How to Save Tenna and Find Him a New Home in Deltarune

Ant Tenna is the main antagonist of Deltarune Chapter 3, but he can be saved and recruited to your Castle Town if you meet certain criteria during your playthrough. While Tenna sustains critical damage at the end of Deltarune Chapter 3, he isn't lost for good. As long as you save some of his friends before leaving the TV World and avoid certain other behaviors, you can keep Tenna around for future chapters.

Tenna still takes quite a bit of damage from the Roaring Knight at the end of Deltarune Chapter 3, so he needs some fixing up at the start of Chapter 4. Once he's repaired, he asks you to find someone to adopt him. Thankfully, there's an entire town to explore in Deltarune Chapter 4, and there has to be somebody who needs a new TV.

How to Save Tenna in Deltarune

To save Tenna in Deltarune, you have to recruit Pippins and Shadowguy. A full pacifist run isn't required, but you do have to spare these two Darkners enough times to recruit them to your Castle Town. If these two are saved, Tenna will show up in his own room next to Queen and Lancer during Chapter 4.

Pippins and Shadowguy are quite common throughout Deltarune Chapter 3, so you shouldn't have any issues finding enough of them to spare. As long as you don't kill any of them and use the controller to shred the papers of the working Shadowguys near the end of Deltarune Chapter 3, you'll recruit them easily.

How to Find Someone to Adopt Tenna in Deltarune

If you recruited Pippins and Shadowguy during Deltarune Chapter 3, Tenna will move into your Castle Town in Chapter 4. When you go check on Ralsei at the beginning of Chapter 4, enter the castle and head upstairs. There, you'll find Tenna in a brand-new room next to the other former antagonists.

There's not much to see in Tenna's room (other than Rouxls Kaard still desperately trying to win his favor), but he'll ask you to find someone to adopt him. A TV needs an audience, after all. This is completely optional in Deltarune Chapter 4, but it's the least you can do for a funny little guy like Tenna.

One of the residents of Kris' hometown will gladly take Tenna in. Walk all the way north until you reach the street just below Kris' house. Then, continue east until you reach a lopsided house. Knock on the door and the person inside will take Tenna.

It's still unclear if Tenna's new home comes up in future chapters of Deltarune since only the first four are available now. Knowing Toby Fox, though, this won't be the last you see of Tenna.

That's all there is to do with Tenna in Chapter 4 of Deltarune. Once you've taken care of everyone's favorite TV host, you can continue with the main story of Chapter 4. Keep an eye out for secret bosses along the way.
