Taurus is a New Olympian, and New Olympus' Chief of Security.
History
Taurus is descended from the original Minotaur who was slain by Theseus, and is himself a minotaur, as was his father, who preceded him as Chief of Security, and who was murdered by Proteus. Because of his family history, Taurus was suspicious towards humans, and so when Elisa came to New Olympus on the Avalon World Tour, received her hostilely, even incarcerating her to prevent her presence from causing riots among the New Olympians.
When Proteus, disguised as Goliath, broke Elisa out, Taurus went in pursuit of them to recapture them. He finally cornered them at the Columnadium, where he defeated Proteus, and returned him to prison. Astonished that Elisa chose to remain in New Olympus to help capture the villainous shape-shifter rather than escape, he conceded that perhaps not all humans were evil, and let her leave the island with her friends.
Later on, he will be part of the New Olympian embassy to the outside world.
Real World History
Taurus' name comes from the Greek word for "bull", made particularly familiar as the name of the second constellation of the Zodiac.
