Analysis

This character analysis section may not be accurate to every player's experience.

Tatiana is recruited in Act 4 at Nuibaba's abode and recruiting her also lets the player recruit Zeke. Tatiana joins near the end of the game as a level 1 Saint and while her bases are not terrible, they will likely be much lower than the stats of your army at that point in the game. Still, unlike most Est-type units Tatiana is easy enough to train up and has good enough returns that she is given a considerable amount of investment even on faster playthroughs. This is because she has access to the excellent Seraphim spell which lets her secure kills and is useful in Act 5, physic at base, as well as excellent spells like warp and Fortify. Warp in particular allows you to complete Act 5 maps much faster when combined with Silque's access to warp and Cleric Faye's rescue, not to mention how she is a great user of the mage ring. She can also become a solid offensive unit after getting a few levels thanks to her good offensive growths, poor resistance of most enemy units and being a great counter to enemy magic users thanks to her sky high resistance. Still, she does not have that many maps to be useful in and her low base level and poor durability hold her back immensely making her notable needed investment seem too much when compared to your likely fully trained up army at that point. Still, if the player does decide to give investment to Tatiana they will get an excellent unit in Act 5 that is much better than most Est-type units.

Personality and character

Like many characters in Gaiden there is little detailed characterization. Though it is evident that Tatiana and Zeke deeply care for each other, especially demonstrated by her kidnapping causing Zeke to serve Rigel. Tatiana wants Zeke to stay with her, and Zeke seems to feel the same way, despite recovering his memories. Shadows of Valentia expands on her character as a good-natured, amiable, and selfless person who can also be clumsy.

Ending

Gaiden

If Zeke survived
She lives on happily with Zeke, all the while praying that his memories shall never return.

If Zeke died
When Zeke died, she lost her most beloved person. In overwhelming grief, she cut off her hair.

If Zeke survived
Tatiana prayed that Zeke's memory would remain hazy, and the two eventually did live something of a happy life. Though they were parted at times, Zeke always returned to Tatiana's side in the end.

If Zeke died
Her true love lost, Tatiana holed up in her priory and devoted herself to prayer. One old friend could not bear to see her alone in such a way, and he made it a point to woo her. Eventually, his efforts overcame her grief, and they were wed.
