Cordian is a leading member of the Tiki Tak Tribe who appears in the boss level of the Factory, Feather Fiend.
It hypnotizes Colonel Pluck into making the Stompybot 3000 to squash Bananas, which power up the Tiki minions. When Donkey Kong and/or Diddy Kong appear, they are forced to battle Pluck. When he is defeated, Cordian rises up and Donkey Kong sends the tiki flying away. Later, it is seen with the rest of the hypnotic tikis by becoming part of one of Tiki Tong's hands.
Cordian's tune is Kalimba's base tune with an accordion playing in the background in the same fashion of Kalimba's tune.
