This article has recently been converted to the new character-focused layout but it needs a lore enthusiast to help fill-out the sections. In addition, 'Relations trivia' and 'Lore trivia' have been moved here but need restructuring into article content - lore is no longer trivia. If you're eagar to help but would like to reference a completed character article: Aurelion Sol, Soraka, Jinx and Viego are excellent. |

Taric is host to the Aspect of the Protector, wielding incredible power as 
Runeterra's guardian of life, love, and beauty. Shamed by a dereliction of duty and exiled from his homeland of 
Demacia, Taric climbed 
Mount Targon to find redemption, only to discover a higher calling among the stars. Imbued with the might of a celestial being, the “Shield of Valoran” now stands ever vigilant, against any who would threaten the people of this world.

Relations
Garen was Taric's lifelong friend. His nobility status allowed him to keep Taric safe from being accused of high treason and executed.
- But even Garen (who still believed in Taric but deep down thought he was wasting his talents by fooling around) turned on Taric after Voidborn killed the Shield of Valoran's men, resulting in his banishment and sentence to the Crown of Stone by the Might of Demacia himself.
- Based on Sona's in-game voice lines, she has met Taric before his exile.
- Taric appreciates the beauty in all things ( music, life). His role as Aspect of the Protector, and especially past experiences, have made The Void his enemy.
