Height: 1,75m

His black hair also features grey and some white strands with dark blue tips that fade to a lighter royale blue, just like his feathers. His markings carry many shades from turquoise green to light sky blue and one might think that he stole a part of the Northern Lights to carry it on his fur. Taté wears a simple silver chain around his neck with an amber pendant that encloses his foster-mothers hair. His wings feature black outer and white inner feathers that get broken down by a small patch of black feathers and a row of turquoise green to light sky blue feathers.

Skills: AIR | GRADE 1 SOULANIMAL | Controls air, uses mostly white magic for healing and defending himself. If angered, he might loose his control and use black magic instead. He’s one of the rare Halfblood Daccardos, who have power as a pureblood, therefore he can create and command a Soulanimal, a gryphon called Anyuu.

Personality: He can be really childish and naïve, but also has calm and caring sides. Anything important for him will be protected with his life. Taté somehow struggles to find his own personality as he finds himself unable to bear any conflict and loves peace. He tries to make everyone happy and looses himself between other's problems. From time to time he just dissapeares and wishes to be left alone; he meditates alot.

Story: His mother barely recognized him as her child; she had been force bred with a Daccardo stallion to produce a colourful offspring that could be used for shows at the circus. Taté's mother was getting old and therefore the director has decided to replace the mare with her own foal. Unfortunately, Hurricane didn't turn out to be as sensitive and eager as his mother Maraya, he would refuse to co-operate when they tried to teach him tricks. Taté was abadoned and left at the carriage horses's stable, where he found his foster mother, Zitkala. This mare taught him much about the outside world where she originally came from. Hurricane's dreams were filled with wide yellow meadow's of the Sioux lands and the friendly natives wielding horses with care. Zitkala was the one who gave Hurricane his nickname, she wanted the two of them to be always connected, therefore by naming him Taté, which means "wind" in old Lakota, she matched her own name, as Zitkala means "bird". 
The day came that Taté was forced to leave the circus, the owner had sold him to a local rarities collector, who paid a fortune to own such a fine young pegasus. Hurricane was about one year old back then, with Zitkala he lost his only friend and mother, he would never see her again and only the amber pendant with enclosed flaxen hair would remind him that she would always remain in his heart. 
At the museum, Taté was accompanied by a rather arrogant old Pegasus, who bathed himself in the glances of humans that would come to watch the horses. Daily routine of standing still did not suit Hurricane, he so wished to be free and breathe the air outside. He refused to admit his fate and tried to break the wooden bars that kept him in place. However, he wasn't strong enough and got beaten cruelly whenever he tried to escape. 
A rather unfortunare incident caused Hurricane's Daccardo powers to activate. It was a rather stormy day and the lightnings lighting up the sky electrified the air. Taté felt restless and tried to escape once more, the owner grabbed a whip and beat Taté on his head. He started to become angry as the horse would not obey and took out a knife to further harm him. Hurricane panicked, his eyes went black and his body started to glow as if thick smog lingered around him. The museum owner ran for his life, but the lightnings struck down on him and he died instantly. 
Out of his mind, Hurricane destroyed everything around him. He killed or injuried various animals that were kept with him at the museum, but which had no way to escape and had to endure his attacks mercilessly. Taté is still haunted by those images, screamings of birds and cats as they sufferd under the electroshocks that were omitted by him. 
Hurricane woke up a few days later, completely lost and confused in an unknown forest. He suddenly felt alone and left behind, this wasn't what he imagined it to be. As the memories slowly came back, the panicked. His fear of himself grew and he did not dare to stay, he just wanted to run and forget that he had destroyed and killed so many.
Months passed, Tatés path brought him through endless mountains, lost ruins and devastated areas of poverty. Humans would run when they saw him, a white ghost with black eyes, haunting and covered in black shadow.
He lost count of the days, forgot the dreams of wide open yellow meadows and fresh air of freedom. He was free but somehow caught in his own powers. He did not know how to deactivate them, but that every single move in the wrong direction would cause destruction and pain to others.
Hurricane seemed to follow an aimless path through the wild, which somehow directly lead him into the Daccardo territories. Back then he did not know that his instinct had led him to be with his kind, however he was totally surprised when a strange horse attacked him, as it is custody with the Daccardos to kill intruders and defend their territory. Fortunately, he was saved by mare named Nevaria, whose calm and soothing glance somehow reminded him of Zitkala's. The mare spend hours trying to explain Hurricane his powers and the Daccardo custody's. She had recognized his potential at first sight, his aura was activated and creating a huge domaine, scaring but also attracting everything inside it. She managed to teach him how to calm down and the stallion finally regained his old state.
Nevaria took him to her own territoy of the Phoenix Daccardo herd, where she integrated him. Taté learned much in those years, however he was still afraid to challenge his powers and master them, he would only watch other Daccardos from afar, admiring their skill and elegance in fighting. Only later he found out that Nevaria`s herd differd from others as they did not attack but only defended their own territory, trying to establish peace. This somehow eased him and he swore an oath to always use his powers for good reasons. He finally gained the courage to train and due to his natural talent soon mastered his element. Nevaria gave him the position of the leading Healer of the Phoenix herd, where he now guards and cares for fellow Daccardos.
