History:
One of the most skilled duelists of her generation, a firebrand, and a radical within the Order. As a Padawan, Tiika and her master were dispatched to act as negotiators during the Denillian Succession Crisis, a power struggle between five noble families following the death of their planet's previous ruler. During that mission, Tiika and her master were taken captive by a group of anti-royalist rebels for several months; she came away from the experience believing that the Jedi had been helping the wrong side. Since then, Tiika has regularly argued for the Jedi to be more proactive in combating darkness and injustice throughout the galaxy. She has proposed several missions to those ends to the Council and her master, which have been regularly denied. This has not always stopped her from getting involved.

Tiika earned her knighthood fighting in the Battle of Geonosis, where her master was killed. Prior to the war, she had idolized former Jedi Master Dooku and had been sympathetic to the Separatist movement.
