Tarsier

 is a character in DARLING in the FRANXX.

Appearance
As a Sage, Tarsier sports the typical white-and-gold robe and primate mask worn by the members of their elite number. Tarsier is the shortest of the Seven Sages. He is revealed to have hidden magma blades beneath his sleeves, as he attempts to kill the Klaxosaur Princess in Episode 17.

Personality
Like the other sages, he is devoid of the understanding of and human feelings. He sees parasites and FRANXX Squads as disposable tools of warfare and will not hesitate to sacrifice them to fulfil APE's ultimate goal - eradicating the klaxosaurs for humanity's good.

Tarsier seems to act on impulse as he attacked the Klaxosaur Princess immediately when he felt threatened, despite Lemur's protests. However, the Klaxosaur Princess impaled him and his impulse caused his demise.

Episode 17: Eden
In this episode, Tarsier goes with Lemur to ask the Princess of the Klaxosaurs to surrender. After the princess screams for a short while, Tarsier launches a failed attempt to murder her and is killed in the process.
