Telence T. D'Arby (テレンス・T・ダービー, Terensu Tī Dābī) est un antagoniste secondaire figurant dans la troisième partie de JoJo's Bizarre Adventure, Stardust Crusaders, dans l'arc narratif "D'Arby the Player".
Telence est le petit frère de Daniel J. D'Arby. Il réside dans le Manoir de DIO au Caire et est l'intendant de DIO. Souhaitant la bienvenue au Groupe Joestar, il prend avec lui Jotaro, Joseph et Kakyoin puis les force à parier leurs âmes aux jeux vidéo.
Telence est le dernier membre des 9 Dieux Glorieux d'Egypte et son Stand est Atum, qui lui permet de voler les âmes de ceux qui reconnaissent leur défaite et de lire dans les pensées.
Telence est un homme adulte avec une carrure moyenne. Sa caractéristique principale est sa chevelure qui monte en une touffe lisse verticale enserré dans un ruban. Il porte un costume avec une veste longue et un pantalon clairs, et une chemise sombre avec un grand coeur sur la poitrine. Il porte une ceinture et des boucles d'oreilles qui arborent ses initiales.
Comme son frère, une partie de son visage est marqué par des stries, mais c'est pour lui le milieu du front, l'arête du nez et le milieu du menton, contrastant les joues striées de Daniel.
En tant que majordome de DIO, Telence est un individu qui est très formel et poli en temps normal. Cependant, ceci ne fait que cacher une personnalité arrogante et malveillante.
Comme il est l'intendant du Manoir de DIO, Telence est poli et affable. Il va ainsi à la rencontre du Groupe Joestar pour leur souhaiter la bienvenue, même lorsque le groupe répond en le provoquant.
Bien que Telence semble être un individu calme, il confesse qu'il a tabassé son grand frère Daniel quand celui-ci avait essayé de séduire sa copine. Il se sent aussi supérieur à son frère à cause de son pouvoir de lire l'âme des gens mais Jotaro lui dit qu'il n'a pas l'esprit affuté que son frère a acquis en tant que parieur.[1][2] La malveillance de Telence devient manifeste lorsqu'il exhibe sa collection de poupées dans lesquelles il a piégé les âmes de ses victimes, les tourmentant en jouant avec elles alors qu'elles sont pleinement conscientes de leur état.[3]
Telence est un homme intelligent et est très doué aux jeux vidéo. Il est fier d'avoir battu un jeune Japonais nommé Tatsuhiko qui avait un QI de 190 et s'est montré plus fort que Kakyoin aux jeux, et ce sans utiliser son pouvoir de lire les pensées.
Cependant, Telence s'appuie tellement sur son pouvoir qu'il en oublie d'exercer son esprit tactique. En effet, il était tellement absorbé sur le fait de lire l'esprit de Jotaro qu'il en a complètement oublié Joseph, qui jouait alors à la place de son petit-fils.
Telence a un certain attachement au chiffre 15 et a l'habitude de choisir le chiffre 15 dans ses jeux, car son anniversaire est le 1er janvier (en japonais, le mois vient avant le jour, ce qui fait 1/5).
Le Stand de Telence est Atum, un Stand humanoïde qui peut voler l'âme des gens qui reconnaissent leur défaite comme Osiris. Cependant, Atum peut aussi lire l'âme des gens et Telence peut lire leur intentions en posant aux âmes des questions fermées (càd auxquelles on répond oui ou non).
Telence est très doué aux jeux vidéo. Il possède une collections de jeux vidéos sur lesquels il défie des opposants et il maîtrise ses jeux à un tel point qu'il peut gagner contre d'autre joueur de haut niveau comme Noriaki Kakyoin.
Telence est un américain et le petit frère de Daniel J. D'Arby. Grâce à son talent aux jeux vidéo et à son Stand Atum, il pouvait voler des âmes encore plus facilement que Daniel et il gagnait toujours aux jeux. Grâce à Atum, Telence put amasser une petite collection de poupée avec l'âmes de personnes qu'il trouvait spéciales.
A un moment, Daniel a essayé de séduire sa petite amie alors Telence l'a battu.
After DIO came back from the bottom of the ocean, Telence met him at one point and entered into his service, becoming one of the Egypt 9 Glory Gods.
As the Joestar Group opens the front door of DIO's Mansion, Telence comes out of the shadows to greet them. Polnareff summons Silver Chariot, but the man then throws a card to interrupt his attack, finishing his formal greeting. Telence presents himself and reveals that he is the younger brother of Daniel J. D'Arby. However, he reassures his guests that he bears no ill will for his brother's defeat, explaining his superiority to Daniel. Telence openly brings out his Stand Atum, and when Jotaro comes out and summons Star Platinum, Telence perfectly guesses Star Platinum's incoming attack and evades it. Grabbing its arm as a dark hole appears on the floor, Atum drags Jotaro with it into the hole, followed suit by Joseph and Kakyoin. Telence brings the heroes to an island with a drawer, some TV sets and a game console and tells them that they won't be able to proceed until they defeat him. When Joseph points out that it is a three-against-one fight, D'Arby then shows his collections of dolls infused with the souls of his victims as testament of his strength, and incidentally showing his twisted soul. Indeed, Telence can also steal the soul of anyone who loses to him in a game. Moreover, D'Arby already has his grip on part of Jotaro's soul due to having guessed Jotaro's next blow earlier. Thus, the group is forced to play games with D'Arby to defeat him.
D'Arby requests that Kakyoin is the first to challenge him to a video game of his choosing, to which he agrees as he himself is quite talented at them. Thus, Kakyoin chooses F-Mega, a racing game. On the starting line, Kakyoin forgets to mash the acceleration button that gives the cars a boost. D'Arby is now slightly ahead and is confident that he will keep his advantage but Kakyoin purposefully spins his car and crashes it against Telence's, making things even; still, Kakyoin is at a slight disadvantage. At the sixth corner of the race track, both players expect to enter a shortcut tunnel, but the tunnel is only large enough to fit one car. Due to his spinning, Kakyoin's car has less energy and is pushed aside by Telence's but he then expertly makes his car drive on the wall of the tunnel. The cars enter the shortcut's most dangerous area where they cannot see the car yet must avoid the mines and a cannon. At the exit of the tunnel, D'Arby's car is still ahead of Kakyoin's car and the butler declares his victory. Determined to win, Kakyoin exploits the fact that D'Arby has now less energy on his car to spin and make it fly out off the tracks while he lands safely. Kakyoin has accomplished his plan, but D'Arby was prepared: he purposefully let himself get knocked aside to gain an insurmountable advantage for the race. At the revelation, Kakyoin subconsciously recognizes defeat and Atum steals his soul. D'Arby adds Kakyoin to his collection and explains that should he die, Kakyoin will die for good, forcing Jotaro and Joseph to keep playing.
Immediately afterward, Telence is challenged by Jotaro, who challenges him at the baseball game Oh That's A Baseball!. Initially, Telence makes use of his superior experience to pitch for Jotaro's batter's cold zones, but is surprised when Jotaro claims that he has "memorized how to hit" and scores a home run right after, along with a few more after that. This forces Telence to recognize Star Platinum's incredible precision and to counter that with his Stand's precognitive abilities.
Telence responds to this by hinting at the true nature of his Stand's powers and follows up by claiming his next pitch is a forkball. Atum, however, reads Jotaro's response and Telence changes his pitch to a fastball. This causes Jotaro's batter to hit a pop fly, and D'Arby's player manages to catch it, causing Jotaro's third out and the players to change sides. D'Arby claims his next hit will be a home run and demonstrates this by responding to Jotaro's pitch directly at his player and hitting a home run and repeating the process twice more.
Jotaro then removes his hat and calls his pitch, and D'Arby answers, though is promptly surprised when Jotaro manages to force his batter out with a pitch that was contrary to both his call and his soul's confirmation of the pitch. D'Arby, using Atum, manages to figure out that Jotaro was cheating and, because he is unable to figure out how he is cheating and Jotaro quoted his brother's line as justification for his continued participation in the game, loses his temper and attempts to figure out Jotaro's trick, but is unable to and the sides change as a result. D'Arby finally blows a fuse and knocks Jotaro's cap off, checks his console, and questions him repeatedly on how he was cheating, but is still unable to figure out the reason. D'Arby makes one final pitch, but Jotaro scores another home run, causing D'Arby's soul to admit defeat and Kakyoin's soul to be released.
Telence immediately tries to cover up his defeat but is promptly proven wrong by Jotaro reiterating the ability of his Stand. He then turns his head and notices that one of the controllers has Hermit Purple wrapped around it, causing him to realize that the one playing against him was not Jotaro, but rather Joseph Joestar. When both Joestars turn around to finish him, Telence asks if he could be spared but is sharply countered when Jotaro asks him to find the answer by reading his soul, which, much to his horror, answers "no". Jotaro then presents Telence with the dilemma of guessing which fist he will hit him with. Telence asks if it is the "left", and then the "right", before finding out that the answer is "both". Telence finally asks if it is Jotaro's signature attack "ora ora ora ora ora ora ora ora..." before receiving his answer directly in the form of a Star Platinum barrage and being blown straight through the false sky created by Kenny G.[4]
Later DIO, who kept Telence at his side because he liked his ability, comments that Telence will never understand why he lost because he was not willing to die for him as Vanilla Ice was.

CitationsUnlike his battle in the manga, on the SNES title, Telence is encountered and fought like a normal boss, as he uses his Stand, ATUM, to make physical attacks on the player.
Telence is one of several "quick time event" bosses in the console versions of the game.
At first, the player controls Kakyoin in order to race against Telence in the F-1 Racing and later controls Jotaro to play a Baseball game.
Unlike the minigames against Daniel D'Arby, there's no alternate ending against Telence, his battle will always end by Jotaro beating him.
Telence appears on several commercials challenging Jotaro to fight in All Star Battle (as the game's launch was coming closer Telence's reaction were getting more and more desperate, ending by his famous mind reading on Jotaro "YES! YES! YES!", much like his reactions against Jotaro in the manga).
Telence also appears as the explanatory character for the CHARACTER GALLERY MODE, where the player can see all the characters models and costumes (similar to his Stand ability).
