He chose to study Alchemy and associated disciplines, and achieved the title of Master. During his studies, he befriended a magpie that now serves as his "seeing-eye bird" (though its reliability is questionable). He also developed a psychological addiction to alvmint, or "purple grass." Noticing his struggle with abandoning his faith, his mentor advised he look into the god Nethys. Tempus eventually began to refer to himself as a follower of Nethys, though he has sworn to never again make an oath to a deity. Upon completing his studies, he decided to travel the world in an attempt to find a new calling.
Tempus has a kind, laid-back personality. He is patient, especially with children (due to his experience with his younger siblings). While he often seems irresponsible or uncaring, Tempus will readily assume the role of caretaker for anyone he deems in need of a guiding hand. He acts according to his whims, and has traveled extensively. Despite being a Master of Alchemy, he has chosen to live as a Druid instead, spending most of his time among trees and mountains. He is currently employed by Lord Dolce Gabbana.

The list of amazing people following the adventures of Tempus Borden.
Social
Contacts & Relations
Very close to former companions of his from a previous venture, Hexah and Chunkus. He still writes them letters from time to time, including small gifts from his travels, and visits when he can.
Wealth & Financial state
Surprisingly wealthy, due to the fact that he spends little money on food and shelter, preferring to instead sleep under the stars and forage. His adventuring is primarily to give him something to do when bored, but it pays well.
Family Ties
Tempus rarely speaks to his family members, but sends gifts to his siblings on their birthdays. He and his parents have a very strained relationship. He still hopes to be close to them someday, but has resigned himself to being the black sheep of the family.
Religious Views
Follows Nethys, but is not especially invested. Formerly worshiped Sarenrae and studied to become a priest of her order, but left the church without finishing his religious education.
Social Aptitude
Very shy, but feigns relaxation, which often comes across as flippancy. He's very nervous in front of people he doesn't know well. While he generally doesn't worry about etiquette, he's actually well-versed in proper manners and behavior.
Hobbies & Pets
Collects a menagerie of animal companions everywhere he goes. He enjoys knitting and other yarnwork, as well as reading and alchemical experimentation.
Speech
Tends to trail off without finishing his sentence. Has a slight Elvish accent. When sober, his speech is clipped and carefully enunciated. He has a wide vocabulary, but typically speaks casually.
