Tazsia ?????? (more commonly known as Taz) also known by her Skorpe handle, perniciousOverkill, is one of the trolls in Vast Error. Her associated alchemic sigil is Platinum and her horns are long and winding. She wears her symbol on the back of her vest.
She is a well-known member of a wrestling-based cult known as Mirthamaniacs. Her chucklevoodoo holds the power of 'Intimidation' and is constantly active, shown through the purple glints in her pupils.
She was the second troll introduced.
Biography
Six Sweeps
Not much is currently known about who Taz was or what she did at six sweeps. However, we do know that according to Arcjec, she ruined his life by doing something that ended up changing him into who he is today.
It can be inferred that this had something to do with her punching him in the face; when Arcjec began to run away crying from Taz's hive near the end of Act 1, his nose was bleeding rather heavily. When discussed, Taz shows a very stubborn and upset attitude towards the subject. However, you can see that she does have tears in her eyes in the panel if you look close enough. Showing she does potentially regret the incident.
Pre-game
During the Game
Taz has not currently been shown to have entered the game.
Personality and Traits
Taz is a notably angry, headstrong and determined troll who tends to not think about her actions rather than just doing what she feels is best in the moment. This way of thinking has definitely caused her more harm than good, and has seemingly ruined and puts a lot of strain on her relationships with the exception of Albion, who is somehow able to pacify her seething disposition. Not even Taz really knows how she does this.
She has a habit of getting belligerent verbally and physically along with throwing insults when provoked or annoyed and she generally doesn't seem to understand simple concepts in a conversation like jokes or banter. Taz finds aspects like these to be stupid and bothersome, just like many other things (most notably her real name for reasons unknown.) She also hates to be interrupted when speaking, especially if it's about something she finds important. Taz tends to refuse to ask her other friends for help, stubbornly doing tasks herself even if she doesn't know how to do it properly. Though she tends to think she does a pretty good job afterward, also refusing to admit when she is wrong. Which is heavily shown throughout her conversations with Arcjec in Act 1.
There are moments when she will yield to her conversation partner, though this is normally only if she finds the issue to be trivial or she is tired of dealing with it and knows her efforts will end up being futile in the end regardless.
Relationships
Albion Shukra
Albion is in a Moraillegence with Taz, although their relationship appears fluctuate part-time into Auspisticism with Occeus on occasion. Taz has specifically stated that she does not share Albion's religious beliefs, and more or less thinks of them to be horseshit. This is likely due to to Taz's own beliefs within the Mirthamaniacs.
Taz has also stated that she finds Albion to be a "special kind of scary" and "perfect". Which may or may not be foreshadowing to events yet to come.
Arcjec Voorat
Arcjec and Taz have had a difficult relationship since the comic started. Stemming from their largely difficult past and assumedly unrealized romantic entanglements. There are many indications that their relationship was at one point abusive or unrequited; mutually or otherwise. Though neither of these points have been directly confirmed. After some kind of relationship-ending incident, Arcjec has since vehemently avoided any interaction with Taz over two sweeps while Taz has since desperately tried to reach out to Arcjec. The resulting fallout has evidently deeply affected Arcjec, with Arcjec having displayed a drastic change in personality and demeanor.
When the two are forced to interact with one another during the events of the game, the two are constantly at each other's throats, barely being able to stay civil with one another even for the sake of their mutual survival. Despite this, even though it is very slight, they did have a couple moments of levity and have been shown to complete their goals as a team rather efficiently all things considered.
Occeus Coliad
Taz occasionally fluctuates into the ashen quadrant with Occeus, with Albion acting as mediator. This would indicate some enmity between the two.
Ellsee Raines
It is implied that Taz and Ellsee have black feelings for one another, as indicated by this page.
Trivia
- 'pernicious' means to have a harmful effect on someone, most often in a gradual or subtle way. 'Overkill' is commonly used as a term of excessive action or treatment. When combined, the two terms form a reference to Taz's history with Arcjec, destroying something about him in a manner that has left him a changed person to how he was at 6 sweeps. It can also refer to her brutal interest in combat, especially with her torture device collection.
- Her preferred name of 'Taz' is near-identical to actual professional wrestler Tazz, albeit with a different spelling.
- Taz's pet rock "The Rock" is obviously named after Dwayne 'The Rock' Johnson. Who she actually has a poster of in her respiteblock, along with Vince McMahon (in his famous 'IT'S ME AUSTIN' speech, no doubt as a reference to austinado) and Hulk Hogan.
- Taz likes to eat steak and presumably other forms of meat raw.
- Taz does, in fact, drink Faygo, which to Mirthamaniacs is known as 'Pinfall Fuel'. Her favorite flavor is Peach.
- The wrestler Taz murdered in her first Fort Match and reassembled with concrete is famed WWE all-star Kane.
