2. Personality
Taro, once skiddish and soft spoken as a child, grew into a brave adult. He is calm and focused through all of his endeavors and has a notoriously sweet charm to him. There is hardly a mean bone to him. He fights out of necessity and not from pleasure and practices diligently every day. The fear that once held him practically mute in the face of strangers has dissolved. With some trepidation, he can speak to others with a smile upon his face with no worries. His confidence was boosted by the loving Chloe Moineau, whom fell for him much like he fell for her. He still has a soft ego though, harsh words slicing through him. The thoughtfulness that makes him so sweet, is a double edged blade and makes him worry consistently about things that he could not possibly control. This behavior has been getting better, but occasionally he falls into spells of nervousness and confusion despite his blooming confidence. When things get stressful, he often needs to talk himself out of it and push himself into action. Taro has an affinity with animals and it is not uncommon for him to take in small creatures briefly and nurse them back into good health. He is embarrassed about this little habit because he believes some will not think he's wolf enough. He is occasionally foolishly brave though when it comes to the defense of his pack and family. A powerful, fierce side can come into him when family is in danger and he is willing to give his all to protect them. He isn't afraid to make harsh decisions in that scenario either. If killing is a required factor, Taro would be unafraid to commit it if it meant his family would be safe.

5. History
Taro Kurosoul was born December 1st, 2012, to Palaydrian Soul and Jiva Takekuro with his brother, Tyris Kurosoul within Vinatta. Initially, he was a timid thing keeping close to his parents with the oddness of being raised with a fox as a brother. Taro was strong though, despite his quiet attitude and soon received his Frithr necklace as he entered into a more active part of his pack. His simple family happiness stutters when his father is swept out to sea and disappears, he becomes more reserved and clings to his mother, who struggles with her own problems as she raises the boys.
Growing steadily, it looked as though his path was set into the quiet life of an Eljun. Though, once he received his adult rank he began to open up more. He found he only had eyes for Chloe Moineau and quickly became attached to her and her to him. Slowly, he grew in confidence and bravado eventually striking out to save his then pregnant mother from a supposedly rabid rogue. It is then when he realizes he wants to be an Araedi and defend his family from those that seek to harm them. He makes a mentor out of Bran Stormbringer and ascends to the rank of a warrior and protector.
He gains a little sibling later, Dagr Soul, whom he loves, though the boy’s father, Aedan de Valence, earns a dark spot in the warrior’s heart. Despite his light demeanor, the protector isn’t apt to forgive the Salsolan spy.
He continues to grow, shedding his cowardly shell and officially becomes mates with Chloe. It isn’t without spats and their romance blossoms. From this love, they have three pups that are the light of Taro’s life. Near the same time, his mother has another litter with his mentor, adding four siblings to his life. Taro is happy and content and reaching for more as he springs into his second year.
