Tikal the Echidna

Tikal (ティカル Tikaru?) is a fictional character from the Sonic the Hedgehog series. She is an anthropomorphic echidna spirit and a former member of the Knuckles Clan who resided in the Mystic Ruins 3,000 years ago. She is also the daughter of Chief Pachacamac.
In her youth, Tikal lived in a period of war where she opposed her father's warmongering ways. 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.

==Tribal Ceremony==
She was chosen as one of the exotic members since the 3rd Tribal Ceremony. She often dances amongst her new tribesmen and offers/enchants others to join in. She still goes with her roots as a peacemaker to the Knuckles clan and sticks with her amazing secrets, but she does happen to be a motherly, sagacious figure of her new clan despite being the most beautiful and cutest. She sometimes wishes to repopulate her lost Echidna tribe as well.
In the fourth ceremony, she gathered with the young ones atop the Eternal Palace as Unaliving Liu Kang described his nemesis, Darkseid. She became concerned and determined to protect her brethren and accepted they were her own tribe like the lost Echidnas.
== Trivia ==
* Because of her regal style and since she, her father, and her clan have many tie-ins to ancient Mayan culture, she was chosen for Ikran's Top 10 Tribal Characters.
