Tika, a Coruscanti foundling, was manipulated by Darth Caedus as a decoy. This was part of his scheme in 40 ABY to abduct his daughter, Allana, from Hapes. Her role was to stand in for Allana. Tika provided Prince Isolder with the datachip containing Caedus's ultimatum to Tenel Ka: either the Hapans rejoin the Galactic Alliance's war, or Allana's life would be taken. Caedus pledged that if Tika fulfilled this task, he would abandon her on Hapes, a world filled with countless attractive women, one of whom might become her adopted mother. Similar to Allana, she possessed red hair and likely shared a superficial resemblance to the Chume'da.
