Personality: Taro being the eldest of any known Kagezuchi offspring does not act his age, nor his gender given several genetic conditions. Taro who looks and acts like a teen and is rather proud of his genetic conditions. Whether they were on purpose or not he doesn't care and views himself quiet highly almost too the point of vanity. He's also one willing to take advantage of his appearance and commonly refers too himself as female. Even adopting a feminine name when possible. Against his vanity however Taro is quiet willing to become attached to people in different ways depending on the person. He's even described several people as being rather beautiful without much anger.
Despite childish or self centered appearances Taro is quiet skilled and knowledgeable in his fields, willing to put much on the line for a victory, despite his personality. He also has a deep caring for his family and shows his trust in others that have earned it by considering them family. He however has a fear of needles which has come about due to how often he has been poked by them.
History: One of the first successful test subjects in the Kagezuchi's experiment for solving the potential population crisis coming from years of terrible fighting. Taro used the Kagezuchi's eldest child Natsuki as a starting point, thus she is biologically his mother.
Taro like the rest of Natsuki's successful "children" have a number of defects, something which Hinagiku and Kyo Natsuki's parents and the lead scientists attribute to their use and tampering of the "father's" genetic code. Taro's specific genetic defects are slower aging and his hormones being heavily imbalanced, to the point he is basically sterile and visibly female. None of these signs showed up durng his early childhood while being raised in a lab with the rest of his siblings.
During most of his early life Taro lived a rather care free existence, commonly dumping duties and responsibilities put onto him onto the second brother Ai. More often then not Taro was rambunctious and caused his fair of trouble despite being the older brother to be followed as an example. At the onset of puberty however things became complicated, with their periodic blood tests they could quickly tell something was wrong with the boy.
Despite their tests they were adamant about actually attempting to fix the boy since they weren't entirely sure what was wrong with him. Eventually they traced the issue with his genetics and feared the rest of the Natsuki stock was similarly affected. Never the less Taro had to live on and did so with oddly little affect on his overall personality. After a brief confusion on adjusting to his new life Taro was able to function properly in society despite his own quirks.
After that thanks to home schooling he and the other successful children of Natsuki's were transferred to public schooling. The resulting chaos of releasing Taro into a public school is well documented and presumably actually lowered the potential birth rate of Solaria. Despite pressure from both the lab and Taro's siblings he was a renown bedhop even up to his military enlistment. His younger activities primarily centered around causing havoc with the way his peers perceived him and often teasing people of both genders.
Despite some minor pressure from the media and the lab in the interest of more tests, Taro showed little interest in joining up with the Solarian military. That is until records were released to the children that their 'mother' Natsuki Kagezuchi was joining up out of family interest. Now showing more interest Taro made use of the lab's military simulators and increased his studies. This understandably left little time for bed hopping and upon graduating with some help from the Solarian Lab Taro was admitted into the military academy.
Thankfully he restrained his bed hopping behavior during his training, while his condition left him in limbo on where to assign him formally. Still despite his rather bland military training one day driving by boredom would change Taro's career.
During a training exercise by the Solarian Military and Civilian Intelligence Agencies, Taro intervened after being hit on by one of the greener rookies. Taking the two man team's intelligence and incapacitating the two men, he continued their mission and stole other group's information and or incapacitated them. Taro also evaded identification due to commonly being refereed to as female in any search of the records. At the end of the mission Taro accomplished all the group's mission goals before any of the 'surviving' teams.
When the dust finally settled many of the intelligence agencies were humiliated and wanted Taro punished in some manner, but before anything could be settled the supervisor of the training instead wanted to acquire Taro as an agent. The man was rather impressed that one person could outwit all these other trainees and with little hesitation Taro accepted. Now part of the main Solarian Intelligence Agency, Taro was pulled through additional training which he completed within enough time to be allowed back home for the introduction to the Kagezuchi family.
After getting along rather well with his mother Taro was returned for last minute training and eventually deployed. Oddly enough he was commonly called upon to be part of Natsuki Kagezuchi's missions. Other then that however he served in several ground and space operations both in and out of mobile suits. Taro has also achieved an ace ranking but due to the nature of the missions which they were achieved he's yet to publicly become one.
