Tesseline Hygadeine; 20 years old, a cat who lives in the Demorio Countryside alongside the rest of his family, which form the Philanthropy group. Brother of Patchblob, while sharing similar values to that of the latter, Tesseline is a very different person than his older brother. A person who values consistency, order and morality above most things while trying to keep his family as safe as he can, despite Patchblob personally assigning himself for such a task, Tesseline detests fighting yet nonetheless is forced to engage into such tasks. Differentiated from his brother by the rich, velvety indigo fur adorned in some flecks of blue fur and numerical symbols on his face, Tesseline is an orderly creature. Highly intelligent, this comes as both as a blessing and a curse to him - on one hand, his intelligence prevents him from being marred or harmed by events, but alternatively, his intelligence causes him to be alienated from others outside of his family, many finding him to be somewhat pedantic or obsessive concerning this. Despite his lack of interest in fighting, his detest towards engaging within conflict, Tesseline is a remarkably swift and nifty fighter, with his Drive named Intelligent Ace being vicious and destructive if given the chance. Although, he prefers to give his opponents chances to back down peacefully, before things get to this point. His position and influence within the Velvet Underground, near to the Hygadeine residence, is something he takes pride in, and a fear of his is losing that sense of purpose and order. Similarly to Gambit in intelligence, Tesseline frowns upon her violent and impulsive methods, to which Gambit frowns upon him for his perceived lack of enthusiasm or gusto for trying to resolve problems with a more direct touch. The two are parallel, although Tesseline believes himself to be the more emotionally intelligent of the two.
His mannerisms are derived from chaos within his early life and the shared trauma that both himself and his older brother Patchblob have been through, with his compulsion to maintain sanctity and stability clashing with the increasing madness that the Philantropy group face, leading him to be deeply angry and cynical, privately, as a result. Despite this, Tesseline holds optimism within his worldview, and wants the best for his entire family. A better tomorrow, despite his cynicism, is always within reach, be believes.
