Tiffania

Tiffania Westwood Tudor of Albion (Pronunciation: /tɪfanɪə wɛstwud/) is a new character who first appears in Futatsuki no Kishi's last episode and becomes one of the central characters of Princess no Rondo.

Appearance
Tiffania has long blonde (goldish) hair and light blue eyes. At first, she wore a hat to cover her Elf ears but after people discovered that she was a Half-Elf, she stopped wearing her hat. Her breasts are often called to "debate" by many of the male characters in the series. Some of them include Guiche, Malicorne, and even Headmaster Osmond, as well as several of the woman who are considerably less endowed than her.

Personality
Tiffania is rather naive for her age. One example of this is when she asks Saito to check if her chest is real by touching them, which of course, got Saito into trouble with Louise and Siesta.

In the light novels, while Tiffa, at the beginning, was extremely pure, as she gets burned and learns, she slowly becomes more cynical and mindful of others' suffering and motives, until the point where she can detect other people's perving on her (though in the case of Saito, she finds no threat because she doesn't mind him perving on her, proof of her feelings/love for him) but also she becomes in tune with Louise's Tsun tendencies, and while not like Siesta who outright abuses it, becomes mindful of it for herself and those around her.

Background
Tiffania's biological parents are the Archduke de Albion and an elf. Tiffania is a half-elf, and probably has inherited Void magic through the royal bloodline of Albion. As of the light novel volume 19, she has yet to cast any elven magic, as any healing spell she has used so far came from a ring her mother left her. The ring was depleted of magic after healing Saito. Scarred from her horrifying childhood, her mother gave Tiffania a small and lonely cottage to live in.

Summary
Tiffania was referred to as a forest fairy by Louise and Saito. Living in shadows, Tiffania helped out many strangers in the forest, including Saito, and possibly Guiche (according to one of Guiche's stories).

However, in the light novels, Saito does ask himself if the nourishment from her body moved to her chest. Also, there were only three letters he could think of when he first saw Tiffania accidentally land on his lap.

Louise, as well as Siesta, feel jealous whenever Saito casually talks with Tiffania, as if he was making a move on her. This was because, when Saito returned to Tristain, bringing Tiffania with him and Louise, he said to her "I will protect you," something he also told Louise which Louise feels comfortable with, until that time. Unlike Saito's promise to Louise, though, which was because he truly loved her, Saito's promise, "I will protect you." to Tiffania was only due to eternal gratitude for resurrecting him, but Louise does not see this.

In the Light Novel, it was confirmed that Tiffania was a Void User, she was the Void User from Albion. However, in the anime, she refuses to reveal her childhood which she terribly does not want to remember. Also, Louise hints that fact when Sheffield asks for the "other Void user.", although she absolutely refuses to accept it because of Tiffania's kind personality, beautiful form and nice tone, she has no chance of winning Saito's heart. Despite all of this, she can (naively) ask Louise is she and Saito are lovers.

Although Tiffania likes Saito, it is not to the point of actually having true feelings for him, it is more like a close friendship because Saito was the first human of her age to accept her even if she was an elf and was not afraid of her (Elves were despised in Halkegenia at that time, until Tiffania's origins were revealed in the Academy and she makes friends after kindly forgiving the (previously) arrogant Beatrice despite the belief of elves showing no mercy to humans). In the Sleipnir Ball, she masquerades as Saito; Louise thought the one she saw was Saito, but looking a bit down, she saw a huge chest, because the magic did not seem to remove Tiffania's chest size, so she looks like a Saito with huge breasts. Upon arriving at the Academy, only Saito, Louise and the Ordine Knights knew that Tifa was a Half-Elf and agreed to keep it secret under the Princess's orders. But because she revealed her true roots, a jealous Beatrice chose to give herself a fake title of Bishop and gave Tiffania heresy inquiry, which required Tifa to step into a boiling pot of water.

Saito purposely begged to Beatrice for Tiffania's sake (and Louise, because she would be in trouble), but Beatrice refused and Tiffania told the latter that she was still a child, which enraged Beatrice even more. Then Saito drew his sword, and fought Beatrice's bodyguards. A then angry Louise (who was having a dream of her and Saito happily playing around a meadow shattered because of the noise) proceeded to make the whole battlefield explode. An already furious Beatrice snapped at Louise, while Louise calmly replied that only the Pope of Romalia can give the title of Bishop to someone else.

This embarrassment led Beatrice to beg for mercy at Tiffania's knees, but the latter just warmly hugged the crying Beatrice saying that she only wanted to make friends, not enemies. This incident led to Tifa having more suitors and more friends, but still keeps Saito and Louise as her closest friends.

In Volume 19, she was kidnapped by the elves sent to capture Saito as she arrived at his mansion to prepare to summon her own familiar, as they are interested in why there is a half-elf with Saito. The elves eventually found out Tiffania was a Void magic user and decided to give both her and Saito the same drug Tabitha's mother took in to make them lose their mind in order to incapacitate the human's assault on the elves. Saito and Tifa were rescued by one of the elves that was sent to capture them due to her own interest in finding out more about Saito's home world.

As Saito and Tifa fled they was stopped by the fiance of the elf that freed them. As Saito fought he was hit by a sleeping spell, and on the verge of sleep Tifa was told by Derflinger to flash Saito to wake him up. Tifa obliged without realising the consequence at the time, and was very embarrassed afterwards. Thanks to Tifa's help Saito overwhelmed the elf opposing them and managed to escape from the elves' Capital city safely.

In season four, Tiffania is told she is a void user by the Pope of Romalia, and is soon given the ring of Albion by Queen Henrietta. Henrietta states that since Tiffania is the last of Albion Royalty she is the true owner of the ring. Later Colbert-Sensei teaches Tiffania the familiar summoning spell, while doing so Saito appears from the gate this coincides with the light novels that Saito is a familiar to two void users. Also, her confused feelings for Saito are realized during the end of the first episode.
