can you tell us about taric's family ( biological and / or who he considers found family ) and his relationship with them ?
i’ve actually briefly explained this last year , but of course it’s been deleted to be revamped obviously . i’ll use this as an excuse to expand upon .
given the lack of explanation regarding taric’s pre - aspect life in demacia , all we know is that taric was born & raised there , doesn’t affiliate with a high noble house , & was associated with the illustrious crownguard family [ ; ] by being friends with the then child garen crownguard . became a knight then later thrusted into the rank as a dauntless vanguard .
taric is a demacian born citizen , with parents who had background in militant service , but favored kings & banners with revered respect . taric was naturally taught under this & expected to grow up & carry on the demacian tradition . i would like to think being affiliated with the crownguard family helped taric boost his morale in becoming a knight in the first place . garen was his biggest supporter in that aspect . with the appropriate research , the title of a knight was typically bestowed upon young men from noble families & houses , as it was seen as a prestigious & honorable position to serve the king .
taric wasn’t among the latter of having a noble family / name . he was born & raised by parents that equally admired the arts & did as what a demacian should . there were exceptions to being knighted , & in some cases , ‘ commoners ‘ who showed exceptional bravery or skill in combat were also knighted [ ; ] taric was involved with garen at a very young age , being taken cared of even by garen’s noble - foster mother until the age of seven . you can imagine how proud his parents were upon the news garen helped levy taric to a place of high ranking , just being recognized by his strength alone .
taric very much considers the crownguard house as his found family [ ; ] they helped his own family when their services were recognized . however , this goes down the drain the day garen cuts off their friendship & condemns him to climb a treacherous mountain . taric still keeps in contact with his original biological parents , though through the stars , whereas he can watch from his place upon the mountain .
taric is posted to protect the world & everything in it , so in a way , you can technically say he’s found family in the world & life itself . but emotionally , it still lies with the crownguards & even the targonian aspect that uses him as a vessel .
