Taryn is a 17-year-old [[red panda]]. At 5'4" and 115lbs., he is a excellent definition of the term "''twink''", although in his family, that simply makes him the runt. He has a rather effeminate, girlish build, although his muscles are toned due to his dancing profession, especially his abs -- but he is not overly muscular. He has blond, medium-length, slightly messy headfur which he styles differently just about every day. He has light purple eyes, and his fur coloring pattern is the same as a typical red panda, boasting the long, exceptionally fluffy tail that the species is so famous for. The only exception is a small, white patch of fur on his right rump cheek, which is shaped curiously like a heart. Taryn's nose and paw pads are a light pink color.

He is an extremely outgoing, energetic, and optimistic [[red panda]]. Although his honest heart is generally seen as a good thing, it makes it difficult for him to lie or say "no", and he sometimes trusts people too easily. He tends to be rather gullible, slightly naive, and has a cute, child-like attitude which only helps to enforce the idea that he is much younger than he really is. Regardless of that, Taryn is strong-willed, yet indecisive, and tends to be completely submissive and a bit shy when it comes to relationships. He loves to play like a kid and have childish fun, and is passionate about '''video games''', especially [[Roleplaying game|RPG]] and '''music-rhythm''' games.

Taryn is an exceptionally talented '''dancer''', primarily in Japanese [[wikipedia:Para_Para|ParaPara]] dancing. Taryn is the leader of a particularly famous dance team, and has won several competitions at various night clubs. He is also gifted with powerful holy and healing-based magic, which explains his deep connection with spirituality, but he stays mostly quiet about it because of a fear that others will think of him as a freak. Taryn is also possesses the gift aeromancy, the ability to manipulate wind, as it is an ability passed down through his mother's bloodline.
