Tao is an expert sorceress, a woman in charge, and can lay ten kinds of ass-whipping upon you if you don’t watch your back! She joins the Shining Force in the very beginning of Max’s adventure, and stays loyal until the end. She’s a cute elven girl with bright pink hair and a cheery attitude, but her opponents wouldn’t know it after having their flesh burned off by one of her powerful magic spells. Or if that tactic doesn’t work, she can always put her enemies to sleep and THEN burn them into crispy bits. Either way, Tao’s a hell of a fighter and a dueller, and she can easily prove herself in Light.
