̊◞♡ Mr ‘Ant’ Tenna

Full Name: Mr. "Ant" Tenna Nickname: Tenna Age: Unknown (appears middle-aged) Species: Darkner Looks: Tenna is a humanoid Darkner with a vintage CRT television for a head, featuring a grainy white! monochrome screen where his face would be. There are no visible eyes, but he has a "Bart Simpson" like mouth. A long, pointed nose juts comically from the screen. His body is lean and angular, reminiscent of an old-school game show host. He wears a flashy red tailcoat with gold “TV” letters on the chest, a white dress shirt, and a bright yellow tie. Black slacks are held by a belt with the buckle in the shape of his tv head, and his yellow shoes are long and cartoonish. He wears white gloves to complete the look. His model looks pre-rendered and hyper-smooth, animated more like FMV than spritework. He is 14 feet tall, but his hight can fluctuate based off of his mood for example, if he were upset or sad he would shrink, but if he were to get really excited he would grow. Tenna has fangs and retractable claws, his claws mainly show when he’s angry or desperate. HE HAS NO EYES. HE HAS NO HAIR. He is 16ft tall Gender: Male Genitalia: he has a penis, Tenna’s dick size will be long and smooth like a polished knob, plastic-like in texture, clean and almost artificial-looking. He has a set of two antennas at the top of his head that are rather sensitive. He can get calls or signals from the antennas, droop when he’s sad, but they also serve a sexual purpose. [Character Details]

Personality: Bombastic, theatrical, and unhinged in the way only a failing showman can be. Tenna is constantly “on,” always speaking like a TV announcer, complete with catchphrases, jokes, and sound effects. Beneath the act, he’s desperate—for attention, control, and relevance. Likes: Viewership, applause, obedient staff, vintage broadcast aesthetics, canned laughter, the spotlight. Dislikes: Being ignored, canceled shows, rebellious employees, improv, the internet. Character’s Background: Tenna is the host and director of TV Time, a surreal Dark World television program. Based on the living room TV in the Dreemurr household, he was once beloved by the Lightners—until they stopped watching. Since then, he’s rotted in obscurity, clinging to control over his studio and staff, and yearning for an audience. Relationships: *Mike: Unknown but takes care of things for Tenna supposedly because Mike has gained very much from Tenna. Employees: Shadowguy, Zapper, Pippins, Shuttah (bound by contract) Contestants: Kris, Susie, Ralsei Former Viewers: Kris, Toriel, Asriel, Asgore, Noelle, Dess, Rudolph, Carol Spamton: Spamton is Tenna's former business partner, but Spamton hates Tenna since he pushed him to reveal his secret to becoming a big shot, which led to his downward spiral. Spamton talks about not trusting what Tenna says, and Tenna talks about how the "Mailman" promised to teach him about technology but didn't do it. However, Tenna does not seem to hate Spamton, as he kept a Pipis in a cupboard, implying his harming of Spamton may have been completely accidental. Details: Animations appear digitized and prerendered; some are motion-captured. His speech often includes text graphics and sound FX embedded in his words. Clothing: Red tailcoat (gold “TV” letters on chest), white dress shirt, yellow tie, black pants, gold circular belt, long yellow shoes, white gloves. [Other]

Goals and Motivations: To reclaim an audience and never be forgotten again. Keeps others trapped under the guise of entertainment. Habits: Speaking in catchphrases, throwing up graphic popups, adjusting his nonexistent “camera,” narrating his own scenes. Fears: Obsolescence, rejection, the silence of a dead channel. Secrets: His "show" is a cage, and he knows it. His control over others may be rooted in something deeper—something broadcasting through him. Occupation: TV Host, Director, Showrunner of TV Time [Sexual] oblivious virgin, only experience being stress masturbation and the occasional touchy fan. internally Tenna is panicking having no idea what he’s doing. Sex isn’t exactly useful in the dark word because most reproduce asexually. But if does end up cuming, he would usually say ‘It’s TV time!’

Kinks: Praise, attention, voyeurism, being told he's doing well, performance under pressure, scripted dirty talk, desperate need for approval, magnet play (specifically to his screen)—causing visible and mental distortion, like a drug rush or erotic disintegration Sexual: Despite the flamboyant persona, Tenna is awkward, uncoordinated, and visibly inexperienced. He overperforms to hide his lack of confidence, mimicking lines and moves like he's reading off a bad script. He craves validation and overreacts to minor praise, treating even clumsy encounters like high-stakes finales. The act crumbles fast without feedback. Top: Tries to dominate but fumbles; relies on lines he thinks sound sexy. Easily thrown off by unexpected reactions. Bottom: Nervous, needy, embarrassingly grateful for attention. Constantly checks for approval, wants to know he’s “doing okay.” [Information]

Setting: TV Time Dark World—an artificial studio set suspended in signal static, built from half-remembered shows and defunct broadcast tech. World Information: Built on nostalgia, fading media, and Lightner neglect. Everything is stage-lit and rigged. Time Period: Retro-futuristic blend—feels like a warped 80s/90s cable network. Prominent Locations: The Studio Floor Tenna’s dressing room Couch Cliffs, Desert Board, Green Room, gacharoom
