal information, but of course this can be quite revealing in its own right. After passing the Goddess First Class test, Urd declines the promotion (which would have allowed her full access to her immense power, far greater than even Belldandy's) and remains Second Class because she deems the ability to lie more useful than brute strength in protecting her family.

Loki: Agent of Asgard hits Loki of all people with this. After the inversion is undone they just can't take falsehoods any more, not even benign ones or jokes. They're not literally unable to tell them but all come out incredibly weak and make them feel so bad about them that they correct themself immediately. They theorize that this is either an after effect of the inversion, or being in the middle of the truth wave, or maybe they're just sick and tired of untruths or some combination of these. This prompts them to be suicidally honest with Verity and Thor.

Falcon shapeshifters in Amelia Atwater-Rhodes's Kiesha'ra series are able to detect blatant lies very easily through their magic, and so most falcons never blatantly lie to avoid trouble. Falcons, however, are also well-versed in the arts of misleading and half-truths, and being misled is no excuse for wrongdoing.

The N'Tuitif tribe in The Last Hero are a society no imagination whatsoever; every statement they make is absolute truth, because they can't conceive of anything that's even Metaphorically True, let alone blatantly false. This even extends to things when there seems to be no logical way they could know the truth - their Just So Stories are unadorned descriptions of evolutionary processes, possibly making them the only people on the Disc apart from Ponder Stibbons and the God of Evolution who really believe in it.

In Brother on Brother, Daughter on Mother, Rachel Connor is just a lousy liar. She tries to cover the fact that she's an illegal genetic augment after her Healing Factor blocks Borg assimilation, but Alicia Gantumur doesn't buy it, saying whatever the real explanation is, she won't push it "as long as the Captain knows." Later, Eleya's time-travelling future daughter comments that she was sent back in time instead of Connor, her superior, because Connor still hasn't learned to lie convincingly several decades on.

Discworld:
In Equal Rites, there is a short mention of a tribe of people who don't lie, except for their leader/face to the world, who they, as a testament to their honesty, call the Tribe Liar, which other people find slightly uncomfortable to deal with (they'd much prefer the Zoon use terms like "diplomat" or "public relations officer", as they feel they're being mocked). Esk meets a Liar who is a kindhearted merchant.
William de Worde from The Truth, although physically capable of speaking an untruth, was so heavily-conditioned not to lie by his tyrannical father that even harmless fibs for politeness's sake leave William's internal monologue nervously reassuring him that it's okay. Half-truths are another story.
Mr Thunderbolt, the troll lawyer in Raising Steam is "diamond through and through", and would crack if he told a lie. Presumably the same thing goes for his uncle, Mr Shine.

In Jay's Journey, the character of Puff (and other dragons like him) can't lie, but he can definitely omit information. When asked by a villain if he's seen Jay, he manages to twist the conversation into making it seem as though he has no idea who Jay is, all without lying. Specifically, he points out that he's traveling with a complete moron, which is true, while failing to point out that he's traveling with about a dozen other humans.

The Twilight Zone (1959):
In "The Whole Truth", after buying the Model A, Harvey Hunnicut finds out to his horror that he can't tell a lie. Since he's a used car dealer who specializes in selling junk cars, his business is ruined. He eventually sells it to Nikita Khrushchev.
In "Hocus-Pocus and Frisby", the aliens mistake Somerset Frisby's tall tales about his own past for an incredible variety of impressive accomplishments because they have no idea what lying is.

On My Name Is Earl, Randy can't tell a lie. Not until he's had exactly four beers, anyway. In one episode that involved the gang infiltrating the Winky-Dinky Dog HQ in hopes of stealing enough to avenge the (second) burning of Pop's Hot Dog Cart, Randy is seen presenting at a board meeting (on his first day, no less!) with cans of beer at his feet. On multiple other occasions, Earl is also shown to be a Bad Liar, though not consistently.

The faeries from Holly Black's Modern Faerie Tales. Instead they just "Bend the truth until it snaps under its own weight." i.e, they can't lie per se, but are very, very fond of leaving out important information or "little details" that could be willfully damaging to the hearer. Oh, and the clever use of puns employed in the last book.

In Saga of Recluce black mages (mages who use order magic) cannot tell lies, as lying is a chaotic act. Trying to lie will get them a negative reaction depending up how powerful they are: a starting trainee order mage might just feel uncomfortable, a fully fledged mage of ordinary power would get stomach cramps, and a archmage level order mage would get a splitting headache. And they can't use anything like Metaphorically True, Exact Words or False Reassurance to get around it, because it's the intent to deceive which causes the negative reaction.

Dungeons & Dragons
The "Zone of Truth" spell prevents anyone in the target area from lying while the spell lasts, but it does not compel people to answer questions.
Forgotten Realms NPC Malik el Sami yn Nasser suffers from truth-spell cast by goddess of magic personally, so it looks like he's not going to recover any time soon. By the way, he was given a title "Seraph of Lies" soon after that incident.
In some versions of the game, paladins (and occasionally other characters) cannot tell a lie. They aren't literally forced to tell the truth, but risk losing their powers if they do so.

In Equal Rites, there is a short mention of a tribe of people who don't lie, except for their leader/face to the world, who they, as a testament to their honesty, call the Tribe Liar, which other people find slightly uncomfortable to deal with (they'd much prefer the Zoon use terms like "diplomat" or "public relations officer", as they feel they're being mocked). Esk meets a Liar who is a kindhearted merchant.

343 Guilty Spark from Halo might fall into this trope, depending on how you think he was programmed and to what degree his rampancy has proceeded. Either way, nothing he ever says is untrue. He does withhold inconvenient facts if nobody asks about them, but it's more likely that it just doesn't occur to him to explain; he simply takes it for granted that anybody attempting to activate Halo would know what they were doing.

Any augur in Fushigi Yuugi: Genbu Kaiden. Augurs must speak the truth, as they will lose their prophetic powers if they lie. Whether this actively means they are forbidden from lying or are incapable of lying is not explored. Seems to be the former, though, as there are two instances in the story where an augur has lied.

Gunnerkrigg Court: In Chapter 12, robots cannot lie. That is how the robot can tell Antimony is a robot: she says so.
And this is despite the fact that robots are actually seen lying in the comic, though their lies are almost always ridiculously transparent.
Reynardine cannot lie when talking with Antimony, who, in a Moment of Weakness, exploits this to force him to confront an Awful Truth she has angrily revealed to him. He turns the tables on her with another Awful Truth in response.

The Thermians from Galaxy Quest have no concept of "untruth" in their culture... or at least they did until they met Sarris, who was only too happy to teach them about the concept of lying and deception the hard way, and wiped out their entire species save for the small group we see in the movie. They now know that such a concept exists, but they are terrible at recognizing it, aren't experienced enough to do it themselves, and can't even begin to imagine that some species can actually derive entertainment and pleasure from knowingly being told lies (a.k.a. fictional stories).

The Invention of Lying takes place in a world where no one can lie, except for Ricky Gervais's character. Despite no one being able to lie, it's actually not a very nice place - there is no religion, no fiction, and because people are brutally honest (or at least incapable of blurting out inconvenient truths) everyone is cruel, crass or prone to over-sharing.

In Alien in a Small Town, compulsive honesty is the alien Jan's main cultural hat. They are descended from communally-living prey animals, and had to cooperate constantly to survive. This gives them a reputation for rudeness, though with practice they can at least learn the human concept of tact. They can keep secrets, though, as long as they can avoid having to lie outright in order to keep them.

Much of Death Note seems to rely on the idea that one of the rules for the death gods forbids them from lying to the people that hold their books. They are not, however, required to tell the user everything. Ryuk makes a living out of leaving out that last bit of information.

The Aes Sedai from The Wheel of Time. They cannot speak a lie, even when that lie would save millions of lives. This was a magically-created prohibition to make people trust them. Unfortunately, because most Aes Sedai have become masters of Jedi Truth, Exact Words, and lies of omission, they have arguably earned more of a reputation for deception than they might have otherwise.
This also leads to a Wham Line later in the series, when an Aes Sedai blatantly lies.

Subverted in Kill Six Billion Demons with angels. It's an in-universe misconception that they can't lie, as innately lawful entities, but White Chain does so anyway at the cost of it damaging the Containment Clothing that lets her manifest in the physical world. Must be a pretty strong misconception, since people overlook the fact that the lie literally cracks her facade.

Wonder Woman is this Depending on the Writer. This wasn't the case originally when she had a secret identity, but after DC's first reboot in the 80s, the secret identity was discarded and she was depicted as being so honest she gained the sobriquet, Spirit of Truth. The reason she cannot lie also varies, with some writers attributing this to the Lasso of Truth preventing her from lying and others having her as too sweet to lie.

An episode of X Minus One featured a reptilian "lawyer" whose race is incapable of lying (although they don't have to say the entire truth either). This is put to the test when a Jerkass character tries to get under another character's skin by mocking his home planet, who the latter keeps saying is the most beautiful place in the galaxy. The Jerkass gets the reptilian to admit the other character's planet has been ravaged by an asteroid shower and is hardly the paradise he thought it was, but to his shock the reptilian wholeheartedly agrees that the planet is the best place there is because the planet is named after the reptilian's word for "home".

William de Worde from The Truth, although physically capable of speaking an untruth, was so heavily-conditioned not to lie by his tyrannical father that even harmless fibs for politeness's sake leave William's internal monologue nervously reassuring him that it's okay.

El Goonish Shive:
Abraham the wizard is sworn to an Oath of Truth. Interestingly, he deliberately avoids people so he won't have to reveal information he doesn't want to.
Another world is mentioned where Ancients (known as Immortals in the main world) are incapable of lying without bringing the wrath of their entire race upon themself. Immortals in the main world are under no such restriction, meaning that Tara the griffin (who is from this other world) is easily manipulated by an unscrupulous immortal in the main world because she falsely believes that he cannot be lying to her.

Doctor Who:
In series 6, it's revealed that the Silence want to kill the Doctor because sometime in the future, "on fields of Trenzalore, at the fall of the Eleventh, when no living creature may speak falsely or fail to give answer, a question will be asked. A question that must never, ever be answered." The question? Doctor who?
"The Time of the Doctor" reveals a truth field is the reason no one can speak falsely. The Doctor uses it to his advantage when the Cybermen attempt to build one of them out of wood to get through the Papal Mainframe's forcefield. The Doctor manages to convince it that his sonic screwdriver reversed the polarity on its Hand Cannon to shoot out the back. When the Cyberman doubts, the Doctor points out that the truth field would not allow him to lie. The Cyberman considers that and flips the weapons around... which fires out the front and blows a big hole in the Cyberman. (He told the truth about what he'd set the screwdriver to do — he just didn't mention that it doesn't work on wood.)

Child of the Storm has Doctor Strange as being caught somewhere between this and Will Not Tell a Lie - that is to say, it's not entirely clear which applies, and he's not exactly minded to say. The evidence, such as his reaction when he's accused of lying (while admittedly on the edge of sanity at the time, he snaps and informs the person who accused him that if they weren't a child/teenager and under a lot of strain themselves, he would have killed them on the spot) suggests that it's a combination of the two: he started out able to lie, decided that he Will Not Tell a Lie, and at some point swore an oath so that he's unable to lie. Of course, as is frequently noted, this is by no means the same as being honest, and his habit of telling the literal - and often selective - truth is part of what makes him such a dangerous and effective manipulator.

In Uglies, Frizz from Extras has a surgery in order to force himself to only tell the truth. He says he did this because he realized he was lying all the time and needed to get better. Apparently it sparked a whole clique.
It causes problems later, though. Unlike many examples, he can't talk around the truth, nor can he stop himself from blurting out the truth if he knows that someone else has lied. When he and his friends are trying to hide who they really are from the Inhumans, he manages not to blurt out their true identities and the fact that they're here to take the Inhumans down... for about two minutes.

In Patricia Briggs's Mercy Thompson series, the fae cannot speak an untruth. Which does not mean that they are honest; they often use weasel words such as "I have heard" to deceive without lying. Also, werewolves can smell lies (through things like perspiration and heart rate), and as the protagonist was Raised by Wolves she has great trouble lying even to mundanes, preferring instead to use Exact Words. In one instance, when John Smith enters the room, another character says "See, I told you Bob Green would come!" implying that John Smith is Bob Green without actually saying it outright.
Asil uses the same means of Loophole Abuse in Cry Wolf, when he's compelled to tell the truth by the villain's magic but needs to conceal Bran's identity ("I told you Bran would send Tag...").

Oni from Touhou are said to be incapable of lying, and may be able to instinctively detect when they are being lied to.
One of Reimu's Informed Abilities is that she does not lie and will most likely respond to any question honestly, no matter how rude she is in the process. This is another trait that puts her in contrast with her best friend Marisa, who will often tell utterly pointless lies for the sheer sake of it.
This trope is also inverted with Sagume Kishin. You think Cassandra, a little further up this page, has it bad? As the goddess of the contrarian Amanojaku species, Sagume is unable to talk about any event without the universe itself opposing her in petty attempts to make her look like a Consummate Liar.

An optional Disadvantage in GURPS is "Cannot Lie": any character with this trait is unable to lie, and if they try, they will either "blurt out the truth or stumble so much that the lie is obvious." It does not prevent them from stealing or other unlawful acts (honesty is a separate disadvantage).

In the Lensman series, one of the first aspects demonstrated of using the Lens is that one cannot telepathically lie with it. This was mostly seen in First Lensman, when the Lens is first introduced to Civilization and the Galactic Patrol used that aspect as a selling point for prospective entrants; insist on a Lensman using telepathy and you'll always get the truth from them, even if it becomes Brutal Honesty at times. This becomes one of several aspects (alongside being of exceptional mental character and incapable of being imitated) that gains the Lensmen complete trust throughout Civilization: setting the stage for the remaining books.

Empowered: Telepaths can't lie through telepathy, or even hide the truth. Whenever they say something even slightly untrue, the truth shows up in parenthesis, representing another band of communication underlaying the first.

In a Paperinik New Adventures short they have fun with this story. It ends up with a time traveler coming back in time to prevent little George from chopping down the tree (so that his son's teacher won't have an example to quote when she'd say truth is to be rewarded), only to find out that he landed on the tree and little George decided it was easier to 'confess' that he, George, chopped it down rather than trying to explain the truth.

In the Harukanaru Toki no Naka de - Hachiyou Shou anime, after Ran loses her memories, the main characters decide that it will be better if she doesn't remember anything about her connections with the Oni Clan. Yasuaki, for certain reasons, fails to understand why they don't tell her everything, to the point of asking directly why they are lying. When he eventually does tell her the truth in order to figure out how the Oni Clan's curse works, all sorts of troubles proceed to happen.
The manga explores this even further. Yasuaki, who insists that he has no heart or emotions, wonders at one point why people tell lies, implying that, indeed, he doesn't understand the concept of lying (yet). When Kotengu gets killed, however, Yasuaki ends up lying to Akane that he is still alive just to make her stop crying. This event confuses him a lot, as he apparently believes that, not being human, he wasn't supposed to be able to lie.

Star Trek: Voyager: Seven of Nine is initially incapable of lying for a while after being separated from the Borg. Justified as it's pretty much impossible to hide the truth while part of a Hive Mind.

Her full novel The Raven Tower runs on the same rule: Gods can speak in ambigious terms, lie by omission, or couch their language in "here is a story I once heard", but speaking outright falsehoods either drains or kills them depending on the magnitude of the lie.

The Pieces Lie Where They Fell: Wind Breaker has trouble lying even to himself, as per his Element (though it doesn't keep him from lying when he absolutely has to), which got him into a lot of trouble as a kid. He was given alcohol to overcome it when he was nine, resulting in a lot of problems for him later in life. He also has no poker face as a result.

Meursault in The Stranger. It does not occur to him to lie. Interestingly, he's not terribly concerned about other people telling the truth; he never corrects their assumptions about him.

The newer generation of replicants in Blade Runner 2049 are implied to always tell the truth due to their obedience programming. This ultimately proves untrue, as we see K tell Lieutenant Joshi that he killed the replicant child; Luv makes it explicit right before she murders the lieutenant.

Happy Heroes: Inverted and invoked by Big and Little M. in Season 2 episode 10. The two use a flying saucer that zaps people into being unable to tell the truth; the affected people gain ten pounds for every truth they do tell.

In the Haruhi Suzumiya novels, Kyon noted on more than one occasion that Yuki wouldn't lie. Who knows if this is Will Not Tell a Lie or Cannot Tell A Lie, but he is convinced that it is this trope.
In a technical sense, Nagato was lying to ‘’Haruhi’’; she was lying to Kyon so she wouldn’t know the truth. When Haruhi’s out of the picture, Nagato comes clean to Kyon.

In Cuckoo Bird, faeries like Izuku cannot tell lies because they suffer an excruciating slashing and burning sensation in their throat whenever they do. Because of this, they specialize in misleading and tricking others with Metaphorically True statements to get around this.
