Her striking, honey-colored eyes are what really get people intimidated, but are easily changed when her dimples are visible with her smile.

STYLE :

On the day to day basis, she mainly sticks with plain looking pleated skirts and plain shirts, or whatever her mother gave her. When she would sneak out, however, she would wear fitted pants and a top that resembles that of a Tang suit (but isn't actually a Tang suit).

PERSONALITY :　For being a girl (not to be ist, feminism yay, but because the timeline and especially the standards in china), Tai Lie is extremely intelligent. She is self-taught in many things, such as writing, reading, and self-defense. The thought of remaining ignorant was not very pleasing to her mind. Tai Lie is also very self-sufficient, has been ever since she was a kid. She has always preferred to work independently rather than in groups. She knows how to manage herself without depending on others. Rarely ever will she need help and, even more so, ask for help. She likes to be independent because it's more for the purpose of self protection. Tae Lie notices everything. Somehow, she has the ability to see things without people even knowing it or wouldn't think she would notice. She is very observant and pays close attention to details. The first thing she does when she does when in a new place is to look at everything. At all times, she is aware of her surroundings. Tai Lie always has good intentions, but it never seems that way to others. Most of the time, she does what she does because she knows it is for the greater good. No matter what the task may be, she will always pull through with it if she knows that it will be helpful in the end. She means well and is not as cold-hearted of a person as others make her out to be. She wouldn't back down from a fight, even if the person is twice her size. Tai Lie is also incredibly daring. If she were to be in a faction from divergent she would be in "Dauntless". She is not afraid to break standards. She doesn't give a second thought on anything that could even be potentially harmful. If she is injured, she will still walk around and play regardless of whether it will worsen her condition or not.

In addition to daring, Tai Lie has a strong sense of willpower. When she has a goal in mind, she is determined to follow through with said goal. Sometimes her willful personality can turn into stubbornness. She will follow through with anything at any costs. This can be extremely risky, especially because she is a woman who could be classified as disobedient. Tai Lie has a very stoic stature. She is known to not show much emotions or any signs of weakness. She tries her best to not show any emotions when it comes to being in negative siuations, such as listening to those around her speak lowly of her and her family, being yelled at, or being taunted. This is not to say that she doesn't have any emotions, but she is not very open with her feelings. Tai Lie is one of the most honest people ever. She is very straightforward when she speaks and will not be hesitant with her voice. She doesn't beat around the bush and will always get straight to the point. No matter what the outcome may be, honesty is her best policy. She will be honest regardless of whether or not it will hurt someone's feelings. Tai Lie is extremely self-confident when it comes to her skill set and abilities. She knows that she is very talented and is a quick learner when it comes to practically anything. One might say that she is overly confident about her abilities. She shows excessive pride in her capabilities and definitely will brag about how talented she is if someone were to ask. Tai Lie, being the athletic junkie she is, is extremely competitive when it comes to just about anything. She often likes to make a competition out of anything whether it be getting from one place to another or seeing who could stay up the latest. She is also quite the sore loser and is easily angered this way. You'll often hear her say "I won" even though no one was competing with her.

Tai Lie is an extremely rebellious character, has been ever since she was a kid. She will defy anyone if she so pleases, no matter what the consequences are. She's not one to follow "authority" and their rules. Being extremely stubborn, she will not follow orders (that she doesn't like) just because a person has a higher social class status. Tai Lie is also not very "ladylike". At times, she can seem a bit uncivilized or unsophisticated. Sometimes she will completely forget about the existence of manners and being ladylike. She hates being in "boring places" with "boring, rich people that laugh like they have snot up their nose". Tai Lie is troublingly asocial. She tries to avoid all human interactions and contact as much as possible and keep it to a low minimum per day. She prefers to rid herself of attention, if possible. She knows that people talk about her and she would prefer to just not acknowledge their existence. She'd much rather blend in with the shadows where she believes she performs at her best. At times, she will have what she likes to call "off days" where she will do her best to avoid all interactions with human beings whatsoever. When she has her "off days", She is more in her head than in reality and prefers to have her alone time. Despite being the solitary person she is, Tai Lie will not be afraid to start an argument despite the area she is in. She is quick to start arguments and is quite the hot-head. She acts too much on her pride and will be eager to have a fist-fight if someone wants it. Tai Lie does not give her trust easily. She does not rely on others much and will always be hesitant on who to interact with. No matter what type of situation she is in, it could be a life or death situation, she will never trust a stranger on the spot. If her trust is ever broken, it's practically impossible to get it back.

THE PAST :　Tai Lie's family has always lived in poverty. Even her parents' parents lived in poverty. Never once leaving Yunnan, the Tao family was well established and very well-known. Her father's side of the family have been known to be exceptionally good in the pottery business for generations. They have also been known for having at least one male descendant from each generation enlist in the army. Her mother's side of the family weren't as well known. They mainly came from the slums of Yunnan, making money any way that they could. Her mother met her father when he was sent by his parents to buy a quilt made by her family. It was love at first sight and the two became infatuated with each other. Thankfully, both families were on good terms and were accepting of their bond.

Tai Lie's father was ecstatic to know he would be a father and was really hoping for a son. Like really hoping. He was extremely devastated when Tai Lie was born because the baby turned out to be a girl. Her father was only caring towards the baby because it was their first and only child at the time. He was not opposed to having a girl, but certainly did not favor having one. Immediately after her mother was feeling better, they tried again in hopes of having a boy. Their second child did end up being a boy and her parents, more specifcally her father, were glad. Once Tai Lie's brother was born, all of her father's love and attention went towards the youngest of the family. She became just another girl in her father's life; thus, she was extremely close with her mother.

With hopes of getting her father's attention, Tai Lie would be adventurous
