Tatu was born in Leopon Plains, as the second-born cub and only daughter of Ajani and Ayo, the younger sister of Mhina, and the older sister of Kicheko. Later, she and her siblings would gain an adoptive brother, named Kopa.
As a cub, Tatu showed a curious and adventurous personality, and was always willing to help anyone in need, most particularly young animals.

She also began to learn some aspects of ruling, in case she ever needed to succeed her brother.

===Legends of The Lion Guard: Battle for the Pride Lands===
Tatu is now a teenager. She spends time with her family outside the Kgosi Pride Den, asking Mhina if the Outlanders are still attacking the Pride Lands. When Ajani reveals that they are going to the Pride Lands, Tatu asks if they can go too, which her father agrees to. They are escorted to Pride Rock, and join the Lion Guard and Anga on a patrol. After driving away Fisi's Clan, Tatu thinks they need to head home, as their parents should be about ready to leave. There, Ajani begins to lead the Kgosi Pride back in the direction of Leopon Plains. While on the way to pick up the delegations, Fuli asks Kion who will be on the patrol, and he thinks that Mhina, his siblings, Rani, and Baliyo will join. After returning the parties to Pride Rock, Mhina says that his siblings want to join the patrol, and Kion states that they'll patrol Urembo Meadows. As they discuss the Outlander attacks, Ono reports that Maisha and Mahuluti are being attacked by Kiburi's Float at Lake Shangaza, and the patrol rushes there. Kion orders everyone but himself and Mhina to fight the crocodiles. Once they are roared off, the entire patrol, sans Kion and Mhina, head in the direction of Pride Rock. Later, Mhina asks his siblings to lead training sessions, and Tatu nods in agreement.
When the battle for the Pride Lands begins, Tatu is one of many animals gathered outside Pride Rock, and Simba assigns her, Kicheko, and Kopa to help Kion and Mhina at Kilio Valley. She calls for Mhina, interrupting his moment with Kion, much to his annoyance. Awkardly stepping away from Mhina, Kion assigns her to distract Mzingo's Parliament while Kicheko and Kopa make fire breaks. Some time afterward, Tatu, her siblings, Kion, and Ono fight Reirei's Pack at Chakula Plains, and she, Kicheko, and Kopa face off with Bila, Chaka, and Checka. Suddenly, Ono reports that Kion's family is overwhelmed by Kucha's Clan at Pride Rock, and everyone rushes over, joined by the rest of the Guard and Azaad. They charge into battle, and Tatu, along with the rest of her siblings, pull hyenas off of Simba. Kucha and her clan eventually retreat, and Tatu watches as Scar appears through a fire, addressing the crowd gathered before him.
Minutes later, Tatu is still left in shock. Suddenly, Ono reports two different attacks, the first being Reth's Pride attacking Maumivu Thorn Patch, and the second being Mzingo's Parliament attacking Acacia Grove while it is also on fire. Mhina offers for him and his siblings to fight Reth's Pride, and despite Kion's reservations, he allows them to. They bound off, quickly arriving at Maumivu Thorn Patch, and Tatu exclaims "what in Leopon Plains" upon seeing the chaos. Mhina hopes he can lead as well as Kion, and she assures him that he'll be fine. The leopons join the fight, and Tatu knocks Ruka away from Safi and Aliruka. Without warning, Kariuki scars Mhina over his eye, and Tatu shrieks no. She and Kicheko drag Kariuki and Slash away from Mhina, and with their mission done, Reth's Pride retreats. Tatu examines her brother's shoulder, believing it is infected and telling him that he must see a Mjuzi. She and Kicheko balance Mhina, who leans heavily against his sister, and they head to Flat Ridge Rock. When they arrive, Tatu calls to Rafiki, and they settle alongside Mhina. She explains what happened, her eyes wide, and she asks Rafiki if Mhina will be okay. He says that he'll be fine, and Mhina leans against Tatu's shoulder.
Rani then arrives with a scarred foreleg, and Tatu asks about who attacked her. She describes a dark orange lion with a scar over his eye, and Tatu realizes that it is Ubaya, who must have come to fight with Scar's forces. Mhina sighs, gazing at the setting sun, and Tatu inquires as to what's wrong. Mhina admits that he feels incomplete without Kion, about to admit that he's in love with him, but Tatu interrupts. She informs him that they've all known about his crush since they were cubs, and Rani adds that anyone would have to be as clueless as Bunga to not see it. Mhina then leans against Tatu's shoulder, closing his eyes, and Rafiki watches. Later, Tatu and her family arrive in the Lair to see Mhina, with Ajani saying that they told him and Ayo what happened. Simba then leads them out so Kion and Mhina have alone time.
