Appearance
Taft stands on the shorter side of average height of 5'4" with a lithe, yet toned build. While he has very little in the way of muscle, what little he does have is apparent from his life as a performer in Nestra. His hair is a soft sea-foam green that sits comfortably on his head, reaching down to the middle of his neck. His eyes are kind and caring, the sky blue hue portraying this carelessly. While not sickly so, his skin is quite pale and clear in complexion. The clothes he wears are light and airy, allowing him to move freely and comfortably while still being covered almost completely.

Personality
Taft is one of the most sweet and caring people ever. He'd do anything to make anyone around him smile, even at the cost of his own comfort or happiness. He would be the first to lend a hand to anyone when they need help with anything he can help with. Ever the 'mom friend,' Taft will give up his own food or bed or money for anyone truly in need. Despite his caring nature, he is not so gullible as to be taken advantage of.
Always the first to lend a kind smile or understanding ear, he's often seen as quite the ray of hope and positivity. Taft makes sure to keep up a happy face even when everyone else is down in their own gloom. He feels that there is light and hope in any situation, so long as you have the will to look for it.
Despite his general happiness, he has a constant nagging fear in the back of his head that he's not as helpful or useful as he'd like to be. Very insecure of his abilities, he always tries very hard to live up to the expectations he has set for himself. Most of the time he keeps these feelings in check, but there are occasions when he lets his negative self-image get the better of him and his smile falters.
Biography/History
Taft was born to one of the many performing women of the Opera House in Cyrkensia. Never knowing who his father was, he grew up with more mothers than practically anyone in the world. All of the women of the Opera House were more than happy to help out with and look after Taft as he grew up.
Taking after his mother, and all of the others, he learned happily how to dance and sing and play instruments, even though he never performed on the stage himself. Because of this, he spent all of his alone time honing his own skills, often finding some place to be alone to dance around, sing or play his instruments. Through his practice, he found that he had quite the affinity for playing instruments. Any instrument he picked up he could easily teach himself to play. After this realization, he began to dance and sing just a bit less to focus on learning how to play. His mother and the other dancers of the Opera House always told him there was some kind of reinvigorating and magical quality to his playing that just filled them with energy.
As he got older, he'd go out and travel the streets, prancing about playing his piccolo to bring a smile to everyone's face he passed. Over the years, he has made something of a name for himself around the streets as the 'sweet little Bard boy who likes to play music for us' among the citizens all over the city. Still living in the Opera House, he can often be found assisting the women with their makeup, hair or outfits before they go on to perform, often getting a small song from Taft beforehand for good luck.
Still today he can often be found somewhere in the city by the echo of the music from his piccolo resounding along the streets and alleys when he isn't at the Opera House with his mother.
