History[]
Tiki is the daughter of the Divine Dragon, Naga, making her the Princess of the Divine Dragon clan under her mother's leadership. Fearing Tiki's potential power, and how it could be misused if Tiki were to ever fall to the insanity that often claimed the minds of dragons, Naga forced her daughter into a deep sleep and to be watched over by a group of her most trusted Manakete allies.
However, the Manaketes who helped protect, raise, and keep Tiki asleep as often as possible slowly grew sympathetic to the lack of a childhood the girl was getting, and eventually her adopted father Bantu decided to break his promise to Naga and took Tiki out into the world to let the young girl be free and live a little. Unfortunately, they were separated, and it did not take long for Tiki to be kidnapped, brainwashed, and turned into a living weapon by the dark mage Gharnef. Thankfully the Hero-King Marth was able to help rescue and save her, and eventually reform the Fire Emblem, the power of which would help restrain Tiki's power so she could remain awake for longer periods of time without going insane.
Nearly two thousand years later Tiki was seen again, acting as a priestess for her mother Naga, who the humans had come to worship as a god. She was the mortal connection to her now-deceased mother and would spread her word of love and peace as much as she could with humanity. This was until she was held hostage in her home of the Mila tree by the empire of Valm (though, she was taking a nap during this and may not have been aware she was even a hostage), later rescued by Chrom, Robin, Lucina, and the Shepherds. After being rescued and taking some time to meditate and return a portion of her power, Tiki became a member of Chrom's Shepherds to once again help save the world. Depending on the events of the story and player choice, she can even fall in love with Robin and have a child with him named Morgan.
Tiki has also made a number of other appearances outside of this main timeline. Both her past and current self have joined the Order of Heroes in Fire Emblem Heroes, her younger self was playable in Fire Emblem: Warriors, she made a surprise appearance helping several Sega, Capcom, and Nintendo characters on their adventure in Project X Zone 2, appeared as one of the main Mirages in the crossover game with Shin Megami Tensei: Tokyo Mirage Sessions #FE, and is a color-swap option for Lucina, an Assist Trophy, and Primary Spirit in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate.

Tiki can also use a variety of weapons thanks to her training with the Shepherds, such as Swords, Lances, Axes, Staves, and Magic Tomes (And Bows in DLC), but because these are not her base class it's unknown what weapons she would bring to battle or have on hand after her training.
Abilities and Feats[]
- Has lived for over 3000 years and has met and battled alongside, and against, many of Fire Emblem's best
- Has battled in at least 4 major conflicts so far: The War of Shadows, the War of Heroes, the Valmese Invasion/Resistance, and the Grimleaf's revival of Grima
- Was a major ally of Hero-King Marth and later became a member of Chrom's Shepherds
- Was feared for having the power to destroy the entire world
- Was able to battle Earth Dragon Medeus, another dragon who was feared for his ability to end the world, as a child.
- Could do battle with Grima, the Fell Dragon, who also had the power to end the world (and did in alternate timelines), as an adult. Note: This is even more impressive because Grima had the power to negate Tiki's Wyrmsbane and Divine Dragon powers, meaning she wasn't able to hit as hard as she should've
- Can dodge thrown lances, axes, arrows, and even dodge lightning bolts
- Trained with the Shepards to master a variety of weapons and fighting styles, and shown herself to be a capable soldier without transforming into a dragon.
- Can duel major antagonists like Walhart in Manakete form despite supposedly being weaker in that form.
- Possibly can sprout her wings without becoming a full dragon
- Might be able to open Outrealm Gates on her own (Project X Zone 2)
Weaknesses[]
- Often very sleepy, needs to nap often to stay refreshed and stave off insanity
- Can be a bit clueless when sleepy
- Is a bit naive and willing to trust in people's better nature
- Takes extra damage from anti-dragon weapons even in Manakete form
- May be purposefully weakening herself to avoid going insane, has needed to use rituals to get 'some' of her power back
