Biography[]
Resurrection[]
Temper first appears on his final mission, which goes horrifically wrong. After Azzedine Smoke corrupts him, he tells them everything he knows and is thrown in a prison cell in Coldheart Prison until Omen Darkly gets him out. Temper joins Omen, Never, and Valkyrie Cain on the Skulduggery Pleasant rescue mission and discovers that Lethe is really Savant Vega.
Bedlam[]
Temper is shown to be caught up in a major conspiracy, and is taken prisoner by Officer Lush and Rattan. He is captured, but kills the officers using his Gist. He is then taken to be Activated by Damocles Creed, in an attempt to turn him into the Child of the Faceless Ones, whilst Solace and Caisson watch. However, he is interrupted by the assassination of Caisson by Kierre of the Unveiled
Seasons of War[]
Following the death of German Grand Madge, Stermun Drang, Temper is assigned by fellow city guard officer, Commander Hoc, to investigate the case regarding the Grand Mage's murder. Because the murder weapon was identidied to be a unique spear, this led Temper to believe that the assin was a known one- Kierre of the Unveiled (serafina's sister)- so he wanted to find, obtain and question her. Consequently, he whent to Serafina Dey's mansion in search of her, welcomed warmly by Serafina as he had left his brother Damocles Creed's Church of the Faceless, despite refusing the offer to join the legion of judgement. Rune and Strosivadian are rude and secretive towards him as they want to protect their little sister in their eyes. After the encounter, he goes back to Commander Hoc to tell him that the investigation was still ongoing to which Hoc is frustrated about and he kicks Temper off of the case. (The Religious Freedom act (put in place by Grand Mage Sorrows) is the reason why Temper could not charge or obtain Kierre therefore leaving the case ongoing).
Straight afterwards, Temper goes back to his house and is met by a giggling Kierre who converses with temper. She admits to killing Caisson before breifly leaving. When they next see eachother, the city guard have a permit from yhe Supremd Mage to go after Kierre so she suprisingly seeks refuge in Temper's home to which Temper lets her stay.
Over time, as Kierre stays living in Temper's house, he suspects that he's beginning to fall in love with her.
Powers and Abilities[]
Temper keeps his magic a secret, but is a pretty good fighter, even taking on Lethe. Like Anton Shudder, Temper is in possession of a gist. Unlike him, he has a lot less control over his. After using it to free himself from the rogue city guards of Roarhaven, he remarks that his next activation will force him to be a part of his gist instead.
In Seasons of War, however, it is revealed that Temper's magical disciple had changed from a Gist to the same Parasites in his hands that Razzia had. When Razzia had died, her Parasites, Hansel and Gretel, had transferred to Temper. He uses them to fight Gleeman Shakespeare.
Relationships[]
He has been romantically involved with Tessa Mehrbano, former member of the Anti-Sanctuary, Kierre of the Unveiled, Serafina Dey's younger sister.
Personality[]
Temper is laid-back, practical, and calm. He tries to be charming but often fails.
Description[]
Temper has dark skin and an American accent. He's also mentioned to be young, though for sorcerers this is a flexible term.
