Tauryu

On the surface, Tauryu appears to be nothing more than an ordinary café attendant at 'Cafe Forbidden.' Yet beneath that composed exterior lies a history stretching back centuries. Originally engineered as a weapon of war during the Qing Dynasty, this jiangshi was once devoid of humanity—until Hitomi Shiraga's great-grandmother reached the emptiness within him and awakened something profound. Transformed by that encounter, Tauryu pledged his eternal allegiance to the Shiraga lineage. Though reserved in speech and impeccably mannered, he conceals formidable combat prowess alongside a surprising mastery of cooking and household skills, making him Hitomi's most dependable protector in both peaceful days and perilous moments.
