Character Sheet for Taro
Character Description
A Zora with a rather unusual penchant for the cold, Taro does not live in Zora's Domain, or anywhere near the Lanayru Province. He resides in the cold lands of Hebra, feeling at home in the snow-covered region, where he gathers furs and gems to trade with the Rito craftsmen.
Personality
Unlike the more prim and proper Zora of Lanayru, Taro is a more laid back lone wolf type. He isn't one to usually accept help, wearing his accessories only because he wants to make sure the Rito feel at ease. He seems to gain strength from the cold and snow, being more energetic when snowstorms happen. He is proud in his hunter-gatherer abilities, and has gathered many things from the bottom of ice covered rivers.
Likes/Dislikes
Likes: snow, cold temperatures, mining for gemstones, swimming
Dislikes: warm temperatures, fire, wolves, Frost Taluses, dealing with other Zoras trying to make him return to the domain
Background/History
Growing up at around the same age as Sidon, Taro never found comfort in the warm zone of Lanayru. Despite Mount Lanayru providing a chilly respite, he found it too small and treacherous to traverse. During a trip to the Tabantha region, he quickly acclimated to its cooler temperatures and decided to move out once he had enough supplies.
His journey would take him further north until he found a place in the Hebra mountains, being met with concern from the local Rito due to his lack of cold protection. Despite initial conflict, he eventually took their offer for some protection, but took only half of their offerings. The headdress was applied to only one headfin, and the pants were trimmed at the shin, leaving only his lower legs covered in anything. From there he'd become a bit of a local legend due to the fact no Zora had ever wandered the mountains so freely.
Relatives/Family
His family resides in the Lanayru Province like all other Zora.
