Despite this, she has proven her self as a more than capable, acting both as AEGIS' second in command and as their tactical specialist. She appears to be a woman in her early twenties, standing at 5'6" with a slender, yet finely muscular build. Her most striking and identifiable feature is her light blue skin and features. This is due to the fact that she is the member of an elf like race known as the Ghiacio, originally from the frozen wastelands of a planet named Gerro, a planet on the fringes of the Continous. Taloria is notorious for how shy she is when not on a mission; she rarely speaks up when in a group, particularly when people she is unfamiliar with are present, usually she prefers to either stay beside Adrien or otherwise in the background. However, when on a mission or in battle, she takes definite charge, speaking up to give directions and orders as needed (though still with the occasional stutter or pause). Despite this, she still doesn't speak unless she needs to when active, preferring instead to let her actions speak for her. Taloria possesses almost superhuman speed, above normal strength, and an incredible tactical mind that makes her ideal as both the teams tactician and one of the team's strike members. In battle she is quiet, but her actions are fierce and defiant, speaking louder than she believes she ever could. She is the only member of AEGIS who does not wield a weapon of any kind, instead, Taloria prefers to rely on her martial prowess and her knowledge of many different martial arts styles, which she has over the years slowly formed into her own ever evolving unique fighting style. She is also a quick thinker, able to change her strategy on the fly is something goes wrong, and will instruct the others in what to do if she is asked. She also, due to her race's origin in the frozen lands of the world of Gerro, has a natural resistance to cold weather and other cold or ice based effects, and is also predisposed to living in cold temperatures, often keeping the temperature in her quarters far below what her few friends consider comfortably cool. She does not like exceedingly hot times of year or places, with some rare exceptions. ==History== Taloria's history isn't a particularly amazing one, compared to many others. She was born to Tau Arin and Theta Marc Carri, originally outsiders made into Eternals Though she appears in her twenties, she is actually a little over 3000 years old. She has always been a quiet girl, excelling in both schooling and work, but never really making any friends. She constantly longed for some kind of excitement in her life, but never really explored much due to often not feeling comfortable around others. At the behest of her parents, she attempted to make friends, but due to her awkwardness in social situations, she largely failed, with one exception - she did manage to somewhat befriend the one known as [[Jamie Coralden]]. It was during the time that she met Jamie that she first took up learning how to fight, originally as more of an exercise than anything else. However, after seeing her practice one day, Jamie suggested that the usually quiet and collected woman take part in one of the upcoming fighting tournaments that are occasionally held within the city. Taloria reluctantly agreed, and entered the next day. As she participated, she began to enjoy the tournament, and the moment she found out about another one, signed up. She had finally found the excitement she had been looking for. After the death of Jamie's friend Rhemy, the two grew distant. Taloria continued to sharpen both her mind and body, eventually becoming an Omicron, and one of the higher ranked tournament goers. It as the surprise attack on the Eternal City by Vire that was, as with many others, the major turning point in her life. Her parents both died in the attack, her father before her very eyes. This caused her to become more withdrawn than she had previously been, shutting herself off from the world around her almost entirely. She was visited shortly after her parent's funeral by Jamie. He, in an attempt to get her to open up to the world again, introduced her to the few friends he had, including the AEGIS team, and in particular, [[Adrien Dalen]]. Slowly in the months after Vire's attack, she began to open again. She was devastated once again, however, by the news after the AEGIS team returned form their first mission that Jamie was missing in action. Attending the funeral for the three fallen or missing members of the AEGIS squad, Taloria again met Adrien, who was also reeling form the loss of his friends. They were brought together by their mutual loss and depression, and quickly became friends. They would stay friends for a long while, helping each other recover from their losses, Taloria even unofficially aiding Adrien on a solo mission before he finally recruited the second AEGIS squad. When it was suggested to Adrien that he recruit Taloria for his new team, he was extremely hesitant, not wanting to put arguably the most important person in his life into direct danger. He eventually agreed, however, officially recruiting Taloria before anyone else, making her his second in command and the team's tactical specialist. The two grew even closer as they worked together, eventually becoming romantically involved, an event which culminated in Adrien giving her a pendant of her favourite gemstone, unsurprisingly, a sapphire. She continues to work with the team, still shy and somewhat withdrawn, but stepping up when she needs to.
