Taniwa

Taniwa is the Manipulator Artisan. Before the Indigo Flood, Taniwa led an army of pirates to collect treasure for her in Mertrope. Her arch enemy, Old Jones, controlled his own treasure-hungry crew. The two Artisans fought each other for many years

Taniwa also encountered the one called Fiddle Sticks. He soon became a very powerful mannequin, which cause Taniwa to panic and battle him. After her death, she took the identity of a Pan elder known as Tarsier and encountered Fiddle again, along with Groctopus and Quinlynn. She and Quinlynn reached a deal: if Quinlynn could train and army to defeat Taniwa and her followers, then the dead Pangolin of Fourth Island could come back to life once more. Shortly after this battle started, the Indigo Flood occured, and the only Pangolin who survived was a young occult magician named Cryptic.
