In childhood, Taura generally prefered being on her own. When she was six, at a routine eye apointment, was diagnosed with farsightedness. This meant she had to get glasses. Despite this, she kept living without any impairment. She exceeded in school and other activities, but had difficulties in the social department, being very shy. She and Cordelia would often hang around each other, especially after Seraphina was diagnosed with a UV allergy and pulled out of school. Cordelia looked up to Taura because of her smarts, and Taura appreciated that Cordelia was willing to handle any social interactions.

When Taura was 8, *The Crow* by Jenny Valheimer was released, and Taura checked it out from her school's library. She fell in love with the series, which only opened her to the world of fiction and books, picking up books like *Harry Potter* by J.K. Rowling, *Percy Jackson* by Rick Riordan, *How to Train Your Dragon* by Cressida Cowell, and other series.

Throughout her teens, Taura became less shy, but still kept to herself. She was the kind of student to do all the work on a group project. She worked very hard and excelled throughout middle and high school, and even helped Seraphina reintegrate into public schooling. She never joined any clubs at all and had very few friends. Part of her was saddened by this, but she ususally thought little of it.

Despite this, Taura, even if she didn't realize it, she was very empathetic and kind. When she was 14, a student she didn't know had a panic attack. She comforted them and helped them through it, then walked them through their emotions. They greatly appreciated her help, and the two became friends.
