Taggart

Taggart (Tehg, literally meaning "Dark") is the spirit guardian of Damion Battosai's first Descension, Dark Damion. He is never mentioned or has appeared in the series, but will be included in a short story, detailing Damion's training for this form.

Background
Born as a Vampire on the planet Bloodfall, Taggart survived the rough conditions through sheer will and power alone. This continued for several years until Sivor Battosai took notice of him and recruited Taggart into his force.

After many wars and battles had been won, the planet and its inhabitants were threatened with their existance by a man named Vieg Neun. Wanting to protect Sivor, as he had grown to see the man as a father-figure, Taggart defended him until his last breath and was sent into the Great Beyond.



It was not long after until The Creator approached him, offering Taggart a chance to live again and defend Sivor's descendant, who was later to be revealed as Damion Battosai. He then sealed into the depths of Darkness, awaiting the moment to unleash his power and help Damion. When the time came, as Damion was preparing to fight the mercenary known as Alban, Damion was sent into the reaches of his own consciousness, where he met Taggart. Without a moment's hesitation, Taggart attacked Damion, coaxing him to release the power hidden inside him, and was then ready to use Dark Damion.

Appearance
Taggart appears as a tall, tanned-skin male with long black hair that reaches his waist and crytal-white eyes. On the lower half of his body are a pair of ragged dark pants and a white belt that holds them up through thick, white rings at the hem. He wears no shoes of shirt, and on his chest is dark brown tattoo that is marked with Sivor's blood (an initation rite when he joined his force). Covering his right hand is a black mark, and a metal wristlet. On his upper arm is a piece of black armor, which he obtained after coming from the Great Beyond. Flat against the right shoulder of his back is a short-sword, used against Damion, proving very useful against his longer, broader weapon.

Personality
Taggart is a calm (albeit loud) and intimidating man. Under the rule of Sivor, he was a silent individual, but grew more boisterous in preparation for the meeting with Damion, suspecting that he needed to jeer and tease the man to bring out his powers.

In battle, he allows his instinct for battle to take over his and Damion's consciousnesses, resulting in the feral-like motions that Dark Damion takes while unleashed.

Abilities
Military/Survival Instinct: During his fight with Vieg and Damion, he showed unprecedented skill in dodging their attacks, even to the point of annoying Vieg and angering Damion.

Enhanced Agility: Later, when Damion was training for the form of Pitch Damion, he demonstrated extremely-swift sidestepping techniques and counter-blows, even when the latter was in the first form of Descension.

Darkness: During both battles with Damion, he was equal in magick-power, able to force his opponent into numerous deadlocks and even overwhelming Damion with countless barrages of Dark waves.

Accelerated Healing: Because of his spirit form, he can regenerate and regrow any part of his body, making so that the attack literally "never happened". He also shows a high tolerance for pain, as he showed no signs of pain whenever Damion actually managed to strike him.
