Tiana von Riegan (pronounced: /tiˈɑnə/[key]; Japanese: ティアナ Tiana) is a non-playable character mentioned in Fire Emblem: Three Houses; she is the daughter of Duke Oswald Riegan, the head of House Riegan in the Leicester Alliance.
Biography
Tiana is the daughter of Duke Riegan,[1] the de facto leader of the Alliance. During her early years, she was very popular and loved by the nobles of the Alliance up until she mysteriously disappeared one day in Imperial Year 1160. Unbeknownst to the public, she left to Almyra to marry her beloved, the King of Almyra, who she had met in secret previously. In time, Tiana bore a child named Khalid in 1162.[2]
Years later, Godfrey von Riegan, Tiana's brother and heir to House Riegan, died in an accident[3]—some speculate the accident was caused by Count Gloucester in order to seize the Alliance's leadership for himself. Amidst the power vacuum, a sick Duke Riegan attempted to contact her daughter and eventually discovered she had son. In 1179, both Tiana and the King of Almyra gave Khalid their blessings, and he traveled to Fódlan to announce himself as the legitimate heir of House Riegan under the name Claude von Riegan, with Tiana herself remaining in Almyra.
Personality and character
While Tiana never appears in person, it is mentioned she is a very charming and eccentric woman prone to violence, which gave her the moniker of "Demon Queen" amongst Almyrans.
