By accident and dumb luck, Tiphanie’s life had a hole blasted through it… just like her hometown.
When Team Flare destroyed a chunk of Geosenge Town, Tiphanie and her family were taken with it. But divine choice shone on her, and she was revived as Zygarde’s emissary
Finding herself depressed and alone, she was picked up and ‘adopted’ by the two legends she was technically supposed to be the boss of. Aurelien and Aya may not be great influences, but they’ve brought back Tiphanie’s pep and spark for life.
She currently lives at the Kalos mafia’s hotel front, and is finding she’s growing quite well into her role as the big boss of Kalos’s legends. But the world of crime is a dangerous one, and Tiphanie’s best friend is keen on protecting her from it.
How long will it take before internal conflicts between Kalos’s legends force Tiphanie to live up to her destined role and put her foot down?
Appearance
Tiphanie is 5’5″, with an average-thin build. She has long green hair and black eyes – however, she often wears fashion contacts, her most common one being a yellow and black sclera contact.
She’s a fan of body modification in theory, but is too afraid of pain to actually do anything permanent. She loves to express herself through fashion, accessories, and prosthetic sharp teeth.
Tiphanie was designed by Akemono
Personality
Tiphanie acts about as you’d expect for someone full-on into the scene revival wave – she’s peppy and enthusiastic, and brings energy wherever she goes. Her friends consider her to have a very good sense of humor, even though she takes all her jokes from the internet.
She isn’t reckless, however. She’s very careful due to a fear of pain and difficulty, made worse after the Flare incident. Even if she speaks without thinking often, she always calculates her actions to avoid any potential pain.
Story
I’ll get to it… eventually.
Skills
Emissary of Zygarde:
- Monitor of the ecosystem:
- Zygarde’s ability to split into cells allows it to monitor the ecosystem of the Western continent. Zygarde’s power depends on how many of these cells are with it, so it’s a bit of a game of balance.
- The cells seem to act independently from Tiphanie, however she can project into them and take control of them if need be. She describes it as a dreamlike, slightly dissociative experience.

- Balance on the scale of life and death
- While Amalthea used to use her best judgement to enforce this in the past, Zygarde possesses the true ability to tell if the balance of life and death is in order.
- Multi-forme:
- Depending on how many cells Zygarde has with it, it’s form changes. From the canine-like 10% form, the serpentine 50% form, to the grand giant 100% form.
- Tiphanie’s favorite form is 10%, though she also enjoys 50% for it’s power.
- Depending on how many cells Zygarde has with it, it’s form changes. From the canine-like 10% form, the serpentine 50% form, to the grand giant 100% form.
- Conditional immortality:
- Legends stop aging physically at age 21, after that, they do not age and as such, cannot die from old age, though they can be killed through other means.
Jewelry:
- In lack of any formal training or schooling since graduating high school, Tiphanie has taken up a prolific hobby in making jewelry and similar accessories. Of course, she specializes in scenecore-esque pieces, though with supplies from Souadou, she can make more formal pieces as well.
Relationships
Souadou – QPP
Tiphanie and Souadou have been best friends since middle school, and are practically inseparable. Upon revival, the first things Tiphanie did was seek a way to contact Souadou to tell her she was ok. Souadou frequently gifts Tiphanie with materials for jewelery-making, and in return, Tiphanie frequently finds a creative muse while thinking of gifts to make Souadou.
Aurelien – Legendary underling
Though Tiphanie still greatly misses the family she lost, she’s able to find an almost father-like comfort in Aurelien, despite the fact that she’s a mob boss. Having someone who understands her situation and is there to look out for her is just nice.
Aya – Finds safety around
While Tiphanie was more quickly made aware of Aya’s brutal nature as opposed to Aurelien’s due to Aya not hiding it, she still appreciates that Aya helped give her a place after she lost everything.
Amalthea – Admires
Tiphanie feels a sort of reverence towards Amalthea, compared to her more casual perception of Aurelien. Still, she realizes that Amalthea is dedicated to preserving her safety, and because of that, she deeply admires her.
Trivia
- She mostly just uses her ‘divine authority’ over Aurelien and Amalthea to ask them to grab stuff for her.
- She has a very impressive kandi collection.
- When Angie goes to confront Aurelien, Tiphanie is purposefully left in the dark on the grounds that ‘they’d probably get along too well’.
- She’s rarely involved in mafia activities, but when she is, she’s apparently an excellent distraction.
