Born in the fiercely independent region of Tlaxcala around 1497, Tlahuicole's exceptional martial skills quickly earned him a reputation as a force to be reckoned with. From his pivotal role in the Tlaxcaltec Civil War to his unparalleled prowess in the ritual Flowering Wars, Tlahuicole's strategic brilliance and unmatched combat abilities set him apart.
