Tikkes was a male Quarren senator who represented his homeworld Mon Calamari in the Galactic Republic's Senate around the time of the Invasion of Naboo. During the Separatist Crisis he defected to the Confederacy of Independent Systems, being replaced in the Republic Senate by the Quarren loyalist Tundra Dowmeia. At the end of the Clone Wars, Tikkes and the rest of the Separatist Council were slaughtered by Darth Vader on the volcanic Outer Rim world Mustafar.
