The limits of her physical strength are all but unknown, despite her not so impressive size. Aside from being brute force incarnate, Taura also has connection to Earth Elementals, thus being able to wield Earth based magic, in addition to Star Magic, befitting her nature as a Celestial Spirit of the highest order. She can also summon a set of combat equipment including an armor and a battle axe as well as chains, many, many chains. Furthermore, because she's likened to the legendary Minotaur of Crete, Taura has a perfect sense of direction, in other words, it's impossible for her to lose her way. Lastly, but not least, Taura can talk to any kind of bovine or similar animals and be comprehended/comprehending them clearly (i.e.: She can speak Cow Language).[/i][/color] [color=gold][b]♉ Personality:[/b][/color] [color=firebrick][i]Taura can be said to be cheerfulness incarnate, her only objective and her views of life revolve around having a good time at any time. She'll try to enjoy everything she does to the fullest, be it eating, fighting or any other things. In addition to fulfilling herself, Taura also takes great joy in trying to cheer others and make everyone's lives generally better. Because of that she can easily hit and hook up with pretty much anyone from demons and ghosts, to angels and fairies and be friends with them. She's insistent though and will keep on trying to make friends with people she likes until they give up and accept her around. It's really hard to push the Bull of Heaven aside when no restraint— physical or magical — can keep her at bay for long. However, don't take her cheerful personality for being dumb and forgiving. Like the Great Bull she's the embodiment of, Taura will not back off from a fight while she can keep going. This is further fueled by her sense of justice, which above all despises those who take the freedom and happiness away from others forcibly. Once Taura decides that you are her enemy, you can more or less write yourself as past history.[/i][/color] [color=gold][b]♉ Background:[/b][/color] [color=firebrick][i]Taura's story goes all the way back to the times of mankind's most ancient myths. In fact, the first mention of the Great Bull of Heavens was on the Epic of Gilgamesh, the oldest surviving epic poem in the known world. There, the Bull was a tool of revenge, summoned by a petty goddess, to lay waste to the kingdom of the most ancient hero. The Bull was creature of unstoppable might, impossible to be tamed or restrained except by the legendary Chains of Heavens. Being slain by the Hero, at the cost of his one true Friend's life, the Bull's demise was mourned by the gods and as a reward it was granted a place among the stars. Up to this day the ancient creature, almost as old as time itself, looks down upon the world, guarding it from its ultimate resting place. Similar legends of might bovines exist on other mythologies all around the world. The one that call for most attention being the Classical Greek Mythology, where the bulls were regarded as sacred animals and living symbols of Zeus, the King of the Olympians. This includes, obviously the most known of the bovine creature legends, the one of the Minotaur which was slain by the hero Theseus inside the labyrinth built by Daedalus, to keep the fearsome man-eater beast at bay. Either way, the past is the past, and doesn't matters that much. The fact is that Taura has longed to come down to the world once more and spread her rampage all over it... Except that the eons spent on the heavens made Taura wish for nothing but have fun and joy. That and the fact that Taura, while being related to was never one of those destructive beasts. She may be howdy but all of it is good intentioned, even if not exactly harmless, the whole time.[/i][/color] [color=gold][b]♉ Likes:[/b][/color] [color=firebrick][i]Wrestling, Good Food, Merry Times.[/i][/color] [color=gold][b]♉ Dislikes:[/b][/color] [color=firebrick][i]People who take others' Freedom, People who lack a sense of humor, Bad/Not enough food.[/i][/color] [color=gold][b]♉ Theme:[/b][/color] [color=firebrick][i].[/i][/color] [center] [youtube]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j0KnBHHOJ0k[/youtube] [/center]
