"Temple. Ton. Barring. Ster."
— Private Templeton Barringster VII

Templeton Barringster VII (/tɛmpəltən bæɹɪŋstɚ/) is a Noble Born Elf Cabalist that appeared in the Porc Hunters Campaign. He is a member of Theta Squad and under the command of Captain Ca-Rell and fights along side Elmar and Denada.

Characteristics

Appearance

Templeton is a male elf with fair skin, blonde hair, and grey eyes. Templeton wore a maroon bowler hat, an elegant maroon cloak with golden lining and the Theta symbol (Ө)) on the right arm. Under his cloak, he wore a pink shirt with red accents and a golden jewel, a brown belt with a pouch for his Wellforn Ruby, brown pants and red knee high boots.

Personality

Templeton is very pompous and loves to correct others when they mess up his name. Although he follows Captain Ca-Rell's orders, he believes himself to know better than her what to do, often interpreting the commands in his own way. He will also take much care to not sully his clothing while fighting, since that will not do for a man his standing, endangering the rest of the group through his inaction. Despite all of this he truly attempts to be helpful to the group, but his contributions usually go unnoticed.

Over the course of the adventure he mostly drifts away from the group. DeNada's change of heart and Templeton's rocky relationship with his captain, who fails to see his contributions to the team, cause him to slowly become more and more frustrating with his team mates and at the end, he even starts to resent them.

He cares much for his family, warning his brother not to follow in his footsteps due to his young age and even convincing his captain to postpone their mission of Porc hunting to go search for Phineas when he went missing. Unfortunately for Phineas, when it was revealed at the end that he might be more talented than Templeton, earning himself a place on the team even at his young age, this brotherly love mostly changed into jealously.

Relationships

Ca-Rell

At the beginning, Templeton and Ca-Rell shared a friendly relationship. This all changed however, since nobody on the team noticed his attempts to help and Ca-Rell starts to view him as a freeloader, considering him the least useful member of the team. This comes as a huge blow to his ego, which only got worse when he was the only person on the team not to get a promotion after the Whisper Snake fight. This causes a downwards spiral with him starting to resent his leader, which only got worse near the end when he was given no credit for fighting in the Porbo fight and his brother was allowed to join the team at a very young age. During the Campaign he was the only Theta Squad member never to be promoted by her.

Elmar

Templaton and Elmar have a neutral relationship. Neither of them would call each-other friends however, mostly viewing themselves as co-workers.

DeNada

Templeton views himself as better than DeNada and often behaves elitist towards him. Unfortunately, he makes no attempts to better their relationship, causing them to end the mission disliking each other.

Phineas Barringster

Templeton is very protective of his brother, warning him not to follow him on his mission and not to aim to become a Cabalist like him at such a young age. When his brother went missing he immediately went to his captain and managed to convince her to postpone their mission to launch a rescue for Phineas. During the search he is very worried about his brothers whereabouts. When they finally find him in jail, he participates in the Porbo fight to free his brother. Unbeknown to him, Phineas had already managed to free himself, killing 4 guards on the way out and 2 Skelephelk. When finally reunited with his brother, all of his brotherly love turn to jealousy and eventually hate when his younger brother has managed to one-up him, proven himself the better Cabalist and being allowed to join the Theta Squad at a very young age.

Air Sprites

Templeton is very attached to his Air Sprites, giving each one an individual name, such as Anthony, Amy[1] and Xavier[2]. He even gives them families, for example Anthony and Amy are twins. He does still view them as his soldiers however, and while mourning their death does not want to hurt himself to save them.

Xavius

Xavius is Templeton's Cousin. It is unknown what their relationship is like, however Xavius referred to him as a "tight ass" in the Sun Swords while talking to Phineas, which may imply they do not get along well.
