Taurus
Background
Taurus is a member of a group of New Primitives.
During the events of Rats: Night of Terror (1984) played by OMassimo Vanni
Kurt and a group of people consisting of Chocolate, Taurus, Video, Myrna, Lucifer, Deus, Duke, Diana, Noah and Lilith drive their vehicles into the ruins of a city. Eventually Kurt decides they can stop for the night, and the group enters a building and begins to search it. Kurt tells Video to scout one side of the bar and Video spots a rat. The group continues to search the building, and enter a room with large green boxes in the center and some beds against the wall. Noah uses a spear to pry open the boxes and finds it filled with packaged food and cans. The rest of the group begins to excitedly open up the rest of the boxes, stopping to eat some of the food when they come across it. Myrna pulls back the sheet on one of the beds in the room and screams as she discovers underneath the sheet is a body being eaten by Rats. Taurus and Video search the bar area and Video throws a bottle at a rat. While searching the building, Taurus corners a rat with a broom inside a group of fallen chairs, and when Duke sticks his hand in the chairs it jumps at him and bites him. The entire group goes to the greenery and Noah explains to Kurt the group of people they found dead had discovered an artificial way to produce what used to be grown in the outside and he explains how the purifier purifies rain water. The dead bodies are gathered from around the building, piled up outside and burned. Taurus is having a hard time falling asleep due to Lilith and Lucifer having sex next to him in their sleeping bag. Taurus tells Lucifer to move elsewhere, and Kurt orders Lucifer outside of the room. When Lucifer tries to unzip the sleeping bag, he finds the zipper to be stuck. Taurus unzips the sleeping bag for them and Lucifer and Lilith leave to have sex in another room. The group that was sleeping run towards Lilith’s screams and find her dead in the sleeping bag, but with no apparent wounds. They blame Lucifer for murdering Lilith by strangling her, until a rat climbs its way out of Lilith’s mouth. Kurt, who is holding a flame thrower, sets Noah on fire, who is covered in rats, and Noah runs outside before collapsing on the ground. Taurus and Chocolate follow Kurt to the greenery area, and once they open the door, they find it full of rats. Deus runs up to Kurt and tells him that he found Lucifer but he is dead. The group goes to Lucifer’s body and Kurt incinerates it. Taurus tells the group they are stuck because the rats chewed through the vehicle tires. Kurt angrily punches Taurus and blames him for not guarding the vehicles. Duke blames Kurt for their problems and accuses him of blaming others and not himself. Kurt then blames Lucifer and Lilith’s deaths on them having left alone. Duke tries to usurp power from Kurt, but Chocolate implores them to stick together. Kurt challenges Duke to a duel, but Duke backs down. Kurt orders everyone to find items to barricade the room with the beds inside. The group barricades the rooms with the beds inside. Taurus tells a story of a time when rats attacked the cave he and his family were living in, but only stole and ate the food. Diana is standing next to an un-barricaded area, when she is attacked by rats. Kurt, Taurus, Deus and Video go to the greenery to get water for Diana's wounds, while Chocolate, Duke, and Myrna stay behind with Diana. Kurt, Taurus, Video and Deus go to the water purifier but find it to be full of rats. The group retreats to the stairs, but Kurt’s flame thrower goes out. He orders Taurus, Video, and Deus to follow him up the stairs in single file line. As he is walking up the stairs, Taurus is attacked by a rat and falls down the stairs and is swarmed by rats and killed.
