(and also the fanfic's not finished so... sorry if you get spoiled-)
=== Main Story ===
Tem was formerly Monster Kid, the adopted child of the Dreemurrs, the princette of the underground, and the best friend of Frisk, the first fallen human. 
After their plan to free monsterkind failed failed, their dust was spread on the Temmie doll that they cherished very much. They and their sibling's deaths led to the "kill or be killed" philosophy being adopted by the underground. Only days later, while conducting determination experiments, the royal scientist Undyne injected the doll with determination, and soon after, Asgore brought the doll and Frisk's body to Ruined Home.
Soon after, they awoke in Ruined Home, confused. They told Asgore everything that had happened, and while able to feel, something felt... wrong. They soon realized that they had no SOUL, and thus, shouldn't be able to feel love.
Spending time in the Tattered Ruins, as they soon came to call it, felt wrong, and so they left, managing to make their way to the capital, where they met their mother, Toriel. She tried her best to comfort them, but still, something felt wrong.
They soon learned of the "kill or be killed" philosophy that had been adopted, and knew immediately what felt wrong. They asked Toriel to stop, as nice as they could muster. But the queen killed their child with a blast of fire magic.
Something burned inside, and it wasn't the fire that they had just been killed by. They woke in the Tattered Ruins again, as if nothing had happened. They had the ability to "SAVE" and "LOAD" their "SAVE file".
They tried again and again to get Toriel to revoke the philosophy, but it never worked. And so, they watched helplessly as humans fell and died. They wanted to help them, but they knew that Toriel was merciless now, so they gave up, despite their determination.
But then Chara fell. They reminded Tem, as they'd now started to go by, of their best friend and sibling...
So they helped them.
=== Personality ===
Tem is much like Underfell Flowey in many ways. They're kind and one of the few monsters who doesn't follow the "kill or be killed" philosophy, instead opting to help the protagonist. They do have a few differences from Underfell Flowey; unlike him, they're not all that sassy or rude, if at all, and are also more naive and cowardly. Alongside this, unlike Underswap Temmie, whose broken English tends to be a facade, Tem can, for the most part, only speak broken English, unless angered (i.e. in the Genocide Route and at the end of the True Pacifist Route (when Toriel tries to kill Chara)) or feeling other strong emotions.
=== Appearance ===
As seen in their overworld sprite, Tem is a small, canine or feline-like creature with gray hair, that is somewhat messy. They have white fur, and have a pair of cat ears on the top of their head, though one is covered by their hair; they also have a pair of dog ears on the sides of their head. They wear a striped shirt, with purple, black and a lighter purple, more so lavender, stripes.
== Relationships ==
=== Frisk (Adopted Sibling/Best Friend) ===
As Monster Kid, they were the one who found Frisk and brought them home to their adopted parents, Asgore and Toriel. While at first Monster Kid was jealous of how their parents gave Frisk more attention, when the human gave them a Temmie doll for their birthday, they grew to care for them. Even as Tem, they still care for Frisk; unbeknownst to them, the fallen human is with Chara all the way.
=== Chara (Friend) ===
