Character biography
She falls in love with Bastion, and after some sweet talking and showing off her amazing dueling skills, defeats Bastion and makes him her bridegroom for a short time until she grows tired of him. She fights Jaden in a soul match with the effect of Amazoness Arena, and later reveals her true form to be that of a white tiger, using a Shadow Charm gauntlet she obtained from joining the Shadow Riders to assume human form to find a worthy duelist to be her husband. She eventually resumes her true form and runs off.

During the third year, she appears before Jaden and his group while they are in the middle of their search for the missing Jesse. She was returned to her human form when she was sucked into the second alternate dimension since their last visit. She serves as their guide through the first town they encounter, and stays behind with Bastion after Jaden liberates the town.

Tania also has a pet tiger named Bass, who resembles the "Amazoness Tiger".
