Tikal Stormclaw

Tikal Stormclaw is a spirit awoken by Morganthe but left behind as she is not old enough for Morganthe’s evil plans. She asks your wizard to repair the damage done to her tomb. Once you have finished repairs she sends you further in the Pyramid of Storm Eye to defeat Morganthe’s minions who are stealing treasure.

Tikal is a character that appears in the Sonic the Hedgehog series. She was an anthropomorphic echidna spirit and the only daughter of Pachacamac, a power-hungry patriarch who was the last chieftain of the Knuckles Clan, which resided in what is now the Mystic Ruins 3,000 years ago.

Tikal

In her youth, Tikal lived in a period of war where she opposed her father’s warmongering ways, though she was ignored by Pachacamac himself and his supporters. During this time, she befriended the local Chao and their guardian, Chaos. When Chaos went on a destructive rampage after her father attempted to steal the Chaos Emeralds and the Master Emerald, Tikal stopped Chaos by sealing it inside the Master Emerald with her own spirit. In the present era, Tikal was released when Dr. Eggman planned to use Chaos to take over the world, where she aided Sonic the Hedgehog and his allies. After Chaos was calmed, Tikal left with it to live in peace.
