Taurus (Gargoyles)

"This is for my father!"

- Taurus attacking Proteus in his cyclops form.

Taurus is a descendant of the Minotaur who lives in New Olympus. Though he has been capturing Elisa Maza, Taurus is not really a villain. Instead, he was the false antagonist of the episode "The New Olympians".

The New Olympians
Upon arriving at New Olympus, Taurus and the other hostile police members captured Elisa Maza, thinking the detective has been "trespassing the island". He and the other New Olympians are taken to the Senate House to know about why Elisa Maza is trespassing. He blames the loss of his original ancestor who was murdered by a human hero (Theseus). As Elisa caused a riots on the streets, Taurus yelled at the angry mob to stop attacking her. Elisa is arrested again and is sent to prison. As Taurus takes her to her prison cell, an angry crowd harassed Elisa. Taurus yells at the crowd to stop attacking. He told Helios to check on the pyrotechnic problems or Helios will lose his job.

The next day, Taurus arrives at the Columnadium when Proteus is causing damage to the computer system. Taurus punched him in the eye and Proteus reverted to his human form. He freed Elisa Maza and feels sorry for them and bid the Avalon World Tour a goodbye.

Seeing Isn't Believing
Taurus pursues Proteus in the apocryphal episode in New York City.
