Taurus is one of the twelve auracites. It is originally in the hands of machinist Besrudio Bunansa, who had found the stone at an excavating site in the Clockwork City of Goug. Cardinal Alphonse Delacroix, being possessed by the Lucavi inside the Scorpio Stone and seeking to claim Taurus for himself, hires the Baert Trading Company to relieve Besrudio of the artefact. They have Besrudio in custody when his son, Mustadio, arrives with Ramza Beoulve and try to liberate him.
Besrudio tells his son to look in a chimney, where a stone is found and exchanged for Besrudio's freedom. The stone is a fake, and then gives Ramza the real Taurus Stone. Ludovich Baert pays for the impostor's stone with his life.
Taurus is also a zodiac sign used to determine damage compatibility between characters during battle. Taurus has optimal compatibility with Scorpio, good compatibility with Virgo and Capricorn, and bad compatibility with Aquarius and Leo. In the Ivalician calendar system, the month of Taurus lasts 31 days and corresponds with the April 20 to May 20 of the real world Gregorian calendar.
