== Web Comics and other Web Originals ==
* The [[Web Comic]] ''[[Sacred Pie]]'' features phlegmatic leader Roonas, choleric Sid, and a very sanguine Bob.
* ''[[The Order of the Stick|Order of the Stick]]'': Haley and Elan are Sanguine, Belkar is Choleric, V is Melancholic, Roy is Phlegmatic, and Durkon is Supine.
** The bad guys form an ensemble as well. Xykon is Choleric, Redcloak is Melancholic, Tsukiko and Right Eye (Start of Darkness) fitted Sanguine, and Monster in the Darkness is Phlegmatic or Supine.
* In the core group of ''[[Tales of MU]]'', Mack is melancholic, Amaranth is sanguine, Steff is choleric, and Two is supine.
** And Ian and Dee are both strong candidates for phlegmatic.
* Going by the negative traits (because really, they have no others,) the cast of ''[[Exterminatus Now]]'' fits pretty nicely: East is Sanguine, Lothar is Choleric, Virus is Melancholic, and Rogue is Phlegmatic.
* Looking at the the questing team in ''[[Digger]]'', The Shadowchild is Sanguine, Grim Eyes is Choleric, Murai is Melancholic, and Digger is Phlegmatic.
Line 58 ⟶ 56:
* [[Cry Havoc]] features Skoll a sanguine, Karcharoth a Choleric, Hati a melancholic, and Fenrir a phlegmatic. These characteristics seem to drive them apart more than unite them, as is normal.
* ''[[The Inexplicable Adventures of Bob]]:'' Bob is Phlegmatic, Jean is Melacholic, Molly is Sanguine, and Voluptua is Choleric (although Jean certainly has the hair-trigger ''temper'' of a Choleric).
* The two teams in [[Red vs. Blue]] fit, Red moreso than Blue.
** Red Team: Sarge - classic Choleric, Griff and Lopez - classic Plegmatic, Simmons - Melancholic, and Donut - Sanguine
** Blue Team: Church and Tex - Choleric, Tucker - Sanguine, Doc - Melancholic, and Caboose - neutral Phlegmatic, despite being a complete [[The Ditz]].
* The four main characters of the [[Web Animation]] series ''[[Broken Saints]]'' fit fairly well: Oran is Choleric, Kamimura is Melancholic, Raimi is Phlegmatic, and Shandala is Sanguine. (albeit, Shandala doesn't quite fit any of them, but her bright, cheerful, and compassionate nature recommend her most to Sanguine)
* The Light Warriors of ''[[8-Bit Theater]]'': Red Mage is Sanguine (emphasis on arrogant and self-indulgent), Thief is Choleric (emphasis on narrow-minded and obsessive), Fighter is Phlegmatic (emphasis on lazy and reactionary), and Black Mage is Melancholic (emphasis on [[Loners Are Freaks|independence]] and [[Kill'Em All|perfection]]).
* In ''[[The Dreamer]]'', Alan is Phlegmatic Type II, Alexander is Choleric, Beatrice is Sanguine, and Nathan is Melancholic.
* ''[[Sluggy Freelance]]'' fits this trope very well: Torg is Sanguine, Riff is Melancholic, Gwynn is Choleric, and Zoë is Phlegmatic.
* The titular doctors of ''[[The Dragon Doctors]]'': Sarin is Sanguine, Goro is Choleric, Mori is Melancholic, and Kili and Aki are Phlegmatic. Fittingly, the four were also compared by the artist to Air, Fire, Earth, and Water, respectively, matching the Four Temperments' elemental affiliations.
* An entire episode of the webseries ''[[Cracked.com|Cracked After Hours]]'' is devoted to discussing how many famous groups of four adhere to this schema, even describing several groups already listed on this page (though it's worth noting that they have misattributed the sanguine qualities to choleric characters, and vice versa). As they are also a quartet, they even describe themselves (indirectly, through analogy to the ''[[Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles]]'').
** ''By their definition'': Michael is Choleric, Dan is Phlegmatic, Soren is Melancholic, and Katie is Sanguine.
** ''By our definition'': Michael is Sanguine, Dan is Melancholic, Soren is Choleric, and Katie is Phlegmatic.
* ''[[Narbonic]]'': Helen is sanguine, Mell is choleric, Dave is phlegmatic and Artie is melancholic.
* The main four characters in ''[[Our Little Adventure]]''. Julie is Sanguine, Angelika is Choleric, Rocky is Melancholic, and Lenny is Phlegmatic.
* The [[Quirky Miniboss Squad]] in ''[[The Fourth]]''. Slice is Sanguine, Ecta is Choleric, Davis is Melancholic and Floyd is Phlegmatic.
