For other uses of the name, see Tama (Disambiguation).

Tama is a friendly pet sphinx from Whitebeard's home island Sphinx. It is owned by Oide.[1]

Appearance[]

As a sphinx, Tama resembles a lion with a humanoid face, sharp fangs, feathers along its back and arms, and a bushy mane which has a tuft of hair at the top that stands-up right. Unlike the sphinx in Impel Down, Tama is notably smaller, only being about three times larger than Marco.[1]

Personality[]

Tama seems to be a friendly creature who loves its owner, Oide.[1]

Abilities and Powers[]

Being a sphinx, along with its large size, might indicate that it is quite strong; however, it is never seen fighting. It also does not seem to be capable of mimicking speech yet. Normally it seems to be capable of flight with its wings; however, it is injured and needs to rest before it can fly again.[1]

History[]

Wano Country Arc[]

In Whitebeard's homeland, Tama was being healed by Marco after it suffered several injuries. After Marco tended to its wounds, Oide thanked the doctor and they went on their way.[1]

Trivia[]

  • Tama means "ball" in Japanese and is commonly used as a name for cats in Japan.
