Personality

A Personality is a trait that a Denjuu has which effects its behavior in a certain way. Personalities are randomly assigned to Denjuu, and are described as being associated with the Denjuu's birthdate, similar to a zodiac. These behaviors are often hindrances and include the Denjuu being unwilling to attack, using the first move in its movelist without input from the T-Fanger, being late to battle often, fleeing battle when its HP is low, and more. The less a Denjuu's FD, the more likely it is to exhibit its personality.

List of personalities[edit]

  • Righteous (ちょーりちぎ), the Bone sign:

English Patch Notes[edit]

Telefang 1 personalities have had different names in earlier translation versions(not all, but certain ones).

  • Righteous was known as 'Loyal.'
  • Honest was known as 'Faithful.'
  • Irritable was known as 'Tense.'
  • Hotheaded was known as Irritable before, causing confusion.

In Telefang 2[edit]

There are fewer personalities in Telefang 2, but now they also have positive effects. Practically all of the ill effects of personalities boil down to Denjuu saying they'll be late and there being an indefinite number of turns on the wait counter (shown with a question mark), or the Denjuu sometimes not arriving at all.

  • Relaxed (のんびり):
Denjuu may get distracted on the way, but will "fight until the last" in battle (exact meaning of this unknown.)
  • Hasty (せっかち):
Denjuu is more likely to make a wrong turn on the way, but is faster in battle.
  • Stubborn (わがまま):
Denjuu may not feel like coming to battle, but his friend is much more likely to turn up.
  • Timid (こわがり):
Denjuu might be too afraid to come to battle at first, but is better at dodging attacks.
  • Irritable (たんき):
Denjuu may get upset when called and not arrive at all, but is also more likely to make a critical hit.
  • Serious (まじめ):
Denjuu always arrives on time, but always endures attacks rather than dodging them.

Trivia[edit]

In Telefang 1, due to a programming error, a Denjuu has a 14% chance of having a Relaxed personality. Every other personality has an 8% probability of being chosen. Another error, related to FD calculation, can cause a Denjuu to misbehave nearly constantly. This, however, tends to absolve itself, meaning this is most likely a frustrating oversight.
