For those who actually defeat these creatures, a horn and wing can sometimes be recovered – although neither is particularly demanded by crafters. Perhaps the most desired item sometimes carried by the Tauri is a Fomor Codex, which is said to contain the tragic history of the Fomors. While illegible, some might wonder why the Tauri carry copies – and whether they had anything to do with such a history.

Historical Background
Taurus is Latin for "Bull" (Tauri would be the plural form in Latin). The name more then likely originates from the large bull like horns found on all Tauri.
