Tao

Tao grew up in Drayord South, located in Haventown. He lived in an apartment with his parents, who were very loving. Tao also ended up meeting Sam (Scourge), at the age of 9 since Tao's parents would visit relatives in Arbaro Springs often. Sam was 5 years old at the time, and they both ended up having an inseperable friendship that lasted until Sam's mother died. Soon after that, Sam seemed to disappear off of the face of the planet. Tao was devastated to lose his best friend. Tao never felt quite right about his gender, and he grew up with a lot of confusion about what he was. By the age of 18, he finally underwent a sex change, surgery and all. His parents were actually very supporting of him, and he lived a rather easy life. Tao would often go out to raves, parties, and nightclubs, and he enjoyed the busy city life. By the time he was 17, he ended up getting a job as a DJ for a nightclub known as "The Den", located right on the border of Haventown and Arbaro Springs.

Tao would always spend his weekends camping in the forest. Despite his love for the city, he needed to get away from it every so often. One time when he went camping though, he was attacked by a certain familiar grizzly bear. It was Sam, who now went by Scourge. Despite both of them being drastically different now, they still recognized each other, and they were more than happy to be reunited. After a while, Tao and Scourge's bond had grown stronger, and the two of them slowly began to have feelings for each other. The two of them started dating, and they've been an odd couple for a long time now. Tao lives in Scourge's cave with him, and he still works at The Den.
