Tiff is among the most developed and prominent characters in ''Kirby: Right Back at Ya!'' due to being the main speaking character of the show and the closest ally of Kirby. She is portrayed as being highly intelligent and resourceful, often outclassing the adults of [[Dream Land (anime)|Dream Land]]. In addition, she is a fountain of knowledge in all manner of subjects, mainly concerning the natural sciences and mathematics. As such, she is often the one left to explain the various situations that occur in the episodes, and is also often responsible for forming plans to solve the main conflicts of the show, as well as giving Kirby advice in battle. Over the course of the show, King Dedede and Escargoon come to understand how pivotal Tiff is to Kirby's success, and as such, do whatever they can to belittle and hinder her.

Counterbalancing Tiff's intelligence is her short temper and naivete, which demonstrates that despite her knowledge, she is still young and inexperienced. This particularly shows when King Dedede and Escargoon succeed at getting on her nerves, and can sometimes result in putting Kirby in danger, due to not always understanding how to handle him. Tiff is also very prone to making mistakes when she is annoyed or angry, which leads her to sometimes accuse Kirby of things he did not do, an example being in [[The School Scam]]. In order to help Tiff regain composure and offer her the wisdom she needs, Tiff frequently receives aid from her main mentor [[Meta Knight (anime)|Meta Knight]], who tries his best to offer suggestions and hints to Tiff rather than just giving her the answer, in hopes that she will better herself by working it out on her own. Tiff also has a healthy rapport with the other senior members of Dream Land, most notably [[Professor Curio]] and [[Mabel]], who she looks up to as role models. Notably, despite their usual animosity toward one another, even Escargoon will sometimes seek Tiff's help when circumstances lead to the two of them sharing a cause or a problem.

Tiff is extremely protective of the people and things she cares about, and can be considered activistic. She is not afraid to berate anybody who she believes to be in the wrong, even if that person is pointing a weapon at her. Due in part to her noble status and in part to her own personal quirks, Tiff is also extremely proud, which is often used against her by her opponents. Despite this weakness, Tiff is typically able to recover quickly, and always tries her best to keep an optimistic point of view. To help her with this, she relies on Kirby's persistent cheerfulness, as well as the strength of her other friendships.

* [[Sir Ebrum]] & [[Lady Like]]: Tiff has a positive relationship with her parents, but has little in common with them, aside from sharing a temper with her mother. Perhaps most notable is the fact that neither of her parents appear to be very responsible for her, often leaving Tiff to fend for herself.

* [[Meta Knight (anime)|Meta Knight]]: Meta Knight serves as a crucial mentor and ally to Tiff, particularly when she is in trouble with something that involves Kirby or King Dedede. His extremist methods of teaching and discipline often rub Tiff the wrong way, however, and sometimes she becomes upset with him over his more cold-hearted remarks. Despite this, his hints are often crucial to Tiff solving an issue she is faced with, particularly when it comes to understanding Kirby's needs and how best to assist him.

* [[King Dedede (anime character)|King Dedede]]: There is no character Tiff dislikes more than King Dedede. She is openly critical of his goals, and knows perfectly well that most of the things Dedede does are schemes to harm Kirby or the environment of Dream Land. Dedede also knows that there is little that Tiff can do directly to stop him most of the time, and so he regularly taunts and teases her.
