Tira began her life as an assassin for a group known as the Birds of Passage. She enjoyed her work so much, that she'd even go kill for the pleasure of it. During one of her missions, though, Tira was caught in the middle of a storm. This wasn't an ordinary storm, it was the Evil Seed raining down on her. It caused Tira to forget where she belonged, wandering around aimlessly searching for herself. A family took her in, but Tira was unhappy there, and recalled the satisfaction of killing, ending the family's lives. Tira then came in contact with Nightmare and she willingly became his servant. Nightmare gave her the task of finding a suitable host for Soul Edge to reconcile inside of.

Game Appearances

Soul Calibur III - Tira's emotions were extremely unstable after the storm. She could go from rage to sorrow to happiness easily, depending on her odd mood. Tira would then seek someone who shared her personality, hoping to find a friend as she felt alone in the world. She happened to come across Nightmare using a trail of bodies, and he took her in. Using a flock of faithful ravens and her abilities as an assassin, Tira is to carry out two missions assigned by Nightmare: To destroy Soul Calibur and free Soul Edge, and to locate a decent host for the cursed sword. Tira would have those worthy hosts burned by the flame of the cursed sword, and kill the unworthy to have her own joy.
